abstract = {In this field experiment, we document success with the use of reward programs— a marketing mix well tested in for-profit environments—as a public policy tool to shift rush-hour subway travel rides to off-peak periods. 475 regular rush-hour sub- way commuters are randomized to either the control group or one of four 10-week programs that reward pre-peak travel with credits. Using riders' smart travel cards, we obtain records on more than 80,000 morning trips over a year, span- ning before, during, and after the reward period. Using a difference-in-differences model, we find that a full fare rebate that averaged 1.6 Singapore (≈ 1.2 U.S.) dollars per trip shifted 4.1{\%} of the trips to at least 30 minutes earlier, which contributed to easing overcrowding. During the reward period, a linear reward program—defined as one in which the reward per trip stays constant, even if commuters make more early trips—is less effective in encouraging shifts than a nonlinear program with additional bonuses. However, the relative effect sizes reverse after the discontinuation of monetary rewards, which is consistent with the hypothesis that the nonlinear reward program with additional bonuses may “crowd out” commuters' intrinsic motivation to travel off-peak. Our experimental results offer important insights for the redesign of Singapore's nationwide Travel Smart Rewards Program. JEL:},

abstract = {The development of more realistic choice experiments has taken on board a number of suggestions in the broader hypothetical bias literature. One issue, in particular, is the increasing interest in finding ways to bridge the gap between the stated choice response and real choosing, as a way of increasing the confidence with which an individual would hypothetically purchase or use an alternative that is actually chosen in the choice experiment. In this paper we investigate the relationship between the respondent's response to a certainty question, defined on a 1-10 scale of surety, and features of the choice experiment that may have a bearing on the degree of confidence that can be placed on the stated choice, controlling for exogenous effects such as socioeconomic characteristics and attitudes to vehicle emissions. The focus on response certainty in this paper is as an external validity test. We find, using a generalised ordered logit model, compelling evidence that the number of acceptable alternatives and hence associated levels of attributes, together with the contrast of attribute levels of each designed alternative relative to an experienced status quo (or reference) alternative, play an important role in establishing certainty of response in a real market. The evidence should be taken on board in the future design of more realistic choice experiments.},

abstract = {Implementing effective travel demand management measures provides an opportunity to reduce transport dependence on the private car. There is growing acknowledgement that the strategy of implementing transit benefits may boost transit ridership and reduce personal vehicle use. However, these effects have received little attention in the literature so its impacts on travel behavior have hardly ever been quantified. This research contributes to the understanding of this issue by examining the relationship between commuter benefits and mode choice for commuting trips in the states of New York and New Jersey. Based on the Regional Household Travel Survey conducted by the New York Metropolitan Transportation Council and North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority, the authors adopted a multinomial logit model to identify the extent to which transport benefits to employees –including public transport-related, private transport-related and benefits for walking and cycling– promote changes in commuters´ modal split. The analysis shows that commuter benefits play a significant role in explaining observed travel patterns. This result confirms that promoting these types of measures is an effective policy to encourage the use of public transport modes, thus increasing efficiency and sustainability in daily mobility patterns},

abstract = {Within the broad area of probabilistic modelling of individual discrete choice, we develop three strands of discussion. First, we outline a theoretical framework for the modelling of individual discrete choice under risk, distinguishing between three specific sources of randomness; in preference orderings, in outcomes, and in attribute tastes. Second, we apply this theoretical modelling framework to the domain of journey time risk (or ‘reliability'), a subject which has acquired prominence in the transportation policies of many countries. Third, we apply the modelling framework empirically, based upon a Stated Preference experiment of 2395 rail travellers choosing between alternative journeys embodying different levels of journey time risk. Across the sample of travellers, we estimate a mean value of scheduled journey time of 25.62pence/min, against a median of 18.55pence/min. We further estimate a mean ‘reliability ratio' (ratio of the value of standard deviation of journey time to the value of scheduled journey time) of 2.07, against a median of 0.85. The properties of the distribution of the reliability ratio suggest a predominant behaviour of aversion to journey time risk.},

We use these data and data from the main survey to analyse properties of the different data collection methods. One conclusion is that the Internet gives less random error in the SC data. On the other hand, the response rate drops when the Internet is the only response and recruiting mode. A mixed mode survey, where the Internet is the primary method but where respondents are knowingly subject to a telephone follow up survey, is found to give substantially higher Internet response rates. If the telephone follow-up does not include SC questions, the value of time result will still be biased.

abstract = {Contrary to the usual assumption of fixed, well-defined and context independent preferences, individuals are likely to approach a choice task using rules and heuristics that are dependent on the choice environment. More specifically, heuristics that are defined by the local choice context, such as the gains or losses of an attribute value relative to the other attributes, seem to matter significantly. Recent empirical findings also demonstrate that previous choices made by respondents and previous choice tasks shown to respondents can affect the current choice outcome, indicating a form of inter-dependence across choice sets. This paper reviews some of the key findings about heuristics and decision rules across the psychology, marketing, transport and environmental disciplines. Using experimental data in the context of a proposed toll road, we find that for certain components of the time and cost attributes, allowing for non-linearity and for referencing to the least desired attribute level in the local choice set offers improvement over the standard linear-in-the-attributes and linear-in-the-parameters specification. Other heuristics, including the majority of confirming dimensions and reference point revision can also be embedded into the model. An alternative approach to identifying and weighting multiple heuristics in a utility function by means of a logit-type specification for the weights is then introduced. While acknowledging the need for more work in this area, we suggest that such an approach may be a useful way of testing what happens when multiple heuristics are “mixed” in the model.},

abstract = {This paper reports on the experimental design process and considerations of a choice experiment conducted in collaboration with farmers in northern Australia. The purpose of the research is to inform the design of effective and efficient payments-for-ecosystem services schemes to safeguard north Australia's biodiversity values. It promotes the contractual provision of biodiversity conservation services by farmers, in particular pastoralists operating in Australia's tropical savannas. The paper focuses on the discrete choice experimental (DCE) aspects. The DCE is employed to estimate farmers' preference heterogeneity for supplying ecosystem services, specifically their willingness to accept remuneration for the on-farm conservation of biodiversity, based on potential programme attributes. The design of the choice experiment draws on best practice standards (Hoyos, 2010), a recognition of the benefits of embedding design in a consultative process (Klojgaard et al., 2012) and recent advances in accounting for response certainty (Brouwer et al., 2010; Hensher et al., 2012). DCE design decisions relating to attribute selection, attribute levels, alternatives and choice tasks are explained based on literature, focus group discussions, expert input and an iterative process of Bayesian D-efficient DCE design. Additional design aspects include measuring choice certainty and stated attribute attendance, embedding the DCE within a discrete-continuous approach, capturing relevant respondent-related attributes with socio-economic-psychological questions and scales, and devising appropriate data collection logistics.},

abstract = {Consumers' privacy concerns remain the primary barrier for future growth of e-commerce. Research to date has so far considered privacy concerns either as an independent variable to explore consumers' actual (or stated) behavioural intentions (e.g. the decision to purchase goods online) or as dependent variable explained through a number of antecedents (e.g. privacy awareness). However, there has not been a formal link across antecedents, latent constructs and (stated) behavioural intentions. This study establishes this link through a stated choice experiment, and an integrated latent variable and choice model. The proposed approach simultaneously explains individuals' perceptions of privacy and general caution through observed individual characteristics and explores how these perceptions, in the form of latent constructs, may be associated with consumers' decisions to engage with an online transaction. The stated choice experiment is designed to collect consumers' choices across online retailers, a conventional store and an opt-out option in which online retailers are presented with varying levels of personal-information requirements. The data was collected come from over 500 respondents representing the online-user population in the UK. Model estimation results show that the higher an individual's privacy concern, general caution and technical protection, the less likely a consumer is to purchase a product online. In a joint model, the privacy concern variable is found to outweigh the effect of general caution and technical protection. Finally, consumers with higher levels of general caution are more sensitive towards an online retailer that shares their personal data with third parties.},

abstract = {License-plate-based driving restrictions are among the highest profile policies for local governments to address congestion and air pollution. Cities as varied as Sao Paulo, Paris, Tianjin, and New Delhi have enacted temporary or permanent restrictions to improve local air quality. Using household travel survey data and a research design based on the abrupt shift in how the policy applies to 10-year-old vs. 9-year-old vehicles, we evaluate the impact of Hoy No Circula, one of the earliest and most studied driving restrictions, in Mexico City. In line with previous studies, we find that Hoy No Circula has done little to reduce overall vehicle travel, but we reject the prevailing theory that its lack of success is due to perverse incentives for households to buy second cars. Instead, we highlight the range of other, less costly ways that people adjust behavior to avoid the restrictions. Although no single behavior dominates, most households — particularly those that own older, higher-polluting vehicles — do not use their car every weekday regardless of the restriction. As a result, it is relatively easy to shuffle travel from restricted days to unrestricted days and thus avoid the ban. Shuffling travel days is less costly, more immediately available, and far simpler for most households than buying a second car.},

ABSTRACT This paper summarizes a new active traffic management methodology developed and deployed in New York City. The design, development and implementation of the methodology are driven by the availability of extensive real-time travel time data, the upgraded ITS infrastructure and the need of a reliable and robust real-time signal control system for congestion management in a complex urban traffic environment. The primary objective is to maintain mobility in the subject control zone by preserving capacity and avoiding breakdown within the zone. To that end, multi-regime adaptive signal control strategies, ranging from strategically regulating traffic demand to balancing queue-storage ratio at critical intersections, work in concert to proactively manage congestion. Large-scale real-time travel time data (nearly 1 million records of individual trips per day) are utilized for effective control. This renders the system perhaps the first large-scale active traffic management framework that uses travel-time based adaptive control for congestion management in an urban grid network. In addition to running autonomously, a new mode of operator-in-the-loop allows the operators to interact with important signal timing decisions when the traffic pattern changes abruptly or switch of control policies is involved. The system has been deployed in a congested urban central business district in Manhattan, New York City. The initial deployment, called " Midtown-in-Motion " , includes a core 110 square block zone of Midtown Manhattan, from 2 nd Avenue to 6 th Avenue, and from 42 nd to 57 th Streets. New expansion is currently underway, covering more than 270 square blocks of Midtown Manhattan, from 1 st to 9 th Avenue, and from 42th to 57 th Street.

abstract = {As the market penetration of mobile information and communication technologies (ICT) continues to grow, visitor feedback, such as reviews left online for locations or sites visited, will continue to grow in parallel at finer temporal and geographic scales. This growth in data opens up the opportunity for travel demand analysts to assess location attractiveness based on online reviews and subsequently inform destination choice models. In geography and urban planning, the construct of Sense of Place (SOP) has emerged as an indicator for visitor association or connection with a place or site. An opportunity exists for examining SOP through the lens of text-mining, i.e., extracting information from online text reviews and forming digital narratives of place. Several websites devoted towards sharing feedback on experiences and overall perceptions currently exist, including Yelp, TripAdvisor. Using text-mining methods, SOP related topics and issues may potentially emerge from online reviews, which were previously unidentified, serving as a basis for subsequent analysis. The results from this study indicate that these emerging topics/terms require more contextual information and interpretation. As a standalone method, text-mining is insufficient for identifying SOP related topics, given the complexity of dimensions characterizing SOP. Additionally, the results suggest that timing and seasonality play an important role in visitors' evaluation of a site, which have received less attention in the literature. With respect to text-mining as a methodology to gain insights into SOP and supplement existing travel analysis, several barriers exist, including interpretation of topics from topic models. Nonetheless, these approaches are promising, and require more research to guide practical implementation for the purpose of inferring SOP from online text reviews and integrating them within existing travel analysis approaches.},

The 3 values of travel time (VOT) have long been an integral part of the appraisal of transport projects. 4 Recently some transport planners are incorporating the value of travel time reliability (VOR) as 5 well. This research used data generated by automated vehicle identification (AVI) sensors from 6 Katy Freeway travelers to estimate VOT and VOR based on revealed preferences of these 7 travelers. Lane choice models were developed to examine the factors influencing travelers' lane 8 choice decisions in different traffic conditions and estimate their value of travel time. Models 9 with two independent variables: travel time and toll resulted in an estimated value of travel time 10 from {\$}1.96/hour to {\$}8.06/hour for all trips on a monthly basis. The research could not draw any 11 conclusion whether the travel time reliability had any impact on travelers' lane choice decisions. 12 The percentage of ML trips was higher for the travelers who traveled the whole length of the 13 MLs/GPLs compared to travelers who traveled only a part of the GPLs/MLs. This might be the 14 result of easier accessibility at end of the MLs compared to that of mid points.},

abstract = {Millennials, a demographic cohort born in the last two decades of the 20th 2 century, are reported to adopt information and communication technologies (ICTs) in their everyday lives, including travel, to a greater extent than older generations. As ICT-driven travel-based multitasking influences travelers' experience and satisfaction in various ways, Millennials are expected to be affected at a greater scale. Still, to the authors' knowledge, no previous studies have specifically focused on the impact of travel multitasking on travel behavior and the value of travel time savings (VOTTS) of young adults. To address this gap, the authors use an original dataset collected among Northern California commuters (N=2216) to analyze the magnitude and significance of individual and household-level factors affecting commute mode choice. The authors estimate a revealed preference mode choice model and investigate the differences between Millennials and older adults in the sample. Compared to Non-Millennials, the mode choice of Millennials is found to be less affected by socio-economic characteristics and more strongly influenced by the activities performed while traveling. Young adults are found to have lower VOTTS for both in-vehicle and out-of-vehicle travel time, after controlling for personal attitudes and the propensity to multitask. This study contributes to better understanding the commuting behavior of Millennials, and the factors affecting it, a topic of interest to transportation researchers, planners, and practitioners.},

abstract = {Accessibility, the ease of reaching destinations, is increasingly seen as a complimentary and in some cases alternative to the mobility oriented planning paradigm, as it allows capturing the complex interactions between land use and transportation systems while providing a social perspective on transportation planning. However, although accessibility has been extensively researched in the last decades, it is still largely marginalized in transportation planning practice. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to critically assess how accessibility is incorporated into metropolitan transportation plans and translated into performance indicators around the world, to ultimately derive policy recommendations. This research assesses 32 recent metropolitan transport plans from North America, Europe, Australia and Asia with respect to their goals, objectives and performance indicators. The results suggest that there is a trend toward a greater integration of accessibility objectives in transport plans, yet few plans have accessibility-based indicators that can guide their decision-making processes. Our findings show that in order to foster accessibility-based approaches to transportation planning, plans need to have clearly defined accessibility goals with a distinction between accessibility and mobility. Furthermore, multi-criteria analysis approaches including accessibility indicators need to guide the decision-making process. This study contributes to a greater understanding of the challenges and successes associated with implementing accessibility in transport planning.},

Researchers in the safety field have employed ordered and unordered frameworks for examining the various factors influencing injury severity. The objective of the current study is to investigate the performance of the ordered and unordered response frameworks at a fundamental level. Towards this end, we undertake a comparison of the alternative frameworks by estimating ordered and unordered response models using data generated through ordered, unordered data and a combination of ordered and unordered data generation processes. We also examine the influence of aggregate sample shares on the appropriateness of the modeling framework. Rather than be limited by the aggregate sample shares in an empirical dataset, simulation allows us to explore the influence of a broad spectrum of sample shares on the performance of ordered and unordered frameworks. We also extend the data generation process based analysis to under reported data and compare the performance of the ordered and unordered response frameworks. Finally, based on these simulation exercises, we provide a discussion of the merits of the different approaches. The results clearly highlight the emergence of the generalized ordered logit model as a true equivalent ordered response model to the multinomial logit model for ordinal discrete variables. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {Urban expressways serve as the backbone of road traffic system in metropolitan cities. In order to increase the capacity of urban expressways in Shanghai, several cross-section reconstruction projects (the cross-section width remained the same) took place in the past 10 years. Site investigations show that the maximum lane width is 4.05m and the minimum is only 2.73m. To examine the safety influence of lane width on urban expressway, crash data and the corresponding traffic flow data from 2010 to 2013 were extracted from Shanghai Expressway Surveillance System for cross-sectional study. Negative binominal model (NB) was selected as the function form of the predicted crash frequency. Three datasets corresponding to undersized (average lane width ≤ 3.25m), standard-sized (average lane width {\~{}} 3.45m), and oversized lanes (average lane width ≥ 3.75m) were collected for the development of crash modification factors (CMFs). Since lane width might exert different influence to different type of crash, different models were established by involved-vehicle number (two-vehicle crash and multi-vehicle crash) and traffic condition (congested-flow crash and non-congested-flow crash), and CMFs were developed respectively. The results showed that standard-sized lanes experienced the lowest crash frequency in all kind of crash. Specifically, the crash frequency of undersized lanes and oversized lanes would increase 190{\%} and 134{\%} compared with standard-sized lanes in total crash.},

Though the literature comes up with some means to calibrate the estimated preferences ex-post, this is far from being unproblematic and uncontroversial. In this paper we test whether a short ex-ante entreaty, presented to respondents in a health economic stated preference survey, can effectively reduce the number of protest zero bids. We first of all find that the protest reduction entreaty significantly reduces the number of protest zero bids in the survey. Furthermore, the results indicate that marginal demand for the individual attributes as well as general preferences do not seem to be influenced by the protest reduction entreaty. Compared to the traditional ex-post calibration of protest zero bids in stated preference surveys, these results suggest that an ex-ante reduction in protest zero bids by using a simple and short entreaty is possible without introducing other types of biases in the survey.},

abstract = {Equity has been a major concern of public transport provision and is required by legislation in many countries. Several approaches measure equity in transit supply however none produce a simple system-wide measure of equity performance. A new approach is presented using Lorenz curves to measure the relative supply of transit to the population. Gini coefficients provide a single measure of overall equity using this method. A system-wide assessment of overall transit supply to the population in Melbourne, Australia shows that 70{\%} of the population shares only 19{\%} of the supply (Gini coefficient = .68). When employment is also taken into account, the situation is not much different; 70{\%} of jobs and population share 23{\%} of service (G= .62). In order to gain some understanding of vertical equity, the transit supply was compared between different age, income and vehicle ownership groups. There is some evidence of higher supply for youth and low-income groups in inner Melbourne, and in all parts of Melbourne no-vehicle households lived in areas of higher transit supply. Overall it is unclear how " fair" these distributions are compared to equity in other cities since this is the first time this method has been undertaken. Projects using similar approaches should provide a good basis for establishing comparative equity between cities. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The paper presents an investigation on park-and-ride (P{\&}R) access station choices of cross-2 regional commuter in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). Data from a household 3 travel survey conducted in 2006 in the GTHA is used for empirical investigation. The household 4 travel survey data is supplemented by data from transit service operators regarding P{\&}R station 5 locations, parking lot capacities, parking costs, surrounding land use, and station amenities. 6 Three groups of park-and-ride users are defined herein: individuals who have only local transit 7 (TTC Subway) stations within a reasonable reach, individuals with only regional transit (GO 8 Rail) stations within reach, and individuals who have both GO Rail and TTC Subway stations 9 within reach. Different model structures and specifications are tested and three discrete choice 10 models are estimated. Empirical models reveal that access distance and the relative station 11 direction (toward the work place) are the primary factors affecting transit station choice for park-12 and-ride options. However, between station distance and relative station direction, commuters 13 are more sensitive to changes in station access distance than to changes in the relative station 14 direction from their households. In addition, the empirical models reveal that local transit park-15 and-ride users are less sensitive to access distance than regional transit park-and-ride users. The 16 results of this investigation can be useful in future transit station design projects in order to 17 attract more commuters to use park-and-ride.},

abstract = {Approx. 5950 words + 5 Tables + 1 Figure = 7450 words Abstract Stress is an immense problem in modern society, as about half of the occupational illnesses are directly or indirectly related to it. The work of a bus driver is typically associated with high stress levels which negatively influence individual well-being as well as workforce management. The current study examines the impact of newly-proposed working conditions on bus drivers' occupational stress by monitoring heart rate and a mental workload questionnaire in operational driving conditions. The main determinants of stress levels were identified through multiple regression analysis. The results indicate that bus drivers experienced considerably lower stress levels under a new control strategy that shifts the performance objective from schedule adherence to service regularity. Higher stress levels were recorded during extreme weather conditions, peak hours and among inexperienced drivers. The measurements were performed with low-cost sports devices that can easily be used by practitioners.},

abstract = {Induced traffic could be an important consideration for the economic cost-benefit analysis of 3 road paving projects. However, road paving projects generally do not justify the data collection 4 required to estimate the induced traffic. International evidence is very scarce and consists of 5 elasticities that should be applied to the change in origin-destination generalized costs produced 6 by the road paving; unfortunately these data are generally not available. This study offers 7 empirical evidence on the traffic induced by road paving projects, considering 91 projects in 8 Chile and biannual traffic count data for the period 1994 – 2010 from the Ministry of Public 9 Works' National Census Plan. Elasticities for induced traffic have been estimated with respect 10 to the changes to the generalized cost of trips over the paved road section, for light vehicles and 11 buses. Overall the rate of induction of traffic as a result of road paving was estimated at 12 approximately 10{\%} for passenger vehicles. In the case of heavy vehicles the rate of induced 13 traffic was insignificantly different from zero with a best estimate of approximately 3{\%}. The 14 results of this study will inform the guidelines for economic evaluation of road paving projects in 15 the context of the National Investment System of the Ministry of Social Development of the 16 Government of Chile. These results help to fill a gap in the international evidence and provide 17 elasticity estimates for induced traffic due to road paving projects that are readily applicable with 18 available data.},

abstract = {An approach to stated choice design is presented which takes into account the characteristics of real stated choice data, including nontrading responses and the impact they can have on value of time estimates. A meta-analysis of individual participant data from 51 stated choice surveys was undertaken to develop models of how characteristics of stated choice designs affect the proportions of nontraders and the precision of value of time estimates. The modelling work confirmed that there is a tension between increasing the range of boundary values of time to be tested, which reduces nontrading, and reducing the intervals between adjacent boundary values of time, which increases the precision of the value of time estimate. An optimization model was developed to find the parameter values for a distribution of boundary values of time that would maximize the expected precision of a future value of time estimate, given a type of distribution and subject to a series of restrictions. The lognormal distribution was found to work well and the non-linear optimization problem could be quickly solved using a standard spreadsheet optimization tool. The optimization model produces a recommended set of boundary values of time that can be used as the starting point for a future stated choice design. The meta-analysis models can also be used to analyze stated choice designs produced by other means, for instance as a complement to the use of commercial efficient design software.},

abstract = {1 In this paper we describe the results of a research project that aimed to establish passenger values of crowding in 2 public transport services in the Paris region. Qualitative research, stated preference experiments and passenger 3 counts and surveys have been conducted to obtain such values. A simple method was developed to quantify the 4 passenger benefits of specific public transport projects aiming to reduce crowding on existing lines. This method 5 was applied in a case study to the RER line E extension project. 6 7 With regard to the value of crowding, our research indicated that the perceived disutility of crowding 8 can be more accurately described as a constant disutility per trip than as a travel time multiplier. However, for 9 ease of application often the multiplier formulation is preferred. When we expressed the value of crowding as a 10 travel time multiplier, we obtained values ranging from 1.0 when all passengers can be seated to 1.7 for standing 11 bus passengers when the vehicles reach their maximum capacity. Also for seated passengers multipliers well 12 above 1.0 were observed for (highly) congested vehicles (maximum value: 1.5 for bus passengers). 13 14 We applied these values in a case study, where we estimated the effects of an extension of the regional 15 rail line RER E in western direction, partially running parallel to the existing RER line A. This extension would 16 reduce the current (very) high crowding levels on the RER A and B lines to more moderate levels, generating 17 benefits of about 23 million Euros per year. 18 19 20},

abstract = {This study examined if travelers are using the new Katy Freeway managed lanes (MLs) in Houston as they stated that they would in their responses to a previous survey conducted before the MLs opened, in 2008. To check the veracity of their intended behaviors a new stated preference survey was given to Houston's Katy Freeway travelers in 2010. The 2010 survey yielded 869 responses who were also very likely to have been participants in the 2008 survey. Mixed logit models were developed from the 869 survey responses and their value of travel time savings (VTTS) were compared with the 2008 survey estimates. The implied mean VTTS based on the 2010 survey was found to be about 48 percent of the sample mean hourly wage rate, similar to values estimated using the 2008 surveys. The value of travel time reliability was estimated as 56 percent of the sample mean hourly wage rate. Combining both the value of time plus the value of reliability for these travelers results in a combined value of {\$}61/hour. This is close to the amount travelers are valuing their travel time for their actual recent trips on the Katy Freeway (an average of {\$}51/hour). Thus it appears that travelers are factoring in (consciously or subconsciously) some additional value for the MLs' reliability when choosing to use the managed lanes. The percentage of travelers from the 2010 survey who actually used the MLs was similar to the percentage of 2008 survey respondents who indicated they would definitely or might use MLs, once they opened. These findings suggest that travelers are actually using and paying for MLs much as they said they would. The results also suggest that the maximum willingness to pay for travel did not change much from pre- and post- opening of the MLs.},

abstract = {The aim of this paper is to develop a methodological framework for the incorporation of social interaction effects into choice models. The developed method provides insights for modeling the effect of social interaction on the formation of psychological factors (latent variables) and on the decision-making process. The assumption is based on the fact that the way the decision maker anticipates and processes the information regarding the behavior and the choices exhibited in her/his social environment, affects her/his attitudes and perceptions, which in turn affect her/his choices. The proposed method integrates choice models with decision makers' psychological factors and latent social interaction. The model structure is simultaneously estimated providing an improvement over sequential methods as it provides consistent and efficient estimates of the parameters. The methodology is tested within the context of a household aiming to identify the social interaction effects between teenagers and their parents regarding walking-loving behavior and then the effect of this on mode to school choice behavior. The sample consists of 9,714 participants aged from 12 to 18 years old, representing 21 {\%} of the adolescent population of Cyprus. The findings from the case study indicate that if the teenagers anticipate that their parents are walking lovers, then this increases the probability of teenagers to be walking-lovers too and in turn to choose walking to school. Generally, the findings from the application result in: (a) improvements in the explanatory power of choice models, (b) latent variables that are statistically significant, and (c) a real-world behavioral representation that includes the social interaction effect.},

This is in part a recognition that we need to focus on establishing the amount, ex ante, that individuals are willing to pay to reduce the risk of exposure to circumstances that might lead to death or degree of injury in the road environment. This study sets out a framework in which to identify the degree of preference heterogeneity in WTP of pedestrians to avoid being killed or injured. A stated choice experiment approach is developed. The empirical setting is a choice of walking route for a particular trip that a sample of pedestrians periodically undertakes in Australia. Mixed logit models are estimated to obtain the marginal (dis)utilities associated with each influence on the choice amongst the attribute packages offered in the stated choice scenarios. These conditional estimates are used to obtain the WTP distributions for fatality and classes of injury avoidance, which are then aggregated to obtain estimates for pedestrians of the value of risk reduction (VRR).},

The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) launched the project in 2011 and adjusted on-street parking meter rates thirteen times over the pilot period. The SFMTA's evaluation of the pilot in 2014 showed that demand-responsive pricing yields many benefits including improved parking availability and reductions in drivers circling for parking. The SFMTA relied on two new technologies to implement SFpark: (1) parking sensors that detect the presence of vehicles in parking spaces and measure parking occupancy, and (2) smart parking meters that accommodate multiple meter rates and can communicate payments and configurations wirelessly with back-end data management systems. However, the parking sensors used for the SFpark pilot have met their expected lifespan and have been deactivated. While San Francisco and many other cities are installing smart parking meters, the widespread adoption of parking sensors is uncertain. Measuring parking occupancy is essential to demand-responsive pricing. In order to continue adjusting on-street meter rates without sensors, SFMTA staff used historical data from parking sensors and smart meters to develop a model to estimate parking occupancy using meter payment data. This approach estimates parking occupancy accurately enough to support periodic and highly granular demand-responsive price adjustments. Other cities can use this approach to pursue demand-responsive pricing and achieve its benefits without the use and expense of parking sensors.},

abstract = {From numerous field observations at two expressway merge bottlenecks, the paper identifies and studies a 3 peculiar lane changing behavior, multistep approaching lane changing (MALC), at these bottlenecks. The characteristics of and detailed maneuvers in the MALC process are first described and compared with other three traditional lane changing behaviors (normal, cooperative and forced lane changing). Next, descriptive parameters such as lane-changing duration time, velocity and affected vehicle numbers from 132 sets of vehicle trajectory data collected at two merge bottlenecks in Shanghai, China are investigated and analyzed during the so-called trans-line ride (TLR) period. Significant differences are found between MALC and the traditional lane changing behaviors: MALC takes longer to complete (10s on average), involves lower lane 10 changing velocity (15km/h on average during TLR period) and affects more vehicles (6 vehicles on average). As such, MALC poses more disruptive influences on the traffic flow, and could explain the occurrences of rapid capacity drop at expressway merge bottlenecks.},

abstract = {1 2 Planning and transportation professionals are promoting a variety of more sustainable travel 3 alternatives, such as public transit usage, walking and cycling, to provide individuals a variety of 4 affordable transportation options and counter the negative effects associated with widespread car 5 use. In their traditional form, these alternative transport modes do not always provide the 6 flexibility or convenience the car offers; therefore, innovative solutions have recently been 7 developed to allow active and public transport to better compete with the car. The present paper 8 will focus on one of those innovations, namely the shared bicycle system. This new cycling 9 option is adopted by a growing number of cities or regions throughout the world, yet little is 10 known about the users of the systems and their motivations. A survey was conducted in 11 Montr{\'{e}}al, Canada in the summer 2010 to determine the factors encouraging individuals to use 12 the system and the elements influencing the frequency of use. The factor that was found to have 13 the greatest impact on the likelihood of using a shared bicycle system is the proximity of home to 14 docking stations. Owning a yearly shared bicycle membership was associated with users riding 15 shared bicycles 15 additional times per year. Respondents have also shown that they value 16 shared bicycle's " trendy " status and the role it can play in bicycle theft prevention. In order to 17 maximize the potential of shared bicycle systems, it is recommended to increase the number of 18 docking stations in residential neighborhoods, and to put the emphasis of advertizing campaigns 19 on the popularity of shared bicycle and its role in theft prevention. 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 Keywords: bicycle sharing – BIXI – motivators – deterrents – frequency of use 28 29 30 31 32 33 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

@article{Yoh2012,
abstract = {Public transit systems differ from many other government enterprises in that they charge a fee, or fare, in much the way that private businesses charge for their services. Transit fares are typically of two sorts: flat or differentiated. For decades transportation scholars have argued in favor of flexible, differentiated transit fares, which vary by mode, distance, and/or time-of-day to reflect differences in the marginal costs of service provision (Cervero and Wachs 1982; Cervero 1981; Hodge 1995). Such fare policies, researchers contend, could greatly increase the efficiency, efficacy, and equity of transit service. Research on transit costs suggests that short, off-peak trips tend to be relatively inexpensive to provide, while longer, peak-period trips are more expensive (Taylor, Garrett, and Iseki 2000). Accordingly, varying fares to reflect these differences in costs would encourage passengers to consume more inexpensive-to-serve trips, and be more judicious in consuming more expensive-to-serve trips, thereby increasing the cost-effectiveness of transit service.{\^{A}} Recent technological advances, particularly smart cards, have greatly reduced the operational and administrative obstacles to charging differentiated time- or distance-based fares. However, despite an established body of research on the potential benefits of flexible fares, relatively few transit agencies employ them, and over the past two decades many have actually moved away from variable fare structures and toward simpler fares by dropping zonebased fares. And while many U.S. transit agencies that have adopted smart card technology, very few of these adopting agencies have moved toward variable fares.{\^{A}} The increasingly widespread implementation of smart farecards makes implementing variable pricing far easier and more reliable than in years past. As smart cards become more ubiquitous, will transit systems gradually reverse course and begin implementing differentiated fares? Will political and institutional resistance to variable pricing hold firm, suggesting that implementation was never the principal obstacle? Or have flat fares become so thoroughly inculcated in transit practice that most transit managers are unaware of the now decades old research on the benefits of differentiated fares? This report explores these questions.{\^{A}} To better understand motivations for fare changes and the potential for implementing marginal cost pricing, we reviewed the literature on transit fares and pricing, conducted indepth interviews with California transit officials, and administered a nationwide survey of transit agency CEOs, planners and analysts, and board members on the goals that shape fare policies. Collectively, these interviews and survey find that, with respect to fare policies, transit agencies tend to be reactive to budgetary pressures and reluctant to change fare structures when changing fare levels. Despite this observed lack of strategic thinking with respect to fares, we do see in our survey data some, albeit limited, interest in distance- and time-based fares, especially among agencies that have or soon will introduce smart cards. But any opportunities to move toward differentiated fares created by smartcard adoption are constrained by an industry where simple, flat fares are the norm and were transit managers are risk-averse and seek to minimize public scrutiny and criticism. Smart cards, in other words, are a necessary but not sufficient means of fare innovation in public transit. Beyond this general observation, our interview and survey results collectively suggest three specific findings with respect to transit fare setting:{\^{A}} 1. With respect to fare policies, transit agencies tend to be reactive to budgetary pressures and reluctant to change fare structures when changing fare levels.{\^{A}} Our survey results find that systematic evaluations of fare policies are subject to and often displaced by the immediate needs of an agency{\^{a}}€™s budget. Respondents indicated that the primary consideration for changing fares is budgetary need, implying a focus on near-term responses to fiscal shortfalls in setting fare policies. Changing fare policies to improve farebox recovery ratios, possibly through marginal cost pricing, which research suggests may improve a given agency{\^{a}}€™s fiscal health over the long term received considerably less consideration. Rational (i.e., cost- or criteria-based) fare setting policies are viewed as important, but in practice the setting of transit fares appears to be almost exclusively budget-driven and fare increases are more often than not induced by fiscal crises. Because transit systems depend so heavily on subsidies, large swings in tax revenues {\^{a}}€“ especially during the current, prolonged economic downturn {\^{a}}€“ can make transit budgets volatile. When rising costs and/or cuts in subsidies threaten service, fare increases are often put on the table in conjunction with service cuts {\^{a}}€“ at what some would argue is precisely the wrong time. While economists have long asserted the superiority of cost-based pricing on economic efficiency grounds, agency policy setting driven by near-term budgetary volatility almost certainly limits reflection on and adoption of such strategies.{\^{A}} This finding also suggests that the crisis-induced and budget-driven fare setting processes may not themselves be the problem, but rather are a manifestation of unclear or contradictory goals. Clearly defined and congruent agency goals and objectives allow staff to work toward given objectives, and board members to defend their decisions in light of these v objectives. But given the often competing and contradictory goals for public transit (reduce congestion and emissions, serve the needs of the poor and disabled, keep subsidies low, provide quality employment for workers, keep fares low, etc.), goal-driven pricing of transit services has proven elusive.{\^{A}} 2. There is some, albeit limited, interest in distance- and time-based fares, especially among agencies that have or soon will introduce smart cards.{\^{A}} While scholars and researchers have long argued for transit pricing based on principles of economic efficiency, in practice, most agencies pursue fare policies that appear to favor administrative efficiency (e.g. keeping fare collection simple) and effectiveness (e.g. simple and low transit fares, unlimited use passes that reward frequent riders). Our survey results underscore that even with increasing technological ability to do so, a majority transit agencies are unlikely to implement distance-based or time-of-day pricing anytime in the near future.{\^{A}} According to the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) (2012), 23 percent of transit operators nationwide currently employ some form of distance-based fare pricing and just 6 percent time of day pricing. While only 6 percent of the respondents to our survey who had recently adopted smart cards reported a move to time- or distance-based pricing as a result, nearly a quarter (24{\%}) of those planning to adopt smart cards said that they expect to use them to implement some form of distance-based pricing, and fully 18 percent report the same for time-of-day pricing. This suggests that while resistance to variable pricing remains widespread, at least some of this resistance is likely due to the operational challenges of implementing differentiated pricing in the absence of smart cards. And as those operational vi challenges are reduced by smartcards, the longstanding trend away from differentiated fares may begin to reverse.{\^{A}} 3. Transit agencies are risk-averse and seek to minimize public scrutiny of any fare changes.{\^{A}} Our survey results emphasize that transit officials seek to ensure their actions avoid public scrutiny and negative publicity, which substantially inhibits implementing variable cost pricing for two reasons. First, implementing variable fare pricing in almost all cases would be a radical departure from the flat fare status quo, and would thus subject a transit agency to financial scrutiny, heightened media attention, and increased lawmaker inquiry {\^{a}}€“ all of which transit officials report they seek to avoid. Secondly, the transit managers we surveyed report that any fare increases will subject their agency to public scrutiny. Concerns over the negative consequences of fare changes appear to be so embedded that transit managers report focusing far more on the riders they might lose from any fare changes than the riders they might gain by implementing, for example, variable fares. They are, in other words, highly loss averse. Finally, the transit agency representatives we interviewed collectively reported that they have generally not conducted market research on non-riders or on customer responses to alternative fare structures, and that they have little understanding of the likely ridership gains and losses that might accompany distance- or time-based pricing.{\^{A}} But despite the many potential benefits of marginal cost-based transit pricing touted in the literature, our interviews found significant evidence of risk-aversion, goal obfuscation, and cost confusion among transit managers, as predicted by the literature on public administration. The interviews revealed, with sometimes surprising candor, how little some senior transit managers understand their costs of service provision and how they vary. This lack of cost comprehension may be the inevitable result of government agencies{\^{a}}€™ mandate to maintain service without regard to cost or vice versa (Flam, Persson, and Svensson 1982).{\^{A}} We hypothesize that transit agencies{\^{a}}€™ mission ambiguity is a leading explanatory factor of the context in which a poor understanding of costs can persist. As has been argued in the literature, this lack of cost comprehension is manifest in the crude ways in which transit fares are set, despite advances in technology that can facilitate a movement away from costabstracted, flat, and uniform fares and toward},

abstract = {This paper presents a general framework to estimate the bus user time benefits of a median busway including the effects on travel time and access time. Unlike previous models, we take into account the effects of geometry and the interaction with the demand structure. Models for predicting the bus in-vehicle time benefits of a median dual carriageway busway against mixed traffic condition on 2 and 3 lanes roads are estimated using data from a case study in Santiago (Chile), using a bus travel time model empirically estimated and considering different base case situations, including mixed traffic operations and bus lanes. Results of the application show that the expected in-vehicle time savings of a median busway might be reduced by access time losses due to increased walking distances and road crossing delays. Also, that net time benefits can vary significantly according to the base situation and the structure of demand considered. These findings point out to the need of including a wider set of impacts when studying the benefits of median busways, beyond in-vehicle time savings only. The empirical work presented here is completely based on passive data coming from GPS and smartcards, what makes easier and cheaper to conduct this type of analysis as well as to do it with a comprehensive scope at an early stage of the development of a BRT project. This framework can be extended to other types of dedicated bus lanes provided that a corresponding bus travel time savings model is available.},

Transit users' route choices were explicitly modeled in the transit system on the time-expanded network. This modeling scheme was integrated into the lower level of the bi-level programming framework, where the upper level uncovered the optimized fare levels for the distance-based fare structure with a genetic algorithm.

Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

abstract = {Stated-preference methods are a class of evaluation techniques for studying the preferences of patients and other stakeholders. While these methods span a variety of techniques, conjoint-analysis methods - and particularly discrete-choice experiments (DCEs) - have become the most frequently applied approach in health care in recent years. Experimental design is an important stage in the development of such methods, but establishing a consensus on standards is hampered by lack of understanding of available techniques and software. This report builds on the previous ISPOR Conjoint Analysis Task Force Report: Conjoint Analysis Applications in Health - A Checklist: A Report of the ISPOR Good Research Practices for Conjoint Analysis Task Force. This report aims to assist researchers specifically in evaluating alternative approaches to experimental design, a difficult and important element of successful DCEs. While this report does not endorse any specific approach, it does provide a guide for choosing an approach that is appropriate for a particular study. In particular, it provides an overview of the role of experimental designs for the successful implementation of the DCE approach in health care studies, and it provides researchers with an introduction to constructing experimental designs on the basis of study objectives and the statistical model researchers have selected for the study. The report outlines the theoretical requirements for designs that identify choice-model preference parameters and summarizes and compares a number of available approaches for constructing experimental designs. The task-force leadership group met via bimonthly teleconferences and in person at ISPOR meetings in the United States and Europe. An international group of experimental-design experts was consulted during this process to discuss existing approaches for experimental design and to review the task force's draft reports.

abstract = {Objectives This study aimed 1) to quantify the strength of patient preferences for different aspects of early assisted discharge in The Netherlands for patients who were admitted with a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation and 2) to illustrate the benefits of latent class modeling of discrete choice data. This technique is rarely used in health economics. Methods Respondents made multiple choices between hospital treatment as usual (7 days) and two combinations of hospital admission (3 days) followed by treatment at home. The latter was described by a set of attributes. Hospital treatment was constant across choice sets. Respondents were patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in a randomized controlled trial investigating the cost-effectiveness of early assisted discharge and their informal caregivers. The data were analyzed using mixed logit, generalized multinomial logit, and latent-class conditional logit regression. These methods allow for heterogeneous preferences across groups, but in different ways. Results Twenty-five percent of the respondents opted for hospital treatment regardless of the description of the early assisted discharge program, and 46{\%} never opted for the hospital. The best model contained four latent classes of respondents, defined by different preferences for the hospital and caregiver burden. Preferences for other attributes were constant across classes. Attributes with the strongest effect on choices were the burden on informal caregivers and co-payments. Except for the number of visits, all attributes had a significant effect on choices in the expected direction. Conclusions Considerable segments of respondents had fixed preferences for either treatment option. Applying latent class analysis was essential in quantifying preferences for attributes of early assisted discharge. {\textcopyright} 2014 International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR).},

abstract = {Urban redevelopment is an important way for city evolution especially in metropolitans where the limitation of land resource becomes a bottleneck to farther development. However, redevelopment can bring a number of perturbations on transportation system, even though it improves the efficiency of land use. Many cases can be found to cause or exacerbate traffic congestion because of redevelopment especially in developing countries. Urban redevelopment scenario might be erroneous without accurate travel forecasting and traffic impact evaluation. To avoid the negative impact on traffic under redevelopment, an effective transportation model is needed to forecast accurate travel demand, and effective traffic impact evaluation measures are also needed based on output of the transportation model to compare scenarios and complete scenario planning. Developing countries often lack robust transportation planning models and effective evaluate measures to address urban development and redevelopment. In this paper, based on the differences of transportation system and travel demand forecast between urban development and redevelopment, we propose an integrated multimodal metropolitan transportation model to meet the requirements of urban redevelopment forecast, and develop an evaluation index system for scenario planning to compare traffic impact of urban redevelopment scenarios quantitatively. To illustrate recommendations for developing countries, we use state of Maryland in the United States as a case study to demonstrate forecast accuracy of the integrated transportation model and also show the traffic evaluation for redevelopment scenario planning. The results indicate that the integrated multimodal metropolitan transportation model can get better fitness and it is easy to assess which scenario can reduce traffic congestion using the evaluation index system.},

abstract = {This paper develops a random utility based estimation framework for the Household Activity Pattern Problem (HAPP). Based on the realization that outputs of complex activity-travel decisions form a continuous pattern in space-time dimension, the estimation framework is treated as a pattern selection problem. In particular, we define a variant of HAPP that has capabilities of forecasting activity selection and durations in addition to activity sequencing. The framework is comprised of three steps, (i) choice set generation, (ii) choice set individualization and (iii) model estimation. The estimation results show that utilities for work, shopping and disuilities for travel time, time outside home, and average tour delay are found to be significant in activity-travel decision making.},

Specifically, the Weibull distributed random error term handles the identically distributed assumption such that the perception variance with respect to different trip lengths can be distinguished, and a path-size factor term is introduced to resolve the route overlapping issue by adjusting the choice probabilities for routes with strong couplings with other routes. A multiplicative Beckmann's transformation (MBec) combined with an entropy term are used to develop the MP formulation for the PSW-SUE model. A path-based algorithm based on the partial linearization method is adopted for solving the PSW-SUE model. Numerical examples are also provided to illustrate features of the PSW-SUE model and its differences compared to some existing SUE model as well as its applicability on a real-size network.},

However, this information has proven to be very useful as an input in achieving sustainable urban transport with useroriented policies. Given this situation, it is typically assumed that people in urban areas of developing cities tend to follow behaviors of developed cities due to globalization. This study aims to elaborate the characteristics of activities and travels of young workers (employees), and to examine their action space in conducting their daily travels. An activity-based research approach was applied to young employees for one weekday and one weekend using daily reports and the GPS app on smartphones. This study found that the shape of action space of the respondents in the city tends to spread in two directions: an ellipse and a circle, with the former one more dominant. Geographical data confirmed that male and female young employees have similar shape and area width of action space. It was also found that young motorcyclist employees in developing city, likes Bandung, have similar travel pattern, regardless of type of day and monthly expenses.},

abstract = {Learning-based models that capture travelers' day-to-day learning processes in repeated travel choices could benefit from ubiquitous sensors such as smartphones, which provide individual-level longitudinal data to help validate and improve such models. However, the common problem of missing initial observations in longitudinal data collection can lead to inconsistent estimates of perceived value of attributes in question, and thus inconsistent parameter estimates. In this paper, the stated problem is addressed by treating the missing observations as latent variables. The proposed method is implemented in practice as maximum simulated likelihood (MSL) correction with two sampling methods in an instance-based learning model for travel choice, and the finite sample bias and efficiency of the estimators are investigated. Monte Carlo experimentation based on synthetic data shows that both the MSL with random sampling (MSLrs) and MSL with importance sampling (MSLis) are effective in correcting for the endogeneity problem in that the percent error and empirical coverage of the estimators are greatly improved after correction. Compared to the MSLrs method, the MSLis method is superior in both effectiveness and computational efficiency. Furthermore, MSLis passes a formal statistical test for the recovery of the population values up to a scale with a large number of missing observations, while MSLrs systematically fails due to the curse of dimensionality. The impacts of sampling size in MSLrs and number of high probability choice sequences in MSLis on the methods' performances are investigated. The methods are applied to an experimental route-choice dataset to demonstrate their empirical application. Hausman-McFadden tests show that the estimators after correction are statistically equal to the estimators of the full dataset without missing observations, confirming that the proposed methods are practical and effective for addressing the stated problem.},

@article{Smith2015,
abstract = {This paper presents idealised natural general and special dynamical models of day-to-day re-routeing and of day to day green-time response. Both green-time response models are based on the responsive control policy P0 introduced in Smith (1979a, b, c 1987). Several results are proved. For example, it is shown that, for any steady feasible demand within a flow model, if the general day to day re-routeing model is combined with the general day to day green-time response model then under natural conditions any (flow, green-time) solution trajectory cannot leave the region of supply-feasible (flow, green-time) pairs and costs are bounded. Throughput is maximised in the following sense. Given any constant feasible demand; this demand is met as any routeing / green-time trajectory evolves (following either the general or the special dynamical model). The paper then considers simple “pressure driven” responsive control policies, with explicit signal cycles of fixed positive duration. A possible approach to dynamic traffic control allowing for variable route choices is outlined. It is finally shown that modified Varaiya (2013) and Le at al (2013) pressure-driven responsive controls may not maximise network capacity, by considering a very simple one junction network. It is shown that (with each of these two modified policies) there is a steady demand within the capacity of the network for which there is no Wardrop equilibrium consistent with the policy. In contrast, responsive P0 on this simple network does maximise throughput at a quasi-dynamic user equilibrium consistent with P0; queues and delays remain bounded in natural dynamical evolutions in this case. It is to be expected that this P0 result may be extended to allow for certain time-varying demands on a much wider variety of networks; to show that this is indeed the case is a challenge for the future.},

abstract = {This work provides initial investigation into whether equivalence between the mean-variance and scheduling approaches to transport reliability can be applied in the context high frequency public transport services. Each of these approaches is briefly outlined and the current work is framed by previous research attempting to demonstrate equivalence: both theoretically and empirically. The basic assumptions underpinning the theoretical approach to equivalence are explored and then re-formulated based upon which variables are likely to be known. The concept of headway is introduced to the theoretical approach using notation from previous research in order to represent public transport services. An empirical illustration of the method is undertaken using smart card data obtained from the London Underground metro system. The data are combined with timetable data and a previously developed method for estimating passenger preferred arrival times, which in turn allows the theoretical equivalence between mean-variance and scheduling approaches to be tested empirically. This is initially performed for a single origin-destination (OD) pair and then for 23 other ODs of varying headways. The example using a single OD demonstrates that even for a high frequency metro service, application of the theoretical equivalence is problematic, with variable parameters substantially affected. In the case of many ODs, a linear relationship is observed between the ratio of public transport to standard scheduling parameters and headway, suggesting the theoretical equivalence becomes less viable as headway increases. At the lowest values of headway, it is concluded that the equivalence remains problematic and further work is required before equivalence between the mean variance and scheduling approaches can be implemented in the public transport context.},

In the choice making stage, drivers are assumed to choose the route with maximum utility. The data used in this research is 2011 probe vehicle data collected in Toyota city, Japan. The applied model can be estimated simultaneously for two stages with only the information in choice making stage, and multiple constraints can be used in the choice set generation stage, furthermore, the applied model overcomes the choice-set explosion, therefore, it can be applied even the number of alternatives are big in the master set. Estimation results indicate that routes with less turns have the higher probabilities to be put into drivers' considerations. Furthermore, when drivers are close to destinations, probabilities for consideration of routes with relatively more turns will significantly increase.

abstract = {In the recent years many developments took place regarding automated vehicles (AVs) technology. In fact AVs are expected to become available on the market in the next decades. It is however unknown to which extent the share of the existing modes will change as result of AVs introduction. To the best of our knowledge this study is the first where traveller preferences for AVs are explored and compared to existing modes. Thereby its main objective is to position AVs in the transportation market and understand the sensitivity of travellers towards some of their attributes. Because there are no fully-automated vehicles currently on the market, we apply a stated preference choice experiment where we explore the role of classic instrumental variables such as different travel time components and travel cost. In our study we focus on positioning AVs in the context of last mile transport at the activity-end in multimodal train trips. We can conclude that first class train travellers on average prefer using an automated vehicle as egress transport between train station and final destination, compared to using other egress modes. Second class train travellers on average prefer the use of bicycle and bus/tram/metro as egress mode instead of automated vehicles. Especially for first class train passengers, implementing AVs as last mile transport therefore has potential. Second, sensitivity of travellers for in-vehicle time is considerably higher for an automatically driven AV, compared to a manually driven AV. As consequence, the willingness-to-pay for a certain travel time reduction in an automatically driven AV is considerably higher, compared to a manually driven AV. Despite theoretical advantages of using travel time more efficiently in an automatically driven AV, it might be that psychological concepts, like attitudes, play a role here. Since automated driving is a very new and innovative way of transportation, the classic instrumental attributes like travel time might not tell the whole story.},

By calculating two specific path splittings, it is possible to identify subsets of the vertices (splitVer- texSets) that can be used to generate every possible path splitting by taking one vertex from each such subset and connecting the resulting vertices by a least cost path. This is interesting in transportation science when investigating the hypothesis that people build up their route from least cost components. The splitVertexSets can be easily and efficiently derived from big data (GPS recordings). This allows for statistical analysis of structural route characteristics which in turn can support constrained enumera- tion methods for route choice set building. Furthermore, the boundary vertices separating consecutive route parts, are way points having a particular meaning to their user which constitutes relevant information to the transportation analyst.},

abstract = {Individuals often recreate with others, but models of recreation-site choice (which ski area, climbing route, golf course, or bike trail) ignore the social aspect—a trait they share with most choice models. Site-choice models seek to explain site choice as a function of only the cost of visiting each site, the physical characteristics of the sites, income, and other characteristics of the individual. They ignore the influence of others on site choice. We find, using choice experiments, that having a companion and the companion's relative ability are critical determinants of site choice—what social psychology would predict. One will often choose a site less preferred in terms of its costs and characteristics if one has a companion of one's ability at the lesser site but not at the better site. Companions of comparable ability are preferred over companions that are better or worse. And, importantly, how one values the physical characteristics of sites depends on whether one has a companion. The magnitudes of our estimated companion effects suggest recreation-demand models that ignore them, all do, omit a critical endogenous variable. An implication is that observed trip patterns can be generated by social-interaction game playing (“where I go depends on where you go and {\ldots}”), not utility maximization in isolation. This paper does not model the game; it estimates a recreator's utility/reaction function with companion effects, showing the importance of the social component.},

abstract = {Traditional discrete choice experiments do not differentiate between the intrinsic importance of an attribute and that associated with its levels of variation. It has been suggested recently that best-worst (B-W) scaling (Case 2) allows for this differentiation. Here we pool B-W answers with binary stated choice (SC) data to study the importance of dwelling and neighbourhood attributes for apartment seekers in the centre of Santiago, Chile. Previous research had shown how these diverse elicitation methods can be pooled (albeit without including any type of heterogeneity), suggesting that the “best” (as opposed to “worst”) responses are most compatible with the binary SC data. In this paper we extend this work to allow for heterogeneity in preferences through (a) systematic taste variations alone, (b) correct treatment of panel effects alone, and finally, (c) the combined effect of both. In all cases the best resulting model is obtained by pooling the “best” answers with the binary SC, under the assumption of common and specific attributes to each dataset. Nevertheless, when the model included only unobserved heterogeneity through error components (to treat the panel effect), the datasets did not pool as well as when we did not consider it. The joint model had half of the attributes specific to each dataset while in the previous case only two were specific. On the other hand, when considering observed and unobserved heterogeneity, the two datasets pooled better than in the other cases, needing to consider only one attribute as specific to each set (and the remaining seven as common). We also analysed how the inclusion of heterogeneity changed the attribute estimates. In particular, the scales that can be constructed for the attributes and for their levels of variation do not change their relative order, but the magnitudes do, especially in cases where the estimates were not significantly different from zero at the 95{\%} confidence level.},

@article{Train2009a,
abstract = {SP-off-RP questions are a recent innovation in choice modelling that solicits information from respondents in a different way than standard stated-preference (SP) experiments. In particular, the alternatives and choice of a respondent in a real-world setting are observed, and the respondent is asked whether he/she would choose the same alternative or switch to another alternative if the attributes of the chosen alternative were less desirable in ways specified by the researcher and/or the attributes of non-chosen alternatives were more desirable in specified ways. This construction, called “stated-preference off revealed-preference” (SP-off-RP), is intended to increase the realism of the stated-preference task, relative to standard SP exercises, but creates endogeneity. In this paper, we present a series of Monte Carlo exercises that explore estimation on this type of data, using an estimator that accounts for the endogeneity. The results indicate that, when the variance in the processing error by respondents is the same for SP-off-RP data as for standard SP data, the two solicitation methods provide about the same level of efficiency in estimation, even though the SP-off-RP data contain endogeneity that the estimator must handle while the SP data do not involve endogeneity. For both solicitation methods, efficiency rises, as expected, as the variance of the processing error decreases. These results imply that, if respondents are able to answer SP-off-RP questions more accurately than standard SP questions (and hence have lower variance of processing error), then SP-off-RP data are more efficient that standard SP data. This implication needs to be viewed cautiously, since (i) the actual processing error for each solicitation method is not measured in the current study, and (ii) the results are for the specific data generation processes that are used in the Monte Carlo exercises.},

abstract = {This paper describes and applies a general approach for incorporating factors with structural equations into models for discrete choice. The approach gives form to the covariance matrix in random coefficient models. The factors act directly on the random coefficients as unobserved attributes. The structural equations allow the factors to act on each other building structures that can represent a variety of concepts such as global heterogeneity and segmentation. The practical outcomes include parsimonious and identified models with rich covariances and better fit. Of greater interest is the ability to specify models that represent and test theory on the relationships between the taste heterogeneities for covariates and in particular between the attributes within a discrete choice experiment. The paper describes the general model and then applies it to a discrete choice experiment with seven attributes. Four competing specifications are evaluated, which demonstrates the ability of the model to be identified and parsimonious. The four specifications also demonstrate how competing a priori knowledge of the structure of the attributes used in the experiment can be empirically tested and evaluated. The outcomes include new behavioral insights and knowledge about choice and choice processes for the subject area of discrete choice experiments.},

abstract = {The current paper focuses on analyzing and modeling the physical activity participation levels (in terms of the number of daily “bouts” or “episodes” of physical activity during a weekend day) of all members of a family jointly. Essentially, we consider a family as a “cluster” of individuals whose physical activity propensities may be affected by common household attributes (such as household income and household structure) as well as unobserved family-related factors (such as family life-style and health consciousness, and residential location-related factors). The proposed copula-based clustered ordered-response model structure allows the testing of various dependency forms among the physical activity propensities of individuals of the same household (generated due to the unobserved family-related factors), including non-linear and asymmetric dependency forms. The proposed model system is applied to study physical activity participations of individuals, using data drawn from the 2000 San Francisco Bay Area Household Travel Survey (BATS). A number of individual factors, physical environment factors, and social environment factors are considered in the empirical analysis. The results indicate that reduced vehicle ownership and increased bicycle ownership are important positive determinants of weekend physical activity participation levels, though these results should be tempered by the possibility that individuals who are predisposed to physical activity may choose to own fewer motorized vehicles and more bicycles in the first place. Our results also suggest that policy interventions aimed at increasing children's physical activity levels could potentially benefit from targeting entire family units rather than targeting only children. Finally, the results indicate strong and asymmetric dependence among the unobserved physical activity determinants of family members. In particular, the results show that unobserved factors (such as residence location-related constraints and family lifestyle preferences) result in individuals in a family having uniformly low physical activity, but there is less clustering of this kind at the high end of the physical activity propensity spectrum.},

abstract = {Car purchase taxes in The Netherlands are among the highest in the EU. The Dutch government plans to gradually replace car purchase and ownership taxes by a national road user charging system (kilometre charge) in the period 2012 to 2016. As a result, new and second hand car prices in the Netherlands will drop up to 30{\%}. Relatively little research has been conducted on the impacts of such large price changes on car ownership. Reduced car prices are likely to lead to an increase in car ownership. But consumers could also refrain from buying extra cars when they consider the extra operating costs resulting from the kilometre charge. This paper presents one of the few empirical studies to examine the effects of both (large) fixed and variable car cost changes on both car ownership and use. An internet survey among Dutch households was designed and conducted including stated intentions and stated preference experiments. We investigated whether households react more to present one-off fixed costs than to recurrent variable costs, for various specifications of car costs. Model analysis was conducted to derive fixed and variable price elasticities for private car ownership and effects of the kilometre charge. The study shows in their car purchase decisions, households react more strongly to a change in euro per year in fixed car costs than to a euro per year in variable car costs. Abolishing the Dutch car purchase tax while at the same time introducing a kilometre charge will lead to 2{\%} rise in car ownership on the short to medium run (1–5 years).},

abstract = {There is an extensive and growing literature on the design and use of stated choice experiments. Such experiments are generally regarded as the preferred framework within which to collect data to reveal the preferences of individuals in a particular application context. Analysts have developed sophisticated ways of analysing such data, typically using a form of discrete choice model that identifies the marginal (dis)utility associated with each observed attribute linked to an alternative, as well as accounting for sources of preference and scale heterogeneity. There is also a growing literature studying the attribute processing rules (or heuristics) that respondents use as a way of simplifying the task of choosing, for all manner of meaningful reason. We find that there is relatively less effort placed on looking closely at the data defining each choice situation for each respondent, as constructed by the stated choice experiment, and seeing if there exist 'evidential' rules that support in a plausible way, the choice responses. Heuristics investigated in this paper that might aid in our understanding of how choice scenarios are processed, leading to a choice outcome, include the role of dimensional vs. holistic attribute processing, the influence of relative attribute levels, and the revision of the reference alternative as value learning across sequenced choice sets. We find a high level of confidence in the evidence, and identify at least two features of choice set processing, namely value learning and majority of confirming dimensions, that are worthy of future inclusion in the estimation of all choice models. The evidence suggests that there is a great deal of behavioural sense in stated choice responses, for all manner of possible reason.},

In this paper, a meta-analysis of nineteen choice modeling (CM) studies in Australia is conducted generating 145 individual value estimates relating to river health. Implicit prices of different measures and scales of river health were transformed into a common standard of willingness to pay (WTP) per kilometer of river in good health. A Tobit model was used to identify the relationships between this dependent variable and a large number of study design characteristics. While there is evidence that the dimensions of choice tasks and description of attributes influence value estimates, there is also evidence that the way tradeoffs and payment mechanisms are framed are equally important. The results of this meta-analysis suggest that more attention should be paid to the way tradeoffs are framed in choice experiments relative to internal choice set structure and data analysis.},

This process is important for the success of the experiment and the validity of the results, but it is often not reported thoroughly. In the field of health care, one faces challenges in relation to what makes sense both for the respondent and what has clinical relevance, especially in situations with little evidence and unclear choices, where the decision making process is not clear or informed. This is the case for degenerative spine diseases, where the selection of candidates for surgical rather than non-surgical treatment has been widely discussed and where surgery rates accordingly vary across settings. In the present work, we demonstrated how the qualitative process significantly impacted and guided the design, and it was clear that a less thorough qualitative process would have resulted in a less useable and valid design. To elicit relevant attributes and levels for a DCE, fieldwork in clinical departments in Danish hospitals was performed and has been supplemented by qualitative interviews with patients and doctors. Systematic and thorough qualitative investigation of the decision context relevant attributes and levels and appropriate framing appears valuable in the process of designing a DCE for quantitative pilot testing.},

We find evidence of changes in preferences. More precisely there are differences in preferences for the price attribute for the two identical sequences. Moreover, we find a reduction in the error variance for the last eight choice sets relative to the first eight choice sets. This is mainly caused by very high error variances in the first two choice sets. These results imply that learning effects in terms of institutional learning as well as – though in our case only to a limited extent – preference learning can indeed be of significant structural importance when conducting CE surveys.},

Using data on book purchases collected from an Internet-based survey of two university towns in Northern California, we develop a latent class model with two segments (final N =373). Age turns out to be the only observed determinant of class membership, and in the intention model, the mostly-younger segment is more cost-sensitive and the mostly-older segment appears to be more convenience-sensitive. The results clearly demonstrate the effects on purchase intention of channel-specific perceptions, purchase experience, context and sociodemographics. Comparing the LCM to the unsegmented model and to models deterministically segmented on age indicates that the LCM is slightly better from the statistical perspective, but arguably weaker from the conceptual perspective. However, a model that interacts age with the explanatory variables in the conventional unsegmented model outperforms all the others (though not overwhelmingly so), including the LCM. Thus, our results suggest that using LCM as an initial stage in model exploration allows us to more intelligently specify a model where the taste heterogeneity is (potentially) specified deterministically in the end, which often yields a more parsimonious model, and may in fact fit the data better.},

The plans are inherently dynamic. They evolve due to situational constraints and contextual factors, experience, inertia, or changing preferences. As a result, the chosen actions might be different from those initially planned. In this paper, we present the methodology to model the dynamics of choices using a two-layer decision hierarchy (choice of a plan and choice of action conditional on the plan) and its dynamics. This framework, based on Hidden Markov Model principles, assumes that the plan at every time period depends on the plan at the previous time period and the actions taken in the previous time periods as well as other variables including the characteristics of the decision maker. The dynamics in the observed actions are explained by the dynamics in the underlying latent (unobserved) plans. The methodology is demonstrated by modelling the dynamics associated with the driving decisions as the drivers enter a freeway. The model is estimated using disaggregate trajectory data and validated in a microscopic traffic simulator.},

abstract = {A brief review of theoretical and empirical literature on the effort expended in making choices is followed by the description of an experiment in which participants were asked to respond to a series of road charging scenarios. Participants were asked to estimate the charges payable, to indicate their confidence in that estimate, to say how difficult they had found it to understand the scenario, and to indicate whether they would change their behaviour if the charges were introduced. The time they took to answer each question was recorded and background data was collected on their personal characteristics and attitudes as well as on their attitude to decision-making. Analysis of the resulting data shows that the time taken to estimate the charge and decide on a response varied not only with the characteristics of the scenario and with the order of presentation (indicating a learning, or fatigue, effect), but also with personal characteristics (notably age, educational attainment and self-reported decision-making style). The time taken to estimate a charge was significantly (and positively) related to the degree of difficulty reported and, although additional time devoted to making an estimate generally resulted in more accurate estimates, for the simplest scenarios, increased time taken was associated with reduced accuracy. These findings, particularly on the existence of groups with very different levels of motivation to make careful assessment of costs and benefits, and on the factors influencing the time taken to respond to questions, have implications for our understanding of real-world decision-making and for the way that we should collect and categorise choice data and model the decision-making process. The use of simple questions designed to elicit participants' attitudes to decision-making is seen to show great promise in this context.},

This paper contributes to the vacation travel literature by examining how households decide what vacation travel activities to participate in on an annual basis, and to what extent, given the total annual vacation travel time that is available at their disposal. To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive modeling exercise in the literature to undertake such a vacation travel time-use analysis to examine purpose-specific time investments. A mixed multiple discrete-continuous extreme value (MDCEV) model structure that is consistent with the notion of “optimal arousal” in vacation type time-use decisions is used in the analysis. The data for the empirical analysis is drawn from the 1995 American Travel Survey (ATS). The results show that most households participate in different types of domestic vacation travel over the course of a year, and spend significantly different amounts of time on each type of vacation travel, based on household demographics, economic characteristics, and residence characteristics.},

abstract = {Using data from two Choice Experiment environmental valuation surveys we investigate several different ways of handling respondent uncertainty. In both surveys respondents are asked to state their certainty of choice after each single choice set. We evaluate three different recoding-of-answers methods adapted from the Contingent Valuation literature. Furthermore, we evaluate two models which directly capture the effect of respondent uncertainty by parameterization of a scale function. In one model the scale parameter is a function of respondents' stated uncertainty level. In the other it is a function of respondent and choice set characteristics found to be significant determinants of stated uncertainty. All approaches are compared to a benchmark utility model. While some of the recoding approaches apparently reduce noise in the data, they generally have no significant effect on attribute Willingness-To-Pay (WTP) estimates, and standard errors on WTP estimates tend to increase. The explicit modelling of the scale parameter using stated uncertainty reveals that unobserved variation decreases as certainty of choice increases. While the model performance does not improve much, this approach offers a structurally and intuitively much more appealing way of accounting for uncertainty in choices in CE.},

Patients' preferences for organisational characteristics in general practice in Denmark are elicited, and the cost attribute is operationalised as user fees for the consultation. A representative sample of 1435 respondents from the Danish population answered the discrete choice experiment in a web-based questionnaire with a random split including/excluding the cost attribute. The two groups were asked to make both forced and unforced choices in each choice set. Our results show that in the unforced choice utility and scale parameters were not affected and the rank order remained the same when a cost attribute was included. In the forced choice the test of equal utility parameters was rejected, and rank order, marginal rates of substitution, and variance was shown to differ between the two groups. We observed that the inclusion of a cost attribute tended to change underlying choice behaviour. Evidence of potential dominant preferences was found in all splits.},

They expand the ranking data to various “implied” choices in subsets and fit the expanded data in various ways; they do not present models of the original rank data, except in one case (that of the rank ordered logit). We build on that work by constructing models of the original rank data that are consistent with the “weights” implied by the data expansions. This results in two classes of models: the first includes the reversible ranking model and has useful “score” properties; the second includes the rank ordered logit model and has natural “process” interpretations. We summarize known and new results on relations between the two classes of models and present fits of the models to the data of a case study concerning micro-generation of electricity using solar panels – that is, where individual households generate electricity using a renewable energy technology.},

As a result, interregional travel models capture behavior important to longer distance travel, such as induced trips, business and commute decisions, recreational travel, attributes of destinations, reliability of travel, party size, and access and egress modal options. Intraregional travel models rely on local highway and transit characteristics and behavior associated with shorter distance trips (such as commuting and shopping).},

abstract = {In a discrete choice experiment, each respondent chooses the best product or service sequentially from many groups or choice sets of alternative goods. The alternatives are described by levels of a set of predefined attributes and are also referred to as profiles. Respondents often find it difficult to trade off prospective goods when every attribute of the offering changes in each comparison. Especially in studies involving many attributes, respondents get overloaded by the complexity of the choice task. To overcome respondent fatigue, it is better to simplify the choice tasks by holding the levels of some of the attributes constant in every choice set. The resulting designs are called partial profile designs. In this paper, we construct D-optimal partial profile designs for estimating main-effects models. We use a Bayesian design algorithm that integrates the D-optimality criterion over a prior distribution of likely parameter values. To determine the constant attributes in each choice set, we generalize the approach that makes use of balanced incomplete block designs. Our algorithm is very flexible because it produces partial profile designs of any choice set size and allows for attributes with any number of levels and any number of constant attributes. We provide an illustration in which we make recommendations that balance the loss of statistical information and the burden imposed on the respondents.},

abstract = {This paper presents the regional travel forecasting model system (SACSIM) being used by the Sacramento (California) Area Council of Governments (SACOG). Within SACSIM an integrated activity-based disaggregate econometric model (DaySim) simulates each resident's full-day activity and travel schedule. Sensitivity to neighborhood scale is enhanced through disaggregation of the modeled outcomes in three key dimensions: purpose, time, and space. Each activity episode is associated with one of seven specific purposes, and with a particular parcel location at which it occurs. The beginning and ending times of all activity and travel episodes are identified within a specific 30-minute time period. Within SACSIM, DaySim equilibrates iteratively with traditional traffic assignment models. SACSIM was calibrated and tested for a base year of 2000 and for forecasts to the years 2005 and 2035, and was subjected to a formal peer-review. It was used to provide forecasts for the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and continues to be used for various policy analyses. The paper explains the model system structure and components, the integration with the traffic assignment model, calibration and validation, sensitivity tests, model application and Federal peer review results. We conclude that it is possible to create and apply a regional demand model system using parcel-level geography and half-hour time of day periods. Experiences thus far have pointed to major benefits of using detailed land use variables and urban design variables, but also to new challenges in providing parcel-level land use inputs for future years.},

abstract = {While there have been many studies of urban travel demand, little attention has been paid to the analysis of inter-urban rail travel demand. Studies of inter-urban rail demand usually focus on assessment through the conventional cost benefit analysis of this type of investments, in which the emphasis is on the cost side. However, the analysis of the potential benefits, bearing in mind the intermodal competition, is usually neglected. This paper analyzes the potential competition of the high speed train (HST) with the main competing modes on the Madrid-Barcelona route, where a new HST infrastructure has been recently built. The analysis is based on the estimation of disaggregated Nested Logit models using information provided by travellers in the main corridors: Madrid-Zaragoza and Madrid-Barcelona. The utility specification considers the effect of the main level-of-service attributes as well as some latent variables on modal choice. We analyze demand response to various policy scenarios that consider the potential competition between HST and other modes as well as the willingness to pay for improved levels of service. The results highlight the low level of competition that the HST could exert over air transport services in Madrid-Barcelona corridor, showing that policy makers may have been very optimistic about the figures of traffic diversion from air that could be attained.},

abstract = {Maximum simulated likelihood (MSL) procedure is generally adopted in discrete choice analysis to solve complex models without closed mathematical formulation. This procedure differs from the maximum likelihood simply because simulated probabilities are inserted into the Log-Likelihood (LL) function. The LL function to be maximized is the sum of the logarithm of the expected choice probabilities; since the logarithmic operation is a nonlinear transformation bias is then introduced. The simulation bias depends on the number of draws that are used in the simulation and on the sample size. Although the asymptotic properties of the MSL estimator are well known, the question is how simulation bias affects parameters estimation and therefore the main outcomes of choice models (for instance value of travel time and market shares). In this paper, we estimate explicitly the simulation bias in mixed logit parameter estimation, using Taylor expansion and we correct the log-likelihood objective function during the maximization process. The method is developed in the context of Monte Carlo simulation. We report significant error reduction on the final objective value but also on the optimal parameters. The method could be extended to randomized quasi-Monte Carlo techniques as long as standard deviations of simulated choice probabilities are calculated. Computation costs can be neglected when using Monte Carlo draws and even when advanced strategies such as adaptive sampling methodology are in use.},

abstract = {A recurring issue in the discourse about choice modelling is the role of consideration sets. Many scholars have proposed that consumers will follow a two-stage decision process. This paper argues that in spatial choice contexts the role of the consideration set may largely depend on the decision maker's level of access to the alternatives. It is proposed that in conditions where the decision maker's accessibility toward alternatives is constrained–for example as a result of time space feasibility–a two-stage model will perform better than a on-stage model. The more restrictive the constraints, the more important the role of the consideration set. The paper presents a simulation analysis of the effects of geographical accessibility on consideration and choice in the context of motorists' decisions where to refuel. It simulates a grid road network where the motorists' access to petrol stations is constrained by the geographical location of the alternatives, the availability of network connections between them and the decision makers' time budgets. In this hypothetical spatial environment the study simulates consideration and choice processes for refuelling options under different conditions of petrol station access, (non-spatial) station attractiveness, and heterogeneity in the decision maker's time budget.},

abstract = {A generation of new models has been proposed to handle some complex human behaviors. These models account for the data ambiguity, and therefore extend the application field of the discrete choice modeling. The facial expression recognition (FER) is highly relevant in this context. We develop a dynamic facial expression recognition (DFER) framework based on discrete choice models (DCM). The DFER consists in modeling the choice of a person who has to label a video sequence representing a facial expression. The originality is based on the the analysis of videos with discrete choice models as well as the explicit modeling of causal effects between the facial features and the recognition of the expression. Five models are proposed. The first assumes that only the last frame of the video triggers the choice of the expression. The second model has two components. The first captures the perception of the facial expression within each frame in the sequence, while the second determines which frame triggers the choice. The third model is an extension of the second model and assumes that the choice of the expression results from the average of perceptions within a group of frames. The fourth and fifth models integrate the panel effect inherent to the estimation data and are respectively extensing the first and second models. The models are estimated using videos from the Facial Expressions and Emotions Database (FEED). Labeling data on the videos has been obtained using an internet survey available at http://transp-or2.epfl.ch/videosurvey/. The prediction capability of the models is studied in order to check their validity by cross-validation using the estimation data.},

As a proof of concept, we offer an empirical example of our method using a conjoint analysis of demand for programs to reduce health risks. Our results suggest that respondents differentially allocate attention across attributes as a function of the mix of attribute levels in a choice set. This behaviour can cause researchers who fail to model attention allocation to estimate incorrectly the marginal utilities derived from selected attributes. This illustrative example is a first attempt to implement an attention-corrected choice model with a sample of field data from a conjoint choice experiment.},

Such students' nonreturn is a type of brain drain. Survey data on the return intention of foreign students studying in tertiary-level courses in New Zealand universities are analyzed using a partial proportional odds model. This model takes into account the ordinal nature of the return intention as the dependent variable while at the same time allowing for possible violation of the parallel lines assumption from the explanatory variables. Perceptions of different aspects of one's home country, particularly the aspect of skill use opportunities, are generally found to have larger impacts on return intention than demographic, education-related, and sociocultural-related factors. Based on the results, the paper discusses some relevant policy implications.},

abstract = {This paper considers the stability of the dynamical system which arises when a responsive control system is utilised in a signal-controlled urban road network. In this case current traffic flows change current green-times (according to the responsive control policy) and current green-times change current delays and hence drivers' route choices and current flows. Simple networks only are considered; starting with a small symmetrical network with two routes and a traffic signal which follows the equisaturation control policy. The symmetrical equilibrium, with equal flows on both routes, is (under reasonable conditions) unstable. The paper then shows that, within the simple network considered, bottlenecks may be added which makes the symmetrical equilibrium stable for certain steady Origin-Destination loads. Finally the paper considers the stability of a similar asymmetrical network when a special responsive policy is used. Under natural conditions the network is shown to be stable under this policy for all feasible Origin-Destination loads. The stability proof given for this network is designed to generalise so as to apply to a general signal-controlled network under suitable conditions; however such a general stability proof is not included in this paper.},

We contrast this with DCEs that have a long-standing, well-tested theoretical basis in random utility theory, and we show why and how DCEs are more general and consistent with economic demand theory. Perhaps the major message, though, is that many studies that claim to be doing conjoint analysis are really doing DCE.},

The result is that few Internet surveys and experiments are able to exploit the unique capabilities of the web. This paper suggests a new approach, illustrated with a working prototype: an open-source, domain-specific language (DSL) designed for specifying web surveys and experiments, which is called websperiment. The paper first looks at the existing approaches, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. It then outlines the concepts underlying websperiment, and this DSL's nature and scope, with simple code examples. Finally, it shows how the DSL can be used to concisely specify a highly dynamic choice modelling survey.},

The questionnaires of 1005 respondents were used in a multinomial logit analysis of the latter three experiments. The values of travel time savings (VTTS) depended nonlinearly on the individual's income, travel time and overall travel costs. The respondents' evaluation of the cost components of fuel, tolls and parking differed significantly. Shifts in departure time depended on the choice situation were negatively valued. Furthermore, the importance of political preferences, as measured in the SP survey on acceptability, could be demonstrated, as the inclusion improved the model fit significantly as well as the reliability of the results.},

abstract = {The goal of this study is to develop and apply a new method for assessing social equity impacts of distance-based public transit fares. Shifting to a distance-based fare structure can disproportionately favor or penalize different subgroups of a population based on variations in settlement patterns, travel needs, and most importantly, transit use. According to federal law, such disparities must be evaluated by the transit agency, but the area-based techniques identified by the Federal Transit Authority for assessing discrimination fail to account for disparities in distances travelled by transit users. This means that transit agencies currently lack guidelines for assessing the social equity impacts of replacing flat fare with distance-based fare structures. Our solution is to incorporate a joint ordinal/continuous model of trip generation and distance travelled into a GIS Decision Support System. The system enables a transit planner to visualize and compare distance travelled and transit-cost maps for different population profiles and fare structures. We apply the method to a case study in the Wasatch Front, Utah, where the Utah Transit Authority is exploring a switch to a distance-based fare structure. The analysis reveals that overall distance-based fares benefit low-income, elderly, and non-white populations. However, the effect is geographically uneven, and may be negative for members of these groups living on the urban fringe. {\textcopyright} 2014 The Authors.},

A microeconomic model of the pass purchase decision is developed and empirically tested. The factor most influencing transit users to buy passes is the expectation of a net economic benefit relative to paying cash. Most of this benefit is in the form of reduced expenditure for transit trips. As a consequence, given a cash fare level, total system revenue will be smaller if a pass is part of the fare structure than if there is no pass. Furthermore, with a pass programme, total system revenue will be inversely related to the volume of pass sales. /// In dem Aufsatz werden die Determinanten der individuellen Nachfrage nach Zeitkarten und die Auswirkungen auf die Einnahmen im Verkehr untersucht.

This was the strategy adopted by the regional government in Madrid, Spain, in 1986, and since then public transport patronage has increased by more than 50{\%}. This paper has two objectives. The first is to identify the factors underlying the significant increase in the demand for public transport in Madrid. To do this, an aggregate demand function is estimated for bus and underground trips, which allows one to obtain the demand elasticities with respect to the main attributes of public transport services and also to calculate the long-term impact of changes in those explanatory variables on patronage. The second objective is to evaluate the impact on revenue derived from the introduction of the travel card scheme, and to discuss the consequences on revenue of changes in the relative fare levels of different types of ticket without substantially affecting patronage. This latter issue is addressed by estimating a matrix of own and cross-price elasticities for different ticket types.},

abstract = {When faced with a choice of selecting one of several available products (or possibly buying nothing), according to standard theoretical perspectives, people will choose the option with the highest cost–benefit difference. However, we propose that decisions about free (zero price) products differ, in that people do not simply subtract costs from benefits but instead they perceive the benefits associated with free products as higher.$\backslash$nWe test this proposal by contrasting demand for two products across conditions that maintain the price difference between the goods, but vary the prices such that the cheaper good in the set is priced at either a low positive or zero price. In contrast with a standard cost–benefit perspective, in the zero-price condition, dramatically more participants choose the cheaper option, whereas dramatically fewer participants choose the more expensive option. Thus, people appear to act as if zero pricing of a good not only decreases its cost, but also adds to its benefits. After documenting this basic effect, we propose and test several psychological antecedents of the effect, including social norms, mapping difficulty, and affect. Affect emerges as the most likely account for the effect.},

This study investigates the causes of this dramatic increase in popularity of both tram and bus use. Although traffic restraint measures and improvements in the quality of the public transit service are significant factors, the main explanation lies in the introduction of low cost 'environmental' travel cards with the key characteristics of transferability across friends and family and wide regional validity across operators. These season tickets considerbaly augmented transit demand without seriously exacerbating the operating deficit.},

abstract = {1 2 Medium term outcomes of a strategy to reduce peak rail overloading in Melbourne 3 Australia are explored. It aims to shift peak ridership to pre-peak trains using a free 'early bird' 4 ticket valid for CBD station exit before 7:00a.m. 5 The program costs {\$}6M in lost farebox (2008) and around 8-9,000 passengers use the 6 ticket/ weekday. Ticket use is increasing (1.7{\%} p.a.) while overall rail usage is stable. A 2008 7 survey found that 23{\%} of free ticket users had shifted time of travel to the pre-peak; 2,000-2,600 8 each peak. 9 The 'Medium Term Growth Effect' hypothesis suggests take-up of pre-a.m. peak travel 10 will take time because passengers must adjust life styles to enable early commuter travel. Results 11 confirm this; early bird use is increasing by 1.7{\%} p.a. 12 Another hypothesis; the 'Winter Dark Morning Effect' suggests that passengers will time-13 shift commutes to pre-peak less in dark winter months. While some trends are consistent with 14 this no overall link between darker winter months and lower usage is found. This is due to 15 lighter (and milder) winter mornings in Melbourne compared to Northern American and 16 European cities. 17 After early bird pre 7:00a.m loads increased 41{\%} reducing pressures for 18 purchase/operations of new peak trains saving 2.5-5.0 trains (2008) to a forecast of 8.05 trains in 19 2038. Financial analysis suggests the savings would substantively cover financial costs of free 20 fares and benefits will increase over time. Wider economic benefits increase viability. 21 The paper identifies key success factors for wider application and areas for future 22 research. 23 24 25 Abstract = 248 words (limit = 250 words)},

@article{Troncoso2017,
abstract = {An econometric model is presented that identifies the main variables explaining evasion of fare payment on a public transport system. The model uses a cointegration approach. The model parameters are estimated using data from the Santiago (Chile) bus system, where evasion has been measured at approximately 28{\%}. The main results of the model are that (i) a 10{\%} increase in the fare raises evasion by 2 percentage points and (ii) a 10{\%} increase in inspections lowers evasion by 0.8 percentage points. An increase in unemployment, the third explanatory variable in the model, tends to induce a decrease in evasion, and vice versa. This counterintuitive finding may be explained by the fact that those most vulnerable to job loss, and more likely to evade than the average user due to economic necessity, tend to reduce their use of the bus system when unemployment rises and increase it when unemployment falls. Our results suggest a revision of the evasion control policy in Santiago to improve its effectiveness, and to link inspection efforts to fare increases or to decreases in unemployment.},

abstract = {The purpose of this synthesis was to document the past and current experiences of public transit agencies that have planned, implemented, and operated fare-free transit systems. The report concentrates on public transit agencies that are either direct recipients or sub-recipients of federal transit grants and provide fare-free service to everyone in their service area on every mode they provide. The report will be of interest to transit managers and staffs, small urban and rural areas, university, and resort communities, as well as stakeholders and policy makers at all levels who would be interested in knowing the social benefits and macro impacts of providing affordable mobility through fare-free public transit. A review of the relevant literature was conducted for this effort. Reports provide statistics on changes in levels of ridership associated with fare-free service. White papers or agency reports identified by the topic panel or discovered through interviews with fare-free transit managers were also reviewed. Through topic panel input, Internet searches, listserv communications, and APTA and TRB sources, the first comprehensive listing of public transit agencies that provide fare-free service in the United States was identified. A selected survey of these identified public transit agencies yielded an 82{\%} response rate (32/39). The report offers a look at policy and administrative issues through survey responses. Five case studies, achieved through interviews, represent the three types of communities that were found to be most likely to adopt a fare-free policy: rural and small urban, university dominated, and resort communities.},

abstract = {This study focuses on the phenomenon of overbidding for toll road concessions. Overbidding refers to bidding beyond an asset's worth, typically in the transport sector through the submission of over-optimistic projections of traffic and revenue. Overbidding for toll road concessions is internationally observed as bidders compete in many countries to win attractive (and potentially lucrative) long-term concession contracts. However, it can lead to project distress and commercial failure, dampening the enthusiasm for subsequent private sector investment. These are outcomes that concession grantors generally wish to avoid. • The emphasis in this report is on international experience and practice, within the toll roads sector and beyond. The aim is to build on lessons learned from elsewhere and to make recommendations to state and federal agencies in Australia on how overbidding for future concessions might be disincentivised.},

abstract = {A public sector comparator (PSC) represents the hypothetical, risk-adjusted cost of a project—such as a road scheme—when that project is financed, owned and implemented by government. A PSC is commonly used in public procurement decision- making as a yardstick against which private investment proposals are evaluated. Using original material released by the UK Highways Agency for the first time, the author recreated the PSCs used for the evaluation of the first eight road projects to be promoted under the UK's private finance initiative (PFI). Alternative assumptions regarding project risks were modelled using different levels of optimism-bias uplift, and the impact on value- for-money of using different discount rates was evaluated. Public sector comparators have attracted considerable attention in the literature as they retain a pivotal role in the policy decision to use—or not use—private finance. However the fact that their detail is usually kept confidential by public sector procuring agencies—because of commercial sensitivi- ties—has restricted informed discussion and open debate. Now the architecture of these comparators is laid bare for critical examination. It has generally been assumed that any reduction in the discount rate used in PSC calculations will favour conventional pro- curement over PFI-type contracting arrangements. The research reported in this paper demonstrates that the relationship between the discount rate and the attractiveness of using private finance is not as simple as has been assumed, and the outcome in terms of value- for-money is not as predictable as has previously been reported.},

The reason presumably is that it is hard to operationalize, because objective safety indicators often involve extremely low probabilities that are hard to grasp and interpret by passengers. In this paper, we propose an operationalization that is based on the perception of safety, which is easy to understand and resonates that perceptions often influence decisions stronger than objective variables. We conceptualize that passengers form a safety perception score of a particular flight based on their perception of airline and route attributes and that this score in turn is traded-off against other flight attributes, such as ticket costs, to arrive at a flight choice. In line with this conceptualization, two stated preference experiments are conducted. In a first experiment, combinations of airline and route attributes are evaluated in terms of safety that is captured on a rating scale. In a second experiment, safety perception is treated as an attribute and traded-off against other flight attributes to arrive at a flight choice. The paper presents the results of a regression and a Panel Mixed Logit model estimated from responses obtained from a convenience sample of 161 air passengers recruited in the Netherlands. The results of both models are then combined to calculate the willingness to pay values for improvements made to a range of airline and route attributes, taking into account socio-demographic variables and psychological traits. As expected, the results indicate that the willingness to pay for improving safety decreases with higher initial safety levels.},

abstract = {While the mixed multinomial logit model is quickly becoming analysts' model structure of choice, this paper demonstrates that some issues arise in retrieving intuitive willingness-to-pay estimates when there are small percentages of respondents exhibiting extreme, non-trading behavior. This is shown to be particularly true for the log-normal distribution which is quite commonly used in practice because of its ability to constrain taste heterogeneity to one side of 0. The authors first use the Danish value of time stated choice dataset to demonstrate the impact of non-trading on mean value of travel time (VTT) estimates when the analyst assumes VTT is normal and log-normally distributed. The authors then move to a synthetic approach to further illustrate the particular issues with the log-normal distribution.},

abstract = {Many games and sports, including races, involve outcomes in which competitors are rank ordered. In some sports, competitors may play in multiple events over long periods of time, and it is natural to assume that their abilities change over time. We propose a Bayesian state-space framework for rank ordered logit models to rate competitor abilities over time from the results of multi-competitor games. Our approach assumes competitors' performances follow independent extreme value distributions, with each competitor's ability evolving over time as a Gaussian random walk. The model accounts for the possibility of ties, an occurrence that is not atypical in races in which some of the competitors may not finish and therefore tie for last place. Inference can be performed through Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation from the posterior distribution. We also develop a filtering algorithm that is an approximation to the full Bayesian computations. The approximate Bayesian filter can be used for updating competitor abilities on an ongoing basis. We demonstrate our approach to measuring abilities of 268 women from the results of women's Alpine downhill skiing competitions recorded over the period 2002-2013. ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR},

abstract = {Only 1{\%} of the world's chess grandmasters are women. This underrepresentation is unlikely to be caused by discrimination, because chess ratings objectively reflect competitive results. Using data on the ratings of more than 250,000 tournament players over 13 years, we investigated several potential explanations for the male domination of elite chess. We found that (a) the ratings of men are higher on average than those of women, but no more variable; (b) matched boys and girls improve and drop out at equal rates, but boys begin chess competition in greater numbers and at higher performance levels than girls; and (c) in locales where at least 50{\%} of the new young players are girls, their initial ratings are not lower than those of boys. We conclude that the greater number of men at the highest levels in chess can be explained by the greater number of boys who enter chess at the lowest levels.},

When the popu-lation of objects being compared is large, likelihood-based analyses can be too computationally cumbersome to carry out regularly. This presents a problem for rating populations of chess players and other large groups which often consist of tens of thousands of competitors. This problem is overcome through a computationally simple non-iterative algorithm for {\textregistered}tting a particular dynamic paired comparison model. The algorithm, which improves over the commonly used algorithm of Elo by incorporating the variability in parameter estimates, can be performed regularly even for large populations of competitors. The method is evaluated on simulated data and is applied to ranking the best chess players of all time, and to ranking the top current tennis-players.},

Increasing concern 46 regarding air quality has motivated the need for accurate estimates of micro-scale vehicle Energy 47 Use and Emissions (EU{\&}E). Vehicle EU{\&}E rates are related to vehicle specific power (VSP). 48 For a given vehicle, VSP is a function of vehicle speed, acceleration, and grade, each of which 49 can be categorized as " externally observable variables " (EOVs). However, " internally 50 observable variables " (IOVs), such as manifold absolute pressure (MAP) and engine revolutions 51 per minute (RPM), are more predictive of EU{\&}E. Field measurements were conducted for 10 52 on-road vehicles using a portable emission measurement system (PEMS), on-board diagnostic 53 (OBD) scantool, and global position system (GPS) receivers to measure exhaust concentrations, 54 engine activity, and estimate road grade. The product of MAP and RPM (PM×R), and VSP are 55 useful as an indicator of engine load. IOV-based models were developed to predict EU{\&}E rates. 56 The IOV-based models typically perform better than EOV-based models. The models 57 demonstrated could be integrated into next generation traffic simulation programs, as well as 58 vehicle engine control units to provide feedback on real-time emissions.},

abstract = {This paper explores the relationship between characteristics of Transit Oriented Development (TOD) and passenger transit demand with walk access/egress. Two separate Log-linear Cobb- Douglas regression models are estimated for predicting transit ridership with walk access/egress as a function of specific land-use and station-level attributes around commuter rail stations in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). The empirical models are estimated using data from the 2013 GO Rail passenger survey. The first estimated model is a trip production model that predicts the number of daily trips produced per GO Transit station with walk as the access mode to the station. A trip attraction model is also estimated for predicting the daily trips attracted to a GO Transit station area with walk as the egress mode from the station. The empirical models reveal that the station-level passenger trip production is significantly associated with population density and walkability in the surrounding vicinity of the station, as well as the station's frequency of trains, number of bus feeder lines and utilization of parking spaces. Trip attraction by rail at a GO station is shown to be highly related to employment density, frequency of trains, and the relative network distance from the station to the central business district. The study results can form the basis of transportation and land use policies aimed at implementing successful TODs.},

abstract = {In August 2013, all transportation-eligible Minneapolis high school students began using public transportation for school trips and other purposes instead of yellow school buses under the Go-To Student Pass Program. Currently under the program close to 6,000 students are allowed 6 unlimited rides on city buses and light-rail trains between 5 a.m. and 10 p.m. seven days a week during the school year. Having fully implemented the Go-To Student Pass program in Minneapolis high schools and with the program being active for close to three years, both, Minneapolis Public Schools and Metro Transit are interested in exploring potential benefits of the program for students. Despite the implementation of similar programs across the country evaluation of these programs in terms of student benefits, attendance and academic achievement in particular, have been limited and anecdotal. This paper is a direct response to the local and national need for rigorous empirical examination of the academic benefits of student transportation on transit and focuses on looking at the impacts of the Go-To Student Pass Program on student GPA and attendance of Minneapolis high school students.

abstract = {The objective of this paper is to investigate the role of built environment (focusing on walking route characteristics) in determining the Walking Catchment Area (WCA) of rail transit station. In a proposed conceptual framework, two types of walking route attributes, Actual Walking Impedance and Overall Walking Experience determine the size of WCA by influencing General Waling Effort in distinct modes. Consequently, the Kishi's Logit PSM (KLP) model and OLS regression model are respectively applied to quantify the effects of different walking route attributes on WCA. In the KLP model, trade-offs are measured between walking distances and walking impedance based on transit users' sated preferences data. The OLS regression attests that walking experience contributes in pedestrians' underestimation/overestimation of perceived walking time, and thereby affects the size of WCA. With the improvement of some walking route characteristics, the before-and-after change is recognized in size of WCA.},

abstract = {One of the main obstacles that has challenged peer-to-peer (P2P) ridesharing systems in operating as stand-alone systems is reaching a critical mass of participants. Toward this goal, we propose what we call the P2P ride exchange mechanism to increase matching rate and customer retention in a ridesharing system. This mechanism gives riders the opportunity to purchase other riders' itineraries while it provides suitable alternative rides to the sellers, thus increasing the service rate in a ridesharing system. The proposed mechanism aims to maximize expected user surplus, is robust towards selfish user manipulation, and has very low information requirements. Using numerical experiments, we demonstrate what type of ridesharing systems can benefit the most from P2P ride exchange. Furthermore, we study the impact of customer flexibility on the rate of exchange. If implemented properly, P2P ride exchange can effectively increase the number of served riders and enhance customer loyalty by engaging customers in the ride-matching process.},

While the need to develop freight demand model to better facilitate infrastructure planning and policy development has been clearly recognized for some time, the current state of practice regarding the development of freight demand models lags behind those of passenger travel by a considerable margin. This paper outlines a behavioral agent-based supply chain and freight transportation model for the Chicago Metropolitan Area. This multimodal freight model addresses critical technical and conceptual hurdles that have challenged past efforts by applying agent-based framework in which firm-level decision making processes, including supply chain formation, are simulated at the very disaggregate level. The study tries to demonstrate the use of disaggregate, behavioral-based modeling approaches for evaluating freight policy impacts at the national/regional scale.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2017, National Research Council. All rights reserved.Accurate counts of aircraft operations at unmonitored or partially monitored general aviation airports are difficult to achieve, but they are important because of their effect on the allocation of federal and state airport improvement funds. Impediments to correctly counting aircraft operations include inaccuracies related to the acoustic counters that are commonly used to collect data and errors in the statistical procedures that extrapolate the sample data into meaningful counts. In response to these impediments, the authors developed a measurement technique that uses data from aircraft transponders to determine the occurrence of aircraft operations at these airports. To validate the accuracy of this technique, operations counts calculated from its use at a general aviation airport in the state of Indiana were compared with those obtained from the FAA's Air Traffic Activity Data System database, which contains official operations data reported by airports with towers. This comparison, which was conducted using data for April 2016, indicated that the new technology provided values within 5{\%} of the 7,837 total operations reported by tower operators. The transponder signal-counting technology thus appears to be an effective and inexpensive means of establishing accurate operations counts not only at these airports but potentially at the more than 2,800 of the 3,331 airports in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems that lack associated air traffic control towers.},

abstract = {The biggest challenge facing traffic engineering researchers is how to account for human behavior, a non-physical parameter, in transportation modeling. In fact, a major drawback of existing car-following models is that the human-in-the-loop is not modeled explicitly. This is specifically important since the output from car-following models directly impacts several other factors and measures of effectiveness (MOE), such as vehicle emissions and fuel consumption levels. This paper describes a research effort that attempts to improve an existing car-following model by explicitly considering the characteristics of the vehicle as well as human driving behavior in its mathematical expression. The proposed model is an extension to the Rakha-Pasumarthy-Adjerid (RPA) car-following model, which uses a steady-state formulation along with acceleration and collision avoidance constraints to model the longitudinal motion of vehicles. The dataset used to calibrate and validate the model is extracted from the naturalistic data of the 100-Car study that was gathered by researchers at the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute. An analysis of the proposed modified variant using the aforementioned naturalistic driving data found that the modified formulation successfully integrated the human behavior component in the RPA model and that the new formulation slightly decreases the modeling error.},

abstract = {Transit agencies often focus on developing strategies aimed at reducing travel time to increase passengers??? satisfaction. One strategy used by transit agencies to reduce passenger activity time, and accordingly travel times, is the implementation of all-door boarding ??? a service allowing transit users to board and alight vehicles through any door. The present study uses data collected in Montreal, Canada, to assess the impacts of an all-door boarding pilot project from two points of view: (1) operationally through passenger activity time, and (2) by assessing passenger satisfaction. Operationally, the results reveal that when compared to a similar bus route that does not allow all-door boarding, the all-door boarding strategy shows a savings of five percent in passenger activity time at regular stops, while time savings at high passenger activity stops such as metro stations experienced time savings of around 19 percent. Thus, savings are maximized at stops with high passenger demand. Additionally, with regard to user perceptions, the results reveal that passengers who use the all-door boarding service are more satisfied with bus service, particularly with on time performance. Overall, the results of this study demonstrate that all-door boarding is an effective strategy to improve the quality of service due to the associated time savings and increased customer satisfaction. Finally, the study offers important recommendations to transit planners and policy makers to effectively implement and maximize the benefits of an all-door boarding policy based on statistical analysis and on-site observations.},

abstract = {The present study tackles the topic of the value of waiting time of travellers at public transport facilities, and specifically investigates the factors that influence the waiting decision-making behaviour of passengers at bus stops. The value of waiting time is expressed by the passengers' choices with respect to the commonly encountered scenario of waiting for the bus (hence " accepting " the wait and the associated conditions) or walking off instead (and so " rejecting " the wait). Using a web-based stated-preference survey, a set of responses is collected from travellers who are presented with different combinations of five binary and categorical factors forming scenarios. The five factors are: waiting time duration (short-medium-long), occurrence of delays on the route (often-rare), time of day (day-night), extra cost incurred to travel by bus (yes-no), and provision of seating and shelter at the bus stop (yes-no). A regression analysis is carried out by fitting a logit model, which considers not only the scenario-specific factors mentioned but also the respondent-related attributes of age, gender and frequency of travel by bus. The results suggest that, as expected, key bus service characteristics play an important role in a traveller's decision, with longer waiting time duration, frequent occurrence of delays and the requirement to pay extra to ride the bus, all making it more likely for the passenger to walk off rather than wait. Some environmental factors, on the other hand, appear to have a positive impact, with passengers preferring to wait when it is night time or when seating and shelter are provided at the stop. Further conclusions are that male passengers and younger travellers are more likely to opt for the walk instead of waiting, and that frequent bus travellers are generally more willing to wait than infrequent ones. The paper describes the survey method and results in full.},

abstract = {Real-time performance measurement can provide quality control for productivity improvement and efficient use of resources. Visual roadway snow and ice control (RSIC) performance measurement is common when assessing the state of road surface (snow-covered, icy, bare, etc.), but is generally a subjective assessment made by RSIC operators and/or supervisors. The objective of this project was to pilot-test an objective method for processing real-time thermal imagery comparing roadway conditions in front of, and behind, an active RSIC vehicle. Two cameras were mounted on a plow truck, one forward-facing and one backward-facing, and test imagery was collected in the winters of 2014, 2015, and 2016. Differences in the temperature of the road surface created by the RSIC pass were quantified with a tool developed in MATLAB{\textregistered}. The tool imports the dual thermal video recordings and extracts still images every second. Analysis zones are captured and re-oriented and the difference in image intensity (a representation of temperature change) between the two images is calculated on a pixel-by-pixel basis. The tool was successfully applied to a RSIC service run and the average difference between the front and rear images on a reconnaissance (no plowing or spreading) and plowing pass across 4 minutes (240 frames at one per second) of imagery was calculated at 6.6 and 14.5, respectively (statistically significant at p = .01). While thermal video is well matched to RSIC evaluation, there are a number of challenges that make it impossible to implement this performance measure at a full scale for real-time feedback.},

abstract = {Urban multiuse trails are the backbones of non-motorized transportation networks in metropolitan areas across the United States. These trails provide opportunities for recreation and utilitarian travel, increase access to important destinations, and serve other public purposes. A common rationale for trail development is that users spend money and support retail businesses in trail corridors. Expenditures by local trail users do not constitute new regional economic impacts, but they are important locally and of interest to planners and business owners who view trails as mechanisms to spur local economic activity. Using the results of intercept surveys completed by 1,282 trail users on the Central Ohio Greenway trail network in 2014, the authors estimate the probabilities and patterns that different types of trail users will make expenditures. Approximately one-fifth of users reported spending between US{\$}15 and US{\$}20 for food, drink, and other incidental items. Across all trail users, the average expenditure by individuals was about US{\$}3 per visit. All else equal, cyclists were more than twice as likely than other users to report expenditures. Users visiting trails principally for recreation were 53 percent more likely to spend, while users visiting trails mainly for exercise were about 19 percent less likely. Both longer trips to and on the trails were associated with higher spending. These results can be used to inform local planning, marketing, and economic development activities related to local trail networks.},

abstract = {This paper presents a simplified method for estimating the percentage of drivers who would choose to use a priced facility in place of a free alternative by means of a year of revealed preference data from a variably priced freeway facility in Southern California. The resultant model showed a strong fit to the set of 5,071 bins of data (with an R∗2 value of.869) while using only three easily obtained predictor variables: expected travel time savings by use of the managed lanes, the toll price being imposed, and the relative speeds between the two alternatives at the time the decision is made. This model contrasts sharply with other existing methods of analysis, which often use logit models and require much more detail about the population of drivers. The author then illustrates how these results can be used for planning analyses of other priced facilities with different operational conditions and roadway configurations (specifically, converting a current high-occupancy-vehicle facility to a high-occupancytoll facility) by using only the level of data that would be available from common inductive loops, subject to assumptions about the transferability and generalizability of these results from Southern California to the facility being analyzed.},

abstract = {California State Assembly Bill 981, the Treasure Island Transportation Management Act of 2008, authorized a congestion toll as a component of a comprehensive, multimodal transportation plan to serve the redeveloped Island of Treasure Island in San Francisco. Adopted transportation plans to support the Island's redevelopment calls for a comprehensive, integrated program to manage travel demand on the Island as it develops. This innovative approach to mobility includes a complimentary package of strategies and services including required purchase of transit vouchers by residents, parking fees, and a multimodal congestion pricing program that applies motorist user fees to support enhanced and new bus, ferry, and shuttle transit, as well as bicycle sharing, to reduce the traffic impacts of the project. The transportation system must meet long-term transportation system performance and financial sustainability goals. This paper describes an analysis of alternative congestion toll policies, and identifies the congestion toll policies that are recommended to achieve the long-term goals of the mobility management program. The analysis is based on travel demand forecasting, financial modeling, and stakeholder input. The key finding on both technical fronts is that is that a broad-based but low level toll is most capable of achieving goals. The key finding on political feasibility is that affordability for low income households and must be a key consideration. With respect to the former, the authors find that the most effective way for a transportation management agency to aid in reducing out of pocket transportation spending among low income households is to enable car shedding. To that end, they recommend a multimodal transit discount program that includes, among other elements, a program to accrue toll credits by taking transit. This paper provides insight to practitioners into the role of a congestion toll in achieving transportation system performance goals and in meeting transportation funding needs.},

abstract = {A two-lane highway lane closure work zone is a unique work zone type due to its traffic impact. As one lane of traffic is blocked, it is necessary to implement a traffic control strategy to effectively serve bi-directional traffic. In the sense that the right of way is allocated between two directions sequentially, traffic control at two-lane highway work zones is similar to signalized intersection traffic control. In order to analyze the problem, this study developed two methods: a mathematical capacity and delay model with calculations based on signalized intersection theory, and a VISSIM micro-simulation model calibrated using field observed data. After fine tuning the parameters, the mathematical model was able to make reasonably accurate delay estimates. The study also recommended a smaller vehicle random arrival adjustment in the stochastic delay model compared to Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2010 recommend value for signalized intersections. The developed models were applied to optimize two-lane highway lane closure work zone control management. The delay-capacity diagrams indicate that in order to minimize delay, the roadway capacity should be maintained slightly higher than the traffic demand (specifically, the greater of 1.2 times demand or 200 veh/h higher than the traffic demand). Apart from pre-timed traffic control, a dynamic (actuated) traffic control algorithm is also developed in the micro-simulation model to deal with stochastic vehicle arrivals. In the studied traffic scenario,dynamic traffic control is able to achieve lower delay results than the optimal pre-timed signal control.},

The high power consumption for the frequent transmissions becomes burdensome for wireless sensors that rely on batteries to last through periods without sufficient illumination for solar power or for the entire life span of the sensor if it has no external power supply. Radio transmissions are a large power draw, so each transmission that can be avoided directly translates into longer battery life. To reduce communication frequency without a significant loss in the quality of information, a distributed freeway surveillance system was developed that prefilters the data at the sensor unit. Five communication modes were developed that assess the value of the measurements before the decision is made to send or not send the measurements. Key to this event-driven approach is that the receiving end is an intelligent part of the distributed surveillance system (i.e., given the lack of transmission, the TMC will know how to interpret the evolving traffic state at the sensor location in the context of previously received information).},

abstract = {Traffic flow theory has come to a point where conventional, fixed time averaged data are limiting our insight into critical behavior both at the macroscopic and microscopic scales. This paper develops a methodology to measure relationships of density and vehicle spacing on freeways. These relationships are central to most traffic flow theories but have historically been difficult to measure empirically. The work leads to macroscopic flow-density and microscopic speed-spacing relationships in the congested regime derived entirely from dual loop detector data and then verified against the NGSIM data set. The methodology eliminates the need to seek out stationary conditions and yields clean relationships that do not depend on prior assumptions of the curve shape before fitting the data. Upon review of the clean empirical relationships a key finding of this work is the fact that many of the critical parameters of the macroscopic flow-density and microscopic speed-spacing relationships depend on vehicle length, e.g., upstream moving waves should travel through long vehicles faster than through short vehicles. Thus, the commonly used assumption of a homogeneous vehicle fleet likely obscures these important phenomena. More broadly, if waves travel faster or slower depending on the length of the vehicles through which the waves pass, then the way traffic is modeled should be updated to explicitly account for inhomogeneous vehicle lengths.},

abstract = {This paper deals with the derivation of analytical formulae to estimate the effective capacity at freeway merges in a multilane context. It extends two previous papers that are based on the same modeling framework but that are restricted to a single lane on the freeway (or to the analysis of the right lane only). The analytical expression for the one-lane capacity is recursively applied for all lanes. Lane-changing maneuvers (mandatory for the on-ramp vehicles and discretionary for others) are divided into two non-overlapping local merging areas. Discretionary lane-changes are transformed into a lane-changing flow using an appropriate analytical formula. This defines a system of equations whose unknowns are the capacity on all lanes and the inserting flow coming from the on-ramp. A sensitivity analysis shows that vehicle acceleration and the truck ratio are the most influential parameters for the total capacity. The analytical formulae are proven to match with numerical results from a traffic simulator that fully describes vehicle dynamics. Finally, they provide very good estimates when compared to experimental data for an active merge on the M6 freeway in UK.},

abstract = {1 Taxis are vital to modern urban transportation systems. As a great complement to public 2 transportation, taxi services are popular for their flexibility and availability. The ever-increasing 3 magnitude of taxi services has generated a large amount of data about vehicle locations and trips, 4 making it possible to investigate taxi operations in detail. Previous work on this topic has 5 addressed aspects of taxi services such as trip type clustering, visualization of taxi trips and taxi 6 dispatching mechanisms. Based on a data set of taxi trips in New York City, in this paper we 7 analyze a taxi system from some new perspectives. First, from records of fares collected, we 8 investigate driver and passenger behaviors; specifically, what makes some drivers successful and 9 how passengers tip. Second, we study the trips themselves, finding a strong periodicity in the data; 10 for example, the number of pick-ups, the average speed and the average tip ratio are highly 11 periodic in a location-specific manner. This periodicity suggests that each neighborhood in a city 12 has its own " pulse " which makes the taxi system of a city behave in a predictable fashion. Third, 13 we examine the impact of various socio-cultural factors on taxi operations. For example, the 14 average tip ratio of taxi trips can be affected by the outcome of a sports game; fans tip more when 15 their teams win. These results indicate a close connection between taxi systems and human 16 activities, further connecting the pulse of a city to the operation of its taxi systems.},

abstract = {Over the last few decades, there have been two parallel streams of driving behaviour research: models using trajectory data collected from the field (using video recordings, GPS, etc.) and models using data from the driving simulators (where the behaviours of the drivers are recorded in controlled laboratory conditions). While the former source of data is more realistic, it lacks information about the driver and is typically not suitable for testing effects of future vehicle technologies and traffic scenarios. On the other hand, driving behaviour models developed using driving simulator data may lack behavioral realism. However, there has not been any previous study which compares these two different streams of mathematical models and investigates the transferability of the models developed using driving simulator data to real field conditions in a rigorous manner. The present paper aims to fill in this research gap by investigating the transferability of the car-following models between a driving simulator and a comparable real-life traffic motorway scenario. In this regard, stimulus-response based car-following models have been developed using two different microscopic data sources: (i) experimental data collected from the University of Leeds Driving Simulator (UoLDS) and (ii) the detailed trajectory data collected from Interstate 80, CA, USA. The parameters of these car-following models are estimated using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation technique and transferability of the models are investigated using statistical tests of parameter equivalence and Transferability Test Statistics. Estimation results indicate transferability in the model level but not in the parameter level.},

abstract = {This  paper  explores  the  acceptance  of  vehicular  gaps  by  pedestrians  at  marked mid-block crossings. The pedestrian and vehicle interactions spots were identified and data were collected at  two  marked mid-block  crossing  locations  in  Delhi  and  Chandigarh  in  India  using  video cameras. The rejected and accepted vehicular gap sizes were extracted using frame by frame data extraction process resulting in 2174 lag/gap data points. The methods considered in this study  are Raff's  Method, Harder  method,  Ashworth  method,  Logit  method,  Maximum likelihood   method,   Probability   equilibrium   method,   HCM   Method,   and   Difference minimization method. The violations of accepted and rejected gaps with respect to the critical gap have been explored for the evaluation of different methods using “Violation Percentage” and “Violation Ratio”. The Violation Percentage indicates the magnitude of violations and the Violation Ratio indicates the central tendency of the estimated critical gap with respect to the observed accepted and rejected gaps. It was observed that the low critical gap values observed in  mixed  traffic  conditions  lacking  lane  discipline  are  an  indication  of  the  high  risk  taking tendency of pedestrians and unsafe pedestrian crossing movements. The paper concludes that the  critical gap of 3.1 seconds by Raff's method and difference minimization method is a logical and fair estimate of the critical gap, followed by maximum likelihood and probability 18equilibrium method.},

@inproceedings{Jalayer2017,
abstract = {Based on past studies, exit ramp terminals are common locations for drivers to enter a physically separated highway in the wrong direction. Currently, many drivers, especially nonlocal drivers, often rely on voice-guided navigation apps and Global Positioning System (GPS) devices to navigate their routes on and off freeways. A few studies have reported that GPS devices sometimes give drivers wrong information and cause wrong-way entry onto a freeway, especially at some confusing interchanges, such as partial cloverleaf and compressed diamond interchanges. The access points located close to exit ramps may also cause a problem for GPS devices in sending accurate voice-guidance. It is unknown if current GPS devices are capable of properly informing drivers regarding turning movements in advance of exit ramp terminals at some common interchanges. The objective of this study is to evaluate the most commonly used GPS devices/navigation apps to identify existing problems and their potential for reducing wrong-way driving (WWD) incidents at interchange terminals. Field experiments were conducted at 10 common freeway interchanges or interchanges with nearby access driveways in the state of Alabama. Results show that most GPS devices have difficulty in providing correct guidance when the spacing between an access point and an exit ramp is less than 300 feet. The comparison of five different GPS devices used on the same routes reveals that navigation apps have more limitations in guiding drivers than stand-alone GPS devices. Recommendations are offered to help GPS mapping companies improve their devices or add new features to reduce the occurrence of WWD.},

abstract = {In the last decade, both machine-learning and statistical techniques have been expanding, offering new 7 modeling approaches for travel demand analysis. While traditionally, the field of transportation demand 8 analysis has been dominated by statistical models, few studies recently showed that machine learning 9 techniques outperform the statistical models in some instances, notably in their forecasting potential, 10 mainly because of their ability to recognize nonlinear patterns in datasets and to deal with noisy data. This 11 study compares the prediction capabilities of a copula-based model as a statistical approach with an 12 artificial neural network model as a popular machine learning technique for modeling two critical trip- 13 related decisions of travel mode and departure time. The copula approach is employed because these two 14 decisions are highly interrelated, and there are many common influencing factors that affect their 15 outcomes. Furthermore, we are able to compare these models in the contexts of both discrete and 16 continuous decision variables. To do so, we form a joint distribution for error terms of departure time as a 17 continuous variable and travel mode as a discrete variable based on their marginal distributions. The 18 departure time is estimated by a log-linear regression model and the travel mode is estimated by a 19 multinomial logit model. The results illustrate that in addition to much easier and faster implementation 20 process, the neural network model offers a slightly better performance for both target variables. However, 21 these models are not able to easily assess the role of each explanatory variable in estimating the target 22 variables and their black-box nature limits their capability for policy analysis, like examining the effects 23 of variable elasticity.},

abstract = {This paper described a study regarding the influence of comfort and travel related attributes on cyclists' route choice decisions. The study focuses on the physical appearance of the bicycle route. The influence is investigated using a stated choice experiment where respondents were invited to make a choice between two route alternatives. The route alternatives were described using the following attributes: total travel time, available bicycle facility, speed of adjacent car traffic, pavement quality, priority and non-priority at intersections, traffic lights at intersections, and presence of slopes. The experiment was included in an online questionnaire that was filled out by almost 800 respondents who all cycle on a regular base. The influence of the attributes was investigated using a standard multinomial logit model including both main and context effects. The following context attributes were included in the model: bicycle type, trip length and trip purpose, age, and gender. The analyses show that an acceptable model could be specified in which almost all attributes are significant and with expected effects. Comfort related attributes appear to be more important than travel time.},

In this paper a 3 stated choice experiment on mode choice among a sample of the Dutch urban population is 4 presented, in which the particular features of free-floating carsharing and shared autonomous 5 vehicles in comparison to private vehicles and public transportation are examined. The most 6 explanatory and robust mode choice models were obtained by estimating nested logit models 7 with two categories capturing vehicle automation or vehicle ownership, and a nested logit 8 model with three categories capturing who is performing the driving task (the commuter, a 9 human driver or an autonomous vehicle). Interpreted as mode preference, the alternative-10 specific constants of the utility functions reveal a strong impact of vehicle automation on 11 mode choice: while early adopters of mobility trends show a clear preference for shared 12 autonomous vehicles over all other modes, normal and late adopters show a clear aversion 13 towards this mode. In terms of vehicle sharing, no preference of sequentially shared modes 14 over a simultaneously shared bus could be determined. Participants currently not having 15 access to carsharing services show a stronger preference towards free-floating carsharing than 16 the early adopters subscribed to carsharing.},

abstract = {This paper addresses the development of so-called multi-sided platforms providing mobility services to travelers and a user base to the suppliers of these services. Predicting consumer demand for such services, and the impact on traffic flows offer new challenges to transportation researchers. The main reason is that one should take the dynamic interactions between platform owners, service providers and consumers into account. It requires modeling demand for complementary services as well as modeling the supply-decisions by the mobility service providers and pricing and quality decisions by the platform. Consumers need to decide first whether or not to join and become a member of these platforms. In addition to the costs of membership and benefits offered, of which size is a key characteristic, satisfaction with current transport modes is an important factor explaining the success of these platforms. The choice of platform owner may have repercussion of pricing. In turn, service providers will make strategic decisions about detailed fares and the level of service that is offered in order to attract more users. The modeling approach outlined in this paper may be used to assess factors that may lead to substantial increases in market shares for mobility services.},

A web-based survey was developed by researchers from the University of South Florida (USF), and was implemented at four universities in Florida. The survey mainly targeted university population, including students, faculty and staff. This paper is based on the sample collected at the Florida International University (FIU) between November 2015 and February 2016. Ordered logit models were developed to examine the influence of various personal and travel attributes on the two decisions in light of AVs – willingness to pay (WTP) and relocation. The results showed that individual and household attributes, daily travel (commute) characteristics, demand for parking, and perception of AV benefits/concerns showed significant contributions to both decisions. The results of this study are expected to provide insights on how and to what extent different market segments may affect individual's decisions on WTP for AVs and the likelihood of relocation. The findings of this study will provide key inputs to help develop plausible assumptions for further planning and simulation analysis on the implications of AV on travel behavior.},

abstract = {The increasing connectivity in transportation infrastructure is driving a need for additional security in transportation systems. In order to make security decisions in a budget constrained environment, the possible effect of a cyber-attack must be numerically characterized. The amount of an effect is dependent on the level of access and the vehicular demand on the intersections being controlled. The paper proposes a framework for better understand the levels of access and the impact that can be had in scenarios with varying demand. Simulations are performed on a simplistic corridor to provide numerical examples of the possible effects. The paper concludes that the possibility of some levels of cyber threat may be acceptable in locations where the traffic volumes would not be able to create an unmanageable queue. The more intimate levels of access can cause serious safety concerns by modifying the settings of the traffic controller in ways that encourage red light running and accidents. The proposed framework can be used by transportation professionals and cyber-security professionals to prioritize the actions to be taken to secure the infrastructure.},

abstract = {There is a long-running debate in the planning literature about the effects of built environment on travel behavior, and the degree to which apparent effects are due to the tendency of households to self select into neighborhoods that support their travel preferences. Those who want to walk will choose walkable neighborhoods, those who want to use transit will choose transit-served neighborhoods. These households might have walked or used transit more than their neighbors wherever they lived. Most previous studies have shown that individual attitudes attenuate the relationship between the residential environment and travel choices and so the effect of the built environment on travel may be overestimated. But there are other researcher who argue the reverse, claiming that residential preferences reinforce built environmental influences. This study assesses the relative importance of the built environment and residential preferences/travel attitudes for a sample of 1,104 households in the Greater Salt Lake region using structural equation modeling (SEM). For the sake of simplicity, we extracted two factors using principal component analysis (PCA), one representing the built environment and the other representing residential preferences/attitudes. Our findings are consistent with the view that the neighborhood built environment and residential preferences both influence household's travel, that the built environment is the stronger influence, and the built environment affects travel through two causal pathways, one direct and the other indirect, through attitudes.},

abstract = {There has been a growing interest in using traffic conflicts for studying safety from a broader perspective than relying only on collision data. The analysis of traffic conflicts is typically performed through the calculation   of   traditional   conflict   severity   measures   such   as   Time-To-Collision   (TTC),   Post Encroachment  Time  (PET),  among  others. These  measures  rely  on  road  users  getting  within  specific temporal and spatial proximity from each other and therefore assume that proximity is the surrogate for severity.  However,  this  assumption  may  not  be  valid  in  some  driving  environments  where  close interactions between road users are common and sudden evasive actions are frequently used to avoid collisions. Therefore, it is suggested that evasive action-based conflict indicators can assess the traffic conflicts  analysis  in  some  less  organized  traffic  environments.  This  paper  focuses  on  the  severity evaluation of pedestrian conflicts.  Pedestrian evasive actions are mainly reflected in variations of the spatio-temporal gait parameters (e.g., step frequency and step length). The objective of this paper is to compare the use of time proximity and evasive action-based conflict indicators in evaluating the severity of pedestrian conflicts in different traffic environments. Therefore, video data from intersections located in five major cities; Shanghai, New Delhi, New York, Doha and Vancouver are used in this study. The video  data  is  analyzed  using  automated  computer  vision  techniques  to  extract  pedestrian  involved conflicts  and  to  calculate  various  conflict  indicators.  The  results  showed  that  evasive  action-based indicators are more effective in identifying and measuring the severity of pedestrian conflicts than time proximity  measures  in  traffic  environments  such  as  Shanghai  and  New  Delhi.  However,  the  evasive action measures did not show the same potential in Vancouver and Doha where time proximity measures were shown to be more effective.},

abstract = {Freight railroads transport 43 percent of intercity ton-miles of cargo in the United States. 3 Accidents can disrupt rail services and potentially cause significant consequences with respect to 4 human health, property, and the environment. Therefore, it is important to evaluate and manage 5 railroad operational safety based on proper safety metrics. One common metric is train accident 6 rate, which is defined as the number of accidents normalized by traffic exposure. Although 7 empirical (observed) comparisons using this rate have been extensively studied for comparing 8 railroad safety performance, it does not account for random fluctuations in accident occurrences. 9 When these empirical rates differ, it is not well understood what proportion of this difference is 10 caused by stochastic variation and what proportion is reflective of actual safety change. This 11 paper aims to narrow this knowledge gap theoretically and practically. First, a generalized 12 statistical methodology is provided for comparing train accident rates. Based on empirical 13 accident rates, this methodology can determine whether one rate is statistically higher or lower 14 than the other, across different railroads or time periods. This methodology is implemented into a 15 computer-aided decision support tool that allows analysts to perform an automated statistical 16 comparison of train accident rates. The methodology and decision support tool developed in this 17 research can assist the railroad industry in monitoring, evaluating, and comparing these rates. In 18 the future, this research can also support the industry's ongoing initiative in developing a data- 19 driven, safety management system based on a quantitative understanding of past accident data.},

abstract = {It is anticipated that the number of older adults in the United States will reach 70 million before midcentury. Although the majority currently meet their transport needs by driving, one in five older adults does not drive. That statistic is expected to rise as senior drivers experience disability, health-related issues, or both, that negatively affect their driving ability. For many older adults accessible public transportation can be a viable transport option provided they are aware of and familiar with available transit services, trip planning, and how to safely and independently utilize transit systems. Findings are presented from a group travel instruction program piloted with older adults in New Jersey that encompassed classroom training and a field trip. A robust survey evaluation protocol was implemented that yielded findings that included the important role of transportation to older adult quality of life; high participant program satisfaction; evidence of participant knowledge and skills gained after program completion; and participant interest, willingness, and actual usage of public transit after the program. Survey respondents also confirmed several quality-of-life indicators experienced from program participation. In total, these findings offer evidence of the benefits of group travel instruction for older adults with and without a disability as they seek to meet some or all of their travel needs via accessible public transportation. The findings also support the value of offering both classroom and field trip components in older adult travel instruction programs.},

abstract = {This study analyzes the effect of a tradable credit scheme (TCS) on managing morning commute congestion. It uses the single bottleneck model in a discrete time setting, and classifies commuters into groups based on heterogeneity in terms of value of time, schedule delay penalty and desired arrival time. The TCS parameters consist of group-specific credit allocation and time-varying credit charging. Commuters trade credits in the market based on their initial credit endowments, travel needs, and loss aversion attitude. Travelers valuate the charged credits of departure time choice as monetary gains or losses relative to their initial endowments. The existence and uniqueness of equilibrium departure rates, credit price and travel disutility are investigated under this TCS. It is demonstrated that credit price and total value of traded credits approach zero as consumers' loss aversion increases. The TCS parameters that lead to the system optimal solution in terms of the sum of the schedule delay and travel time costs, are derived by applying linear programming duality. Sensitivity analysis is performed to understand the effects of the initial credit allocation scheme on credit price and travel disutility of commuters. The study findings suggest that when the travelers' loss aversion attitude is considered, the credit allocation method is important for determining the departure time choices and credit price.},

abstract = {Developing cities are faced with a number of challenges related to urban infrastructure and mobility. Such challenges include high traffic congestion, rapid urbanization, and increasing number of traffic accidents. Many of these cities have limited or no ongoing sources of data, which is critical to providing intelligent decision support for urban infrastructure and planning. At the same time, the roadways are highly dynamic with a wide varying number of transportation modes sharing the roads and poor road conditions. The authors' overall goal is to determine the infrastructural and behavioral variables that are contributing to poor mobility in developing cities. In this paper, the authors present the Living Roads Framework (LRF), a framework for incorporating non-traditional data sources, specifically smartphone sensors, localized models, and to create contextually relevant transportation applications. The authors demonstrate this framework by mounting adapted smartphones on to ten garbage trucks in Nairobi, Kenya. Inertial sensors on the phones were sampling the roadways at 10-20Hz. From this data, the authors developed local models of road quality, driver behavior, and fuel consumption. The authors' results show relationships between driver behavior and road quality for road segments in Nairobi. Moreover the authors present a preliminary analysis of the relationship between road quality, fuel consumption, and vehicle speeds.},

@inproceedings{Marshall2017,
abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2017, National Research Council. All rights reserved.Not long after the advent of cars, a conflict between traffic and residential livability arose. The typical response pushed traffic off residential streets and onto nearby major roads. This line of thinking evolved into a hierarchical approach to the street networks and arterial roads designed to carry the majority of vehicle traffic. With many researchers identifying traffic on residential streets to be an underlying issue behind poor livability, this solution makes sense. However, is the relationship between residential livability and traffic moderated by the character of the nearby arterial road? By use of a residential study in Denver, Colorado, 10 arterials were partitioned along two dimensions: high and low traffic and high and low design quality. Comparable residential roads within the surrounding neighborhoods were selected to fit descriptions of heavy, moderate, and light traffic, and 723 residents were surveyed. The results suggest that the surrounding street network - in particular, the character of the nearby arterial road - influences the livability of residential areas on the adjacent streets according to a number of livability measures. When income was controlled for, both high levels of traffic and low levels of urban design on the arterial were found to detract from livability in the surrounding neighborhoods, sometimes more so than the residential street traffic itself. This finding should not be taken as a call to shift traffic onto residential streets. Rather, planners and engineers need to take a broader perspective and consider the whole network to understand livability. Livable residential streets can be only part of the solution; more livable arterials are also needed.},

abstract = {In this paper we elaborate on potential use cases of Virtual Reality (VR) in transportation research and planning and present how we integrated procedural 3D modelling and traffic micro-simulation with the rendering capabilities of a game engine in a semi-automated pipeline. Through a review of potential practical applications, we present how this pipeline will be employed to distil behavioural evidence that can guide planners through dilemmas when designing future cycling infrastructure. At the same time, we are studying efficacy of VR as a method for assessing perceptual behaviour as opposed to traditional methods of visualization. Concretely, we present how the pipeline can be adapted i) to generate parameterised visualisations for stated preference surveys, ii) as a platform for a cycling simulator and iii) to communicate different design scenarios for stakeholder engagement. The flexibility of procedural programming allows discretionary changes to the street design and the traffic parameters. Through this experience of developing procedural models, traffic microsimulations and ultimately VR models for streets in Singapore, we find that visual and temporal feedback enabled by VR makes several important design parameters observable and allows researchers to conduct new types of behavioural surveys to understand how people will respond to different design options. In addition, we conclude that such VR applications open new avenues for citizen engagement and communication of urban plans to stakeholders.},

abstract = {High rates of car ownership, changes in land use patterns, the spatial sprawl of residential and job locations, and socio-demographic attributes constitute some of the major obstacles facing carpooling. Adding a number of other psychological factors, such as trust issues between anonymous people, unreliability, and lack of incentive, there is a uncertain future for most carpooling programs. Despite of the documented obstacles and barriers, carpooling remains one of the most effective approaches to remedy the worsening urban congestion if opportunities residing in the social structures can be discovered and amplified. To shed light on how to structure a more effective carpooling programs, this study explores and studies the concept of social carpooling, which aims to mitigate on the challenges of inconveniency and the psychological barriers toward carpooling. Using the supernetwork approach, this study evaluates the attractiveness of carpooling in a social network with the aim of pin pointing different ways of promoting this mode. The framework is applied to a large-scale data set that was collected from the morning rush hour commuters who traveled to The University of Arizona campus. Results show that even though 77.24{\%} of trips cannot be switched to other modes, opportunities exist for the 22.76{\%} of commuters to select more sustainable mobility options. Among these commuters, 13.75{\%} can carpool with others who are also destined at the University campus.},

The short-term scenario 4 represents the immediate transport system response to inundation, which provides a measure of 5 resiliency in the case of an extreme event, such as a storm surge. In the short run, the results reveal 6 that transit captive users will suffer more. Transit, in general, displays less resiliency, at least in 7 part due to the center city's vulnerability and Boston's radial-focused transit system. Trip distances 8 would modestly decrease, and average travel speeds would go down by over 50{\%}. Rail transit 9 ridership would be decimated and overall transit usage would go down by 60{\%}. The long term 10 scenario aims to predict how households and firms would prefer to relocate in the " new equilibrium " 11 where over ten square miles of land disappear and the transport network inundations become 12 permanent. Assuming no supply constraints, new residential growth centers would emerge on the 13 peripheries of the inundated zones, primarily in the inner-core suburbs. Some regional urban 14 centers and traditional industrial towns would boom. Firms would be hit harder, due to their heavy 15 concentration in the inner-core; firm relocation would largely follow households. Transit usage 16 would again be decimated, but walking trips would increase. Results, however, should be viewed 17 as cautious speculation.},

abstract = {1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) are advanced 2 vehicle technologies toward vehicle automation. Evaluating traffic impacts of these systems is of 3 great necessity and is generally carried out via microscopic traffic simulations. A successful 4 simulation requires realistic vehicle behavior and a minimal number of vehicle collisions. 5 However, most existing ACC/CACC simulation studies use simplified models that are not based 6 on real ACC/CACC system operations and rarely discuss the collision avoidance in the 7 simulation. In this regard, this study aims to develop a realistic and collision-free car-following 8 model for ACC/CACC vehicles. We propose a multi-regime model combining a realistic 9 ACC/CACC system with human driver intervention for vehicle longitudinal motions. This model 10 assumes that human drivers resume vehicle control either according to his/her assessment or 11 after a collision warning system requests the driver to take over. We tested the model in a wide 12 range of scenarios to explore the model performance and collision-possibilities. The testing 13 scenarios include three ordinary scenarios of leader deceleration, approaching and cut-out, as 14 well as two extreme safety-concerned ones of hard brake and cut-in. The simulation results 15 showed that the proposed model is collision-free in the full-speed-range operation with leader 16 accelerations within -1 to 1 m/s 2},

abstract = {Daily trips to school can offer many benefits to children, including an opportunity to engage in physical activity, spend time outdoors, and interact with peers without parental supervision. However, the rate of motorized trips for school age children has continued to rise over the past few decades. This has implications for local air quality and broader environmental concerns, as well as public health and safety issues. Several elements of policy and street design have been linked to this decline, including dispersed development patterns and school consolidations making distances impractical to walk or cycle. In addition, parental fears of traffic and crime may be leading many households to prefer to drop children off at school. This study, using four waves of the Montreal-region Origin-Destination survey examines the personal, household, and built-form determinants of active transport to school for children aged 5-16 between the years 1998 and 2013. Binary logistic regression identifies age of child, car use in the home, percentage of four-way intersections as having an impact on active transport to school. In addition, some of these effects are observed to increase in magnitude over time},

abstract = {Analysis of long-distance travel demand has become more relevant in recent times. The reason is the growing share of traffic induced by journeys related to remote activities, which are not part of daily life. In today?s mobile world, these journeys are responsible for almost 50 percent of the overall traffic. Consequently, there is a need of reliable long-distance travel forecast tools. A potential tool is an agent-based simulation. Due to the complex task of destination choice modelling, there are just few agent-based simulations available. This paper presents a continuous target-based simulation that simulates long-distance travel behavior for a long period of time. It is shown how destination choice is modelled in this agent-based simulation. We focus on the holiday destination choice, because it dominates the long-distances trips for the average traveler. The presented approach uses a heuristic to reduce the solution space. Afterwards, the optimal activity duration and activity location is computed simultaneously. This technique ensures a fast computation.},

For the Tier 5 1 supplier stage in the German automotive industry we test the hypothesis that transport risks of 6 long supply chains constitute an even stronger argument for manufacturers of products to cut 7 distances to their suppliers than environmental benefits alone. After going through literature of 8 sustainability assessment in transport and supply chain risk management in general we focus on 9 two specific modules in the manufacturing of passenger cars: seats and flue gas installations. 10 Targeted interviews with production and supply chain managers in the German automotive 11 industry provided profound insights into the risk perception and management strategies of 12 OEMs. With a simple model using these results and literature findings we were able to quantify 13 transport risks, supplier risks and environmental damages related to the distance of Tier 1 14 suppliers to OEMs. The concept of regional logistics networks seems to make s step forward in 15 achieving both goals – sustainability and resilience. We find that sustainability benefits go into 16 the same direction as supply chain risks do, but they are only a supportive argument for reducing 17 distances between OEMs and suppliers rather than a real driver. The transition from “lowering 18 average costs by increasing global networking” to “reduce risks and impacts by strengthening 19 local relations” however may require new planning cultures.},

abstract = {The need for reliable crowd simulation tools has necessitated an accurate understanding of human behaviour and the rules that govern their movements under normal and emergency escapes. This paper investigates the dynamics of merging streams of pedestrians. In the merging sections, the interaction between pedestrians and geometric features of merging sections can significantly impede their collective motion and increase the possibility of flow breakdown particularly under emergency conditions. Therefore, it is important to study human movement characteristics associated with this type of conflicting geometries in order to create safe and efficient designs. In this study, empirical data collected from large numbers of high-density experiments with humans under different desired speed levels are used to explore the effect of different merging configurations (i.e. design and angle) on dynamics of merging crowds. For the first time, the authors examine the impact of elevated speed regimes (as a behavioural proxy of emergency escapes) on the movement efficiency of crowds in merging sections with different geometric designs. In particular, the authors investigate the impact of these conflicting geometric settings on the average waiting time in the system as a measure of movement efficiency. Results suggest that the experienced delay is dramatically greater in asymmetrical setups compared with the delay caused by symmetrical merging configurations and that the difference is even more pronounced under elevated levels of pedestrians' desired speed. These findings give significant insights into the implications of inefficient designs of merging sections for pedestrians' safety, notably when quick movement of crowd is necessary (e.g. in emergencies).},

abstract = {Progress in practical applications of large passively collected data sets is often hindered by the lack of appropriate analytical tools or the proprietary nature of the applicable software. One of the most widely used data sources in the United States is truck global positioning system (GPS) data that is commercially available from a few sources nation-wide. Even though there are many examples of applying large GPS data sets for the development of a truck tour model. The development of a fairly general approach to data analysis and processing that can be readily applied to various GPS data sets without need of proprietary software is still of interest. This paper has two main objectives. The first, to develop a set of tools and techniques to transform the low-frequency truck GPS data available from commercial sources into complete trajectories on the network, i.e., sequences of links comprising continuous paths traversed by each truck with their corresponding timestamps on each of the nodes. For this exercise the authors used only open source software and released their algorithm implementation also as an open source tool under a business friendly license. The second objective of this paper is to expand the use of the truck GPS data beyond the standard extraction of trip matrices and estimation of tour models. Additional applications can include select link analysis, time of day analysis, and trajectory data visualizatio},

abstract = {Connected vehicle technology has the potential to reduce travel times along congested urban corridors. Additionally, this technology may be used to help transportation agencies manage incidents (e.g. lane closures due to an accident) in a way that causes travelers the least delay. The goal of this project is to understand and quantify the effectiveness of deploying Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) technology  for a specific mobility/safety application on a specific urban corridor by creating a queue-warning  application. Effectiveness is determined by investigating the effects of connected vehicles with  active and inactive rerouting strategies on travel time reliability at different market penetration rates (MPRs) and various driver reaction times. U.S. Highway 75 (US75) in Plano, TX is simulated and results reveal that even without active reroute strategies, connected vehicles can reduce the average travel time during an accident. As the presence of connected vehicles becomes more prominent, at market penetration rates of 30{\%} and 50{\%}, the average travel time for all travelers on US75 is reduced and remain relatively stable at higher MPRs. Simulations of connected vehicles with lower reaction times (due to drivers' awareness about the incident) also reveal a decrease in average travel time along the corridor, less fluctuation in travel time at higher MPRs, and increased performance similarity of the five strategies used.},

abstract = {Middle East Technical University (METU) Campus  includes  a large-capacity pedestrian alley among the academic units that encourages walking strongly. But, recent expansion of the campus has threatened walkability and  it has  triggered ongoing  studies  on  pedestrian  level  service  and flows on METU Campus. Based on the prior results, a recent survey was designed to investigate a) pedestrian perspective on walking environments via traditional questions and b) walking limits and  routes for the most  common  destinations via map-based questions.  The study  included 623 student surveys provided data for 1844 walking routes. Though the detailed analyses have not been finalized,yet,this study  focused  on  displaying  the  strength  and  weaknesses of  these  two  data collection techniques.Preliminary findings based on response to traditional questions showed that walking  infrastructure  was  seemed  mostly sufficient,  but students,  especially  females,  stated improvements on lightning, safety precautions, and arrangement for disabled users were further needed. On the other hand, spatial variation of walking behavior (i.e. in routes, walking distances, time, etc.)  was more successfully portrayed by the Geographical Information System (GIS)-based evaluation of the route data.It is the authors' conclusion that both data collection techniques have different advantages in capturing different aspects of pedestrian mobility and walking choices, and should be used jointly as much as possible, to maximize the outcomes of pedestrian data collection efforts. Future  studies should assess the capability  of  route-based data collection via smartphones and internet-based surveys, considering their potential biasedness.},

abstract = {Pedestrian is one of the most vulnerable user at un-signalized midblock section, although it is the most imperative element in transportation system. At un-signalized mid-block sections, some of the vehicles may yield to pedestrians, who are already at crosswalk location. However, some of the pedestrians are using forced gaps to cross the road section, which may increase accident chance. After visualisation of interactions between pedestrians and vehicles, while crossing, it is felt that there is a serious concern towards safety of the pedestrian at unsignalised mid-block sections, particularly under mixed traffic conditions. In order to comprehend the behavior of road users, particularly pedestrians at mid-block crosswalks, present study has investigated the effect of individual characteristics on pedestrian crossing speed at mid-block crosswalks in two different cities. The study analyses that young pedestrians walk faster than the rest. Based on gender, male pedestrians are walking faster than females.From the results, it is also noted that there is no significant difference is observed in the average crossing speed of female pedestrian at different locations.It is observed that the female and elderly pedestrian having same crossing speed of 1.0 m/s with significant contribution in the flow. Study results also show that addition of one lane on either sides of four-lane divided road, gives rise of 3{\%} in crossing speed of young pedestrian. It proves that the pedestrian cruising their speed with increase in the number of lanes. An average crossing speed (50th 21 percentile) of 1.0 m/s is recommended under mixed-traffic conditions, especially in India. For pedestrians, minimum gap of 4.73s is accepted by the young, which is also closer to the critical value, indicating that young pedestrians show higher risk-taking behavior. Considering the safety of pedestrians an average value of 6.2s is recommended whereas, at locations where female or elder pedestrians are in significant proportion, a higher value of 8s is recommended. It has been observed the city characteristics and geographical conditions also reflect in the crossing behavior of pedestrian. The results of the present study may be useful for designing uncontrolled crosswalks at mid-block locations and also suggest suitable remedial measures to improve pedestrian safety.},

abstract = {In many cities of the developing world, institutional public transportation is limited or nonexistent, and inhabitants have to rely on paratransit (informal or semiformal, non-fixed-route, nonscheduled transportation systems) for their travel. Although their flexibility and affordability offer clear advantages, these services are often criticized for their lack of reliability in terms of variations in travel time and waiting time. The body of work on paratransit and the work that characterizes paratran-sit as unreliable are almost exclusively based on self-reported or indirect data. Therefore the aim here is to fill a gap in the paratransit literature by applying concepts from the literature on transit quality of service to the field of informal transport. Indicators traditionally applied to formal transit systems are used to assess the level of reliability of paratransit services in a developing country. In addition, a new indicator is proposed to measure itinerary variations specific to paratransit. It is found that the most appropriate unit of analysis for such research is the station because operations on any given route are influenced by forces at the station level. The general level of variability measured through these indicators was less than expected. Although a wide range of situations was observed in this sample, most paratransit routes appeared to be relatively stable in Accra, Ghana.},

abstract = {Since its introduction to the mainstream seven years ago with the launch of Uber, ridesourcing via transportation network companies (TNC) has become an increasingly viable transportation option across the world. With car manufacturers already showing a willingness to invest in existing TNCs and stated plans throughout the auto industry to offer new TNC services (usually in conjunction with autonomous vehicles), the likelihood of ridesourcing becoming one of the primary means of transportation in the near future is very high. However, Uber and other ridesourcing companies have, on numerous occasions, come in conflict with governmental entities over their various operating procedures. As ridesourcing as an industry continues to grow, the current private-ownership structure of such services will lead to an unnatural risk profile for the mobility of a population: disruptions in service due to management changes or corporate issues, the opportunity for monopolistic practices, the lack of incentive to prevent potential social inequalities in provided services, and the shifting away of traditional public revenue streams, among others, present real challenges for local governments. However, through Public Private Partnerships (P3s), a model already being employed in the United States to design, build, finance, operate, and maintain certain public transit systems, public entities can retain the innovation and efficiency of private-sector operations while harnessing the added value of optimized risk-sharing. This paper explores the potential issues associated with the status quo in ridesourcing ownership structure, examines some of the relationships already beginning to be formed between public transit operators and TNCs, suggests a high-level framework for vehicle ridesourcing under a P3 framework, and explores the benefits of such partnerships. Finally the paper will conclude with a call for political consideration and further research to begin creating template documents for a ridesourcing P3.},

abstract = {Integrated land-use and transportation models address regional issues related to congestion, mobility and economic competitiveness. Essential to this is freight transport, in the form of economic vitality along with distribution and complex interactions between various stakeholders. Within this context, it is critical to capture and accurately describe the behavioral dynamics of these stakeholders (or firms) in the region including modeling firm demographic events of birth, death, growth/decline and migration patterns. This study presents a framework for modeling firm demographics using a microsimulation approach as applicable to the Phoenix and Tucson megaregion. The spatial firm-demographic microsimulator makes use of the National Establishment Time Series (NETS) database of business establishments, thereby evolving them over time and space from 2007 to 2012. A series of econometric models are estimated to simulate the firm events that consider determinants such as firm internal attributes (size, age and growth) and external attributes. Empirical results from the simulation suggest that events of death and relocation are primarily driven by changes in firm internal attributes such as employment size or growth rates. Additionally, locational impacts such as agglomeration economies and access to transportation infrastructure also trigger these events. The simulation results presented in this study are further validated with observed firm demographic trends along with micro-level zonal employment estimated using various goodness-of-fit measures. The firm-demographic microsimulator model presented in this study is unique, as this is one of the first large-scale implementation for a megaregion in the US within the context of simulating demand for commercial transportation.},

abstract = {The paper presents an investigation on the effectiveness of Smart Commute program, a well-established Travel Demand Management (TDM) program in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). It exploits data fusion technique to combine data collected through cross-sectional ex-ante and ex-post surveys at each Smart Commute member workplace. Two types of approaches are used: aggregate statistical analysis and disaggregate choice modelling by using the fused/combined dataset. Results clarify aggregate investigation may not always uncover many behavioral details. Aggregate comparisons of survey data showed that the performances of the smart commute program vary by socio-demographic attributes of the employees including age, employment status, employment shift, and regional municipality of employment. Also, the aggregate investigation showed that the stated willingness to consider ‘bike', ‘walk', or ‘telework' options are not reliable in evaluating the effectiveness of any TDM policy. Complementary to the aggregate investigation, the study explored the effect of Smart Commute on commuters' perception regarding travel attributes using advanced mixed logit model framework. The results of the empirical model revealed that there is higher variation in perception of commuters regarding travel attributes after implementation of TDM interventions. In addition, the perceptions of travel times become more negative after TDM implementation.},

To test this, we construct residential histories of individuals using decades of data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics. We find that past experiences shape transportation futures. Exposure to transit during young adulthood in particular is associated with an auto-light lifestyle and greater transit usage later in life. This research suggests a long-term benefit for encouraging transit at younger ages to foster a “transit habit.”},

abstract = {It has been found that satisfaction with the commute varies according to commute duration and transport mode but the consequences for overall life satisfaction of commuting are unclear. According to economic theory, the adverse impact of long commutes should be compensated for by the benefits they bring. Path analysis is used to test the mediating pathways by which commute time influences life satisfaction. The models are estimated on a sample of 16,841 commuters resident in England, drawn from the UK Household Longitudinal Study. For car drivers and cyclists, commute time is shown to be associated with increased strain and reduced satisfaction with job and with leisure time and hence there is an overall negative association with life satisfaction. Evidence of compensation is apparent from the positive association between life satisfaction and income, job type and residential satisfaction. For public transport users, commute time is only associated with reduced satisfaction with leisure time and not increased strain and reduced job satisfaction. The clear implication is that the subjective wellbeing of employees could be improved by reducing the need for them to make the trade-off between the negative wellbeing impacts of long commutes and positive employment opportunities they bring by facilitating shorter duration commutes. Improvements to public transport journey experience could enable passengers to enjoy their time spent in transit, and hence reduce the negative association between commute time and satisfaction with leisure time availability.},

abstract = {Motorcycles, or powered two wheelers (PTW), have received less attention as a commuting mode than others such as car, public transport and bicycle. More common in warmer countries such as in southern European countries and in densely populated countries, their narrow size and flexibility offer advantages to users in congested urban settings and in other environments too. With recent evidence of increasing demand for more flexible modes e.g. shared bike schemes in Europe, the research presented here looks at use of the motorcycle for work trips in a northern European country - Ireland. One of the questions explored was to see if the profiles of motorcycle work trip users were closer to that of other modes such as bicycle users or drive alone car users - or if motorcycle users had a different profile entirely - as a means of better understanding the potential of the motorcycle mode in satisfying particular user needs. The place of work census data for 2011 was used to examine differences across a number of variables: gender, age, household composition, industrial group, urban vs rural, number of students in households and work trip travel time. The research also examines which of a number of variables are most relevant in determining work trip mode choice with particular emphasis on distinguishing the characteristics of motorcycle work trip users using a multinomial logistic regression. The research finds that the motorcycle work trip user profile most closely resembles drive alone car user profiles across a number of variables.},

abstract = {This paper explores differences in crash scenarios that may be meaningful in designing auditory alerts for connected vehicle systems. As part of an effort to examine safety benefit associated with characteristics of auditory crash warnings with a focus on vehicle-to-vehicle applications three crash scenarios were used; rear-end crash with Forward Collision Warning (FCW) at five sites and 520 total participants, junction crossing crashes with Intersection Movement Assist (IMA), and opposite direction crashes with Left Turn across Path (LTAP) at four sites and 416 total participants. Participants at each site were balanced across gender and two age groups (ages 25-39, 40-55). The same protocol was followed at each data collection site. The characteristics of these crash situations differed. The FCW event had a distracted driver and a visible threat at the time of alert. The IMA and LTAP events had no visible threat at the time of alert and the LTAP event had the complexity of the driver making a left turn without a clear view of the oncoming lane. Results indicate reaction time varies by type of event and whether the driver crashes is determined by not only how quickly the driver responds but also the nature of the response. When an actual threat is visible, the FCW event, or a potential threat can be surmised, the LTAP event, that drivers respond with similar haste. However, the absence of an obvious threat, such as the IMA event, does not lead to an immediate avoidance response to the alert.},

abstract = {New designs, technologies, and rules are all being deployed to make roads more usable for people traveling by a variety of modes: walking, biking, transit, and driving. This paper examines whether and how road user education might be better integrated into the multimodal planning process. Interviews with multimodal transportation planners and education specialists, in addition to content analysis of online educational videos geared toward enhancing bicycle capabilities and awareness, reveal a nexus between the significant changes to roads and facilities proposed by planners and road user education. It is found that some multimodal transportation organizations have adopted practices that support education of current road users, with content and approaches that emphasize safe usability and mode shift. Planners can play a distinctive role in the process of educating current and potential users, helping set the "time and place" for education and the content of educational materials and practices. Still, a lack of agreement is evident for planners as to whether current practices fall within their purview. Hurdles that impede planners' ability to engage in multimodal road user education include inadequate coordination, a lack of funding, and limited training or access to trained specialists and effective content. If users' capabilities to safely use and be aware of multiple modes are seen as essential to communities' mobility objectives, a conceptual shift for planners, adding education to traditional expertise in infrastructure and policy, may be required.},

abstract = {A strategic highway safety plan (SHSP) is a comprehensive, statewide, data-driven safety plan that coordinates activities across agencies to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. In 2015, California updated its SHSP with the input of hundreds of stakeholders. To implement a multiyear effort that involves many primary actors, the challenge is to track decisions and progress in an efficient manner as well as to have in place a state safety program that is accountable and transparent to its stakeholders. The Safe Transportation Research and Education Center at the University of California, Berkeley, developed a tracking tool for California's updated SHSP. The steering committee and other key stakeholders involved in the SHSP implementation phase provided substantial input. The SHSP tracking tool is a user-friendly, low-cost, easily maintained resource that multiple stakeholders update. Written in PHP on a single-page website, the SHSP Tracking Tool is a mechanism that allows users to contact leaders, track progress, run reports, and review performance measures on all SHSP projects. As activities move forward, the tool will provide a primary repository of SHSP internal documents and a community forum through which to evaluate progress and advance the efforts of California's SHSP safety stakeholders. The tool reflects federal and state transportation calls to ensure that safety efforts are data and performance driven and can be adapted for use with any state's SHSP.},

abstract = {Lane-changing activities near freeway merging, diverging, and weaving sections are one major contributing factor to recurrent bottleneck congestion. Active Traffic Management (ATM) technologies such as ramp metering, variable speed limit, queue warning, and dynamic merge control technologies have been proposed to mitigate bottleneck congestion through macroscopic control. The paper proposes a microscopic control solution, the Connected Vehicle (CV) Vehicle-To-Infrastructure (V2I)-based Dynamic Merge Assistance (DMA) method. The method analyzes vehicle trajectory data collected at CV roadside units (RSU) through Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) or cellular communication and implements the “vehicle- gap” pairing, gap synchronization, maintaining, and approaching among mainline and onramp vehicles. The vehicle-gap pairing is determined by dynamically predicting the intersecting points between the “instantaneous virtual trajectories” (IVTs) of mainline and onramp vehicles. The IVTs are calculated according to the prevailing speed profiles on both auxiliary and through lane. Furthermore, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) models are proposed to control both the mainline gap maintaining between the putative leading and following vehicle and the ramp gap approaching of a merging vehicle. The proposed method is evaluated with a simulated network built and calibrated with field data collected on Interstate 35 at Austin, TX during morning peak hours. The proposed method is implemented by using VISSIM external driver model Application Programming Interface (API). The simulation results indicate the reduction on the average travel time at merge sections during congestion and increased time-to-collision (TTC) during merging compared with existing microscopic merge control models.},

With constraints in time, funding, and staffing, many cities are taking a data-driven approach to reduce fatalities as quickly and cost-effectively as possible. The Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT), in collaboration with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (LACDPH), developed a simple—yet powerful—database and analysis tool that now plays a key role in how Los Angeles prioritizes projects, applies for grant funding, and designs for safety on our streets. Moving beyond the macro-level Vision Zero strategy development, this tool provides a more targeted approach to estimating the safety benefit of specific engineering countermeasures. Providing highly customizable queries, the process proposed in this paper can be implemented quickly and applied to improve the work transportation planners and engineers already do on a daily basis, such as apply for grants to fund basic safety improvements.},

abstract = {This paper tests a group decision-making model to examine the school travel behavior of students 6???18??years old in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metropolitan area. The school trip information of 1737 two-parent families with a student is extracted from Travel Behavior Inventory data collected by the Metropolitan Council between the Fall 2010 and Spring 2012. The model has four distinct characteristics including: (1) considering the student explicitly in the model, (2) allowing for bargaining or negotiation within households, (3) quantifying the intra-household interaction among family members, and (4) determining the decision weight function for household members. This framework also covers a household with three members, namely, a father, a mother, and a student, and unlike other studies it is not limited to dual-worker families. To test the hypotheses we build two models, each with and without the group-decision approach. The models are separately built for different age groups, namely students 6???12 and 12???18??years old. This study considers a wide range of variables such as work status of parents, age and gender of students, mode of travel, and distance to school. The findings of this study demonstrate that the elasticities of the two modeling approaches differ not only in the value, but in the sign in some cases. In 63{\%} of the cases the unitary household model underestimates the results. More precisely, the elasticities of the unitary household model are as much as 2 times more than that of the group-decision model in 20{\%} of cases. This is a direct consequence of model misspecification that misleads both long- and short-term policies where the intra-household bargaining and interaction is overlooked in travel behavior models.},

abstract = {Platooning allows vehicles to travel with small intervehicle distance in a coordinated fashion thanks to vehicle-to-vehicle connectivity. When applied at a larger scale, platooning will create significant opportunities for energy savings due to reduced aerodynamic drag, as well as increased road capacity and congestion reduction resulting from shorter vehicle headways. However, these potential savings are maximized if platooning-capable vehicles spend most of their travel time within platoons. Ad hoc platoon formation may not ensure a high rate of platoon driving. In this paper we consider the problem of central coordination of platooning-capable vehicles. By coordinating their routes and departure times, we can maximize the fuel savings afforded by platooning vehicles. The resulting problem is a combinatorial optimization problem that considers the platoon coordination and vehicle routing problems simultaneously. We demonstrate our methodology by evaluating the benefits of a coordinated solution and comparing it with the uncoordinated case when platoons form only in an ad hoc manner. We compare the coordinated and uncoordinated scenarios on a grid network with different assumptions about demand and the time vehicles are willing to wait.},

abstract = {Automated vehicle technology is rapidly advancing, and the idea that driverless cars can replace conventional automobiles is becoming more and more of a reality. The movement towards autonomous vehicles has the potential to have profound impacts on urban infrastructure. As personal cars became the primary mode of transportation, cities sprawled outward and reallocated large amounts of the built environment to highways, roads, and parking lots. When autonomous vehicles are widely adopted, transportation infrastructure needs will change, the space required for parking and movement of vehicles can be reduced, and part of the infrastructure used currently for personal vehicles can be repurposed for active transportation facilities and infill development. The policies enacted by the federal, state, and local governments will largely dictate how the authors allow autonomous vehicle to shape built environments. Most of the Federal and State laws and legal precedent focus on the issues of testing and liability around allowing driverless vehicles to operate on roadways. Little is currently being done at the local level to address legal frameworks for how to adopt and use this new mode of transportation. Unless there is a concerted effort to prepare for the potential effects of automated vehicles on cities, more immediate challenges that solely focus on meeting their demand for road space will supersede more long term implications for how autonomous vehicles will be effectively integrated into cities will be overlooked. This paper explores how cities can incorporate autonomous vehicles in a way that follows existing precedent and laws.},

abstract = {The ability to walk or ride a bike safely to and from metro stations is essential to the success of any metro service, especially if some of these activities are from car users switching to the service. The main purpose of this study is to develop and apply a simple method to be used to assess, compare, and rank the walkability around different metro stations and develop a priority order and specific recommendations for improvements. The proposed method depends on extracting the walkability variables in the catchment areas around the metro stations. Three catchment areas around three proposed metro stations in the emerging city of Doha, Qatar were investigated using the proposed method to demonstrate its usefulness. The method was successful in comparing and ranking the different catchment areas in addition to identifying priority areas for walkability enhancements in each area. This method is simple and can benefit professionals, practitioners, and policy-makers to make fast decisions for future corrective measures, and it can also be used to evaluate changes over time.},

abstract = {Evacuation planning and policy in the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK) exhibit similarities and differences as both nations consist of an auto-dominated society with strong local government traditions related to emergency planning. This paper is drawn from focus groups in five major cities in the US and interviews conducted in the UK. This paper examines the extent that national policy in both countries addresses large-scale, multimodal emergency evacuation planning for carless and vulnerable populations. It also examines the barriers to effective emergency evacuation planning for these populations. The US could benefit from the policy framework established in the UK which on paper provides a robust top-down and bottom-up approach that includes local, regional and national resilience forums to coordinate such planning activities. While the UK looks ideal on paper, the political reality is that such planning has been ignored by the recent ruling party. The UK could learn from the on-the- ground experiences from US disasters, which can strike anywhere. Five barriers to effective emergency evacuation planning were identified as: 1. Complacency and the overconfidence of plans, 2. National policy structures of emergency response largely ignores the transportation planning process, 3. the secrecy conundrum, 4. Planning efforts focus on political boundaries, which do not recognize functional economic regions that transportation systems serve, and 5. Lack of collaboration across the disciplines of emergency management and transportation planning. Recommendations are presented to promote more effective policy for evacuation panning for carless and vulnerable populations. These include: 1. A national funding model is needed, 2. Establish convener agencies for multimodal evacuation, 3. Engage nonprofits, communities and the private sector in the planning process, and 4. All disasters are not local; more emphasis needs to be placed on regional planning for large-scale disasters.},

abstract = {Eco-driving is a technology that can reduce fuel consumption and emissions at signalized intersections by using Infrastructure-to-Vehicle (I2V) communication system. In this research, eco-driving behaviors of human drivers and automated vehicle were evaluated based on a driving simulator. To minimize the deceleration or avoid the complete stop at the traffic signals, and to ultimately eliminate unnecessary fuel consumptions, the eco-driving guidance provided drivers with speed profile derived from current velocity, distance to the intersection, and remaining green or red time. A total of 43 drivers participated in the driving simulator-based experiments by following the base case and the eco-driving case. At the first experiment, the results showed that the performance of the eco-driving varied a lot by the individual participants. This was because the participants did not closely follow the eco-guidance. At the second experiment, randomly selected 8 drivers from the first experiment were given more time to become comfortable with the interface before the experiments, as well as incentives to motivate them to follow the eco-guidance interface. The second experiment results showed statistically significant about 5{\%} improvements in fuel consumption and emissions over the base case. When the eco-driving case was compared with an automated vehicle case, the automated vehicle improved fuel consumption and emissions between 18-20{\%} over the human-driven eco-driving case.},

abstract = {Research on gender differences in travel behaviour dates back over a century and continues to be of interest to transport scholars, planners, and geographers. This article reviews the gender and mobility literature through the life cycle (i.e. from childhood to adulthood), including the commute to school and work through time and space. The paper examines research focused on child and youth travel to school, the influence of gender on travel to paid work outside the home, and explores the relationship between gender, mobility, space and time. The literature demonstrates how travel patterns are generational and gendered; parents influence mode of travel to school for children (e.g. preventing females from walking to school due to fear of strangers), while the presence of children affects travel patterns to work for parents (e.g. women travel shorter distances to work due to household responsibilities). Complex activity patterns and travel demand exist for women as they enter and experience child-rearing stages of life and are associated with generally carrying out more unpaid labor than men. The way women participate in paid work and unpaid household labor, and how this labor interacts with transport systems (or not), remain important subjects of inquiry deserved of greater attention in research and policy. More research on the generational dimensions of mobility preferences, inter-generational relationships, and mobility differences through the life cycle would provide insight into the shifting nature of gendered mobility and parenting norms over time.},

abstract = {The 2011 UK census revealed large increases in the numbers of people cycling to work in some major urban areas. Whilst this is a positive change, such changes should provoke consideration of the inclusivity of cycling in general. Adults over 65 years undertake 1{\%} of their journeys by bicycle, compared with 2{\%} by those under 65. This compares unfavourably with figures from Germany and Denmark. This paper reports research into the individual pathways which give rise to outcomes of cycling or not, over the age of fifty. A growing body of travel behaviour research concerns how behaviour changes in proximity to life events. A number of life events can occur in later life which entail changes in social roles, time use and travel requirements and alter the feasibility of cycling as a mode of travel. These disruptions can arrive in parallel with age-related changes which alter the capacity and motivation to be physically active. 37 adults aged over 50 from the Bristol area were interviewed to collect personal histories of cycling. The sample was varied in the level of cycling activity reported in the previous last 12 months. The personal histories were used to construct a typology of pathways of cycling development through middle and later adulthood. The personal histories and typology are foundations to better targeted interventions to support cycling in later life by distinguishing pathways through which outcomes arise and identifying processes of re-engagement, dis-engagement or adaptation.},

abstract = {Given that connected autonomous vehicles (CAV) are getting road tested and they may soon become available for public use, significant changes in people's travel behavior and transportation systems are expected. Nevertheless, their potential impacts on travel behavior have yet to be understood and incorporated into transportation plans. Few studies attempted to answer how the presence of CAVs would affect travel behavior and choices such as time-of-day, trip route, and mode of travel. However, due to lack of experimental data and behavioral surveys on CAV use, the existing literature is limited to developing frameworks, speculation of behavioral changes, or hypothesizing their potential impacts. Specifically, there is yet to be any literature published on large-scale travel demand models that account for CAVs benefits. This study aims to develop a methodological framework that utilizes multiclass data fusion and data transferability techniques, which uses data and models from a smaller geographical area (e.g., Chicago and Detroit) to generate the needed disaggregate data in a larger scale (e.g., national level). This framework is able to perform a comprehensive examination on the impacts of CAV in transportation networks. To achieve this goal, an advanced transportation systems simulation model, POLARIS, which simulates both travel behavior and traffic flow, is used to estimate the potential impacts of CAV technologies at a regional- level. The rich output of CAV scenario analysis in POLARIS framework includes information on person- level and household-level socio-demographic attributes as well as detailed activity-travel patterns. Transferable variables such as total trip rates and travel times are also derived from POLARIS. Following that, the authors use Exhaustive CHAID decision tree models for each transferable variable to cluster people into several homogeneous groups through which various types of lifestyles are captured. The best-fitted statistical distribution for each of the final decision tree clusters is then determined to analyze the specific behavior of members of each cluster toward transferable variables. Finally, using an artificial neural network model, cluster membership rules and travel statistics are transferred to the national level to develop a validated baseline national platform for analyzing connected automated vehicles scenarios. The platform that is capable of transferring travel behavior to national level with high level of accuracy will be utilized to test various policies and scenarios that may affect the use of CAV and their national impacts.},

abstract = {Discrete-continuous Joint modeling techniques have been widely used in travel behavior analysis to investigate casual relationship between a discrete choice and its continuous outcome. Recently, copula-based discrete-continuous joint models have well established their application in travel demand modeling, thanks to their flexible and non-restrictive dependency structure. The copula parameter underlines the existence of significant unobserved component that affects both the discrete decision and the continuous outcome. This study extends previous efforts on copula-based joint modeling by incorporating unobserved heterogeneity into a copula-based discrete-continuous joint modeling framework. It examines two scenarios: 1) incorporating unobserved heterogeneity into marginal distributions; and 2) incorporating unobserved heterogeneity into copula parameter. Mixed and non-mixed copula models are developed and examined for weekday non-mandatory out-of-home activity type choice as the discrete decision and episode duration as the continuous variable. The focus of the study is on weekday non- mandatory out-of-home activities. The data used for the purpose of this study comprises 5,000 randomly selected trip-activity observations from the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) Travel Tracker Survey collected in the Greater Chicago Area in 2007-2008. The results indicate that the mixed Frank model with incorporated unobserved heterogeneity outperforms other non-mixed and mixed copula models. Also, estimated copula parameter indicates a strong negative relationship between error terms of discrete choice and its continuous outcome.},

abstract = {1 Cars have symbolic significance beyond their functional purpose, and people often take pride in 2 owning and using them. However, little is known about how this pride is constituted and how it 3 affects travel behavior. This paper provides a conceptual framework for the psychology of car 4 pride and investigates its behavioral implications. We define car pride as the cognitive evaluation 5 of, and emotional response to, the positive self-representation elicited by car ideation, where car 6 ideation refers to the ideation of owning or using a car. A three-stage cognitive evaluation 7 process (symbolization, identity-goal relevance and identity-goal congruence) determines 8 whether, and to what extent, car ideation has a positive effect on self-representation; if it does, 9 positive emotional response will be elicited. Car pride is categorized as personal pride and social 10 pride, and further disaggregated into sub-categories. Using survey data from Shanghai, we 11 empirically measure car pride and examine its relationship with both car ownership and car use 12 behaviors. Structural equation models reveal that (1) using instrumental variables to control for 13 simultaneity, car ownership leads to higher car pride; (2) car pride is positively correlated with 14 preferences for newer, more expensive, larger cars, and for Shanghai's more expensive local car 15 licenses; (3) car pride significantly motivates car use; and (4) car pride is positively correlated 16 with the behavioral intention to buy a new car, choose a luxury car, and avoid car use reduction. 17 Further analysis shows that personal pride and social pride, although highly correlated, have 18 different effects on car-related behaviors: while personal pride correlates more strongly with car 19 price, social pride has a slightly higher impact on car use. 20 21},

abstract = {Recent quasi-longitudinal studies have offered evidence on the causality of the relationship between built environment and travel behavior. However, these studies have focused on residential moves within the same region, thus limiting the extent of movers' exposure to different built environments and possibly underestimating the built environment effects on travel behavior in comparison to self-selection effects. In this paper, the authors explore the relationships between built environment, travel attitudes and travel behavior of people that have moved between totally different urban and transportation contexts, namely US and Greece. A quasi-longitudinal design has been developed, involving 31 Greeks who have relocated back from the US to Greece. They have collected detailed information about their perceived neighborhood characteristics, neighborhood preferences and travel attitudes after relocation. Their findings add evidence to the existing literature identifying a causal relationship between the built environment and car use. For instance, lack of adequate public transportation network and cycle facilities, more difficult access to regional shopping centers and better access to neighborhood amenities in the Greek context were found to be associated with more driving after relocation; lack of safe bike conditions and easy access to public transportation were the most important determinants of changes in bicycle use and walking respectively. The results highlight the importance of a holistic approach (in terms of sustainable land use policies and development of infrastructure for alternative modes of transport) when it comes to enhancing accessibility in a city and consequently reducing car use and increasing walking and bicycle use.},

abstract = {From early studies of time allocation onward, it has been acknowledged that the “productive” nature of travel could affect its utility. At the margin, an individual may choose transit over a shorter automobile trip, if thereby she is able to use the travel time more productively. Alternatively, the recent advancements toward partly/fully automated vehicles are poised to revolutionize the perception and utilization of travel time in cars, and are further blurring the role of travel as a crisp transition between location-based activities. To quantify these effects, we created and administered a survey to measure multitasking attitudes and behavior while commuting, together with general attitudes, mode-specific perceptions, and standard socioeconomic traits (N = 2120 Northern California commuters). We present a revealed preference mode choice model that accounts for the impact of multitasking attitudes and behavior on the utility of various alternatives. We find that engaging in productive activities (i.e. electronic reading/writing and using a laptop/tablet) significantly influences utility and could account for a small but non-trivial portion of the current mode shares. For example, the model estimates that commuter rail and car/vanpool shares would respectively be 0.38 and 3.22 percentage points lower, and the drive-alone share 3.00 percentage points higher, if the option to use time productively while traveling were not available. Conversely, in a hypothetical autonomous vehicles scenario, where the car would allow a high level of engagement in productive activities, driving alone and car/vanpool shares increased by 0.95 percentage points and 1.08 percentage points, respectively.},

On the basis of this, by comparing the priorities of the pedestrian and the right-turning vehicles in the saturated and unsaturated releasing period, the models of pedestrian delay are developed. Finally, the theoretical pedestrian delay calculated through the models is compared with the observed delay by using the field data, and then, the paper analyzes the differences of the pedestrian crossing characteristics of the saturated and unsaturated releasing modes. Conclusions are drawn that the maximum relative error between the calculated data and the observed data is 20{\%} and that the delays of the pedestrian during the saturated and unsaturated releasing are obvious different, the vehicle volumes and the degree of congestion have a great effect on the probability that an acceptable gap occurs and the waiting time of the pedestrian.},

abstract = {Vehicle usage rationing, as a travel demand management policy, has been implemented in several large cities, but the actual activity travel behavior on rationed days has received limited attention in the literature. Under long term vehicle usage rationing, travelers might reschedule their weekly activity time allocation and undertake flexible activities on non-rationed days. To better understand this behavioral response, this paper investigates the variability in time use of car owners on rationed days and non-rationed days using data from a 7-day GPS based activity travel survey. Results from descriptive analysis and two structural equation models suggest that there is a high proportion of intrapersonal variability for maintenance and discretionary activities. Furthermore, socioeconomic demographics such as age and bike ownership have a significant impact on time use patterns under rationing. These findings provide evidence of the variability in time use between rationed and non-rationed days, and suggest that the behavioral response of travelers in rescheduling activities between rationed and non-rationed days should be taken into consideration when analyzing the effects of rationing policy.},

abstract = {Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) have been deployed worldwide as a cost-effective means to mitigate concerns about congestion, safety, environment, and other issues. Researchers commonly use questionnaire surveys to gauge the public's response to the success of ITS deployments in achieving the stated ITS goal of improving customer satisfaction as well as the other goals of strengthening transportation safety, mobility, effi-ciency, productivity, energy, and environmental efforts. To differentiate itself from previous research, this study sought to identify how Michigan travelers who actively sought travel information perceived benefits from advanced traveler information systems (ATIS). Toward this objective, a revealed preference questionnaire survey was developed and linked on the Michigan Department of Transportation's foremost online hub for publicly available travel information, Mi Drive. The survey included questions about the typical sources of travel information, frequency of information use, tendency to alter predeparture travel behaviors as a result of information, and similar topics. The study used ordered logis-tic regression modeling to uncover some key findings, which included the influence of time of year, resident location, and travel information affinity on active ATIS users' perception of ATIS. Discovery of such rela-tionships could enable transportation agencies to enhance the market-ing and operation of ATIS services such as Mi Drive and thus strengthen the systemwide benefits experienced by motorists.},

abstract = {Many transit agencies invest substantial resources in surveying their passengers to generate data used for planning, marketing, and equity analyses. Within the industry, there is considerable interest in replacing traditional paper-based self-complete surveys with new approaches that might lower costs or generate better quality data. However, very limited research has been done to identify the relative performance of different transit passenger survey modes. This paper begins to fill that gap. The research investigates the relative data quality for three different bus passenger survey methods distributed or administered on the transit vehicle: self-complete paper surveys, interviewer-assisted tablet-based surveys, and self-complete online surveys. The research used an experimental design, with the same survey questionnaire distributed via the three survey modes. All factors about the survey and distribution process were kept identical to the extent feasible, so that the only variation would be the survey mode itself. The findings by survey mode are compared in terms of the overall response and completion rates, the completion rate for individual questions, respondent demographics, and labor costs per complete. The study results suggest that many agencies may still find the old-fashioned, low-tech paper survey to be the best option for bus passenger surveys. The paper mode required less labor per complete, and for many of the metrics discussed it generated data that was as good as???or better than???the tablet survey. In addition, the findings suggest that online survey invitations distributed on the transit vehicle are not a good option because they were labor intensive and had very low response rates.},

This study addresses this gap using the before-and-after empirical Bayes method to account for regression to the mean effects and other confounding factors. Locally developed safety performance functions and yearly calibration factors for different collision severities were obtained by using a reference group of urban arterial roads. The evaluation period covers 8 years. Collision records, deployment information, traffic counts, and road geometric data were collected. The results showed consistent reductions in different collision severities; the reductions ranged from 14{\%} to 20{\%}, with the highest reductions observed for severe collisions.

abstract = {The recently introduced concept of Shared Autonomous Vehicle (SAV) system, a taxi system without drivers or a short-term rental car-sharing program with autonomous vehicles, presents great potential to promote ridesharing travel behavior. Given the reliability and flexibility provided by the SAV system, some hurdles in the current ridesharing programs, such as lack of flexibility to handle near term travel schedule changes, can be overcome. However, the existing studies regarding SAV system are limited to non-ridesharing (NR) systems. To fulfill this research gap, this study designed and applied an agent-based model to simulate the performance and estimate the potential benefits of an SAV system with dynamic ridesharing (DR-SAV). The modeled DR-SAV system will assign SAVs to serve vehicle-trips, with similar travel profile as in 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS), in a 10*10 mile grid based city, for each one-minute time step. Two vehicle-trips may voluntarily participate into the ridesharing service, if both of them are willing to share rides with strangers and the additional delay time cost triggered by ridesharing can be offset by travel cost reductions. Preliminary results show that a DR-SAV system can provide more satisfactory level of service compared with an NR-SAV system, in terms of shorter trip delays, more reliable services (especially during peak hours), less Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) generation, and less trip costs. Additionally, the results also indicate that a DR-SAV system can be more environment-friendly in the long run.},

abstract = {The formulation of the static user equilibrium traffic assignment problem (UETAP) under some simplifying assumptions has a unique solution in terms of link flows but not in terms of path flows. Large variations are possible in the path flows obtained using different UETAP solution algorithms. Many transportation planning and management applications entail the need for path flows. This raises the issue of generating a meaningful path flow solution in practice. Past studies have sought to determine a single path flow solution using the maximum entropy concept. This study proposes an alternate approach to determine a single path flow solution that represents the entropy weighted average of the UETAP path flow solution space. It has the minimum expected Euclidean distance from all other path flow solution vectors of the UETAP. The mathematical model of the proposed entropy weighted average method is derived and its solution stability is proved. The model is easy to interpret and generalizes the proportionality condition of Bar-Gera and Boyce (1999). Results of numerical experiments using networks of different sizes suggest that the path flow solutions for the UETAP using the proposed method are about identical to those obtained using the maximum entropy approach. The entropy weighted average method requires low computational effort and is easier to implement, and can therefore serve as a potential alternative to the maximum entropy approach in practice.},

abstract = {Housing affordability has been one of the most persistent national con- cerns in the United States, mainly because housing costs are the biggest item in most household budgets. Urban sprawl has been proved by previous studies to be a driver of housing affordability. Previous studies, how- ever, were structurally flawed because they considered only costs directly related to housing and ignored the transportation costs associated with a remote location. This study sought to determine whether, after transpor- tation costs were taken into account, urban sprawl was still affordable for Americans. Multilevel modeling and the recently released location affordability indexes (LAIs) and metropolitan compactness indexes tested the relationship between sprawl and housing affordability. By controlling for covariates, this study found that in compact areas, the portion of household income spent on housing was greater but the portion of income spent on transportation was lower. Each 10{\%} increase in a compactness score was associated with a 1.1{\%} increase in housing costs and a 3.5{\%} decrease in transportation costs relative to income. The combined cost of housing and transportation declined as the compact- ness score rose. As metropolitan compactness increased, transportation costs decreased faster than housing costs increased, creating a net decline in household costs. This is a novel finding, conditioned only on the quality of the data on which the LAI is based.},

abstract = {The problem of modeling traffic in urban areas is especially relevant because of the urgent need for managing congestion in big cities. In recent years, the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) has been proposed as a macroscopic description of urban traffic. The MFD has been proved useful in the design of control strategies. However, the MFD cannot be properly defined if congestion across the city is heterogeneously distributed and if its characteristics change with time. This situation is common in large cities, and a method for identifying homogeneous areas in space and time is needed. This paper proposes a spatiotemporal clustering method with which to detect homogeneous areas over the network and over time. In each of these areas, an MFD can be defined. In particular, a segmentation method is proposed that can divide the time intervals into segments optimizing the clustering results within each of them. The algorithm is applied to data collected in the city of London, where a control system called SCOOT (split-cycle offset optimization technique) is in operation.

abstract = {The influence of land use policy on people's residential and travel choices may be overestimated because of self-selection effects. In the context of commuting, neighborhood and travel preferences may induce self-selection effects in choices about residential location, work location, and commuting mode. Presumably, such self-selection effects may vary across different job markets. To date, however, no study has been done in developing countries. Therefore, this study aims to fill this research gap by using data collected in Hanoi, Vietnam. A joint model with the above three choices is built by incorporating self-selection effects, where effects of land use attributes are emphasized. Choices of labor-intensive workers (11,344) and knowledge-intensive workers (12,360) are compared. The statistical significance of multiple self-selection effects is confirmed, which suggests that the joint estimation of the above three choices is a useful approach. As for the magnitude of influence of self-selection effects, self-selection seems to be more influential in knowledge-intensive workers' residential location and work location choices. As for land use attributes, different types of households, and labor-intensive and knowledge-intensive workers show different responses to different types of land in location choices (especially the work location choice). Effects of land use diversity and population density on the commuting mode choice are mixed. Additionally, the centralization of knowledge-intensive employment and decentralization of labor-intensive employment are captured. These findings may be useful for city planners in Hanoi in designing land use patterns in the future in order to keep knowledge-intensive workers working and living close together.},

abstract = {Many European cities are becoming increasingly dependent on motorized transportation resulting in impacts which range from traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions to sedentary lifestyles and increased risk of non-communicable diseases. The promotion of active modes of travel in urban environments has the potential to mitigate the external costs of motorized transportation while also improving the physical and mental well-being of transport users. The present study considers a modal shift of work commuter trips in favour of active travel in Dublin, Ireland, and quantifies the resulting benefits and detriments to individual transport users and to society. The total impact was found to be strongly positive with the health benefits of increased physical activity dominating the individual benefits and reductions in noise and congestion as the most significant external benefits. The benefits were partially offset by an increase in the cost of road traffic injuries, particularly non-fatal cyclist injuries. Females, and to a lesser extent males, in the age group 25-34 were identified as currently making the most driving trips which would be amenable to being undertaken by foot or by bicycle. Although some uncertainties remain, these results make a strong case for policies and investments aimed at making cycling and walking in cities more attractive in order to alleviate the environmental damage caused by urban transportation and improve public health.},

abstract = {Pedestrian gap acceptance has not been explored to the same degree as vehicle gap acceptance. Although the two are similar in concept, there are a variety of pedestrian characteristics and caveats in the interaction between the pedestrian and vehicle modes that require separate pedestrian gap acceptance models. The objective of this research was to analyze empirical observations collected at 27 sites in Alabama, Florida, and North Carolina and to develop pedestrian gap acceptance models at midblock crossings. Goodness-of-fit tests showed that a probit-based, single-lane gap acceptance model, drawn from a noncontrolled pedestrian crossing data set, yielded the best results (max-rescaled R2 = .69). This model involved only two parameters: the size of the gap length in seconds and a binary variable that distinguished between gaps and lag events (first-arriving vehicle, without a prior lead vehicle, to open the gap). An increase in gap length was associated with an increased probability that a pedestrian would cross, whereas a lag event had a negative coefficient, which meant that a pedestrian was less likely to accept a lag than a gap, given the same length in seconds. Other variables that described crosswalk characteristics as well as pedestrian and driver behavior did not emerge as significant factors in the model. The research reported in this paper offers a new, robust pedestrian gap acceptance model that can be used in traffic operational analysis. The model can be incorporated into microsimulation packages and thus improve the accuracy of pedestrian behavior modeling at midblock crossings in the future.},

abstract = {Predicting the binding mode of flexible polypeptides to proteins is an important task that falls outside the domain of applicability of most small molecule and protein−protein docking tools. Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

abstract = {This paper presents the Dynamic Speed Limit (DSL) experiment that took place in June 2013 on the last 13 km stretch of the B-23 freeway accessing the city of Barcelona (Spain). The DSL system installed on that freeway in addition to the high density of surveillance equipment available makes this stretch a suitable highway lab. The objective of the experiment was to construct a comprehensive database of traffic engineering variables on a freeway site when different speed limits apply. Special attention was paid to ensure similar demand conditions between different scenarios. The experiment included the modification of the speed limits on a freeway segment making use of dynamic signals. Detailed measurements of vehicle counts, speeds, occupancies, lane changing maneuvers and travel times were taken. These simultaneous measurements obtained from very different types of monitoring equipment have been grouped into a single database. These include measurements from inductive loop detectors, radar, ultrasound and passive infrared non-intrusive traffic detectors, TV cameras and license plate recognition devices. The potential of this multi-source database is huge. For instance, a preliminary analysis empirically proves that drivers' compliance with dynamic speed limits is very limited, unless speed enforcement devices are present. In addition, it is also proved that lane changing rates increase together with the occupancy level of the freeway. This comprehensive DSL database, unique in its nature, is made publicly available to the whole research community [Link], [1] in order to use up all its information. The present paper aims to present in detail this DSL experiment and its preliminary results and to contribute in the dissemination of the resulting database. This will facilitate its analysis to any interested researcher, and would lead to a better understanding of the causes and effects of DSL strategies on freeways.},

Transportation models currently lack the sensitivity for these subtle influences on mode 4 choice. This transit-oriented experience survey demonstrates the ability of this data collection 5 technique to provide a rich qualitative and quantitative dataset that clearly traces the changes in transit 6 rider perception through the entire trip chain, while unobtrusively tracking the participant via GPS. 7 The study involved 60 students who were given a smartphone with the survey app installed. These 8 participants took trips by public transit bus, either on a predefined route or for their day-to-day 9 activities. The smartphone survey successfully captured heightened perceptions of anxiety and 10 discomfort when the participants experienced undesirable situations like boarding a crowded bus, or 11 waiting at a bus stop located on a busy street with few amenities. Attributes of the rider experience, 12 such as their emotional state and well-being, were rated by the participants during each state of before, 13 during and after their trip on transit. GPS tracking along with voice and text capture also enabled a 14 contextual understanding of the situation the participants were experiencing. Negative experiences can 15 also influence perception of wait time and travel time during a transit trip. By better understanding 16 rider experience and perceptions, improvements can be made to transit service amenities to provide a 17 more comfortable experience, build rider loyalty, and make transit a more desirable mode choice.},

In the course of the development of WLTP, from 2010 to 2014, the Joint Research Center (JRC) of the European Commission has tested several gasoline and diesel vehicles, on both the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) and on the progressive versions of the WLTP. Emissions of CO₂, NOx, CO, and THC from twenty-one Euro 4-6 vehicles (twelve gasoline and nine diesel) are reported in this paper to provide a preliminary qualitative comparison of gaseous emissions from such vehicles on the two cycles/procedures. The results demonstrated minimal average differences between CO₂ emissions over the NEDC and WLTP. Measured THC emissions from most vehicles stayed below the legal emission limits and in general were lower under the WLTP compared to NEDC. NOx emissions from gasoline vehicles and CO emissions from diesel vehicles did not appear to be much impacted by the change from NEDC to WLTP. On the contrary, NOx emissions from diesel vehicles and CO emissions from low-powered gasoline vehicles were significantly higher over the more dynamic WLTP and in several cases exceeded the emission limits. Results from this study can be considered indicative of emission patterns and could be useful to both policy makers and vehicle manufacturers in developing future emission policy/technology strategies.},

abstract = {To encourage a modal shift to walking, first, it is important to understand and evaluate walkability. While walkability assessment studies mainly deal with perception and built environment aspects, engineering studies focused on evaluation based on pedestrian level of service (PLOS) that rely on flow and infrastructure capacity aspects. This perspective difference and methodological details resulted in requirement of a wide range of data, which vary greatly based on the scope of the study. To evaluate walkability on the campus of Middle East Technical University (METU), Ankara, different analyses were performed with different data sets. The pedestrian flows, counted manually and multiple times a day, were studied in geographica information systems (GIS) environment, which revealed the change of the directionality and volumes of pedestrian activity over time. PLOS evaluations of the campus using Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) and Gainesville methods resulted in high rating with the former and very low ones with the latter. These contradicting ratings for the same campus clearly showed the potential biasedness in evaluations based on the selected approach. Finally, Bluetooth readers were employed at four locations on the pedestrian alley to study dwell and travel times. Despite the low sampling levels, the high variability in pedestrian travel characteristics showed the need for more improved pedestrian data collection and modeling. Lessons learnt from the walkability evaluations on METU Campus are used to develop a list of recommendations on the required pedestrian data types and display for more integrated walkability studies.},

This study integrates these methods by employing a geostatistical analysis of new transit access and income data compilations from the Environmental Protection Agency. By using a national data set spanning variables including income as an equity variable and transit service frequencies and locations at the block group level, this study demonstrates a method for equity analysis and provides results spanning nine large auto-oriented cities in the United States. Results demonstrate variability among cities' transit services to low-income populations, with differing results when viewed at the regional and local levels. Regional-level analysis of transit service hides significant variation through spatial averaging, while the new data employed in this study demonstrates a block-group scale equity analysis that can be used on a national-scale data set. The regions included in this study with extensive rail and bus service are most likely to provide low income and all workers served by transit equitably. The methods used can be adapted for evaluation of transit and other modes' transportation service in areas to evaluate equity at the regional level, and at the neighborhood scale, while controlling for spatial autocorrelation. Transit service equity planning can be enhanced by employing geostatistics to improve local analysis.},

abstract = {The emerging Northern Sea Route (NSR) represents change to the existing liner network for China-EU container shipping. It is necessary to re-examine the container network in this context and assist liner companies in decision-making. This paper assesses the potential of the NSR based on designing a multi-port multi-trip liner service by establishing a two-stage optimization model. Based on the estimated data of NSR shipping, ship routing schemes on both the NSR and conventional routes are proposed. It is determined that container service along the NSR is largely influenced by ice-breaking charge, seasonality, and cargo volume, which makes NSR more likely to act as a supplementary line of the liner network in the short or medium term. The results also indicate that use of NSR may drive the redeployment of shipping network and hub ports in the long term. This study's conclusions may prove useful for strategic planning by liner companies, port authorities, and governments to assess the operation of liner service via the NSR.},

abstract = {Given the aging demographic landscape, the concept of walkable neighborhoods has emerged as a topic of some interest, especially during the last decade. However, very little is known about whether neighbourhood design promotes lower income older adult's travel behaviour. Therefore, the authors i) examined the relation between trip distance and socio-demographic, and mobility related accessibility features of lower income older adults who reside in Metro Vancouver; ii) analyzed mode use behavior of lower income older adults who live in the same geographic area; and, iii) developed a web-based application to calculate the accessibility score (A-score) of lower income older adults in Metro Vancouver based on their travel behavior. The authors used multilevel linear regression to estimate the determinants of trip lengths and a multilevel multinomial model to estimate the propensity of using different travel modes. The authors found that in this lower income older population distance travelled using active modes was associated with gender (men travelled further than women, on average), living arrangement (those residing with a family member other than their spouse travelled further) and whether or not they owned a dog (interaction between dog ownership and walking for transport was positively associated with trip length). As per other reports, increased age was associated with a decreased likelihood of walking as compared to driving. Finally, among the participants all of whom were of low socioeconomic status, older adults who self-identified as a visible minority were more likely to walk than use their car. Taken together these findings lend credence to the role of neighbourhood design and the opportunity landscape (neighbourhood accessibility) to promote active modes of transport in lower income older adults. Therefore, the authors created a web-based calculator that generates an Accessibility (A)- score using Google Maps API v3 that can be used to evaluate neighbourhoods as to their livability for older adults.},

abstract = {Increasing travel demand has negative effects such as increased travel time, excess delay, severe vehicle emission, excess fuel consumption, and a decrease in traveler safety. A solution is needed to maximize the efficiency of the current transportation system operations without building further transportation infrastructure. Autonomous vehicles are currently being investigated as part of the solution. Autonomous vehicles will decrease travel time from origin to destination, increase the safety of not only its passengers, but also nearby autonomous and manual driven vehicles, and decrease land usage. Implementing autonomous vehicles into the current transportation system will require changes to the legal system in addition to changes into how intersections are controlled. Defining who or what will be liable if an accident were to occur will determined with an autonomous vehicle is the type of legal issues that some states are beginning to address. This study provides a comprehensive review on autonomous vehicle technology development, their impacts on safety, mobility, and environment, innovative traffic control and management strategies enabled by autonomous vehicle systems, related infrastructure support and need, liability implication, and risk mitigation. The research findings provide an understanding of autonomous vehicle system development and deployment.},

There is also evidence that opening strategic and 3 business planning processes to broader participation spurs creativity, allows for more adaptive strategic 4 processes, and increases commitment to implement organizational strategies. Crowdsourcing, while it has 5 traditionally been used to engage large networks of customers or other external stakeholders in 6 performing defined tasks, represents a potential methodology for engaging a broad range of employees in 7 creative strategic thinking to define goals and identify, develop and sustain strategies to achieve those 8 goals. 9 This paper describes the application of crowdsourcing principles to the design of a strategic 10 planning process in a research-based public agency, the U.S. Department of Transportation's Volpe 11 Center. The strategic planning process was designed to engage employees and overcome organizational 12 siloes to generate innovative strategies that can improve organizational performance. This paper describes 13 the design and implementation of the strategic planning process, assesses the preliminary results and 14 explains how the selected strategic initiatives will be evaluated based on their contribution to the Volpe 15 Center's Balanced Scorecard outcomes over the next several years. The paper concludes by highlighting 16 lessons learned from implementation of the strategic planning process and discussing the implications of 17 crowdsourcing strategy for established theories of strategic management. 18 19 20},

abstract = {This study investigated potential economic benefits of bikesharing in commercial areas immediately adjacent to bikeshare docking stations. With the use of a sample of five Capital Bikeshare (CaBi) stations in Washington, D.C., an intercept survey of 333 bikeshare users at five CaBi stations at commercial activity centers and a door-to-door survey of 140 local businesses within 1/10 mi of those five CaBi stations were conducted. It was found that many CaBi riders were motivated to use the system because of savings in travel time (73{\%} of users) and cost (25{\%} of users). In addition, 16{\%} of riders reported making new or induced trips because of CaBi, and 23{\%} of users reported spending more money because of it. Income level was positively associated with new trips, spending levels, and spending during new trips. Joining CaBi to save money had a significant positive association with new trips. The business survey showed that 20{\%} of the businesses in the sample reported a positive impact of bikesharing on sales, and 70{\%} identified a positive impact on the area. In addition, 61{\%} would have either a positive or a neutral reaction to replacing car parking in front of their business with a bikeshare station. Businesses that perceived a positive impact on sales from the bikeshare system were more likely to support the expansion of the system and the replacement of car parking with bikeshare stations. Overall, the findings from five CaBi stations in commercial business areas suggests that bikesharing may generate benefits among both users and businesses.},

abstract = {The primary objective of this study was to develop an improved analysis methodology for traffic operations on two-lane highways with a lane closure. Previously developed methodologies have lacked field data calibration or have been unable to accommodate a wide range of two-lane 5 highway work zone conditions. This study addressed these two limitations by using video data 6 collected at three two-lane highway work zone sites in Florida to modify and calibrate FlagSim, a microscopic traffic simulation program capable of modeling flagging control on two-lane highways with a lane closure. Additionally, a full vehicle dynamics modeling approach was incorporated into FlagSim to account for the effect of grade on vehicle performance. The revised version of FlagSim was then used to simulate a wide range of input conditions. Results from these simulation runs were used to develop models for work zone travel speed, saturation headway, total queue delay, and maximum queue length. These equations showed that the work zone conditions (e.g., effective lane width and level of construction activity), roadway conditions (e.g., posted speed and grade), and traffic conditions (e.g., percentage of heavy vehicles) on a two-lane highway with a lane closure can significantly impact traffic operations. These models were incorporated into an analysis methodology and spreadsheet tool that can be used to predict the impact of a lane closure on two-lane highway traffic operations.},

abstract = {? 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor {\&} Francis GroupPrediction of cargo volumes is important for authorities such as port administrations and port operators, as cargo throughput affects port planning and operation. The forecasting results help planners and policy-makers to take decisions on issues such as port investment, port development, berth location selection, port operation, and freight rate. The success of the port operation policy depends on the accuracy of the cargo forecast. This paper presents an improved model known as dynamic regression (DR) model to forecast cargo demand simultaneously for ports within a port system; the model is applied to forecast cargo demand at major seaports in India. Past cargo flow data from years 1980?1981 to 2013?2014 at 11 major ports in India are used for estimating the proposed model. Average prediction error is found to be within 10{\%} for most of the ports. The DR model is used to produce forecasts up to 2019?2020 for all the ports studied. The model forecast is compared with the projections of the Ministry of Shipping, Government of India. This study is intended to provide guidance to planners in taking decisions on issues related to port infrastructure development, such as construction of new terminals and improvement of access roads to ports for the major ports in India. The study will also be beneficial to shipping agencies for their investment strategies in the Indian ports sector.},

Highway incident data from New York City and its surrounding regions before and after Hurricane Sandy was used for the study. Moran's I statistics confirmed that durations of the neighboring incidents were spatially correlated. Moreover, Lagrange Multiplier tests suggested that the spatial dependence should be captured in a spatial lag specification. A spatial error model, a spatial lag model and a standard model without consideration of spatial effects were developed. The spatial lag model is found to outperform the others by capturing the spatial dependence of incident durations via a spatially lagged dependent variable. It was further used to assess the effects of hurricane-related variables on incident duration. The results show that the incidents during and post the hurricane are expected to have 116.3{\%} and 79.8{\%} longer durations than those that occurred in the regular time. However, no significant increase in incident duration is observed in the evacuation period before Sandy's landfall. Results of temporal stability tests further confirm the existence of the significant changes in incident duration patterns during and post the hurricane. Those findings can provide insights to aid in the development of hurricane evacuation plans and emergency management strategies.},

A sample of 250 individuals, from four working centers (i.e. two health centers, Technical University of Madrid and the Faculty of Geography of the Complutense University) and living in Madrid Metropolitan Area (MMA) participated in a Smartphone two waves panel survey, entering travel data for an entire working week. A Mixed Logit model was estimated to analyze travel behavior after a fare increase and the extension of some metro stations. A first result shows that a generalized increase of public transport fare and the extension of Metro stations improve the significance of the income on the choice mode in favor of car-mode and marginally increases the use of Public Transport. Apart from the classical explanatory variables, such as income, travel time and cost, gender, and car ownership, the model incorporates directly built environment variables, and social capital variables, and panel effects correlations. Results clearly show that there are different combinations between explanatory variables (i.e. social capital and built environment variables) and data panel for explaining travel behavior. Therefore there is an overlapping between the use of multi-wave data and the incorporation of new variables related to social capital attributes and Built Environment. These new variables could improve the explanatory and forecasting capacity of travel behavior models even more than multi waves travel data.},

This program funded enhancements to increase walking and cycling to regional transit stations. To understand how the program influenced travel choices, behavior, and perceptions of safety and local air quality, the study surveyed transit users and observed driver, pedestrian, and bicyclist behavior in the periods before and after the enhancements were made at multiple transit stations. Data from the treatment and control stations suggested that the streetscape and roadway improvements made through the SR2T program positively influenced the propensity to walk, bicycle, and take the bus to transit stations, as reported through surveys. In particular, the results showed that walking and bicycling increased by 3{\%} at treatment sites compared with control sites. Bicycling also increased at control sites; this factor indicated a general societal shift. Furthermore, driving decreased 2.5{\%} at treatment sites. Perceived air quality, in general, improved in the posttime period. When asked about perceived traffic risk, bicyclists more than pedestrians reported feeling safer on the road, with 10{\%} of the bicyclists, on average, feeling safer after the improvements. There were also economic benefits from this project—pedestrians and bicyclists were overrepresented in those who stopped en route to transit for food and drink. The evidence suggested that the SR2T program positively affected the decision to walk and bicycle to access transit. The program is recommended for expansion to additional sites.},

abstract = {Bicycle path capacity is of significance for bicycle facilities planning, design and management. With the rapid increase of electric bicycles (e-bikes), the heterogeneous traffic composed with conventional bikes and e-bikes, which use conventional bicycle path, will bring some efficiency issues. This paper proposed a method to derive bicycle path capacity by fitting a relationship between the three fundamental traffic variables: flow, speed, and density. The field data of eleven bicycle path sections were collected in Hangzhou, China in the case study. The results indicated that the mean capacity is about 2512 bicycles/h per meter, and the capacity per meter is not related to bicycle path width. Four important factors of mixed bicycle traffic, e-bikes percentage, male percentage, young rider percentage, and carrying things percentage were introduced to analyze their effect on capacity. It is found that the estimated bicycle path capacity will increase with the increase of the e-bikes percentage or the decrease of carrying things percentage. These findings are valuable to support future studies for design and management of bicycle path under the condition mixed with bicycles and e-bikes traffic flow.},

abstract = {Attempts to integrate sustainability in the decision-making process continue to gain momentum. For transport infrastructure projects, a number of tools and methodological frameworks—such as ratings systems, traditional decision-making techniques, checklists and different evaluation frameworks and models—are available. This paper presents a review on the current assessment tools of sustainability applied to transport infrastructure projects. It begins by providing an explanatory and comparative analysis of the tools and methods in terms of their effectiveness to appraise sustainability. The main finding of this analysis is that despite the availability of numerous tools, none appears to be useful for providing a thorough appraisal of sustainability. While there are positive characteristics associated with each tool, some practical issues remain unsolved. There is also the need for more standardized tools in order to appraise the sustainability of transport projects. This research makes a critical evaluation of the current state of the art to identify limitations of the existing approaches, point out new areas of research, and propose a sustainability appraisal agenda for the future.},

The city of Buffalo, New York, was used as the case study. Various data were collected, and 20 sustainability and livability related performance measures (PMs), including transportation attributes, land use measures, living condition indicators, and systemwide indexes, were developed. Analysis of the PMs raised several policy implications and led to some suggestions. Lessons and challenges from the PM development process are summarized to help other relevant initiatives. The PMs, the supporting database, the case study, and the findings produced by the research are expected to help a wide range of stakeholders, including policy makers, planners, and transportation engineers, to gain more insights into transportation-oriented sustainability and livability performance measurement.},

An approach is proposed to identify the aggressive riders and find out the factors contributed to the modeling of aggressiveness. The authors argue that separating the aggressive PTW riders from the others can help to categorize their behavioral models and be potentially useful for implementation in traffic simulation model for mixed traffic. The study is based on a vehicle trajectory dataset collected from a four-lane urban arterial in Taipei, Taiwan. Results show that vehicle speed, number of overtaking and lane changing actions, and gap acceptances, are factors associated with aggressiveness.},

Decision makers require more accurate and 3 comprehensive information to plan for city transportation. As opposed to traditional paper-4 based and telephone-based surveys, a new efficient and effective data collection method has 5 been recently applied using information technology such as the GPS-based data collection 6 method which can track passengers' trips. Having utilized this new method, the main aim of 7 this study is to analyze the collected data in order to distinguish transportation modes used by 8 passengers using a novel machine learning method called random forest. This model not only 9 classifies transportation modes i.e., car, bus, and walking at a high accuracy of almost 96{\%}, 10 but also determines the most influential attributes in the process of classification based on two 11 importance indices: mean decrease accuracy and Gini index. Results show that instant speed 12 and accuracy of GPS track are the most influential attributes in the transportation modes 13 classification. Transportation planners benefit a lot from this accurate and comprehensive 14 travel behaviors data (used modes) for policy making.},

abstract = {Never before have network airlines been so exposed and vulnerable to low-cost carriers (LCCs). While LCCs had 26.3{\%} of all world seats in 2013, Southeast Asia had 57.7{\%} and South Asia 58.4{\%} - and these figures will only increase. There are many consequences of LCCs on network airlines, including inadequately meeting the expectations of customers, so increasing dissatisfaction, and not offering sufficient value-for-money. Clearly, it is fundamentally important for Asian network airlines to respond appropriately to LCCs. This paper looks at the strategic capability of 22 of the top Asian network airlines in competing with LCCs, which is achieved by analysing questionnaire data from these airlines in terms of 37 competitive responses across six distinct response categories. It is crucial to note that this paper only concerns their capability in competing with LCCs, and it does not consider their overall strength. This paper also investigates how strategic capability varies by Asian sub-region and by airline performance, with performance examined in two respects: by perceived performance and actual performance. The results show that strategic capability varies widely, with Vietnam Airlines possessing the strongest strategic capability to compete with LCCs and SilkAir the weakest. Of others that compete heavily with LCCs, Malaysia Airlines and Garuda Indonesia have strong capabilities, while Philippine Airlines does not. However, all three need to more forcefully respond to LCCs. As a whole, network airlines within Southeast Asia have the greatest strategic capability, and Northeast Asia the weakest. There is a reasonably strong correlation between strategic capability and both actual and perceived performance, which suggests that those airlines with strong strategic capabilities should achieve strong overall performance.},

Since 2005, increased domestic production and decreased oil use have cut U.S. import dependence in half. The direct costs of oil dependence to the U.S. economy are estimated under four U.S. Energy Information Administration Scenarios to 2040. The key premises of the analysis are that the primary oil market failure is the use of market power by OPEC and that U.S. economic vulnerability is a result of the quantity of oil consumed, the lack of readily available, economical substitutes and the quantity of oil imported. Monte Carlo simulations of future oil market conditions indicate that the costs of U.S. oil dependence are likely to increase in constant dollars but decrease relative to U.S. gross domestic product unless oil resources are larger than estimated by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Reducing oil dependence therefore remains a valuable goal for U.S. energy policy and an important co-benefit of mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.},

While not as well known, skateboards can also be used as a means of active travel on transportation facilities. The presence of skateboarders on streets has ramifications for safety, both for skateboarders and other users, as this paper demonstrates. An estimated 43,000 skateboarding injuries occurred on streets in 2013, a plurality of skateboarder injuries. While it is not known exactly how many injuries occurred during skateboard travel versus recreation, approximately 13 percent involve motor vehicles. A skateboarding interest group has found at least 93 cases of skateboard fatalities from 2011-2013. Most fatalities appear to occur on streets and approximately half are transportation related. Federal data also shows 11 skateboarder fatalities just from traffic collisions, in California alone, in 2013. That said, injury rates are moderate, and while skateboard fatality rates are high, they are not exceedingly high, and similar to pedestrians. Incident data from college campuses where skateboard commuting is popular shows that it is possible for skateboard travel to occur more or less without serious incident. More data is needed to completely understand safety. However, it appears that while skateboarders are certainly vulnerable road users, skateboarding is not so unsafe that it cannot be a viable mode of travel.},

Data were collected at thirty locations in the Nanjing area in China. The Pearson's Chi-square test and the analysis of variance were conducted to make a comparison between the levels of comfort perception among different rider groups. The ordered probit models were developed to explore the relationships between the comfort perception of the riders of two-wheeled vehicles and various explanatory variables. The factors that significantly affected the comfort perception of two-wheeled vehicle riders included the type of two-wheeled vehicles, the volume of two-wheeled vehicles, the proportions of e-bikes and e-scooters in two-wheeled vehicles, the peak periods, the physical separations between the motorized, bicycle and pedestrian lanes, the slope of bicycle lanes, the roadside access points and land use. Compared to bicycle riders, the e-bike and e-scooter riders were more likely to have a low level of comfort perception. The level of comfort perception of riders decreased considerably during peak periods, and with an increase in the volume of two-wheeled vehicles. The proportions of e-bikes and e-scooters in two-wheeled vehicles negatively affected the comfort perception of the riders. In addition, the presence of physical separations between the motorized, bicycle and pedestrian lanes significantly increased the comfort perception of riders.},

abstract = {Aircraft are responsible for about 2.5{\%} of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions globally. Total aircraft CO2 emissions are expected to triple by 2050 if present trends continue. Surprisingly little public information is available about the fuel efficiency, and therefore carbon intensity, of U.S. airlines. This research seeks to address this gap by assessing the fuel efficiency of major airlines serving the U.S. domestic market from 2010 to 2012 by using airline-reported fuel and operations data. A frontier model was used to develop an efficiency metric that accounts for the fuel that airlines burn to provide both mobility (passenger miles traveled) and access (frequency of service and number of airports served). Recognizing that many main-line carriers receive service from their regional partners, the fuel efficiency assessment incorporates the fuel and operations of regional carriers into the fuel and operations of their respective main-line carriers. Airlines that operate circuitous routes are also distinguished. Alaska, Spirit, and Southwest were among the most fuel-efficient airlines, in contrast to less-efficient carriers such as Allegiant and American, which consumed an estimated 26{\%} more fuel than Alaska on equivalent operations in 2012. Airlines that were the most efficient overall did not necessarily transport a given passenger more efficiently between each city-city pair, because of differences in technology utilization and operations. From 2010 to 2012, the average rate of improvement was estimated to be 1.1{\%} per year, short of existing climate protection goals, highlighting the importance of continued efforts in both technology and policy to reduce emissions from aviation.

abstract = {Most deterministic day-to-day traffic evolution models, either in continuous-time or discrete-time space, have been formulated based on a fundamental assumption on driver route choice rationality where a driver seeks to maximize her/his marginal benefit defined as the difference between the perceived route costs. The notion of rationality entails the exploration of the marginal decision rule from economic theory, which states that a rational individual evaluates his/her marginal utility, defined as the difference between the marginal benefit and the marginal cost, of each incremental decision. Seeking to analyze the marginal decision rule in the modeling of deterministic day-to-day traffic evolution, this paper proposes a modeling framework which introduces a term to capture the marginal cost to the driver induced by route switching. The introduced term describes the “shadow price” of shifting routes, which helps to explain the behavioral tendency of the driver perceiving the cost-sensitivity to link/route flows. After developing a formulation of the marginal utility day-to-day model, its theoretical properties are analyzed, including the relationship between the stable flow pattern and user equilibrium, the invariance property, and the law of diminishing marginal utility. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and compare it to its counterpart without the marginal cost.},

abstract = {The design of traffic signal control has a profound impact on the performance of urban traffic systems. The current traffic signal plans involve complex control logic and have many parameters that need to be set. However, little attention has been given to the evaluation of these plans. Simulation-based signal optimization has been limited, mainly as a result of the heavy computational burden associated with it. This paper reports on the overall structure and the various components of a mesoscopic model for traffic simulation to evaluate and optimize complex actuated traffic signal plans. The model is named MESCOP (mesoscopic evaluation of signal control plans). MESCOP is detailed enough to represent the characteristics of actuated traffic signal plans, including the intersection layout and the detectors. The stochastic processes of the arrival at the intersection and the movement within it are also modeled in detail. The model represents passenger cars, transit vehicles, and pedestrians. The use of MESCOP is demonstrated through its application to a signalized intersection in Haifa, Israel. This intersection is controlled by an actuated traffic signal with transit priority and compensation and queue override mechanisms. Computationally, the results show that MESCOP is very efficient in comparison with microscopic models for traffic simulation, which are often used for similar evaluations. Evaluations of the intersection performance indicate a great potential for this model to improve the design of traffic signals.},

abstract = {Livability is a fairly new concept which is well understood for urban areas but more vaguely defined for rural areas and even is less so for Indian reservations. The need to identify livability issues on Indian reservations necessitates the demand for a methodology for tribes to develop their own livability programs by implementing livability principles and programs with sustainable strategies. A methodology has been developed to identify the important issues for tribal communities. This methodology consists of data collection, analysis and development of the program. It has been implemented on the Wind River Indian Reservation. Analysis of responses from the WINDS III survey, stakeholder surveys and resident surveys found many commonalities regarding livability. Many factors such as youth/recreational centers and public safety are important elements on Indian reservations. From a transportation perspective, well maintained roads and bicycle/pedestrian lanes and paths are significant. By incorporating all the results from the data collection, a definition has been formulated which focuses on a community having well maintained roads with safe pedestrian/bicycle facilities which benefits the people by providing quick access to services such as jobs, health care, and recreational activities by preserving the culture and sovereignty.},

This is called the capacity drop. The magnitude of capacity drop varies over a wide range depending on the local traffic conditions. However, right now it is unknown what determines the capacity drop value. In fact, there is still no thorough empirical analysis revealing a quite reliable relation between the capacity drop and the congestion level. Therefore, this paper tries to fill in the gap by revealing the relation between the vehicle speed in congestion and the queue discharge rate through empirical analysis. Our research studies congested states where speed ranges from 6 to 60 km/h. The queue discharge rate is shown to increase considerably with increasing speed in the congestion. In contrast to previous research, this study draws the relation based on empirical data collected on freeways and the data presents a sufficiently large observation sample. A discussion about the influence of weather and study site characteristics on the discharge rate indicates that the relation needs site-specific calibrations. This study sheds light on a better prediction of capacity drop and a better understand in a theoretical sense on the fluctuation of capacity drop.},

In addition,maintenance trucksmay not be readily available at all times due to stochastic service disruptions. A stochastic dynamic fleet management model is developed to assign available trucks to cover uncertain snow plowing demand. The objective is to simultaneouslyminimize the cost for truck deadheading and repo- sitioning, aswell as to maximize the benefits (i.e., level of service) of plowing. The problem is formulated into a dynamic programming model and solved using an approximate dynamic programming algorithm. Piecewise linear functional approximations are used to estimate the value function of system states (i.e., snow plow trucks location over time). We apply our model and solution approach to a snow plow operation scenario for Lake County, Illinois. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm can solve the problem effectively and outperforms a rolling-horizon heuristic solution.},

The objective of this paper is to find the contributing factors that reduce people's propensity to walk and take transit. The authors undertake a stated preference survey in the Chicago area where questions are based on actual travel experience. A logit choice model is estimated using the data. The authors find that access time, safety from crime, and sidewalk availability to be important factors in influencing the choice to walk to transit. The authors find a drop in willingness to walk when perceived crime increases or when access times increase. Sidewalks encourage the choice to walk. The propensity to walk was not independent of respondent's neighborhood as well as socio-demographic characteristics. Women and those with higher incomes were more willing to abandon walking access due to shifts in prevailing conditions and those without vehicles were less likely to switch away from walking to transit. Using perception indices in the survey, the authors value the impact of changes in perceived crime as well as the availability of sidewalks on the propensity to walk. In addition, the authors estimate the propensity to walk and use transit for a representative resident in each tract of the Chicago metropolitan area. These values are then used to identify census tracts where acute to minimal barriers to walking to transit exist. As expected, the results show that suburban environments are problematic for walk access to transit stations. But the results also identify areas which are well served by transit but that otherwise have other barriers that deter walk access to transit.},

abstract = {$\backslash$n$\backslash$nTransit operations are subject to disruptions caused by events. Some events cause unpredictable disruptions (e.g., signal failures in rail transit and traffic accidents along a bus route operating in mixed traffic). Other events, such as concerts or sport contests, cause foreseen disruptions. In some cases, dynamic functions of running times and demand can be used to predict and model disruptions. Past research has explored the use of operations control to respond to disruptions after service deteriorates, assuming constant running times and demand. The proposed framework enables anticipatory control strategies by dynamically modeling expected changes in running times and demand during events. A holding optimization model formulated to capture dynamics is applied to a simulated transit system experiencing disruptions induced by an unforeseen event and a foreseen event. Controlling operations with an awareness of events has little effect in the unforeseen event case but significantly improves performance in the foreseen event case. Erroneous estimates of the time an event will occur can lead to counterproductive control policies.$\backslash$n},

In twenty-five qualitative interviews with residents of a predominantly Latina/o community California, the authors explore the personal motivations and barriers to cycling among volunteers for and participants of a folding bike loan program. The diverse sample represents a broad cross-section of a small farm town, ranging from a local minister to a prison parolee, a school counselor to staff of a county social service agency. The authors find residents are motivated by concerns for personal and familial wellbeing, including stress reduction, physical health and having a prosocial activity to do with family. Residents expressed a sense of freedom, independence and pride derived from cycling for leisure and utilitarian transportation. Many immigrants related their experiences cycling in California to cycling in Mexico, describing cycling in mixed traffic in the United States as much easier and relaxing than cycling where they grew up. Participants generally had positive or neutral attitudes about driving, but found automobile ownership and maintenance burdensome. Results suggest campaigns to promote cycling among women, immigrants, working families and communities of color will benefit from linking the financial and health benefits of cycling to a broader narrative of personal empowerment, self-sufficiency and lifestyle satisfaction. Results also demonstrate great potential for folding bikes to reduce several major barriers to cycling for working families, including lack of safe storage space, lack of confidence riding large bikes, and the shortage of bike racks on public buses.},

The focus is on normal charging after the last trip of the day, and the alternatives presented are no charging, charging immediately after arrival, nighttime charging, and charging at other times. A mixed logit model with unobserved heterogeneity is applied to panel data extracted from a two-year field trial on battery electric vehicle usage in Japan. Estimation results, obtained using separate models for commercial and private vehicles, suggest that state of charge, interval in days before the next travel day, and vehicle-kilometers to be traveled on the next travel day are the main predictors for whether a user charges the vehicle or not, that the experience of fast charging negatively affects normal charging, and that users tend to charge during the nighttime in the latter half of the trial. On the other hand, the probability of normal charging after the last trip of a working day is increased for commercial vehicles, while is decreased for private vehicles. Commercial vehicles tend not to be charged when they arrival during the nighttime, while private vehicles tend to be charged immediately. Further, the correlations of nighttime charging with charging immediately and charging at other times reveal that it may be possible to encourage charging during off-peak hours to lessen the load on the electricity grid. This finding is supported by the high variance for the alternative of nighttime charging.},

abstract = {This paper introduces a framework for inferring activity-travel given nearby land-use information that can be obtained from location-based social network (LBSN) such as Foursquare. The first component of the framework implements a generic method to acquire land use data from LBSN services which is a prerequisite for the inference algorithm. Three inference algorithms are suggested with brief discussion on the situations where each algorithm might be a better fit. Finally, a case study in which we apply activity inference on a dataset collected in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) during the fall season of 2012. Results are encouraging and clearly suggest that it is possible to automatically infer daily activity- travel, which could significantly reduce personal travel survey burden and allow for long period travel diary data collection that is currently not easily achievable with traditional survey methods.},

Due to this 8 large substitution of the driver by technology, the traffic environment may change substantially. 9 The absence of perception errors and the minimal perception and reaction time of DLC enable 10 them to maintain shorter headways, to apply consistent acceleration and deceleration rates, and to 11 optimize the use of gaps. 12 13 DLC may have a direct effect on at least three major parameters in HCM analysis of uninterrupted 14 flow facilities: (i) The maximum service flow rate (MSFi), which DLC may double; (ii) The 15 adjustment factor for unfamiliar driver population (fP) because DLC are "familiar drivers" due to 16 their advanced routing systems; and (iii) The demand volume (V), which may increase if DLC 17 become a mode for people who currently cannot drive or if DLC serve multiple owners. The 18 effects of these three parameters propagate throughout the analyses and the final effect on the level 19 of service will largely depend on the market penetration and the operational settings of DLC. 20 21 The HCM has some basic capability of analyzing uninterrupted flow facilities with a small portion 22 of DLC. No changes are necessary for the 2020 edition but substantial changes may be needed in 23 the future depending on the features and the popularity of DLC.},

The team currently plays at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, Long Island, NY, with limited public transportation access. They will move 23 miles west to the Barclays Center, an arena in the heart of Brooklyn, NY, with many public transportation options. This study examined fan characteristics which may influence their likelihood of attending Islanders games at the Barclays Center, including familiarity with public transportation, frequency of game attendance, and demographic factors. An online survey of Islanders fans captured fans' transportation behaviors when traveling to Islanders games at Nassau Coliseum and their projected frequency of attendance after the move, among other variables. Binary and ordered logistic regression models tested the significance of fan characteristics on the likelihood they attended a pre-season Islanders game held at the Barclays Center in September, 2013, and on how frequently respondents reported they will attend future games in Brooklyn. For both models, fans who use regional rail every workday, compared to those who do not, were significantly more likely to have attended the pre-season game and to report they will attend future games. Transit-use variables performed stronger in models than variables representing fans' work locations. The results exemplify the importance of familiarity with public transportation options when making mode choice decisions, bolstering the importance of transportation demand management strategies when opening new or relocating existing large event venues.},

Using data collected through a survey of 2149 Northern California commuters, the authors develop binary logistic regression models of the decision to engage in each of eight types of activities on the commute: rest/sleep, use a laptop, use a smartphone, listen to audio, read printed materials, edit papers/printed materials, read electronic documents, and edit electronic documents. Explanatory variables include socio-demographic characteristics and attitudinal and time use factors. The authors model the engagement in each type of activity while traveling by each of five different modes (bicycle, commuter rail, transit, shared ride, and drive alone) – 33 models in all (excluding impractical combinations). The results illuminate the individual-specific traits affecting commuters' propensities to engage in activities while traveling. Those propensities exhibit large differences across modes. Longer commutes result in higher propensities to engage in almost all modeled activities for commuter rail and ridesharing. Age, gender, income, trip distance, education level, attitudes and preferences towards the adoption of technology, familial obligations, expectations about time use, and attitudes towards multitasking all affect the propensity to engage in activities while commuting.},

abstract = {AbstractBackground Transportation as an important component for urban sustainability has been well recognized. Individual and societal well-being are critical indicators of social sustainability. However, little attention, from both a research and policy perspective, has been paid to the impacts of transportation on well-being. With extensive urban expansion resulting from rapid urbanization, commuting has become a physical and mental burden for many residents in the megacities of China because of increasing travel distances and worsening travel experiences. This study aims to contribute to the growing literature on the relationship between transportation and well-being and also to quantitatively test this relationship in the Chinese context using data from a survey conducted in Xi-an, a mega-city of western China. Methods The data used in this study was gathered through a specially designed survey. The survey gathered data on individuals' (1) socio-demographic information, such as age, income, employment status, education, etc.; (2) details of their most recent commuting journey, including travel time and mode choice; (3) current home and job locations; (4) self-reported physical and mental health; (5) travel satisfaction; and (6) satisfaction with life. The survey was conducted between May 15th and June 30th 2013. 1364 valid surveys were collected, including 794 web-based surveys and 570 paper-based surveys. Descriptive analysis was first conducted to explore the sample characteristics and to extract general information related to the commute and subjective well-being of the respondents. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was then used to examine the relationships among socio-demographics, travel time, travel mode choice, commuting satisfaction, and subjective well- being. Results This study finds that commute characteristics, including travel mode choice and level of service, significantly influence commuting satisfaction, which in turn significantly affects overall satisfaction with life. Active travel (i.e. walking and bicycling) commuters had the highest levels of commuting satisfaction. For transit commuters, having to transfer and over-crowding were associated with lower level of commuting satisfaction. For car commuters, congestion on the road could significantly reduce their commuting satisfaction. Commuting time was significantly and negatively associated with commuting satisfaction. In terms of the importance, congestion is the biggest deterrent to the commuting satisfaction, while active travel contributes most to improve commuting satisfaction. Conclusions These findings illustrate that travel model choice and the efficiency and quality of the transportation network not only affects economic activities, but also has significant impact on individuals' well-being.},

abstract = {Wrong way drives on motorways are relatively rare, but – in many cases – cause severe accidents often with harmful consequences. Therefore, they acquire a lot of attention in general public. This paper first illustrates occurrence, causes and consequences of wrong way drives on German motorways based on a literature review. Currently, about 2,000 messages are recorded yearly which on average lead to 200 accidents. In Germany, countermeasures consist of avoiding the emergence of wrong way drives by the design of the interchange or the marking. Furthermore, the ambient traffic is to be warned by means of a fast traffic detection. However, no automated detection through technical systems is used so far for this purpose. Such systems need to be very cost-efficient for a comprehensive application in order to work efficiently despite low accident rates. On behalf of the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy, the investigation presented in this work thus deals with the development of such a cost-efficient system. This was implemented in the form of an energy self-sufficient system based on low power radio technology. The improvement of detection times was shown in laboratory tests. The necessary high detection rate and the low false alarm rate could be demonstrated in a field study. The investigation of the efficiency of a faster warning was carried out with test persons in a driving simulator laboratory. As a result, it can be stated that the use of low cost technologies for the detection of wrong way drives has promising perspectives.},

abstract = {Accurate travel time information not only is valuable for travelers but is critical to transportation agencies for quantifying the performance of their systems. Interest has been increasing in the development of reliable approaches for estimating travel time from various sensor data. Unlike the extensively studied estimation approaches based on point sensor measurements, the use of probe data from closed highway systems has been limited. To complement current understanding, this study developed an approach that used probe data from an electronic toll collection (ETC) system on closed freeways to estimate travel time. This approach differs from studies relying on automatic vehicle identification systems deployed on main lines as well as those estimated from point detectors. The proposed approach breaks down individual journey time into section travel time and fuses the probe data from vehicles that have used the links. The results, which are based on real-world case studies, illustrate the potential of mining ETC data for travel time estimation for both incident-free and incident conditions. In addition, the estimated results capture traffic dynamics better than instantaneous travel time estimates based on point sensor data. More accurate information is thus provided for deriving reliable performance measures to depict travel time reliability.},

abstract = {This paper presents the findings of a mixed logit model that explores the modal shift of active transportation (AT) users of the Angus L. Macdonald Bridge in Halifax, Canada due to the temporary closure of the AT lanes for an extended period of time. It also investigates the preferences of alternative services during the closure, which might address the need of the existing AT users. The modal shift model examines the major determinants that contribute to the shift from AT to other modes, as opposed to being loyal to AT use for the purpose of crossing the bridge. The study uses data from a 2013 questionnaire survey distributed to cyclists and pedestrians who use the Macdonald Bridge in Halifax. The results suggest that commute distance has the greatest influence on modal shift. Additionally, high income individuals are more likely to shift from AT to other modes during the bridge renewal. Conversely, individuals who consider exercise an important reason for using AT will remain loyal to cycling and walking. On the other hand, the model for alternative services includes analysis of four alternatives: 1) free, direct shuttle service; 2) more frequent ferry service; 3) more frequent bus service; and 4) enhancing other services. Mostly, socio-economic, travel attributes and neighbourhood characteristics explain the choice of alternative services. In both models, however, certain travel attributes and neighbourhood characteristics exhibit statistically significant standard deviations},

Significant delays in project delivery can occur if the federal funding is withheld when projects are found to be inconsistent with transportation plans and improvement programs. This issue is especially critical for projects in nonattainment and maintenance areas because an inconsistent project might trigger a conformity failure or delayed determination for the entire plan and/or program. This paper describes the main challenges leading to project inconsistencies are insufficient communication over the changes to projects' design concept and scope, cost, and estimated letting date.

abstract = {Peer-to-peer (P2P) carsharing is a system where a facilitating company connects car owners to car renters. Such systems are relatively new in the U.S. This paper aims understand who is participating in P2P carsharing as a renter (as opposed to as an owner), why they join, whether and how often they rent vehicles, and why. Exploring these questions may provide insight on the potential for P2P carsharing to meet public policy objectives of reducing the impacts of personal vehicle ownership and use and providing mobility options for underserved populations. The analysis is based on 465 study participants who enrolled in a P2P carsharing service in Portland, Oregon during its first two years of operation (February 2012 to June 2014). The data, which come from a series of online surveys, are part of an on-going, multi-year research project and, as such, should be considered early findings. The people who joined P2P carsharing and this study tend to be younger and well-educated, consistent with research on traditional carsharing. Given two trends in vehicle ownership – the longstanding positive correlation with income, and the emerging trend of younger Americans eschewing vehicle ownership in greater numbers than before - the authors created a typology of potential P2P renters to explore reasons for joining and the potential influence of P2P carsharing on vehicle ownership and mobility. The typology consists of: Student Millennials, Non-student Millennials, Lower Income Non- millennials, and Higher Income Non-millennials. Study participants were highly motivated to join simply because they like the idea of P2P carsharing. Not surprisingly, the Higher Income Non-millennials were less motivated by economic reasons. By June 2014, just over half (52{\%}) of the study participants had rented a vehicle through the service. Actual use of the service is negatively correlated with car ownership. There are some early indications that the service may be expanding mobility options for lower income households.},

abstract = {Copyright ? 2015 National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved.Developing mathematical models for accurate estimation of the longitudinal acceleration behavior of drivers and vehicles is an important challenge in traffic engineering. The modeling of vehicle acceleration is complex because of its dependence on vehicle type and human driving behavior. Existing acceleration dynamics models have tied typical acceleration (the maximum acceleration that drivers would use in a free-flow condition) to maximum acceleration models that are descriptive of the maximum acceleration capability of the vehicle. Although this approach generally results in a better fitting of field data that are understandable and predictable, the proposed models do not take into account differing driving behaviors. The research presented in this paper develops a model that overcomes this limitation by explicitly incorporating driver behavior in the mathematical expression of a dynamics-based acceleration model. The proposed model has a flexible shape that allows it to incorporate driver variations. Furthermore, the model is demonstrated to be superior to similar models because it predicts more accurate acceleration levels in all domains.},

This paper assembles available data from a variety of sources to finds quantified evidence of skateboard travel in several places in California. Data from college campuses show skateboard mode shares in the low to mid-single digits. The highest mode share was found at the University of California, Santa Barbara where skateboarders (7{\%}) outnumber those who drive alone (6{\%}) among students. Some college skateboard commuters ride from home to campus as a primary mode, but perhaps more commonly skateboard as a secondary travel mode on multimodal trips. Additional evidence of skateboarding as part of multimodal trips has been found by the Los Angeles Metro transit agency who have found measurable evidence of riders skateboarding to rail stations and bus stops. The California Household Travel Survey finds that skateboarders and riders of similar non-motorized devices take approximately 185,000 trips per day covering nearly 48 million miles per year. The presence of skateboarders on transportation facilities present another user for transportation planners to keep track of.},

abstract = {Synchronized transfers in schedule-based public transport (PT) networks are used to reduce interroute or intermodal passenger transfer waiting time and provide a well-connected service. However, in practice, synchronized transfers do not always materialize because of some stochastic and uncertain factors, such as traffic disturbances and disruptions, fluctuations in passenger demand, and erroneous behavior of PT drivers. As a result, missed direct transfers not only frustrate existing users but also discourage potential passengers from using PT service. This work presents an optimization procedure based on a model predictive control (MPC) to increase the actual occurrence of synchronized transfers in schedule-based PT networks. The procedure aims to reduce the uncertainty of meetings between PT vehicles. MPC uses selected online operational tactics based on real-time data, such as skip stop, speed change, and holding. First a library of operational tactics was built to serve as a basis for the sequential receding horizon control process in the MPC. Then, an event activity network with dynamic moving elements was constructed to represent the logical process of the PT transfer synchronization problem. The MPC procedure for a real-time deployment of operational tactics was explicated. A detailed example was used as an expository device to illustrate the procedure developed, along with a real-life example from Auckland, New Zealand.},

In the latter approach on-street parking places are all equipped with sensors capable of disseminating their status. The results show that search time is decreased for informed 'smart' cars, especially under spatially heterogeneous conditions, for the sensor-based strategy. Furthermore, for the case of the sensor-based strategy, the results point out that smart cars outperform regular cars in terms of walking distance under all circumstances. The positive impacts for the vehicle-to-vehicle strategy are limited to walking distance improvements only.},

abstract = {Spatial transferability of travel demand models has been an issue of considerable interest, particularly for small- and medium-sized planning areas that often do not have the resources and staff time to collect large-scale travel survey data and estimate model components native to the region. Traditional approaches to identifying geographic contexts that may borrow and transfer models between one another involve the exogenous a priori identification of a set of variables used to characterize the similarity between geographic regions. However, this ad hoc procedure presents considerable challenges because it is difficult to identify the most appropriate criteria a priori. To address that issue, this paper proposes a latent segmentation approach: the most appropriate criteria for identifying areas with similar profiles are determined endogenously in the model estimation phase. The end products are a set of optimal criteria for clustering regions as well as a fully transferred model, segmented to account for heterogeneity in the population. The method is demonstrated, and its efficacy established through a case study in this paper that uses the National Household Travel Survey data set for information on weekday activities of nonworkers in nine regions in the states of California and Florida. The estimated model is then applied to a context withheld from the original estimation to assess its performance. The method is found to offer a robust mechanism for identifying latent segments and establishing criteria for transferring models between areas.},

abstract = {One of the solutions suggested for mitigating the detrimental effect of motor vehicles on society is to implement transit-oriented development (TOD). This type of development is intended to reduce automobile use and urban sprawl as well as to provide communities with more socially, environmentally, and economically sustainable neighborhoods that offer a variety of mobility choices. This study attempted to find out whether new residents adopted more sustainable modes of transportation after their relocation to a TOD. The analysis determined which factors influenced travel mode switching decisions by specifying a multilevel multinomial logistic regression model. Data for the analysis were drawn from a travel behavior survey conducted on residents in seven North American TODs in 2013. The results showed that newcomers adopted more sustainable travel modes for amenities and leisure trips after they relocated to a TOD but that they were less likely to do so for work and shopping trips. To encourage more sustainable travel modes, the study findings suggested that transit incentives coupled with work-place parking charges needed to be considered. Factors that were found to increase the probability that new TOD residents would switch to a more sustainable mode of transportation included their awareness of the environmental impact of each travel mode, the ease with which it was possible to walk through the neighborhood and to various destinations, and the proximity to transit stops. However, larger household size, homeownership, and the addition of a new car had negative impacts. The findings provided new insights into TOD planning and its link to travel behavior; these insights could benefit planners, engineers, and policy makers who have adopted the TOD approach to development with the goal of mitigating car usage.},

The preliminary analysis showed that the Weibull distribution provides the best fit to the e-bike trip duration data, and that the duration of men's e-bike trip is about 21.3{\%} longer than that of women's. The random effect accelerated failure time (AFT) models were then developed for men and women separately to evaluate how various factors affect the gender difference in e-bike trip durations. A likelihood ratio test results indicated that the included random effect can capture the unobserved heterogeneity across the population and significantly increase the model fitness. Comparing the estimated random effect AFT models for men and women, it was found that the contributing factors and their impacts on e-bike trip durations are different between men and women. The comparison results revealed the difference in travel patterns between men and women, which explains the gender difference in e-bike trip durations. The validation results showed that the AFT models have good prediction accuracy.  The random effect zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) models were developed to estimate the e-bike trip frequency of men and women. It was found that the random effect can account for the heterogeneity in the e-bike trip frequency data. The ZINB models analyzed the e-bike trip frequency by separating it into two states, including a zero-trip state that determines whether travelers will take trips by e-bike, and a negative binomial trip state that determines the frequency of e-bike trips. In the negative binomial trip state, the contributing factors and their impacts on the frequency of e-bike trips are different between men and women. The research results can promote a better understanding of the gender difference in e-bike trip durations and frequency, which will help develop policies and strategies to promote e-bike usage in urban areas..},

Delay and queuing are among other things dependent on the road capacity, so an accurate estimate of the capacity reduction can potentially lead to improved efficiency of incident management and delay reduction. In this study a new method based on the slope of the cumulative counts is proposed to estimate capacity reductions at the incident site. The method is applied to real world incident scenarios on four lane freeways in Maryland and Northern Virginia. Thirty-two incidents from Maryland and nineteen cases from Northern Virginia meet the requirements to apply the proposed methodology. Results indicate that except for shoulder accident cases, the estimated available capacity ratios during incidents are significantly different from those reported in HCM. It is found that in cases where one driving lane is blocked, the available capacity reduces to 70{\%}. This value reduces to 36{\%} and 17{\%} for two lanes closure and three lanes closure scenarios, respectively. Moreover, it is found that besides less available number of lanes, less efficient use of driving lanes due to changes in driver behavior and distractions is another contributing factor to capacity reduction.},

However, the highly asymmetric usage of such systems leads to an imbalance in the system. The agencies try to balance the system by repositioning bicycles within the system. A very good tool for calculating the desired inventory levels based on the future usage of the system is essential for this activity and ensuring a minimum desired level-of-service to the users. This paper proposes a model for predicting the optimal inventory levels at the stations to take care of the future usage using the historic usage data of the system. The usage at the stations is modeled as a Markov process and the expected penalty values are calculated for the different starting inventory levels. A Mixed Integer Program (MIP) is developed to ensure that the number of bicycles in the system is conserved. The approach is tested for a bicycle sharing system in Antwerp, Velo Antwerpen. The computational times are found to be extremely reasonable. The results show that the levels-of-service can be improved and considerable savings can be obtained for the systems by reducing the resources used in the repositioning operation.},

abstract = {This paper presents a bilevel optimization framework for analyzing the effects of external subsidies and service policy constraints (i.e., fare and service frequency limits) on the operation of public transportation systems. After reviews of existing optimization models for public transit operations, a major deficiency within the centralized optimization framework is identified, namely, its inability to model decision interactions between multiple decision-making agents. A benchmark model that maximizes social welfare is formulated and then extended into a series of bilevel models with combinations of regulation policies and subsidization schemes to explore the relations between operators and government (both subsidizer and regulator). Single-level problems, including both the benchmark and those bilevel programs that can be reduced to one level, are solved analytically. Bilevel programs are solved with a hybrid method combining analytical and numerical techniques. Numerical evaluations that consider the cost of public funds show that (a) the combination of regulation and subsidization scheme yields the highest social welfare, (b) any subsidization scheme without regulation produces socially worse results than the benchmark, and (c) two thresholds can be identified to distinguish the three proposed subsidization methods.},

abstract = {Even in areas with increased levels of bicycling, there remains a significant “gender gap” in bicycling in the United States, in contrast to many other countries with high rates of bicycling. The primary objective of this paper was to explore whether protected bike lanes could help reduce the gender gap. To do so, the authors used survey data from a comprehensive evaluation of protected bike lanes in five large U.S. cities (Austin, TX, Chicago, IL, Portland, OR, San Francisco, CA, and Washington, DC) that included survey responses of 1,111 intercepted bicyclists and 2,283 residents. Both men and women overwhelmingly felt that the lanes increased their safety while riding in them. On several measures of safety and comfort, women bicyclists using the lanes did have significantly more positive associations with the protected lanes than men. A survey of residents, which included people who do and do not bicycle, revealed that women generally feel less comfortable than men bicycling on roadways, though the addition of some physical separation to a striped bike lane, does increase stated levels of comfort to a level that might increase rates of bicycling. Overall, women were also more likely to indicate that the new protected lane had increased their overall levels of bicycling. Analysis of the demographics of the intercepted bicyclists revealed differences between men and women that point to the challenge of increasing women's rates of bicycling, primarily that the women intercepted bicycling were much less likely than men to have children.},

abstract = {Gasoline price increases since 1999 have generated substantial discussion about their effect on travel behavior. With panel data for 10 selected U.S. urbanized areas between 2002 and 2011, this study analyzed the effects of gasoline prices and three factors that were internal to transit agencies-fare, service supply, and service frequency on ridership of bus, light rail, heavy rail, and commuter rail, as well as their aggregate ridership. Improving on past studies on the subject, this study accounted for the simultaneous relationship between service supply and ridership and controlled for factors that were external to transit agencies' control but might have influenced ridership. With fixed-effects models that examined temporal changes within each urbanized area, the analysis found that the possibility of simultaneity was low. The results of estimated coefficients showed that the short-term increase in ridership due to gasoline price increases was relatively small for bus and aggregate transit and marginal for rails, certainly smaller than the effects of the three internal factors. The total influence of the three internal factors was found to be more substantial than that of external factors; this finding indicated the potential to increase ridership by transit agencies' efforts when resources were available. In addition, it is recommended that transit agencies prepare for a ridership increase more for bus than for rail because of gasoline prices, considering that even a small increase could require a substantial service increase to accommodate travelers' needs during peak periods.},

abstract = {This report summarizes the results of year four of a national random-digit-dial public opinion poll asking 1,501 respondents if they would support various tax options for raising federal transportation revenues, with a special focus on understanding support for increasing revenues for public transit. Eleven specific tax options tested were variations on raising the federal gas tax rate, creating a new mileage tax, and creating a new federal sales tax. Other questions probed various perceptions related to public transit, including knowledge and opinions about federal taxes to support transit. In addition, the survey collected data on standard sociodemographic factors, travel behavior (public transit usage, annual miles driven, and vehicle fuel efficiency), and attitudinal data about how respondents view the quality of their local transportation system and their priorities for government spending on transportation in their state. All of this information is used to assess support levels for the tax options among different population subgroups. The survey results show that a majority of Americans would support higher taxes for transportation—under certain conditions. For example, a gas tax increase of 10¢ per gallon to improve road maintenance was supported by 67 percent of respondents, whereas support levels dropped to just 23 percent if the revenues were to be used more generally to maintain and improve the transportation system. For tax options where the revenues were to be spent for undefined transportation purposes, support levels varied considerably by what kind of tax would be imposed, with a sales tax much more popular than either a gas tax increase or a new mileage tax. With respect to public transit, the survey results show that most people want good public transit service in their state. In addition, two-thirds of respondents support spending gas tax revenues on transit. However, questions exploring different methods to raise new revenues found relatively low levels of support for raising gas tax or transit fare rates. Also, not all respondents were well informed about how transit is funded, with only about half knowing that fares do not cover the full cost of transit.},

Using life-cycle analyses (LCAs) of different neighborhood types in Austin, Texas, this analysis fabricates five different city types, reflecting actual accessibility and resident and employment density profiles. Five residential and three commercial neighborhood types are distributed across 16-kilometer (10-mile) radius regions, with demographics held constant, for comparability. As expected, per-capita daily energy demands decrease with increased resident and employment density. Interestingly, embodied energy savings via increases in density are substantial. Though embodied energy makes up only 10-20 percent of total life-cycle energy, per-capita savings via density suggest it should be included in planning analyses. Overall, average life-cycle per-capita energy use ranges from 140 gigajoule (GJ)/year/capita in the least dense Orlando-style setting to around 90 GJ/year/capita in the maximum-density scenario, corresponding to a 35 percent reduction in per-capita energy demand. Energy reductions for Phoenix, Austin, and Seattle settings (relative to an Orlando-based design) are 18, 22, and 24 percent per-capita, respectively. Results provide a rare view of how total annual energy demands in both residential and commercial sectors are affected by density.},

abstract = {Discrete choices are often analyzed statically. The limitations of static models become more obvious when employing them in more long-term travel demand forecasting. The research gap lies in a theoretical model which is dynamically formulated, and in readily available longitudinal data sources. To address this, a heterogeneous hidden Markov modeling approach (HMM) is proposed in this paper to model dynamic discrete choices. Both longitudinal and cross-sectional heterogeneity are considered. The approach is demonstrated on a travel mode choice application using ten-wave Puget Sound Transport Panel data coupled with some other supplementary data sources. Results indicate that travelers' long-term life-cycle stages have an enduring impact when shifted to different mode choice states, wherein sensitivities to travel time and cost vary. Empirical results are put in line with static discrete choice models. The paper demonstrates that the family of HMM models provide the best fitting model. The dynamic model has superior explanatory power in fitting longitudinal data and thus shall provide more accurate estimates for planning and policy analyses. The proposed approach can be generalized to study other short/mid-term travel behavior. The estimated model can be easily calibrated and transferred for applications elsewhere.},

abstract = {Jobs-residence balance is believed to be an important way to reduce commuting distance and related externalities. Although literature on jobs-residence balance is rich, relatively few studies investigate it in relation to employment industry sectors. However, consideration of the unique features of different industry sectors, such as workers' ability and working hours, is necessary to gain useful knowledge. In addition, variability in commuting distance is an important factor often neglected in previous studies. Low variability implies a high potential for car sharing and for use of transportation services. This paper fills the voids of existing literature by investigating three employment industry sectors in relation to both averages and standard deviations of commuting distances. A seemingly unrelated regression model with spatial error was applied to examine the relationship between jobs-residence balance and commuting patterns. The investigation also considered the effects of urban forms, which had been found to be influential in commuting patterns. Two groups of cities, compact and sprawled, were used as the cases of different urban forms. Results showed that jobs-residence balance was more sensitive to the goods-producing sector and to compact regions. Meanwhile, an efficient commuting pattern was associated with a high jobs-residence ratio, clustered industry distribution, and dense road networks with few intersections.},

abstract = {Several decades of research have contributed to the understanding of queuing and pedestrian flows, including the development of empirically-based deterministic models and stochastic microsimulation models – though it is not at all clear how well these models are understood and used by practitioners. To understand the relevance of these models to practice, and in particular to planners and designers of underground rail transit stations, the authors examine how different types of pedestrian flow models are applied in practice and the extent to which these analyses complement the use of published standards and codes that have traditionally guided transit station design. The authors examine two related questions: (1) Do standards and codes complement or supplant analysis of pedestrian flows? And (2) does microsimulation complement or supplant deterministic analyses? To answer these questions, the authors interviewed 15 experts in transit station design, including architects, engineers, and planners. Based on the themes identified in the expert interviews, they conducted an online survey of planners, designers, engineers, and managers at all 16 transit agencies in North America with underground rail transit stations. The authors find that the use of published standards and codes, deterministic analysis, and microsimulation interact in complex ways, and that they are as likely to complement as substitute for one another. Based on these findings, they recommend that future refinements of these analytical models of passenger flow should explicitly consider how practitioners employ them in practice in order to better link these refinements to the more “pedestrian” world of engineering and design practice.},

Data is examined from 4,400 fixed-­‐transit stations (91{\%} rail) across 54 regions in the United States. The study utilizes a Multiple Level Model (MLM) that examines data at both the neighborhood-­‐level and regional-­‐level. This is one of the first studies to include a variable that measures the network accessibility of jobs and population within walking distance of the transit network. Significant variables in predicting the mode share for transit commuting at the neighborhood level include income, population and jobs intensity, nonwhite status, transit technology (ie. light rail/streetcar and heavy rail/metro rail), jobs-­‐population balance, walkability, and transit service frequency. However, the strongest predictor was the regional network accessibility variable. The results of this study support policies that promote TOD at both the neighborhood and regional scales. Given that only 20{\%} of stations across the United States achieve a minimum density of 15 units per acre, the findings of this study should guide planners and policy-­‐ makers to encourage TOD to boost the mode share of transit commuting in station areas where the infrastructure already exists, but where walkable TOD-­‐style development is currently lacking. INTRODUCTION The United States is best know globally as a nation of roads, highways, and automobiles while few studies have examined the network of over 4,500 fixed-­‐transit nodes, including the built environment around these stations. Transit-­‐Oriented Development (TOD) is increasingly becoming a popular way to orient neighborhoods and regions for the goal of boosting mode shares of transit commuting. Studies of travel behavior and the built environment have disaggregated the building blocks of TOD into components such as density, land use mix, and urban design (1, 2). Most travel behavior studies of residents in close proximity to rail stations have been limited in scale and geography. From a design-­‐scale perspective, previous studies tend to focus solely on household and/or neighborhood-­‐scale variables, ignoring the importance of network accessibility of regional transit systems to access jobs and people. This study overcomes this limitation by including neighborhood and regional-­‐level variables into a multiple-­‐level model (MLM). Moreover, the study is national in scope and includes data from 4,400 station areas across 54 regions. Travel and the Built Environment As a share of all travel, commuting represents only 22{\%} of all trips across the United States (3) and public transit commuting has remained relatively constant at approximately five percent of all workers from 1990 – 2009 (4). However, these statistics mask the important role of commuting in the transportation system and the role that transit plays. Roadway congestion costs the average American commuter {\$}818 in lost time and fuel in 2011 compared to an inflation-­‐adjusted {\$}342 per commuter in 1982. In total, congestion cost the American economy {\$}121 billion in 2011, while public transit saved {\$}20.8 billion (5). Most aggregate studies of commuting focus on regions where transit mode shares are high, such as New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore, Boston, and San Francisco. Other aggregate studies examine the phenomenon of transit commuting through the lens of metropolitan size, central city versus suburbs, and population density (6), but have not taken into consideration the role of the built environment on transit use. Transportation and the built environment have a reciprocal relationship, with impacts in both directions (7). Research on this topic dates back to the Von Thunen model of agricultural land use (8), and extended to residential location choice by Alonso (9) and Muth (10). The Alonso-­‐Muth model predicts higher land values near the city center, as transportation cost savings are},

So making a decision about accepting a proper gap is crucial for pedestrians. This paper, using video-taped data, investigates pedestrians' gap acceptance in an unsignalized intersection and a midblock crosswalk in Tehran, Iran. Size of the accepted gaps, size and number of the rejected gaps and the waiting time are examined against pedestrians' and traffic attributes, using statistical analysis and modeling approach. Statistical analysis revealed that gender, using cell-phone during crossing and accompanying a child strongly affects the pedestrian gap acceptance behavior. A latent variable, caution behavior, was defined based on some observable indicators and using structural equation modeling it was estimated and used as an input in a binary mixed logit model. Modeling approach shows pedestrian decision regarding acceptance or rejection of a gap to be highly influenced by the size of current gap, caution behavior and waiting time.},

The largest reductions in fatalities are generally associated with decreases in household median income, a proxy for economic activity. Changes in the road network, mainly increasing the number of lanes on arterial and collector roads has increased fatalities. Graduated licensing policies, mobile communication device laws, safety-belt laws and motorcycle helmet requirements are all associated with reductions in fatalities. In particular, between 2006 and 2012, the further implementation of graduated licensing and mobile communication device laws in additional states accounts for substantial reductions in nationwide fatalities. Other control factors include a proxy for medical technology, population and demographic changes, and various other proxies that are related to economic activity, with mixed effects on fatality reduction.},

abstract = {As the technology to automate road vehicles and the policies regulating them continue to advance this paper explores potential ways that it could be integrated into the delivery industry. The paper makes two contributions. First, it proposes different ways that autonomous delivery vehicles – the vehicles responsible for carrying packages from a sorting center to the customers – could be designed. Second, profit and loss (P{\&}L) models are built using publicly available data about delivery company operations. These models are used to calculate the minimum performance levels that these vehicles would need to deliver, under different cost and pricing scenarios, to keep profitability for delivery companies at existing levels. The two scenarios proposed are termed self-driving trucks (SDT) and locker-on-wheels (LoW). SDT are used to enhance the productivity of couriers by freeing them to locate and collect packages while the vehicle is in motion. The saved time allows couriers to deliver more packages to customers. LoW lack a driver which reduces cost. These vehicles travel to customers and require self-service collection.},

abstract = {The decision to cycle frequently in an urban setting is a complex process and is affected by a variety of factors. This study analyzed the various factors influencing cycling frequency among 1707 cyclists from Montreal, Canada using an ordinal logistic regression. A segmentation of cyclists is used in a series of ordinal logistic models to better understand the different impacts of variables on the frequency of cycling among each group of cyclists for commute and for utilitarian purposes. Our models show a variation in the impacts of each dependent variable on frequency of cycling across the various segments of cyclists. Mainly making cyclists feel safe not only on bicycle specific infrastructure but also on regular streets, emphasizing the low cost, convenience and improving the opinion on cycling in the population are effective interventions to increase bicycle usage. Also, it was shown that women were less likely to cycle to work than men, but more likely to cycle for other utilitarian trips, pointing at the presence of specific barriers to commuting for woman. Although the findings from this study are specific to Montreal, they can be of interest to transportation planners and engineers working toward increasing cycling frequency in other regions.},

The objective of this study is to apply a systems approach to a causation analysis of fatal crashes in order to identify key risk factors and countermeasures associated with all vehicles involved, the infrastructure, road users and road safety management. The paper presents an analysis of fatal cyclist collisions that took place in London in the years 2007 to 2011. Case materials included police reports, witness statements, vehicle inspections, scene plans and photographs, collision reconstructions, post-mortem and other medical reports. The sample comprised a total of 53 fatal cyclist collisions that occurred during the five year period. The most common collision type resulting in a fatal cyclist was an impact with a large vehicle {\textgreater}3.5T including 27 lorries and 3 buses. The most common manoeuvre involved the large vehicle turning left resulting in a low speed interaction with the cyclist. Generally impacts occurred to the front left side or left front side of the truck (24 cases, 89{\%}). Insufficient direct vision of the cyclist was a factor in all of these cases with additional risks associated with driver attention and mirror limitations. The availability of Class V side and Class VI front mirrors did not prevent all fatalities.12 (45{\%}) of the lorries were equipped with side guards while 11 were exempt, however all of the fatally injured cyclists were on the ground before any side-guard interaction could have occurred and side guards were not seen to be effective in this sample.},

While necessary components of the cycling environment, such efforts may not adequately address person-level barriers to cycling participation, such as lack of adequate information, discomfort with being in an unfamiliar environment, or feeling outside of the cycling “community.” Cycling Social Networks (CSN) have been proposed as mechanisms to overcome some of these barriers, as they provide both a repository of information for the interested party, as well as facilitating on- and off-line social connections that may contribute to overcoming some individual barriers. In this paper, we report on the findings of two surveys – one general population, and one directed towards users of The Chainlink, a Chicago-based CSN – to assess the potential for such networks to serve as mechanics for fostering ongoing and sustained use of cycling.},

This study, based on data from Portland Oregon, explored the match or mismatch between the objective and perceived bicycling environment, and how it affects people's bicycling behavior. The descriptive analysis indicated a fair agreement between perceived and objective measures. Older adults, women having children, less-educated and lower-income persons, and those who bicycle less tended to perceive their high-bikeable environment (measured objectively) as low- bikeable. In addition to the socio-demographics, this study also found social environment can play a role in the relationship between objective and perceived environment. Finally, results of this study indicated that actual and perceived built-environment both are associated with the bicycling behavior, particularly for utilitarian bicycling. For recreational bicycling, the objective environment attributes measured in this study are not significant factors, while the perceptions do matter.},

abstract = {The low luminance and the monotony of highway tunnels are likely to cause drivers to experience a visual illusion while driving. Drivers tend to underestimate their speed and thus are exposed to a higher risk of relatively severe traffic accidents. Finding a low-cost way to reduce this visual illusion and to improve traffic safety is a challenge for current highway tunnel operations. High-frequency visual information can make a driver overestimate speed; low-frequency visual information may induce a driver to underestimate speed. However, quantitative investigations of the influence of visual information of various frequencies and luminance levels on drivers' speed perception are lacking. This paper describes a driving simulation model created with Autodesk's 3ds Max modeling software and tests carried out with simulators and E-Prime research software. The mechanisms of speed perception and reaction time were studied to consider the effect of visual information with high frequencies and with combined high and low frequencies under different luminance levels (100{\%}, 50{\%}, and 25{\%} of standard luminance). The test results revealed that speed overestimation was caused mainly by high-frequency visual information. This overestimation could be reduced by combining high-frequency visual information with low-frequency visual information. With higher luminance, speed overestimation was lessened and drivers' reaction time was shorter. It is suggested that visual information with combined frequencies be employed to control drivers' illusions of speed and to enhance traffic safety.},

Kaohsiung City is the first city that promotes Bicycle Sharing System (BSS) in Taiwan. The Kaohsiung City government constructed the City-bike system for the first- and last-mile services of public transport systems, The Kaohsiung Rapid Transit Corporation (KRTC) operated the City-bike system since 2009 in order to increase the transit ridership. A public transport system should consider operation efficiency for internal tasks, such as cost reduction, human resource management and vehicle/crew dispatching strategies. In this study, the authors develop a multi-depot location and truck routing model by a mathematical program where the main objective is to minimize the total system cost of fixed cost, operating cost, and truck routing cost. The ultimate goal is to find suitable locations for truck depots and shorten total routing distance while maintaining a certain level of public bike sharing services.},

Instead$\backslash$nof focusing on the VRP, this study provides a practical framework to$\backslash$nfind an optimal solution for the routing of a fuel delivery truck$\backslash$nbetween a bulk terminal and a large number of stations supplied by it.$\backslash$nFirst, six important criteria were proposed; they were believed to be$\backslash$nnecessary to consider for assessing safety and cost of different routes.$\backslash$nSome ArcGIS tools were used to quantify these criteria-a difficult task,$\backslash$nespecially in large-scale transportation networks. Then a shortest path$\backslash$nmodel based on a multicriteria objective was proposed to solve the$\backslash$nrouting problem and find the optimum routes between bulk terminal and$\backslash$nfuel stations. The case study considered the Tehran, Iran, metropolitan$\backslash$narea, with more than 12 million inhabitants, and solved the dispatching$\backslash$nproblem for two types of fuel: gasoline and liquefied petroleum gas.$\backslash$nScenarios were defined by considering different criteria for solving the$\backslash$nrouting problem. Then each scenario was evaluated on the basis of safety$\backslash$nand economic indexes defined in this study. The findings show that using$\backslash$nthe proposed approach for solving the routing problem could improve the$\backslash$nsafety and economic indexes compared with the existing situation.},

Successful VSL control was characterized by nearly constant, or decreasing, demand over time. In contrast, failed VSL control was attributed to (a) significant increase in demand (during control) and (b) significant net inflow from ramps. The demand increase was found to be the leading cause of the failed control, underscoring that the efficacy of the VSL control greatly relies on its ability to incorporate demand patterns during control. On the basis of these findings, some potential improvements are offered, including a parameter design strategy that incorporates demand patterns.},

abstract = {An important component of active management of freeways is the systematic identification of recurring and nonrecurring congestion, particularly the location of the shock wave boundary between the two flow regimes. In the past five decades, many publications have described point-based detection models. The emerging widespread availability of true space mean speed data obtained from probe vehicles greatly simplifies the incident detection problem. This paper describes the use of cloud-based crowdsourced probe data for detecting the boundary between uncongested and congested conditions. Time-stamped freeway segment speed data can be retrieved from a cloud source with standard web communication and data protocols on a predetermined time interval. After data retrieval, differences in speeds of adjacent roadway segments are computed for all segments across the state. The calculated differences are called the "delta speeds." A threshold is then set for the computed delta speeds, and any record that surpasses the threshold triggers a warning via an incident management website to alert traffic management personnel. The delta speed data can also be aggregated over time for strategizing the management of shifting work zones or making capital investment decisions. This study used delta speed values to examine an incident on I-69 in northeast Indianapolis, Indiana. Data within a 5-h period were collected to analyze the dynamics of the back of the queue during reduced capacity caused by incident investigation. In addition, the area of analysis was expanded to 150 mi of I-69 over a 1-month period for finding locations with recurring backs of queues.},

abstract = {Within this paper a model-based framework is described which supports decision makers to design free-floating carsharing systems. Free-floating carsharing like DriveNow and car2go emerged as new carsharing concept and shows fast growing rates in Europe and North America. This is expected to continue and expansion to more cities is considered the key industry trend. So far, the local adaptation of the system is based on expert opinions solely. The developed model-based framework comprises the design of the operating area, fleet size, charging concept, fleet mix, and price because these five aspects were identified as key elements when adapting free-floating carsharing to a selected city. In summary, twelve quantitative input variables and five qualitative aspects are modeled as input parameters to determine these aspects. The individual models are evaluated where possible and results appear very satisfying. To demonstrate its applicability, this paper also includes a case study on Chicago, where a free-floating carsharing system was planned out guided by the developed models},

Since decisions originating in the private sector affect cities' mobility and green-house-gas (GHG) emission levels, appropriate government responses to these issues are fundamental to achieve sustainable development in urban environments. The objective of this work is to increase the understanding on how policies focused on improving urban goods movement, such as dedicated infrastructure (freight corridors and platforms), traffic regulations (time window deliveries and vehicle constraints), city logistics network optimization, and voluntary cooperation (to achieve better consolidation levels between shippers and carriers), can contribute to economic and social development in metropolitan areas, whilst reducing or minimizing the emissions of GHGs. The authors developed a mathematical model to simulate the impacts that different policies could have on logistics costs, traffic level, congestion, and emissions.},

TSP is a relatively inexpensive and easy to implement tool to make transit service faster and more reliable. TSP also sends a signal that a city or region encourages the growth of transit mode split. With the aim of assessing the performance of an existing TSP system, this study had access to a unique set of high-resolution bus and traffic signal data. Novel algorithms and performance measures to measure TSP performance are proposed. Results indicate that a timely and effective TSP system requires a high degree of sophistication, monitoring and maintenance. Empirical data suggest that most TSP phase adjustments were granted within the same cycle when buses request priority but that only a small proportion resulted in reduced delay. In this study, many green extension (GE) phases were granted late making them less effective than early (EG) signal phases. Despite this, the TSP system did not increase delays for passengers and vehicles when side street traffic is considered.},

abstract = {The current version of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 2010) gives guidance on commercial truck speeds on grade through the use of truck speed versus distance-grade curves, which are located in HCM 2010 Chapter 11. They are designed to allow the analyst to estimate a commercial truck's speed after it travels on a known distance of roadway with a certain grade. Typically, these curves are used to determine an “equivalent grade” (incline/decline and length) that will result in the same final speed of commercial trucks as would the series of grades making up a composite grade. The HCM 2010 curves were developed as a result of studies which used simulation tools. These simulation tools utilized a simple “maximum acceleration versus speed” lookup table approach and did not account for commercial truck transmission gear changing capabilities. These shortcomings, along with the changes in truck performance over the last 20 years, necessitate an update to the HCM 2010 speed versus distance-grade curves. This study presents the development of updated commercial truck speed versus distance-grade curves using TruckSim. This simulation tool uses a full vehicle dynamics modeling approach which ensures that the commercial truck performance is accurately represented per the 17 field conditions. The results show that the performance of commercial trucks, as presented in the HCM 2010, is worse than that currently observed. Therefore, it is recommended that the current truck speed versus distance-grade curves included in the HCM be replaced with those presented in this study.},

abstract = {Study analysis has been carried out to comprehend the influence of bi-directional movement at a stairway inside Dadar railway station in Mumbai, India. Collected data were used for developing the fundamental macroscopic speed-flow relationship. Based on directional distribution ratio, available space for individual direction was found through acquisition of coordinates. The result of this study shows that unbalanced distribution ratio reduces the average walking speed in individual direction as well as capacity of the stairway. The effect of bi-directional movement is found to be more significant, when distribution ratio decreases from 0.6 in descending direction, making ascending flow more dominant. Maximum capacity is obtained at distribution ratio of 0.6. At this ratio, descending flow is highly influenced with opposing minor flow by maximum conflict between two streams resulting into highest difference in the walking speed of both directions. The methodology and the results obtained in the present study can be useful for ongoing efforts to developing an Indian Highway Capacity Manual (Indo-HCM), which in turn may be used for optimizing the pedestrian flow on a given stairway coupled with the planning of other alternative pedestrian facilities at railway stations. The empirical observations in form of snapshots for varying proportions of bi-directional pedestrian flow also may be quite useful for developing and calibrating simulation models to replicate the field conditions.},

abstract = {In order to commute by carpooling, individuals need to communicate, negotiate and coordinate, and in most cases adapt their agenda (daily schedule) to enable cooperation. Through negotiation, agents (individuals) can reach complex agreements in an iterative way which meet the criteria for the successful negotiation. The procedure of negotiation and trip execution in the carpooling consists of a number of steps namely; (i) explore the social network, (ii) negotiate agenda to reach complex agreements, and (iii) long term trip execution. This paper presents a conceptual design of an organizational-based and agent-based model ({\{}ABM{\}}) of a set of candidate carpoolers that serves as a proof of concept and is an extension of a simple negotiation model for carpooling. The proposed model is used for simulating the interactions of autonomous agents with their agenda and explore social networks to initiate agent communication to trigger the negotiation process. The schedule adaptation depends on the preferences among feasible schedules of the individuals, depends in general on both the time of day and on the duration of the participation. In this simulation of the evolution we consider a daily schedule that consists of three activities (home, work and home) and a chain of two intermediate trips (home-to-work and work-to-home) only. We carried out a validation study of our results with real data collected in Flanders, Belgium. From the simulation's discussions, it is possible to understand the causes why people can adapt their daily schedule to enable cooperation in order to carpool. The future research will mainly focus on enhancing the mechanism for negotiation between agents.},

abstract = {Advances in wireless communications and technologies provide the opportunity to collect detailed information on travel trajectory using smart-phones equipped with GPS and accelerometers. These types of smart-phones are ubiquitous and, as such, present an opportunity to conveniently collect spatial and temporal data at regular time intervals. This can be useful to utilize as a method to document travel behavior – origin, destination, departure time, route choice, trip purpose, and mode choice. One of the challenges that has been addressed in the literature is how to identify the transportation mode of travel. This paper presents a data-driven classification model to infer transportation mode choice from data collected with GPS equipped smart phones. Rather than making a priori assumptions, the authors instead employ an optimization method to objectively produce the following classifier components and methods: a ranked feature vector based on the power of differentiation between different modes; the classification technique between the range of candidate classifiers; the number of ranked attributes to include in the feature vector; data formatting; and optimal model parameters. The model is trained and tested using known transportation mode segments – limits of travel by a given mode. The calibrated model is evaluated by testing its ability to classify travel mode correctly for GPS data at a different level of disaggregation than the one used in the model training step. The model provides an accuracy of approximately 86{\%} at the disaggregated level (e.g. Walk, Bike, Transit, and Private Automobile) and approximately 94{\%} at aggregated level (e.g. Non-Motorized and Motorized.)},

Paratransit system, however, just like all other public transportation systems, suffers from travel time variability due to various factors and as a result gives its customers unreliable services. Although service reliability is a very important aspect in transportation study, it has not received much attention in the paratransit research community. A quantitative study evaluating the paratransit service reliability under different zoning strategies is yet to be found. This research filled this gap. Statistical models were proposed to represent travel time variability. Simulation experiments based on real demand data from Houston, Los Angeles and Boston were performed to quantitatively compare the reliability performance of centralized and decentralized operating strategies under different travel time variability levels. Results showed that the decentralized strategy, compared to the centralized no-zoning strategy, substantially improves the reliability of paratransit in terms of on-time performance. This research provides a framework for paratransit agencies to evaluate the service reliability of different organizational strategies through the simulation method.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015 Springer Science+Business Media New YorkDespite a growing number of studies in stochastic dynamic network optimization, the field remains less well defined and unified than other areas of network optimization. Due to the need for approximation methods like approximate dynamic programming, one of the most significant problems yet to be solved is the lack of adequate benchmarks. The values of the perfect information policy and static policy are not sensitive to information propagation while the myopic policy does not distinguish network effects in the value of flexibility. We propose a scalable reference policy value defined from theoretically consistent real option values based on sampled sequences, and estimate it using extreme value distributions. The reference policy is evaluated on an existing network instance with known sequences (Sioux Falls network from Chow and Regan 2011a): the Weibull distribution demonstrates good fit and sampling consistency with more than 200 samples. The reference policy is further applied in computational experiments with two other types of adaptive network design: a facility location and timing problem on the Simchi-Levi and Berman (1988) network, and Hyyti{\"{a}} et al.'s (2012) dynamic dial-a-ride problem. The former experiment represents an application of a new problem class and use of the reference policy as an upper bound for evaluating sampled policies, which can reach 3 {\%} gap with 350 samples. The latter experiment demonstrates that sensitivity to parameters may be greater than expected, particularly when benchmarked against the proposed reference policy.},

abstract = {Short-term travel time prediction is one of the key technologies of intelligent transportation systems. Reliable systems that are able to provide accurate travel time information are needed for advanced traffic management systems and advanced traveler information systems. Various methods have been proposed and developed to predict travel time. However, travel time prediction is difficult because of its complex multimodal properties in time and space. Making full use of spatial-temporal information to predict travel time accurately is still a problem. To deal with this shortcoming, a method based on dynamic tensor completion is proposed to predict travel time; this method can make full use of the spatial-temporal correlations of travel time by constructing the travel time data into dynamic four-way tensor streams, and real-time prediction through the dynamic tensor completion model can be realized. Experiments with real traffic speed data collected by 40 detectors on I-405 were used to verify the performance of the proposed approach. For evaluation, two strategies of tensor completion were tested on travel time derived from the I-405 freeway speed data. The experiment results showed that dynamic tensor completion outperformed offline tensor completion and two other benchmarks.},

abstract = {Limitations associated with traditional collision-based safety analysis techniques led to a growing interest in the use of surrogate safety measures such as the traffic conflict technique. This interest was facilitated by advances in automated video-based data collection methods that helped to overcome the reliability issues associated with manual collection of data on traffic conflicts. Various objective conflict indicators that measure various spatial and temporal aspects of user proximity are available to measure the severity of traffic events. These time-proximity conflict measures assume that proximity is a surrogate for conflict severity. However, this assumption may not be valid in many driving environments. The objective of this paper is to investigate whether time-proximity conflict measures can be a good indicator of safety in less-organized traffic environments with highly mixed road users. A case study of motorcycle conflicts in a highly congested shared intersection in Shanghai, China, was used as a case study. Traffic conflicts were analyzed with the use of automated video-based analysis techniques. Several traffic conflict indicators designed to detect evasive actions, such as deceleration, jerk, and yaw rate, were recommended as better able to measure traffic conflicts in such traffic environments. The results showed that indicators that measured evasive actions had higher potential to identify motorcycle conflicts in highly mixed, less-organized traffic environments than did time-proximity measures such as the time to collision.},

abstract = {As a result of the declining purchasing power of fuel tax revenues, the Highway Trust Fund (HTF) is currently insufficient to maintain and expand the U.S. surface transportation system. Alternative revenue sources should be considered to address the insolvency of the current funding system. Mileage fees and value pricing have long been attractive options to researchers and decision-makers, but they often raise concerns of equity. This paper aims to design and evaluate equitable and progressive distance-based user fee policies, focusing specifically on income-based fee rate structures. In addition to equity, the policy design criteria must also include practicality, simplicity, revenue generation, and a consideration of the design's impact on surrounding jurisdictions. Three variable-rate vehicle-miles-traveled (VMT) fee scenarios with respect to income are introduced: Ramsey pricing, fixed-interval incremental, and fixed-percentage incremental structures. All policy scenarios are tested with a statewide transportation model in Maryland. Results show that income-based VMT fees can better protect lower-income households while generating additional revenue; however, a standard fee structure based on Ramsey pricing, or the inverse-elasticity rule, does not work as well as the fixed-interval incremental fee structure. The latter is progressive across all income groups while ensuring that equity and revenue goals are met.},

The space for bicycle riding is reduced, and cyclists are focused to run closely to vehicles resulting in both lateral and longitudinal influences on vehicular movements. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impacts of on-street parking on bicycle operation and vehicle delay on urban streets. Based on the traffic flow data collected on six street sections in Nanjing, China, the cellular automation (CA) model was developed and calibrated to simulate the behaviors of bicycles and vehicles. Two types of streets with different widths of bike lanes were considered. The results showed that on the streets with reduced riding space, several bicycles would travel within vehicle lanes resulting in the friction interference and block interference to the vehicle traffic. The frequencies of the frictions and blocks were significantly affected by the densities of bicycles and vehicles. The vehicle delay in different traffic flow situations with different proportions of parking vehicle occupations were evaluated in the CA simulation. Policy suggestions regarding the on-street parking designs are discussed according to the findings of the study.},

abstract = {Signalized intersections sometimes involve multistage pedestrian crossings, in which signals direct pedestrians to cross to one or more islands and then wait there for a signal to continue. There are no widely accepted methods or tools for calculating pedestrian delay at multistage crossings, and perhaps as a consequence, traffic signals governing multistage crossings are sometimes designed in a way that results in very long pedestrian delays. This paper describes a numerical method for determining crossing delay that applies to crossings of any number of stages and multiple WALK intervals per cycle. It also covers diagonal two-stage crossings and bicycle two-stage left turns, a common way of providing for cyclist turns in Europe that American cities are beginning to adopt. This method has been implemented in the freely available Northeastern University Ped {\&} Bike Crossing Delay Calculator. The authors also describe several signal control paradigms for reducing pedestrian and bike delay at intersections with multistage crossings including short cycles, pedestrian reservice, and bidirectional bicycle crossings. The authors also show how various lead / lag phasing sequences with pedestrian overlaps can result in good progression for selected pedestrian and bicycling movements. Examples show pedestrian delay reductions of up to 95 s.},

Past studies have increasingly relied on GPS data to estimate travel time because of the great spatial coverage and the growing availability of the data. However, public GPS data usually report locations and time stamps with a low frequency for proprietary concerns. Sparse location data present challenges for the estimation of travel speed and time, because trip information collected from two consecutive reported locations only reflects aggregate traffic conditions of the traversed highway links on the route. The ordinary least squares method provides a starting point for estimating travel time on each individual link from trip travel time, but this method is sensitive to the variance of vehicle travel speed on a link and is likely to produce volatile estimates. To obtain an accurate speed and time estimate on each link, the proposed regularized regressi...},

abstract = {Models of driving behavior (e.g., car following and lane changing) describe the longitudinal and lateral movements of vehicles in the traffic stream. Calibration and validation of these models require detailed vehicle trajectory data. Trajectory data about traffic in cities in the developing world are not publicly available. These cities are characterized by a heterogeneous mix of vehicle types and by a lack of lane discipline. This paper reports on an effort to create a data set of vehicle trajectory data in mixed traffic and on the first results of analysis of these data. The data were collected through video photography in an urban midblock road section in Chennai, India. The trajectory data were extracted from the video sequences with specialized software, and the locally weighted regression method was used to process the data to reduce measurement errors and obtain continuous position, speed, and acceleration functions. The collected data were freely available at http://toledo.net.technion.ac.il/downloads. The traffic flow characteristics of these trajectories, such as speed, acceleration and deceleration, and longitudinal spacing, were investigated. The results show statistically significant differences between the various vehicle types in travel speeds, accelerations, distance keeping, and selection of lateral positions on the roadway. The results further indicate that vehicles, particularly motorcycles, move substantially in the lateral direction and that in a substantial fraction of the observations, drivers are not strictly following their leaders. The results suggest directions for development of a driving behavior model for mixed traffic streams.},

A VSL system is expected to detect incidents and take measures to avoid accidents, postpone or alleviate congestion by giving advance warning messages and/or harmonize traffic. Methods for assessing two features of VSL 5 systems, namely incident detection and warning efficiency are presented in this paper. The algorithm for advance warnings relies on incident detection. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the quality of the system's incident detection and warning effects separately. For the purpose of evaluating incident detection, the traffic state is reconstructed, discretized and compared with the message signs of the VSL. Warning efficiency of the system is assessed 10},

Pedestrian flow rate was the key factor influencing pedestrian level of service for the reason that pedestrians' visual scopes of pavement and the influencing degree of each influencing factor on sidewalks was differed under different pedestrian flow rates. In order to evaluate pedestrian level of service more accurately, this paper classified pedestrian flow rates into 6 stages, then the influencing factors of pedestrian level of service were determined for each stage, and multi-factor evaluation models for pedestrian level of service based on different pedestrian flow rates was developed with the method of fuzzy neural network. Firstly, behavior-observation method was adopted to classify pedestrian flow rates base on pedestrians' traffic states. Then, pedestrians' satisfaction questionnaire survey about 132 typical sidewalks in Beijing was carried out. Significant influencing factors of traffic conditions, road facility conditions and environmental conditions, which influenced pedestrians' satisfaction, were extracted respectively under each pedestrian flow rate by Spearman rank correlation method. Finally, the evaluation method of pedestrian level of service with multi-factors based on classification of pedestrian flow rates was put forward. And the models got training with fuzzy neural network method. The test showed that the accuracy of the comprehensive evaluation model of pedestrian level of service under different pedestrian flow rates based on fuzzy neural network reaches to 92{\%}, which is much higher than the model accuracy of previous researches.},

abstract = {There is a sustained shift of certain types of retail activity away from in-store shopping and toward online retailing, with potentially structural consequences for shopping-related mobility. In the United Kingdom, for instance, 5.1{\%} of spending on groceries in 2013 was transacted online, an increase from 3.8{\%} in 2010. (The level was 1.1{\%} in 2003.) Transport researchers face serious gaps in empirical data coverage of this phenomenon, however, because regional and national travel surveys typically collect limited information with which to establish how in-store and online shopping relate to one another. To address this issue, the authors employed a well-established data resource in a novel approach. The UK Living Costs and Food Survey is traditionally used to track aggregate household expenditure patterns and to monitor price inflation. This study drew on the unique nature of the survey's expenditure diary, in which respondents recorded each item that they purchased during a 2-week period; respondents also recorded whether each shopping occasion was in-store or online. Empirically, it was found that shopping basket characteristics (types of products being purchased) were significantly linked with channel choice (online versus in-store). Furthermore, with a twostage modeling approach, it was found that sociodemographic factors appeared to relate in different ways to adoption of online shopping in general and to the choice of online versus in-store for individual shopping occasions. The paper closes with a brief discussion of research needs to advance this line of inquiry.},

abstract = {To better understand the characteristics of car-truck heterogeneous traffic flow that is very common on freeway, a cellular automata-based traffic flow model is proposed for single lane traffic in this paper. The proposed model discriminates the four types of car-truck following combination, car-following-car (CC), car-following-truck (CT), truck-following-car (TC) and truck-following-truck (TT). The four combinations are considered in terms of the safety distance, reaction time and randomization probability. The parameter values in the proposed model are derived from NGSIM data. Simulations are conducted based on the new model and some new conclusions about the characteristics of the car-truck traffic flow are drawn. First, in the density range of (23-36) vehs/km, the fundamental diagram mainly depends on the car-truck following combination, especially, on the proportion of CC combination. In this range, the fundamental diagram curves with the same proportion of CC gather into a cluster, and the flow rate increases with the increment of the proportion of CC for the same traffic density. Second, traffic congestion can be effectively reduced up to 6.3{\%} by increasing the proportion of TC or CT combination. This finding provides a possible way to alleviate traffic congestion on freeway. Third, reducing randomization probability of the four combinations can effectively increase traffic capacity and alleviate traffic congestion.},

abstract = {In recent years, resonant cycles have emerged as a new principle in signal coordination. Resonant cycles were originally associated with cycle lengths that resulted in good progression over a range of traffic volumes. Several studies documented the potential benefits of this new principle. In this research, "resonant cycles" are defined as cycle lengths that are robust over a range of traffic volumes on two-way arterials. However, resonant cycles may not always exist on traffic corridors, depending on their operational and geometric factors, and the impact of these factors is not well understood. To examine these conditions more closely, this paper provides a comprehensive analysis of resonant cycles. Geometric and operational traffic data obtained from two corridors were used. Resonant cycles were observed on both corridors; the benefits resulted in reductions of approximately 8{\%} in the total delay and 19{\%} in the number of stops when compared with the critical intersection method. The geometric and operational variables that permitted resonant cycles were identified through a macroscopic model. The results indicated that resonant cycles could easily be found on these two corridors under low-volume scenarios. When moderate-volume conditions occurred, certain combinations of geometric and operational traffic variables supported resonant cycles. In contrast, cross-street volumes that were similar in magnitude to the volumes of the main street tended to remove the cycle resonance for moderate traffic volumes. When a microscopic model was used to estimate optimal cycle lengths, the range of traffic volumes under a resonant cycle was reduced.},

abstract = {In this study, the authors investigate the relationship between basic driving skills and visuomotor coordination characteristics related to the use of tools. Before driving experiments, 20 younger and 20 older drivers participated in two visuomotor tracking tasks in order to measure these abilities (Ueda et al., 2013). Based on their performance on visuomotor tracking tasks, the participants were classified into one skilled and two unskilled groups (deficient effector navigation group and deficient internal model group). In the experiments, the authors measured their driving performance in speed keeping, lateral positioning, and stopping maneuvers on test courses. Results indicated that the two unskilled groups had different skills, especially in speed reduction. Drivers of the deficient internal model group were unable to maintain the specified speed and to drive in the center of the lane of both courses. The vehicle speed of the deficient effector navigation group was lower, and their lateral position changed more than that of the skilled group on only the curved course. Older drivers drove more slowly and with greater variation than younger drivers. Specifically, the authors observed a difference between coordination characteristics in deceleration control for older drivers. To control the vehicle, drivers used the perceptual information and internal model of the vehicle and self-operation. These results suggest that the accuracy and function of the two systems differed between the two unskilled groups. Moreover, a difference was observed between speed maintenance control of young drivers and deceleration control of older drivers. The authors concluded that older drivers and younger drivers may have the same performance on a visuomotor coordination task but may use different strategies.},

abstract = {Due to poorly quantified traffic-exposure relationships, transportation professionals are unable to easily estimate exposure differences among bicycle routes for network planning, design, and analysis. This paper estimates the effects of roadway characteristics on bicyclist multi-pollutant exposure concentrations, controlling for meteorology and background conditions. Concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOC), carbon monoxide (CO), and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) are modeled using high-resolution on-road data. This paper also compares exposure differences on immediately parallel high-traffic/low-traffic facilities and is the first study to quantify VOC exposure differences by facility. Results indicate that average daily traffic (ADT) provides a parsimonious way to characterize the impact of roadway characteristics on bicyclists' exposure. VOC and CO exposure increased by around 2{\%} per 1,000 ADT, robust to several different regression model specifications. The results have important policy and design implications to reduce bicyclists' exposure. Separation between bicyclists and motor vehicle traffic is a necessary but not sufficient condition to reduce exposure concentrations; off-street paths are not always low-pollution facilities. Direct comparisons of exposure concentrations on parallel routes shows that minor detours to nearby low-traffic facilities can dramatically reduce exposure to strongly traffic-related pollutants.},

The cumulative curve method was used to extract from videos traffic flow information, such as bicycle speeds, flow, and density. The fundamental diagram with free-flow and congested traffic state was constructed with the use of actual traffic data. Data analysis showed that the capacity of bicycle traffic flow on the one-lane and two-lane paths was 3,960 bicycles per hour and 8,100 bicycles per hour, respectively. The critical density was approximately 100 bicycles per kilometer per lane. Average bicycle speed and speed variation decreased as bicycle density increased.

In this research, a two-step methodology for identifying activity stop is proposed utilizing an improved variation of DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) algorithm and SVMs (Support Vector Machines) method. In the first step, improved DBSCAN algorithm is used to identify stop point and move point; in the second step, SVMs is used to distinguish activity stop and non-activity stop from stop points in the first step. In order to precisely adapt DBSCAN algorithm to the feature of GPS points, two constraints, time sequence constraint and direction change constraint are applied as improvements to DBSCAN (this improved variant of DBSCAN is named as ConstDBSCAN). Stop duration, mean distance to centroid in a cluster of points at stopping location, and minimum distance to home, workplace or nearest station are extracted as the three major features utilized in the SVMs method. This methodology was tested by GPS data collected by mobile phone in Nagoya area, Japan. ConstDBSCAN algorithm achieves an accuracy of 90{\%} in identifying the stop positions in the first step and the SVMs method achieves an accuracy of 96{\%} in distinguishing activity stops and non-activity stops in the second step.},

But the behavioral differences between experienced drivers and novice drivers remain poorly understood in China. This study is a detailed description of the following distances of drivers based on the experimental data collected by instrumented vehicle. The instrumented vehicle installed with GPS, laser rangefinder, video camera, and some other sensors to collect the time series data of car-following behavior, and the locally weighted scatter plot smoothing method was employed to process the trajectories of vehicles. Then the following distances of Chinese experienced drivers and novice drivers on different roads (arterial road, expressway) and in different traffic flows (rush hours, non-rush hours) were analyzed and discussed. Through the analysis, the following conclusions were drawn. The following distances met the lognormal distribution. The mean and standard deviation of the following distances increased with the speed. Generally, the car-following behaviors of novice drivers were prone to be influenced by road type and traffic flow, characterized as a significantly larger following distance and violent fluctuations of following distance on the expressway and in rush hours, while the influence of road types and traffic flow on experienced drivers was relatively weaker. Novice drivers had larger following distances and more violent fluctuation than those of experienced drivers, and this difference was more significant on the expressway.},

The authors propose the use of evolution algorithms in the systematic calibration of the parameters of existing trackers in order to further optimize their performance – evaluated by tracking accuracy and precision metrics – in complex cases, with an initial focus on two tracking methods designed for multimodal analysis. Two real test cases were used a) a confined corridor in a public building and b) a subway station entrance during morning rush hour. Current results demonstrate a halving of tracking errors over both default and manually-calibrated parameters, as well as a strong correlation in performance between similar cases. For applications, flow characterization and directional counting are demonstrated.},

abstract = {Travel time data are a key input to applications of intelligent transportation systems. Advancement in vehicle tracking and reidentification technologies and proliferation of location-aware and connected devices have made networkwide travel time data available to transportation management agencies. The trend started with data collection on freeways and has been quickly extended to arterials. Although the freeway travel time data have been validated extensively in recent years, the quality of arterial travel time data is not well known. This paper presents a comprehensive validation scheme for arterial travel time data based on GPS probe and Bluetooth data as two independent sources. Since travel time on arterials is subject to a higher degree of variation than that on freeways, mainly because of the presence of signals, a new validation methodology based on the coefficient of variation is introduced. Moreover, a context-dependent travel time fusion framework is developed to improve the reliability of travel time information by fusing data from multiple sources. All 2012 data from a busy arterial corridor in Maryland are used to demonstrate the proposed comparison and augmentation model.},

abstract = {This research is concerned with the calculation and application of the design hour factor, also known as the K factor, for bicycle traffic. Two variations of the K factor were developed. The first variation was referred to as Kp/d and was calculated as the ratio between the peak hour volume and the total daily volume. The second variation was referred to as Kp/AADB and was computed as the ratio of the daily peak hour volume to the annual average daily bicycle volume (AADB). An application was presented on how to use the developed K factors to calculate the AADB, and the estimation accuracy of using the two variations of the K factor was assessed. Five groups of the K factors were calculated according to different criteria. The results showed that the Kp/d factors classified by groups of similar links, weekdays and weekends, and year led to the best results where the average estimation error of the daily bicycle volume was about 16.6{\%}. Furthermore, the use of the best set of Kp/d factors along with daily and monthly adjustment factors for the estimation of the AADB value led to an average estimation error of 28.3{\%}. Conversely, the set of Kp/AADB factors classified by weekdays and weekends, month, and year led to the lowest estimation error with an average of 28.9{\%}. The paper provides insights on the selection of data collection days and months, which could improve the design of data collection programs of bicycle traffic.},

abstract = {This paper presents a generic set of under-saturated speed-flow models for basic freeway segments on General Purpose and Managed Lanes consistent with the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 (HCM 2010). The proposed models predict segment space mean speed under a wide set of freeway operational conditions 6 that can affect its free flow speed and capacity. Furthermore, the proposed models allow quantifying the impacts of non-recurring events, such as severe weather conditions, incidents, or work zones on the speed- 8 flow relationship. In addition, it allows calibration of real world facilities through adjustments to free flow speed and capacity. The incorporation of reliability and Active Traffic Demand Management (ATDM) analyses in the HCM context requires a set of speed flow models that are capable of accounting for the effect of non-recurring sources of congestion in the analysis. Currently, the 2010 HCM provides a set of speed-flow 13 models to predict space mean speed and consequently other freeway performance measures. This family of equations provides a limited adjustment to FFS. Furthermore, the 2010 HCM provides a separate equation (HCM 2010 equation 25-1) to incorporate capacity adjustments. This separate equation deviates from the speed flow models provided in Chapter of the HCM 2010, a deviation that results in unrealistic speed 17 prediction under certain circumstances. Under the auspices of NCHRP 03-96, separate speed-flow models were proposed for managed lanes, using a different form from that in the HCM. The proposed generic equations describing the speed-flow relationship provide consistency 20 between managed lane and general purpose lane speed-flow relationships, and can incorporate any capacity or free flow speed adjustments to predict segment speed under different circumstances. The proposed generic equations are wholly consistent with the current speed-flow models in the 2010 HCM, predicting the same speed under any flow rate.},

abstract = {Cities are developing greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation plans and reduction targets based on a growing body of knowledge about climate change risks, and changes to passenger transportation are often at the center of these efforts. Yet little information exists for characterizing how quickly or slowly GHG emissions reductions will accrue given changes in urban form around transit, and whether benefits will accrue quickly enough to meet policy year targets (such as reaching 20{\%} of 1990 GHG emissions levels by 2050). Achieving GHG reductions through integrated transportation and land use planning is even more complicated for cities as changes in emissions can occur across many sectors (such as transportation, building energy use, and electricity generation). Using the Los Angeles Expo line, a framework is developed to assess how financing schemes can affect the rate of building redevelopment and resulting life-cycle GHG emissions from travel and building energy use. The framework leverages an integrated transportation and land use life-cycle assessment model that captures upfront construction of new development near transit and the long-term changes in household energy use for travel and buildings. The results show that for the same amount of development around the Expo line, it is possible to either meet (if aggressive redevelopment happens early) or not meet (if significant redevelopment does not start until decades out) state GHG goals by 2050. The time-based approach reveals how redevelopment schedules should be considered when setting strategies for meeting future GHG emission targets.},

The primary objective of this study is to analyze the characteristics of pedestrian interactive behaviors under the different LOS on walkways, including overtaking behavior and evasive behavior. Field data were collected on a walkway at a metro station in Shanghai, China to calculate the macro and micro indicators of behaviors. The macro features showed that the occurrence intensities of the two behaviors first increase with the increase of density, and then decrease with the continuous increase of density. The proportion of sideways behaviors under the different LOS was analyzed. And the differences between the two behaviors were also discussed. Based on the micro characteristics, the authors found that the available space for the two behaviors was the main factor contributing to the macro features. Furthermore, the different space demand of the two behaviors resulted in the different features between the two behaviors. Results of this study can provide important information for understanding the pedestrian flow characteristics and the critical values to evaluate LOS on walkways.},

abstract = {Abstract Cities around the world have long been plagued by traffic congestions. The access to public buildings, such as parking structures, hospitals, schools, hotels is the main bottleneck that frequently causes traffic backups and accidents. One of the major access management strategies is the optimization of traffic operations adjacent to the access point. However, there is not a scientific model to evaluate access management. It is of great importance that a systematic and unbiased evaluation system is established to gauge the effectiveness and safety of traffic optimization around the access point. This study established a microscopic simulation evaluation index system on access traffic optimization, and obtained the required parameters by VISSIM simulations. A comprehensive evaluation method was established by combining an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to determine the level and index weights with gray relational analysis (GRA). We applied our evaluation method to the building park entrance of Tongji University in China and the road near the entrance was suffering terrible traffic congestions. We acquired the relatively best traffic organization scheme in both efficiency and safety aspects through this method. The results show that it is suitable for the design and optimization of traffic organization to ease traffic congestion. This method, not only considered experts' experience, but also appropriately reduced the uncertainties of human involvement during the evaluation process and improved the applicability of our method.},

abstract = {To forecast the impact of congestion pricing schemes, it is essential to capture user responses to these schemes and the resulting dynamics of traffic flow on the network. The responses of users must include route, departure time, and mode choices. To capture the effects of these decisions, this paper lays out a framework for the integration of the relevant elements of an activity-based model (ABM) with a dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) model and a simulation framework to support the analysis and evaluation of various pricing schemes. In this paper, a multicriterion dynamic user equilibrium traffic assignment model is used; the model explicitly considers heterogeneous users who seek to minimize travel time, out-of-pocket cost, and travel time reliability in the underlying route choice framework. In addition to the methodological developments, various demand and supply parameters are estimated and calibrated for the selected application network (the Greater Chicago, Illinois, network). This paper showcases the integration of ABM components and a DTA in one coherent modeling framework for the implementation and evaluation of congestion pricing in an actual large-scale network.},

abstract = {Copyright {\textcopyright} 2015 National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved.Traffic oscillations, an unpleasant form of traffic congestion, have attracted the attention of researchers for years. When viewed in the so-called flow-density or speed-density phase plane, oscillatory traffic states often present themselves in the form of hysteresis loops. In this paper, the impacts of driver relaxation and anticipation on traffic flow are examined, and their link to traffic hysteresis is sought. Through an analysis of the trajectory data from NGSIM and a theoretical analysis of car-following models, it is revealed that traffic hysteresis is generated by an imbalance in driver relaxation and anticipation. Changing the strength of relaxation and anticipation can reproduce positive, negative, and double hysteresis loops, as well as aggressive and timid driving behavior. It is further shown that the relative positions of acceleration and deceleration phases with respect to the equilibrium state are not unique and are determined by the comparative strength of relaxation and anticipation in different traffic conditions. This study suggests that traffic hysteresis can be suppressed by balancing driver relaxation and anticipation, and stop-and-go traffic can be smoothed by eliminating aggressive driving in congested traffic.},

Site characteristics such as road class, crash history and site length are combined into a single index, referred to as a propensity score. We first estimate the average effect at each camera site using propensity score matching. The effects are then estimated as a function of propensity scores using local polynomial regression. The results show that the reduction in personal injury collisions ranges from 10{\%} to 40{\%} whilst the average effect is 25.9{\%}, indicating that the effects of speed cameras are not uniform across camera sites and are dependent on site characteristics, as measured by propensity scores. We further evaluate the criteria for selecting camera sites in the UK by comparing the effects at camera sites meeting and not meeting the criteria. The results show that camera sites which meet the criteria perform better in reducing casualties, implying the current site selection criteria are rational.},

abstract = {This study examined the relationship between four individual-level travel choice processes of daily activity: spatial flexibility of the activity, temporal flexibility of the activity, vehicle choice for the activity, and primary driver (for auto users). Activity flexibility (spatial and temporal) has been suggested as a precursor to the travel pattern observed for an activity. This study examined the impact of activity flexibility through unique data drawn from Quebec City, Quebec, Canada from 2003 to 2006. In traditional literature on travel behavior, vehicle fleet decisions have been examined as a long-term choice with annual usage metrics. However, the long-term vehicle usage observed (as studied in the literature) is an aggregation of the household's yearly vehicle type and usage behavior. Only recently have researchers begun to consider decisions about vehicle usage (type and mileage) as a short-term decision in travel behavior models. By examining short-term vehicle usage, this study explored, at a disaggregate level, the interaction of activity behavior (defined as flexibility) and vehicle type choice. A panel mixed multinomial logit model was applied to analyze the four choices within the decision process to account for the intrinsic unobserved taste preferences across individuals. The analysis results revealed that several individual and household sociodemographic characteristics, residential location, and activity attributes, as well as contextual variables, influenced the packaged choice of temporal flexibility, spatial flexibility, vehicle type choice, and primary driver selection. The presence of common unobserved correlation across various alternatives was also incorporated.},

abstract = {This paper investigates the bunker procurement planning (BPP) problem arising For a container liner shipping company that plans to purchase bunker from both bunker futures contracts and the spot market to hedge the risk in fluctuation of and increases in bunker prices. A multistage bunker procurement decision process for the BPP problem is developed to determine the monthly bunker procurement. The process allows the shipping company to sign bunker futures contracts in the first stage and to rebalance them in the subsequent stages. By assuming the stochasticity of bunker spot price, the BPP problem is formulated as a mean-variance minimization stochastic programming model. An approximation solution method for solving this model is designed by integrating random variable sampling technique, scenario tree generation, and quadratic programming approximation. Finally, numerical experiments demonstrate that bunker procurement risk can be effectively hedged with the proposed method. This study provides a useful decision tool for container liner shipping companies to use when planning bunker procurement.},

abstract = {Speeding has been shown to increase the frequency and severity of collisions. Mobile photo radar enforcement (MPRE) programs aim to discourage speeding in order to reduce speed limit violations, and ultimately the frequency and severity of collisions. However, because enforcement resources are typically in short supply compared to the number of roadway facilities and locations in an urban area that could benefit from enforcement, a systematic management process can improve the effectiveness of a MPRE program. While there has been extensive research on how enforcement sites are chosen and how the impacts of MPRE are evaluated, significantly less attention has been given to the design of an integrated deployment, scheduling, and evaluation process specifically for MPRE. This paper presents a MPRE program design process, conceived in the context of the City of Edmonton's MPRE program. The purpose of developing this program design is to provide planners and engineers with a systematic and analysis-based procedure to design and deploy a MPRE program. Potential MPRE locations are identified through a priority-based site selection process guided by speed violation and collision data from the City of Edmonton. MPRE operators follow a set of flexible guidelines for deploying to sites on a weekly basis. A schedule for program performance evaluation is proposed. Once operationalized, the MPRE program is expected to improve speed compliance by undermining drivers' ability to predict the location and timing of MPRE, to ultimately reduce collisions and improve city-wide traffic safety.},

The idea of ABMS is extensively incorporated to mimic system users' daily route choices as well as market-related micro-economical decision making process under TMC circumstance. Users are able to form individual propensities towards available bid/ask choices by reinforcement learning principles. The integrated platform offers a brand new insight view of microscopic aspect of the daily operations of credit transfer market, which has hardly been obtained by prior analytical models. Day-to-day traffic dynamics and market dynamics can be captured. Besides, market MOEs, including convergence, stability, efficiency and relative market powers of buyers and sellers under different market policies are investigated.},

abstract = {With the increasing use of ramp metering as a strategy to postpone or prevent breakdown occurrences at freeway ramp merges, it is becoming increasingly important to quantify the effect of breakdown conditions on the upstream mainline and ramp traffic flows, utilizing well validated traffic models. Modeling traffic behavior at merge areas is critical to the assessment of the impacts of ramp metering strategies. Currently there is no widely accepted methodology for allocating the downstream flow rate (whether that flow represents the downstream capacity or a more restrictive flow rate) between the upstream mainline and ramp traffic flows. This paper surveys existing methods for downstream flow allocation at freeway merge ramps to the two competing upstream movements, defines a common performance measure to compare the methods, and uses field data at several congested ramp merges to test the ability of each method to predict the observed flow allocation. A method based on the relative demand flow rates between ramp and mainline traffic performed best across 7 merge sites comprising 40 congested events. It was found that the most appropriate allocation method should take into account two factors: the relative demand flow rates between ramp and mainline traffic and the available acceleration distance for the on-ramp. A predictive model was developed that can explain much of the observed variability in flow allocation at freeway ramp merges with a single on-ramp lane for sites in Florida, California, and North Carolina.},

The effectiveness of the method has been evaluated by analyzing the empirical data obtained from toll plazas in the San Francisco Bay Area before and after toll plaza capacity changed. Findings indicate that the estimated number of vehicles stored near the upstream of toll plaza based on discharge rate and their travel times can be used as a proxy measure for predicting the effect of changes in toll plaza capacity. The proposed model can aid government agencies to dynamically adjust the toll plaza capacity in response to a sudden shift in demand due to various situations of failure.},

From a goods movement perspective, arterials provide the "first and last mile" of goods movement as they connect facilities and enable trucks to transport goods to their ultimate destinations. Recognizing the necessity of goods movement as well as potential conflicts with other uses, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) analyzed truck travel on the County's arterial system and identified a Countywide Strategic Truck Arterial Network (CSTAN). The CSTAN is intended to provide Metro and local entities with a tool to understand the utilization of the arterial network for goods movement and plan for potential infrastructure improvements. It will also be used to direct funding to projects, minimize truck and pedestrian/bicycle conflicts, assemble and map designated truck routes, establish a database of arterial truck data, and support the Federal National and Primary Freight Networks. Development of the CSTAN entailed four components. First, criteria were developed to identify arterials for potential inclusion in the CSTAN. Next, arterial truck data was collected. Third, the criteria were applied to arterials to create the CSTAN. Finally, the draft CSTAN was refined to remove fragments, close gaps, and create a continuous network.},

abstract = {ABSTRACTTwo important claims for carsharing systems are their increased flexibility and potential contribution to reducing transport externalities such as pollution. Carsharing typically involves a fleet of vehicles in stations around a city that clients may use on an hourly-payment basis. Classical round-trip systems address a niche market of shopping and errand trips. However, a growing market is now arising providing one-way trips to clients. Great uncertainty remains on the economic viability of this type of carsharing given the complex relation between supply and demand, and how this may influence the level of service provided. Realistic modeling tools that include both supply and demand characterization and allow testing several carsharing operational parameters are scarce. In this sense, a detailed agent-based model was developed to simulate one-way carsharing systems. The simulation incorporates a stochastic demand model discretized in time and space and a detailed environment characterization with realistic travel times. The operation includes maintenance operations, relocations and reservations. The model was applied to the case-study city of Lisbon. Our results show that comparing to other modes, carsharing performs worse than private cars both in terms of time and cost. Nevertheless, it clearly outperforms taxis in terms of cost, and outperforms buses, metro and walking in terms of travel time. The competitiveness of carsharing is highly determined by trip length, becoming more competitive than other modes (travel-time wise) as trips become longer. The operational policies as car-fleet relocation and car reservation showed significant effects in enhancing profit while preserving good customers' satisfaction.},

The implementation was an attempt to improve traffic operations on a multilane urban roadway frequented by cyclists but for which geometric constraints prevented installation of dedicated bicycle lanes. The purpose of the experiment was to promote (a) safe and legal lane positioning by cyclists and (b) safe and legal passing by motorists. Through statistical analysis, the effects of the green band (i.e., green shared lane) on user behavior were isolated for comparison with the effects of no bikeway striping and standard sharrows. The key findings were (a) the green shared lane led cyclists to ride farther from parked cars (i.e., outside of the door zone) than they did with standard sharrows; (b) standard sharrows and the green sharrow lane led motorists to shift more often from the right to the left travel lane than they did with no bikeway striping; (c) the average passing distance for motorists who overtook cyclists did not change significantly; (d) the percentage of motorists who left 3 ft or more when they passed decreased with the presence of the green sharrow lane; and (e) the green shared lane had no negative operational effect on auto operations, auto speed, or transit speed.},

abstract = {Given the public safety risk posed by high-risk drivers, most traffic safety agencies consider this group a key target for strategic planning purposes. The aim of this research was to develop a framework that could be used to efficiently and effectively target high-risk drivers. The specific objectives were to establish whether high-risk drivers were homogeneous and if not, to determine the optimal set of primary and secondary clusters for efficient and effective targeting with minimal resources. The study area was Saskatchewan, Canada. Multiple databases (including traffic collisions, insurance claims, and conviction data) formed the basis for the research. In this study, high-risk drivers were defined as all drivers who were enrolled both in the Driver Improvement Program of Saskatchewan Government Insurance and in the negative or penalty zone of Saskatchewan Government Insurance's safety driver rating scale as a result of accumulated demerit points. Geodemographic modeling with the neighborhood as the unit of analysis, a large number of variables, and a set of probabilistic clustering techniques were used in the analysis. The results indicated that the high-risk driver group was heterogeneous; it fell into subclusters with varying collision and traffic behavior profiles. The study found that Saskatchewan high-risk drivers were mainly in the major cities (56{\%}) but also in rural municipalities (18{\%}) and towns (15{\%}). The optimal primary high-risk segments for efficient targeting were those major cities and towns where both the risk of collision involvement and the concentration of high-risk drivers were higher than the driver population. Drivers in the primary target area for messaging showed higher levels of distracted, impaired, and aggressive driving behaviors; driver inexperience; extreme fatigue; falling asleep behind the wheel; and inattention.},

abstract = {An empirically based macroscopic method is presented. It estimates and compares the pollutant emissions generated from signalized intersections and roundabouts. This method was built on a large sample size of realworld second-by-second vehicle trajectories, traffic volumes, and other traffic characteristics collected at signalized intersections and roundabouts in six U.S. states. The basis for predicting and estimating pollutant emissions was the concept of vehicle-specific power. The method enables inclusion of emissions standards and vehicle classes, such as Tier 1 (T1) and Tier 2 (T2) passenger cars (PCs) and passenger trucks (PTs). More than 1,980 vehicle trajectories were analyzed. Traffic variables including intersection capacity, demand-to-capacity ratio (d/c), cycle length, greento-cycle length ratio, signal progression (i.e., arrival type), and number of lanes were included in the model for analysis and comparison between signals and roundabouts. Application of the method to a case study showed that on average under low d/c ({\textless}0.7), roundabouts generated lower emission rates than signalized intersections. As demand approached capacity under high traffic volumes, signalized intersections with favorable progression (i.e., most demand arrived during green phase) generally produced lower emission rates than roundabouts. Signalized intersections with poor progression (i.e., most demand arrived during red phase) generated more emissions than roundabouts. Results also showed that during oversaturation periods (when d/c {\textgreater} 1), the amount of produced emissions increased steadily in roundabouts but increased a large amount at signals.},

With data from two activity travel surveys (1997 and 2006) conducted in Austin, Texas, this paper develops a longitudinal multilevel model for estimating the change in the effect of land use on vehicle miles of travel (VMT) over time and the long-range land use effect on VMT reduction. Results suggest that the influences of land use mixture and street density on VMT would vary between 2 years. The effects of VMT reduction on land use policies by raising population and street densities are salient in the short run but insignificant in the long run, whereas those of mixed-use policies are even larger in the long run. These findings validate the importance of longitudinal data and analysis in land use travel studies and suggest that the short-run elasticity of land use derived from cross-sectional analyses may be inappropriate for assessing the long-run effect of land use based mobility strategies for reducing VMT.},

This additional vehicle travel imposes various direct and indirect costs. This paper identifies factors that affect the amount of chauffeuring that occurs in a community. It develops a Chauffeuring Burden Index which can be used to quantify chauffeuring costs and therefore the savings and benefits of transport improvements that reduce chauffeuring burdens. This analysis indicates that in automobile dependent communities, chauffeuring costs often exceed congestion costs. Motorists often benefit from improved transport options which reduce their chauffeuring burdens, even if they do not use those options themselves.},

This paper develops a methodology to compare these programs to better understand their relative stringency. The results are summarized by Figure ES. Key findings from the report include: The European Union (EU) and Japan have the most stringent standards in the world. The fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission performance of the U.S. cars and light trucksboth historically and projected based on current policieslags behind most other nations. The United States and Canada have the lowest standards in terms of fleet-average fuel economy rating, and they have the highest greenhouse gas emission rates based on the EU testing procedure. The new Chinese standards are more stringent than those in Australia, Canada, California, and the United States, but they are less stringent than those in the European Union and Japan. If the California GHG standards go into effect, they would narrow the gap between U.S. and EU standards, but the California standards would still be less stringent than the EU standards. The relevant stringency and implementation years of fuel economy and GHG emissions standards around the world is shown in the figure below.},

Understanding the walking behavior in developing countries is therefore essential to the evaluation of measures associated with walking conditions such as comfortability and efficiency. This study illustrates the automated collection and analysis of pedestrian behavior data including walking speed and the spatio-temporal gait parameters. The data is used to analyze the walking behavior of female pedestrians inside a female-only university campus in Qatar. Furthermore, this microscopic level analysis is used to investigate the pedestrian walking mechanism and the effect of various attributes such as group size, distraction state and garment style on the walking behavior.

abstract = {This paper reports the results of a self-reporting survey (N = 821) that was conducted to examine the travel behaviour of primary school children in the study area of Vadodara city. In many Indian cities including metropolis, auto-rickshaw and van are the main modes opted by the parents for the school trips of children. The issues related to driver behaviour, safety, comfort and over occupancy of children in vehicles were analysed regarding these current travel modes. An alternative in the form of proposed co-ordinated bus mode providing service to two or more schools and working simultaneously was offered to the school children and the response to this service was modelled by using logit models. The survey result indicates the complaints of more than 60 {\%} respondents for the current travel modes. Most effective reasons for choosing the current travel modes of auto-rickshaw and van are door to door service ({\textgreater}50 {\%}) and regularity of service ({\textgreater}40 {\%}). As about 83 {\%} respondents agreed for decision to travel in co-ordinated bus, so this indicates higher probability regarding acceptance of bus service for school trips. Family income and fare relationship seems to be significant for above response. The probability of shifting to co-ordinated bus mode increases if reductions in travel distance and cost can be achieved. Also the significant parameters are age of child, number of persons in family, expected walk time, number of employed persons in family and car ownership in family at 90 {\%} confidence level. Bus routes and the number of buses have been estimated based on the study. The proposed co-ordinated bus service is found to be economically viable.},

abstract = {Broadly speaking, ecology seeks to understand the structure and dynamics of individual populations of plants and animals, of communities of interacting populations, and of ecosystems. Ideally--the reductionist dream--it would be nice to build such an understanding of how individual populations respond to disturbance upon a fundamental understanding of the behaviour and physiology of the constituent individuals. This is vastly ambitious. In practice, most successful applications of population biology, for instance to the management of harvested systems or to the control of pests and pathogens, have treated the population itself as the basic variable (in equations whose parameters are assessed phenomenologically, even though they are in principal derivable from the more basic parameters pertaining to the behavioural ecology of individuals). By the same token, studies of the structure and function of communities and ecosystems are often and usefully approached phenomenologically as things in themselves (topology of food webs, 'plumbing diagrams' of energy flows, etc.) rather than being derived in a more fundamental way from detailed consideration of the interaction among the constituent populations. Furthermore, at every level of approach, it is often difficult to perform meaningful experiments which control variables and isolate single factors in a tidy way. Frequently, the spatial or temporal scale is such that observational data and/or past records provide the only way to estimate parameters. In the 1970s and early 1980s this inability of much of ecology to conform rigidly to simplistic schemes of 'how science is done' caused much angst. In this paper I offer a grandly opinionated overview of these issues.},

abstract = {The emerging automotive, information and communication technologies have made cooperative and autonomous automated vehicles the focus of many current and upcoming research studies. In recent literature, there is evident redundancy, overlap and inconsistency in the use of the terms connected vehicles, automated vehicles and autonomous vehicles. In this paper, the authors distinguish amongst the three terms and attempt to layout similarities and differences. The authors propose definitions for two classes of automated vehicles: cooperative and autonomous and highlight the nature and role of connectivity in both. The authors then focus on examining the impact of cooperative automated vehicles vs. autonomous automated vehicles on traffic-flow characteristics such as speed, density and flow using a microscopic modelling framework. The modeling framework captures collision avoidance, cooperative lane changing, and car following sub-models for both types of automated vehicles, i.e. cooperative vs. autonomous. These models were applied to a simple case study of 3-lane highway. Two scenarios were examined; dedicated lane for cooperative vehicles and autonomous vehicles, and mixed traffic lanes with the different market penetration rates. The results of this study show that with a platoon size of 5 vehicles and at the speed of 100km/h, cooperative automatic vehicles can potentially increase the capacity of a dedicated lane of a highway to 8800 vph and a general purpose lane by up to 4000 vph with a 50{\%} market penetration. Additionally, the results show that autonomous vehicles are not able to increase highways capacity due to lack of low latency cooperative driving.},

abstract = {This study assesses the potential use of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) in place of conventional Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEVs) at household level. The assumption is that BEVs would be adopted as a secondary household vehicle and household members would operate the vehicle through intra-household interactions to overcome the limitations of BEVs such as limited range and long charging times and to utilize its cheaper operating cost. Two scenarios are applied on sample households from California Statewide Travel Survey since there is no data about how travelers would adapt their travel behavior by operating BEVs. In the first scenario, the reported pattern sequences are held but the BEV can be charged for obtaining sufficient range covering capability. In the second scenario, activity participation sequences, intra-household interactions of vehicle and activity allocations among household member are allowed to be changed on account of decreasing household travel disutility. These changes in their travel behavior are simulated by Household Activity Pattern Problem – Charging (HAPPC) model which is a variant of the well-known Household Activity Pattern Problem (HAPP). A sequential activity allocation and insertion heuristic is developed for implementing on HAPPC. The results show that if BEVs would be used at household level the travel disutility of households can be decreased about {\$}30 per day in average.},

abstract = {This study represents a research effort to capture explicitly the intrahousehold interactions involved in the decision to participate in a joint activity. Joint activity participation is a lesser-explored step in activity-based travel demand modeling, since enlisting all possible subsets of household members in a large household results in many alternatives. For example, the number of possible subsets of members out of 10 persons is 210 = 1,024. After the exclusion of one empty subset and 10 subsets with a single member, 1,013 distinct subsets should be considered with two or more members for joint activity participation. Even more important, a joint choice model formulation is behaviorally unappealing and would require the formulation of a complicated utility function for each possible subset. Additionally, different subsets would have a highly different degree of similarity that would require a sophisticated error structure. This paper analyzes three methods to model joint activity participation that are relatively easy to estimate and implement for households of any size. In all three methods, the travel party is constructed on the basis of the individual and pairwise propensities of the household members to be engaged in a joint activity. These propensities are statistically estimated on survey data in the form of relatively simple binary choice models. The travel party emerges in the process of microsimulation as a result of the reconciliation of the decisions of different household members. This approach is an example of the use of the agent-based modeling paradigm to frame an intrahousehold decision-making mechanism in addition to econometric models.},

abstract = {Car-sharing is a transportation service consisting of vehicles distributed over an urban area that any driver registered to the system can use. This paper focuses on one-way electric car-sharing systems. The success of such systems relies strongly on operations management and attractive rental conditions. Immediate availability and possibility of reservation in advance are key points. This induces strong constraints for the operator especially when some stations attract more trips as a destination than as an origin and vice versa. These imbalances must be corrected by performing vehicle relocations in a smart way to maximize vehicle availability and minimize operator's costs. In order to understand the demand patterns and explore relocation possibilities, an event-based simulator is built in C{\#}. The authors develop a new relocation strategy to minimize the demand loss due to vehicle unavailability. Implemented in parallel to rentals, it relies on the regular update of the relocation plans based on an optimization framework which utilizes the current state of the system and partial knowledge of near-future demand. This strategy is compared to three other strategies on a case study based on real data from Nice, France. They show that it maximizes the number of served demand and succeeds in keeping the system in a balanced state contrary to the other strategies considered.},

Additionally we also examine the values of individuals when their choices also impact on the salary and commute of their partner, finding that incomes, income differentials, driving behaviour when carpooling, division of housework and car user decisions significantly explain the values assigned to others and variations in an individual's own values once their partner is affected. The overall richness of the results reflect the benefits that posterior analysis can bring, and highlight the computational efficiency of Bayesian methods in producing such conditionals at an individual level.},

The problem is formulated as a bilevel programming model that comprises an upper-level problem of determining optimal parking fees and a lower-level problem of characterizing commuters' travel equilibrium of departure time and path choices. For the lower-level problem, a user equilibrium model is developed to address the commuting patterns with and without parking space constraints in the many-to-one P + R network. In the commute equilibrium analysis, extra earlier departure times, defined by slack variables, are introduced to examine the conditions in which commuters need to compete for limited parking spots.

The consequence is a growing usage of carsharing and therewith a changing travel behavior. This implies a need for a further development of planning tools so that this “new mode” can be considered in the planning process. This paper illustrates the integration of carsharing in an agent-based travel demand model that simulates the travel behavior of the population in the Greater Stuttgart area within one week. Since it is the first time that carsharing usage is simulated for more than one day, the described model 10 allows analyzing the intensity and variability of carsharing usage from a longitudinal perspective. The model results show the variation of carsharing usage between the days of the week.},

Structural equation model (SEM) is used to identify the correlation between willingness to cycle and several daily travel attitudes, including both positive and negative evaluation on bicycle. Attitude variables are extracted from almost thirty indicators reported by respondents. Only those attitudes that have significant effects on willingness to cycle are chosen to perform market segmentation. As stated modal choices reported by respondents do have impacts on their attitudes and willingness to cycle, SEMs are developed for both cyclists and non-cyclists separately. Consequently, respondents are clustered into eight segments. Each segment represents a unique combination of modal switch tendency and attitudes, indicating that similar tendencies can be caused by different sets of attitudes. It implies that different segments need to be served in different ways to optimize the effects of policies to encourage cycling. Switch tendency analysis of each segment is given based on the score of attitude variables, household income and automobile availability, and then policy implications that best serve the potential bicycle users are discussed. The policies mainly aim to reduce the number of cyclists who have high tendency to use other modes, and increase the possibility to cycle for non-cyclists group with moderate and high switch tendency.},

abstract = {A sag vertical curve on an expressway, where a downgrade changes to an upgrade, often causes reduced vehicle velocity that results in traffic congestion and occasional accidents. This study conducted an experiment on an actual expressway. The experiment used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure the impact of a sag on driver brain activity while driving. fNIRS provides real-time monitoring of localized hemoglobin concentration changes in the cerebral cortex and can detect brain activity by calculating cerebral oxygen exchange. Cluster analysis of vehicle velocity over 965 m from the sag point revealed a constant velocity group (69.7{\%}) and a reduced velocity group (30.3{\%}) with significant velocity reduction [–9.8 ±6.5 km/h (p = .01)] in the first 425 m. Brain activity in the constant velocity group increased significantly in the parietal association cortex (PAC) and the supplementary motor area (SMA) (p {\textless} .05). In the subsequent 450 m, vehicle slowdowns gradually disappeared, and PAC activity in the reduced velocity group began to increase followed by increased prefrontal cortical activity. These findings suggest the possibility that the presence or absence of activity in the PAC, which is responsible for visuomotor coordination, spatial perception, and attention, influences differences in vehicle velocity reduction. The simultaneous activation of the PAC and SMA may indicate that the motor-related functions were activated on the basis of the driver's perception of the road environment and vehicle speed. This possibility suggests that traffic safety measures that stimulate the PAC to better awareness may be effective in reducing slowdowns after a sag.},

The analysis results indicated that attitudes might have explained travel behavior better than the built environment. Survey respondents were asked questions about their attitudes on public transit use, and their answers were grouped into new attitudinal factors by using principal component analysis. Then, new neighborhood categories were created by K-means cluster analysis by means of built-environment and land use variables (population density, employment density, housing density, median age of structures, percentage of single-family housing, and intersection density). As a result of this analysis, discrete neighborhood categories, such as urban high-density and residential neighborhoods, and urban low-density and mixed-use neighborhoods, were created. Then, differences in attitudes toward public transit were analyzed across these new neighborhood categories. Binary logit models were estimated to determine the influence of these neighborhood categories as well as personal attitudes on public transit use after sociodemographic characteristics were controlled for. The results indicated that attitudes were more strongly associated with travel behavior than with neighborhood characteristics. The findings of this study will aid in the formation of a better understanding of public transit use by highlighting the effects of attitudes and neighborhood characteristics in transit use as well as differences in attitudes between neighborhood types.},

abstract = {The transportation network plays an important role in people's daily activities. At the same time, serious flooding disasters frequently damage the transportation infrastructure and network around the world. The vulnerability of the transportation network has attracted much attention. Understanding transportation network vulnerability can enhance prevention and response capabilities during disaster events and emergency incidents. However, current methods for evaluating transportation network vulnerability still have many disadvantages. This research provides an introduction to analysis of transportation network vulnerability, followed by a review of research addressing transportation network vulnerability. A new accessibility-based methodology addressing travel modes was developed to evaluate transportation network vulnerability under flooding impacts. A case study based on data from Hillsborough County, Florida, was conducted to verify the established model. ArcGIS was utilized to identify the inundated segments. Different flooding scenarios were applied in CUBE to update the shortest travel time changes under flooding. Networkwide accessibility and vulnerability values under each scenario were then calculated. Finally, accessibility values calculated with the proposed accessibility-based method and the Hansen accessibility index method were compared. Comparison of results shows that the results of the two methods are quite close, but the proposed method yields normalized values, which make the results clearer and provide more levels of accessibility loss. Research results of the study can support decision making for urban transportation under flooding disasters resulting from extreme weather events and sea level rise.},

Travel demand models have long been used to estimate and evaluate the effects of transportation improvements, like light-rail transit (LRT) investments, on network travel flows and times as part of long-range planning studies, using four-step models or more sophisticated urban simulation studies. However, these are usually ex ante studies. Few ex post evaluations have been done, and in this sense, the effects of transit on traffic volumes and associated energy consumption and air pollution have not been rigorously evaluated to support or refute the justification for subsidized transit. Such quantification is required for a comprehensive cost-benefit analysis. The aim of this study is to provide the first hard evidence of light-rail's impact on traffic in a travel corridor, to quantify the associated savings on energy consumption, air pollution, and parking costs, and to compare cost savings to transit subsidies.},

abstract = {The path size logit (PSL) aims at capturing correlations between path alternatives by including a correction term, path size, to the multinomial logit (MNL). Several path size formulations have been proposed in the literature and applied to various route choice models extensively in road networks. However, the path size formulation has rarely been studied in the public transport context considering the special characteristics of the public transport network. This paper proposes a new path size formulation for route choice modeling in public transport networks. The new path size formulation accounts for both the correlation attributed to spatial overlapping of path alternatives and the correlation attributed to frequency variations. Direct application of existing path size formation in route choice model estimation and prediction based on smart card data from the Singapore public transport network were used in a comparative analysis of the new path size formulation against an MNL and a base PSL. The results show that the new path size formulation has outperformed other models in both estimation and prediction.},

abstract = {Algorithms for current automatic train operation (ATO) focus mainly on reducing the mechanical energy of motion for a single train within an existing timetable. However, the reuse of regenerative energy is another factor that contributes to energy consumption and conservation in multitrain networks. To improve regenerative energy receptivity and energy savings in a bidirectional metro transit network, this study formulated a coordinated train control algorithm that was based on genetic algorithm techniques. The energy saving potential of different station departure time intervals between two opposing trains (synchronization time) was tested. Simulation on the Visual C++ platform demonstrated that the algorithm could provide an optimal train speed profile with better energy performance while also satisfying operational constraints. Different synchronization times have different optimization ratios. This research was another step to facilitate the development of an ATO control algorithm that considers overall energy consumption. Increased knowledge of the influence of synchronization time at stations on energy consumption in regenerative multitrain networks will also aid in the design of more energy-efficient timetables.},

abstract = {Aggregated network level modeling and control of traffic in urban networks have recently gained a lot of interest due to unpredictability of travel behaviors and high complexity of physical modeling in microscopic level. Recent research has shown the existence of well-defined Macroscopic Fundamental Diagrams (MFDs) relating average flow and density in homogeneous networks. The concept of MFD allows to design real-time traffic control schemes specifically hierarchical perimeter control approaches to alleviate or postpone congestion. Considering the fact that congestion is spatially correlated in adjacent roads and it propagates spatiotemporaly with finite speed, describing the main pockets of congestion in a heterogeneous city with small number of clusters is conceivable. In this paper, we propose a three-step clustering algorithm to partition heterogeneous networks into connected homogeneous regions, which makes the application of perimeter control feasible. The advantages of the proposed method compared to the existing ones are the ability of finding directional congestion within a cluster, robustness with respect to parameters calibration, and its good performance for networks with low connectivity and missing data. Firstly, we start to find a connected homogeneous area around each road of the network in an iterative way (i.e. it forms a sequence of roads). Each sequence of roads, defined as 'snake', is built by starting from a single road and iteratively adding one adjacent road based on its similarity to join previously added roads in that sequence. Secondly, based on the obtained sequences from the first step, a similarity measure is defined between each pair of the roads in the network. The similarities are computed in a way that put more weight on neighboring roads and facilitate connectivity of the clusters. Finally, Symmetric Non-negative Matrix Factorization (SNMF) framework is utilized to assign roads to proper clusters with high intra-similarity and low inter-similarity. SNMF partitions the data by providing a lower rank approximation of the similarity matrix. The proposed clustering framework is applied in medium and large-size networks based on micro-simulation and empirical data from probe vehicles. In addition, the extension of the algorithm is proposed to deal with the networks with sparse measurements where information of some links is missing. The results show the effectiveness and robustness of the extended algorithm applied to simulated network under different penetration rates (percentage of links with data).},

abstract = {Hazard perception is universally recognized as a core skill in driving. However, only a few countries in the world currently use hazard perception tests in their driver testing processes and these use a variety of test formats and often only assess hazard detection. For this reason, there is little evidence relating scores on hazard perception tests to driving performance indicators such as accident statistics. Furthermore, there are many indicators which are known or suspected to be predictive of future driving performance and there is little evidence that hazard perception testing adds value to these in the testing process. In a previous Transport Research Record paper (1) criterion-related validation evidence was presented for a test of attitudes towards driving hazards and risks. This paper presents findings from a much larger trial conducted in the UK in 2010. Using hierarchical stepwise regression analysis, significant relationships are identified between a range of demographic and biographical variables and driving performance indicators such as accident rates, traffic fines and driving convictions. Many of the relationships are well established, e.g. the effects of age, gender and experience. Others, such as the number of driving lessons taken, who these lessons were with and where the lessons took place are widely assumed to be important but the evidence for them is poor or inconsistent. However, even when these demographic and biographical variables are taken into account, the hazard attitude assessment is shown to still add value to the prediction of driving performance.},

The emergence of intelligent vehicles and modern communication technologies provides an opportunity to reduce adverse impacts of human factors and dynamically control car-following vehicles. This article proposes a nonlinear model predictive control (MPC) approach for emission mitigation via longitudinal control of intelligent vehicles in a congested platoon. To relieve the real-time optimization burden, we also propose an instantaneous control model which is essentially a simplified MPC approach with a short and identical prediction and control horizon. The proposed vehicle control strategies are tested using a series of simulations, and results verify that localized and instantaneous control of a few intelligent vehicles could reduce emissions of a platoon of vehicles. The proposed models are also applied to field trajectory data, and results show that the instantaneous emission optimization model significantly reduces emissions without increasing travel time. The effectiveness of the proposed vehicle control on emission mitigation and traffic stabilization is found to increase with the percentage (penetration rate) of intelligent vehicles in the congested vehicle platoon.},

The empirical analysis draws on the Scottish Household Survey, which contains a unique combination of a one-day travel diary paired with a pseudo-diary of online behavior that captures three distinct dimensions of internet activity: the amount of time that respondents spend online per week, the types of tele-activities that they perform, and where they access the internet. The empirical findings include both ceteris paribus statistical association of specific dimensions of internet usage and aggregate (multi-dimensional) relationships. The latter suggest that (in the context of this dataset), internet usage correlates positively, net of confounding effects, with both time spent traveling and time spent at out-of-home activities.},

abstract = {Shoulder rumble strips (SRS) are a proven safety countermeasure that reduce motor vehicle lane departures; however, they may be seen as an impediment to bicycle travel as they decrease comfort for bicyclists and can impact one's control while bicycling. Existing literature provides recommendations for the placement of regular gaps in SRS, but the testing was limited to low and moderate bicycle speeds. Roads with SRS along long, steep grades present a unique set of risks for cyclists due to the capacity for higher bicycle speeds. This study evaluates how variations in SRS gap lengths and shoulder widths affect a bicyclist's ability to maneuver through these gaps when riding at higher than average bicycling speeds. The findings suggest that as gap length increases, bicyclist comfort is maintained while downhill speed also increases, with subjects reporting fewer instances of discomfort as the gap size increased. The likelihood of a bicyclist hitting a rumble strip while crossing a gap decreased modestly as the gap size increased. Shoulder width did not appear to significantly influence a bicyclist's capability of maneuvering across different gap lengths and had only a minor effect on bicyclist speeds.},

Responses from 387 practitioners in 171 cities suggested that rates of driver yielding to pedestrians in marked crosswalks were related to characteristics such as social norms, roadway design, law enforcement, and pedestrian volumes. Respondents generally indicated that drivers were more likely to yield to pedestrians on roadways with fewer lanes and slower travel speeds. However, the results also suggested notable geographic differences in yielding culture. Practitioners indicated that crosswalk laws were rarely enforced in most communities. A theoretical framework for future empirical research on driver yielding as it relates to driving and walking culture, roadway design, crosswalk laws, and enforcement is provided.},

The calibrated behavioral model has been incorporated in VISSIM to generate the simulation platform for experimental analysis. Based on the well-calibrated simulation network, the study has conducted extensive simulation experiments and compared the proposed system's performance with other two designs based on the number of red-light runners and remaining all-red time for those running on red. The results indicate that the proposed system offers the best protections on safety measures.

abstract = {This study investigates the links between events related to perceptions of physical safety (crime and pedestrian/bicycle collision rates) and travel mode choice. While several studies have investigated the links between crime and travel behavior, little research has dealt with the effects of pedestrian bicycle collision rates on mode choice. Furthermore, few studies have looked at these influences along a route, as well as at the destination. This study employs a unique approach and set of metrics that measure the incidence of crimes, pedestrian and bicycle collisions, and the built environment. This is one of the few studies to 1) look at people's trip routes, from home origin to station destination, and 2) to analyze bicycling trips for a large enough group of individuals to be statistically meaningful for policy guidance, 3) and finally, it is one of the few to look at the influence of bicycle and pedestrian accident data in combination with criminal activity. The results suggest different crimes appear to have different effects on different modes: property crimes deter people who may wish to avoid placing personal property at risk— such as parking a vehicle or a bicycle. Violent crimes along-the-route appear to have a significant deterrent to modes where travelers are more exposed to personal risk, such as walking, bicycling and transit ridership. People who may have the option to avoid certain stations with high threats to personal safety, appear to exercise that option, such as people being dropped-off, carpooling or driving alone.},

These impacts can hamper response and recovery efforts, however, communities have been shown to be more resilient and have better recovery outcomes if they maintain a diverse portfolio of transportation modes. Among transportation options, bicycles are inexpensive, common, and efficient; however, despite numerous instances where they have proven to be a valuable resource, little reference to them has been made in disaster planning and policies in the US. Through the framework of disaster planning, an opportunity exists for cycling and disaster preparedness advocates to improve bicycling resources and awareness. Additionally, cycling offers additional benefits of greater community health, reduced traffic congestion and carbon emissions, and community capacity building, all of which are outcomes that benefit community resiliency. This paper describes the impact natural disasters can have on transportation; cites cases where bicycles have contributed to post-disaster relief and recovery in disaster afflicted areas; describes how some communities have incorporated bicycles into disaster awareness and preparedness planning; and explores how these lessons could be applied to the US in general and more specifically to the local context of Honolulu, Hawaii. Also explored are the degree to which communities recognize and include bicycles in their mitigation plans; the various impacts of disasters on transportation modes and networks; and the vulnerability of transportation modes and networks on Oahu.},

abstract = {Pedestrian and driver behaviors as well as their interactions, are essential in planning, designing and operating highway facilities. Jaywalking, i.e., pedestrian crossing outside of a marked or unmarked crosswalk, is one of those pedestrian behaviors that may affect safety and operations. Unlike permissible crossings at crosswalks, jaywalking events are not always anticipated by drivers, which may result in less driver reaction time and different vehicle operation dynamics. From an operations and planning perspective, it is important to understand how drivers yield to jaywalkers vs. other crossing pedestrians, as well as the jaywalking gap acceptance and speeds. However, little quantitative and behavioral research has been conducted to investigate this interaction. This paper aims to explore both pedestrian jaywalking behavior (gap acceptance and speeds) and the corresponding driver reactions (yielding behavior). The study also quantifies the differences between jaywalking and regular vehicle-pedestrian interactions. An instrumented vehicle study (from driver's perspective) and an observational study (from pedestrian's perspective) on the campus of the University of Florida were conducted to collect data related to both perspectives. It was found that the locations of jaywalking events are highly concentrated and influenced by the crossing environment, such as pedestrian and vehicular volume, bus stops presence and crossing distance. Also, large differences were observed in crossing speed, yield acceptance and delay between permissible crossings and jaywalking crossings. Similarly, different driver behaviors were observed when approaching jaywalkers vs. pedestrians at a crosswalk. They are less likely to yield to jaywalkers and decelerate more for pedestrians within a crosswalk. These differences in driver behavior may in turn affect jaywalker operations. This paper establishes several quantitative relationships in vehicle-jaywalker interactions which have implications for pedestrian safety, crosswalk design, pedestrian movement planning, as well as driver behavior modeling for traffic operational analyses.},

abstract = {the objectives of this study were to identify the factors affecting pedestrian level of service (LOS) at signalized intersection crosswalks under mixed traffic conditions and to propose a suitable method for estimating pedestrian LOS. The study attempted to develop a pedestrian LOS model for signalized intersection crosswalks in Mumbai, India, by using pedestrians' perceptions of various influencing factors. The important factors considered to develop the model were turning traffic, through traffic, number of pedestrians, and pedestrian delay. Pedestrian delay is one of the key performance indicators for signalized intersection crosswalks; it is necessary to estimate delays accurately to assess LOS. As in the Highway Capacity Manual method, pedestrian delay can be calculated with the help of Webster's delay model, which assumes pedestrians arrive at a uniform rate at an intersection and all will comply with the signal; however, that assumption is not true for the Indian scenario. A pedestrian delay model for Indian conditions was developed by considering nonuniform arrival rate and signal noncompliance behavior. A video graphic technique was conducted for six selected crosswalks. A questionnaire survey was conducted to obtain the perceived LOS of pedestrians. Pedestrian delay was found with the use of the new model. A Pearson correlation analysis was done to find the significant factors that affect LOS. With perceived LOS as a dependent variable and significant factors as independent variables, stepwise regression was done to develop the model that fit for urban mixed traffic conditions. at that particular time, pedestrian non uniform arrival pattern was observed, and some of the pedestrians were crossing the crosswalk during flashing red signal phase and red phase. Considering the above mentioned pedestrian crossing behavioral factors, a new delay model suitable for Indian condition was developed based on three factors such as waiting time delay, crossing time delay and pedestrian – vehicular interaction delay. Waiting time delay is based on signal red timing for pedestrians in waiting area, crossing time delay is based on pedestrian walking speed, and vehicular interaction delay is based on acceptable gap and walking speed. The proposed new delay model was validated with the field data from the Holkar junction, Mumbai, India and compared with existing models. This new pedestrian delay model can also be used to evaluate of pedestrian level of services at signalized intersections.},

abstract = {This paper proposes a model system to forecast household-level greenhouse gas emissions (GHGEs) from private transportation and evaluate the effects of car-related taxation schemes on vehicle emissions. The system contains four submodels that specifically capture households' vehicle and vintage, quantity, usage, and GHGE rates (GHGERs) by vehicle type. The vehicle GHGERs are calculated with the Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator 2014, which is authorized by the Environmental Protection Agency. The whole model system was applied to the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. The 2009 National Household Travel Survey was employed with supplementary data from Consumer Reports, American Fact Finder, and 2009 state motor vehicle registrations. The study proposed two tax schemes, vehicle purchase tax and fuel tax, and predicted their effects on reductions in vehicle GHGEs. The average annual GHGE per vehicle was 5.86 tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent gas without the proposed taxes. After two taxation policies were implemented, the results showed the following: (a) the impacts on reducing GHGEs from fuel taxes were higher than those from purchase taxes, (b) purchase taxes reduced GHGEs mainly by decreasing the number of cars of households with more vehicles, and (c) fuel taxes successfully reduced GHGEs by decreasing the use of cars by households with fewer vehicles. The model system can be extended to other zones, counties, states, and nations.},

abstract = {The use of roundabouts is gaining popularity in North America for their safety, capacity, and environmental benefits. Studies have shown that roundabouts can significantly reduce injury collisions compared to stop control and traffic signals. As more roundabouts are constructed, there will be an increased need for a detailed analysis of their safety performance. Traditional road-safety analysis of roundabouts has relied on the use of historical collision records. This approach offers a less-complete understanding of roundabouts safety and their effects on the behavior of drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. This paper represents a case study where automated video-based traffic conflicts analysis is used to diagnose safety issues at a roundabout in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Traffic conflicts are automatically identified and analyzed to develop an in-depth understanding of the behavior of road users and the causes of traffic conflicts. Conflicts contributing factors were identified and safety countermeasures are presented.},

abstract = {This paper describes a simplified queue-based, capacity-constrained Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) methodology that allows running large scale regional/statewide transportation models with 24 hour planning time horizon. The aim is to address challenges introduced by the regional/statewide models such as the need to accommodate long distance trips that typically traverse multiple geographies (i.e. regions, states) and multiple time periods (i.e. peak and off-peak periods), use of less detailed demand and supply representation due to almost prohibitively large network size, and model calibration and validation for real applications. The authors propose a simplified simulation-based DTA method that can represent congestion dynamics i.e. queue buildup and bottleneck formation without the need for detailed network coding and signal timing input through use of various traffic flow models. The model's capability is demonstrated on the Maryland Statewide Transportation Model (MSTM), the first application of a simulation-based DTA to a statewide network of its size. The preliminary results suggest that the developed simplified DTA model provides fine-resolution spatio-temporal traffic performance measures compared to static models thus have potential to provide more realistic decision and policy aid.},

abstract = {The development in vehicle short-range communication, sensing, and in-vehicle computing technology provides an opportunity for wide-scale deployment of self-driving vehicles (SDVs). The issue of intersection control for these future vehicles is one of the emerging research issues. This research focuses on the question of traffic control framework for SDVs, while also attempting to incorporate the advantages and disadvantages to users ensuing from a control framework (i.e., delay distribution). The framework developed from these considerations is a version of Priority System (PS). In addition, distributed vehicle intelligence has been used to formulate a self-organizing control solution for trajectory adjustment. Considering that PS depends on end user responsibility, research presented here evaluates the proposed control framework by including human decision-making. First, this paper focuses on development of web-based experimentation for allowing user interaction with PS. In addition, this paper will use the information collected from the web-based experiment to develop simulation scenarios for an isolated intersection. Proposed control framework has been compared with the conventional actuated traffic signal control. The conclusion from the evaluation is that PS could affect the distribution of delay among the users, until the oversaturation threshold is reached. Finally, the paper presents a summary of results, conclusions, and recommendations for further research. The research presented here raises several implications for further considerations regarding intersection control principles for SDV technology.},

abstract = {This paper presents a planning-level methodology for the analysis of freeway facilities. The proposed approach is based on and compatible with the operational method of the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 (HCM 2010). The approach is specifically constructed with the intent to minimize input data requirements. The method covers both under- and oversaturated flow conditions and produces estimates of travel time, speed, density, and level of service. The underlying methodology relies on developing a relationship between a basic freeway segment's delay rate per unit distance and its demand-to-capacity ratio. For weaving segments, the study develops capacity adjustment factors on the basis of volume ratio and segment length. With these factors, demand-to-capacity ratios on weave segments were adjusted and the segment was treated similarly to a basic freeway segment. For merge and diverge segments, a novel methodology is proposed to estimate their capacity on the basis of demand level, free-flow speed, and space mean speed. Subsequently, capacity adjustment factors are calculated on those segments and their demand-to-capacity ratios are adjusted accordingly. The proposed approach is applied to two examples in the HCM 2010 and produced very promising results. For undersaturated flow conditions, facility travel time is at most 3.4{\%} and density was at most 1.1{\%} at variance from the results found by applying the HCM 2010 operational methodology. The corresponding differences for oversaturated conditions are 6.7{\%} and 13.0{\%}, respectively.},

This paper attempts to develop and tests an eco-driving smartphone APP, which provides warnings to drivers to mitigate aggressive driving behaviors, thus reducing vehicle emissions. To this end, the eco-driving APP is developed in a smartphone with the Android platform, which provides real time warnings to drivers on their driving behaviors that are out of the threshold range, which is defined based on the concept of Vehicle Specific Power (VSP) distributions. It is then evaluated by collecting the instantaneous driving activity and the associated emissions data of a test vehicle equipped with a portable emission measurement system (PEMS) embeds with an on-board Global Positioning System (GPS) logging device, which records the vehicle's instantaneous position and speed, and the associate emissions. It is shown from the study that with the warnings provided by the eco-driving APP, the driving behaviors shifts to the driving patterns, which leads to reductions in vehicle emissions. The CO, CO2 and NOx emissions are reduced substantially, whereas the HC emissions is increased. {\textcopyright} 2015, Science Press. All right reserved.},

abstract = {A case study of Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland, Australia, explored how explicit measures of transit quality of service (e.g., service frequency, service span, and travel time ratio) and implicit environmental predictors (e.g., topographic grade factor) influenced bus ridership. The primary hypothesis tested was that bus ridership was higher in suburbs with high transit quality of service than in suburbs with limited service quality. Multiple linear regression, used to identify a strong positive relationship between route intensity (bus-km/h-km2) and bus ridership, indicated that both increased service frequency and spatial route density corresponded to higher bus ridership. Additionally, the travel time ratio (i.e., the ratio of in-vehicle transit travel time to in-vehicle automobile travel time) had a significant negative association with suburban ridership: transit use declined as travel time ratio increased. In contrast, topographic grade and service span did not significantly affect suburban bus ridership. The study findings enhance the fundamental understanding of traveler behavior, which is informative to urban transportation policy, planning, and provision.},

abstract = {Widespread adoption of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) may substantially reduce emissions of greenhouse gases while improving regional air quality and increasing energy security. However, outcomes depend heavily on the electricity generation process, power plant locations, and vehicle use decisions. This paper provides a clear methodology for predicting PEV emissions impacts by anticipating battery-charging decisions and power plant energy sources across Texas. Life-cycle impacts of vehicle production and use and Texans' exposure to emissions are also computed and monetized. This study reveals to what extent PEVs are more environmentally friendly, for most pollutant species, than conventional passenger cars in Texas, after recognizing the emissions and energy impacts of battery provision and other manufacturing processes. Results indicate that PEVs on today's grid can reduce GHGs, NOx, PM10, and CO in urban areas, but generate significantly higher emissions of SO2 than existing light-duty vehicles. Use of coal for electricity production is a primary concern for PEV growth, but the energy security benefits of electrified vehicle-miles endure. As conventional vehicle emissions rates improve, it appears that power grids must follow suit (by improving emissions technologies and/or shifting toward cleaner generation sources) to compete on an emissions-monetized basis with conventional vehicles in many locations. Moreover, while PEV pollution impacts may shift to more remote (power plant) locations, dense urban populations remain most strongly affected by local power plant emissions in many Texas locations.},

abstract = {Road agencies set quantitative targets and adopt related road safety strategics in accordance with each agency's priorities and available resources. Benefit-cost analyses are carried out to support the decision-making process, and alternative measures are ranked according to their expected benefits and benefit-cost ratios, calculated with a safety performance function (SPF) and crash modification factors (CMFs) as predictors of future safety performance. Because of the variance in CMFs and crash frequency, it is uncertain what the benefits of some future actions will be. The chance of making a wrong decision depends on the standard deviatioas of the probability distributions of the CMFs and the SPF. To deal with the inherent uncertainty in the decision-making process, a reliability-based assessment of the benefits must be performed to introduce a stochastic approach. In this paper, the variances in the CMFs and SPFs are taken into account in a reliability-based benefit-cost analysts to address the improvements and issues associated with an accurate probabilistic approach when compared with deterministic results or other approximated procedures. A case study is presented that compares safety countcrmcasurcs selected to reduce crash frequency and severity on sharp curves on freeways. These measures include delineation systems, shoulder rumble strips, and retrofitted safety barriers, individually and in combination. Monte Carlo simulations were applied to calculate the probability of the failure of the benefit-cost analysts statements. The results and comparisons with alternative approaches, such as the approach proposed in the Highway Safety Manual, arc presented and show remarkable differences in the evaluation outcomes.},

The Survey of Cross-Regional Intermodal 3 Passenger Travel (SCRIPT) is developed and conducted during the spring and fall seasons of 2014. 4 SCRIPT collects data on respondents' revealed preference (RP) daily commuting trips to 5 separately pivot each respondent's mode choice stated preference (SP) experiment. An innovative 6 multimodal trip planner tool is developed to generate feasible travel options for each SP choice 7 experiment using information of households' auto ownership level, proximity to transit, work start 8 time, and total travel time from home to work as well as pre-developed discrete choice models to 9 identify intermodal travel modes' access station locations. The SP experiments are developed 10 based on the D-efficient design technique. A total of 1,203 randomly selected cross-regional 11 commuters are surveyed. The paper reports a mode choice model estimated by the revealed 12 preference data portion of the survey to verify the validity of the survey design, sampling procedure 13 and data quality.

abstract = {This research investigates social influence in transportation mode choice. understandin gthe role of social influence in travel behavior may be utilitzed to improve transportation policies and increase the use of alternative travel modes. Individuals tend to use the same mode of transportation as those to whom they are socially connected. However, competeing explanations for this remain. When two friends or colleagues make the same choice, it is difficult to distinguish between social influence, shared preferences and the effects of the environment/circumstances. Challneges also arise because indivudals self-select into social groups and there likely exist recirpocal and affirming influences between connected individuals. Each of these explanations has different implications for applications to transportation policies and programs. Although all three are important to consider, in this paper we focus on the third source; shared enviornment. If friendships form because of characteristics that are also related to mode choice, there is still some social process going on. Further, if two individuals are reciprocally influencing one another, this is also a social process. So, the third issue is the focus here; whether or how an enviornmental factor related to the physical environment can be accounted for and addressed as a potential cause for similarities in behavior. We address this issue using an instrumental variable probit model. The model results suggest that although alter and ego mod choice is partly explained by environmental factors, there is some portion of alter behavior which may still be influencing the ego.},

Among the most challenging are traffic congestion and the associated vehicular emissions. Efficient design of traffic signal control systems is a promising approach for addressing these problems. This research developed a real-time signal control system that optimizes signal timings at an undersaturated isolated intersection by minimizing total vehicular emissions. A combination of previously introduced analytical models based on traffic flow theory was used. These models estimated time spent per operating mode (i.e., time spent accelerating, decelerating, cruising, and idling) as functions of demand, vehicle arrival times, saturation flow, and signal control parameters. Information on vehicle activity was used along with the vehicle-specific power approach that provided emission rates per time spent in each operating mode to estimate the total emissions per cycle.

The two sites were taken as cases to calibrate and validate the proposed simulation model. The results demonstrated that this model was able to predict the pedestrian-interaction events as well as estimate the driver yielding rate and pedestrian delay. Moreover, the traffic dynamic in the vicinity of the crosswalk was presented with the simulation.

Using linear regression, we quantified the associations between NOx emissions and selected individual attributes. We then investigated the relationship between individual emissions of NOx and exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentrations derived from a land-use regression model. Factor analysis and clustering of land-uses were used to test the relationships between emissions and exposures in different Montreal areas. We observed that the emissions generated per individual are positively associated with vehicle ownership, gender, and employment status. We also noted that individuals who live in the suburbs or in peripheral areas generate higher emissions of NOx but are exposed to lower NO2 concentrations at home and throughout their daily activities. Finally, we observed that for most individuals, NO2 exposures based on daily activity locations were often slightly more elevated than NO2 concentrations at the home location. We estimated that between 20{\%} and 45{\%} of individuals experience a daily exposure that is largely different from the concentration at their home location. Our findings are relevant to the evaluation of equity in the generation of transport emissions and exposure to traffic-related air pollution. We also shed light on the effect of accounting for daily activities when estimating air pollution exposure.},

However, most existing empirical observations on segment travel time correlations only focus on a small number of neighboring segments, and the general correlation patterns between multiple segments along a long highway path are yet to be investigated. This paper conducts an empirical study to analyze how travel time correlation between two arbitrary segments along a long highway changes with the distance between these two segments. We analyze a series of consecutive microwave detectors along an express way in Beijing, China. The travel time of a segment covered by two neighboring detectors is estimated with the speed counts at these two detectors. Pairwise correlation coefficients of all segment travel times were calculated. We discover a profound pattern in these pairwise correlations: the correlation magnitude in general decreases with the distance between the two corresponding segments and the decreasing trend follows a power law function. This discovery reveals a fundamental relationship that links segment travel time measurements (which are easy to obtain from existing traffic sensors) with path travel time distributions (which is difficult to measure or estimate), and thus provides an empirical basis for travel time reliability modeling. 1.},

This paper presents a comparison of five designs for protected bike lanes at intersections without bicycle signals. The designs represent ideas for how to mix and interact bicycles and motor vehicles. The designs communicate to road users how this interaction is to occur with lane striping, green pavement markings, shared lane-use markings (sharrows), and vertical flexpost delineators. The designs are divided into "mixing zones" and "turning zones with a through bike lane" for evaluation purposes. The paper compares and contrasts the designs with the use of observed user behavior (from 78 h of video analyzed, in which 6,082 bicyclists and 7,574 turning vehicles were observed) and self-reported behaviors and comprehension (from 1,245 nearby residents and 690 intercepted bicyclists). Overall, the evaluation suggests that there are benefits to clear demarcation of the entry to the merge zone for bicycles and cars and to creating a semiprotected through bicycle lane.},

abstract = {Agent based models have gained wide acceptability in transport planning, however, the modelling frameworks have been facing a practical dilemma: demand and supply sides are not fully integrated with each other. So overcome this problem, time-dependent OD matrices are traditionally used to integrate sophisticated agent based demand (Activity-based models) and supply (Dynamic Traffic Assignment) models, which doesn't allow exploitation of several advantages offered by these rich frameworks. Earlier integration efforts exist, such as TRANSIMS and MATSim, however these are still based on various simplifications. This paper reports development of the SimMobility mid-term simulator, which is an agent based, fully econometric, activity-based demand model, integrated with a dynamic traffic assignment model. This SimMobility mid-term is part of a much larger simulation platform that also contain long term and short term models. The SimMobility mid-term architecture comprises three interconnecting components, namely the pre-day, within-day and supply simulators. Models within these simulators are developed utilizing the various datasets from Singapore. The paper also presents some preliminary results obtained from the current implementation to provide an idea about its efficiency in terms of computational time and predictions accuracy. Avenues of future work are also mentioned to improve the capabilities of the modelling framework.},

abstract = {This paper proposes a model to express the propagation of backward forming and forward recovery 3 shockwaves on a freeway. Unlike classic shockwave theory which is deterministic, the proposed model 4 explains the propagation of shockwaves as a stochastic process. The state of the process is defined based 5 on the traffic states of both downstream and upstream detector stations, and the probability of spillback or 6 recovery is computed as a function of traffic measurements. Separate models for backward forming and forward recovery shockwaves are developed, and model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. We also propose a procedure to use the proposed model to improve the accuracy of near-future speeds predicted by time series models. The proposed procedure consists of two main modules: a) a time-series predictor which is used when the traffic condition is temporally constant, and b) a congestion detector. As soon as the congestion detection module detects that a station of the freeway is congested, the proposed stochastic shockwave models are activated to update the predictions provided by the time-series model. We apply the proposed procedure to 30 days of aggregated 5-minute loop detector data from a freeway in Toronto, Canada. The model is used to predict traffic conditions (speed) 15 minutes into the future. The results show that the proposed procedure improves the accuracy of the predictions by17 -28{\%} when traffic conditions are changing. The model is suitable for use in real-time freeway travel time or speed prediction applications.},

abstract = {Roundabouts are a staple of European road design with many international studies demonstrating important reductions in collision severity and, to a lesser extent, frequency, among other benefits. With the promise of better safety, roundabouts have recently proliferated across across North America as well. However, regional adoption has not been smooth and questions still remain regarding roundabout design and suitability in the context of North American driving culture. Indeed, driving behaviour is a vital component of a well functioning roundabout as all movements within are managed entirely by driving etiquette. To obtain a better understanding of how roundabout design affects driving behaviour at Qu{\'{e}}bec roundabouts, a study of 37 instrumented weaving zones across 20 roundabouts throughout the province of Qu{\'{e}}bec was conducted. The instrumentation captured continuous, high-resolution, microscopic movements and speeds fifteen times per second (trajectories) of over 80,000 individual vehicles over a combined 9,500 veh-km, one of the largest studies of its kind to date. This study looks at the effects of several geometric design and built-environment factors on the behaviour and safety indicators of speed and time-to-collision. Among the major findings, roundabout conversions from traffic circles consistently scored the highest speeds and lowest (most dangerous) time-to-collisions, the number of roundabout lanes was negatively correlated with speed in the weaving zone, and mixed flow ratios between the roundabout lanes and the approach lanes produced the lowest time-to-collisions.},

abstract = {Because of growing concerns about the future environmental impact of passenger travel, modal energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important when benefits and costs of transportation system investment are evaluated. Because passenger rail systems are often cited as being relatively more energy efficient than other modes, reduced environmental impact is one justification for investment in new commuter rail projects. It is important that studies of purported environmental benefits analyze the energy efficiency of passenger rail systems and competing modes accurately and fairly by clearly defining the flow of energy through each transportation system. Furthermore, operational practices and constraints of the railway environment can complicate the analysis of energy efficiency; this complication makes it important to choose metrics that accurately describe the situation. This research identifies and describes four methods for analyzing the energy efficiency of passenger rail systems. Each method applies to a different system within the energy flow path. The combined methods are used to analyze the energy efficiency of 25 commuter rail systems in the United States. The results of each energy efficiency calculation method are then compared to illustrate how the relative attractiveness of each system can change on the basis of the selected analysis approach. By better understanding the challenges of conducting energy efficiency analyses involving different energy sources and fair comparison methods, researchers and policy makers can make informed decisions concerning the most appropriate method of analysis for drawing accurate comparisons between rail technologies and competing modes.},

abstract = {Purpose   - This study aims to advance the state of knowledge of the relationship between transportation and economic development by investigating how firms in competitive industry clusters use transportation networks and what role those networks play in the competitiveness of these clusters.   Design/methodology/approach   - The approach combines quantitative and qualitative techniques to geographically identify competitive industry clusters and to investigate the role of transportation. The US Cluster Mapping tool is used to identify competitive clusters by employment location quotients in 25 Minnesota metropolitan and micropolitan regions. A total of 12 competitive clusters were selected for further study, and in-depth interviews and site visits were conducted with businesses in each cluster to explore the competitive importance of different modes of transportation.   Findings   - Minnesota's economic competitiveness is dependent on a well-functioning transportation system in all modes - truck, air, rail, and water. Access to global markets requires rail and truck to reach coastal ports. Air transportation is critical for high-value, low-weight, time-sensitive products such as medical devices or Mayo lab testing samples. Air service is important for customers at Minneapolis - St. Paul, St. Cloud, and Rochester, Duluth, as well as other Minnesota cities. Highway access and reliability is critical for key statewide clusters such as processed food and heavy machinery.   Research limitations/implications   - Study limitations include the representativeness of company interviews in generalizing for a cluster and industry employment as a measure of competitiveness.   Practical implications   - These methods can yield valuable insights into how transportation functions as an input within competitive industry clusters and how it can inform economic development strategies tailored to certain locations and industries.   Originality/value   - This is a first-of-its kind study using industry clusters as a framework for examining the role that transportation plays in economic competitiveness.},

Challenges due to increasing traffic, mobility demand and cost are emerging, while new technologies and mobility services are being developed. In this transformation process, key actors in policy and planning are under pressure to address these issues with limited budgets. Integration of spatial and transport planning is often mentioned as a solution. The paper argues that this integration requires a context perspective suggesting an approach. Based on the state of the art combined with empirical analysis on the case of Switzerland, connections between land use, mobility behavior and socio-economic aspects are analyzed. Based on the results the paper provides ideas for starting points for the requested integration of spatial and transport planning. Key drivers for (mobility) behavior which would have to be addressed are discussed. It is argued that shaping the transformation successfully requires socio-political innovation, creating new visions and rethinking mobility in order to provide sustainable mobility as a basis for a future society and economy.},

In addition to drawing drivers' attention to a device and the area around the device, unique flash patterns may be able to help provide a message to drivers regarding conditions at the downstream site. The objective of the survey was to gain insights into driver's opinions on the urgency of the message provided by rapid-flashing beacons when used with a pedestrian crossing sign. The survey found that multiple flashes within a short time period were better at communicating the need to stop for a pedestrian at a crosswalk as compared to few or no flashes such as the wig-wag or no LED illuminated conditions. When observing close-up views of a sign assembly consisting of a pedestrian crossing sign and LEDs either embedded or below the sign, the patterns that used multiple pulses communicated greater urgency in needing to yield to a pedestrian. The participants indicated that LEDs below communicated more urgency than the LEDs within. When asked to count the number of pulses in a light bar with the 2-5 pattern, the majority of the participants (77 percent) correctly counted 2 pulses. Almost none of the participants correctly counted 5 pulses. Only 4 participants provided the correct answer of 5. The majority of the participants (55 percent) saw 3 pulses when 5 pulses were present.},

abstract = {The integration of different transport modes and the development of demand-led transport solutions are seen as promising approaches for enhancing flexibility in transport systems. Moreover, authorities and transport agencies are keen to explore flexible transport systems that will enable transport resources to be optimally utilized, thereby reducing unmet demand. There are particular challenges in rural areas which are often characterized by limited transport service provision, low population density and highly uncertain transport demands. Despite encouraging advances in flexible and demand responsive transport (DRT) services there remains a need to clearly understand operators' service profiles, service designs and integration challenges (e.g. patient transport with DRT services) if an adequate level of flexibility and integration is to be achieved whilst also taking account of passenger preferences. Against this background, the authors have carried out interviews with stakeholders including DRT service providers, and have organised demonstrations and workshops with transport operators, transport agencies, software developers, local authorities and representatives of NHS in rural Scotland. The main objective of these consultations is to understand service profiles, service designs and other issues including fare models, technology, etc. This has guided the authors in developing a user-friendly prototype platform for a flexible integrated transport system (FITS). The FITS platform acts as a virtual transport marketplace where passenger preferences and requirements are considered; different transport services are integrated and service providers coordinate with one another to create optimal transport options. Argumentation mechanism is used to resolve conflict among passengers' preferences in a fair manner.},

abstract = {Advanced traffic assignment models, such as simulation-based dynamic traffic assignment, typically incorporate more detailed network representations than do traditional planning models. In this context, the placement of centroid connectors may have a significant effect on model performance, and attention must be paid to their number and location to avoid unrealistic congestion or low utilization of minor roadways by local traffic. (liven that the manual inspection of centroid connector placement may be too time-consuming in large regional networks, this paper proposes two simple automatic centroid connector placement strategies for dynamic traffic assignment applications. The first approach radially distributes the connectors to the nearest nodes and is intended to exemplify some limitations of the most common techniques in practice. The second strategy involves dividing the centroid and subsequent demand into two parts, distributing the demand across one sub-centroid linked to nearby nodes and one linked to the periphery, and thus effectively establishing a bilevel distribution. A modification of this strategy involves eliminating nodes at signalized intersections as viable candidates for connection. As part of the evaluation of the methods, a new metric, the locality factor, has been introduced to describe the use of minor streets by local traffic. The numerical experiments, conducted on two real-world networks, exemplify the effects of the incorporation of local streets and the placement of centroid connectors on model results. Sensitivity testing and limited field data comparisons suggest 'hat the bilevel centroid connector placement strategy achieves more realistic results.},

abstract = {This paper proposes a novel concept of congestion pricing based on voluntary peer-to-peer exchange of money between motorists in exchange for one ceding priority to another in a traffic stream. While in the classical congestion charging paradigm payments are compulsory and flow only towards the system operator, in the proposed marketplace participation is voluntary and motorists directly compensate each other. A particular motorist may find that he/she is a ‘payer' at certain points in a given journey and a ‘payee' at others. Humans would not be expected to successfully seek, negotiate and execute a continuous series of peer-to-peer trades involving micro-payments while also handling the cognitively-demanding task of driving; real-world implementation will therefore require vehicles operating under fully-automated control in both the longitudinal and lateral dimensions during the time periods that they seek and engage in trades. The automated vehicle control algorithms must be sufficiently intelligent and adaptable to enable alternative maneuvers on short timescales, given the inherent uncertainty of whether or not a potential trade will in fact be executed. The peer-to-peer trading would be executed algorithmically, subject to strategic-level guidance given by a vehicle's occupant(s) regarding the occupant's relative valuation of money and priority in the traffic stream. In this paper we detail the prospective marketplace and present a simple simulation model to expose its properties. We show that the proposed peer-to-peer marketplace could lead to both desirable and undesirable outcomes; which of these would be predominant is a matter requiring empirical study. The paper concludes with a discussion of further research needs to refine and develop these concepts into practice.},

abstract = {Crowd dynamics modeling and management have been the focus of researchers for several years. An important aspect of crowd analysis is to understand the movement dynamics of a group of people evacuating a closed area in a relatively short period of time. Although, numerous studies have been carried out to understand the dynamics of crowd movement in normal and emergency evacuation scenarios, few studies have been conducted to explore crowd dynamics in panic situations. The main reason for this is the lack of appropriate data providing enough information about crowd movement in these scenarios. Recently, animal experiments have been utilized as a proxy for human experiments. Using animals to study crowd dynamics in panic scenarios has shown the potential to provide some useful improvements to building designs in order to minimize the number of casualties in crowd disasters. However, more studies need to be conducted to explore the usefulness of animal dynamics to evaluate different alternative designs. This study uses animal experiments, specifically panicked woodlice experiments, to analyze exit jam characteristics in panic scenarios. In this study, the relationship between exit flow rate and exit density is investigated first. Then, crowd fundamental diagrams (speed-density, flow-density and speed-flow), drawn for jam area in front of the exit, are explored. The results reveal that change in woodlice escaping behavior cause an increasing trend in exit capacity as the jam behind the exit increases. On the other hand, number of temporary blockages is increased in panic situations. The results further suggest that there are some similarities between woodlice fundamental diagrams and traffic fundamental diagrams; however, woodlice escaping behavior in panic scenarios apply some changes in terms of jam density and capacity in the jam area. Results of this study support this hypothesis that similar phenomena can be observed in human since the main target for both human and animal is to reach the safe area to survive. However, they might show different behaviors since they behave quite differently at the individual level. In future studies, more experiments should be carried out on different species to provide more support for the hypothesis.},

Probe vehicle data has emerged as a means of gathering vast amounts of information about highway networks. This paper presents a scalable methodology for analyzing arterial travel times, taking into account both the central tendency of the travel time and its reliability. A pilot analysis is carried out for 28 arterials with a total of 341 signalized intersections across the state of Indiana. Starting from individual minute-by-minute speed records, the data are converted into travel times and aggregated into time series cohorts that correspond to typical traffic signal time-of-day periods, reflecting different time-of-day behavior characteristics of traffic control in arterials. The data is normalized with respect to the ideal travel time (based on the speed limits on each route) to account for individual route lengths and speeds. Data is compiled for all Wednesdays from January through July 2014 to investigate arterial characteristics. The data shows that a greater density of traffic signals on a route loosely corresponds to higher average travel times and less reliability. A composite index incorporating both the average values and reliability characteristics of travel time is developed, and used to rank the arterials according to their performance.},

abstract = {The population of Jerusalem, Israel, can be divided into three distinct ethnic sectors: secular Jewish, ultra-Orthodox Jewish, and Arab. Not only do these population sectors tend to inhabit and work in different areas of the city, but they each have unique household structures, activity patterns, mobility tendencies, and, ultimately, travel behavior. These substantial variations in behavior, largely driven by differences in culture and lifestyle that are not captured by other personal characteristics, are essential to representing travel behavior in the Jerusalem travel model. In this paper, sector differences were traced through the activity based travel demand model framework by using the 2010 Jerusalem Household Travel Survey. Significant variations in behavior were seen both in direct relation to the population sector and in interactions with other socioeconomic and demographic characteristics such as income and gender. This is the first known travel demand model in practice to incorporate ethnic differences so extensively in its application.},

abstract = {Cycling is an important form of active transport and physical activity to provide substantial health benefits to the elderly. Among voluminous physical activity-related literature, few studies have investigated the correlates of active transport of urban elderly male and/or female in China. This study was the first attempt to investigate the impact of the household, personal, and environmental attributes on urban elderly's cycling activity with data collected in 33 urban neighborhoods of Zhongshan Metropolitan Area, China. The negative binomial regression models suggest that, all else being equal, availability of household bicycles, positive attitude towards cycling, and better safety at interactions are strongly related to more cycling trips for either male or female. The models also detect that availability of private car and social environment were significantly related to only urban elderly male's cycling activity, while living management and availability of e-bike to only urban elderly female's. The findings provide insights for transportation and public health agencies, practitioners, and researchers into better understanding of the gender gap in urban elderly's cycling activity and effective design of interventions on health promotion of urban elderly in China.},

Whereas exposure concentrations have been widely studied in transportation environments, there has been relatively scant research linking on-road ventilation with travel conditions and exertion levels. This paper investigates relationships between power output, heart rate, and ventilation rate for urban bicyclists. Heart rate and ventilation rate were measured on-road and combined with power output estimates from a bicycle power model. Dynamic ventilation rates increased by 0.4{\%} to 0.8{\%} per watt of power output, with a mean lag of 0.8 min. The use of physiology (ventilation) monitoring straps and heart rate proxies for dynamic on-road ventilation measurements is discussed. This paper provides for a clearer and more quantitative understanding of bicyclists' ventilation and power output, which is useful for studies of pollutant inhalation risks, energy expenditure, and physical activity.},

abstract = {The aim of this research is to identify the relationship between travel mode and trip (purpose, time, distance) and person related factors (gender, age, diploma, attitude towards electric mobility). The data for this study was collected through the Flemish Electric Living Labs (Belgium-Flanders). Within this context participants were able to integrate an electric vehicle in their daily lives over a period of ten weeks. In return the test population had to fill in a travel diary for two weeks. To estimate travel mode a discrete choice theory, via a multinomial logistic regression was performed. All pre-defend factors influence and hence predict in a certain way travel mode choice. Especially trip distance is determinative: in a pattern of rising distance drivers will choose first a bike (or going by foot), followed by an electric vehicle and thereafter a conventional car. The predictive behaviour of ‘attitude towards electric mobility' can be logic in a certain way. A positive attitude has a plausible connection with a greater concern for the environment and hence an explanation why drivers are more likely to opt for the bike (or going by foot) instead of taking an electric vehicle.},

abstract = {Handheld global positioning system (GPS) devices can serve as a new tool to collect an individual's trip information with advantages of low cost, accurate data, and intensive spatial coverage. Various machine learning algorithms have been explored to detected trip train information in previous stud- ies; however, few of them focused on the evaluation and comparison of the performance and appli- cability of different models.Meanwhile, according to previous studies, car and bus mode detection is a thorny issue due to their similar travel characteristics, and algorithms still need to be well explored and improved to solve this problem. In this article, an innovative method is proposed to detect trip information, including trip modes, mode-changing time and location, and other attributes, fromper- sonal trajectory data. The method is a two-step process. A machine learning algorith-based module (including artificial neural network, support vector machine, random forests, and Bayesian network) is firstly used to identify walk, bicycle, and motorized trip modes (bus or car); we thoroughly com- pared the performance of these four algorithms. Then a second module, using critical points on the GPS trajectories, is further developed to distinguish car and bus mode, incorporated with GIS map information. Field test results showthat the proposed machine learning models can all be applied for walk, bicycle, and motorized mode detectionwith high detection rates exceeding 90{\%}; however, the algorithmswork relatively poorly for bus and car mode detection, with results mostly below75{\%}. The proposed two-step method can greatly improve bus and car mode detection accuracy by 14–30{\%}. As a result, the averagemodedetection rates for all the fourmodesare above 90{\%}.Comparedwithmode detection results by using only the machine learning algorithm, the proposed two-step method has much better performance in both accuracy and consistency},

abstract = {This study identified the position of goods vehicles in European low emissions zones (LEZs) and analyzed the impact of the access restrictions on transport and logistics firms and on their logistics activities. LEZs are delimited areas of a city or metropolitan area from which the vehicles that pollute the most are banned. Targeted vehicles are often freight vehicles as a result of the high levels of pollution emitted by today's urban delivery fleets. Through a literature review, interviews, and two specific surveys in London and Berlin, analysis of LEZ impacts on the urban freight industry was conducted. The creation of an LEZ was shown to reduce the number of firms making urban deliveries, and this reduction has probably benefited the urban freight market by compelling both public and private stakeholders to finds ways to promote more efficient activities. Such modernization is necessary because the urban freight market is dysfunctional: environmentally because of the old vehicles used until now and socially because of the many small firms that find it difficult to maintain a sufficient level of business activity without breaking the freight sector's labor laws and safety standards.},

abstract = {This paper presents a methodology to investigate the temporal evolution of cycling and the role of built environment. More specifically, the authors aim at exploring how commuting cycling modal share has evolved across neighborhood types between 1998 and 2008 in Montreal. The authors use two main approaches to explore the effects of neighborhood characteristics on cycling and its growth: (i) a binary logit model; and (ii) a simultaneous equation model. One of the key findings is the general increase in the likelihood to cycle over time in the study region. Specifically, urban and urban-suburb areas have been experiencing the greatest growth with increases of 2.5{\%} and 1.6{\%} from 1998 to 2008, respectively. The built environment of the study region has not evolved significantly during the 10-year study period. As a result, The authors conclude that the observed change in cycling activity is explained by attitudinal and cultural changes in the population over time. However, the choice of neighborhood type significantly affects cycling. In fact, living in downtown, inner suburb, and outer suburb in comparison to living in urban-suburb decreases the likelihood to cycle to work by 58, 20, and 11 percent, respectively. Promotional efforts by local municipalities and agencies, such as improving safety, campaigns, etc., appear to have positively influenced cycling activity. In terms of individual-level socio-demographics, the authors found that gender, age and employment status influenced cycling levels. As expected, an increase in the distance to nearest cycling facilities from residence reduces the probability of individuals choosing to cycle to work.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, United States; Much has still to be done to increase pedestrian safety. Illegal crossing at signalised junctions may increase the risk of accidents at the intersections where it takes place and induce dangerous habits. Therefore efforts to prevent such a harmful behaviour must be put in place, be based on an accurate understanding of the phenomenon. The existing literature neglects the impact of spatial factors such as the position of the pedestrians at the sidewalk or the possibility of having two-stage crossings. The paper presents the result of a study developed to confirm the importance of the spatial factors and to derive initial insights on their influence. To this aim pedestrian behaviour at a central signalised junction in Edinburgh (UK) has been video recorded and the decisions of the transgressors are studied through a logit model. The findings show that the probability of illegal crossing is higher on the side of the designated pedestrian crossing area. The decision to cross during the red time is influenced by the width of the intersection and the presence of a refuge island. Recommendations on further studies are developed based on the results of the research.},

Lane-changing execution (LCE), which happens just after the adjacent gap has been accepted by the driver who wishes to change lanes, has not been much studied. This is especially true of the lateral movement aspect of a lane change, even though the LCE has considerable influence on driving safety and traffic simulation results and is also an indispensable part of the control design of an automatic vehicle. This paper proposes the first model for LCE in the lateral direction on the basis of empirical analysis using NGSIM data. After analysis of the data, two types of LCE, the continuous LCE (CLCE) and the discontinuous LCE (DLCE), were identified. A CLCE happens when the vehicles surrounding the lane-changing vehicle do not constrain the LCE behavior, and the entire LCE process is continuous. In contrast, a DLCE occurs when the lane-changing vehicle has to defer the lateral movement for a short time to make ...},

While 34 it commercial sales of fully self-driving vehicles will not commence for several more years, once 35 this is possible, a new transportation mode for personal travel looks set to arrive. This new mode 36 is the shared autonomous (or fully-automated) vehicle (SAV), combining features of short-term 37 on-demand rentals with self-driving capabilities: in essence, a driverless taxi. 38 39 This investigation examines SAVs' potential implications at a low level of market penetration 40 (1.3{\%} of regional trips) by simulating a fleet of SAVs serving travelers in Austin, Texas' 12-mile 41 by 24-mile regional core. The simulation uses a sample of trips from the region's planning 42 model to generate demand across traffic analysis zones and a 32,272-link network. Trips call on 43 the vehicles in 5-minute departure time windows, with link-level travel times varying by hour of 44 day based on MATSim's dynamic traffic assignment simulation software. Results show that each SAV is able to replace around 9 conventional vehicles within the 24 mi x 2 12 mi area while still maintaining a reasonable level of service (as proxied by user wait times, 3 which average just 1.0 minutes). Additionally, approximately 8 percent more vehicle-miles 4 traveled (VMT) may be generated, due to SAVs journeying unoccupied to the next traveler, or 5 relocating to a more favorable position in anticipation of next-period demand.},

abstract = {This paper describes an equilibrium formulation for incorporating parking search into traffic network assignment models. The proposed model allows general network topologies and reflects uncertainty related to parking availability, including the possibility of cycling behavior as drivers search for parking. The equilibrium framework represents the mutual dependence between the probabilities of finding parking at different locations and the search processes employed by drivers to minimize total expected journey time (or cost). In this framework, network loading is represented by a system of nonlinear flow conservation networks, and feasibility and uniqueness issues are discussed. The equilibrium problem is formulated as a variational inequality and a convex combinations heuristic is proposed. Numerical results show that neglecting parking search can substantially underestimate network flows, and quantitatively demonstrate the relationship between parking duration effects and the cost of time spent walking relative to driving, and the expected driving and walking times.},

abstract = {While several studies have investigated the links between crime travel behavior, little research estimates the direct effects on mode choice of crime along different lengths of a person's route, from home origin to station destination, particularly as it relates to the first and/or last mile of the trip-a key area for encouraging alternative modes. A long-standing goal among transit planners has been to reduce driving trips and trip distances for environmental, economic and public health reasons. However, if there is a perceived threat to their personal security along their journey, people may choose to drive instead of walking or bicycling, potentially presenting serious consequences for the environment and society. While most previous studies of travel behavior, criminal activity look only at origin characteristics, this research uses multinomial logit (MNL) regression to estimate the impact of criminal activity along the route, from origin to destination, as well as at the destination. This study runs several different models in order to provide meaningful policy guidance, as follows: Station area crime appears to present the strongest association with mode choice, with crimes along the route and around the home in distant third place. This study helps a) our understanding of the importance of connection between various crimes and mode choice, and the location, which can help b) decide where to place police resources, and finally c) tie the placement of police resources to important sustainability and health goals, as they relate to active and healthy transportation choices.},

abstract = {Bus-stop consolidation is one of the most cost-effective ways for a transit agency to improve the quality of their bus services. By removing unnecessary stops, buses will have reduced runtimes, which can lead to higher frequencies and/or fewer buses on a route. Unfortunately, current research on bus stop consolidation and stop spacing focuses on complex mathematical models that are difficult for agencies to apply, and that overlook many important real-world considerations. The goal of this paper is to propose a new bus stop consolidation methodology that is realistic, simple, and effective, while at the same time being sensitive to people with reduced mobility and adaptable to the needs of different agencies. The new methodology is tested on the bus network of the Soci{\'{e}}t{\'{e}} de transport de Montreal (STM). Adopting this simple methodology is expected to remove 23{\%} of the network's stops while only reducing the system coverage area by 1{\%}. The removal of these stops could result in morning-peak savings of 109 hours of operating time and the elimination of a bus from up to 75 routes at the system level. This methodology can be applied to any urban bus network, and thus can be of interest to transit agencies and transportation researchers.},

Both on-board survey data and census data can be used to estimate equity effects, though there is no clear reason these two sources will result in the same finding of impact. Guidance from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) recommends using either of these data sources to estimate equity impacts. This article makes a direct comparison of the two methods for the public transit system in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. The results indicate that, although both sources are acceptable for FTA compliance, the use of one or the other can affect whether a proposed service change is deemed equitable. In other words, the outcome of a service change equity analysis can differ depending on the data source used. To ensure the integrity and meaning of the analysis, FTA should recommend the collection and use of ridership data for conducting service change analyses to supplement census-based approaches.},

Tested protocols for user centered design and evaluation are mature in relevant fields, but creating alternative tests for interpretability and clarity is still an art reserved to designers. This paper discusses the methodology and results for the first part of a two-part process of sign development in which sign design and content is crowd-sourced and then analyzed and aggregated into a limited number of final possibilities which are then tested for user-friendliness and comprehensibility. The scope includes proposing a method for developing sign content alternatives through text mining of open ended instructions and suggestions of signs, specifically within the context of signage for right turns on road with bicycle lanes. The analysis compares results from self- reported professional signage designers and respondents from the general population. This research finds significant differences in the natural language used in instructions and the language used in suggested signs, but only small significant differences in the language used by self-reported design professionals and non-professionals. The data also show trends in specific wording that people feel is appropriate to explain the specified situation of right turning vehicle and through bicycle conflict points.},

abstract = {Systems that enable high levels of vehicle-automation are now beginning to enter the commercial marketplace. Road vehicles capable of operating independently of real-time human control under an increasing set of circumstances will likely become more widely available in the near future. Such vehicles are expected to bring a variety of benefits. Two such anticipated advantages (relative to human-driver vehicle control) are said to be increased road network capacity and the freeing up of the driver-occupant's time to engage in their choice of leisurely or economically-productive (non-driving) tasks. In this study we investigate the implications for intersection capacity and level-of-service of providing occupants of automated (without real-time human control), autonomously-operating (without vehicle-to-X communication) cars with ride quality that is equivalent (in terms of maximum rates of longitudinal and lateral acceleration) to two types of rail systems: [urban] light rail transit and [inter-urban] high-speed rail. The literature suggests that car passengers start experiencing discomfort at lower rates of acceleration than car drivers; it is therefore plausible that occupants of an autonomously-operating vehicle may wish to instruct their vehicle to maneuver in a way that provides them greater ride comfort than if the vehicle-control algorithm simply mimicked human-driving-operation. On the basis of traffic microsimulation analysis, we found that restricting the dynamics of autonomous cars to the acceleration/deceleration characteristics of both rail systems leads to reductions in a signalized intersection's vehicle-processing capacity and increases in delay. The impacts were found to be larger when constraining the autonomous cars' dynamics to the more-restrictive acceleration/deceleration profile of high-speed rail. This paper concludes with a brief discussion of research needs to advance this line of inquiry.},

abstract = {The objective of this paper is to investigate the attributes of walkable environments from the perspective of seniors in the Island of Montreal in Quebec, Canada. The research is based on a combination of statistical analysis of travel diary data and field work to conduct walkability audits. The approach follows a sequence of logical steps. The first step involves the estimation of a travel behavior model walking by seniors (people 65 years or older). The results of this model, in combination with cluster analysis, are used to identify sites where the model systematically under- or over-predicts walking. Subsequently, sites are targeted for walkability audits. It then becomes possible to assess the presence or absence of attributes of built environments where walking is more or less common than other factors would predict. A walkability audit of 403 street segments was used to proof the concept in this paper. The audited items were summarized in contingency tables and tested with the chi-squared test of independence to identify streetscape elements that correlate with walking for transportation.},

abstract = {Social inclusion requires suitable measures to improve public transport, thus satisfying the needs of socially disadvantaged groups (SDGs). Although numerous measures are available in principle, in practice, however, financial problems hinder the implementation of these measures. This study addresses an important issue in China—how to finance a socially inclusive public transport system given the incomplete nature of fiscal reforms at local government level. Central government grants are required to achieve a more equitable distribution of public transport resources. To calculate the demand for central government grants, an approach was developed to quantify transport social needs (TSNs). A primary component regression model was established to identify the factors that affect the SDGs using public transport. Further, a need-based method is proposed for the allocation of central government grants. The allocation procedure was designed with the categorization of cities to avoid distorted incentives, and a two-step formula was used to address the funding allocation equity problems. The data obtained from 252 municipal cities in China in 2010 show that the TSNs were 37.63 billion trip-kilometers. The corresponding central government grant was ¥18.82 billion. The results of the proposed allocation show that more funding was provided to small and low-density cities had unfavorable situations due to local public transport investment. This investigation would help in a more equitable distribution of public transport funding.},

abstract = {Over the last decade there has been a surge of shared-use mobility concepts that are redefining how people move in urban areas. In this context, the authors propose a new shared-use mobility concept, Car2work, which fills the gap between the existing approaches by integrating them with the transit network. Car2work differs from the traditional dynamic-ridesharing approaches in the sense that: 1) it is designed for recurring trips, focusing on commuter trips, 2) the authors drop the concept of drivers; instead, vehicles that carry at least one commuter when traveling are used, 3) commuters announce their trips in advance, and 4) the authors allow for multiple trips per commuter during the day. The main goal is to connect commuters with workplaces while guaranteeing a trip home and offering some degree of flexibility. The proposed shared mobility system is modeled as a pure binary problem, and a solution method based on an exact aggregation/disaggregation algorithm is proposed. The solution methodology decomposes the original problem into a master problem and a sub-problem, aggregating over the vehicles and reducing the number of decision variables and constraints. A link reduction strategy, based on spatial-temporal constraints, is also implemented to further reduce the number of decision variables. Numerical experiments are performed for two scenarios. The first scenario includes commuters with 2 trips each, 3 workplaces, 2 transit stations and 15 transfer points. The second scenario comprises 25 commuters with 2 trips each, 4 workplaces, 2 transit stations and 31 transfer points. In these scenarios, it is demonstrated that using transit network increases the matching ratio and reduces vehicle costs.},

This thesis examines whether transit construction negatively affected businesses' revenue and survival along the second segment of the Los Angeles Metro Rail Red Line under Vermont and Hollywood Boulevards. Using regression analysis on National Establishment Time-Series data, I find that business survival was lower along the corridor than for the county as a whole, but not significantly different from a nearby control corridor. I also find little evidence of revenue impacts. These findings suggest that revenue loss from transit construction is not the main mechanism by which businesses are displaced and that further research is needed to understand the source of community concerns.},

Egypt's large cities are no exception with a growing number of cycling communities and projects through civic and government efforts. Although a good sign, this potential is rarely supported by rigorous data on the demand for cycling, or the motivators and barriers to cycling. This research investigates the barriers to cycling in Egypt using an online adaptive survey to: 1) collect data on cycling habits and barriers; 2) study participants' willingness to cycle under specific conditions using hypothetical stated preference (SP) scenarios to build an econometric model; and 3) collect relevant socioeconomic information. With 1,285 completed responses, two types of analyses are presented: 1) descriptive analysis and 2) econometric analysis; through which an SP binary choice model is developed. The main findings of this study indicate that inadequate road infrastructure, fear from too many surrounding cars, and unavailability of bicycle racks come as the top barriers to cycling. The econometric model results suggest that males, students, and individuals' whose typical commute distance is shorter than or equal to 10 km are more likely to use bicycles as their mode of travel in Egypt. Weather conditions are also found to have a strong impact on the willingness to cycle, indicating that individuals are less likely to use a bicycle in the summer or winter seasons compared to the milder fall and spring seasons.},

abstract = {Congestion charging is being considered as a potential measure to address the issue of substantially increased traffic congestion and vehicle emissions in Beijing. This study assessed the impact of congestion charging on traffic and emissions in Beijing using macroscopic traffic simulation and vehicle emissions calculation. Multiple testing scenarios were developed with assumptions in different charging zone sizes, public transit service levels and charging methods. Our analysis results showed that congestion charging in Beijing may increase public transit use by approximately 13{\%}, potentially reduce CO and HC emissions by 60???70{\%}, and reduce NOx emissions by 35???45{\%} within the charging zone. However, congestion charging may also result in increased travel activities and emissions outside of the charging zone and a slight increase in emissions for the entire urban area. The size of charging zone, charging method, and charging rate are key factors that directly influence the impact of congestion charging; improved public transit service needs to be considered as a complementary approach with congestion charging. This study is used by Beijing Transportation Environment and Energy Center (BTEC) as reference to support the development of Beijing's congestion charging policy and regulation.},

Providing fast and convenient motorization, they attract both public transportation users and (former) car-owners. However, given their highly flexible nature and different pricing structures, previous findings on user groups and environmental impact of station-based car-sharing may not be easily transferable. Therefore, this research uses survey data to compare user groups and usage patterns of a free-floating and station-based car-sharing service both operating in the city of Basel, Switzerland. The findings suggest, that the schemes indeed attract different user groups and are also used differently. Moreover, we see, that car-sharing membership is governed by other factors than car-sharing activity.},

abstract = {Secure bicycle storage facilities at railway stations provide a safe and convenient option for commuters who cycle to the station to leave their bicycle during the day (bicycles are not encouraged on train during peak travel times). In large metropolitan cities encouraging commuters to link their journey to the train station with active transport has broad social benefits including increasing incidental exercise, reducing on-road vehicle congestion to the station and reducing the vehicle parking space required. However, to date there has been little research into factors that contribute to the use of secure bike storage at train stations. This study investigated the factors that may influence the level of use of secure bicycle parking at railway stations in Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne is Australia's second largest city with a population of 4.3 million and an extensive suburban rail network which includes over 200 stations. At 53 of those stations secure bicycle parking cages have been installed and they average 5.3 entries each weekday. Multivariate regression models were developed to determine the significance and impact of a range of factors on the use of these secure bicycle storage facilities. The analysis revealed that the most significant factors in explaining the variability  in usage of the facilities were: population, person's age, occupant to dwelling ratio, percentage of the population within the cycling age, car parking, and ticket zoning. Combined, these factors accounted for nearly 50 {\%} of the variability in the levels of secure bicycle parking use. Findings from this study provide valuable new insights into secure bicycle storage facility use. Importantly, for Melbourne and other cities with partial cycling storage at train stations, evidence from this study can be used to inform decisions about investment and prioritisation in secure bicycle storage facilities across the entire railway network.},

abstract = {Many cities worldwide have implemented pedestrian zones in the past years, as part of an effort to ease the impacts of congestion. However, as pedestrianisation directly affects traffic circulation, operation and accessibility, the issue of optimally selecting pedestrianisation areas within an urban road network is pivotal. The present paper applies a bi-level optimization method for identifying road links and axes within an urban road network, which, if selected for pedestrianisation, would result in the minimum impacts on overall traffic and accessibility. The method is based on a unified network performance measure for calculating the criticality of network links, using the total network demand and the difference in travel time as a consequence of a link closure. Outcomes of the proposed method are presented for a case study in Thessaloniki, Greece. Using a detailed traffic model, the authors present parts of the road network where traffic is restricted for private vehicles and turned into pedestrian zones, causing less additional travel times to the entire network. Results are expressed in traffic-related performance measures (e.g. network travel time). Road links for pedestrianisation are ranked and validated through a survey, targeted to experts and representatives of the responsible local governmental authority.},

abstract = {The problem of train trajectory optimization of two successive trains on the same line is studied in this paper. The two-train optimal control problem is formulated by using the multiple-phase method of optimal control, in which the train schedules as well as train performance parameters and track gradients, curves and speed limits are taken into account. The objective is to ensure a smooth, safe, punctual, and energy-efficient train operation. A green-wave (GW) policy is adopted to ensure that the trains proceed safely under all green signals. Special objective functions and constraints are developed in case of train delays. The method is applied in a case study of two successive trains running on a railway line with various input delays showing the benefit of the GW policy and the ability of delay recovery.},

abstract = {In recent years, commuting by bicycle has been encouraged as a way of improving health and fitness. However, some studies have shown that although cyclists do not create air pollution, they experience increased exposure to air pollution compared to other road users. Moreover, air pollution exposure is associated with increased risk of lung cancer, cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. In order to understand the extent of the health risk faced by cyclists due to air pollution, it is essential to be able to quantify the pollution exposures of cyclists and the contributions of factors such as traffic volumes, cycling facilities and meteorological conditions. Until recently, gaseous pollution sensors were prohibitively large and expensive and/or had poor temporal resolution. However, recent advances in electrochemical sensor technology and low power electronics present an opportunity to characterize the pollution exposure of cyclists at high spatial and temporal resolution. This study presents the development and validation of a custom sensing platform incorporating a low cost NOₓ sensor. The platform is used along with a heart rate monitor and GPS tracking to explore the air pollution exposure concentrations and intake rate of a cyclist on two routes in Dublin city. Mixed linear models are used to explore the effects of variables relating to the road network, the weather and cyclist behavior. It has been found that cycle lanes adjacent to the road reduce NOₓ exposure concentrations by 32{\%} and bus lanes increase NOₓ exposure concentrations by 12{\%} compared to on-road cycling. NOₓ intake per meter was not significantly associated with the type of cycling facility. These results may aid urban planners in designing cycling facilities in order to mitigate the health impacts of air pollution.},

abstract = {Bus bunching is a well-known phenomenon on many bus routes where an initial delay to one 4 service can disturb the whole schedule due to resulting differences in dwell times of subsequent 5 buses at stops. This paper deals with the passenger behavior when there is more than one bus 6 serving the stop, focusing on their choices and possible switching actions from the queue of 7 the bus they are waiting to board. A parameter ? is introduced to denote the percentage of 8 passengers boarding the front bus when buses are bunched. Cases when overtaking is allowed 9 or not are distinguished as they will also influence the passenger behavior. A set of discrete 10 state equations is then implemented to obtain the departure times of the buses following the 11 occurrence of an exogenous delay to one of the buses. Evaluation indices are introduced to 12 measure the performance of the bus service along a corridor under different ? levels. We find 13 that it is advantageous to keep the percentage of passengers boarding the front bus low. Beside, 14 overtaking is a favourable counter-measure against comparatively high front-bus preference.},

Still, general conditions are identified under which drones are likely to provide a CO2 benefit – when service zones are close to the depot, have small numbers of stops, or both. Additionally, measures of VMT for both modes were found to be relatively consistent with existing literature that compares traditional passenger travel with truck delivery.},

abstract = {Average Annual Daily Bicyclists (AADB) is commonly used by researchers and practitioners as a metric for cycling studies (demand analysis, infrastructure planning, injury risk, etc.). It is estimated in one of two ways: by averaging the daily cyclist totals measured throughout the year using a long-term automatic bicycle counter, or by using a long-term bicycle counter to extrapolate data from a short-duration counting site. AADB extrapolation is a process that can face two issues: it can produce considerable errors when using traditional factoring methods, and it is laborious as many steps in the process require manual validation. To help lessen these two problems, this study proposes a novel methodology that can reduce estimation error and facilitate automation of the AADB estimation process. The proposed methodology performs AADB estimation in a three- step process: data validation, matching and extrapolating. The data validation process can be the most laborious process, requiring a human to sift through large datasets in search for missing and erroneous values. A method is proposed for validating long-term bicycle demand data by using other available long-term bicycle demand data. Secondly, a matching process is proposed using k-means clustering and three indexes. Lastly, for the AADB extrapolation process, two novel disaggregated factor methods (DFM)s are proposed. The results are compared to the results obtained from a previously reported method, standard DFM. The first method, the DFM with filtering, improved the AADB estimation accuracy: average absolute error was 5.6{\%} compared to 4.2{\%}. The second method, the DFM with separate treatment of weekdays and weekends reduced AADB estimate error from 6.0{\%} to 4.9{\%}.},

The analysis is conducted across local voter precincts (N = 2373 in the state) because they are a useful proxy for neighborhoods and well-sized for implementing policy designed to encourage sustainable travel behavior. Virginia is especially appropriate for an examination of variability in sustainable travel behavior and technologies because the state's transportation, demographic, and political patterns are particularly diverse and have been changing rapidly. We identify four Virginia precinct-based sustainability clusters: Sweet Spots, Emerging Sweet Spots, Neutral and Non-sustaining. A model of demographic differences among the clusters shows that sustainability outcomes, understood in terms of both local commute behavior and vehicle emissions, are significantly associated with the diverse demography and politics of the state. We also look at changes in transportation sustainability and socio-demographic trends within the clusters over the past half-decade, showing that differences in sustainability and demographic metrics are actually accelerating within the state over time. We conclude with a discussion of the implications of the differences among the clusters for developing and implementing effective transportation sustainability policies across the state.},

In this paper the authors incorporate different types of automatic sensor technologies to monitor pedestrian activities at the entire facility level. A case study is done during a large street festival in Montr{\'{e}}al covering more than ten street blocks. The authors use WiFi sensors developed in-house to determine origin-destination sequences of pedestrians. One hundred hours of video recordings were collected and computer vision tools are being used for automated processing. Infrared counters are used during the ten days of the festival to obtain extrapolation factors that are then applied to the WiFi data to calculate the exact festival attendance. The results are to be used by the festival organization group for future planning, operations and financing.},

abstract = {Few Canadian children meet current physical activity recommendations, especially children from households with lower socioeconomic status (SES). Previous work suggests that accessibility to, quality of, and cost of physical activity-promoting facilities influence physical activity levels. Disparities in accessibility to physical activity resources may contribute to neighborhood health and social inequalities. Many studies examine geographic accessibility to health-promoting facilities in residential neighborhoods and ignore individual mobility and other barriers to access such as cost and quality. This study examines SES differences in accessibility to physical activity facilities for schoolchildren as they move throughout the day. It does so by using activity spaces measured with a modified version of a road network buffer and a shortest-path network estimation method. SES-based differences in use and quality of visited physical activity resources are also considered. Results indicate that the high-SES sample has greater accessibility to physical activity facilities and uses them more frequently. Used facilities are of higher quality than those used by children living in low-SES neighborhoods. Cost is identified as a potential barrier to facility access for the low-SES group. To combat neighborhood health inequalities, cities should aim to provide high-quality, affordable, and accessible resources across all neighborhoods.},

abstract = {This contribution puts forward a flexible approach to model the decision-making or design con- troller for automated driving systems, where tactical-level lane change decisions and control-level accelerations are jointly evaluated based on iteratively solving an online optimization problem. The key idea is that automated vehicles determine lane change times and accelerations in the predicted future to minimize an objective function representing multiple criteria of driving safety, efficiency and comfort. The interactions between controlled vehicles and surrounding vehicles are captured in the objective function. The approach can be applied to model non-cooperative decision-making of autonomous vehicles with optimization of own cost and cooperative behavior of connected vehicles with joint optimization of the collective cost. The problem is formulated as a differential game where automated vehicles make decisions based on the expected behavior of surrounding vehicles. An efficient numerical solution algorithm is used to solve problem. The proposed model perfor- mance is demonstrated via numerical examples. The results show that the proposed approach can produce efficient lane-changing maneuvers while obeying safety and comfort requirements. Particularly, the approach generates optimal lane change times and accelerations in the predicted future, including strategic overtaking and cooperative merging scenarios.},

abstract = {While a large number of studies have examined the effects of various measures of the built environment on travel behavior outcomes, far fewer have combined such measures to create a holistic description of the built environment in order to investigate how the overall character of a neighborhood relates to the travel decisions of residents. To address this gap in the literature, the authors develop a neighborhood typology by applying factor analysis and then cluster analysis to a set of 20 variables describing built environment characteristics for most census tracts in the United States. Based on the results of the analysis, the authors characterize each census tract as belonging to one of seven distinct types: Rural, New Development, Patchwork (mostly suburban), Established Suburbs, Urban Residential, Old Urban, or Mixed-use (mostly urban). The authors incorporate these types into a set of multivariate regression models to determine the effect of neighborhood type on the travel behavior of neighborhood residents. Controlling for personal and household characteristics, the authors find relatively little variation in the number of daily trips among neighborhood types, but substantial neighborhood variation in both personal miles traveled and mode choice. Travel by residents of the Old Urban neighborhood type, which is found almost exclusively in a handful of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States, is particularly distinctive and is distinguished by a very low number miles traveled, little solo driving, and high transit use.},

abstract = {As advanced intelligent transportation systems become more prevalent with the use of cyber-physical systems, information and communications technologies, and Big Data, there is an increasing need to improve the process of technology evaluation. Existing procedures typically involve pure computer simulations followed by expensive and restricted field studies. We propose a more integrated solution: using mobile devices to mimic the algorithms within actual technologies so that advanced technological design alternatives can be cheaply evaluated on the field. A process architecture is developed for a tablet-based cyber-physical surrogate system. The tablet devices can mimic many equipment packages and can transmit data, location, text, and video between themselves and a central facility. Measures of effectiveness are identified for evaluating these surrogate systems in field trials. Three surrogate systems are implemented as field experiments conducted on the Ryerson University campus in Toronto, ON. The experiments? measures of effectiveness are deviation from a schedule, total process time, and person counts-applicable to many real world transportation problems. The experiments demonstrate how we can quantitatively measure these technologies from the field: an average improvement of 64{\%} in cumulative schedule deviation for the Uniform Arrivals experiment, 27{\%} in the total process time for the Scavenger Hunt experiment, but a poor mimic error when evaluating the LIVEGAUGE stationary sensor. An open-source online repository for these surrogate systems is created and discussed. {\textcopyright} 2009-2012 IEEE.},

abstract = {This report examines public sentiment towards transit at statewide and local geographies using results from the 2014 Texas Transportation Poll. The 2014 Texas Transportation Poll, conducted by researchers at the Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute, asked the following open-ended question of Texans: “what is the most significant transportation issue affecting you personally in your region?” The question elicited over 3,000 independent responses, over 10 percent of which made reference to public transportation. Many of these comments about public transportation were from respondents in the Austin region, and expressed support for additional or improved public transit services. This expressed support of transit did not materialize in action at the polls. In the fall of 2014, residents of Austin voted down a bond proposal that would have created an urban rail line and funded road improvements. This study explores the use of qualitative analysis to extract meaningful insights from public comments, using the comments received from the Texas Transportation Poll to explain the discrepancy between opinions expressed in the poll and voting behavior during the Austin urban rail proposal, and to assess the usefulness and limitations of qualitative analysis on open-ended opinion data. Findings from this analysis reveal opportunities for improving public support of public transit initiatives by understanding and incorporating public sentiment at the state and local level and contribute to a new way for transportation agencies to interact with and understand the travel needs of their constituents in the 21st century.},

abstract = {Bicycling is becoming more and more prevalent due to its societal and personal benefits. Consequently, understanding bicyclists' behavior and considering bicyclists as relevant elements in transport and traffic modelling is essential. To assess operational aspects, bicyclists' behavior at intersections is particularly important, as intersections have a large impact on overall system performance and safety. In contrast to motorized vehicles, bicyclists typically have multiple (legal and illegal) path options to travel through an intersection. This study presents a discrete choice model to predict the path on which left-turning bicyclists travel through signalized intersections. To accomplish this objective, revealed preference data from busy intersections in Munich, Germany, has been collected through video observations. The exhibited left-turning maneuvers are categorized in three types: bicycle turn, pedestrian turn and vehicular turn. After a careful analysis of the initial set of explanatory variables, unnecessary variables are omitted from the model. For the data analysis, a multinomial logit model is developed in order to identify the influence of the individual factors. A field effect variable is examined, which reflects the influence of the choice of the peer decision-makers. The results of the study reveal that among the selected variables, seconds passed since the beginning of the red phase of the signal is the most influential parameter followed by the approaching speed of the bicyclist. Ultimately, an external validation was performed with an independent dataset from the same intersection, and the result shows 86{\%} accuracy in the model prediction.},

Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

abstract = {This paper examines preliminary results of an electric bike (e-bike) pilot project, which took place April 2014–September 2015 in the Portland region. Participants from three Kaiser Permanente Northwest campuses (1 urban and 2 suburban) were issued an e-bike for 10 weeks to use for various trip purposes, focusing on first/last-mile commuting. Participants were asked to complete three surveys—before, during and after using the e-bike—to evaluate how their perceptions and levels of cycling may have changed. Responses were analyzed using statistical software and a global information system (GIS). Results show that participants biked more often and to a wider variety of places than before the study; they become more confident cyclists after the study; and they cited fewer barriers to cycling when given the opportunity to use an e-bike, particularly for overcoming hills and reducing sweat. This study's preliminary findings support the general hypothesis that e-bikes enable users to bike to more distant locations, bike more frequently and allow a broader participation in cycling by certain segments of the population through reducing barriers to cycling. Further research is needed to understand how e-bikes might replace other modes of transportation, including standard bicycles, vehicles and public transit.},

abstract = {Efficient training is an essential component of work force development for transportation agencies. The South Carolina Department of Transportation (DOT) recognized one such training need in its management of contracts for professional services consultants. This recognition led to a research effort to identify standardized procedures in the procurement and administration of these contracts, resulting in the development of a training manual and daylong pilot training session. Although the session received positive feedback, it limited the time and location for delivery. This traditional, in-class method is no longer the only available option. Asynchronous online training presents agencies with the option of providing training to employees regardless of their spatial or schedule variabilities while minimizing the need for instructor effort and availability. In light of this change, the South Carolina DOT commissioned a subsequent research effort to study best practices for development, delivery, and assessment of online training and to use these findings to create training modules of the previously completed manual and training session. The focus of this paper is to present the process for developing asynchronous online training employed for the 10 modules, which total roughly 5 h. Although this process is based on best practices, they are not discussed at length; rather, references to findings are made where they pertain. The process, unique lessons learned, and advisable practices are discussed. The paper's presentation of the online development process can be applied to other transportation agencies intending to implement asynchronous online training for professional development.},

abstract = {Looking at the entire United States and travel behavior of individuals in urban areas, gives rise to interesting, at the same time challenging, questions such as: how dissimilar are spatial-temporal distributions of activities across the regions? And what causes such dissimilarities? Individuals, as intelligent agents, presumably make their activity engagement decisions based on their preferences and within the constraints imposed both by endogenous as well as exogenous variables. A better understanding of the influences of urban forms on the daily spatial-temporal distribution of population across the regions, is a crucial factor to provide practical tools for planning and modeling purposes. With the notion of travel being a derived demand, it is the daily needs/desires of individuals that lead them to travel in the network. The needs and desires to participate in activities presumably depend on demographics and social preferences, as well as on the built environment. In this paper, the authors perform a regional analysis aimed at providing an understanding of the dynamic nature of activity participation behavior. The analysis encompasses the daily activity/travel behavior of individuals located in five disparate urban regions - ‘New York area (5 boroughs)', ‘Los Angeles County', ‘Chicago', ‘San Francisco', and ‘Atlanta'. Using pattern segmentation techniques, the authors generate trajectories of patterns across different regions to address three goals: 1) clustering activity patterns to find the optimum set of representative patterns such that activity engagement behavior of the entire population in each of these regions can be represented by a small set of representative patterns; 2) analyzing the dissimilarities in the set of representative patterns in different regions and assessing change in time-use behavior of travelers with certain demographics; and 3) assessing the impact of urban form and demographics of travelers on pattern trajectories. The study provides a valid platform to generate and compare activity patterns, which can be used to develop practical tools for better planning for the future of urban forms.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2016, National Research Council. All rights reserved.Although a road network provides transportation for people and goods, several negative ecological impacts stem from a road network. Significant effects of concern for rural roads include an increase in the number of road-stream crossings, which can potentially cause fish passage problems, in-stream habitat impacts, increased stream sedimentation, and an increase in potentially affected wetlands through hydrologic alteration. Although several studies have examined and quantified the effects that roads have on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, many studies may have been made on the basis of incomplete road network data sets. An updated and improved road network data set is needed before researchers can draw inferences that quantify the total ecological impact that a road network has on an ecosystem. The purpose of this work was to develop an updated and improved regional road network data layer through interpretation of existing multitemporal aerial imagery, with the resulting geographic information system layer being applied in ecological analyses and planning. Results from two watersheds in Michigan's Upper Peninsula indicated that each watershed experienced an approximate increase of 200{\%} in total road mileage when compared with the results from the original road network data set. Individual hydrological unit code level-12 subwatersheds within each watershed experienced an increase ranging from 16{\%} to 2,700{\%}. The number of road-stream crossings for each watershed also increased by at least 100{\%}. The updated road network data set also reported the location and total area of wetlands that have potential hydrological impacts, ranging from 70,000 ha to 121,000 ha for each watershed.},

The construction of bicycle lane networks has been identified as an effective tool for increasing citizen's mobility and accessibility as well as combatting the effects of motorization, but in cities where bicycle lane networks exist, it is not known if they have benefitted different income groups equally. This paper assesses the extent to which bicycle lane provisioning has been equitable among neighbourhoods in Rio de Janeiro and Curitiba. Both cities were found to have more than twice the supply of bicycle lanes in the wealthiest quintile than the lowest-income quintile relative to area and population. A network analysis using a Level of Traffic Safety classification to categorize roads found that wealthier areas have more commercial areas accessible along safer cycling routes. Implications for cycling policy and future research are discussed.},

A purposely collected data on commuting mode choice behaviour in Toronto was used. It was found that car users associated private transportation with a higher expectancy but attached a higher value to transit. This indicates that while they find cars to be the better mode for work trips currently, they would switch to transit given comparable levels of service to the private automobile. Transit users, on the other hand, attached a higher value to the car implying that they would switch modes provided no economic or geographical limitations. Car users were also found to have strong positive correlations to habit formation with respect to their own mode. This has significant policy implications – once formed, these habits seem very hard to break. As such, it is imperative that the transit network make a concerted effort to attract young users who haven't yet used automobiles to a significant degree, lest they fall into the same routine that current car users are in.},

abstract = {The prevalence of social networks in recent times make people travel in so many different ways. Ride sharing is getting more popular and people make joint trips. People are more likely to carpool with friends as compared to traditional modes of travel such as driving own car, using transits and so on. This behavior is predominant during special events when individuals make trips to a specific location on a given day and time from various parts of the city. In turn, accommodating the travel demand generated during a special event is key to its success. This paper presents a multinomial logit model that identifies the determining factor for attendants in selecting one of five modes to reach the football arena at Purdue University: car, walk, carpool, bus and other. Using a personal network research design (PNRD) approach, socio-demographic attributes of egos and alters were collected and correlated to produce social network variables that were tested in the model framework. The estimations of this model reveals that the preference over a travel mode is related to a set of network variables (homophily, heterogeneity and density), and that proximity to campus play an important influence on selecting a private mode as compared to a shared ride or walk. The findings of this study construct a framework for the modal split during a special event that would help campus policy developers to foster ride sharing and transit authorities to better plan for such occasions, facilitating access to the venue location and improving overall experience of attendants.},

abstract = {Prediction of Origin-Destination (OD) demand is an important topic in transportation engineering, as it is a crucial input for dynamic traffic management and control system. Previous literature has focused primarily on estimation and prediction of OD demand with Kalman filtering, however these lack in efficiency when predicting unusually fluctuating OD demand of a large OD network in real-time. With true, real-time OD demand data in Korean expressway, this paper proposes a data-driven prediction framework of OD demand in a large network for real-time services, by modifying k-Nearest Neighbor algorithm. Three strategies that implement different feature vectors for kNN prediction-single-level OD demand, multi- level OD demand, and single-level point demand are proposed. The strategies were tested on hourly OD demand in Korea. The average MAPE values of three strategies in terms of total demand are 5.52{\%}, 5.34{\%}, and 3.36{\%} in the above order, where single-level point demand performs slightly better. Similarly, for MAPE and weighted MAPE in terms of individual OD demand, single-level point demand performs better than two other strategies, especially for OD pairs with larger demand size and for further prediction horizons. In addition, the single-level point demand shows the highest computation efficiency. Therefore, the single-level point demand strategy for kNN prediction shows the best combination of accuracy and computation efficiency among the three strategies. Furthermore, historical database size of at least 300 dates for this data-driven prediction algorithm seems required for accuracy},

abstract = {Knowledge and communication are key aspects of interactions between humans. If the authors consider the evacuation from a facility with broken escape routes, people will likely share the information with others who run into coming from the opposite direction and heading towards the broken route. In the case of a dense crowd, the information about the state of an escape route for instance needs some time to reach the people at the back. In this contribution the authors model the process of gathering and sharing information. The authors use a variation of the Sznajd missionary model for propagating the information, where neighbours have a probability of changing their opinion. In addition the authors introduce different traits of pedestrians steered by a risk awareness probability. With lower risk awareness, people are more probable to accept the new information given by others. People with a higher risk factor will only trust information they have gather themselves. The concept has been demonstrated on scenario with multiple escape routes. Two of the escape routes become unavailable during the simulation. The influence of the propagation speed and the personality traits of pedestrians on the overall evacuation times has been investigated. The authors show that the compliance rate to new information has a positive impact on the egress time. The propagation speed plays a major role when the evacuees are less refractory to the new information. In the other case, the dominant factor is the percentage of evacuees refusing new information.},

However, the escalation of house values and rents near rail transit 3 stations could severely hinder the access of these families to transit, resulting in gentrification or even 4 displacement. This paper focuses on this potential externality of transit investments, and presents a 5 methodology that explores the spatial nature of socioeconomic changes in an urban area taking into 6 account the spatial dependence in the data. The measure of socioeconomic change utilized in this study is 7 the relative increase of income per capita. A preliminary analysis is conducted for the urban area of the 8 Denver-Aurora-Lakewood Metropolitan Statistical Area in Colorado. A spatial lag model was estimated 9 based on the assumption that an individual chooses her or his location of residence on the basis of the 10 characteristics of the greater region. Evidence of higher socioeconomic change was detected within 2 11 miles of the 23 new stations of the Light Rail facility. The findings of this paper reinforce the need for 12 equitable transit-oriented development and government policies that support affordable housing near rail 13 transit stations.},

abstract = {Early indications of a significant generational change in travel behavior have raised hopes of robust growth in transit use in the immediate future, especially as the millennial generation comes of age. The eventual transition to family life and child rearing, however, has led to significant declines in the transit use rates of older-age cohorts. For high transit-use rates of millennials to be durable, the relationship between the presence of children and travel behavior must change. Despite lower rates of automobile ownership by millennials than by previous cohorts, automobile ownership is still widespread: increased attraction of choice riders is important for growth in transit use as well. This study looks for changes in the basic relationship between the presence of young children or automobile access and the probability of transit use from 2000 to 2010 on the basis of data from the decennial Travel Behavior Inventory by the Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. Pooled logistic regression models at both the trip and person level find that automobile access was a weaker negative predictor of transit use in 2010 and that the presence of young children in participants' households negatively predicted transit use in 2000 but not in 2010. Chow tests establish that these observed changes represent significant changes in the mode choice relationships in question. The results call for research on similar potential changes in other regions and underscore the importance of family-oriented housing and community features in transit-served areas.},

A stochastic mixed-integer program was formulated to minimize not only operational costs of various modes and transfer costs at terminals but also penalty costs associated with unsatisfed demands. The sample average approximation algorithm was used to solve this challenging problem. The developed model was then applied to two networks-a hypothetical 15-node network and an actual intermodal network in the Gulf Coast, Southeastern, and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States-to demonstrate its applicability with explicit consideration of disruptions at links, nodes, and terminals. The model results indicated that during disruptions, goods in the study region should be shipped by road-rail intermodal network because of the built-in redundancy of the freight transport network. Additionally, the routes generated by the model were found to be more robust than those typically used by freight carriers.},

abstract = {Predicting the binding mode of flexible polypeptides to proteins is an important task that falls outside the domain of applicability of most small molecule and protein−protein docking tools. Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

abstract = {The formation of new firms is one process by which economies grow and innovate. Public transportation services may facilitate the birth of new firms by both providing better access and causing local densification that leads to agglomeration economies. In this study firm births are investigated to determine how they are related to newly provided light rail transit service in two metropolitan areas in the United States. A geocoded time-series database of firm establishments in Dallas, Texas, and Portland, Oregon, from 1991 through 2008 is used. The data set allows the study of spatial patterns by industry and the analysis of the relationship of firm births to rail station proximity, accessibility, and local agglomeration while controlling for a number of potentially confounding factors. Positive, large, and statistically significant relationships are found in Portland between rail station proximity and firm births. The rail proximity results in Dallas are also generally positive, though not as large; this finding is consistent with the smaller accessibility value of rail in Dallas, as well as policies encouraging commercial development near rail in Portland. Rail proximity increases firm births across almost all industrial sectors in both of these metropolitan areas when controlling for the negative effects on firm births of local own-industry employment. Local block-level agglomeration and generalized accessibility are also highly significant but appear to work independently of rail access. These results imply that passenger rail service increases firm births near rail stations by expanding access to the labor market but not by increasing information spillovers or increasing face-to-face interactions.},

abstract = {A meta-analysis was conducted to study the effect of a change in the speed limit on mean driving speed and safety on interurban roads. Information from 108 research results—documented in a database collected by Elvik et al. in 2004—was analyzed. The link between accident ratio (after–before) and the mean driving speed ratio was studied by estimating the power parameter in the Nilsson power model. A modified power model was applied to estimate the link between speed limit (rather than mean driving speed) ratio and accidents ratio. When the speed limit was raised, the mean driving speed ratio (mean driving speed after to mean driving speed before) was on average 1.04 (SD = 0.04), significantly higher than 1 but smaller than the speed limit ratio (average = 1.17; SD = 0.05). The power parameters in Nilsson's power model and in its modified version were 3.73 (SD = 2.61) and 0.99 (SD = 0.46), respectively. When speed limit was reduced, the mean driving speed ratio was 0.93 (SD = 0.04), significantly smaller than 1 but larger than the speed limit ratio (average = 0.82; SD = 0.04). The corresponding power parameters were 2.81 (SD = 0.65) and 1.24 (SD = 0.44). This paper summarizes research on the link between changes in speed limit, driving speed, and safety. It was found that the average speed changed in the same direction as the speed limit, but the magnitude of the change was smaller. As a result, the power parameters in the second version of the power model were lower than those in the original Nilsson's model, and so the average change in safety is nearly proportional to the change in speed limit.},

abstract = {Social equity is increasingly incorporated as a long-term objective into urban transportation plans. Researchers use accessibility measures to assess equity issues, such as determining the amount of jobs reachable by marginalized groups within a defined travel time threshold and compare these measures across socioeconomic categories. However, allocating public transit resources in an equitable manner is not only related to travel time, but also related to the out-of-pocket cost of transit, which can represent a major barrier to accessibility for many disadvantaged groups. Therefore, this research proposes a set of new accessibility measures that incorporates both travel time and transit fares. It then applies those measures to determine whether people residing in socially disadvantaged neighborhoods in Montreal, Canada experience the same levels of transit accessibility as those living in other neighborhoods. Results are presented in terms of regional accessibility and trends by social indicator decile. Travel time accessibility measures estimate a higher number of jobs that can be reached compared to combined travel time and cost measures. However, the degree and impact of these measures varies across the social deciles. Compared to other groups in the region, residents of socially disadvantaged areas have more equitable accessibility to jobs using transit; this is reflected in smaller decreases in accessibility when fare costs are included. Generating new measures of accessibility combining travel time and transit fares provides more accurate measures that can be easily communicated by transportation planners and engineers to policy makers and the public since it translates accessibility measures to a dollar value.},

As a result, numerous studies have been carried out to investigate the causes, factors, and features of such accidents, along with research focusing on the simulation of bus fires scenario. However, a detailed analysis on the causes of bus fires and the inter-relationships of risk factors is lacking. This study identifies 17 risk factors associated with bus fires through an analysis of accident records from China using the Delphi approach. Then, an integrated interpretative structural modeling (ISM) and Matrice d'Impacts Crois{\'{e}}s Multiplication Appliqu{\'{e}}e {\`{a}} Classement (MICMAC) analysis is adopted in this study to explore the interactions among risk factors associated with bus fires. ISM, along with MICMAC analysis, provides a useful hierarchy of risk factors whose individual relationships are unambiguous but whose group relationships are too complex to organize intuitively. This can help practitioners better understand risk dependencies and prioritize risk-mitigation efforts. Results show that a lack of safety education and safety knowledge popularization and inadequate laws and regulations are the two most important risk factors associated with bus fires. Drivers also play an important role in preventing accidents. The analysis can be extended to risk analysis in other types of accidents, i.e., railway accidents and coach accidents.},

Visitor travel is a special market for many communities that enjoy the benefits of being a destination for visitors from outside the region. Visitor travel can affect the transportation system in a community as well as benefiting the economy. Visitor travel is often not modeled explicitly because of the cost associated with collecting behaviorally rich survey data to support model development. This paper presents a low-cost option for collecting travel behavior data for special markets through the administration of a small-sample intercept survey of persons staying in recreational vehicle (RV) campgrounds in the French Broad River region of North Carolina. Analysis of the survey data showed that travel by these surveyed RV households was different from both retired and seasonal part-time resident households, captured in the region's household travel survey. Development of a special market model to address travel by RV visitors in the region is also discussed.},

abstract = {Dial-a-ride system has been developed maturely in some European countries and the USA. Dial-a-ride is a type of transportation service in paratransit system for ride-sharing purpose as well as for the disabled group who can neither access to car nor public transit. This system mainly depends on the mini bus with neither a fixed line nor fixed time schedule. Dial-a-ride system itself can be more flexible so that it can meet special transportation demands as compared to general public transit. In general, this system can be the complement of public transit. At the very beginning DAR system is used for the general groups. However DAR is also designed for providing transportation service for vulnerable groups such as aged and disabled people. The system consists of reservation, specialized vehicle delivery, professional care and other relative services. With the development of civilized society, we should pay more attention to the vulnerable group when we try to allocate social resources equally. Vulnerable group is in this study defined a group of people who can't enjoy same right to access public transit service as general public do. According to this, the purpose of establishing a dial-a-ride system for vulnerable groups is to make vulnerable groups enjoy the same transportation service as other commuters. The motivation behind conducting this study is to address the needs to provide transportation service system for vulnerable group and raise awareness of importance to build DART at local, regional and nationwide levels. Although the vulnerable groups in Beijing are quite large, dial-a-ride services have not been established, yet. From observation it is found that the existing public transit can't come up with good services for the disable people. With regard to this situation the objective of this paper attempts to explore the build-up of dial-a-ride service for disable people from the following five aspects. First thing is budget. Dial-a-ride belongs to welfare type of thing for the public. Therefore, this system should enjoy receiving financial aid from all levels of governments as subsidy. Second thing is to work out system planning for dial-a-ride from transportation point of view. Regional as well as local centers should be set up to plan, design and manage dial-a-ride services for the city of Beijing because Beijing itself has more than 1 million disabled people. The third thing is to conduct comprehensive training for operators. Since the service receivers are disable people it is necessary to provide technical and management training for the drivers and staff workers. The fourth thing is to set policy to make this system work. The last thing is the publicity of dial-a-ride service. Actually, publicity is the guarantee of the former four steps. It is our responsibility to make the vulnerable group enjoy the convenient services provided by civilized society. Apart from that the group can be treated equally in their choice of travel means. It is believed that dial-a-ride will become a part of our urban public transit systems and function as a demand-response system for fulfilling the travel desire of vulnerable group.},

abstract = {This paper describes an investigation of the effects of safety chains on the dynamics of truck and full trailer combinations in the event of a catastrophic failure of the primary pin coupling. Safety chains on drawbar couplings are not mandatory in Australia for truck and full trailer combinations but are recognized as having the potential to reduce the crash risk and the severity of crash outcomes. Some industry stakeholders, predominantly drivers, have expressed safety-related concerns about the potential unintended effects of the chains on the dynamics of the hauling unit in the event of a coupling failure. The on-road dynamics of truck and full trailer combinations connected only by safety chains was assessed in various scenarios through field tests of several driving maneuvers, in which dynamic performance data were recorded by a data-logging system. Through the analysis of the recorded data and observations made by the driver of the vehicle and other observers, it was found that neither the truck nor the trailer demonstrated unsafe behavior in any of the tested maneuvers. It was determined that a truck–trailer combination could be brought safely to a stop in the event of a primary connection failure, up to the highest tested speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). These findings strongly indicate that there is little potential for safety concerns to arise as a result of fitting safety chains to the drawbar couplings of these truck configurations.},

In previous papers, a single speed is computed for each vehicle in a range between acceptable minimum and maximum values (for example between standstill and the speed limit). This speed is assumed to be constant until the beginning of the green interval, and sent as advice to the vehicle. The goal is to optimise for a particular objective, whether it be minimisation of emissions (for environmental reasons), fuel usage or delay. This paper generalises the advice given to a vehicle, by optimising for delay over the entire trajectory instead of suggesting an individual speed, regardless of initial conditions – time until green, distance to intersection and initial speed. This may require multiple acceleration manoeuvres, so the advice is sent as a suggested acceleration at each time step. Such advice also takes into account a suitable safety constraint, ensuring that vehicles are always able to stop before the intersection during a red interval, thus safeguarding against last-minute signal control schedule changes. While the algorithms developed primarily minimise delay, they also help to reduce fuel usage and emissions by conserving kinetic energy. Since vehicles travel in platoons, the effectiveness of a GLOSA system is heavily reliant on correctly identifying the leading vehicle that is the first to be given trajectory advice for each cycle. Vehicles naturally form a platoon behind this leading vehicle. A time loop technique is proposed which allows accurate identification of the leader even when there are complex interactions between preceding vehicles. The developed algorithms are ideal for connected autonomous vehicle environments, because computer control allows vehicles' trajectories to be managed with greater accuracy and ease. However, the advice algorithms can also be used in conjunction with manual control provided Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication is available.},

abstract = {The improvement of walking space has become important for preserving the idea of a compact city and for revitalization of city centers. However, evaluation methods for walking spaces have not been well established. This study focused on the concept of pedestrian smiles recorded by security cameras, aimed to develop an evaluation index of walking spaces using pedestrian smiles. The authors developed a pedestrian smile calculating system using facial expression sensors by detecting pedestrians' faces in a video file, calculating the degree of the individual's smile level at an approximate rate of twice a second. The system had a utility to detect a pedestrian's face and calculate the level of their smile. The authors analyzed the video files recorded at various railway stations using the pedestrian smile calculating system. In addition, the authors analyzed the road configurations and other factors that could impact the degree of pedestrians' smiles. As a result, it was found that as the number of vehicles increased, the degree of smiles decreased on the streets without sidewalks. On the streets with sidewalks where the width of the sidewalk was more than 3 m, the degree of pedestrians' smile increased. The degree of smile became lower where pedestrians and bicycles crossed each other. In conclusion, the results suggest that the pedestrian smile calculating system could become a new index for evaluating the quality of walking spaces.},

abstract = {Because there is a conflict between promoting the level of service and saving operation resources in passenger flow congestion management for urban rail transit (URT), the congestion duration forecast has become an important decision-support element for management optimization. This paper presents a hazard-based duration model for the purpose of accurate duration forecasting considering loss minimization for decision making. The congestion duration was modeled with a hazard-based approach and revised by a strategy imitating the Bayesian minimum risk rule. Six hundred twenty-seven congestion instances during 470 days from Metro Line 2 of Nanjing, China, were divided into a training data set and a testing data set and were used for model implementation and performance evaluation. The model estimation results indicate that the log-logistic distribution produces the best ft for congestion during weekdays according to the Akaike information criterion, and the accuracy of the duration model is high according to the mean absolute percentage error. The model was also confrmed to be stable over time in the two data sets. In addition, the contrast of losses for the median forecast and the revisionary forecast based on numerical examples in the data set shows that the forecast revising strategy realizes a considerable relative decrease in the loss caused by the randomness of duration. The results of this study are useful for URT congestion management and provide a demonstration of a revising method to reduce economic loss resulting from forecast deviation.},

abstract = {Walking facilities are important infrastructures which must be designed to accommodate the behavior of pedestrians to be effective. Heterogeneity in pedestrian composition is one important factor generally overlooked in walking facility design guidelines. Particularly, individuals with disabilities are often ignored due to lack of available data on their pedestrian behaviors. A controlled large-scaled walking experiment involving individuals with disabilities was conducted at Utah State University to observe individual pedestrian walking behaviors in various walking facilities; including a passageway and bottleneck. The purpose of this paper is twofold: (1) to model time headway between different individual types using a mixed distribution model, and (2) to estimate passageway and bottleneck capacities and identify impacts of involving individuals with disabilities on capacity estimations. Analysis revealed that visual impaired individuals and individuals using non-motorized wheelchair/walkers had the minimum capacity reduction on passageway and bottleneck, respectively and individuals using motorized wheelchairs had maximum capacity reduction effect on passageway and bottleneck. The findings are expected to improve the estimation of facility capacity required to meet a preferred level-of-service for heterogeneous populations.},

With simultaneous modeling of car ownership as an endogenous variable in determining influences on travel outcomes and allowing SEM intercepts to vary across built-form categories, one controls for car ownership endogeneity while measuring within-and between-built-form variations through incorporating random intercepts in the model. The new models unambiguously decompose the self-selection and spatial sorting of household effects from the influence of the built-form characteristics. This research further investigates trend-breaking influences by generating pre-2007 and post-2007 model outputs with a multitime-period structure. The new quantifications are built on more-robust statistical theories than hitherto and, thus, imply significant implications on how to interpret the effect of recent transformations in UK inner cities. The method can also be used to produce a regular and timely update on any shifts in the influences on travel and provide feedback for land use planning and integrated built-form and transport interventions.},

It was found that passenger vans provide indispensable services to travelers in Bangkok, in terms of both point-to-point services between residential areas and commercial centers and feeder services connecting areas underserved by public transport to rail transit systems. Starting as informal services, passenger vans in Bangkok have become legalized over the years. With constantly growing demand and supply restriction by excessive regulations, the licenses for legal operation have become prohibitively expensive. Together with lax regulatory enforcement and prevalent corruption, there is a proliferation of unregistered vans that compete directly against registered vans.

abstract = {Microsimulation modeling is one of the contemporary techniques that has potential to perform complex transportation studies faster, safer, and in a less expensive manner. However, to get accurate and reliable results, the microsimulation models need to be well calibrated. Microsimulation model consists of various sub-models each having many parameters, most of which are user-adjustable and are attuned for calibrating the model. Manual calibration involves an iterative trial-and-error process of using the intuitive discrete values of each parameter and feasible combinations of multiple para-meters each time until the desired results are obtained. With this approach, it is possible to easily get caught in a never-ending circular process of fixing one problem only to generate another. This can make manual calibration a time-consuming process and is suggested only when the number of parameters is small. However, when the calibration parameter subset is large, an automated process is suggested in the literature. Amongst the meta-heuristics used for cali-brating microsimulation models, the genetic algorithm (GA) has been widely used and simulated annealing (SA) has been used only once in the past. Thus, the question of which meta-heuristics is more suitable for the problem of calibration of the microsimulation model still remains open. Thus, the objective of this paper is to evaluate and compare the manual and three (the GA, SA, and tabu search (TS)) meta-heuristics for calibration of microsimulation models. This paper there-fore addresses the need to examine and identify the suitability of a meta-heuristics for calibrating microsimulation models. The results show that the meta-heuristics approach can be relied upon for calibrating simulation models very effectively, as it offers the benefit of automating the cumbersome calibrating process. All three meta-heuristics (the GA, SA, and TS) have the ability to find better calibrating parameters than the manually calibrated parameters. The number of better solutions, the best solution, and convergence to the best solution by TS is better than those by the GA and SA. Significant time can be saved by automating calibration of microsimulation models using meta-heuristics. The approach presented in this research can be used to help engineers and planners achieve better modeled results, as the calibration of microsimulation models is likely to become more complex in the future.},

Our model includes a hidden state variable that captures sudden regime shifts between traffic free flow, breakdown and recovery. We develop an efficient particle learning algorithm for real time on-line inference of states and parameters. This requires a two step approach, first, resampling the current particles, with a mixture predictive distribution and second, propagation of states using the conditional posterior distribution. Particle learning of parameters follows from updating recursions for conditional sufficient statistics. To illustrate our methodology, we analyze measurements of daily traffic flow from the Illinois interstate I-55 highway system. We demonstrate how our filter can be used to inference the change of traffic flow regime on a highway road segment based on a measurement from freeway single-loop detectors. Finally, we conclude with directions for future research.},

abstract = {Cycling is a healthy and sustainable mode of transportation. However, various problems, such as bicycle congestion, cycling safety and accessibility issues have been frequently observed in cities like Stockholm due to the rapidly increasing number of cyclists and insufficient bicycle facilities. In comparison to the overwhelming research effort on vehicle traffic and driver behavior, the studies on bicycle movement and cyclist behavior are however still far behind. This paper therefore aims at bridging the gap by presenting a new methodology for investigating and modeling microscopic cyclist behavior. In particular, the paper focuses on representing bicycle movements when they are not interacting with others. The cyclist acceleration behavior is modeled using naturalistic GPS (Global Positioning System) data collected by eleven recruited commuter cyclists from Stockholm. After processing the large amount data, cyclist trajectories are obtained and acceleration profiles are selected. A mathematical model is proposed and then identified by the acceleration datasets using the maximum likelihood estimation methodology. The cross validation approach is conducted to compare different forms of the mathematical model. While the model with more parameters shows superior performance, the simplified ones are still capable of capturing the trends in the acceleration profiles. Moreover, model extension is also discussed to show the possibility of examining the impact of cyclist specific factors, such as age, gender and agility, on cyclist behavior by using the proposed model. Although the cyclist population investigated in the current study is still limited, it is believed that this research provides a unique insight into this non-motorized transportation mode and could promote future bicycle related studies.},

abstract = {Motorcycle injuries are a major public health burden in many developing countries. The objective of this study was to analyze the dynamics of observed motorcycle helmet usage in Nairobi, Kenya. Factors considered were grouped into categories comprising number of riders, time, day, weather condition, and passenger characteristics. A mixed binary logit analysis was done using 1134 and 2262 observations of helmet usage for driver and passenger, respectively. Driver helmet use depended on total number of riders, age, gender and luggage. As the number of riders increased, the probability of wearing a helmet reduced. Drivers carrying children or women were more likely to wear a helmet. Those that carried a luggage were less likely to wear a helmet. Passenger helmet usage depended on the number of riders, gender, day and weather conditions. As the number of riders increased, the probability of a passenger wearing a helmet reduced. Female passengers were less likely to put on helmets than their male counterparts. Children were less likely to wear a helmet on average, with some variation across the population. Finally, driver helmet usage had varying effects on passenger helmet usage. An expanded knowledge of parameters affecting helmet usage can aid in the development of targeted education and enforcement programs. Such efforts can reduce injuries and deaths from motorcycle crashes. Reducing the occurrence and severity of injuries will reduce costs associated with motorcycle crashes and foster positive economic impacts in Nairobi and potentially throughout sub-Saharan Africa.},

abstract = {Transportation managers are grappling with the challenge of implementing performance management systems for all modes of transportation, including bicycling. Comprehensive measures of the magnitude of bicycling for states, regions, or municipalities do not exist. Development of performance measures for bicycling is especially challenging because bicycle traffic historically has not been monitored and, except for the journey-to-work question asked by the U.S. Bureau of the Census, surveys about bicycling have not been administered consistently over time. This paper presents two sketch plan methods for estimating the number of bicycle trips and miles traveled in the state of Minnesota. One approach involves use of results from a decennial travel behavior inventory administered by the Metropolitan Council to adjust and extrapolate estimates from the Census journey-to-work question statewide. This approach indicates Minnesotans take between 85 and 96 million bicycle trips annually. This estimate is likely low because it does not include all recreational trips taken on weekends. The miles traveled measure estimated with this approach (between 165 and 198 million miles) also is believed to be low. The second approach involves extrapolation from a randomized population survey administered annually by the Minnesota Department of Transportation. This approach indicates Minnesotans take approximately 75.2 million bicycle trips annually. The miles traveled estimate based on this approach is 139 million miles. Both approaches have limitations but can be replicated over time to provide information about trends. Additional research and experimentation is needed to develop valid, reliable measures of the magnitude of bicycling, especially at the state level.},

abstract = {Given that existing literature does not explicitly take exchange rate volatility into account in an international maritime freight model, this paper attempts to examine the short- and long-run impacts of real income, bilateral exchange rate, and exchange rate volatility on Australia's maritime export volume to its major Asian trading partners (China, Japan, Republic of Korea, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia). Using quarterly data for the period of 2000:Q1-2013:Q2, we include two measures of real exchange rate volatility (GARCH(1,1) and mean-adjusted relative change measures) for comparison purposes. The results show that real income is a crucial determinant of maritime export volume in both the short- and long-run, implying that Australia's maritime exports are predominantly driven by the economic growth in its major Asian trading partners. This paper finds evidence that exchange rate volatility has a significant long-run effect in the majority of cases, suggesting that exchange rate volatility appears to be an important factor affecting maritime export volume. The effects of exchange rate volatility are found to vary across country-pairs, and hence confirming the importance of using disaggregate data to uncover the differential effects on maritime exports by country. This study also reveals that the two measures of exchange rate volatility can produce different effects and thereby, it is important to select an appropriate measure of exchange rate volatility.},

The model has been specifically designed so that it will be easy for local planners, carshare staff, and community organization members to use. The recommended data sources are free and easily available in most communities. Further, working with the model requires only moderate skill using ESRI's ArcGIS software or an equivalent product. The paper describes the development of the tool, including the specific socio-demographic and urban form variables chosen. To help users operate the CSM, the paper also recommends appropriate data sources and describes the three steps needed to operate the tool.

abstract = {The aim of this research is to identify on one hand and quantify on the other, the elements which influence trip satisfaction of people travelling by public transport and/or private car. The data used in this research come from a revealed preference survey designed for global use and conducted in 2014, with most responses coming from Lisbon, Portugal and Thessaloniki, Greece. These data include sociodemographic characteristics, public transport preferences, and trip characteristics obtained from trip diaries. A generalized logistic regression model was developed aiming at assessing average trip satisfaction for all transit alternatives and private car. In this model, satisfaction is expressed as a probability of satisfaction in 100 Bernoulli trials, creating a final satisfaction rating. The results indicate that individual trip specific attributes such as crowdedness and traffic are more important than network characteristics and performance. Attributes fixed for a specific trip, such as access time and parking costs, or having small variability, like waiting time for subway, are found to be completely insignificant towards satisfaction. The results also suggest that attributes affecting service reliability and comfort are the ones users value higher with respect to satisfaction. A conclusion one might draw from the results is that the characteristics of a transit system or road network do not affect trip satisfaction. These elements could play a more important role in the mode choice process, but the attributes which may vary from trip to trip are the ones that seem to affect trip satisfaction.},

The proposed model also accounts for inertia effect, effects of socio-economic variables and heteroskedasticity in the joint RP-SP context. SP scale parameter was parameterized as a function of personal attributes to account for correlations between repeated SP choices. Proposed empirical models investigate commuting mode choice behaviour by using data collected in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). The results of empirical models show that capturing endogeneity between SP choice tasks and corresponding elicited confidence ratings improves the efficiency of parameter estimates. It is also found that including inertia effect and socio-economic variables improves model's goodness-of-fit values. However, no evidence is found on the role of endogeneity between SP choices and corresponding elicited confidence ratings on model's goodness-of-fit measures.},

The analysis focused on a residential neighborhood in London that was being extensively redeveloped. Anticipated effects of the interventions are assessed in regard to distance, delay, risk, and environmental quality of walking trips from residences to public transport nodes. The study also addressed methodological issues by modeling the off-street space available to pedestrians and considering alternative hypotheses for pedestrian route choice. Results show that, in this neighborhood, changes to the street layout always reduced delay and improved the pedestrian environment, although the changes might have increased trip distances and...},

abstract = {The coexistence of high-speed rail (HSR) and airline in a busy transportation corridor generates competition between the two transportation modes. An unfair competition between HSR and airline not only reduces both revenues, but also triggers a series of social problems. Based on generalized costs, this paper proposes combining an improved gray prediction model, modified gravity model, and Logit model to predict the average passenger flow, induced passenger flow, and transfer passenger flow. According to the predicted results, we establish a game model that considers different stages of the HSR development. For demonstrative purposes, the approach is applied to an empirical study in China, that is, the competition between Beijing-Shenyang HSR and airline. Malignant fare war will make both parties lose out. Either mode that improves service quality will generate more revenue. If both parties improve the level of service, all incomes of the HSR, airline, and community increase. Results show the HSR contribution is greater than the airline in the case study.},

abstract = {Urban metro systems are subject to recurring service disruption for various reasons, such as mechanical or electrical failure, adverse weather, or other accidents. In recent years, studies on metro networks have attracted increasing attention because the consequence of operational accidents is barely affordable. This study proposes to measure the metro network vulnerability from the perspective of line operation by taking the Shanghai metro network as a case study. As opposed to previous studies that focused largely on disruption of important nodes or links, this study investigates the disruption from the line operation perspective. Betweenness centrality (BC) and passenger betweenness centrality (PBC), number of missed trips, weighted average path length, and weighted global efficiency were analyzed considering relative disruption probability of each line. Passenger flow distribution and re-distribution were simulated for different disruption scenarios based on all-or-nothing assignment rule. The results indicate that the metro lines carrying a large number of passengers generally have a significant impact on the network vulnerability. The lines with circular topological form also have a significant influence on passenger flow re-distribution in case of a disruption. The results of this study provide suggestions on metro system administration for potential improvement of the performance of operation, and passengers may meanwhile have an improved alternate plan for their commute trip when a disruption occurs.},

The proposed methodology reverses the pairwise coupling and employs the Bradley-Terry formulation for estimating pairwise comparison models. This methodology was implemented through relevant models in Agent-Based Dynamic Activity Planning and Scheduling (ADAPTS) and aims for solving pairwise activity conflicts. At one step of the framework, given the default algorithm, agents have to make a choice between in-home and out-of-home activities. At this time step, the reverse pairwise comparison models are called to investigate the agents' resources and conditions for making the most probable decision about which activity to engage in. This work was conducted in conjunction with an earlier effort to incorporate in-home activities into ADAPTS, and the models proposed provide a behavioral decision-making process for this purpose.},

abstract = {Trucks typically use the same infrastructure as cars do, and this imposes negative effects on the overall traffic operations. To mitigate such effects as well as their negative environmental impacts, platooning of trucks can be considered a potential solution. For platooning a set of trucks, two main strategies are typically assumed: a catch-up strategy (i.e., the upstream trucks accelerate to catch up with the leading trucks) and a slow-down strategy (i.e., the leading trucks decelerate so that the upstream trucks can catch up and platoon with them). The behavior of trucks when platooning with either of these two strategies was analyzed. Then a hybrid platooning strategy was developed that combined the two approaches in an optimal manner. The performance of the hybrid strategy was further analyzed and compared with that of the individual approaches. Results show that the hybrid strategy is the most general scheme capable of forming a platoon in various cases. Moreover, it is the fastest strategy considering the required time for platooning. In regard to performance, the hybrid strategy is capable of forming a platoon using the maximum platooning speeds of trucks. These characteristics make it a suitable strategy for large-scale deployment in truck platooning.},

abstract = {As important alternatives to driving, bicycling and transit provide a variety of public and private benefits, such as improved public health, reduced emissions, and increased community livability. American planners and policy makers have increasingly promoting biking and transit as viable means of transportation. Integration of bicycling and transit has been acknowledged as a strategy to increase the mode share of bicycling and the efficiency of public transit by solving the First- and Last- Mile problem. However, the economic outcomes of promoting the integration of bicycling and transit are still poorly understood. This study aims to reveal residents' preferences on bicycle-transit integration by analyzing the single-family and condominium property sale transactions during 2010-2012 in Austin, Texas (USA). The Cliff-Ord spatial hedonic modeling approach, which is also known as the general spatial model (or SAC), controls for the spatial dependent effects in the sale price and the error terms simultaneously. In order to quantify neighborhood bikeability and transit accessibility, the authors use Bike Score and Transit Score as publicly available indices. They have assessed how residents' willingness to pay (WTP) for bikeability and transit accessibility depend on various sociodemographic and built-environment factors, and whether the WTP is influenced by the bicycle-transit integration. The results from this research show that bicycle-transit integration has the potential to generate positive synergistic effects on property values. Policy makers should target bicycle infrastructure investments in areas that are already well served by transit. Conversely, investments in transit infrastructure would yield greater economic benefits if they are made in neighborhoods that are already bikeable.},

abstract = {In travel demand modelling literature, minor attention has been given to modelling and specifically micro-simulating the in-home activities. One reason could be associated with the fact that in-home activities do not explicitly involve trips. Besides, data limitation could be another reason since most of the travel surveys are based on the household travel diary approach and do not encompass in-home activity information. Nonetheless, incorporating people's in-home activities into the activity-based travel demand frameworks and perceiving the associations between the activities people perform in home and out of home could enhance the activity generation, planning, and scheduling procedures. In an effort to analyze such associations, this study uses a sequential conditional probability approach for modelling activity type and duration decisions of in-home activities in conjunction with out-of-home ones. The paper first proposes an algorithm to incorporate in-home activities within the Agent-based Activity Planning and Travel Scheduling (ADAPTS) framework. Then, models regarding generation and planning of in-home activities are presented and described accordingly. The new framework is capable of modelling and simulating in-home activities alongside and in conjunction with out-of-home activities with a special focus on a large set of in-home activity types.},

abstract = {Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users, and pedestrian safety has earned a major research concern in recent years. Because of the collision data quality and quantity issues, surrogate safety measures are developed and the conflict analysis become the primary method to study the safety between pedestrians and vehicles. However, conflict situation between pedestrians and vehicles are more complex due to various interactions, and it's difficult to use solo or combined indicators and their fixed thresholds to interpret the safety of all aspects of interactions. This paper presents a new method to analyze pedestrian-vehicle conflicts with classification of different interaction patterns. Based on trajectory data collected at intersections, interaction patterns are identified by analyzing speed profiles and continuous conflicting indictor (TTC (Time to Collision), GT (Gap Time)) profiles in an aggregate way. Model estimation results prove that interaction pattern and location has significant impacts on severity level. In accordance with interaction patterns, dynamic indicators and thresholds for estimating event severity are proposed. Compared with traditional methods, which use fixed indicators and thresholds for all interactions without thinking interaction patterns, the newly method revealed a higher accuracy on estimation all severity levels.},

abstract = {Supplier evaluation and selection problem is among the most important logistics decisions that have been addressed extensively in supply chain management. This logistics decision is also important in freight transportation since it identifies trade relationships between business establishments and determine commodity flows between production and consumption points. The commodity flows are then used as input to freight transportation models to determine freight movements and their characteristics including mode choice and shipment size. Various approaches have been proposed to explore this problem in previous studies. Traditionally, potential suppliers are evaluated and selected using only price/cost as the influential criteria and the state-of-practice methods. This paper introduces a hybrid agent-based computational economics and optimization approach for supplier selection. The proposed model combines agent-based multi-criteria supplier evaluation approach with a multi-objective optimization model to capture both behavioral and economical aspects of supplier selection process. The model uses a system of ordered response models to determine importance weights of different criteria in supplier evaluation from buyers' point of view. The estimated weights are then used to calculate a utility for each potential supplier in the market and rank them. The calculated utilities enter a mathematical programming model in which best suppliers are selected by maximizing the total accrued utility by all buyers and minimizing total shipping costs while considering the supply capacity of supplier to ensure the market clearing mechanism.

abstract = {Composite accessibility analyses provide significant insight for land-use and transportation policies that promote sustainable transportation planning. This paper contributes to the limited research on multi- modal, multi-destination accessibility measures by employing a unique, Composite Network-distance- based Accessibility Measure (CNAM). The CNAM estimates accessibility at a finer-grained disaggregate level, which can be scaled to any aggregate spatial unit of interest. This study defines a five-interval Likert accessibility scale informed by planning, engineering, and public health professionals. Experts suggest that accessibility thresholds vary for different service destinations and travel modes. They selected shorter distance ranges to represent very high accessibility thresholds for food stores and child day cares and larger distances to define very high accessibility to government services and recreation destinations. The CNAM signifies the density of service destinations that are proximate to a parcel. A higher CNAM reveals greater proximity to a higher number of destinations. The results of the CNAM highlight that there are considerable spatial differences in accessibility across the Halifax region, particularly within the Regional Centre. Halifax is most accessible to eating places, followed by offices and clinics of physicians. The scores for walking and biking were highest for the Regional Centre and poor for the Rural Commutershed. The parcel-level estimation yields finer-grained results, but accessibility at the dissemination area (DA) level was also estimated, revealing that the majority of DAs have a relatively low accessibility to service destinations, particularly by active travel modes.},

abstract = {More and more people visit mass events, while also the number of mass events is increasing. Mass events in urban space have only limited infrastructure available, and are thus more subject to risk of crowd disaster. This paper proposes a crowd management framework for mitigating risks of crowd disasters at mass events in the public urban space. The framework consists of six steps, with the final aim to quantify the consequences of measures near bottlenecks. The most important elements of the framework are the layered crowd disaster model (showing how the traffic situation might develop into a crowd disaster), and the scenario measure charts (showing which preventive measures may be applied in which situation). The risk of crowd disasters is calculated as the product of the level-of-service and the duration of this level-of-service. The advice provided in this evaluation tool incorporates stakeholders' tolerance towards risks, using a multi criteria analysis in which the weights for the various assessment criteria can be adapted to the situation at hand. The output of the framework is suitable for tactical decision-making upon risk mitigation strategies for mass events in the public urban space.},

Popular microscopic models such as car-following and lane-changing models are not suitable for the analysis of such traffic conditions unless some modifications accounting for heterogeneity are included. However, there seems to be an underlying mechanism behind the fluctuations that needs to be investigated thoroughly. The Hurst exponent concept of chaos theory was used to identify the hidden trends in vehicular movement. Real-life trajectory data from an urban arterial in Chennai, India, were analyzed and then compared with a homogeneous data set in the United States. The Hurst exponent for mixed traffic was found to be significantly less than that for the homogeneous data; this finding indicated the strong trends of lateral movement and speed in homogeneous traffic. The variation of Hurst exponents with vehicle type and average lateral positions was explored in mixed traffic. Results from this study will help modelers propose better microscopic simulation models accounting for the fluctuations in speed and lateral movement.},

abstract = {Air pollution in metropolitan areas is mainly caused by traffic emissions. This study presents the development of a model chain consisting of a transportation model, an emissions model, and atmospheric dispersion model, applied to dynamically evaluate individuals' exposure to air pollution by intersecting daily trajectories of individuals and hourly spatial variations of air pollution across the study domain. This dynamic approach is implemented in Montreal, Canada to highlight the advantages of the method for exposure analysis. The results for nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a marker of traffic related air pollution, reveal significant differences when relying on spatially and temporally resolved concentrations combined with individuals' daily trajectories compared to a long-term average NO2 concentration at the home location. We observe that NO2 exposures based on trips and activity locations visited throughout the day were often more elevated than daily NO2 concentrations at the home location. The percentage of all individuals with a lower 24-hour daily average at home compared to their 24-hour mobility exposure is 89.6{\%}, of which 31{\%} of individuals increase their exposure by more than 10{\%} by leaving the home. On average, individuals increased their exposure by 23-44{\%} while commuting and conducting activities out of home (compared to the daily concentration at home), regardless of air quality at their home location. We conclude that our proposed dynamic modelling approach significantly improves the results of traditional methods that rely on a long-term average concentration at the home location and we shed light on the importance of using individual daily trajectories to understand exposure.},

abstract = {Auckland, New Zealand's public transport network is undergoing extensive redesign to provide commuters with an integrated system. This study determined existing users' route choice between the new routes with transfers and the older direct route without transfer. The case studies involved four recently upgraded interchanges in Auckland. The results demonstrate the strong influence travel time savings has on traveler's preference to ride the new routes. Three groups of public transport users who are willing to use routes with transfers are identified, Time-driven travelers, Comfort-driven travelers and Complacent travelers. Time-driven travelers recognize travel time to be the most important factor influencing their route choice and most likely to adopt the new integrated system. Comfort-driven travelers are the type of users who understood the trade-offs between each travel option, and required a larger time saving to encourage them to make transfers. The third type, Complacent travelers, are users who are less compelled to investigate their route choices, or do not consider travel time to be an important factor in their decision. Such users cannot be easily encouraged to adopt the new routes which provide time savings. The study adopted the psychological model Just Noticeable Difference. Results showed that values for travel time savings ranging from 0.20 to 0.40 is perceived by users as an improvement in the service and thereby are more likely to attract users to the new integrated network.},

In this paper, a framework is proposed for identifying the spatial congested partitions in a dynamic urban road network and for monitoring the temporal changes in their locations and structure. To that end, a given road network is transformed into a suitable graph representation, an initial partitioning based on a spectral clustering approach is performed, and then the partitions continue to be updated incrementally on the basis of the newly obtained traffic data at each new time point. The congested partitions are then identified on the basis of traffic measures (e.g., volume and green time utilization) available from the traffic signal control system. Experiments with the proposed method are conducted with real historical traffic data collected from the 493 signalized traffic sites in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, with a total of 1,444 road segments and 581 intersection points.

abstract = {Nationwide, there is a growing realization that there are valuable benefits to using the existing roadway facilities to their full potential rather than expanding capacity in a traditional way. Currently, state DOTs are looking for cost-effective transportation solutions to mitigate the growing congestion and increasing funding gaps. Innovative road space management strategies like narrowing of multiple lanes (three or more) and shoulder width to add a lane enhances the utilization while eliminating the costs associated with constructing new lanes. Although this strategy (among many) generally leads to better mobility, identifying optimal corridors is a challenge and may affect the benefits. Further, there is a likelihood that added capacity may provide localized benefits, at the expense of system level performance measures (travel time and crashes) because of relocation of traffic operational bottlenecks. This paper develops a novel transportation programming and investment decision method to identify optimal corridors for adding capacity in the network by leveraging lane widths. The methodology explicitly takes into consideration the system level benefits and safety. The programming compares two conflicting objectives of system travel time and safety benefits to find an optimal solution.},

abstract = {The number of cars searching for parking, also known as “cruising,” is a risk factor linked to increased pollution and congestion and decreased road safety. Although the detrimental effects of cruising are known, the actual amount of cruising is unknown. A novel video data set of naturalistic driving is shown to provide reliable estimates of cruising behavior. The distribution of search start times, search distances, and search times is characterized. Cruising behavior variation between 109 different drivers is also reported on in the study, located in southeast Michigan. It was found that 30{\%} of the drivers generated more than 70{\%} of the meters cruised. This finding suggests that the search strategies of a few drivers disproportionately affect the many. These results facilitate the estimation of the number of vehicles searching for parking and the amount of pollution generated by cruising drivers. Researchers may also use these results to develop more realistic models of parking search and parking interventions. The results, based on video data, have implications for settings in which video data are not available. The results from this study can serve as input to a model that classifies GPS traces as cruising or not cruising.},

Then, time series data of lane changing vehicles from both normal and dangerous driving data sets are analyzed and compared to extract decisive features that are more likely to appear in dangerous lane change processes. A feature detection module is proposed specifically considering decisive features correlated to dangerous lane change. Furthermore, the feature detection module is integrated into the HMM classifier to enhance classification ability. The proposed classifier is verified with a separate test data set, and shows satisfactory results in reducing false negative rate of misclassification.},

This paper describes a new methodology to estimate unit-train crude oil transportation risk by the frequency of location-specific rail defect inspection. The risk model was used to develop a Pareto optimiza- tion model that determines the frequency of segment-specific rail defect inspection to reduce the total-route risk in a cost-effective manner. A numerical case study was developed to illustrate the application of the risk analysis and optimization models.

abstract = {Over the last two decades, cycling has seen a rise in popularity in North American cities, which are continuously expanding their bicycle networks. While studies highlight that a good network should provide direct bicycle routes for cyclists to reach their desired destination, most network assessments simply measure the length of bicycle facilities in a region. Building on a set of complementary indicators to account for directness of bicycle facilities, this study assesses the performance of the bicycle network in Montreal, Canada. The study uses data from two large-scale online cyclist surveys (2,917 and 2,644 respondents) conducted in Montreal in 2009 and 2013. The 2009 survey provides data on actual trips made by cyclists and is used to assess cyclists' behavior in Montreal. The 2013 survey provides actual cyclists' home and work/school locations. Routes between actual home and work locations are generated using the bicycle facilities and street network based on three different route preferences. For each route generated, the diversion and proportion of route on bicycle facilities are calculated to assess directness of bicycle facilities. Based on these two indicators and on Montreal cyclists' behaviour, network connectivity is then measured. The Montreal network shows a low level of connectivity of less than 51{\%} on every level of preference. Trade-offs between diversion and proportion of route on bicycle facilities are highlighted spatially together with areas with low levels of connectivities. Finally, using circuity measures (the ratio between network and Euclidian distances), results show the extent to which the existing transportation network favors driving with a circuity of 1.22 compared to 1.33 for trips made by bicycle. Using a simple set of performance measures reflecting cyclists' trade-offs, this study highlights the need to incorporate bicycle network connectivity objectives into transportation plans to improve the efficiency of the network and hence promote bicycle use. Cities wishing to promote cycling can use the set of metrics developed in this study to evaluate their current or projected bicycle network.},

abstract = { Abstract—In this paper, the influence of traffic ethics on driving violations is investigated and modeled from sociological perspective. The driving violation of male and female drivers is separately analyzed in this research. The models are developed based on the survey results of 215 drivers who received driving tickets in Tehran. In this paper, the traffic ethics is considered as a criterion of drivers' obligation to obey traffic rules. To evaluate the drivers' obligation, some social and cultural variables are applied. The social variables which are used in this research include: social anomies, social obligations and social capital and the cultural variables are: influence of media, social-cultural status of people and cultural patterns. The results show that the variables investigated in this paper, as representatives of the human related factors, are able to predict 39{\%} and 60{\%} of driving violation in male and female drivers, respectively. According to the results, the social-cultural status has an important influence on citizen's traffic ethnics of male and female drivers. However, considerable difference is observed between the influencing factors on the driving violation of these two categories. For female drivers, the driving violation mainly depends on level of education and media. Meanwhile the influencing variables in male drivers driving violation include: personal obligations, personal confidence, social confidence and belief in inefficiency of traffic rules.},

abstract = {As in-vehicle touchscreens become more common there is growing concern about their impact on driver safety. The objective for this research is to determine how best to design touchscreens to minimize the physical and mental demands of their use. Key size is a critical factor in touchscreen design. When assessing the effects of key size it is essential to test in a context as similar as possible to the one where the device will be used because context may influence physical and cognitive demands. In this study, the effects of key size were assessed in a driving simulator, a complete car body surrounded by 300-degree wrap-around viewing screens. Simulators permit drivers to be tested in challenging driving conditions without putting lives at risk. This simulator provided the sights, sounds and some of the sensations of driving, including engine vibration. The effects of key size and the context of use (touchscreen use while parked as compared to driving) were investigated. Performance was assessed (speed and accuracy of keypad use, hazard response times and steering variability while driving) as well as perceived workload. Results indicated that key size had different effects depending on context of use, a finding with ramifications for touchscreen design in vehicles. Although keypad performance increased significantly as key sizes increased from small to large, driving performance did not, with performance equivalent between small and large key sizes and the highest physical workload associated with mid-sized rather than small keys.},

To examine this issue, this study employs data of the Puget Sound Panel Survey, comprising a total of 7135 respondents. Through descriptive analyses and a random parameters panel effects regression model, we analyze changes in the time spent on shopping between two consecutive waves of the panel differentiating between employment status transitions, after controlling for a set of socio-demographic variables and day of the week. Results indicate that while activity-travel patterns in general and shopping duration in particular are relatively stable for the groups showing no transitions in employment status, the transition groups show evidence of a reorganization of their shopping activities across the week. In addition, results of the model indicate that the relationship between change in employment status and dynamics in shopping behavior is not symmetrical.},

abstract = {Bicycling has grown in popularity over the past decade, but the gap in rates of bicycling between men and women in the United States (US) persists. This paper uses regional travel behavior study data from the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metropolitan Region in 2000 and 2010 to measure and model the gender gap in bicycling over time. Findings from a series of statistical tests show that in aggregate, women bike less than men, and that growth in bicycling has been slower for women than for men over the past decade. However, stratifying the sample shows that women who live with at least one other adult bicyclist participate in bicycling at an equal rate as men. Similarly, frequency of bicycle trips among people who participate in bicycling differed by gender only slightly in 2000, and not at all in 2010. Binary logistic modeling results show that several factors, such as age and trip purpose, are associated with different bicycling outcomes for men and women, but some commonly hypothesized explanations, such as having children, were declining in effect or altogether insignificant. These findings and conclusions are important for practice and research because understanding the nuances of the gender gap, such as the apparent gap in participation but not in frequency or the contagion effect of living with a cyclist, is essential for targeting programs effectively. This paper also identifies several travel behavior data collection limitations that complicate studying the gender gap, and offers recommendations for further study.},

abstract = {Modeling queuing behavior is central to the analysis of transportation and other service systems. To date, several queuing models been developed, but analytical insights on their global properties are hard to obtain. This is because in most cases, queuing dynamics are formulated as differential or difference equations, with possible discontinuities in their solutions, making most conventional analytical tools inadequate. As a result, simulations are often used to study these models, and if not properly treated, negative flows could arise from the simulation near certain discontinuities. In this paper, we propose a continuous-time queuing model that captures generalized queuing dynamics, where bottleneck discharging capacity and demand can vary simultaneously. We provide insights on the global properties of this model, upon deriving its closed-form variational solutions. Rather than resorting to the usual Hamilton-Jacobi theory, our derivations are built on an intrinsic periodicity property of the general queuing dynamics combined with measure-theoretic analysis. This treatment allows us to obtain results with more complex boundary conditions and make further extensions. We demonstrate its applications and show its solution properties in queuing simulation and performance bounding. In particular, we provide graphical, iterative and linearized solution schemes, which are all devoid of the well-known negative flow issue associated with numerical solutions to the point queue model.},

A dependency graph is built from the past observed instances of the event and we use the graph to understand the causal effects of some events on others in the system. The dependency graph is also used to predict the attributes of future events and is shown to have a good prediction accuracy compared to the state of the art.},

This study assessed whether and to what extent this decline may (partially) be attributed to the latest trends in the digitalization of society, in particular the growing use of mobile Internet devices (smartphones and tablets) and online services such as social network sites, especially among young people. These technologies and services enable and encourage people to be connected anytime and anywhere and may thereby reduce (car) travel by partly replacing face-to-face contacts with friends and relatives. From a representative sample of Dutch respondents, the results were found to be inconsistent with this expectation and indicated that the use of the new technologies and services was associated with more (instead of fewer) social activities out of the home. However, among young adults, the use of social network sites was found to be associated with a more favorable attitude toward public transport. Overall, the results suggest that, among the Dutch, the latest trend in the digitalization of society does not play a major role in the downward trend in automobility.},

Smartphones are emerging as ideal tools for collecting detailed 3 individual travel information, which motivated us to develop a smartphone-based travel survey 4 system, Future Mobility Survey (FMS). Inferring people's stops and modes of transportation is a 5 critical and challenging problem in the FMS system, especially because time phased data collection 6 method has been used to reduce the battery usage. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm 7 for integrated stop and travel mode detection using parsimonious real world data collected from 8 smartphones through FMS. We use a two stage classification system to detect five modes of travel, 9 viz., stop, walk, train, car, and bus. To improve accuracy of the classification we derive features 10 from a fusion of data collected from GPS,GSM,Wi-Fi and Accelerometer sensors on-board the 11 smartphones. We also propose new features based on contextual information and user's historical 12 data. Experimental results show that the algorithm can effectively perform stop/mode detection, 13 and is robust against noisy/incomplete data from the smartphones.},

abstract = {Aircraft noise is a form of environmental noise pollution that is a cause for resident complaints, especially near larger airports. Noise monitoring is usually performed by placing single microphones at various locations in neighborhoods that are near airports. Single omnidirectional microphones, however, record every sound wave that is incident on the sensor. The sound amplitudes estimated by these single microphones include the contributions from environmental sources other than the aircraft, such as traffic noise, sirens, powered landscaping equipment, and barking dogs. Use of a phased array of microphones in combination with advanced beam-forming algorithms makes possible the selective monitoring of aircrafts' localized sound amplitudes and thereby more accurately identifies aircraft-specific sound levels while minimizing the contributions from other sound sources. This paper demonstrates the noise source localization abilities of the phased-array system for the application of aircraft environmental noise monitoring.},

abstract = {In this paper data from 230 households observed in ten different occasions (waves) from 1989 to 2002 in the Puget Sound region are used to explore relationships among number of cars owned, number of trips driving alone, and number of trips sharing cars with household members. Using a mixture latent class Markov model we identify four distinct groups that are a High Mobility group with more cars and car trips, an Average Mobility group with lower car ownership and trips driving alone, a third group with relatively high car ownership but few car sharing trips, and a fourth group of Low Mobility characterized by the low car ownership and trips. Households change behaviour adapting to internal and external changes to their environment but they also anticipate changes and go through a "preparation" stage (e.g., adding another car in their fleet in expectation of adding another employed person). Land use plays a somewhat secondary role. The analysis also reveals three classes (hidden Markov chains) of households underlying behavioural dynamics with increases in the low car ownership categories (zero and one car per household), decreases in the high car ownership (three cars and four or more cars per household) and stable behaviour in the two cars per household group. Household membership in these classes is significantly influenced by householder ratings to parking availability, schedule flexibility, bus transfers, and day-to-day costs of driving. The findings here show attitudes and land use enhance understanding of longitudinal heterogeneity.},

abstract = {Agencies often find it difficult to justify investments in active traffic management. Historically, it has been a challenge to obtain data that would help make the case for those investments. Although new data sources have emerged recently, there remains very little documentation of the potential long-term benefits from signal retiming using associated performance measures. This paper presents a use case for an active traffic management strategy on a signalized corridor over a 5-year period, during which traffic volumes increased by approximately 36{\%} and offset optimization was performed every 2 to 3 years. Despite the considerable volume growth, the number of vehicles arriving on green increased by more than 41{\%}, and the percentage of vehicles arriving on green increased by 10{\%}, a gain of 6 percentage points. Further-more, drivers experienced an average of 5{\%} reduction in travel time and travel time reliability costs after each optimization. The retiming resulted in a 5-year net present value of approximately {\$}3.7 million and a benefit–cost ratio of 52. Agencies can use these strategies to quantita-tively assess how traffic performance and signal timing degrade over time, in a manner similar to physical infrastructure assets. The results highlight the benefits and associated business case of adopting a long-term active traffic management strategy that is based on data-driven performance monitoring and decision making. Every year, agencies spend approximately {\$}1 billion on maintenance and upgrades related to traffic signals. Approximately half of this expenditure goes to maintenance and repair of physical infrastructure, and only 20{\%} is dedicated to retiming and optimization of progression (1). Many agencies are reluctant to dedicate a larger percentage of their budgets to routine retiming, partly because of considerable uncertainty about how traffic signal timing ages in response to changing volumes and travel patterns. As a result, agencies often retime corridors on fixed schedules or according to rule-of-thumb estimates instead of considering data-driven performance measures (2). Historically, studies examining longer-term microscopic trends in traffic performance have approached the topic from an external perspective, without active intervention on the systems in question. For instance, Day et al. compiled a statewide, multiyear ranking of signalized corridors using measures of travel time and travel time reliability (3). The extent to which specific timing plan modifica-tions affected these travel times was not extensively considered. Numerous other research programs have been established for the purpose of passively monitoring corridor travel time and travel time reliability (4–6). For studies that have considered active signal timing intervention over a number of years, the primary focus has been on fully automated solutions, such as adaptive traffic control. For example, Stevanovic et al. conducted a 10-year evaluation of the Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System in Utah; the researchers used microsimulation and found that data-driven timing strate-gies offered substantially improved performance over static timing plans (7). One notable study that estimated large-scale, long-term performance measures for traffic signal systems was performed by the Bavarian Road Administration in Germany. This research used anonymized GPS data to calculate measures of vehicle delay near established traffic signals. Although this study did consider changes in vehicle delay caused by signal timing, signal controller event data were not incorporated in the evaluation process (8). There exists a significant need for published data and results for specific signal timing improvements, assessed over a much longer period of time than traditional before–after analyses, which tend to focus on only a few weeks of data surrounding an intervention. This study aims to partially fill a gap in the literature on long-term active traffic management by examining a moderately congested signalized corridor over 5 years and looking at how periodic retim-ing driven by high-resolution event data can mitigate degradation in travel times and signal timing performance. The results can help agencies to better understand signal timing as asset management and provide evidence that active long-term monitoring and planning for the maintenance of signal assets that are not hardware (such as signal timing plans) can generate significant returns.},

abstract = {Travel plans can be required for new residential developments as part of the land use planning and approvals process. Their aim is to manage car use among residents by providing a package of tailored initiatives and facilities that support the use of more sustainable forms of transport. However, there is a limited understanding of the extent to which they have influenced travel behaviour or simply attracted residents who were already making travel choices to reduce car use; the latter effect is commonly referred to as residential self-selection. In this study, a survey of residents in Melbourne was conducted at developments with and without travel plans. Propensity Score Matching (PSM) – based on a set of attitudinal, preference and demographic variables – was then used to explore how residential self-selection could be analysed in the context of travel plans. Results suggest that residents living at developments with travel plans have lower car ownership and higher levels of walking and cycling compared to residents living at developments without travel plans. PSM was deemed to be a suitable method for analysing residential self-selection effects, yet a sufficient sample size is required in order to appropriately quantify these effects.},

abstract = {In this paper, a control algorithm is presented that integrates connected vehicles in the feedback loop of traffic signal control, which results in highly flexible, signal-group based signalization and speed adaptation of vehicles. The method is based on Model Predictive Control and incorporates a mutual optimization of both traffic signal timings and vehicle trajectories. In light of emerging communication technology, connected vehicles are expected to deliver more detailed data about the current traffic flow compared to stationary detection. This data can be used to influence the signal timing. By capitalizing on the possibility of providing information to connected vehicles, a second means of influence is enabled: Information about future signal timings can be provided to the drivers and hence, further reductions in the number of stops and an increase of traffic flow at the beginning of the green time can be achieved. The complexity increases when both ways of influence are combined, which is often omitted in previous research. This combination is addressed in this paper by introducing an optimized signal control with an integrated speed advisory system. The presented algorithm features an innovative functionality to adjust the predictability of signal timings to account for the reliability of speed advisory messages. A simulation study is carried out as a proof of concept and to evaluate the trade-off between optimality and predictability of the traffic signal control algorithm.},

abstract = {The Provision of Roadway lighting follows a warrant system established four decades ago. The current state of the practice finds many agencies in North America and the rest of the world simplifying the grid system to contain fewer elements already available to them and custom- tailor scores based on expert criteria. This tendency suggests the need for a method to conduct a local calibration of the warrant's grid supported by the local crash-history. This paper presents a method to calibrate the scores of the warrant system utilizing only those elements available and significant from a statistical perspective in explaining less frequent and severe night-time collisions. A case study of the province of Quebec in Canada illustrates the application of the method. As explained later, only few factors survive the analysis and were found to be significant in explaining less frequent and severe accidents. Values of such factors were normalized and re-scaled to obtain the scores for grid G1 (highways). The number of lanes, width of the shoulder, density of intersections, traffic volume, and night-to-day crash ratios were calibrated to obtain two grids, one for severity and one for frequency. A modified grid without night-to-day ratios is proposed for new highways. The method to locally calibrate over statistical analyses proposes a strong foundation for lighting decisions better suited from a liability perspective.},

During pav- ing operations, workers are located within a protected work zone. Some are situated nearby or engaged with the equipment, while others may be a long distance from the equipment and on foot. The study reported here was conducted to investigate how temporary advisory speed signs located periodically in a work zone affected vehicle speeds within high way paving project work zones. The study used an experimental approach that involved a multilane paving project on a high-speed roadway in Oregon. The posted regulatory speed on the roadway was 65 mph, which was reduced temporarily to 50 mph in the work zone. During construc- tion, 35 mph advisory signs were posted along with other traffic control devices (e.g., “Speed 50” signs with radar speed display and portable changeable message signs on rollers), and the impact they had on vehicle speed and speed variability was evaluated. The research findings indi- cated that use of the 35 mph signs led to lower vehicle speeds within the work zone. The reduction in speed was greater by passenger cars than by trucks. The use of 35 mph advisory signs in work zones is recom- mended to help reduce vehicle speeds through the entire work zone and to minimize safety risks, especially to workers on foot and situated away from major equipment},

abstract = {1 Transit agencies are rapidly deploying new fare payment systems, and many of these systems 2 rely on passenger-provided technologies, such as mobile phones. Mobile ticketing systems 3 typically utilize tickets that are purchased and validated on smartphones; however, not all transit 4 riders have smartphones or other electronic payment media needed to make a mobile payment. 5 Subsequently, transit agencies want to understand rider adoption of smartphones, credit/debit 6 cards, and other electronic payment media when planning for deployment of mobile ticketing 7 systems. Therefore, the objective of this research is to assess access to mobile payments across 8 different socioeconomic groups. The methodology is a case study of Nassau Inter-County 9 Express (NICE) bus system, where two passenger surveys about smartphone, credit card, and 10 potential mobile ticketing adoption were conducted. Binary logit was used to analyze 11 smartphone, credit/debit card and potential mobile ticketing adoption across different 12 socioeconomic groups using the survey data. The model results suggest that younger riders are 13 more likely to have smartphones, while older, more affluent riders are more likely to have 14 credit/debit cards. Based on a stated survey question about potential mobile ticketing use, early 15 adopters of mobile payments are likely to be younger riders. These findings may help inform 16 other transit agencies on the suitability of mobile ticketing in their markets and influence 17 stakeholders prepared to make large capital investments in new fare collection systems. 18 Sion, Brakewood and Alvarado 3 INTRODUCTION 1 In the last few years, there has been a push toward utilizing new fare payment technologies in the 2 transit industry, particularly mobile ticketing systems in which riders pay their transit fare 3 directly on their smartphones using a credit card, debit card, or other electronic payment (1, 2). 4 Since 2012, numerous transit providers in the United States have deployed mobile ticketing 5 systems, and many other agencies are in various stages of planning and procurement. As shown 6 in Figure 1, the New York Waterway first launched a mobile ticketing application in early 2012, 7 and this was followed by Boston's commuter rail later that year (1). In 2013, New Jersey Transit, 8 DART in Dallas, NCTD in San Diego, and TriMet in Portland deployed mobile ticketing 9 applications (1, 3). The next year (2014) included mobile ticketing launches at CapMetro in 10 Austin, NICTD in Indiana, NICE Bus in Nassau County, NY, and the Comet Bus in Columbia, 11 South Carolina (1, 4). Since the beginning of 2015, numerous additional transit providers (VRE, 12 MUNI, CTA and NORTA) have already launched mobile ticketing (1, 5). 13 This movement toward mobile ticketing is occurring for many reasons. Mobile payments 14 linked to credit/debit cards can reduce the number of cash transactions at ticket windows and 15 onboard trains or buses, which can potentially reduce operational costs and simplify the fare 16 collection process for transit providers. They also provide transit agencies with valuable planning 17 data that are currently not available in cash-based systems (i.e., disaggregate origin and 18 destination information). Furthermore, mobile payments can improve the rider experience by 19 replacing prepayment at ticket windows or vending machines, which typically require some 20 amount of waiting in line, thereby saving passengers travel time. In addition, smartphone 21 applications can provide transit customers with a comprehensive payment and information 22 platform, including account management capabilities, transit service alerts, and real-time vehicle 23 location/arrival information. 24 Many of the aforementioned benefits of mobile ticketing rely on the fact that transit riders 25 utilize their personal devices (namely smartphones) to purchase tickets. However, public 26 transportation providers have diverse rider constituencies, and subsequently, not all transit riders 27 have smartphones. Therefore, it is critical for transit agencies who are planning or deploying 28 mobile ticketing systems to understand passenger adoption of smartphones and the other 29 electronic payment media (such as credit/debit cards) that are needed to make purchase mobile 30 tickets for reasons of equity. 31 32 33 34 FIGURE 1 Timeline of Mobile Ticketing Launch in American Transit Systems. 35},

abstract = {This work investigated the effect of personal, household, and neighborhood characteristics on variations in activity space through the use of a shortest network path buffer approach. A special focus was on the comparison of older adults (age 65 years and older, sample size of 591) with working-age adults (age 25 to 59 years, sample size of 1,806) to understand better the changes in activity space with age. Because activity space was a limited measure of social activity dependent on assumptions, this work investigated relative differences in the geographic reach of activity space and factors that increased or decreased that reach. The data were from the 2006 Household Activity Survey conducted in the Puget Sound, Washington, region. Descriptive data analysis showed that older adults on average had a substantially smaller (23{\%}) geographic reach of activity space compared with working-age adults and that older adults who did not drive had the smallest geographic reach of activity space, only 16.7{\%} of the overall average. The regression model results showed that low household income, often correlated with reduced mobility, was associated with a reduced geographic reach of activity space for older adults. Activity frequency significantly increased the geographic reach of activity space, and the effect was larger for older adults. The geographic reach of activity space was associated with neighborhood characteristics. Living in suburban and exurban neighborhoods led to a larger geographic reach of activity space for both older and working-age adults, while living in mixed use neighborhoods led to a smaller geographic reach of activity space.},

The proposed model extends the functionality of a scheduled-based transit assignment in two ways: (1) It generates intermodal route choice sets combining transit and non-transit trip legs. This functionality enables an accessibility analysis to identify od-pairs benefiting from VSS. (2) It distributes a given travel demand on the route choice set considering capacity constraints of VSS. This functionality can be applied for an impact analysis of a proposed VSS.},

These issues were explored through interviews with thirteen employed adults in the San Francisco Bay Area who could feasibly commute by bicycle but were not currently doing so. Among the key findings, many respondents: 1. Perceive bicycle commuters as young, energetic and physically fit, and equipped with special clothes or cycling gear. 2. Worried about how to maintain a professional work image if they cycled to work. 3. Felt that they couldn't commute by bicycle because they needed to have a personal car available for such purposes as work duties or errands, chauffeuring kids or a pet, or carrying bulky items to and from work. 4. Worried about the safety of cycling, with a particular focus on driver inattention and fears about cycling in the dark. (Desire for more bicycling infrastructure was less prominent in the safety discussions.) 5. Believed that having lots of co-workers who commute by bicycle could provide a much needed boost of encouragement to biking to work, whether through positive motivation and camaraderie or peer-pressure and friendly competition. 6. Saw cycling positively, believing that bicycle commuting would benefit them as a good way to fit in exercise, decompress after a day of work, or gain a new perspective on the “beautiful” Bay Area.},

abstract = {Perimeter control policies for urban regions with Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) modeling have been presented in previous works. The control policies might meter the number of transferring vehicles from one region to another, resulting in queueing vehicles at regional boundaries. Concentrated vehicles at boundaries might affect the existence of well-defined MFDs. Most previous works neglect the effect of the boundary concentrated vehicles on the traffic flow dynamics, and do not explicitly consider their effect on the perimeter control policy. This paper introduces a new MFD-based model for two-region networks with aggregate boundary queue dynamics. The dynamic flow characteristics for the two urban regions are modeled by the MFD functions, while aggregate boundary queue dynamics for both regions are modeled by input-output balance differential equations. Maximum lengths are imposed on the aggregate boundary queues, that aim at maintaining the existence of well-defined MFDs and their dynamics. Based on the developed model, the optimal control policy to maximize the total network throughput is found. Analytical solutions for the optimal perimeter control problem, with constrained perimeter control inputs and constrained lengths of aggregate boundary queues, are derived. The optimal synthesis for principal cases are found and verified by numerical tests. The numerical results demonstrate the effect of aggregate boundary queues on the optimal perimeter control policy.},

abstract = {A number of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) were used with an advanced driving simulator to assess its influence on driving behavior. Three types of ITS interventions namely, Video in-vehicle (ITS1), Audio in-vehicle (ITS2), and On-road flashing marker (ITS3) were tested. Then, the results from the driving simulator were used as inputs for a developed model using a traffic micro- simulation (Vissim 5.4) in order to assess the safety interventions. Using a driving simulator, 58 participants were required to drive through a number of active and passive crossings with and without an ITS device and in the presence or absence of an approaching train. The effect of driver behavior changing in terms of speed and compliance rate was greater at passive crossings than at active crossings. The difference in speed of drivers approaching ITS devices was very small which indicates that ITS helps drivers encounter the crossings in a safer way. Since the current traffic simulation was not able to replicate a dynamic speed change or a probability of stopping that varies based on different ITS safety devices, some modifications of the current traffic simulation were conducted. The results showed that exposure to ITS devices at active crossings did not influence the drivers' behavior significantly according to the traffic performance indicators used, such as delay time, number of stops, speed, and stopped delay. On the other hand, the results of traffic simulation for passive crossings, where low traffic volumes and low train headway normally occur, showed that ITS devices improved overall traffic performance.

Through a revealed preference approach, this study surveyed users from all over the country collecting demographic information, details about their electric bike, usage patterns, and a one-day travel diary. Results found that electric bicycles were primarily owned by those above age 55, with recreation, shopping, and commuting as common uses. Regarding modal switch, 40{\%} of electric bicycle trips would have used an automobile if an electric bicycle were not available. This research suggests that as people age and experience increasing difficulty riding a traditional bicycle, the electric bicycle offers an opportunity for them to stay on the bike paths instead of switching to automobiles.},

abstract = {Climate change enters significantly into and is shown to be a direct determinant of residence and job location change decisions. Understanding of how people's residence and job location change choice behavior is affected and thus responds to the impacts of climate change is essential for transportation planners and adaptation decision makers. As an addition to the current literature, the main purposes of this paper are to investigate people's residence and job location change choice behavior affected by factors at origin and look into the behavioral differences between coastal and inland people under flooding and cyclone scenarios in Bangladesh. Questionnaire data were surveyed in 14 coastal and inland cities of Bangladesh with an orthogonal design of three flooding/cyclone scenarios. The multinomial Logit model and cross-nested Logit model are proposed to address the above purposes. Results of this study indicate that flooding/cyclone factors and income, land owned, and number of family members significantly affects people's location change choice. In addition, coastal people are also significantly affected by previous experience factors. Furthermore, road connection plays an important role when people choose to change residence locations in coastal areas. It is also found that if there are changes in flooding impacts, the inland people will first consider to change their job locations, while the coastal people would consider both job and residence location changes. Results of this work provide policy suggestions on transportation infrastructure investment, shelter planning and construction, and population migration under flood and cyclone impacts as a result of climate change.},

Disruptions of distributed facilities often exhibit complex spatial correlations, and thus it is difficult to describe them with succinct mathematical models. This paper proposes a new methodological framework for analyzing and modeling facility disruptions with general correlations. This framework first proposes pairwise transformations that unify three probabilistic representations (i.e., based on conditional, marginal, and scenario probabilities) of generally correlated disruption profile among multiple distributed facilities. Then facilities with any of these disruption profile representations can be augmented into an equivalent network structure consisting of additional supporting stations that experience only independent failures. This decomposition scheme largely reduces the complexity associated with system evaluation and optimization. We prove analytical properties of the transformations and the decomposition scheme, and illustrate the proposed methodological framework using a set of numerical case studies and sensitivity analyses. Managerial insights are also drawn.},

They derive the theoretical equilibrium for this decision-making game and test the validity of the proposed mechanism through monetized laboratory experiments. They use methods from experimental economics to investigate the behavioral assumptions within such an incentive-based mechanism. They find that although a pure Nash Equilibrium does not provide a good fit, Quantal Response Equilibrium performs reasonably well. In addition, the authors conclude that it is critical to control for risk attitudes of the subjects when evaluating lottery based incentive mechanisms. This study, which relies on the gamification of travel behavior, finds that the proposed mechanism can provide a sustainable shift in users choices.},

abstract = {Revenue management is widely practiced in the airline industry, yet rarely applied to high speed rail (HSR). In the history of the rail and HSR industry, passenger ticket assignment across all stations has been often employed to regulate the supply of seats and demand from rail passengers with profitability objectives. This paper proposes a systematic revenue management approach for HSR passenger ticket assignment with dynamic adjustments. A major advantage of the proposed approach is the integration of dynamic ticket assignment and rigorous short-term demand forecasting, which can effectively avoid the situation wherein passenger tickets are not sufficient at some stations while certain seats remain empty on the train. This novel methodology has three main components. First, it develops a short-term passenger flow forecasting method to forecast dynamic travel demand. Second, it builds a passenger ticket assignment model to allocate passenger tickets during pre-sale periods. Finally, it incorporates a dynamic ticket adjustment mechanism to adjust previous passenger ticket assignments. For demonstration purposes, the proposed approach is applied to the HSR system in China. Results show that revenue increases by 13.5{\%} when the existing ticket assignment method is improved by this enhanced revenue management method.},

abstract = {Two new numerical methods, a semi-analytical method and an exact method, are proposed in this paper for solving the step-tolled user equilibrium problem for the bottleneck model with general user heterogeneity. The semi-analytical method transforms the step-tolled user equilibrium problem into a static traffic assignment problem with side constraints, which is formulated and solved as a variational inequality problem (VIP). Existence and uniqueness results are obtained by examining the properties of the VIP. The exact method, on the other hand, locates the equilibrium solution by enumerating all possible combinations of user departure orders. To improve the computational efficiency of the exact method, a simple heuristic is developed to reduce the number of solutions to be enumerated. Examples of up to 1000 classes are tested. The results confirm that ignoring user heterogeneity may lead to sub-optimal design of step tolls. In all experiments, the semi-analytical method is found to be more efficient than the heuristic version of the exact method by an order of magnitude, albeit they consistently produce nearly identical equilibrium solutions.},

The estimates reveal significant returns to scale in maintenance for both per car and per car kilometre. The econometric analysis also provides statistically significant cost elasticities for wages and staff hours, suggesting substitution effects between factors. Staff outsourcing is found to significantly decrease costs, whereas higher levels of fleet availability at the peak and rolling stock failures increase it. The effect of the age of rolling stock and the network is negligible on rolling stock maintenance costs; however, the analysis reveals a downward trend in rolling stock costs among the metros in the CoMET and Nova consortia.},

abstract = {This study focuses on drivers' allocation of visual attention while interacting with a visual-manual in-vehicle Human-Machine Interface (HMI) to understand how drivers manage their attention. Drivers' glance behaviors while completing radio-tuning tasks were manually coded and analyzed. The relationship between the duration of glances to the radio and the frequency of glances was tested and compared across younger (20-29) and older (60-69) drivers. Results showed that older drivers engaged in more glances, longer single glances, and have longer total glance times. Older drivers also showed higher variability in glance durations than younger drivers. Significant negative correlations between glance duration and glance frequency were also observed with both older and younger drivers. This was consistent with – and supported – two types of glance strategies that were hypothesized to be used for completion of HMI tasks. Additional correlation tests revealed that self-reported frequent users of in-vehicle systems completed the HMI tasks with shorter and fewer glances. These results indicate that there are distinct glance strategies employed in the completion of visual-manual HMI tasks – by younger and older drivers. Further, older drivers required more time to visually extract information in order to complete tasks regardless of the strategy used. Finally, a discussion of how different glance strategies may affect safety and risk – a topic that can be explored in future research – is provided.},

abstract = {The vision of intelligent vehicles traveling in road networks has prompted numerous concepts to control future traffic flow, one of which is the in-vehicle actuation of traffic control signals. The key of this concept is using intelligent vehicles as actuators for traffic control systems, replacing the traditional road-side systems. Under this concept, the authors design and test a control system that connects a traffic controller with in-vehicle controllers with Vehicle-to-Infrastructure communications. The link-level traffic controller regulates traffic speeds through variable speed limits (VSL) gantries to resolve stop-and-go waves, while intelligent vehicles control accelerations through vehicle propulsion and brake systems to optimize their local situations. It is assumed that each intelligent vehicle receives VSL commands from the traffic controller and uses them as variable parameters for the local vehicle controller. Feasibility and effectiveness of the connected control paradigm are tested in simulation on a two-lane freeway stretch with intelligent vehicles randomly distributed among human-driven vehicles. Simulation shows that the connected VSL and vehicle control system improves traffic efficiency and sustainability, i.e. total time spent in the network and average fuel consumption rate are reduced compared to (uncontrolled and controlled) scenarios with 100{\%} human drivers and to uncontrolled scenarios with the same intelligent vehicle penetration rates},

abstract = {Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and local air pollutants as well as external costs of traffic congestion are attracting increasing attention from the public. To promote the use of active transport in urban areas, several cities have been introducing the bike-sharing system to encourage citizens to travel by bike instead of the carbon-intensive modes of transport. Beijing municipal government initiated the public bike-share programme in Beijing in June 2012. The system developed quickly. By end of 2013, public bike-sharing system in Beijing is composed of 777 stations with 25,000 bicycles. Based on the annual system operation data in 2013 and the observed user interview survey, this paper evaluated the performance of Beijing bike-sharing system, and its benefits on carbon emission reductions. Public bike-sharing in Beijing serves the purpose of connecting to public transport system for the first or last mile. But the overall daily turnover of sharing bicycle fleet is 1.15, which is much low compared to other cities. Annual direct carbon emission reductions in 2013 generated by this system are around 404 metric tons, which are minor co-benefits of bike-sharing system.},

The approach called Compressive Origin-Destination Estimation (CODE) is inspired by Compressive Sensing (CS) techniques. Even though the estimation problem is underdetermined, CODE recovers the unknown variables exactly when the number of alternative paths for each OD pair is small. Noiseless, noisy, and weighted versions of CODE are illustrated for synthetic networks, and with real data for a small region in East Providence. CODE's versatility is suggested by its use to estimate the number of vehicles and the Vehicle-Miles Traveled (VMT) using link counts.},

abstract = {This paper develops a novel linear programming formulation for autonomous intersection control (LPAIC) accounting for traffic dynamics within a connected vehicle environment. Firstly, a lane based bi-level optimization model is introduced to propagate traffic flows in the network, accounting for dynamic departure time, dynamic route choice, and autonomous intersection control in the context of system optimum network model. Then the bi-level optimization model is transformed to the linear programming formulation by relaxing the nonlinear constraints with a set of linear inequalities. One special feature of the LPAIC formulation is that the entries of the constraint matrix has only {\{}-1,. 0,. 1{\}} values. Moreover, it is proved that the constraint matrix is totally unimodular, the optimal solution exists and contains only integer values. It is also shown that the traffic flows from different lanes pass through the conflict points of the intersection safely and there are no holding flows in the solution. Three numerical case studies are conducted to demonstrate the properties and effectiveness of the LPAIC formulation to solve autonomous intersection control.},

abstract = {Apart from work hour commitments, rush-hour commuting decisions are dependent on household activities and responsibilities. It can also be gender specific when gender differences in performing household activities prevail. To that end, this study investigates gender difference in rush-hour commuting in relation to daily household activities, using the data of TBO 2006 (Dutch Time Use Survey) and MON 2006 (National Travel Survey of the Netherlands). Two separate analyses for the morning rush-hours and the afternoon rush-hours commuting are performed. Household activities such as childcare, child chauffeuring, household maintenance and shopping, and working at home are considered. Additionally, the authors  include personal attitudes towards sharing these activities between partners. The authors find that females in the Netherlands are more likely to commute during morning rush-hours, but less likely to do so during afternoon rush-hours. In terms of household activities, childcare and child chauffeuring before/after commute lead to higher probability of morning rush-hour commute. In the afternoon, only the childcare activity has a significant effect. As expected, working at home has a negative effect on rush-hour commuting for both analyses. The authors find that limited value is attached to personal attitude consideration regarding sharing of household activities and responsibilities.},

The knowledge of its parameters is of paramount im- portance to understand traffic properties and its characteristics. It is also critical to calibrate the elements of dynamic traffic flow simulation models and reproduce traffic states on road networks. The paper is concerned with developing a method for estimating fundamental diagram parameters that combines loop data and probe data. Loop data are considered as boundary conditions of the problem. Travel times between (any points located between) the loop can be estimated based on the fundamentals of the kinematic wave the- ory. The optimal fundamental diagram parameters are computed so that the discrepancy between estimated travel times and actual travel times from probes is minimal.The method is validated on simulated error-free data. The results demonstrate the accuracy of themethod when applied on an error-free dataset. The method is then implemented using realisticdata, i.e. aggregated and noised beforehand. It demonstrates its robustness and the results are en-couraging for developing a algorithm that calibrates online and automatically fundamental diagramparameters.},

abstract = {This study develops a dynamic model for the commute mode choice behavior of individuals over their life-time using retrospective survey data. The study conceptualizes that individuals reassess their choice of commute mode when they relocate to a new residential location. Following reappraisal, they either continue using the same mode, which is considered mode loyalty, or make a transition to a new mode, which is considered mode transition in this study. A panel-based random-parameters logit model is developed to accommodate the repeated choices of the individuals during their life-time. One of the key features of this study is that it takes a life-oriented approach that accommodates the effects of life-cycle events, life-oriented socio-demographic transitions, and accessibility transitions in modeling repeated mode choice decisions. The model results suggest that the high income group tends to be car loyal. No car ownership over the life-time and the addition of a job increase the probability of transit loyalty. Individuals with no children in the household and residing in high walk/bike usage area have a higher probability to be loyal to active transportation. A decrease in household income and tenure transition from owned to rental is likely to trigger a transition from car to transit. On the other hand, the presence of children and the addition of a car increase transition propensity from transit to car. Additionally, an increase in household income and new household formation trigger a transition from walk/bike to car. The model results suggest that the use of life-oriented characteristics to explain longer-term commute mode loyalty and transition behavior provides important behavioral insights in understanding the dynamics of individuals' travel behavior over their life-time.},

The MAS-based analysis uses modeling and simulation to examine the characteristics of the observed system – autonomous agents interacting with one another – under different scenarios, considering bus capacity and frequency of service for existing and projected public transport (PT) demand. A simulation model of a bus route is developed, calibrated and validated. Several results are attained, such as when the PT passenger load is not close to bus capacity, this load has no effect on average passenger waiting time at bus stops. The model proposed can be useful to practitioners as a tool to model the interaction between buses and other agents.},

HUD housing is, by definition, affordable from the standpoint of housing costs due to limits on the amounts renters are required to pay. However, there are no such limitations on transportation costs, and common sense suggests that renters in remote locations may be forced to pay more than 15{\%} of income, a nominal affordability standard, for transportation costs. Using household travel models estimated with data from 15 diverse regions around the United States, we estimated and summed automobile capital costs, automobile operating costs, and transit fare costs for households at 8,857 HUD rental assistance properties. The mean percentage of income expended on transportation is 15{\%} for households at the high end of the eligible income scale.

abstract = {This study demonstrates a method for identifying statewide transit needs and gaps, prioritizing investment needs for statewide transit planning, collecting better data for demand-response transit level of service, estimating costs of needed improvements, and projecting future service needs based on projected population growth. The method was applied to the state of North Dakota and is transferable to any state, especially those with a large number of rural demand-response transit agencies that are not located within metropolitan planning areas. Currently, data in the National Transit Database is insufficient for analyzing level of service for rural transit agencies, as it lacks information on geographic service area and span of service. A survey conducted for this study filled this data need by collecting detailed data regarding each agency's service area and the number of days and hours of service being provided. These data, when combined with population and demographic data are useful for identifying gaps in transit service and prioritizing needed service improvements. The study also calculated per capita trips, per capita vehicle miles, and per capita vehicle hours provided in regions across the state. These performance measures were compared to benchmark values to identify areas where the transit system may not be meeting the needs of the service area population, understanding that needs are not identical in all areas. The study estimated necessary increases in service and funding to meet target levels in different scenarios. Population projections were also considered for estimating needed increases in service and funding.},

abstract = {The route choices of cyclists in an urban environment were related to nine variables relating to street design and dynamics–tree shade; car parking; traffic speed; traffic volume; mixed or segregated traffic; dedicated bicycle facility; number of car lanes; number of restaurants; number of retail stores. Cycling itineraries were collected using a tracker equipped with a geographical positioning system and responses from an intercept survey (n=212). Distance-equivalent routes were obtained using a geographical information system. All street segments used by cyclists were investigated to obtain original relevant traffic and physical data. Street segments were coded for the above variables and entered into a multiple, linear regression model, where cyclist volume from the revealed preference survey was the dependent variable. Tree shade, traffic speed, mixed traffic and the presence of restaurants were found to be significant or highly significant, while car parking and traffic volume were nearly significant. The model explains 21{\%} of the variance in route choice in this sample of four different kinds of cycling trips in Shenzhen, China. Examination of the distance-equivalent alternative routes revealed that the number of turns was significantly higher, while tree shade and mixed traffic were non-significant in choice.},

abstract = {Fast and Intertwined Regular (FAIR) highway had been proposed as a road pricing concept that distributes credits to the low-income commuters. The paper models the FAIR highway operations considering the heterogeneity of commuters and lane-by-lane variations. A bilevel programming framework is established to concurrently model the FAIR operator's pricing strategies (at the upper level) and commuters' mode and lane choices (at the lower level). Various operation policy scenarios are designed and tested to evaluate the FAIR highway performance on an experimental highway corridor. A series of sensitivity analyses are conducted with respect to the key conditional factors such as travel demand levels and lane-by-lane variations. Numerical results show that compared to the do-nothing case the FAIR scheme can significantly alleviate the traffic congestion and promote the use of high-occupancy vehicles. The FAIR highway, however, has two potential disadvantages: (i) the toll level is increased when subsidizing the low-income commuters and (ii) the divergence of lane utilization is aggravated on the FAIR highways compared to the do-nothing case. The study provides insights for the decision-makers and practitioners on the potential outcomes of a FAIR highway application.},

abstract = {This study focused on short-term dynamics of activity-travel behavior as a response to travel time increases. It is assumed that short-term changes are triggered by stress, which is defined as the deviation between an individual's aspirations and his or her daily experiences. When stress exceeds a tolerance threshold, habitual behavior is dissociated, and various adaptation strategies emerge. A stated-adaptation experiment was designed to trace behavioral change. The analysis results of the empirical data corresponding to travel time scenarios are presented. Specifically, a random coefficient logit (binary) model that focused on the decision of activating a short-term change was estimated. Next, a random parameters (mixed) logit model is presented; it indicates which specific activity attribute is adjusted once a short-term adaptation is chosen. Then one random coefficient logit (binary) model indicates whether an exploitation of the existing choice set or an exploration effort occurs once an activity attribute is chosen to be adapted. These analyses led to interesting results about the inertia characterizing people's behavior and their unwillingness to deviate from their habitual state. In addition, it is seen that richer choice sets lead to more short-term changes and specifically to more exploitation efforts. Moreover, heterogeneity plays a significant role in all these models. Finally, the effect of stress as well as of various sociodemographic and travel-specific variables (activity type, destination location, transport mode, and day of the week) is revealed and can be taken into account in the design of spatial and transportation policies.},

abstract = {Predicting the binding mode of flexible polypeptides to proteins is an important task that falls outside the domain of applicability of most small molecule and protein−protein docking tools. Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

abstract = {While bus systems are traditionally designed with fixed routes, this work presents an alternative flexible-route bus network, in which buses travel within predetermined areas in response to trip demand in order to provide door-to-door service. The main advantage of this system is that passenger access time to and from transit stops is removed. This paper considers a heterogeneous passenger demand distribution and designs a hybrid system that includes both hub-and-spoke and grid network features. While designing the optimal route layout and service operation, continuum approximation is used to reduce the computation burden and formulate the problem in terms of a few decision variables. Considering different demand levels and several patterns of spatially heterogeneous demand distributions, the authors compare the performance of flexible transit and fixed-route transit in terms of combined agency and user costs, and the maximum vehicle occupancy. It is found that demand heterogeneity gives rise to a larger cost-saving opportunity for flexible-route transit than the fixed-route transit. As a result, the flexible-route transit is superior under a wider range of demand levels under heterogeneous demand than under homogeneous demand.},

This study summarizes the process and findings of a pilot project evaluating the use of dynamic ridesharing to verify occupancy for toll road discounts in Central Texas. Participants' registration rates are evaluated in terms of association with ridesharing program efforts and incentives. Researchers classified a wide range of recruitment activities, and evaluated the daily relationship with the number of people actually registering for this dynamic ridesharing program. Regression analysis suggests that mass media interaction, such as paid advertisements and news coverage, offer the greatest immediate potential for encouraging ridesharing registration. Advancing technology offers a platform for increasing transportation system efficiency, but substantial recruitment efforts are necessary to create a critical mass of dynamic ridesharing drivers and riders.},

abstract = {? 2016 Elsevier Ltd.The limited drive range (The maximum distance that an EV can travel.) of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is one of the major challenges that EV manufacturers are attempting to overcome. To this end, a simple, accurate, and efficient energy consumption model is needed to develop real-time eco-driving and eco-routing systems that can enhance the energy efficiency of EVs and thus extend their travel range. Although numerous publications have focused on the modeling of EV energy consumption levels, these studies are limited to measuring energy consumption of an EV's control algorithm, macro-project evaluations, or simplified well-to-wheels analyses. Consequently, this paper addresses this need by developing a simple EV energy model that computes an EV's instantaneous energy consumption using second-by-second vehicle speed, acceleration and roadway grade data as input variables. In doing so, the model estimates the instantaneous braking energy regeneration. The proposed model can be easily implemented in the following applications: in-vehicle, Smartphone eco-driving, eco-routing and transportation simulation software to quantify the network-wide energy consumption levels for a fleet of EVs. One of the main advantages of EVs is their ability to recover energy while braking using a regenerative braking system. State-of-the-art vehicle energy consumption models consider an average constant regenerative braking energy efficiency or regenerative braking factors that are mainly dependent on the vehicle's average speed. In an attempt to enhance EV energy consumption models, the proposed model computes the regenerative braking efficiency using the instantaneous vehicle operational variables. The proposed model accurately estimates the energy consumption, producing an average error of 5.9{\%} relative to empirical data. The results also demonstrate that EVs can recover a higher amount of energy in an urban driving environment when compared to high speed highway driving using the proposed model. Moreover, the study also compared different electric vehicles and quantified the impact of auxiliary systems, including the air conditioning and heating systems, on vehicle energy consumption levels using the proposed energy model. The study demonstrated that the use of the heating and air conditioning system could significantly reduce the EV efficiency and travel range.},

The upper-level problem minimized a cost function that$\backslash$nrepresented the perspectives of the passengers, the operators, and the$\backslash$nlocal authority, and the lower-level problem was the transit assignment$\backslash$nproblem.

abstract = {A latent segmentation-based logit (LSL) modeling framework investigated the travel tool ownership of the elderly population in the greater Toronto area, Ontario, Canada. This study utilized data from the 2006 Transportation Tomorrow Survey conducted in the greater Toronto area. The study developed five mutually exclusive travel tool ownership combinations or bundles for older adults. One of the unique features of this study is the development of an LSL model to capture unobserved heterogeneity in the older adults' travel tool ownership decisions. The LSL model captures unobserved heterogeneity by allocating individuals to discrete latent segments through a latent segment allocation model. The model results suggest that the LSL model is estimated for two latent segments in which less frequent trip makers are more likely to belong to Segment 1 and more frequent trip makers have a higher probability of belonging to Segment 2. Moreover, the model results suggest that considerable heterogeneity exists among the older adults in the two segments. For instance, older adults residing in a neighborhood with a higher percentage of owned dwellings prefer to own multiple travel tools in one latent segment and reveal an opposite relationship in another segment. Moreover, older adults living closer to regional business centers have a higher probability of owning a monthly transit pass in one segment and exhibit an opposite relationship in another segment. This diversity in travel behavior should be addressed within the transportation and land use policies to ensure an effective and equitable transportation system for older adults.},

This paper describes a comprehensive study that was undertaken to understand the impacts of property accessibility, neighbor-hood built environment, and other contributing factors on single-unit and multiunit residential property values. The study used a sample of more than 4,500 single-unit and 2,300 multiunit residential properties collected in more than 1,800 neighborhoods of Adelaide, Australia. Hedonic house price models were applied to study the similarities and dissimilarities of the impacts of types of property accessibility (property accessibility to retail locations and to social and recreational locations by walking, pub-lic transit, and automobile), neighborhood built environment (land use mix, residential density, and intersection density), and other contributing factors (physical attributes of the property, social and economic charac-teristics of the neighborhood, and public school district quality) on single-unit and multiunit residential property values. The model results suggest that planners should consider land use mix, new social and recreational locations, intersection density, and public transit locations in designing and implementing neighborhood development strategies. The results also indicate that investors should consider the following in developing prop-erty investment strategies: the property's physical condition, its prox-imity to retail, social, and recreational locations, school district quality, neighborhood development intensity, and residents' preferred residential property features. Further, the impacts of various contributing factors on single-unit and multiunit residential property values can be used to aid planners in neighborhood design and to assist investors in making more informed residential property investment decisions.},

This problem was formulated as an integer programming, two-objective optimization problem. A decomposition method that integrated the route's headway, vehicle trip offset time, and vehicle type selection and assignment was developed to synchronize timetables of PT routes. The goal was to develop a maximally synchronized timetable that used a mixed-size fleet for a given PT network. The two-objective function was to minimize both the expected total passenger waiting time and the observed passenger load discrepancy at a desired occupancy level on vehicles at the maximum load points. The elaborated methodology was applied to a numerical PT network example and to a real-life PT network in Auckland, New Zealand. The results show that, compared with those of the current timetables, the total passenger waiting time and vehicle load discrepancy can be reduced by 68{\%} to 72{\%} and by 59{\%} to 65{\%}, respectively, by adopting the new timetabling strategy that synchronizes multiple types of vehicles.},

This study explores jointly the choice and the extent of active travel of youth while considering walking and cycling as distinct travel forms, controlling for objective urban form measures, and taking both a “street view” looking at the immediate home surroundings and a “bird's eye view” looking at the neighborhood environments. A Heckman selection model represents the distance covered while cycling (walking) given the mode choice being bicycle (walk) for a representative sample of 10-15 year-old children from the Capital Region of Denmark extracted from the Danish National Travel Survey. Results illustrate the necessity of different urban environments for walking and cycling, as the former relates to “street view” urban form measures and the latter also to “bird's eye view” ones. Results also show the need for measures aiming at traffic reduction and speed calming, diminution of heavy vehicle movements in local streets, lessening of cyclist-motorist conflicts at intersections, and decrease of cycling crash frequency and severity. Last, results indicate that campaigns should address perceptions and social norms in neighborhoods located outside the city or populated with higher percentages of immigrants in order to motivate active travel of children.},

Because self-driving vehicles were not yet on the market, a car technology acceptance model was applied to understand adoption and use. Researchers implemented a two-stage data collection effort. An online survey was conducted with 556 residents of metropolitan Austin, Texas, to determine intent to use. Four intent-to-use categories were determined: extremely unlikely, 18 {\%}; somewhat unlikely, 32 {\%}; somewhat likely, 36{\%}; and extremely likely, 14{\%}. Of those who indicated intent to use, qualitative interviews were conducted to ascertain the impact on their travel behavior. Most respondents would rather own a self-driving vehicle than use one such as Car2Go or Uber taxi. In addition, respondents reported that using a self-driving vehicle would make no change in where people would choose to live in Austin (80{\%}), no change to their annual vehicle miles of travel (66{\%}), and no change to the number of vehicles owned (55{\%}).},

Much of the literature has focused on locating the closest facility, assuming that access to one food store is sufficient. However, given evidence that access to multiple healthy food stores can improve diets, this paper examines how closest facility measures differ from cumulative opportunity accessibility measures across space in a medium-sized U.S. city. Differences in access between automobile and transit riders, using realistic travel time costs, are also considered. Results demonstrate that the two types of accessibility measures produce different accessibility geographies and that there are disparities in access for those dependent on transit. These findings indicate that researchers should carefully consider whether access to one supermarket opportunity is enough, and pay special attention to the mode residents rely upon to access food.},

abstract = {There is a considerable body of studies on the relationship between daily transport activities and CO2 emissions. However, how these emissions vary in different weather conditions within and between the seasons of the year is largely unknown. Because individual activity???travel patterns are not static but vary in different weather conditions, it is immensely important to understand how CO2 emissions vary due to the change of weather. Using Swedish National Travel Survey data, with emission factors calculated through the European emission factor model ARTEMIS, this study is a first attempt to derive the amount of CO2 emission changes subject to the change of weather conditions. A series of econometric models was used to model travel behaviour variables that are crucial for influencing individual CO2 emissions. The marginal effects of weather variables on travel behaviour variables were derived. The results show an increase of individual CO2 emissions in a warmer climate and in more extreme temperature conditions, whereas increasing precipitation amounts and snow depths show limited effects on individual CO2 emissions. It is worth noting that the change in CO2 emissions in the scenario of a warmer climate and a more extreme temperature tends to be greater than the sum of changes in CO2 emissions in each individual scenario. Given that a warmer climate and more extreme weather could co-occur more frequently in the future, this result suggests even greater individual CO2 emissions than expected in such a future climate.},

abstract = {This paper examines the characteristics and practices of ridesharing users in France. Ridesharing is defined as the grouping, into a private vehicle, of travelers who have a common origin and/or destination and share trip costs. Since it first appeared in France in 1958, it has evolved rapidly and attracted an increasing number of users. This growth has been largely facilitated by advanced technology. At present, there are an estimated three million carpooling users in France, but their profile and motivations are not well understood. In May 2013, the authors conducted a member survey of BlaBlaCar (n=618), the largest online and app-based carpooling service in France to analyze the socio-demographic characteristics and usage patterns of the respondents. The respondents tend to be younger and more educated than the national population in France, although their level of income is roughly similar to that of the general population. The survey results identify correlations between sociodemographic characteristics and usage elements, such as trip purpose and role as a driver or rider. Notably, users with a lower income level are more inclined to be passengers, while higher income users employ carpooling mainly as drivers. This finding indicates some equity balancing effects, which may be unique to this shared mobility mode. In addition, an ordinal regression model was developed to determine which respondent characteristics are most highly correlated with frequency of BlaBlaCar use. The results suggest that students and individuals that use the service for work trips employ it more frequently.},

abstract = {This report summarizes the results of year four of a national random-digit-dial public opinion poll asking 1,501 respondents if they would support various tax options for raising federal transportation revenues, with a special focus on understanding support for increasing revenues for public transit. Eleven specific tax options tested were variations on raising the federal gas tax rate, creating a new mileage tax, and creating a new federal sales tax. Other questions probed various perceptions related to public transit, including knowledge and opinions about federal taxes to support transit. In addition, the survey collected data on standard sociodemographic factors, travel behavior (public transit usage, annual miles driven, and vehicle fuel efficiency), and attitudinal data about how respondents view the quality of their local transportation system and their priorities for government spending on transportation in their state. All of this information is used to assess support levels for the tax options among different population subgroups. The survey results show that a majority of Americans would support higher taxes for transportation—under certain conditions. For example, a gas tax increase of 10¢ per gallon to improve road maintenance was supported by 67 percent of respondents, whereas support levels dropped to just 23 percent if the revenues were to be used more generally to maintain and improve the transportation system. For tax options where the revenues were to be spent for undefined transportation purposes, support levels varied considerably by what kind of tax would be imposed, with a sales tax much more popular than either a gas tax increase or a new mileage tax. With respect to public transit, the survey results show that most people want good public transit service in their state. In addition, two-thirds of respondents support spending gas tax revenues on transit. However, questions exploring different methods to raise new revenues found relatively low levels of support for raising gas tax or transit fare rates. Also, not all respondents were well informed about how transit is funded, with only about half knowing that fares do not cover the full cost of transit.},

abstract = {Recent proposals for expanded intercity passenger rail service in the United States have included plans for incremental improvements to existing Amtrak service. Improvements to existing services aim to accommodate faster and more frequent passenger train operation, generally on track owned and operated by freight railways. Various projects and approaches can be considered when the running time of passenger trains is being decreased on a particular corridor. Rais- ing the maximum operating speed can yield different benefits on dif- ferent sections of the route, and conditions on adjacent sections can interact. For instance, the marginal travel time benefit of improving segments of a line from a maximum speed of 79 to 110 mph is less than the benefit of other improvements to eliminate segments cur- rently restricted to lower speeds. Therefore, to maximize the potential of limited resources, project investments must be selected carefully to improve performance in a cost-effective manner. This paper pre- sents a methodology for optimally selecting projects or establishing program budgets to reduce running time on a passenger rail corri- dor with consideration of capital, maintenance, and operating costs. The proposed project selection model is formulated with genetic algorithms. In the model, a route is divided into sections that can be independently upgraded, and the objective function is formulated as minimization of running time along the route. This model can aid in quickly and efficiently developing a strategic plan for improving running time on passenger rail corridors.},

abstract = {Commuting is a major component in the creation of traffic and travel problems. Thus, more attention should be given to its practice. Private car (PC) transport, the dominant mode of commuting in most of the world's major cities, creates traffic-related social problems such as traffic congestion, traffic fatalities and injuries, and adverse environmental impacts. This study proposes a novel commuting travel mode—a customized bus (CB) transit system that provides advanced, personalized, and flexible demand-interactive minibus service using Internet, telephone, and smartphone apps. The aim was to assess and compare the performance of CB with PC and with conventional public transport (PT) systems. A methodological analysis framework was constructed to quantify operational performance measures that enable the comparison of the different travel modes. This analysis framework was then applied to two cities—Auckland, New Zealand, and Paris, France—to assess the overall performance metrics of PC, PT, and CB, such as travel costs, travel time, and fuel consumption. This comparison sheds light on the differences between the travel modes, their viability, and their competitiveness. The results of the case study show that PC is the fastest commuting mode, the travel costs incurred by it are twice as much as for PT and CB and involve higher fuel consumption. CB also can provide a useful alternative for commuter trips in Auckland and Paris. For increased commuter trips, CB proved to be more efficient than the PC and PT modes. Finally, the CB system tends to be more profitable in Auckland than in Paris.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2016, National Research Council. All rights reserved.A network sensor location problem (NSLP) model is proposed to determine the optimal heterogeneous sensor deployment strategy in terms of the number of links (counting) and node (video or image) sensors and their installation locations for dynamic origin-destination (O-D) demand estimates under a budget constraint. The proposed NSLP model also captures the impact of the time duration for which traffic data measurements are available on the optimal sensor deployment strategy; this topic had not been addressed in previous studies. A sequential sensor location algorithm that avoids matrix inversions was proposed to solve the NSLP model under the assumption of multivariate normal distribution for the prior dynamic O-D demand estimates. A network from a part of Chennai, India, was used to illustrate the performance of the proposed NSLP model and solution algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm can identify the sensor locations on the basis of the amount of information provided and can determine the number of each sensor type to maximize the accuracy of O-D demand estimation. The results also illustrate that the proposed NSLP model can capture the time-varying characteristics of the amount of information provided by each sensor location. The proposed method can be used to analyze the impacts of various sensor types, their number, location, and the time duration for which traffic data measurements are available for estimation of dynamic O-D demand under limited resources.},

abstract = {Priced Managed Lanes (MLs) have been increasingly advocated as one of the effective ways to mitigating congestion in recent years. This study explores a new and innovative pricing strategy for MLs—Travel Time Insurance (TTI). The proposed TTI provides an additional option to paying drivers that insures their travel time by issuing a refund to the toll cost if they do not reach their destination within specified travel times due to accidents or other unforeseen circumstances. Perceived benefits of TTI include raised public acceptance towards priced MLs, utilization increase of high occupancy vehicle/high occupancy toll (HOV/HOT) lanes, overall congestion mitigation, and additional funding for relevant transportation agencies. To gauge travelers' interests of TTI and to analyze its possible impacts, a stated preference (SP) survey was performed. An exploratory analysis of the 2200 responses from the survey revealed negative interest towards HOT and TTI option in accordance with common wisdom and previous studies. However, it is found that travelers are less negative about TTI than HOT alone, supporting the idea that TTI could make HOT facilities more appealing.},

abstract = {To retain and attract new riders, transit agencies are frequently in search for ways to improve system reliability. Transit agencies typically operate several routes that partially or fully overlay (or overlap) one another in order to offer a better service coverage to reach various destinations. While previous research has focused on understanding the general factors that impact headway adherence and delay, there has been little effort to address the effects of overlapping bus routes on service headway adherence and service bunching. This research investigates the impacts of bus route overlapping on service headway delay and probability of bunching at the stop-level of analysis. The study uses automatic vehicle location (AVL) and automatic passenger count (APC) systems data collected from TriMet, the public transit provider for Portland, Oregon, USA, along one of its heavily utilized bus corridors, the Barbur bus corridor. It is shown that service overlapping can increase headway delay by 3.8 seconds, with no impacts on service bunching. It is also shown that headway delay is a function of scheduled headway between trips. Thus, scheduling more time between trips decreases the service delay, with a minimum of delay occurring at 20 minutes. Trips starting late at the beginning of a route increase the odds of bunching for the following trip on schedule more than its delay. This study offers transit agencies and schedulers a better understanding of the effects of service overlapping on service headway delays from schedule and the determinants of us bunching, which are important components of transit service reliability.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2016, National Research Council. All rights reserved.Despite the widespread implementation of urban transport subsidies in many cities, there are still only a limited evaluation of the equity of these policies and scarce quantitative assessment of their distributional incidence. This research contributes to filling this gap by developing a practical approach to evaluate the impact of fare subsidization on vertical equity. This paper implements a two-step methodology. First, two main indicators were developed to measure the social impact of the travel pass, a highly subsidized fare, to determine the effectiveness of the policy in reaching lower-income citizens. Second, by using the latest disaggregated data from a transportation survey, in Madrid, Spain, a multiple regression model revealed that travel pass usage (TPU) depended mainly on income level and accessibility to public transport. The results show that the accessibility level has a positive effect on the TPU indicator, whereas income level has a negative influence. Because income level is shown to play the most significant role in influencing public transport use, the subsidy policy associated with the travel pass in the city can be considered progressive, since it effectively targets economically disadvantaged groups. This fact suggests that subsidies for public transport in Madrid tend to favor vertical equity.},

Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), with the sample of 103 universities with high research activities in the United States of America, the author found significant association between certain environmental dimensions of campus with more sustainable modes of commute. The results show that a higher percentage of students living on campus, is strongly associated with a higher percentage of students who walk or bike to class and a lower percentage of students who commute with only the driver in the vehicle. In addition, considering control variables, the findings indicate that both degrees of ‘urbanism' and ‘greenness' of campus have significant positive association with the percentage of students and the percentage of employees using transit, and significant negative association with the percentage of students who commute with only the driver in the vehicle. This finding can shed light on a classic debate among campus planners and designers about the dichotomy of a green and pastoral campus versus an urban campus. The results show that campuses and their surroundings must have a fair amount of both qualities to support more sustainable modes of commute.},

abstract = {Until now, very little has been known about cyclist speeds and delays at the disaggregate level of each road segment and intersection. Speeds and delays serve as vital information for navigation and routing purposes since they can identify speeds and delays during different times of the day and how they differ across roads and bicycle facilities. In this work, the authors explore the use of recent GPS cyclist trip data, from the Mon R{\'{e}}soV{\'{e}}lo smartphone application, for identifying different level-of-service measures such as travel time, speed and delay at the level of the entire road and intersection network for the island of Montreal. Also, a linear regression model is formulated to identify the geometric design and built environment characteristics affecting cyclist speeds on segments. Among other results, on average, segment speeds are greater along arterials than on local streets and greater along segments with bicycle infrastructure than those without. Modeling cyclist speed revealed that the variable representing the cyclists' average speed on uphill, downhill and level segments, cyclists' average speed on arterials as well as geometric design, built environment affect segment speeds. The model results identify that segments which have cyclists biking for work or school related purposes, segments used during morning peak, segments with bicycle infrastructure and segments which do not have signalized intersections at either end, tend to have cyclists riding at greater speeds. Also, cyclists travel faster when the temperature is between 10°and 20° and travel slower late at night or early morning.},

This lack of knowledge makes it difficult to design and to analyze facilities that are also used by cyclists, as well as to assess their efficiency and safety. This paper puts forward a novel composite headway model for bicycle flows. On the basis of a working definition of a bicycle headway, the model assumes that the headway is the sum of the so-called empty zone (i.e., the minimum headway that a cyclist has with respect to the bicycle he or she is following) and the free headway (i.e., the additional headway that cyclists maintain when they are not following). Both headways are stochastic variables, given the high degree of heterogeneity in cyclists' behavior. Further, a distribution-free model estimation approach is put forward to make it possible to identify the distributions of the empty zone and the free headway without the need to specify their functional form first. The workings of the model and the estimation method are illustrated with the use of data collected at a busy intersection in the Netherlands.},

This research assesses the geographic distribution of cycling infrastructure with regard to community demographic characteristics to assess claims that cycling investment arrives in tandem with incoming populations of privilege or is targeted towards neighborhoods with existing socioeconomic wealth. Using census and municipal cycling infrastructure data in Chicago and Portland from 1990 to 2010, we create demographic and cycling infrastructure investment indices at the census tract level. Linear regressions estimate the extent to which existing community demographics and change in demographics associated with gentrification are related to cycling infrastructure investment. In both cities, we identify a bias towards increased cycling infrastructure investment in areas of existing or increasing privilege. This paper suggests that marginalized communities are unlikely to attract as much cycling infrastructure investment without the presence of privileged populations, even when considering population density and distance to downtown, two motivators of urban cycling. To alleviate the continuation of inequitable distributions of cycling investments, planning processes may actively seek out diverse stakeholders and be sensitive to citywide community input and stated needs in future transportation projects.},

abstract = {The objective of this study was to conduct a time-series (before-to-after) evaluation of the safety performance of a sample of locations that have been improved under the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) Road Improvement Program. The program started in 1989 when ICBC established partnerships with local road authorities in British Columbia, Canada, and works cooperatively to make sound investments in road safety improvements. The overall effectiveness of the road improvement program was assessed by determining whether the frequency or severity of collisions at the improvement sites has been reduced after implementation of the improvement, and by quantifying the program costs versus the economic safety benefits to determine the return on ICBC's road safety investment. Seventy-two urban intersections were included in the evaluation. The methodology adopted for estimating the safety benefits was a before-after study with the full Bayesian method, while the benefit-cost analysis was carried out by using two indicators: net present value and benefit-cost ratio (B/C) with a payback period of 5 years. Overall, the total reductions of severe (fatal plus injury) and nonsevere (property damage only) collision frequency for intersections with new pedestrian signal installations were found equal to -24.54{\%} and -6.21{\%}, respectively; -22.95{\%} and -10.78{\%}, respectively, for intersections with geometric design improvements; and -13.76{\%} and -5.04{\%}, respectively, for intersections with traffic signal upgrades. Finally, an overall B/C ratio of 4.32:1 was achieved. {\textcopyright} 2016, National Research Council. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} Copyright 2016 SAE International.This work presents a modeling approach for estimation of the equivalent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of plugin hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) for real driving patterns and charging behaviors. In general, modeling of the equivalent GHG for a trip made by a PHEV not only depends on the trip trace in question, but also on the electric range of the vehicle and energy consumption in previous trips since the last charging event. This can significantly increase the necessary computational burden of estimating the GHG emissions using numerical simulation tools, which are already computationally-expensive. The proposed approach allows a trip numerical simulation starting with a fully charged battery to be re-used for GHG estimation of a trip that starts with any initial state of charge by re-allocating the appropriate amount electric energy to an equivalent gas consumption. Thus, the proposed approach allows modeling of many charging behaviors with minimal additional computational effort beyond one numerical simulation for each drive trace. Validation of the proposed approach is established through comparative simulations using 1012 trip traces, where the error in estimated fuel consumption was less than 3{\%} in most simulations. The full set of trip traces in California Household Travel Survey (CHTS) were then analyzed for the two PHEV models (with short and long electric range), for different charging behaviors and grid conditions.},

abstract = {Past studies of the construction manager–general contractor (CMGC) project delivery method have focused on its use by state and munici-pal departments of transportation. The literature also includes the approach to the CMGC delivery method based on Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) termed early contractor involvement (ECI), which the literature classifies as merely a different term for CMGC. The desire to use CMGC project delivery by the Federal Lands Highway Divisions stimulated a deeper study of the restrictions placed on federal agencies by the FAR and found that although CMGC and ECI project delivery are indeed similar, they are not identical. The findings of that study are reported. A comparative analysis of the two project delivery models is presented, and it is found that ECI delivery is substantially different from CMGC delivery because of FAR-based limitations on preconstruc-tion services and pricing methodology. It is concluded that the use of an incentive–disincentive scheme and the bidding of a proposed profit margin enhance competition during the ECI contractor selection pro-cess. The results of this study can be used outside the federal sector by state and local transportation agencies to furnish an alternative to the CMGC delivery method in those areas in which industry opposition is the primary barrier to implementing the CMGC delivery method. A project delivery method is " the comprehensive process of assign-ing the contractual responsibilities for designing and constructing a project. . . . [A] delivery method identifies the primary parties taking contractual responsibility for the performance of the work " (1). Con-tractual relationships between the various parties to the contract are different in each project delivery method. The traditional method for delivering highway projects is called the design–bid–build (DBB) delivery method. This method requires the owner to complete the construction documents either using internal design assets or out-sourcing the work to a design consultant. Once the design is com-plete, the department of transportation (DOT) advertises the project through an invitation for bids, awarding it to the contractor with the lowest responsive and responsible bid (2). There is no privity between designer and contractor, and the contractor is not involved in the design process. By definition, DBB is not an integrated delivery method (3). The DBB method has been in use for decades and works well for most projects. However, lack of contractor input limits the amount and quality of constructability that can be integrated into the final design and, as a result, alternative contracting methods have been used to deliver projects for which constructability is an essential factor of the project's success. There are many known issues with the traditional DBB method. For instance, the project development process is linear and sequential, resulting in longer overall project durations. Experience has shown that DBB project delivery often becomes adversarial during project execution and as such, research has shown that DBB projects have a higher average cost growth than projects delivered with alternative delivery methods. The three alternative project delivery methods used on heavy civil and highway projects are design–build (DB), construction manager–general contractor (CMGC), and early contractor involve-ment (ECI). One study that compared the performance of the three delivery methods with the DBB method found that the impact of using an alternative project delivery method reduced both cost and time growth during construction; the study concluded that ECI, CMGC, and DB projects tended to outperform traditional DBB projects in most measured criteria. Other major benefits associated with alter-native delivery methods include a shorter overall project delivery time, construction contractor input to the design, better quality construction documents, and early knowledge of costs (4).

To protect the safety of pedestrians and improve the crosswalk capacity, this paper applies the shock wave theory to analyses the characteristics of pedestrian arrival and release, and considers different related factors (i.e., crosswalk width, length, and signal timing). Based on the findings of this study, pedestrian release model is established. Combined with the survey data, this paper proposes the constraint conditions of protecting the safety of pedestrians, and calibrates the lateral distance between pedestrians and its limit value. Then this paper analyzes the parameters sensitivity and calculates pedestrian numbers of the model. Finally, this paper puts forward the applications of the model in two aspects: the optimal crosswalk width and crosswalk capacity that ensure the crossing pedestrian safety in specific geometric conditions. In the practical application, the proposed method in this study can be used as a reference for crosswalk width design.},

Part-day telecommuting occurs when the worker telecommutes while also travel to the workplace. In this case, telecommuting does not replace commute, but the workers may alter their commute departure times in order to avoid peak hour congestions. This paper intends to add empirical evidence on whether and to what extent telecommuting may lead to the temporal displacement of commute, and the actual outcomes on the network. With an interest on the departure time for commute trips, three different hazard models are developed, respectively for full-day commuters (no telecommuting episode), regular telecommuters (who telecommute on a regular basis), and non-regular telecommuters (who telecommute occasionally). Different socio-economic, demographic, and job-related attributes are used as independent variables in the model. Data were obtained from the 2010-2011 Regional Household travel Survey (RHTS) conducted in the New York Metropolitan region. This study adds to the literature by shedding light on the impacts of telecommuting on peak hour congestion relief and the underlying factors.},

abstract = {The railroad blocking problem is classified in the tactical level of freight rail transportation problems. The objective of this problem is to determine the optimal paths for each shipment such that the railway limitations are satisfied. In this problem, the quantities of both demand and supply resource indicators are often assumed to be certain and known, but because a blocking solution is designed for a relatively long period of time, this assumption is not reasonable. In this paper, we have developed a two-stage stochastic program for this problem to consider the uncertainty inherent in demand and supply resource indicators. Due to the size and complexity of the stochastic program and the impossibility of using commercial software in even the simplest instances, two solution methods have been proposed. The first method developed is based on the L-Shaped method, and the second method is a modification of the first one that uses a new initial solution (which is obtained by adapting a side optimization model) together with the L- Shaped method. Extensive experiments on test networks show that the two methods outperform the commercial software and that the second method is superior to the first one. We finally present the application of the uncertain model and the computational results of the second method for the Railways of Iran as a real-size example, and we show that the application of the stochastic model could reduce total cost by more than 12 million dollars per three-month horizon compared with the deterministic solution},

abstract = {Understanding factors contributing to crashes requires reliable records and detailed highway characteristics information. However, too often the information required for safety evaluations is not part of the crash records. Even when the technology exists to enable crash records to be supplemented with detailed highway information existing practices often fail to utilize the available technology. Due to the manual, semi-automated, nature of the crash reporting process, even when electronic forms are used, information included in the records is often incomplete or inaccurate. For example, contributing factors and highway characteristics entered into the crash report form are often the result of the interpretation of the police officer which can vary across the state. Supplementing crash records with highway information often involves the use of manual to semi-automated steps. These steps result in an unnecessary slow process given that the data required is often available in databases owned by transportation agencies. In this paper the use of an automated data fusion approach to supplement existing crash records with detailed highway information is presented. The data fusion approach presented relies on a photographic highway log, a data source traditionally owned by transportation agencies. Procedures presented enable the identification of horizontal and vertical roadway alignment characteristics such as curve radii, vertical curve characteristics, and vertical grade along with photographs of the roadway cross section upstream of the crash location. The supplemental roadway data identified is added to the crash record thus improving the amount of data available for safety evaluations.},

abstract = {Urban planners and designers use Visual Preference Surveys to gather public opinion on potential designs for new and re-developments. In conjunction with eye- tracking technology, the authors administered a Visual Preference Survey to a convenience sample to quantitatively evaluate the ways in which individuals process and rank images commonly used in public settings for urban planning. In analyzing the data the authors combine both a subjective qualitative analysis with quantitative evaluation of the eye-tracking data. The authors' analysis largely confirms that various new urbanist components of the images, namely people, pedestrian features, and greenery lead to higher rankings. Images with cars and parking receive negative rankings. Buildings, which are a key component of architectural design, had mixed results, likely due to variability in the attractiveness of different building fa{\c{c}}ades. The authors' analysis demonstrates the efficacy of Visual Preference Surveys and future work is needed to more fully control the image features and determine differential perspectives on urban design. The authors show a way for transportation and urban planners to drill down even further to extract greater value from Visual Preferences Surveys, consistent with efforts to increase pedestrian activity while reducing motor vehicle traffic in cities.},

abstract = {In this study, the results of an on-line survey of electronic locker (“eLocker”) users at transit stations in California are used to develop models of utilitarian bicycling that test the significance of factors contributing to the 1) choice to continue bicycling, or not, in the absence of eLockers, and 2) the frequency of eLocker use. To date, there has been limited research on factors influencing frequency of utilitarian bicycling. This study is unique in that a consistent set of policy relevant variables are tested—in both choice and frequency models—to understand their relative importance in different decision contexts. The results contribute insight into the significance of different bicycle infrastructure investments choices (e.g., secure and available bicycle parking and quality of the bicycle access route); market segments (e.g., age, sex, auto ownerships, and trip purpose); as well at attitudinal factors (e.g., level of commitment to cycling) that should be addressed in the design of a bicycle access program. In particular, the provision of reliably available and secure bicycle parking is likely to encourage both new bicyclers and infrequent bicyclers to bicycle more often for utilitarian travel. The distinction of reliably available highlights that secure bicycle parking should be carefully monitored to ensure sufficient supply, and reservation capabilities may be a valuable improvement to bicycle parking facilities.},

Using merchant, shopper, and residential surveys, researchers at UC Berkeley examined these questions, finding that mobility patterns in the Temescal neighborhood commercial district were less auto-oriented than merchants perceived, and that walkers were the most economically impactful group of shoppers. Analysis of travel patterns of residents around the neighborhood commercial district found that while residents overwhelmingly have access to cars, they use them selectively and would like to be able to use them less. The overarching methodology used in Temescal has since been replicated elsewhere, and provides a more nuanced and informative lens of travel patterns in neighborhood commercial districts than traditional traffic studies and census data, while also serving a useful outreach and education function for cities.},

abstract = {The Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) is a graphical method used to characterize a traffic state in a road network. In practice, it is still rather difficult to determine an MFD. Both traffic volumes and traffic densities are needed. Loop detectors and probe vehicles can provide the necessary input data. For the determination of the MFD also the proportion probe vehicles has to be known. On the ground are some practical problems: e.g. not all loop detectors work well enough to provide reliable traffic counts; and the proportion of probe vehicles (taxis) in the total flow of vehicles is not uniform in space and time because taxi drivers are inclined to avoid congested routes. The authors derived and analyzed the MFD for an urban area using data collected from taxis with GPS and traffic volumes measured by loop detectors. These data helped to determine the proportion of taxis in the traffic flows as a function of time and location. The changes of the taxi proportion during one day appear to be statistically significant. The proportion appears to be lower on a congested road or at peak hours than on a road with free flow conditions or at off peak hours. MFD diagrams could be drawn for an area covered by reliably working loop detectors. There is some evidence that the MFD is rather stable in one year on days with the same weather conditions but changes significantly in times of rainy, cold weather. An MFD diagram could also be drawn for an area with incomplete data, using only the data gained from a sample of the loop detectors. This MFD has similar characteristics as the one with complete data. This makes it possible to use the MFD for real traffic situations even when traffic data are missing or imperfect.},

The main objective is to contrast the latest empirical findings in 3 Barcelona [1], where the mainline metering capability (i.e. gating, meaning mainline flow 4 restriction) due to sub-critical speed limits (e.g. down to 40 km/h) was questioned. Moreover, 5 according to the Barcelona results, the validity of the current fundamental diagram models 6 accounting for DSL could be strongly compromised. 7 This investigation takes advantage of the huge empirical traffic database recorded by the 8 Dutch government and of DSL strategies being present on most of their freeways. Data is treated 9 in order to identify stationary periods of traffic. A method, reproducible elsewhere, and 10 computerized into an algorithm has been developed to this end. The fundamental diagram is used 11 as a graphical tool to assess the results. 12 The main findings do not contradict the Barcelona observations. Flows of 1850 veh/h per 13 lane were steadily observed for the sub-critical speed limit of 50 km/h. The reactive nature of the 14 DSL-control implemented in the Netherlands, implies that very low speed limits do not affect a 15 wide range of traffic states. This hampered the possibility of extending this conclusion. Further 16 research with less limiting DSL control strategies would be necessary to clarify the extent of the},

abstract = {In this paper, the authors analyzed the factors and conditions associated with car owners who chose carsharing (CS) over car ownership. The authors used over 3,400 responses to a survey by Metro Vancouver directed at members of three different carsharing services. Our bivariate analysis showed that out of 883 respondents who reduced their vehicle ownership after joining a carsharing service, 70{\%} became zero vehicle households. This suggests that, in these cases, access to CS services fully substituted private vehicles. According to the regression analysis, households who tended to reduce their vehicles after joining CS were 1) single households 2) those owning multiple vehicles prior to joining CS and, 3) those living in rental housing. On the other hand, households who kept their vehicles, even after joining CS, tended to have family members working outside of home. In addition, our logit regression analysis showed that households picking up cars at locations within apartment/townhouse complex, locations close to work/school, and locations close to transit stations were less likely to relinquish personal vehicles. The expansion of CS services in these locations has been a policy target by municipal governments. If the goal of public policy is to reduce private vehicle ownership, the authors might need to explore other strategies. The authors recommend conducting follow-up surveys to capture the effect in longer time frame and in other area, such as outside of urban core. The regression analysis also found that households who reduced vehicle ownership were twice as likely to report environmental awareness as a motivation than other CS households. Considering a strong positive relationship between the intention of cost saving by CS and vehicle ownership reduction (over 3.0 odds ratio), advertising CS as a cost effective and environmental friendly transportation option would be a potent strategy to implement CS as a vehicle ownership reduction measure.},

abstract = {Vehicle imbalances presumably occur due to one-way trips in free-floating Carsharing (FFCS) systems without reservation. This paper builds up a simulation framework for an existing vehicle relocation model for FFCS systems using optimization and rule-based methods. The simulation benefits from real historical booking data. It captures user-based vehicle movements as well as relocation movements suggested by the relocation model. The real dynamics of a FFCS system in Munich, Germany are simulated. The simulator can be easily adapted to other FFCS systems. The simulation identifies the relation between the application frequency of the relocation model and the degree to which demand is satisfied. Two different measures are distinguished: the spatial satisfaction of demand indicating a homogeneous distribution of served demand over the operating area and the quantitative satisfaction of demand indicating how much demand is served in total. The simulator's results assist the FFCS operator on determining the optimal frequency and amount of relocations. Expected relocation numbers can be translated into required staff size and thus into approximate costs for the relocations. Additionally, the impact of different relocation strategies on the systems' key performance indicators can be tested for different demand scenarios. The results of the simulation are promising. For an application frequency of 3 hours, the average percentage of satisfied demand per hexagon per day is increased by 10.5{\%} in case of base demand and by 8.6{\%} in case of 100{\%} increased demand.},

Differences in how individuals are affected by social influences may be explained in part by characteristics of their commute environments. In particular the authors investigate the impact of commute distance on the effect of social influence for a sample of students at University of California, Davis. Students within Davis travel up to four or five miles to get to campus from their homes and primarily commute by bike, bus or driving alone. Through an online survey, they collected information about students' transportation patterns and their social networks. For each participant as an ego, they gathered information about their ego-network including up to five alters or contacts. They estimate a set of two-stage residual inclusion models (an instrumental variables approach), on the full sample, and on sample segments based on distance to campus. Multinomial logistic regression including an interaction term for distance and their measure of social influence (the proportion of an ego-network that chooses bike is also estimated) is also presented. In both approaches the authors find that the effect of social influence on the decision to commute by bike is impacted by distance. In general, as distance increases the effect of social influence decreases; however, those with very short commute distances are also less affected by social influence towards biking. As social influence and other social processes are evaluated as potential policy instruments, these heterogeneous effects should be taken into account.},

Individuals' quality of social life can be dictated by the subjective quality of social interactions, particularly crucial for the elderly, the disadvantaged and the migrated population. Review of literature depicts that social belongingness and geographical integration contribute to an individual's quality of social life and that the number of social interactions do not necessarily represent the quality of social life. It is, therefore, important to gain insight in the subjective aspects of social activities in addition to the objective aspects. To that end, this study summarizes empirical evidence of factors that influence the importance of social interactions. Quality of social interactions is measured by the individual's subjective evaluation of social interactions. The subjective value added to each of the social interactions would reflect on the individual's social well-being, the authors argue. Further to represent geographical integration an index of perceived social cohesion has been incorporated into the estimation. Results suggest that neighborhood and mobility characteristics are important in explaining the quality of social interactions. Frequency of important social interactions is positively associated with frequency of walking or cycling. The frequency of important social interactions was also found to be higher for people living in neighborhoods with higher levels of perceived social cohesion and walkability, and lower for people living in rural areas, in neighborhoods with higher percentages of older residents and in neighborhoods with higher percentages of ethnic minorities.},

However, public transport systems' profitability requires a thorough diagnosis of the services provided based on users' perceptions and expectations. That is, to invest money according to users' requirements. A methodological approach, which combines an Importance-Performance Analysis and a decision tree model, is proposed as means of analyzing rail services performance in Algiers and identifying the aspects that should be prioritized for improvement actions. Three railway transit services were analyzed in Algiers: the tramway, the metro and the commuter rail. More than 450 surveys were collected per mode. After applying the proposed methodology, results show that there are lines of action common to the three services, and specific strategies that may improve customer satisfaction and customer loyalty with the three railway transit services in Algiers. This is the first full experience analysis about service quality in Algiers' railways transit modes. The proposed two-step methodology is, for the first time, applied for analyzing service quality in public transport.},

Along with this trend, many concerns arise about accessibility and safety. The monitoring and the management of pedestrians serve as a potential solution to maintain the resilience of the transport network. Monitoring and state estimation of pedestrian flows are crucial as a foundation for a successful crowd management support system. This paper focuses on the development of pedestrian state estimation. A two-dimensional (2-D) generalized adaptive smoothing method (2D-GASM) is presented to estimate the full state of an area on the basis of an increasing amount of available pedestrian observations in practice. The 2D-GASM method was developed on the basis of similar concepts in the adaptive smoothing method for motorway traffic, which was based on the characteristic that traffic travels forward in free flow and backward in congestion. The same mechanism is assumed for pedestrian flows....},

The proposed model maximizes the total reliability of routes connecting residential communities and shelters and those connecting shelters. A nondominated sorting genetic algorithm is developed to solve this biobjective model with a specially designed chromosome structure, initialization process, and genetic operators. The mathematical model is validated with a case study using storm surge scenario simulation data and real-world community and infrastructure data from Pingyang County, China.

Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

abstract = {As wages increase throughout the developing world, many people have set their sights on obtaining the ultimate social status symbol: the automobile. Planners, policy makers, and engineers in developing countries have also increasingly focused on building places amenable to the personal automobile in an attempt to replicate the model created by developed countries. As highways are built and roadways are widened, a vital component of the transportation system is being marginalized: the pedestrian. With large percentages of the population dependent on the affordable mode of walking, it is vital to understand how pedestrians interact with their larger and quicker counterpart. Are groups of pedestrians more likely to make dangerous crossing decisions, or are solo pedestrians more likely to behave in such ways? The purpose of this paper is to explore pedestrians' willingness to take risk when interacting with automobiles. Understanding how different types and groupings of pedestrians behave in certain locations will allow for the design and implementation of transportation systems that are safer for all users. Data was collected at mid-block crossing locations in the city of Bangalore, India. Independent variables of gender and grouping of pedestrians was compared in relation to the proclivity for those pedestrians to exhibit risky behavior. Logistic regressions suggests that while solo female pedestrians may be the least willing to take risk, female pedestrians in groups are actually the most likely subset to exhibit risky crossing behaviors. Also, as pedestrian groups become larger, they are more apt to exhibit risky behavior.},

Specifcally, the controller performance related to emergency vehicle preemption operation is characterized in an effort to identify performance measures that will allow a traffc engineer to understand better the impact that various confgurations have on intersection operations. Performance measures for individual intersections in coordinated systems include preemption duration, transition duration, and total interruption time. Performance measures for networks are based on an emergency vehicle reidentifcation process for deriving an emergency vehicle's trajectory through a network, and the results can further be used to estimate travel time, travel speed, and origin-destination. These performance measures are illustrated by simulated signal system in Morgantown, West Virginia. Transition modes are varied in the simulation network to determine the relative performance measures. Case studies are presented for using high-resolution data to troubleshoot feld preemption operation using signal systems in Morgantown and Huntington, West Virginia.},

abstract = {Autonomous vehicles offer new traffic behaviors that could revolutionize transportation, such as the reservation-based intersection control and reduced reaction times that result in greater road capacity. Most studies have used micro-simulation models of these new technologies to more realistically study their impacts. However, micro-simulation is not tractable for larger networks. Recent developments in simulating reservation-based controls and multiclass cell transmission models for autonomous vehicles in dynamic traffic assignment have allowed studies of larger networks. This paper presents analyses of several highly congested arterial and freeway networks to quantify how reservations and reduced reaction times affect travel times and congestion. Reservations were observed to improve over signals in most situations. However, signals outperformed reservations in a congested network with several close local road-arterial intersections because the capacity allocations of signals were more optimized for the network. Reservations also were less efficient than traditional merges/diverges for on- and off-ramps. On the other hand, the increased capacity due to reduced following headways resulted in significant improvements for both freeway and arterial networks. Finally, we studied a downtown network, including freeway, arterial, and local roads, and found that the combination of reservations and reduced following headways resulted in a 78{\%} reduction in travel time.},

abstract = {This study explored how adults who are planning for retirement consider transportation issues. Using interviews, this study explored three research questions with employed, middle-aged adults living in low-density suburbs who are planning for retirement: 1. How do they view their post-retirement transportation needs? 2. How have these needs affected their retirement plans? 3. Do they consider alternative transportation options a factor when deciding on a retirement location? A number of studies have examined the transportation needs of older adults, but few studies have explored the transportation concerns of middle-aged adults as they plan for retirement. Examining these adults' perceptions of their likely future transportation needs helps to identify gaps in retirement education, as well as helping planners to better understand how to plan cities to accommodate retirees. Interviews were conducted with 15 homeowners between the ages of 55 and 65 who are planning their retirement. Key findings include • The majority of interviewees planned to continue driving well into their retirement years and did not consider transportation to be a retirement concern. • All interviewees anticipated driving cessation but hadn't actively planned for it. Most associated driving cessation with very old age and did not consider it an immediate concern. • Most interviewees did not consider alternative transportation options when deciding on a retirement location. • Respondents who wanted to retire to a walkable neighborhood saw walking in terms of recreation and leisure rather than as a solution to anticipated transportation needs. • When asked about driving cessation, the majority of interviewees suggested they would move to a central location with better access to public transportation, and amenities and services within walking distance.},

abstract = {1 2 This paper investigates mode choice behavior for work tours and non-work tours based on data 3 from a within-day travel survey in Zhongshan, Guangdong province in China. The sample 4 analyzed, consisting of 7,734 tours, was obtained by transforming raw trip data into tours and 5 differentiating between work and non-work tours. Using multinomial logit models, we analyze 6 mode choice for both work and non-work tours separately, while considering trip chain 7 complexity – including number of stops, tour distance, monetary cost, and number of daily tours. 8 The rho-squared measures of goodness of fit are much higher for work tours than for non-work 9 tours, suggesting that non-work mode choice may be more diverse and less predictable. All 10 socio-demographic characteristics significant for non-work tours are also significant for work 11 tours, while gender and household size are significant only for work tours. Interestingly, an 12 increase in the number of intermediate stops within non-work tours is associated with increased 13 use of non-driving modes (bus and bicycle), but an increase within work tours is associated with 14 decreased use for non-driving modes. Prior research analyzing trip chain complexity considered 15 mostly for pooled data without distinguishing between non-work tours and work tours. The 16 findings of this paper, when we account for this distinction, suggest that if intermediate stops 17 increase, compared to choosing car, respondents are more likely to choose non-driving modes 18 (walk, bicycle, motorcycle, and bus) for non-work tours, whereas they are less likely to choose 19 bicycle or bus for work tours.},

By exploiting a symmetry property of the stochastic MFD, whereby it exhibits identical probability distributions in free-flow and congestion, it is found that the network MFD depends mainly on two dimensionless parameters: the mean block length to green ratio and the mean red to green ratio. The theory is validated with an exact traffic simulation and with the empirical data from the city of Yokohama. It is also shown that the effect of buses can be approximated with the proposed theory by accounting for their effect in the red to green ratio parameter.},

Over its ten-year existence, Portal has expanded both in the type of data it receives and in the geographic regions from which it gets data. In this paper, the authors discuss the evolution of Portal. They describe the new data, new regions and new systems that have been added and how those changes have affected the archive. They conclude with a section on "Uses of Portal" that provides several examples of how Portal data have been used by regional partners – with a focus on measuring the performance of the multimodal transportation system, but also including educational elements and research.},

The multimodal time- and approach-dependent algorithm does not require spatial or temporal expansion of the network; this feature results in good computational performance for large-scale applications.

Recent work has shown how processed 8 origin-destination trips, as developed by trip data providers, supports travel analysis. Much less 9 is reported on how raw data from telecommunication providers can be processed to support such 10 analysis or to what extent the raw data can be treated to extract travel behavior.

We show a data treatment 13 pipeline that uses only phone data and population density to generate trip matrices in two 14 Metropolitan areas: Boston and Rio de Janeiro. We detail how to label zones as home and work 15 based on frequency and the time of day. Based on the labels (home, work, or other) of 16 consecutive stays we can assign purposes to trips such as home-based-work. The resulting 17 number of trips pairs are expanded using the total population from census data. We show 18 comparable results with existing information reported in local surveys in Boston and existing 19 origin-destination matrices in Rio de Janeiro.

abstract = {This article describes a novel approach for the binary classification of two-wheeler road users in a dense mixed traffic intersection. The classification is a supervised procedure to differentiate between motorized and non-motorized (human-powered) bikes. Road users were first detected and tracked using object recognition methods. Classification features were then selected from the collected trajectories. The features include maximum speed, cadence frequency in addition to acceleration-based parameters. Experiments were conducted on a video data set from Shanghai, China, where cyclists as well as motorcycles tend to share the main road facilities. A sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the quality of the selected features in improving the accuracy of the classification. A performance analysis demonstrated the robustness of the proposed classification method with a correct classification rate of up to 93{\%}. This research contributes to the literature of automated data collection and can benefit the applications in many transportation-related fields such as shared space facility planning, simulation models for two-wheelers, and behavior analysis and road safety studies.

abstract = {This paper presents an integrated solution method to the frequency. setting problem using optimization and assignment simulation. With a bilevel solution framework, an optimization problem is run at the upper level under the assumption that the total transit demand is fixed. The objective is to maximize wait time savings under the budget, fleet size, vehicle load, and policy headway constraints. At the lower level, an assignment and simulation algorithm is run; the algorithm models the demand response to the new frequency setting and transmits updated ridership and flow values to the upper level. The procedure is repeated until the improvement in the wait time savings converges. The platform is tested on the Chicago Transit Authority network in Illinois for the morning peak. The wait time savings in this experiment are converging and are found to be comparable with the results of a stand-alone frequency-setting algorithm that finds optimal solutions. Results are comparable with the optimal results of a stand-alone platform introduced in another study that modeled the demand response locally by using elasticities as opposed to networkwide modeling using assignment. The integrated platform can be used for medium-term strategic and long-term planning decisions.},

While putative rail barons may have conducted some economic analysis, the final decision lay with Parlia- ment, which did not have available modern transportation economic or geographic analy- sis tools. How good were the decisions that Parliament made in approving Underground Lines? This paper explores the role accessibility played on the decision to approve or reject proposed early London tube schemes.

Specifically, four common types of bicycle LOS measures were identified and a representative measure from each was calculated for all the major roadway segments within the city. Additionally, results from a survey of different cyclists on the perceived bicycle route suitability were collected and summarized. The comparisons highlight a surprising disconnect between the level of service measures and suitability. Namely, suitability was perceived the same across all different cyclist types but those segments ranked highly suitable did not correspond to those with high levels of service. Additionally, suitability was evaluated in terms of routes whereas level of service treats segments independently. The distribution of suitability and level of service were significantly different as well: suitability had a few highly suitable routes and an increasing number of less suitable locations, but the different level of service measures had varying distributions of what was acceptable or not. Significant recommendations on how by city and regional transportation planners may better inform their bicycle facility improvement decision-making are made.},

The paper analyzes the impact of railing geometric features (railing length, railing spacing and railing location) and pedestrian traffic features (pedestrian volume and two pedestrian stream ratio) on the feature of pedestrian weaving zone (PWZ) in horizontal passageway through the geometric feature by the means of controlled experiments. Then, three evaluation indexes (pedestrian weaving intensity, density factor of weaving points, pedestrian trajectory offset ratio) are introduced to analyze the influence rules of the above five factors (pedestrian volume, two pedestrian stream ratio, railing length, railing spacing and railing location) on the PWZ by the means of pedestrian simulation software Legion. Finally, the paper analyzes the railing design dimensions (railing length and railing spacing) by the scatter diagrams of the relationship among the three evaluation indexes and the five factors. After determining the values of the railing length and railing spacing, the paper divides the way of setting up the railings into parallel, dislocation and partition and analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of parallel, dislocation and partition by five indexes (pedestrian weaving intensity, density factor of weaving points, pedestrian trajectory offset ratio, capacity percentage and density percentage).},

abstract = {A variety of communication channels and outreach tools are in use by Public Involvement (PI) programs in transportation planning and construction. Several metrics and measures are traditionally used to evaluate the performance of such programs and to measure their level of success in achieving their pre-defined goals. These metrics are mainly quantitative, attempting to connect the success of PI to the outreach size. However, the prevalence of modern techniques, particularly tools offered by Social Web in PI practices, is adding a new dimension to the definition of success for such programs. Evaluating such practices calls for a better understanding of the "content" and "meaning" of communicated content rather than quantity of participants or communication installments. Based on this philosophy, the current paper introduces computational linguistic and semantic analysis as methods to process the content and crystallize the core topics discussed. Methods benchmarked from information retrieval are used to make sense of the content of public meetings discussions. Two parallel resources including online social media (Twitter), and news (online and offline newspapers) are then used to enhance the evaluation process. The Eglinton Crosstown transit project in Toronto is used as a case study in this paper. The project presents an interesting case in which a major design change was made due to public consultations. The objective of this paper is to use results from the analysis of content to highlight trends that may have been among factors causing the decision change. By focusing on changes in technical and social aspects of discussions before and after the decision change, the authors investigate how the changes relate to public needs announced through multiple channels.},

A review of earlier work on transit user behavior concluded that the traveler's perspective of reliability was driven by punctuality in arriving at the destination, short waiting times at the origin stop, and consistent wait and travel times. Twenty indicators were assessed, but none were well suited to capturing all of these elements of reliability. A new measure, journey time buffer index (JTBI), was therefore proposed; the index used estimates of wait times at bus stops while capturing variability in wait and travel times that tended to increase the disutility of transit travel. Alternative formulations were developed for short and long headway service, and the new indicator was applied to the London Transit Commission's bus network in London, Ontario, Canada. This procedure demonstrated that the JTBI was better suited to identifying the factors contri...},

However, a lack of bike-specific planning tools makes it difficult for planners to develop ridership estimates and thus accommodate cyclists' needs to provide better infrastructure. This paper proposes a series of empirical models and applies them to the state of Maryland in the United States. A set of spatial lag models are developed to explore land use, built environment, demographic, socio- economic, and travel behavior connections to bicycle ridership. To account for geographical typologies urban, suburban and rural models are proposed. Results show that land use patterns, socioeconomic, demographic, network and travel characteristics are positively correlated with bicycle ridership. Specific types of land use, employment categories, auto ownership, and income levels have inverse relationships with bicycle ridership. The model is also applied to assess two hypothetical future land-use scenarios; in an exercise that shows how this tool may better predict future ridership and infrastructure needs. This proposed approach could be used as a tool to model and forecast bicycle demand, and to assist agencies in preparing and planning for future years.},

abstract = {The development of a municipal or metropolitan planning organization (MPO) sidewalk plan entails three steps: evaluating existing conditions, proposing recommendations, and offering an implementation plan. An efficient implementation plan often requires sidewalks to be prioritized into short term, medium term, and long term tiers. During the prioritization process, it is often essential to account for geographic equity within the area to minimize funding conflicts and to reduce spotty facility developments throughout a city. However, such methods for obtaining geographic equity have rarely been addressed in planning and research. Therefore, this study proposes a two-step prioritization method accounting for geographic equity to prioritize sidewalks. First, roadway segments with sidewalk needs are automatically ranked using needs-based criteria including land use connections, mixed land use index, proximity to bus stops, greenways, and trails, pedestrian crashes, sidewalk gaps, no-vehicle workers, household poverty, and street classifications. This procedure generates an area-wide list of absolute scores taking into account all of the needs-based criteria above. Second, for each council district, the sidewalk needs are prioritized relative to the distribution of scores and the within-total length of sidewalk needs in the district. A review of the results demonstrates that over 85{\%} of sidewalk projects manually planned by planning experts and managers in the City of Greensboro (North Carolina) matched with those prioritized into short term tier using the proposed methodology. This methodology is not only suitable for prioritizing sidewalks in a Pedestrian Plan but is also applicable for evaluating and selecting priority projects for implementation under a construction program.},

abstract = {Cycling has been considered as a healthy, environmentally friendly, and economical alternative mode of travel to the motorized vehicles (especially private motorized vehicles). However, it has often been neglected in the transportation planning and travel demand forecasting modeling process. Hence, the current practice in modeling bicycle trips in a network is either non-existence or too simplistic (i.e., simply based on the all-or-nothing assignment method using a single attributes such as distance, safety, or a composite measure of safety multiplied by distance). The purpose of this paper is to develop a two-stage traffic assignment model by considering the key factors (or criteria) in cyclists' route choice behavior. The first stage considers two key criteria (e.g., distance related attributes and safety related attributes) to generate a set of non-dominated (or efficient) paths, while the second stage determines the flow allocation to the set of efficient paths. In stage one, a bi-objective shortest path problem based on the two key attributes is developed to generate the efficient paths. In stage two, several traffic assignment methods are adopted to determine the flow allocations in a network. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the two-stage approach for bicycle traffic assignment.},

abstract = {Traditional signal timing policies have typically prioritized vehicles over pedestrians at intersections, leading to undesirable consequences such as large delays and risky crossing behaviors. The objective of this paper is to explore signal timing control strategies to reduce pedestrian delay at signalized intersections. The impacts of change in signal controller mode of operation (coordinated vs. free) at intersections were studied using the micro-simulation software VISSIM. A base model was developed and calibrated for an existing pedestrian active corridor. A hypothetical network of three intersections was used to explore the effects of mode of operation and measures of delay for pedestrians and all users. From a pedestrian perspective, free operation was found to be more beneficial due to lower delays. However, from a system wide (all user) perspective, coordinated operation showed the greatest benefits with lowest system delay under heavy traffic conditions (v/c {\textgreater} 0.7). In the off-peak conditions when traffic volumes are lower, free operation resulted in lowest system delay (v/c {\textless} 0.7). During coordination, lower cycle lengths were beneficial for pedestrians, due to smaller delays. The results revealed that volume to capacity (v/c) ratios for the major street volumes coupled with pedestrian actuation frequency for the side street phases, could be used to determine the signal controller mode of operation that produces the lowest system delay. The results were used to create a guidance matrix for controller mode based on pedestrian and vehicle volumes. To demonstrate application, the matrix is applied to another corridor in a case study approach.},

abstract = {Individual pedestrian velocities vary over time and space depending on the crowd size, location of individuals' within the crowd, and formation of self-organized lanes. We use empirical data to explore the spatial fluctuations of pedestrian velocities in bidirectional streams. We find that, unlike ordinary fluids, the velocity profile in bidirectional pedestrian streams does not necessarily follow a hyperbolic form. Rather, the shape of the velocity profile is highly dependent on the formation of self-organized lanes. We also show that the spatial fluctuations of pedestrian velocities along and transverse to the flow direction are widely distributed and can be modeled by a sum of Gaussian distributions. Results suggest that the effect of self-organization phenomenon is strong enough that for the same crowd size, the velocity distribution does not significantly change when pedestrians are highly mixed compared to when separate lanes are formed.},

Different types of bus stops could have distinct impact on the operation of different road users. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate how different types of bus stops influence the operation of bicycles, vehicles, and buses. Four types of stops were considered according to the geometric feature and lane arrangement. Field data collection was conducted on 8 typical roads in Nanjing and Shanghai, China. The results of this study showed that different bus stop designs had quite different impacts on the operations of traffic flow. More specifically, Type 3 stop had the least impact on bicycle speed, but had the largest impact on vehicle speed. Type 4 stop had the least impact on bicycle and vehicle traffic operation, but occupied the most road resource. Type 1 stop had better operational feature of traffic flow as compared to that near the Type 2 stop. Suggestions regarding the design of bus stops were discussed according to the delay of bicycles, vehicles, and buses produced at each stop type.},

Field data were collected on physically separated bicycle path in Shanghai, China, and were used to calibrate the CA model using the genetic algorithm. Traffic flow features between simulations of several CA models and field observations were compared. The results showed that our modified CA model produced more accurate simulation for the fundamental diagram and the passing events in mixed bicycle traffic flow. Based on our model, the bicycle traffic flow features, including the fundamental diagram, the number of passing events, and the number of lane changes, were analyzed. We also analyzed the traffic flow features with different traffic densities, traffic components on different travel lanes. Results of the study can provide important information for understanding and simulating the operations of mixed bicycle traffic flow.},

Private costs consist in the operational-private costs borne by the users. Public costs comprise the costs about the financial spending on infrastructure and maintenance. External costs include the costs of the impacts on society and the environment such as air pollution, congestion, noise pollution, traffic accidents and greenhouse effect.

Traffic data were collected through eleven local surveys covering the city of Yangon and a part of six adjacent townships. These surveys were implemented by the Japan International Cooperation Agency from February 2013 to August 2013. The Person Trip Survey, one of the eleven surveys conducted, collected the daily travel diaries of 11,330 households in the survey area. The surveys revealed the similarity and uniqueness in the urban transportation problems and policies in Yangon. Yangon has suffered from traffic congestion, long travel time, poor public transportation service, mobility gap between high and low income individuals, and serious traffic accidents, which are typical problems in developing cities. On the other hand, Yangon has introduced unique transportation policies: a motorcycle and bicycle ban and regulation on the import of vehicles, which contributed to a reduction in car usage in Yangon. However, the effectiveness of these unique policies may be questionable in the future due to the recent rapid changes in socio-economics and socio- demographics in the city. Therefore, further issues are presented including the establishment of an institutional system for better implementation, and an introduction of a financial scheme for the feasible funding of transportation infrastructure investment.},

In response, the Florida Department of Transportation launched the Bicycle–Pedestrian Focused Initiative to increase awareness of and decrease fatalities among bi- cyclists and pedestrians in Florida. A study conducted by the Center for Urban Transportation Research at the University of South Florida tracked the crossing behavior of individuals at high crash locations and then asked them about their understanding of pedestrian traf c laws. The results showed that most of the people surveyed about the traf c laws knew the correct answer and followed the law. The study found that 82{\%} of the people interviewed crossed at the crosswalk and correctly answered the question about whether it was illegal to cross midblock; 57{\%} said that they pressed the pedestrian push button when it was avail- able and also were observed to press it; 64{\%} of people were observed to start to cross on green pedestrian time and also said they did so when asked. Further, the study compared the behavior of people exposed to the safety campaign before the survey and also how their behavior changed when they were rst asked the questions and then were observed during their crossing. The data showed that people exhibited safer behavior when they were asked the questions rst and observed to cross afterward. The study showed results for several attributes, including crossing location, pedestrian signal indication while crossing, pedestrian push button use, and distraction.},

Given the recent growth of BSS across the world, there is substantial interest in identifying contributing factors that encourage individuals to use these systems. The current study contributes to the growing literature by examining BSS behavior at at trip level to analyze bicyclists' destination preferences. Specifcially, we study the dcision process involved in identifying destination locations after ppicking up a bicycle at a BSS station using a random utility maximization approach in the form of a multinomial logit model (MNL). The quantitative frameworks developed have been estimated using data from Chicago's Divvy system for 2013. In our modeling effort, we distinguish between BSS users with annual membership and short-term customers with daily passes. The developed model will allow bicycle-sharing system operators to better plan their services by examining the impact of travel distance, land use, built environment and access to public transportation infrastructure on users' destination preferences. using the estimated model we generate utility profiles as a function of distance and various other attributes allowing us to visually represnet the trade-offs that individuals make in their decision process. To further illustrate the applicability of the proposed framework for planning purposes, destination station choice probability prediction is undertaken.},

Because of the specific geographic shape and roadway network of Miami Beach, Florida, residents need to evacuate over one of the six major bridges or causeways: MacArthur Causeway, Venetian Causeway, Julia Tuttle Causeway, John F. Kennedy Causeway, Broad Causeway, and Haulover Bridge. A mixed logit model is presented to identify the determining factors for evacuees from Miami Beach in selecting one of these bridges during a major hurricane. The model was developed by using data obtained from a survey that included a hypothetical Category 4 (major) hurricane scenario to reveal the most likely plans for evacuees from this area. The estimation findings suggest that the preference over a given bridge involves a complex interaction of variables, such as distance to reach the evacuation destination, evacuation-specific characteristics (evacuation day, time, mode, and destination), and evacuee-specific characteristics (gender, race, evacuation experience, and living experience). The normally distributed random parameters in the model account for the existence of unobserved heterogeneity across different observations. The findings of this study will help emergency officials and policy makers to develop efficient operational measures and better evacuation plans for a major hurricane by determining different fractions of people taking each of the six bridges.},

abstract = {In recent years, carsharing has become a practical, ecological, and$\backslash$neconomical alternative to private car ownership around the world.$\backslash$nTraditional carsharing is station-based, but new types of shared$\backslash$nservices have appeared recently. One of those is free-floating$\backslash$ncarsharing. It is more flexible, but what is its impact on user$\backslash$nbehavior? This paper aims to characterize the use of the free-floating$\backslash$ncarsharing service in central Montreal, Canada. Use of the traditional,$\backslash$nstation-based service and the new service was compared. Because some$\backslash$npeople were members of both services, it was possible to examine the$\backslash$nspecific contribution of each service to meeting travel needs. The$\backslash$nimpact of the introduction of this new transportation alternative was$\backslash$nalso examined. The results showed that compared with traditional$\backslash$ncarsharing, more women were members of the free-floating service and the$\backslash$ntrip distances and durations were much shorter. Shopping was the most$\backslash$nimportant activity, and there was a concentration of trip ends near the$\backslash$ncentral business district in the midday period. When asked what mode$\backslash$nusers would have used in the absence of the free-floating service,$\backslash$npeople mentioned public transit, taxis, and walking; the popularity of$\backslash$nthese alternatives varied, probably in relation to seasonal changes..$\backslash$nFurther studies are required to measure the environmental impact of this$\backslash$nnew transportation mode.},

abstract = {Usage of traffic simulation has increased significantly over the past two decades; and this high-fidelity modelling, along with moving vehicle animation, has allowed important transportation decisions to be made with better confidence. During this time, traffic engineers have typically been encouraged to embrace the process of calibration, in which steps are taken to reconcile simulated and field-observed traffic performance. According to international surveys, top experts, and conventional wisdom, existing (non-automated) methods of calibration have been difficult and/or inadequate. There has been a significant amount of research on techniques to improve calibration, but many of these projects and papers have not provided the level of flexibility and practicality typically required by real-world engineers. With this in mind, a patent-pending (US 61/859,819) architecture for software-assisted calibration was developed to maximize practicality, flexibility, and ease-of-use. This architecture is called SASCO (i.e. Sensitivity Analysis, Self-Calibration, and Optimization). The original optimization method within SASCO was based on "directed brute force" (DBF) searching; performing exhaustive evaluation of alternatives in a discrete, user-defined search space. Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation (SPSA) has also gained favor as an efficient method for optimizing computationally expensive, "black-box" traffic simulations, and was also evaluated within SASCO. Preliminary experiments were performed to compare the effectiveness of DBF and SPSA, using synthetic and real-world networks. Results imply the two optimization methods have complementary attributes, and in some cases should be applied in tandem. Regardless of which optimization method is selected, the SASCO architecture appears to offer a new and practice-ready level of calibration efficiency.},

This paper describes a series of performance measures derived from highresolution signal controller event data that can be used to optimize the internal phase sequence and offset to improve traffic flows within diamond interchanges and to assess the progression of the interior movements qualitatively and quantitatively. The new heuristic developed in this paper improves on traditional green band optimization techniques by incorporating actual demand profiles measured in the field. A field analysis was performed on a diamond interchange at I-69 and 96th Street in northwest Indianapolis, Indiana, where the existing sequence data were collected and used to model the alternative sequences to identify the optimal sequence. Interior operations were improved under the optimized settings: the percentage of vehicle arrivals on green increased by 19{\%} during the 09:00-to-15:00 midday plan. Video observations were used to corroborate the data and are included in a video synthesis of the time-space trajectories.},

abstract = {Unlike road networks and transit networks, bicycling networks can suffer from a lack of connectivity, especially considering that the mainstream population is unwilling to ride on many main roads. For this reason, improving network connectivity is widely recognized as an objective of bicycle planning; however, planners lack connectivity metrics that they might use, for example, to justify investments. The authors propose as a measure of connectivity that can be applied to a designated bicycling network. It is the fraction of origin- destination (O-D) pairs that can be served using that network, allowing a short access distance at both the origin and destination end. Because population and employment data can generally be obtained for traffic analysis zones (TAZs), they suggest using a sample of points from each TAZ as origins and destinations, weighted by population and (for job destinations) employment in the TAZ. Two methods of calculating connectivity are explored, the first using the general street network for access to the bicycling network, and the other allowing access along an abstracted network, while accounting for barriers such as rivers, railroads, and highways. Results of a case study of the metro Boston greenway network finds similar results from both methods, though the first is found to be superior for several reasons. The case study finds that by adding critical connecting links and extensions to the bikeway network that increase its length by a factor of 2.5, the fraction of home-work pairs that will be connected by the network increases by a factor of 13. This immense and disproportionate increase in connectivity reflects the importance of providing critical connecting links and of having understandable and computable connectivity metrics.},

The measuring system was developed by identifying transit performance variants at the bus stop level with the use of a dynamic composite weighting factor approach on a geographic information system platform. A tier structure framework was used to categorize the composite scores of bus stops into six groups. Specific transit improvement actions were then tailored on the basis of their bus stop characteristics. Two project application examples are presented in this paper. One is a bus stop thinning project for speed improvement, and the other is for prioritizing capital project improvements. As various active transportation programs emerge to encourage local jurisdictions to plan transit connectivity with other community gathering places, this bus stop measuring approach presents a continued process to monitor their performance. It is also used to strengthen integration with other street improvement activities, including pedestrian paths and bikeways, to create a safe and sustainable urban environment.},

In this paper, we present findings of exploratory analysis of the data collected in this test. 4 Clustering of day patterns from FMS data reveals large day-to-day variability of user behavior, 5 which cannot be captured by taking a snapshot with a one-day survey. We show that even if we 6 take advantage of cross-sectional variability of a larger sample size from a traditional survey, we 7 would not have achieved the comprehensive set of heterogeneous patterns as provided by FMS. 8 Some common problems in traditional surveys, such as under-reporting of trips, over-estimation 9 of travel times, in accuracy of location and time, can be significantly reduced by FMS. The FMS 10 data, as compared to HITS, has higher resolution and better accuracy. In addition, FMS is well-11 suited to collect multi-day data as additional cost is marginal and user burden reduces over time. 12 Therefore, it is a promising technology for next generation travel data collection.},

Finding least cost hyperpaths in a large-scale network and assigning travelers onto these paths are computationally challenging problems. Moreover, modeling the spatial and temporal complexities in a transit network that result from the discontinuities in transit events, such as missing a connection and not receiving a seat, exacerbates the issue of capturing realism. These challenges are overcome by (a) using a least cost hyperpath algorithm that captures the multimodal, multipattern, time-, and approach-dependent features of a transit network to provide realistic optimal strategies; (b) using a gap-based assignment approach to reach fast convergence; and (c) developing a multiagent particle simulation platform that is able to capture the heterogeneities and the discontinuities in travel. The platform was tested on the Chicago Transit Authority network of 14,000 nodes and 64,000 links; 1.25 million travelers were assigned and simulated...},

In comparison with other road users, automated data collection for cyclists is a challenging task. This paper presents and evaluates an automated video-based method for counting bicycles in different environments such as intersections and road segments. The method consists of three different elements: mobile video-camera-mast hardware, moving road user detection and tracking techniques, and classification-counting algorithms. The results indicate that the method is highly accurate at gathering short-term bicycle counts in locations where traditional technologies such as loop detectors and pneumatic tubes, do not work properly. One of the main advantages of the method is its ability to count cyclists flow for different movements with different origins and destinations, even in complex environments with mixed traffic such as intersections. In addition to counting cyclists, the trajectory data gathered through this method can also be used for a variety of purposes such as cyclist behaviour and road safety studies. For 5 minute interval counts, the accuracy of the proposed method ranged from 73 {\%} for intersections without a cycle track to 90 {\%} for road segments with a cycle track, while for 15 minute interval counts, the accuracy ranged from 81 {\%} for intersections without a cycle track to 93 {\%} for road segments with a cycle track.},

abstract = {Knowledge of cross slope values along a road alignment can help improve the safety of existing roadway designs, identify areas with drainage problems, help with the identification of oversize and overweight vehicle routes, and provide better crash reconstruction information, among others. However, detailed cross slope measurements of existing roadways are not values that are readily available for transportation agencies. However, transportation agencies continue to increase the use of LiDAR data as part of their day-to-day operations. As a result, agencies have continuously-increasing rich and powerful datasets that too often go unused. LiDAR data can help bridge the gap between the information that is desirable about existing roadways and what is feasible to obtain with traditional survey methods. Existing work has already shown the feasibility of using LiDAR datasets for cross slope computation and other applications although most of the work have focused on the scientific and mathematical nature of the process. This paper focuses on providing end-users with a methodology that can be followed to obtain cross slope information from existing LiDAR datasets through the use of commonly available engineering software. The methodology presented will allow transportation agencies to leverage the power of existing LiDAR datasets therefore enabling a more efficient use of existing resources and provide a greater return on investment of existing data assets.},

abstract = {Disruption to journeys is a key source of dissatisfaction to travellers and is a significant cost to the economy. As many networks are operating over, at or close to capacity for significant periods during the week even seemingly small events can generate widespread disruption. Some of this is the day to day story of the transport system where the infrastructure breaks, the vehicles breakdown or there is a human failure (driver shortages or accidents). Less frequent events can also be important such as climate-related infrastructure failure, which is forecast to rise and, fortunately rare, terrorist attack. The responses necessary to be resilient to these types of events may be quite different to those that can tackle the day to day variation. What seems certain is that there will be more pressures from increased demand for travel, more climatic events and therefore more potential for disruption. This paper explores questions around how reliable and resilient the authors should expect the transport system to be? Accepting that more disruption is likely it also asks how the transport operators, travellers and wider social system might become more adept at dealing with disruption when it does happen.},

abstract = {The use of mobile phone location data to support transportation planning and travel behavior analysis is becoming common practice for many agencies, driven largely by the large sample size and lower costs for acquiring and processing the data. With recent successes to build from, these data are becoming more heavily marketed to transportation planning practitioners. The challenge is that these practitioners have few tools at their disposal for understanding data acquisition, data quality, data limitations, and data application issues. This lack of understanding can lead to situations where agencies invest in a product that does not fully meet their needs because they did not have a full understanding of the limitations, or conversely, that they purchase these data for a specific need but do not exploit these data to its full potential thereby not maximizing the return on their investment. This paper attempts to address many of those questions through a detailed analysis of AirSage data in comparison to a household travel survey conducted during the same time period. Also presented is a methodology for performing reasonableness checks on the data for agencies who cannot afford to invest in both a household travel survey and the collection of mobile phone location data. Finally, this paper offers practitioners with valuable insights into using mobile phone location data to support travel model validation. Through this presentation of information, this paper contributes to the discussion of using big data as a low cost option for travel model validation.},

abstract = {As  cities  worldwide  aim  to  increase  the  presence  of  the  bicycle  as  a  legitimate  mode  of  urban transportation, the perception of danger plays a significant role in deterring new potential users. In Montreal, Canada bicycle users claim to perceive intersections with bidirectional cycle tracks twice as negatively as similar protected facilities mid-block or intersections with painted bicycle lanes. This study aims to understand this negative perception through a fine-grained analysis and observation  of the  interplay  between  the  built  environment  and  bicycle  user  behaviour at  these intersections. Using The  Desire  Lines  Analysis tool   pioneered   by   Copenhagenize   Design Company, this paper offers recommendations and design interventions for two intersections with bidirectional  facilities  in  the  City  of  Montreal.Results  demonstrate  a  predominant number  of users following the prescribed routes of the built environment through each intersection, but also shine a  light  on  over  a  quarter  of  users  who  do  not. The  trajectories  of  bicycle  users  that  are questionably  legal result  in  observed  conflicts  at  both  bidirectional  intersections.Conflicts  were grouped  into  three  major  observed  themes –counter-flow  interactions,  priority  confusion  and directional awareness. Recommendations in this paper aim to address each one of these observed themes  with  appropriate  designs that are choreographic,  prioritized  and  predictable  for  all  road users.Planners,  engineers  and  urban  designers  can  gain  significant  insight  into  best  practice bicycle  infrastructure  through  techniques  such  as The  Desire  Lines Analysis that observe behaviour and design accordingly.},

abstract = {Most major retailers and organizations strive to provide speedy and efficient delivery of products and explore the opportunities for saving on their last mile delivery costs. Crowd logistics is a subject of high interest in such endeavors. However, at its current state of development and adoption, further research is required to control and improve upon crowdsourced delivery times, risks and costs. This paper demonstrates the potential benefits of crowdsourcing delivery operations exploiting a social network of the customers of a retail store in assisting with the last mile delivery. In this paper, the authors conceive of a social network that connects the customers who are co-workers and/or neighbors of each other. The presented models and analyses are informed by the results of a survey conducted with 101 participants to gauge people's attitudes towards package delivery to and by friends or acquaintances. Relying on the survey responses, a logistic regression model is built to predict the probability of a package being delivered from a store to a customer by the customer's friends. In order to study a potential large-scale impact of such delivery mechanism, the authors set up a simulation environment in TRANSIMS, an activity-based transportation modeling tool with the data collected from a real-world city. The results of the simulated experiments indicate that, by exploiting crowdsourcing, a retailer in a small city can reduce truck mileage by 57{\%}, which is equivalent to reducing delivery costs by 8600USD per day. On average, each delivery adds extra 10 minutes to the regular trip of the party providing the delivery assistance. As a result of this assistance, the expected achieved reduction in pollutants, i.e., NOx, PM2.5 and PM10, emitted by delivery trucks amounts to nearly 55{\%}.},

abstract = {Channelized  right-turn  lanes  (CRTLs)  improve  traffic  flow  efficiency,  enabling  right-turning drivers to bypass traffic lights at signalised intersections (for right-hand drive countries). Many CRTLs provide crossing facilities for pedestrians and cyclists. Previous studies examining the safety performance of CRTLs indicate that they increase overall safety levels but hint that safety issues regarding vulnerable road users exist. This study investigated these issues through site-based observations of yielding behaviour and evaluated the effect of the priority rule on cyclists' safety in two CRTL designs. Four locations in Belgium were selected for video observations: two where the priority rule favoured cyclists and two where motorists had priority. With regard to yielding, four types of crossing behaviour were identified and defined. Independent of the priority rule, cyclists crossed the conflict zone first in most interactions without taking the initiative tocross first. Underlying reasons for motorists willingly giving away their right-of-way could not be determined, but possible courtesy or fear of inflicting injuries at vulnerable road user types might be at hand. A safety evaluation was performed using two traffic conflict indicators (TTC{\textless}sub{\textgreater}min{\textless}sub{\textgreater}and the TA value). High correlations between the two indicators were found (rd²{\textgreater} 0.83), but no conclusions about the safest priority rule for cyclists could be drawn. The results hinted, however, that locations with motorist priority and crossings from right to left (from the driver's point of view) yielded the highest number of safety critical events.},

Allocating frequencies of bus services in a city network is a multi-criteria problem that typ-3 ically considers the operational costs, the passenger demand coverage and the service reliability. 4 In this study, the tactical frequency setting problem is formulated with the explicit consideration 5 of operational variability issues for mitigating the adverse effects of demand and travel time vari-6 ations experienced during bus operations. The proposed bus frequency setting model considers 7 the demand, headway and travel time variations at every section of each bus route for different 8 times of the day, as well as operational costs and fleet size constraints. We formulate the prob-9 lem as a non-linear discrete programming problem with non-linearity also in the constraints and 10 introduce a solution method based on Branch and Bound and Sequential Quadratic Programming. 11 The performance of the proposed approach is tested using data from seventeen central bus lines 12 in Stockholm. Experimental results demonstrate (a) the improvement potential of the base case 13 allocated frequencies; (b) the sensitivity of different criteria, such as passenger demand coverage, 14 to frequency allocation changes and (c) the accuracy of the proposed solution method compared to 15 heuristic approaches.},

abstract = {An indispensable issue in contemporary research on risk-taking by young drivers is the parents' influence on their offspring's driving behavior. The current study measures the influence by using a risk index of parents' driving behavior from in-vehicle data recorders together with young drivers' self-reported answers to a set of questionnaires. Both parents and young drivers also participated in one of four intervention program groups to enhance safe driving. The aim of the current study was to assess the contribution of parents' driving behavior, participation in the intervention, and teen drivers' attitudes towards accompanied driving as measured six months after licensure, to the reported risky driving of the young drivers fifteen months after receiving their driving license. The data consist of a sample of 78 parent-young driver dyads who were assigned randomly to one of three intervention groups (receiving different forms of feedback) or a control group (with no feedback). Findings indicate that the feedback and training to the parents intervention group, as well as parents' risky driving events rate, were positively associated with the risk scores of the young drivers. Also, lower perception of accompanied driving as enabling a sense of relatedness with parents, and higher negative perceptions of this period, were related to higher risky driving scores among young drivers over a year after licensure. The results highlight once again the importance of parents' behavior and relationships with their offspring as key concepts in moderating risky driving among young drivers. Practical implications for road safety are discussed.},

abstract = {The collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian usually ends in injury or the death of the pedestrian. Sometimes pedestrians put themselves in danger by engaging in risky and unsafe behaviors. While crossing the streets, pedestrians may get into collisions through inaccurate judgments about the gap between themselves and an approaching vehicle. The aim of the current study is to investigate and identify factors affecting on pedestrians' risk intensity based on selected critical time to the collision. An observational survey of road crossings was conducted at six intersections located in Qazvin city. In both signalized and unsignalized intersections, time to collision of 800 pedestrians was recorded in each crossing lane. Using the cumulative percentage graph of recorded TTC, a ranking pattern for pedestrian risk condition has been proposed. Using an ordered logit model, the risk-taking behavior of pedestrians has been modeled based on their risk intensity. Results of this study showed that the average TTC chosen by pedestrians crossing intersections is about 6.2 seconds. Among individuals in the survey, 54{\%} of men and 39{\%} of women took risks by accepting TTC less than 3 seconds (critical TTC). It is also indicated that factors such as accompanied pedestrians, dressing type, pedestrian speed, crossing type, speed of approaching vehicles, and curbside parking have significantly affect pedestrians risk taking behaviors or selecting time to collision. Elasticity analysis showed that the pedestrian speed and TTC in the second lane are the most effective variables in the risk taking of pedestrians.},

abstract = {This paper examines the dynamic user equilibrium of the morning commute problem with ridesharing program. Commuters simultaneously choose departure time from home and commute mode among three roles: solo driver, ridesharing driver, and ridesharing rider. Given a combined time-based and distance-based compensation scheme, a time-varying  compensation scheme is proposed in order to maintain a positive ridesharing ridership at user equilibrium. When the price charged per time unit is higher than the inconvenience cost per time unit perceived by the ridesharing drivers, the ridesharing participants will travel at the center of peak hours and solo drivers will travel at the two tails. Within the feasible region with positive ridership, the ridesharing program can reduce the congestion and all the commuters will be better off. To achieve system optimum (SO), a time-varying toll combined with a flat ridesharing price is derived to eliminate queuing delay. Under SO toll, the ridesharing program can attract more participants and the commuters are more tolerant to the inconvenience caused by sharing a ride at SO because of the lower travel time. Compared with no-toll equilibrium, both overall congestion and  individual travel cost are further reduced at SO.},

abstract = {A monitoring system of the perceived quality of transport services at the city level is proposed, based on a set of 92 indicators covering different travel modes and considering the viewpoint of different groups. Special emphasis is given to public transport, bicycles and pedestrians and to travelers with special needs (e.g. commuters, visitors, mobility challenged or communication impaired). Indicators are found through Principal Component Analysis from a set of satisfaction ratings elicited through a survey in eight European cities, implemented within the METPEX research project. Benchmarking values are computed for all indicators to provide the analyst with some initial guidance. All indicators are then visualized through a dashboard that can give policy makers a synthetic overview of the main areas where perceived quality and accessibility are above or below average. At the same time, jointly considering indicators from different dimensions of the evaluation exercise (by travel means, by traveler profile, by phase of the journey experience) provides additional insights on specific issues that would be overlooked in a coarser quality assessment activity.},

abstract = {There is increasing concern and interest about the association of cognitive impairments and driving performance among the elderly, and several recent studies have identified significant driving performance deficits in cognitively impaired older people, measured by means of changes in driving simulator metrics. In this paper, it is attempted to reverse the question: can driving at the simulator reveal the presence of cognitive impairments? This question has a two-fold interest: first, driving at the simulator may allow for the detection of subtle changes in driving due to cognitive impairments imperceptible in one's daily routine; and second, driving simulators may have potential of becoming in the future useful tools for the screening of older individuals and assist clinicians both in the medical examination and the advice on whether to continue driving. Data from a large interdisciplinary driving simulator study were analyzed by means of discriminant analysis techniques, in order to classify individuals as healthy or cognitively impaired on the basis of their simulated driving performance. The analysis sample included 86 individuals, out of which 38 patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and 21 patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The results suggest that variables discriminating between healthy and impaired individuals are average speed and headway, lateral position variability, throttle position, reaction time and accident occurrence at incidents. The functions developed correctly classified more than 65{\%} of the individuals, a share that dropped to around 60{\%} when cross-validation analysis was implemented. Overall, although MCI and AD patients had significant shares of misclassified cases, these misclassifications were mostly between the one pathology and the other; very few pathological cases were classified as healthy, and all of these concerned MCI patients. It is indicated that driving at the simulator may under certain conditions assist in the screening for cognitive impairments.},

@inproceedings{Farah2017,
abstract = {Several studies in the literature have indicated that interchanges are the most crash prone areas within the motorway system in terms of the number and severity of accidents. This is because in those areas there is a high level of turbulence resulting from vehicles changing lanes and speed variability. To understand the safety consequences of interchange design (such as: type of connecting ramps, radii and super-elevation of curves, lanes and shoulders' widths), an in depth investigation of driving speed behavior is needed. This requires collecting detailed trajectory data of vehicles driving on different interchanges. This type of data is hardly available, and as a result, there is a lack of such studies in the literature. The main objective of this study is to analyze drivers' speed behavior on different ramps at interchanges, and develop an operating speed prediction model as a function of the road design elements. Trajectory data of free moving vehicles were derived from stabilized video images taken from a camera mounted underneath a helicopter hovering over the studied road areas. Data were collected from 29 different curves from 6 different freeway-freeway interchanges in the Netherlands. The sample included 9 direct connections, 12 semi-direct connections, and 8 indirect connections. The findings show that speeds are affected by several road geometric characteristics of the curves, by driver expectancy and consistency in design, and by the mix of traffic. The developed operating speed prediction models provide designers with tools to estimate the operating speed during the design process.},

abstract = {Police crash reports include useful additional information that is not available in crash summary records. This information may include police sketches and narratives and is often needed for detailed site-specific safety analysis. In addition, some agencies also routinely review police reports to correct miscoded and missing crash types. As a result, safety analysts often spend much of their time to review police reports on a regular basis. However, reviewing police crash reports and recording review information in Florida has not been an easy process. This paper introduces a newly developed web-based system designed for the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to facilitate the process of reviewing police crash reports and recording review results. The system allows projects to be set up for specific study locations and target review questions. The review questions can be set up for different data entry formats, including dropdown list, checkbox, radio button, single and comment box. A user-friendly interface is provided to allow the users to review the police reports specified in a project and to save the review results together with their respective crash records in the database. The results can then be downloaded to a local drive for further safety analysis. The system reduces the police report review processing time by multiple folds and helps cut down on the project backlogs at FDOT safety offices. The system can serve as a prototype and be adapted for other transportation agencies to facilitate their review of police crash reports and collection of safety data.},

abstract = {This paper faces the human factor in driving and its consequences for road safety. It presents the concepts behind the development of a smartphone app capable of evaluating drivers' performance. The app provides feedback to the driver in terms of a grade (between 0 and 10) depending on the aggressiveness and risks taken while driving. These are computed from the cumulative probability distribution function of the jerks (i.e. the time derivative of acceleration), measured using the smartphones' accelerometer. Different driving contexts (e.g. urban, freeway, congestion, etc.) are identified applying cluster analysis to the measurements, and treated independently. Using regression analysis, the aggressiveness indicator is related to the drivers' safety records and to the probability of having an accident, through the standard DBQ - Driving Behavior Questionnaire. Results from a limited pilot test show a strong correlation between the 99th percentile of the jerk measurements and the DBQ results. A linear model is fitted. This allows quantifying the safe driving behavior only from smartphone measurements. Finally, this indicator is translated into a normalized grade and feedback to the driver. This feedback will challenge the driver to train and to improve his performance. The phone will be blocked while driving and will incorporate mechanisms to prevent bad practices, like competition in aggressive driving. The app is intended to contribute to the improvement of road safety, one of the major public health problems. Making explicit and quantifying risky behaviors is the first step towards a safer driving.},

However, the effects are fully proven when no other vehicles, but autonomous vehicles, are on roads. Until then, the roads will be inevitably shared by human driving vehicles and autonomous vehicles. In this situation the driving behavior of the surrounding vehicles must be identified to facilitate safe driving of autonomous vehicles. For this reason, a methodology that can evaluate the driving riskiness from the relative speed of car-following was developed. The relative speed in car-following is shown in wave forms when observed for a certain period of time. These waveforms can be decomposed into harmonics, which are subordinate waves, by performing a spectral analysis using Fourier transform. The components showing the riskiness of following vehicles among these harmonics were derived through a correlation analysis with adjusted time-to-collision (TTC). Consequently, the power spectrum density ratio with a frequency band of over 0.017 Hz was analyzed to have a high correlation with riskiness, and was defined as the risk propensity index. Using the index, autonomous vehicles can analyze the riskiness of the surrounding vehicles. Hence, the selection of safe car-following speed and acceleration is considered, and the gap choice for lane change is possible.},

abstract = {This paper studies intersection signal control in which traffic arrivals from all approaches along with the queues are assumed known. The control policy minimizes the overall intersection delay by deciding the green intervals for signal phases dynamically as driven by real-time traffic but subject to a set of constraints such as min/max green time for each phase. This paper models intersection vehicle delay by assuming continuous vehicle arrival and departure, and presents the optimal condition for green signal switch. Prior to this work, there does not appear to have been a continuous model on optimal control applied to the general intersection. Two numerical algorithms are proposed: optimum based (DORAS) and queue-based heuristic (DORAS-Q) respectively. Numerical tests are conducted via discrete simulation using an actual intersection data covering peak, mid-day and mid-night hours, respectively. Comparison is conducted between actuated, DORAS, DORAS-Q and OPAC III. The tests show that the latter three methods all perform significantly better than the actuated.},

abstract = {One important aspect of roundabout design is the interaction between vehicles exiting the roundabout and pedestrians crossing the exit roundabout leg, as this can result in queuing of vehicle in the circle, as well as have safety implications for pedestrians. This research analyzes roundabout crosswalk spacing as a function of traffic flowrate exiting the roundabout. The shockwave theory is used for developing an analytical procedure for calculating the crosswalk offset from the roundabout circle. A comprehensive microsimulation model encompassing 147 unique intersection condition combinations was run, comparing the standard roundabout design to the proposed crosswalk spacing. The evaluation was performed based on average vehicle delay, average vehicle stops, average vehicle speeds, and average vehicle stop delay. The conditions presented looks at a single-lane roundabout with posted speed limit of 35 mph and circulation speed of 25 mph. The results demonstrated significant benefits from the proposed design, yielding a reduction in average vehicle delay up to 66.2 sec/veh, reduction in average vehicle stops up to 3.1 stops/veh, reduction in average vehicle stop delay up to 21.1 sec/veh, and an increase in average vehicle speed of 1.3 mph. In addition, the proposed increase in crosswalk spacing does result in the increase of the pedestrian walking time, but these increases are acceptable up to 78 ft offset. Findings discussed in this paper supports roundabout crosswalk design should be spaced further than the standard recommended minimum (20 feet), particularly in the case when the exit flowrate is greater than 600 veh/h/lane.},

abstract = {Due to the growing demand for efficient transportation and limited capacity, the performance of the existing infrastructure and traffic control systems need to be optimized in order to control the growing saturation of roads and intersections. This study gives a first indication of the traffic safety and traffic flow implications of the starting amber phase on Belgian traffic signals. Non-Belgian studies reported an increased capacity of intersections after the implementation of the starting amber, but warned for an increase of early departures and violations. During the experiments of this study, forty four participants completed four experimental drives by which a comparison between the conventional traffic light scheme and the starting amber phase was made. This study concludes that a starting amber of 2 seconds has a positive impact on the traffic flow as the driver gains a time advantage of 1.1 seconds compared to the traditional traffic light scheme. Drivers could prepare themselves for the oncoming green phase and started accelerating earlier. Traffic Safety effects were tested by including conflict situations with pedestrians and crossing vehicles, but due to the usage of a driving simulator, no valid results were found. This immediately forms the foundation of further investigation.},

In light of these considerations, the primary objectives of this study were to 5 compare the changes in motor vehicle speeds at different distances from the dwelling 6 bus by applying statistical methods; and to develop a propensity score matching 7 method to evaluate the effects of dwelling buses on the reductions of motor vehicle 8 speeds at stops.

Results of t-tests revealed that the differences 10 in vehicle speeds between locations with and without dwelling buses at stops for near 11 side, mid-block, and far side stops were all statistically significant. The findings 12 demonstrated that the dwelling buses could result in decreasing motor vehicle speeds 13 at the bus stop and in the vicinity of it. In addition, the average effect on treated sites 14 was estimated by averaging the differences over all three types of bus stops. 15 According to the calculations, the estimated treatment effect was 16 (5.5 + 6.5 + 9.5) 3 = 7.2km/h. The results further indicated that the dwelling buses 17 had great impacts on the speeds of motor vehicles with mixed traffic flow at near side, 18 mid-block, and far side stops. Consequently, with the proposed method, it was 19 feasible to evaluate the effects of dwelling buses on motor vehicle speeds at stops.},

abstract = {Low income residents are dependent on fewer travel options and have restricted mobility. The paper analyzed low income commuters' mode choice behavior by using data from an activity-based travel survey in Fushun, China. An integrated choice and latent variable model was presented including the latent attitudes of comfort, convenience, reliability, flexibility, safety and environmental preferences. The inclusion of attitudes enables us to capture unobserved heterogeneity for the choice process with a better understanding of travel demands. Post-estimation of the integrated model was applied to assess the responsiveness of demand for various transportation modes to changes in policy relevant variables. This was typically done by calculating the elasticity and marginal effects of choice probabilities with respect to the relevant attributes of travel demands. The individuals with high comfort preferences are elastic to walking environment and they need solutions for walking experience enhancement. However, travelers claiming for reliability are more likely to travel by public transit and measures specifically being informed of bus real-time operation information are proposed. On the other hand, excellent cycling facilities cater to environmental preferences and “pro-bike” policy implications are therefore provided. Results of these analyses are consequently related to the most effective policies for serving low income commuters' different travel needs. Findings should provide useful information to policy-makers and transportation planners to improve their travel quality.},

abstract = {Pedestrians and motor vehicles are not always in harmony in North American cities which are generally dominated by car traffic. Priority is often given to vehicle level of service, resulting in conditions that are often difficult, if not hostile, to other users like pedestrians. This domination over the street's usage is detrimental to the development in popularity of alternative transportation means, as it deteriorates the walking experience within the cities. News  and  social  media  about  the relationship  between  drivers  and  pedestrians  is  not uncommon,  but  is  that  sensationalism  or  do  pedestrians  in  general  feel  this?  If  they  feel this way, are the problems they note observable? Do those observations confirm or refute those perceptions? This study, which took place in Quebec City, aims at answering that, by focusing on different types of pedestrian crossings, where the paths of both car drivers and  pedestrians  cross  one  another.  With  the  comparison  between  what  is  thought  by pedestrians,  and  what  can  be  observed,  the authors  aim  to  discover  if  there  is  a  problem  in  the pedestrian experience in the city involving the relationship with cars. It serves also to see if the perceptions of pedestrians can be trusted as a reliable source when compared with observable behavior.},

abstract = {As congestion grows in metropolitan areas, agencies tend to utilize managed lanes on their freeway systems. Managed lanes have several forms and names, such as high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, express lanes, and bus-only lanes. Although managed lanes have received significant attention as they increased the overall throughput and improved mobility without adding more lanes, little has been known about their operational capabilities. In addition, calibrating managed lane facilities can be challenging as they do not necessarily follow the same behavior with general purpose freeway lanes. This paper presents an operational analysis of two HOT lane segments located in South Florida. The sites are one-lane and two-lane segments separated by flexible pylons (FPs). The paper includes a macroscopic capacity analysis, and a microscopic calibration of the two sites using VISSIM microsimulation. The research findings assist in determining the capacity and speed-flow relationship of these segments, and also provide guidance for microsimulation model calibration for practitioners. The results of the study indicate that the percent drop in capacity for the one-lane FP site is 7.6{\%} while the flow did not substantially change after the breakdown in the two-lane FP site. The research findings also include guidelines for simulating the breakdown events and calibrating one-lane and two-lane managed lane facilities in VISSIM microsimulation software. The Wiedemann car-following parameters (CC0 = 3.9 ft, CC1 = 1.9 s, CC2 = 26.25 ft, CC4 = −0.35, and CC5 = 0.35) provided the best fit for the one-lane FP site, while the combination (CC0 = 4.92 ft, CC1 = 1.9 s, CC2 = 39.37 ft, CC4 = −0.7, and CC5 = 0.7) parameters is recommended for the two-lane FP site.},

abstract = {There has been a rapid growth in the number of powered two wheelers (PTWs) on Chinese roads in the last decade. PTWs provide a convenient, flexible and affordable mobility solution. They are also considered an environmental friendly alternative to automobiles. Despite these advantages, concerns have been raised regarding the safety impacts of PTWs on China's urban roadways. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety impacts of PTWs at a shared traffic facility in Kunming, China using automated computer vision techniques. The automated approach can overcome the shortcomings of relying on manual observation methods. The study involves the following tasks: (1) to perform a comprehensive traffic conflicts analysis; (2) to analyze the non - conforming behavior of PTWs; (3) to estimate the yaw rate (steering behavior) of PTWs; and (4) to examine the relationship between the detected traffic conflicts and the PTWs traveling behavior. The automated analysis revealed several interesting findings on the PTWs traveling behavior in the shared traffic facility. A considerable number of high severity conflicts involved pairs of traveling PTWs. It was also found that the PTWs are likely to have non - conforming behavior at the facility. In fact, more than half of the non - conforming behavior incidents were related to PTWs involved conflicts. However, the PTWs' yaw rate analysis indicated that not all the PTWs took swerving maneuver when in conflict situations. These findings highlight the common risky travel behavior associated with this new mode of transportation. The findings also demonstrate the bene fits of using video based safety analysis. The automated technology is promising. It is an efficient, scalable and reliable tool that can improve the understanding of traffic safety issues.},

abstract = {A semi-parametric logit-mixed logit (LML) model to specify the mixing distribution of the preference heterogeneity is the recent advancement in logit-type models. LML provides a general specication for many previous semi-parametric and non-parametric models. Addi-tionally, a special form of the likelihood gradient makes LML computationally more ecient than other parametric models. However, the original LML formulation assumes all utility parameters to be random. This study extends LML to a combination of xed and random parameters (LML-FR) and motivates such combination in random parameter choice models in general. We further show that the likelihood of LML-FR specication looses its special properties, leading to a much higher estimation time than that of the original LML speci-cation. In an empirical application about preferences for alternative fuel vehicles in China, estimation time increased by a factor of 15-20 when introducing xed parameters to the LML model. The comparison of the original LML and LML-FR specications with other parametric models indicate that LML-FR model outperforms these parametric models in terms of model-t-criteria (e.g., AIC, BIC, and likelihood), but the same does not hold for the original LML, i.e. when all parameters are assumed random.},

abstract = {Previous work in human-centered design includes development of interfaces that improve driver effectiveness; however, interfaces designed to communicate to pedestrians based on a vehicle's perceived intent are limited. For the present work, we investigated intent communication forautonomous vehicles by comparing the effectiveness of various methods of presenting vehicle-to-pedestrian street crossing information. A prototype forward-facing display was developed for vehicle-to-pedestrian communication, and an experiment was conducted in a naturalistic setting to compare signaling designs using a simulated autonomous vehicle. In the experiment, a van representing an autonomous vehicle presented information to pedestrians informing them when to cross a street. Participants made crossing decisions from two locations, a marked crosswalk and an unmarked midblock location. Individual differences, including age, gender, crossing location and conscientiousness were predictive of safe crossing decisions. 14 Participant response times were analyzed to determine which display types resulted in the fastest and safest decisions. The results suggest pedestrians will rely on legacy behaviors rather than leverage the information on an external display. A large number of participants, however, believe additional displays will be needed on autonomous vehicles. The results of the experiment can be used to help inform future designs for vehicle-to-pedestrian communication.},

abstract = {This article describes a series of studies done at a large truck driver-training centre as part of their on-going cycle of development and implementation of simulator-based training. This project was motivated by the need to accelerate the learning of basic vehicle control skills to allow more time for more safety-critical skills. The first studies focused on gear shifting and the second on backing maneuvres. All the studies measured transfer of driving skills learned in the truck simulator to the real truck. The results show that basic vehicle control skills learned on the truck simulator transferred to real truck and that the learning time required on the truck simulator compared to the real truck was at least equal if not shorter in many cases. A major strength of this project is that it was completely integrated in the normal operations of the training school's program using regular teachers and students. The only non-routine aspects were the extra performance measurements by independent evaluators. Naturalistic studies are prone to confounding factors. Therefore, the consistent evidence of transfer of basic skills from the truck simulator to the real truck across multiple phases with slightly different designs demonstrates the robustness of the findings. Given the success of simulator-based training in aviation, the evidence of successful transfer of training in this study is not surprising. The greater challenge is the future integration of efficient truck driving simulator-based learning into existing training programs to allow additional time to learn more safety-critical driving skills.},

abstract = {1 2 Policymakers predict that autonomous vehicles will have significant market penetration in the 3 next decade or so. One rising market opportunity is the shared autonomous vehicle fleet, which 4 has been shown in several simulation studies to be an effective public transit alternative. In this 5 study, the effectiveness is directly compared to an upcoming transit project proposed in New 6 York City: the Brooklyn-Queens Connector light rail project. An event-based simulation model 7 is developed to compare the performance of the shared autonomous vehicle system against the 8 light rail system under the same demand patterns, route alignment, and operating speeds. The 9 simulation experiments reveal that a shared autonomous vehicle fleet of 500 vehicles of 12-10 person capacity (consistent with the EZ10 vehicle) is needed to match the 39 vehicle light rail 11 system if operated as a fixed route system. However, as a demand-responsive system, a fleet of 12 only 150 vehicles would lead to the same total travel times (22 minutes) as the 39 vehicle fleet 13 light rail system. Furthermore, a fleet of 450 12-person vehicles in a demand-responsive 14 operation would have the same average wait times while reducing total travel times by 36{\%}. 15 Implications on system resiliency, idle vehicle allocation, and vehicle modularity are discussed. 16 17},

abstract = {Grouping is a common phenomenon in pedestrian crowds and group modeling is still an open challenging problem. When grouping pedestrians avoid each other, different patterns can be observed. Pedestrians can keep close with group members and avoid other groups in cluster. Also, they can avoid other groups separately. Considering this randomness in avoidance patterns, we propose a collision avoidance model for two-pedestrian groups. In our model, the avoidance model is proposed based on velocity obstacle method at first. Then grouping model is established using Distance constrained line (DCL), by transforming DCL into the framework of velocity obstacle, the avoidance model and grouping model are successfully put into one unified calculation structure. Within this structure, an algorithm is developed to solve the problem when solutions of the two models conflict with each other. Two groups of bidirectional pedestrian experiments are designed to verify the model. The accuracy of avoidance behavior and grouping behavior is validated in the microscopic level, while the lane formation phenomenon and fundamental diagrams is validated in the macroscopic level. The experiments results show our model is convincing and has a good expansibility to describe three or more pedestrian groups.},

abstract = {2 Many fields of study recognize the interdependent health, environmental and economic benefits 3 of walking. To promote walking in entire populations, measures such as Walk Score{\textregistered} have been 4 developed to classify the walking-friendliness or 'walkability' of places. Yet, high walkability is 5 not always equated with increased walking. We investigate this discrepancy using survey data on 6 pedestrian behavior, a variety of GIS-derived land use and built environment measures of 7 Montreal neighborhoods, and socio-economic characteristics obtained from the 2011 National 8 Household Survey. A descriptive analysis of walking behavior and neighborhood characteristics 9 reveals that some neighborhoods with higher walking rates are characterized by a lower presence 10 of parking lots/setbacks and a greater proportion of on-street tree canopy. Linear regressions 11 predicting walking rates confirm these associations after adjusting for Walk Score{\textregistered} and 12 neighborhood socio-economic characteristics. These findings suggest that more work is needed 13 for nuancing walkability measures, and offers particular insight for health professionals, 14 planners, and engineers looking to promote walking as an alternative and healthier mode of 15 transport. Reducing open space such as parking lots and setbacks and increasing street-level tree 16 canopy are two ways that the urban built environment can be modified to support walking 17 especially in areas with high Walk Score{\textregistered} and low walking rates.},

abstract = {With the growth of interest in the relationships between built environments with physical activity, public health, and pedestrian safety, various efforts have been made to identify and assess physical  disorders  of  the  built  environment.  Traditional assessment  approaches  mainly  rely  on trained  inspectors,  which  require  significant  cost and  time,  and  most  of  these  methods  lack reliability as they depend on subjective judgment to determine conditions of physical environment. In  this  context,  this  study  explores  the  potential  for  using  crowd-sourced  physiological  sensory data from pedestrians (e.g., gait and heart rate data) to identify and assess physical disorders of the built  environment. Though previous  studies  indicate  that humans  present  diverse  physiological responses in their interactions with environment, there is a lack of empirical research exploring the physiological  effect  of  built  environment  on  walking  activity.In  an  experiment  conducted  in a neighborhood of  Lincoln,  Nebraska,  participants  were  asked  to  walk  on  a  pre-defined  path consisting of sixty measurement units. Three types of data (wearable Inertial Measurement Units (IMU), photoplethysmography (PPG), and Global Positioning System (GPS)) were collected for each participant in order to examine the relationship between their physiological responses and the existing physical disorders in the path. The results from this test indicate that the average values of  physiological  responses  of  participants  in  measurement  units  with  physical  disorders  is significantly  different  than  the  average  values  of  physiological  responses  of  participants  in measurement  units  without  physical  disorders.  The  results  of  this  study  will  help  improve  the continuous measurement of physical disorders, thereby enhancing walkability.},

abstract = {1 Safety is one of the most important factors that affects how much, where, and when people cycle. 2 Bicycle safety has become a primary concern across many communities, especially in the context 3 of Vision Zero programs. However, datasets about both perceived and actual cyclists' safety are 4 difficult to collect. More specifically, data related to near-misses or infrastructure problems that 5 may affect bicycle safety are not systematically collected or analyzed. The Oregon Department of 6 Transportation (ODOT) has sponsored a study to evaluate whether crowdsourcing methods could 7 be useful to collect data related to bicycle safety and infrastructure. A result of this project was a 8 smartphone application, called ORcycle, which was developed to crowdsource bicycle travel and 9 safety data in Oregon. There is scant research related to the quality and usefulness of crowdsourced 10 transportation data and to the relationships among safety reports, cyclists' demographics, and 11 roadway environment. This research explores which factors affect the urgency of a perceived 12 safety problem. Results are encouraging; a thorough quality control reveals a very high level of 13 data accuracy. Statistical models produce intuitive results and indicate that users are generally 14 reliable when reporting the urgency of safety and infrastructure issues. Among the demographic 15 variables, cyclists' gender and income levels seem to influence safety reports' urgency and type. 16 Among the traffic and infrastructure related variables, higher traffic volumes and speeds increase 17 the urgency of safety reports, whereas other variables such as long waiting times at traffic signals 18 are associated with less urgent safety reports.},

abstract = {Commuting to work and school can be viewed as an unpleasant and necessary task. However, some people enjoy their commutes, and trip satisfaction can have a positive impact on overall life satisfaction. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between individuals' satisfaction with their commuting trips and their reported overall life satisfaction. This study is based on the results of the 2015/2016 McGill Commuter Survey, a university-wide travel survey in which students, staff and faculty described their commuting experiences to McGill University, located in Montreal, Canada. Using a Factor-Cluster analysis, the study reveals that there is a relationship between trip satisfaction and the impact of commuting on overall life satisfaction. One result of the study shows that cyclists and pedestrians have the highest overall trip satisfaction, report that their life satisfaction is most impacted by their commute, and have the highest overall life satisfaction. Also, for all mode users, one or two clusters exhibit lower trip satisfaction, report that satisfaction with their commute does not greatly influence their life satisfaction, and claim having access to and using fewer modes relative to other users of the same mode. These results, in addition to the results that active mode users have high life and trip satisfaction, suggest that building well-connected multi-modal networks that incorporate active transportation can improve the travel experience of all commuters.},

abstract = {Transfers are a major source of travel time variability for transit passengers. Coordinating transfers between transit routes in real time can reduce passenger waiting times and travel time variability, but these benefits need to be contrasted with the delays to on-board and downstream passengers, as well as the potential for bus bunching created by holding buses for transfers. We developed a dynamic holding strategy for transfer coordination based on control theory. We then obtained the optimal control strategy, where maximum holding time is a function of real-time estimates of bus arrivals and passengers and the uncertainty in these estimates. Total travel time (waiting plus in-vehicle) with the optimal control is found to be globally less than or equal to total travel time without control when uncertainty is bounded. The time savings from transfer coordination increase with the ratio of transferring to through passengers but diminish as uncertainty in the real-time estimates of bus arrivals increases. Field observations at a multimodal transfer point in Oakland show that the proposed control strategy could reduce net transfer delay by 30-39{\%} in a real-world scenario. The data collected also confirm that the upper bound on uncertainty in bus arrivals can be satisfied with existing bus location technology. We conclude with a discussion of complementary measures, such as the provision of real-time information at transfer points and conditional signal priority, which could allow coordination to be applied in more cases.},

abstract = {Automated vehicles and driving assistance systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) are expected to reduce traffic congestion, accidents and levels of emissions. Field Operational Tests have found that drivers may prefer to deactivate ACC in dense traffic flow conditions and before changing lanes. Despite the potential effects of these control transitions on traffic flow efficiency and safety, most mathematical models evaluating the impact of ACC do not adequately represent this process. This research aims to identify the main factors influencing drivers' choice to resume manual control. A mixed logit model that predicts the choice to deactivate the system or overrule it by pressing the gas pedal was estimated. The dataset was collected in an on-road experiment in which twenty-three participants drove a research vehicle equipped with full-range ACC on a 35.5-km freeway in Munich during peak hours. The results reveal that drivers are more likely to deactivate the ACC and resume manual control when approaching a slower leader, when expecting vehicles cutting in, when driving above the ACC target speed, and before exiting the freeway. Drivers are more likely to overrule the ACC system by pressing the gas pedal a few seconds after the system has been activated, and when the vehicle decelerates. Everything else being equal, some drivers have higher probabilities to resume manual control. The authors conclude that a novel conceptual framework linking ACC system settings, driver behavior characteristics, driver characteristics and environmental factors is needed to model driver behavior in control transitions between ACC and manual driving.},

@inproceedings{Karamanis2017,
abstract = {In the past ten years, the popularity of car sharing schemes has been growing rapidly. Depending on service policies, a customer might be required to return the vehicle to the same location or a different one. The latter type of service is termed as one-way car sharing since the client is not required to make a return trip to leave the vehicle. It is expected that the car sharing companies will start offering autonomous vehicles in their fleet in the future, in line with the growth of investment in autonomous cars in the automotive industry. Fleet management of autonomous vehicles is, therefore, an area which could be explored to devise and offer solutions to companies regarding autonomous vehicle applications. This paper explores the implementation of an approach with a mixed-integer programming (MIP) algorithm which is inspired by one-way car sharing schemes, to offer assistance on strategic decisions such as fleet size, depot location, and number, as well as depot capacity for shared autonomous vehicle (SAV) systems within cities. The proposed model uses stochastic demand based on expected origin and destination (OD) matrices for a modified version of the Sioux Falls network, incorporates relocations to serve demand and is subject to charging and maintenance constraints. The results show that the proposed model could potentially be used in larger networks, with expected demand of trips to be used as a relocation strategy.},

abstract = {Understanding the motivators of habitual travel behaviour is essential to design effective transport policies for promoting and maintaining sustainable travel trends. This study focuses on enhancing the framework for representing habit formation as a feedback-based recurrent learning process by incorporating the ERG model of human needs and the Theory of Planned Behaviour. The proposed approach reveals the socio-ecological motivators for habit formation and their association with travel satisfaction and higher frequency of travel mode choice. A large-scale survey of commuters in the Greater Copenhagen Area and structural equation modelling validates empirically the proposed framework. The Greater Copenhagen area represents a region where transit, bicycle and car have each large modal shares, hence enabling to validate the approach in a multi-modal environment. The results confirm the hypothesis of feedback-based habit formation derived from recurrent choices and satisfying functional, relatedness and growth needs. Higher satisfaction relates to higher travel mode use frequency, which in the study area is greater for bicycle and car compared to transit. Higher bicycle satisfaction relates positively to cycling self-concepts and self-efficacy and negatively to car self-concepts. Greater car use satisfaction increases with car self-concepts and transit use difficulties, and decreases with functional difficulties in car use and better cycling self-efficacy. Higher transit satisfaction mainly relates to experiencing difficulties with other modes.},

abstract = {Advanced vehicle safety technologies have made rapid and striking market penetration in the U.S., European, and Asian fleets over the past few years. However, little is known on driver understanding and knowledge of these technologies. These advanced vehicle safety technologies not only have the ability to alert the driver of hazards and lapses of attention but, in some instances, intervene to prevent or lessen the severity of a crash. If drivers do not accurately understand a technology's purpose, abilities, or limitations, it's questionable whether the full safety benefit can be realized, resulting in an overall safer environment. This paper reports the results of the Vehicle Technology Owner Survey, which sought to measure and compare owner understanding of technologies by targeting 2014 model year vehicle owners with at least one of the advanced vehicle safety technologies. The survey, which served as a complement and successor to the National Survey of Consumer Driving Safety Technologies, collected more than 200 responses on owners' knowledge levels of and motivation and ability to seek out information on vehicle safety technologies, as well as recall of vehicle safety campaigns. Results suggested differences in knowledge levels between groups owning varying levels of advanced vehicle safety technologies.},

abstract = {The demand for electric vehicles (EV) is accelerating and is projected to be a significant method of personal transportation. The gradual divestment of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles compounds the growth of battery based propulsion. The intent of this research is to explore if and how the usage of EVs could impact a commuter's travel behavior and encourage drivers to maximize energy efficiency (eco-driving). A travel survey was conducted over a three month period which includes questions regarding a traveler's daily driving habits, preferences of route choices, and opinions of recently introduced vehicle technologies. Through comparing these driving habits of EV and ICE drivers, it is shown that EV drivers are more likely to identify as ecologically conscious (eco-spirited). The research team tested the theory that EV usage could encourage lower travel speeds and less aggressive accelerating/decelerating events. The data suggests that EV drivers identify environmental and gamification techniques as significant eco-driving motivators. Perhaps the most noteworthy finding is the average EV commuter's willingness to increase daily travel times for greater energy efficiency. The increase in travel time was even more pronounced when a fully autonomous mode of travel was suggested for daily use. The eco-spirited qualities of EV drivers have other positive ecological benefits that further differentiate them from the conventional petroleum based mode of personal transportation.},

abstract = {1 Signalized intersections are major locations of congestion and delay in a corridor. Accurate esti-2 mation of capacity at the signalized intersection is important to ensure optimal signal timings that 3 minimize delay. Mixed traffic is characterized by the presence of diverse vehicle types, each hav-4 ing its own static and dynamic characteristics. This gives way to behaviors typical of mixed traffic 5 like weak lane discipline, initial surge in vehicle discharge, etc. The discharge during green time 6 varies from cycle to cycle due to these characteristics, making it difficult to identify a prolonged 7 steady flow. In order to address the effect of mixed traffic, the study proposes the development of 8 passenger car units (PCU) that are able to explain the effect of diverse vehicle type. The proposed 9 model brings the flow during saturated period as close as possible to the ideal saturation flow by 10 minimizing the associated error. The saturation flow and values of PCUs are simultaneously ob-11 tained using the model. The mathematical properties of the model is studied and illustrated with a 12 numerical example. The model is then used to obtain the saturation flow and PCUs from field data 13 collected from five different approaches. The performance of the model is validated by comparing 14 the computed delay and the delay observed from the field. Good agreement to the results indicate 15 the efficiency of the model, and paves way to improved signal design computation.},

abstract = {The concept of shared space removes strict priority and right-of-way rules among different modes of users, and has an enormous impact on current traffic facilities and operations. In intersection, the interactions between turning vehicles and bicycles occur for similar reasons as in shared space that non-strict and mixed priority lead behavior to a dynamic decision process with two-dimensional feature. Most of current microscopic simulation software are lane-based and insufficient for agents' flexible movements, thus it is necessary to recur vehicle behaviors via numerical simulation model. This paper presents a two-dimensional simulation model based on social force model and aims to reproduce right-turn vehicle's real behavior under the influences of conflicting bicycles in intersection. A simulation framework has been proposed by accommodating vehicular preemptive/yielding decision model, conflict avoidance strategy and a modified social force model to execute predicted behavior. A contrasting analysis of trajectory, speed, travel time and PET distribution from simulation and real data are presented to evaluate the performance of presented model. The results show that simulation data matches empirical data commendably and indicate validity and applicability of proposed model, which further provides an elementary tool to model heterogeneous flow and improve traffic safety on two-dimensional space.},

abstract = {A logistics park is an exactly delimited domain having a large space to efficiently and effectively organize, manage, and ship goods. The facility layout problem in a logistics park is concerned with determining the proper physical organization of a number of interacting functional areas. It differs from traditional facility layout problems in the context of split lines – railways or highways – which may cross a logistics park and partition it into several parts. Logistics parks also commonly have an irregular shape instead of a rectangular shape. These additional features make the facility layout problem in a logistics park complex and require explicit modeling. This research proposes two mathematical programming models to obtain competitive solutions to the facility layout problem in a logistics park. The first model involves allocating the functional areas into different parts resulting from the given split lines. The second model uses slicing structure technique to determine the final layout of all functional areas. Given that the facility layout problem in a logistics park is NP-complete, a heuristic approach combining improved adaptive genetic algorithm with scatter search is presented. Computational results show that the both proposed models and solution approach are effective and efficient.},

abstract = {To address traffic congestion, two categories of instruments are used: price regulation (for instance, road pricing or congestion tolling) and quantity regulation (credit-based mobility schemes). Al- though the comparison of price and quantity regulation has received significant attention in the economics community, the literature is relatively sparse in the context of transportation systems. This paper develops a methodology to compare the toll and mobility permit instruments using a simple transportation network consisting of parallel highway routes and a public transport alterna- tive. The permits can be traded across roads. The demand for each route is determined by a mixed logit route choice model and the supply consists of static congestion. The comparison is based on the optimum social welfare which is computed for each instrument by solving a non-convex optimization problem involving the mixed logit equilibrium constraints. Equity considerations are also examined. Numerical experiments conducted across a wide range of demand/supply inputs indicate that the toll and mobility permit instruments perform very closely in efficiency terms. The permit system is on average more efficient, but only by a small margin.},

abstract = {Official sources of cyclist safety data suffer from under reporting and bias. Crowdsourced safety data has potential to supplement official sources and to provide new data for near miss incidents. BikeMaps.org is a global online mapping tool that allows cyclists to record the location and details of near misses and collisions they experience. However, little is known about how the characteristics of near miss and collisions events compare. Further, a question remains as to whether the characteristics of crowdsourced collision data are similar to collisions captured by official insurance reports.The authors' objectives are two-fold: 1) to assess similarities and differences in near misses and collisions reported to BikeMaps.org;and 2) to assess similarities and differences in collisions reported to BikeMaps.org and to an official insurance dataset. The authors use logistic regression to first model the odds of crowdsourced near miss compared to collision reports, and second, the odds of crowdsourced collisions compared to official insurance collisions, as a function of incident circumstances. Results indicate higher odds of crowdsourced near misses relative to crowdsourced collision reports for commute trips, interactions with motor vehicles, and in locations without bicycle specific facilities. Additionally, relative to insurance reports, crowdsourced collision reports are associated with peak-traffic hours, non-intersection locations and locations where bicycle facilities are present.These analyses indicate that crowdsourced collision data have potential to fill in gaps in reporting to official collision sources, and also that crowdsourced near miss reporting may be influenced by perceptions of risk.},

abstract = {Supplier selection is considered a critical logistics choice in the emerging agent-based freight transportation models. The outcome of this logistics decision identifies trade relationships between business establishments (agents) and determines commodity flows between production and consumption points in markets. A robust supplier selection model is very important to accurate prediction of supply chains and freight flows between origins and destinations. Various approaches have been used to model supplier selection process. This paper introduces an agent-based computational economics approach for supplier selection problem. The proposed model combines behavioral science with computational methods to model economic processes in forming supply chain and to capture both behavioral and economical aspects of supplier selection problem. The model uses results of literature to determine a system for suppliers and buyers preferences in forming supply chain and applies a cutting-edge market-clearing algorithm, developed by Roth and Peranson, to match best supplier-buyer pairs and allocate commodity flows between them. The proposed model is implemented in a behavior-based supply chain and freight transportation model for the Phoenix and Tucson megaregions.},

abstract = {In an urban rail transit line, trains running during the initial operation period are served by rolling stocks parked at depots. Hence, before the operation period, rolling stocks consecutively leave the depots, and quickly run without passengers to the origin station of their served trains using either a direct route or an indirect route via a switch station. The authors investigate the rolling stock deadhead routing problem in an urban transit line with multiple line plans, multiple depots and multiple rolling stock types. Given the rolling stock circulation plans, the problem is to identify a deadhead route for the rolling stock required by the trains running during the initial operation period. By pre-generating all candidate direct and indirect deadhead routes in a polynomial way, the authors formulate the problem as a mixed integer linear programming model to minimize the total deadhead mileage. The size of the model is polynomial with respect to the numbers of depots, switch stations and trains, with which large-scale problem instances can be quickly solved to optimality by commercial optimization solvers on a personal computer. Finally, a real-world case from the rail transit line 3 of Chongqing in China is used to test the proposed method. Computational results demonstrate that  the authors' optimization method is better than the empirical method used in practice in terms of solution quality. Meanwhile, opening closed switch stations and prolonging the depot departure period are potential to further decrease the total deadhead mileage.},

This system operates  in a connected vehicle environment, which includes pedestrian-to-infrastructure (p2i) and pedestrian-to-vehicle (p2v) wireless communications,generally called p2x. The location-based system may be  especially  beneficial  to  differently  abled  pedestrians,  including  blind  or  visual  impaired pedestrians,  which  would  benefit  from  active  support  to  safely  cross  the  street  at  a  signalized intersection.  This  can  be  achieved  by  means  of  effective  and  timely  indications  about  roadway geometry  and  traffic  signal  status provided to the pedestrians  through an application  on a smartphone.A method to estimate a pedestrian's position is presented in this paper. The algorithm is based on integrating MapMatching and an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) in a connected vehicle environment to provide precise location information. The algorithm is based on an assumption that pedestrians generally approach an intersection by first walking on the sidewalk and then enter the crosswalk at signalized intersections. The results show that the location algorithm can accurately estimate a pedestrian's position for use in p2x applications.},

Evidence on how personal attitudes and commute behaviors vary across various neighborhoods types is presented. 9 attitudinal components created using Principal Component Analysis based on 27 bicycle-specific attitudinal survey questions capture detailed attitudes and perceptions of campus commuters. Discrete neighborhood typologies are generated based on land-use and built environment indicators, including population and employment densities, housing units and types, median household income and street intersection density. Binary probit regression models that incorporate sociodemographic, attitudinal and neighborhood factors are estimated to analyze the effects of attitudes and neighborhood environments after accounting for self-selection effects. The models reveal the varying tendencies towards bicycling commute among people with different attitudes and neighborhood settings and point out the effects of residential self-selection. The results confirm that any modelling approach that focuses on bicycling choice should address attitudinal factors, neighborhood characteristics and residential self-selection.},

abstract = {Federal, state, and local transportation and recreation agencies, private foundations, and nonprofit organizations have invested billions of dollars in multiuse urban trails over the past thirty years. Trail managers and advocates need data about factors that affect trail use to manage these trails effectively. Many studies have documented the effects of weather on bicycling and walking, but most of these studies have focused on samples of individuals or traffic counts from a single facility, city, or region, or on population subsamples such as bicycle commuters. Studies that compare the effects of weather simultaneously on both bicyclists and pedestrians on the same types of facilities in different regions of the United States have not been published. This paper makes two contributions to the literature on non- motorized traffic monitoring and trail management. First, the authors report trail traffic monitoring results for 29 monitoring stations on multiuse trails in 14 cities in the United States, including locations in each of general climate regions and zones classified by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the U.S. Department of Energy. The monitoring results include estimates of annual average daily bicyclists (AADB) and annual average daily pedestrians (AADP) for the period, July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. Second, the authors present a set of econometric models that summarize the effects of variation in temperature, precipitation, wind speed, dew point, and hours of daylight on daily bicycle and pedestrian trail traffic volumes. They compare regional elasticities for each weather variable for both bicyclists and pedestrians. Their results show that bicyclists and pedestrians on the same trails respond differently to variations in weather and that the responses of both bicyclists and pedestrians to these variations also vary regionally. Transportation planners and trail managers can use these results to assess the effects of weather on trail traffic throughout the United States.},

Data are collected in Concordia University, Montreal, Canada. Working with a limited set of information, the authors tried to characterize the different pedestrian activity patterns in an analytic way without the prior knowledge of the different locations covered by the WiFi connection data. The goal of this research is to develop an analytical tool that is spatially transferable to different facilities. Moreover it is able to distinguish the main pedestrian activity patterns by looking at the WiFi network logs only. The methodology is based on the identification and generation of pertinent variables for data clustering and time-space activity identification. A K-means clustering algorithm is then used for the construction of a set of 6 activity patterns associated with activities in a campus context. The authors then discuss a few potential additional applications by analysing the inter-access point behaviour that WiFi connection data offer, as well as the challenges caused by space-time inaccuracies.},

abstract = {An increasing number of papers are focusing on integrating psychological aspects into the typical discrete choice models. The majority of these studies account for several latent effects, but they mainly focused on attitudes, perception, and norms. In this paper the authors contribute to the literature in this field by accounting for the full psychological effects as implied in the extended Theory of Planned Behavior. In particular, the authors study the effect of the intention as mediator between the latent elements and the actual behavior, while attitude, the social norms, and the perceived behavioral control affect the intention to behave in a given way. The authors apply a Hybrid Choice Model to study the departure time choice. For this, data from Danish commuters in the morning rush hours in the Greater Copenhagen Area were used. The authors found that accounting for the intention to arrive at work on time is significant, and that the lower level mediators also had a significant influence on the intention. Furthermore, the Attitude toward short travel time was also significant in deciding when to depart for work. Finally, the authors tested how the hybrid choice model performed in some forecasting scenarios. They found that the substitution pattern is indeed different across groups of individuals with varying intention level towards being at work on time. However, at this point the full repercussions of including latent variables in forecasting scenarios are still unclear.},

abstract = {Peer-to-peer (P2P) carsharing differs substantially from other models of carsharing in that there are two distinct sets of consumers within the service: those who rent the vehicles (renters) and those who put their vehicles up for rent (owners). The members of the service are providing the supply as well the demand. This paper uses data from P2P carshare owners and renters in Portland, OR to explore factors that influence their levels of participation, measured by how often renters rent vehicles and how often owners' vehicles are rented out. The findings can shed light on the potential for P2P services to meet public policy objectives. The authors' data indicate that demographics such as age, gender, and income, while a factor in initially signing up for P2P carsharing, are only weakly related to how much people use the service once they join. Vehicle ownership has a positive relationship with level of participation for owners and a negative relationship for renters. Renters who have more positive attitudes towards non-auto travel modes participate at a higher rate (likely tied to vehicle ownership), while for owners attitudes towards driving may be more influential. Owners who participates more exhibited greater changes in their travel behavior, such as driving less overall, using other modes more, and driving on different days. Using this exploration of P2P carsharing owners and renters and their levels of activity, the authors propose an initial model to help guide future research.},

This study specifically investigated the evacuation behavioral responses under hurricane conditions. The study aimed to explore the association between contributing factors and the evacuation decision choices as well as evacuation destination choices. Unlike previous studies that modeled each response behavior separately, this study proposed to use the structural equation modeling approach to examine the interrelationship between response behaviors. A case study was performed with the data set from a survey conducted in New Jersey. With Bayesian estimation approaches, the proposed structural equation models were estimated, and the effect of each predictive variable was captured.

For the ex-ante assessment of road infrastructure investments or ITS implementations, models to forecast the impact of different roadway and control conditions on travel time reliability are required. The paper introduces an analytical model to estimate travel time reliability as a function of the volume-to-capacity ratio. In the model, the standard deviation of congestion-elated travel time losses is used as reliability measure. The model functions were derived by a simulation-based analysis of traffic flow on 50 freeway sections in Germany. As a result, correlations between the volume-to-capacity ratio and the standard deviation of travel time losses were developed. The model functions were prepared in a form which is utilizable in different applications.},

abstract = {Metropolitan areas in the U.S. have become increasingly polycentric. Large employment subcenters have emerged outside of central cities, competing against the traditional city center for labor and businesses. The existing literature on land use and transportation focuses on passenger travel, providing little insight into the impact of polycentric metropolitan development patterns on freight activity. In this study, we use the Los Angeles region as a case study to examine the relationship between urban spatial development patterns and freight travel. Using the National Employment Time Series (NETS) data, we identify employment subcenters in metropolitan Los Angeles. We characterize freight activities associated with the subcenters using data from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). We develop a regression model that estimates freight activity as a function of geographic characteristics, such as whether a location is in an employment subcenter, measures of nearby employment, access to the highway network, and proximity to intermodal freight facilities. The results indicate that employment is an important driver of freight activity; however, employment subcenters have an independent effect on freight activity. The results of this study suggest that further research on urban spatial structure and freight activity should assess the effects of employment subcenters and how their particular employment composition and characteristics are associated with freight activities at the metropolitan level. Such an approach would lead to more precise policy recommendations for urban goods movement.},

abstract = {Real-time data collection and monitoring of pedestrian networks is an important topic in research and practice. A real-time pedestrian monitoring system should be able give information about volumes (counts or flows) and speeds for all links of interest. There are many applications for pedestrian network monitoring such as counting and extrapolation, activity modeling, management of public areas like airports, train and metro stations, malls. Moreover, there are some more specific applications like security checks, waiting time and travel time in public hubs like airports. There are some available technologies to get count data at specific locations; however these types of technologies cannot provide detailed data of pedestrian walking patterns and speeds. To achieve this, the system should be able to collect anonymous data of pedestrians in a network. In recent years, Bluetooth technology has widely been used in studies to capture the unique Media Access Control (MAC) addresses of Bluetooth devices in order to track them throughout a network to assess their activity patterns. Because of the security and power consumption concerns and less applications due to new wireless protocols like WiFi, the penetration of this technology is getting smaller in smartphones. Hence, an integrated WiFi-Bluetooth system was designed in order to take advantage of the benefits of WiFi technology like higher penetration rates between users of smartphones. Some criterion like travel time and detection rate are used in this paper to evaluate the performance of the developed system. The primary results show high detection rates of WiFi system as well as, a high correlation between the number of detections between sensors and ground truth data. These features can be helpful for extrapolation and estimation of pedestrian flow furthermore more accurate travel time and waiting time estimations.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2016, National Research Council. All rights reserved.As of January 2015, the new maximum limit of fuel sulfur content for ships sailing within emission control areas has been reduced to 0.1{\%}. A critical decision for ship owners in advance of the new limits was the selection of an abatement method that complies with the regulations. Two main options exist: investing in scrubber systems that remove sulfur dioxide emissions from the exhaust and switching to low-sulfur fuel when sailing in regulated waters. The first option would involve significant capital costs, while the latter would lead to operating cost increases because of the higher price of the fuel used. This paper presents a literature review of emissions abatement options and relevant research in the field. A cost-benefit methodology to assess emission reduction investments from ship owners is also presented. A study examined the effects of recent drops in bunker fuel price to the payback period of a potential scrubber investment. The results show that lower prices would significantly delay the payback period of such investments, up to two times in some cases. The case studies present the emissions generation through each option for representative short sea shipping routes. The repercussions of low-sulfur policies on large emission reduction investments including cold ironing are examined, along with implications of slow steaming for their respective payback periods. Recommendations are made for research in anticipation of future regulations and technological improvements.},

abstract = {This paper discusses a dynamic framework and methodology to aid in selection and deployment of Active Traffic Management (ATM) strategies on freeway facilities. The dynamic methodology builds on the current freeway facilities methodology contained in the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual. The framework simulates near real-time operations and provides functionalities similar to those at Traffic Management Centers. Interventions by an “operator” are allowed to take place at the conclusion of each 15 minute analysis period. At each intervention, ATM strategies' options are made available to be implemented in the next analysis period or beyond. The framework accounts for two types of users: Administrators and End Users. The Administrator is responsible for creating the base facility and defining the scenario presented to the End User. The End User is responsible for deploying or adjusting the selected ATM strategies at each intervention based on his/her assessment of the current and past operational conditions of the facility. At the end of each complete analysis run, the End User can readily evaluate the effectiveness of the decisions made during the study period based on a host of generated performance measures. It is envisioned that this tool can be used as a training mechanism for students, planners, and Traffic Management Center (TMC) operators to better equip them on the use of ATM and their potential effectiveness to improve freeway operations. The framework also can serve as a springboard to incorporate predictive models of recurring and non-recurring events in future releases, enabling a more pro-active approach to implementing ATM strategies.},

abstract = {Understanding the makeup of the population in terms of how people view bicycling can be an important tool in planning bicycle facilities and programs. The City of Portland Bicycle Coordinator Roger Geller proposed a typology which placed people into four types: “strong and fearless,” “enthused and confident,” “interested but concerned,” and “no way no how.” This paper asks how applicable the typology is nationally, and explores motivating factors, barriers and the appeal of various bicycle facility types for each type of cyclist or potential cyclist. This paper is a follow up on a previous paper which documented an effort to test Geller's typology using Portland data. Here, the authors use a sample of 3,000 adults living in the 50 largest U.S. metropolitan areas. Based on respondents' stated level of comfort bicycling in different environments, their interest in bicycling, and recent behavior, they estimate that about one-third of adults are in the no way no how group and about half are interested but concerned. The distribution is similar to the findings for Portland. There were several demographic differences, with women less likely to be enthused and confident or interested but concerned. Aside from the no way no how group, there were no differences in whether respondents had ridden a bike at all in the past 30 days. Differences emerged in where they bicycled and how often. The interested but concerned were least likely to bike for transportation and rode less frequently. Of those who had not ridden in the past 30 days, 46{\%}-56{\%} did not have a bike to ride. Other barriers included needing a vehicle for work/school or other reasons, places being too far, too few bike lanes/trails, and traffic.},

abstract = {Increasingly aggressive weather events, such as hurricane-driven storm surges, threaten surface transportation systems and motivate defensive actions, including hardening. Decisions about the design and scale of hardening investments are informed by meteorological records. Historically based probabilities of severe storms are used in practice to define expected values of the intensity of weather assaults (e.g., the 100-year storm) and then to select defenses. The prospects of climate change and rising sea level suggest that assuming weather events are stationary may present added risks to surface transportation infrastructure, particularly in coastal environments. This paper proposes a dynamic, learningbased investment strategy, similar to the concept of real options, that updates estimates of storm surges on the basis of experience and recommends incremental hardening investments when observed trends indicate that additional defense is warranted. Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare and evaluate static (expected value-based) and dynamic investment strategies in the context of storm intensity patterns that are (a) known, (b) incorrectly estimated, and (c) nonstationary, with growing intensity. Results suggest that when the future is well described by past experience, the static, once-and-done decision strategy works well, but when the underlying storm generation process is unknown, or when it is changing (growing) in intensity, the learning-based dynamic strategy is especially advantageous. These results underscore the importance of flexibility in designing storm protection, of tracking weather events closely to detect emerging trends, and of data-driven decision strategies. This dynamic approach to decision making under uncertainty can be applied to other sources of uncertainty, for example, demand estimates.},

abstract = {This paper presents a simple method to develop the capacity distribution of a freeway bottleneck from field sensor observations. The approach clearly distinguishes between capacity, a spatial attribute of the bottleneck geometry and period of observation and the observed pre-breakdown flow rate, which tends to be correlated with the configuration of the traffic volume profile level over time. The estimated capacity distribution is shown to be independent of time of day. The relationship between the true capacity distribution and pre-breakdown flow rate distribution is best characterized by a non-homogeneous geometric distribution. By testing the hypothesis on several real world facilities, the proposed relationship is demonstrated, and a parameter defined as the ‘Acceptable Breakdown Rate' is used to extract a single capacity value from the distribution. All flow rates are aggregated in 15 minute intervals. For Highway Capacity Manual analysis purposes, a breakdown rate of 15{\%} is proposed, although the method is not bound by a single acceptable value. By applying the acceptable breakdown rate estimation method on four real world facilities in three states, capacity values that varied between 1900 to 2200 pc/h/lane were estimated. The findings of this research are proposed for incorporation in the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 update.},

To explore that question in depth, interviews were conducted with ten people who use Bay Area Bike Share (BABS) in the downtown area of San Jos{\'{e}}, California. The interviews covered how people use of the bicycle-sharing program, their opinions of the downtown, and any possible relationship between the two. Although the paper touches on topics about bikeshare that have been explored in other work, such as safety, economic, and transportation-related impacts of bikesharing, the primary focus of the paper is on how respondents' opinions and attitudes about downtown San Jos{\'{e}} may have changed since they began use of Bay Area Bike Share. Key findings include: • Riders use BABS primarily for commuting, with very few making other types of trips by bikeshare. • Riding BABS has made people more aware of safety issues in downtown San Jos{\'{e}}, especially related to cycling, even though the riders have not personally experienced any safety problems. • Since riders began using Bay Area Bike Share in San Jos{\'{e}}, their opinions of downtown San Jos{\'{e}} have improved. • BABS riders have not frequented new businesses as a result of joining BABS.},

A sample of 3,272 middle and high school students was collected in Tehran. The results of the cross-nested logit model suggest that for people who choose walking, increasing a one percent in home-to-school distance reduces the probability of walking by 3.51 percent. While, this reduction is equal to 2.82 and 2.27 percent as per the multinomial and nested logit models, respectively. This is a direct consequence of the model specification that results in underestimating the effect of distance by 1.24 percent. It is also worth mentioning that, a one percent increase in home-to-school distance diminishes the probability of taking public transit by 1.04 among public transit users, while increases the probability of shifting to public transit from walking by 1.39 percent. Further, a one percent increase of the distance to public transport decreases the probability of students' physical activity, approximately, 0.04 percent.},

A research study recently funded by the SHRP2 Implementation Assistance Program is using SHRP2 data to provide valuable information about how drivers behave under various combinations of vertical and horizontal alignment. In this study, it was necessary to identify the presence and location of vertical curves. The objective of this paper is to present and compare two methods for identifying vertical curves using the SHRP2 RID grade data. Each method is assessed against a hypothetical road with artificially created vertical curves and a section of an actual road in Washington State which contains a ground truth vertical curve inventory. The best performing method used a linear correlation element to detect when a set of road segments formed a vertical curve. This method accurately identified the presence of vertical curves without identifying curves where none existed, although it generally underplayed the length of the curves. This is a promising result, since the objective for the overall safety study was to identify vertical curve locations. This paper demonstrates that there are good options for interpreting the data to identify vertical curves. The development of the linear correlation method represented an advancement over the simplistic difference of average grades. Comparisons to a hypothetical road and a real world road with ground truth proved useful to identify the best performing method and determine the optimal parameters for the method to produce the most accurate results.},

Based on a series of reports published by NADA, this study analyzes the retention rates of selected PEV models and compares them with conventional and HEV models by vehicle size class taking into account federal and state incentives. A new metric for value retention, adjusted retention rate, is calculated as the ratio of resale value to the purchase price minus incentives. Comparing the adjusted retention rates of PHEVs and BEVs with those of ICEVs indicates that PHEVs have a higher retention rate at one year than ICEVs, a similar rate at two years, and a slightly lower rate at three years, and BEVs have a higher retention rate at one to two years, and a slightly lower rate at three years. Factors that influence value retention are discussed. Higher fuel efficiency of PHEVs in hybrid mode and better acceleration performance might improve resale values. HEVs do not lose value as fast as PHEVs or short-range BEVs (electric range {\textless} 100 miles). Sustained, low gasoline prices may hurt the three-year retention rate for the Chevrolet Volt and the Nissan LEAF.},

abstract = {The paper presents a novel computer vision-based traffic surveillance system capable of processing aerial imagery to track vehicles and their movements. The system uses a preprocessed 1-Hz image sequence with a coverage of 64.80 km2 (25 sq mi) from an aerial camera array mounted on an airplane. The unique characteristics of the input data make this work challenging. Heuristic and machine-learning approaches are combined and evaluated to detect and track vehicles for the purpose of collecting speed, density, and volume data for uninterrupted flow corridors, which are useful for big-data monitoring of traffic parameters over an entire 64.80 km2 (25 sq mi) area with a single sensor. The deep learning combined with speeded up robust features (SURF)-based approach is able to achieve over 94, 93, and 92{\%} accuracies in speed, density, and volume estimates, respectively, on 50 s of data when compared with manually collected ground truth. It has 100{\%} accuracy in measuring level of service (LOS) for the uninterrupted flow facilities tested. These evaluations were conducted for facilities of different levels of congestion as indicated by the different levels of service. With further research, improved preprocessing, and a higher frame rate, the accuracy of tracking vehicles can be improved, which will allow for other potential applications such as identification of erratic drivers and origin-destination studies. {\textcopyright} 2016 American Society of Civil Engineers.},

abstract = {The use of active modes of travel in school trips has sharply declined due to a number of reasons; some of which are rooted in urban design, location of schools, and parental reservations. Thus, policy-makers are keen to find practical ways to promote active modes of travel, particularly walking. This study is an effort to determine a tolerable walking distance for school trips, and to identify factors that make walking trips more reasonable for students. In the vein of understanding the tolerable walking distance, the authors introduced a two-step framework encompassing a random utility method and a hazard-based model. They applied this framework on a set of data that was collected from middle and high school students, in the city of Tehran, Iran. The framework is intended to find a more accurate estimate of tolerable walking distance in school trips by addressing data censorship problems. The hazard-based model showed that 85 percent of students fail to walk when their travel distance exceeds 1,900 meters. In Western countries, some studies have found this distance around 1,500 meters. This study found girls are less likely to walk compared to boys. Furthermore, safety, time, and comfort of the trip turned out to be influential amongst parental objections, such that they decrease the critical walking distance by 18, 13, and 11 percent, respectively.},

abstract = {Gaining worldwide popularity, bike sharing systems have been rapidly expanding and recognized as a strategic tool to integrate public transit and foster sustainable transportation in urban areas. A critical problem for planning and deploying a bike sharing system lies in demand- supply imbalance due to the spatiotemporal dynamics of demand patterns and finite system capacity, which is manifested as the situations of no available bikes to rent and no available docks for bike return at certain popular stations. This study develops a framework for modeling user behavior in response to such situations, particularly emphasizing user's on-site choice behavior and the behavioral aspect related to waiting time if a decision to wait for the next bike/dock is made, which are approached by a discrete choice model and a duration model, respectively. Further, a discrete/continuous process is proposed to address the potential interrelation existing between the choice to wait and the length of waiting time to be endured. Within the developed framework, the models are estimated based on the data collected from an RP-SP survey conducted over YouBike system in Taipei, Taiwan. The estimation results based on the consideration of the discrete/continuous process provide the insights of user's familiarity and uncertainty toward the system, travel situation, or environment and the associated effects on user behavior of a bike sharing system under demand-supply imbalance.},

Despite their growth and increasing fleet sizes, there seems to be no universal design to establish a successful system. Therefore this paper assembles current trends and practices in configurations of existing vehicle sharing systems and emphasizes existing varieties. Further on there are several varying pricing mechanisms utilized in order to optimize revenues within these systems. This paper characterizes applied pricing mechanisms and gives an outline on advantages and drawbacks of these methods. In order to boost comparability, different use cases are illustrated and respective price charges are contrasted. Since established approaches only cover static mechanisms of pricing, this paper proposes a dynamic pricing mechanism for free-floating vehicle sharing in order to increase usage based on local and temporal demand. This mechanism is proposed to encourage further work in the field of dynamic pricing mechanisms in the field of vehicle sharing systems.},

Hence, it is beneficial to simultaneously account for truck facility location design and network expansion decisions to mitigate the additional congestion caused by trucks and facilitate their routing. This paper devel-ops an integrated mathematical model for the facility location design under network routing and congestion constraints. The model determines the optimal number and location of replenishment facilities, minimizes truck routing costs based on the proposed network design, assigns traffic in the network (for both general roadway users and service trucks), and selects candidate links for possible roadway capacity expansion. The model aims to minimize the total cost for new facility construction, truck routing, transportation infrastructure expansion, and transportation delay. A genetic algorithm framework is developed that incorporates a continuous approximation model for truck routing cost estimation and a traffic assignment algorithm. The numerical results show that the integrated solution technique can solve the problem effectively.},

In this study the authors proposed an information feedback system with the assistance of closed-circuit television (CCTV), in which the scenario of a school staircase was modeled, two psychological factors and injury mechanism were considered in a modified social force model for simulating the pedestrian flow on staircase. The authors then simulated the kinds of behaviors affected by the feedback information with different penetration rates in order to evaluate the feasibility of the information feedback system. The results show that lower desired speed behavior with lower penetration rate is not mitigating the forward congestion of the crowd, whereas the high degree conformity behavior is effective in reducing the congestion and preventing stampede. The study suggests that the information feedback system need to be carefully deployed in the staircase environment prior to understanding the relationships between the display information and conformity behaviors.},

abstract = {Bike sharing, as an alternative transportation mode and the solution for first- and last-mile issues in multimodal transportation, has attracted extensive attention in sustainable transportation research community. However, the efficiency of the rebalancing operations in a bicycle sharing system determines its success. Rebalancing refers to the restoration of the number of bikes at a station to a target value using a fleet of vehicle(s). In this study, the authors use a fleet size of one vehicle. The objective of the Static Rebalancing Problem is to determine a sequence of stations as well as the amount of bikes to be picked up or dropped off at each station, with the minimum traveling cost to be visited by a rebalancing vehicle. Multiple visits to a station are allowed, however preemption is not allowed, i.e., stations cannot be used as temporary storage of bikes. In this study, the authors present a hybrid nested large neighborhood search with variable neighborhood descent algorithm for solving the static rebalancing problem. Computational experiments on the 1-PDTSP instances demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms a tabu search algorithm and is highly competitive with exact algorithms previously reported in the literature for solving static rebalancing problems in station-based bike sharing systems. It is able to find new solutions for 58 of 148 instances for which the optimal solution is not known and, on average, is 340 times faster than the exact algorithm that allows preemption and 580 times faster than the exact algorithm that does not allow preemption.},

While much of the problem is linked to China's broader reliance on coal and other fossil fuels across the energy system, road transportation is an important and growing source of air pollution. Here we use an energy-economic model, embedded in a Regional Emissions Air Quality Climate and Health (REACH) integrated assessment framework, to analyze the impacts of implementing vehicle emissions standards (ES) together with a broader economy-wide climate policy on total air pollution in five species and 30 Chinese provinces. We find that full and immediate implementation of existing vehicle ES at China 3/III level or tighter will significantly reduce the contribution of transportation to degraded air quality by 2030. We further show that road transport ES function as an important complement to an economy-wide price on CO2, which delivers significant co-benefits for air pollution reduction that are concentrated primarily in non-transportation sectors. Going forward, vehicle emissions standards and an economy-wide carbon price form a highly effective coordinated policy package that supports China's air quality and climate change mitigation goals.},

abstract = {Due to the relatively low mode share of people who bicycle for transportation in most places in the U.S., a random sample of the population is unlikely to yield enough people who currently bicycle to allow for a fine grained analysis of their behavior or views that can be used to inform policy, planning or engineering decisions. For this reason, many surveys of bicyclists have narrowed the sampling frame, either by intercepting bicyclists as they are riding on a facility or parked at a location, or by soliciting responses from groups of individuals known to ride bicycles (e.g., members of a bicycle organization). Use of these non-probablistic methods make it more difficult to understand whether the sample accurately represents the broader population of people who bicycle. The reliance on convenience sampling has been noted as a limitation in the research assessing the effects of programs and infrastructure on rates of bicycling. This paper compares responses to identical questions asked by convenience and intercept samples of bicyclists. The paper uses data from surveys conducted in five cities as part of a larger evaluation of protected (also referred to as separated) bike lanes in the U.S. The analysis suggests that the use of different sampling methods do result in statistically different responses to identical questions compared in this analysis. In many cases, however, the differences are numerically small and may not have led to different policy or other conclusions.},

A growing body of work suggests that longer data collection periods are warranted to provide improved data for modeling purposes and understanding trends. However, for longer periods of data collection to be successful, all aspects of projects must be implemented with a mindfulness toward the impacts on respondent burden. Scalability is also a challenge when coupled with the demand for accurate GPS data and ever more detailed survey data for modeling purposes. The In the Moment (ITM) Travel Study project, conducted by RSG on behalf of the Madison County Council of Governments (MCCOG) in Anderson, Indiana and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Planning and Office of Transportation Policy Studies, addressed these challenges by fully replacing the traditional telephone and web household travel diary survey experience with smartphone GPS data collection over a seven-day period. The smartphone's sensors passively collected location data (the “where and when” of travel data), while in-app survey questions obtain the remaining essential HTS data elements (the “why, who, and how” of travel behavior). The goal is to prompt respondents to answer these in-app survey questions in close to “real-time” at each trip destination and in a very low burden way, which facilitates the ability to conduct these projects for the longer data collection period.},

abstract = {1 The idea that carrying luggage would have impacts on pedestrian traffic is easily acceptable. 2 However, to what extent the luggage-carrying affects pedestrian traffic has not well been 3 understood yet. This paper selects two pedestrian traffic indicators, i.e., walking speed and space 4 occupation to quantitatively examine the effects of luggage-carrying. Luggage is divided into 5 five levels: none, small, medium, large and trolley case. Then nearly 1,000 speed samples 6 consisting of 22 combinations of luggage-carrying are obtained through video observations of a 7 section of level passageway in Shanghai Metro station. Experimental measurement is also 8 conducted to calculate the space occupation of pedestrians carrying different levels of luggage. 9 By statistical analysis of the observed data, impacts of luggage-carrying on walking speed and 10 space occupation are revealed. Carrying small luggage has little effects on walking speed, 11 however pedestrians with medium, large luggage or trolley cases, walk significantly slower than 12 those without any luggage. On average, compared with no luggage, small, medium, large 13 luggage and trolley case reduce mean walking speed by 2{\%}-3{\%}, 5{\%}-8{\%}, 10-14{\%}, and 3-8{\%} 14 respectively. The effects of luggage-carrying on space occupation are much more striking than 15 those on walking speed. Based on the experimental measurement, small luggage increases the 16 space occupation of pedestrians by 50-100{\%}. Medium and large luggage increases the space 17 occupation by 100-150{\%} and 300-650{\%} respectively. Research results of this paper call for a 18 special attention and appropriate adjustment for planning and designing pedestrian traffic mixed 19 with noticeable amount of pedestrians who carry luggage. 20 Keywords ： Luggage-carrying, impact analysis, pedestrian traffic, walking speed, space 21 occupation.},

At the outset, the paper distinguishes between “bicycle suitability” as an assessment of the perceived comfort and safety of a linear section of bikeway and “bikeability” as an assessment of an entire bikeway-network in terms of access to important destinations. The focus of this paper is the latter. A review of the literature reveals that most of the previous work concerning the quality of bicycle travel deals with bicycle suitability, not bikeability. There is, however, ample research concerning the related concept of “accessibility.” The proposed calculation for bikeability builds upon a common accessibility equation and is demonstrated through a case study involving three different capital investment scenarios. Engineers and planners can follow a similar procedure to help prioritize improvement projects or to communicate the benefits of new projects. The analysis uses a geographic information system.},

abstract = {The integration of mesoscopic and microscopic simulation models provide expanded dimensions of modeling capabilities by taking the strengths of both model resolutions. Many transportation agencies, practitioners and researchers are beginning to see the advantages of using multiple levels of resolution when analyzing corridor specific problems. Mesoscopic models use dynamic traffic assignment to reroute traffic given various traffic conditions. Microscopic models are used to analyze traffic conditions at the individual car or lane level. Models are calibrated and validated using data collected in the field. Most practitioners validate their models to existing conditions and then forecast future conditions to predict traffic congestion. Once simulation runs are finished, results are presented to hosting transportation agencies and the project is completed. Very few practitioners collect future field data and compare it to the simulated forecasts. This sort of reverse model validation is referred to as backcasting. This paper outlines the complete modeling process from model development, conversion, calibration, consistency, validation and ultimately -model backcasting. A case study involving user class restrictions on Interstate 10 in El Paso, Texas was used to analyze how accurate the models were at predicting future conditions. Researcher's simulated truck restricted lanes on the freeway to determine how effective the user class restrictions were on overall traffic speeds and travel times. One year later when the truck lane restrictions were in place, field data was collected to determine how accurate the models were at predicting traffic conditions.

abstract = {The vehicle routing problem (VRP) is a classical problem in logistics that aims to design minimum-cost delivery routes from a centralized depot. A special case of the VRP arises in situations in which the network has a tree structure (TVRP). Such tree networks arise when the cost of road construction and maintenance is much more than the routing cost or when the transportation network consists of a main highway (e.g., Interstate system) and the customer locations are located off the highway. A heuristic for a constrained case of TVRP in which the vehicle fleet is capacitated and heterogeneous is proposed. The heuristic first determines the customers that will be served by each vehicle by use of bin-packing and Lagrangian-based generalized assignment algorithms. The individual vehicle routes are then determined by use of a depth-first search method. A procedure for further refinement of the heuristic solution quality is also described. The heuristic algorithm was implemented on two real-world networks and on randomly generated networks that varied in size from 20 to 120 nodes. The heuristic solution was found to be between 2{\%} and 10{\%} for almost all of the 200 instances tested and took a fraction of the time taken to find the optimal solution.},

abstract = {Winter and adverse weather are mentioned as part of the main deterrence of cycling. However, very little is known about winter cycling practice and its link to both weather and road surface conditions. Despite that cycling research has attracted a lot of attention in the last year, very little empirical evidences have been documented on winter cycling in North American cities. This paper investigates the cycling winter ridership patterns in a set of cycling facilities in three North American cities – Montreal, Vancouver and Portland. For this purpose, a winter cycling retention index is developed and compared across bike facilities in the three different cities, over various winter seasons. Moreover, a winter modeling approach is implemented to empirically quantify the effect of adverse weather conditions on cyclist activity during the winter months in these three cities. Finally, this paper explores the potential effect of winter surface conditions on bicycle ridership in Montreal, Canada. A simple cross sectional analysis in a set of facilities is carried on for this purpose. Among other things, it is found that winter cycling in North American cities like Montreal, Vancouver and Portland is an alternative mode of transportation for an important segment of the population. Among the important weather factors negatively affecting cycling are: high relative humidity with low temperatures, wind speed and precipitation (rain or snow) intensity. The lagged effect of precipitation is also observed in some cases. Sensitivity to weather conditions also varies across cities. Surface conditions also seem to be correlated to cycling retention – higher percentages of cyclists are retained when surface conditions are either “clean and dry” or “bare and wet” compared to snow covered, slushy or icy surface conditions.},

Video data from the first week of driving for each participant was visually scored for all instances of cell phone use. These were divided into cell phone calls (conversations) and cell phone interactions that were not calls (either visual or manual tasks involving the cell phone). 1,382 cell phone conversations and 2,149 cell phone related visual/manual tasks were examined. Participants overall were engaged in cell phone conversation 6.7 percent of all driving time, and were engaged in cell phone related visual/manual tasks 2.3 percent of all driving time. Overall, conversations had a mean duration of 2.6 minutes, and participants engaged in conversations at a rate of 1.5 conversations per hour. Younger drivers were significantly more likely to be engaged in either type of cell phone task than older drivers, and significantly more likely to be engaged in cell phone related visual/manual tasks than middle-aged drivers. Because drivers were more likely to initiate conversations and visual/manual tasks when stopped than at higher speeds, this may suggest a level of self-regulation. Furthermore, it suggests estimates of crash risk that are based on assumptions that behavior observed in stopped vehicles translates to moving vehicles is incorrect, and will result in overestimates of driver engagement in cell phone use.},

abstract = {Recent developments in learning algorithms from the machine learning and operations research communities may offer efficient alternatives for traffic signal control. In this paper two of such strategies, with potential to provide solutions to current limitations of adaptive signal systems, are used to control the traffic signals in an oversaturated network: 1) Q-learning, and 2) an approximate dynamic programming algorithm using a post-decision state variable (ADP). The traffic signal problem is described as a reinforcement learning problem, and formulated as a multi-agent system where an agent (using Q-learning or ADP) controls the signals at a single intersection and has access to the state of neighboring ones. Signals operate on a cycle-free basis and react to current demands in real time. The implementation using a microscopic traffic simulator is described, and results from both training and operational modes are presented in terms of average delay per vehicle, system throughput, and congestion inside the network. Comparisons in the operational mode are made to solutions found by the state-of-practice software TRANSYT7F. Results from a realistic test network shows that the two methods are suitable for controlling the signals in oversaturated conditions by preventing long-lasting queue spillovers and gridlocks. The two methods also compared favorably to results from TRANSYT7F, showing 13{\%} lower average delay and 10{\%} to 12{\%} increased average system throughput. This implementation is a limited version of an ongoing larger effort that is expected to have in the future an explicit coordination strategy and a more extensive set of operating rules.},

abstract = {Calibration of the AASHTO LRFD Code required the statistical parameters of load and resistance parameters. The basic load combination includes dead load, live load and dynamic load. In 1980's, there was no reliable Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) data base and, therefore, the development of live load factors was based on a small scale truck survey. In the meantime, the WIM technology was improved and millions of vehicles were recorded in various geographical locations. The objective of this study is to review the available WIM data of about 35 million trucks and determine the statistical parameters of Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) and live load moment. Moments were calculated for simple spans using influence lines. The span length range is from 30 to 200 ft (9 to 60 m). The Cumulative Distribution Functions (CDF) were plotted on the normal probability paper for an easier interpretation. CDF's of GVW and moments show a considerable variation depending on WIM station location. Maximum expected values of live load depends on the considered time period and, in general, for strength limit states the time periods can be 75 or 100 years, and for service limit states they are much shorter, few days or weeks. Therefore, the statistical parameters are determined for time periods from 1 day through 100 years and for traffic volumes with ADTT from 100 through 10,000. For longer time periods, the results were obtained by extrapolation of the available WIM data. The statistical analysis of moments provides a basis for the development of national live load parameters and live load factors in the bridge design code.  2013 Korean Society of Civil Engineers and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.},

abstract = {In this paper, we are concerned with the space-time inhomogeneity associated with the kinematic wave (LWR) model. The notion of space-time inhomogeneity refers to the fact that governing laws of traffic, essentially dictated by fundamental diagrams (FD), differ from each other in distinct space-time regions. Such a scenario is common when exogenous inputs, e.g. a group of slow moving vehicles, emerge in the modeling process. We will prove the well-posedness of this class of problems. More importantly, we show that if the boundary delineating two neighboring regions is continuous and has bounded speed, this problem can be greatly simplified by introducing a piecewise linear approximation to the boundary. In particular, we utilize the variational formulation of kinematic wave model and prove that this approximation results in uniformly bounded errors in cumulative flow N which are proportional to the L ∞ deviation of the approximation. The numerical solution of a simplified problem is well understood, so it is ultimately implied that a kinematic wave model with space-time inhomogeneity can be solved accurately with any existing Godunov type scheme. Besides the solution theory, we will give one concrete example that illustrates the application of inhomogeneous LWR model, which explains the capacity drop phenomenon as a natural result of space-time inhomogeneity.},

It was 4 tested in VISSIM microsimulation and ASC/3 Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) controllers on an 5 actual intersection which will be upgraded to serve two conflicting Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) 6 lines. The ASC/3 logic processor was used to control built-in TSP in the case of conflicting 7 requests, and to develop custom TSP strategies that do not rely on built-in TSP. Custom TSP 8 provides a much higher level of TSP for transit vehicles then the built-in TSP, and it creates 9 opportunities for more adaptable TSP control. 10 The results show that the widely used first-come first-served policy for resolving 11 conflicting TSP requests is not the best solution.

abstract = {The role of the built environment in travel behavior has seen increased interest by strategic transportation planners. To capture relationships between travel behavior and the built environment, microenvironment variables representing infrastructure and land uses surrounding trip origins and destinations are being used as explanatory variables in travel demand models. Buffers of various sizes can be created around origins or destinations to capture the microenvironments. A key requirement is knowledge of the exact coordinates (latitude and longitude) of trip locations. However, such information is commonly removed from public use data because of privacy concerns. To assess whether synthetic geoimputed residences can overcome the removal of exact location information, two data sets from activity-based travel surveys in North Carolina (Research Triangle survey, N = 4,724, and Charlotte survey, N = 3,310) were analyzed. The fundamental question was whether the geoimputed microenviromnental measurements could be used to model travel behavior sufficiently and accurately. Residences, geoimputed residences, and residences assumed to be located at centroids of census blocks (as is current practice) were compared. The data indicate that (a) the assignment of census block centroids results in statistically significant systematic errors when the accessibility measures are measured; (b) geoimputation based on the level of the traffic analysis zone can provide reasonably accurate accessibility measures in larger buffer sizes of 0.75 mi but not in smaller buffers of 0.25 mi; and (c) geoimputation based on census block level provides accessibility measures that are sufficiently accurate for specifying travel behavior models.},

The route helped to galvanize the Good Roads Movement and spur the 4 evolution of a culture in the United States centered around the automobile. The Lincoln 5 Highway Association, formed to gather support for the highway through fundraising, publicity, 6 and construction activities, played a significant role in generating public enthusiasm for 7 improved highways by leading an active propaganda machine, constructing many miles of 8 improved roads, and being a leader in the establishment of design standards and traffic laws. 9 The Lincoln Highway itself saw many firsts in American transportation, which will be discussed 10 in this paper, and thus holds an important place in history. This paper will describe the history of 11 the establishment and construction of the Lincoln Highway and discuss its contribution toward 12 the promotion of improved highways, the development of a national system of improved 13 highways, and general impact the route had on the nation.},

abstract = {Southern California is the largest international trade gateway in the United States. The region generates enormous activity involving the movement of local and domestic goods. Given the expected growth in international trade and movement of domestic goods, significant growth in truck volumes and rail traffic to facilitate the reliable movement of goods and to support economic growth is anticipated in the region. As the movement of goods is a major contributor to local and regional environmental issues such as air pollution and health risk, a regional priority is not only to mitigate the environmental impacts of the system involving the movement of goods but also to ensure that, pursuant to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, equity exists in the distribution of environmental benefits and burdens from federally funded programs involving the movement of goods and projects. Therefore, to prevent disproportionately high and adverse environmental effects and health risks from affecting minority and low-income populations as a result of the movement of goods, the Southern California Association of Governments analyzed the environmental justice implications of the system involving the movement of goods included in the regional transportation plan. The objective of this paper is to identify the minority and low-income populations affected, to analyze their spatial distributions along major truck corridors and freight rail corridors, and to address the environmental justice implications of the system involving the movement of goods in Southern California.},

Cochrane, Roorda, and Shalaby 1 ABSTRACT 54 55 Freight on Transit (FOT) refers to any trip that uses public transit vehicles and/or infrastructure to move things other 56 than people. It can mean moving goods alongside passengers on buses, attaching cargo trailers to transit vehicles, 57 operating freight vehicles between transit trips on subway lines, etc. A three round Delphi Study was conducted to 58 explore the costs, benefits, and challenges of FOT and assess potential FOT operations in Toronto. Thirty four 59 transportation experts participated in the study and through the iterative survey process, it is revealed that 60 practitioners are not opposed to the concept of FOT so long as operations are competitive with current delivery 61 methods in terms of cost and time, there is sufficient capacity on transit networks to support goods movement, and 62 the operations do not disrupt or degrade public transit service. The expert evaluation of potential FOT operating 63 strategies in Toronto, formulated based on aggregate opinion obtained throughout the Delphi process, suggests that 64 while current transit infrastructure in Toronto does not have the capacity to support additional movements, there 65 may be opportunities to include freight service in future projects as a means of offsetting operating costs and 66 reducing the environmental impacts of urban goods movements. The results support previous claims that the 67 technical challenges of FOT may be easier to overcome than institutional barriers like securing financing and 68 balancing the needs of multiple stakeholders; and that the challenges and risks associated with FOT may not be 69 worth what are perceived as only marginal benefits.},

Recently, South Korea developed a high-speed electric multiple unit (HEMU-430X, 430-km/h eXperiment) with a maximum design speed and operating speed of 430 km/h and 400 km/h, respectively; the government was waiting for a trial run on a conventional HSR line. This study tried to predict wheel load fluctuation (WLF), one of the key factors affecting acceleration to speeds over 400 km/h. For WLFs to be understood accurately in the high-speed range greater than 400 km/h, field running tests were performed twice with the KTX-Sancheon trains on the Gyeongbu high-speed line. The trains traveled between Gwangmyeong and Daejeon at maximum running speeds of 302 and 335 km/h, respectively, and WLFs were measured with a telemetry system (radio data transmitter and receiver system) at varying speeds. On the basis of probabilistic data analysis with a Gaussian function, the WLF (sigma/P-st) normalized nondimensional parameter at speeds of 400 km/h and 500 km/h was modeled into quadratic functions. The WLFs at speeds of 400 km/h and 500 km/h were predicted to be 0.356 and 0.512, respectively. In addition, impacts from structures that greatly affected WLFs, such as turnouts, transition zones, and loose sleepers, were evaluated quantitatively. Of those, turnouts had the greatest impacts on the WLFs.},

Roberts i 1 2 ABSTRACT 3 4 Transportation infrastructure funding has long relied on user fees assessed on gasoline 5 consumption. These fees have lost purchasing power as they have not tracked inflationary 6 pressures and increasing numbers of fuel efficient vehicles further erodes the vital source of 7 revenue. The emergence of alternative fueled vehicles powered with new energy sources will 8 exacerbate the long term trend of limited funding for critical infrastructure maintenance. 9 Electric vehicles (EVs) are a type of alternative fueled vehicle offering the potential for 10 enhanced environmental and economic well-being through reduced air emissions, lower energy 11 costs, and increased energy security. EVs can be easily charged at home to meet most daily 12 travel needs and are starting to gain in number on our nation's highways. Current impediments 13 of high initial purchase prices and shorter ranges of operation are expected to decrease as 14 incremental improvements to the underlying technologies drive down costs and increase range. 15 This paper reviews the history of the most important current transportation user fee, the 16 motor fuels tax, and considers criteria for funding mechanisms applicable to alternative fuel 17 vehicles, such as Vehicle Miles of Travel (VMT) user fees. Electric utility tariffs on EV electric 18 use are proposed as an acceptable transition from the gas tax to regulated utility rates for EV 19 contributions to infrastructure funding. 20 Vermont's transportation system is used as an example of how EV related transportation 21 funding prospects could be implemented at the state level.},

However, equitable and optimal fund allocation for purchasing, operating and maintaining a transit fleet is a complex process. In this study, we develop an optimization model for allocation of funds among different fleet improvement programs within budget constraints over the planning period. This is achieved by minimizing the net present cost (NPC) of the investment within the constraint of a minimum level of fleet quality expressed as a surrogate of the remaining life of the fleet. Integer programming is used to solve the formulated optimization problem using branch and bound algorithm. The model formulation and application are demonstrated with a real world case study of transit agencies. It is observed that minimizing NPC provides a realistic way to allocate resources between different program options among different transit agencies while maintaining a desired quality level. The proposed model is generalized and can be used as a resource allocation tool for transit fleet management by any transit agency. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {While traditional financing approaches such as federal and state grants funded by taxation are insufficient to address the existing need, innovative financing such as novel public private partnership models, credit enhancement tools, and new bonding instruments has emerged to expand the fiscal space of public agencies for infrastructure development. Formulating innovative financing approaches is one of the challenges of policymakers to address the ever growing need for restoring the close to failing civil infrastructure in the U.S. Public support/opposition is one of the major drivers/disruptors of innovative financing. Since, public response to innovative financing of infrastructure is affected by the social attitudes, such as public knowledge, awareness, and perception, the assessment of social attitudes is a major component towards developing sustainable infrastructure financing policies. However, there are a few priori studies related to social attitudes regarding innovative financing of infrastructure. The objective of this paper is to assess social attitudes and their implications in policy making related to innovative financing of civil infrastructure. The effects of: (a) economic factors (economic production and unemployment), (b) infrastructure conditions (such as structural condition of infrastructure facilities) and (c) personal characteristics (such as income, gender and education) on the knowledge, awareness, perceptions, and attitudes of the public regarding infrastructure development and financing are assessed. Binary probit and ordered probit models are developed using data collected from 50 states in the U.S. The significant variables affecting the dimensions of social attitudes of the public regarding infrastructure development and financing are identified through this study. The findings of the study revealed that the probability of public support of innovative financing will increase if: (i) the need for infrastructure is significant; (ii) projects are delivered without time and cost overruns; (iii) the benefits of innovative financing are linked with protection against natural disasters; and (iv) the public is informed about the success of innovative financing in other states and in other developed countries. Infrastructure sponsor organizations could benefit from the findings of this study to take the following proactive measures: (1) educating the public to enhance the public knowledge and awareness; and (2) designing financing structures that are consistent with the social attitudes of the public. Conducting these proactive measures by public agencies could ultimately enhance the creation and diffusion of innovative financing to address the need for restoring the infrastructure systems. The study presented in this paper is novel with respect to systemic exploration of the impacts of economic factors, infrastructure conditions, project characteristics, and personal characteristics on the public knowledge, awareness, perception, and attitude towards infrastructure financing.},

abstract = {Traditional methods of financing infrastructure, which include gas taxation, tax-exempt bonds, and reserve funds, have not been able to meet the growing demand for infrastructure development. Financial innovations such as leaseback agreements, availability payment mechanism, and innovative bonding instruments have emerged to close the gap that exists between the available and needed financing sources. The key to expansion of financial innovations is sustainable policies based on a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of the system. Despite their significance for addressing infrastructure challenges around the globe, the determinants of financial innovations have not been systematically explored. The objective of the study presented in this paper is to assess determinants of financial innovations in infrastructure using a System-of-Systems approach, and to demonstrate this approach in the context of the U.S. highway transportation sector. Data obtained from a case-based research approach and a survey deployed to the state Departments of Transportation in the U.S. is utilized in parallel with a network analysis to explore the status quo, key players and interactions, and the drivers of financial innovations for infrastructure. The findings, which include constructs regarding the players, practices, and activities are used to create a conceptual model relating to the drivers of financial innovations. The model along with the constructs provides an analytical tool for understanding the dynamics of financial innovations. Such understanding would lead to expansion of the creation and diffusion of financial innovation practices in the highway transportation infrastructure globally.},

abstract = {Weigh-in-motion (WIM) stations constitute a key source of traffic data for use in mechanistic-empirical pavement design. One of the major improvements provided by the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) is in traffic characterization. Instead of converting all truck axles to 18,000. lb equivalent single axles (ESALs), the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) simulates every truck axle, and the associated stresses and strains imposed on the pavement structure, from a wide range of axle load spectra (ALS). This paper presents an objective approach to quality control (QC) of WIM data that includes threshold checks that detect implausible values of individual variables in the truck weight records and rational checks that examine patterns in axle load distributions and relationships among the variables. Instead of using subjective visual comparisons of gross vehicle weight (GVW) distributions, this research implements a peak-range check, peak-shift check, and correlation analysis to quantify the ALS comparison process of rational checks. A number-of-axles check that calculates the average number of axles per vehicle class is also introduced herein. The entire QC procedure has been applied to three years of data from 12 WIM stations in Alabama that used bending plate sensors. As a result, 23.8{\%} of data were filtered out, and all data from one WIM station were removed. Therefore, QC of WIM data is strongly recommended, regardless of the extent of WIM system calibration. Furthermore, it is also recommended that the rational checks module be integrated in the data collection process for rapid detection of systematic errors. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Joint household travel, with or without joint participation in an activity, constitutes a fundamental aspect in modelling activity-based travel behaviour. This paper examines joint household travel arrangements and mode choices using a utility maximising approach. An individual tour-based mode choice model is formulated contingent on the choice of joint tour patterns where joint household activities and shared ride arrangements are recognised as part of the joint household decision-making that influences the travel modes of each household member. Two models, one for weekend and one for weekday, are estimated using empirical data from the Sydney Household Travel Survey. The results show that weekend travel is characterised by a high joint household activity participation rate while weekday travel is distinguished by more intra-household shared ride arrangements. The arrangements of joint household travel are highly associated with travel purpose, social and mobility constraints and household resources. On weekends, public transport is mainly used by captive users (i.e., no-car households and students) and its share is about half of that on weekdays. Also, the value of travel time savings (VOTs) are found to be higher on weekends than on weekdays, running entirely counter to the common belief that weekend VOTs are lower than weekday VOTs. This paper highlights the importance of studying joint household travel and using different transport management measures for alleviating traffic congestion on weekdays and weekends.},

abstract = {Traffic variables are known to be correlated over time and space as a result of traffic flow propagation. However, the correlation pattern is still largely unknown, and most of the research in short-term travel time prediction, demand forecasting, and network modeling either ignores or assumes correlation. In this paper the patterns of spatial and temporal correlations of average point speeds in a freeway setting were investigated. Five-minute speed aggregates were obtained for two directions of an urban freeway along a 12-mi segment in Los Angeles, California. Other variables included traffic flow, ramp locations, number of lanes, and level of congestion at detector stations. Weighted least squares multivariate linear regression models were fitted to the data from three different times of day (morning, midday, and afternoon) along a shorter, 6.5-mi stretch of the I-10 eastbound freeway. Estimated regression models indicated that an increase in spatial or temporal distance or both reduced the expected value of Fisher Z (transformed correlation). The positive parameters of spatial and temporal distance interaction terms showed that the reduction rate diminished with spatial or temporal distance. Higher congestion tended to preserve higher correlation; variations in road geometry carried relatively small corrections to the models. Models were cross validated on two locations: the remaining 5.5-mi stretch of I-10 eastbound and the 6.3-mi segment of I-10 westbound. Cross validation results showed that the models retained 75{\%} or more of their original predictive capability when applied to independent samples. The developed regression models are thus transferable and are apt to predict correlation on other freeway locations.},

abstract = {Recent literature on active commuting behavior shows an established relationship between public transportation use and physical activity, which is attributed to the fact that most public transit riders must walk or bicycle to access their stop. However, there is limited literature that examines the potential link between public transportation use and active commuting behavior in general. This study seeks to examine if public transit riders also tend to commute more by active modes for their non-transit trips. Data were obtained through an online survey in which respondents answered questions about their active commuting/public transportation patterns as well as demographic, psychosocial, community and environmental information. Statistical t-tests and logistic regression models were used to identify factors that were significantly related to active commuting behavior. The study finds that public transportation use is the most significant predictor of active commuting behavior. In addition, the study highlights key behavioral and psychological factors that also influence active commuting behavior. The results of this work can be used to design policies and programs that might help promote active commuting, leading to more livable and healthy cities.},

Traditional discrete choice models tend to be based on variables such as time and cost, which do not sufficiently explain the choice of the bicycle as a mode of transportation. Because psychological factors have been identified as particularly influential in the decision to commute by bicycle, this paper examines the perceptions of cycling factors and their influence on commuting by bicycle. Perceptions are measured by attitudes, other psychological variables, and habits. Statistical differences in the variables are established in relation to the choice of commuting mode and bicycle experience (commuter, sport-leisure, no use). Doing so enables the authors to identify the main barriers to commuting by bicycle and to make recommendations for cycling policies.

abstract = {Cities and municipalities across the United States are faced with the difficult task of planning adequate transportation infrastructure and freight facilities that enhance goods movement in their region. This is particularly challenging for regions with international borders and limited information on true origin-destination patterns and travel times. Successful planning efforts in these areas generally seek to reduce congestion and delay, improve travel time reliability, and/or enhance safety. However, potential shifts of commodity flows and traffic across modes, routes, and ports of entry present significant challenges. Successful infrastructure planning, therefore, hinges on accurate and reliable multimodal freight data gathered and validated through consensus among various transportation and business stakeholders. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), the largest metropolitan planning organization in the nation, recently conducted a study to assess the flow of commerce at the California-Baja California border of Imperial County. Data collected would help to develop freight planning strategies to address long term trade and transportation infrastructure needs in the region. This study documents the current commodity flow patterns and associated economic activity in that border region. It also examines the trends and characteristics of international trade that determine the demand for freight activities across the border, focusing on international trade between the U.S. and Mexico. This includes consideration of regional economic integration along the border and an assessment of goods movement activities associated with the maquiladora industry.},

ABSTRACT 1 With the rapidly increasing traffic demand, many of locks which had promoted to develop inland waterborne 2 transport in past decades become the major bottlenecks in the waterway system. China has promoted those 3 locks by adding the third (even fourth) chamber in parallel to existing ones, aiming to expand the lock capacity 4 as well as to reduce the delay. For those locks' performance, although much attention has been paid to delays 5 with simulation models, an analytical model is also necessary to estimate the lock capacity reasonably if there 6 is no history data to work with a simulation approach. In this paper, an improved analytical model is developed 7 for a waterway lock based on the relationship between the area and tonnage (RAT) of inland freight vessels 8 and the percent of available chamber (PAC). According to the observed data on the Yangtze River and Grand 9 Canal, China, the RAT of freight vessel was analyzed using linear regression and quadratic polynomial 10 regression, and the PAC ranges from 0.5 to 0.7. The validation shows the analytical model is reasonable. The 11 model can estimate the lock capacity continuously with the parameters instead of the lockage arranging 12 discretely at different level of traffic. It is useful to analyze the effect of the vessels' large and uniform trend on 13 the lock capacity efficiently and reasonably. 14},

Our game-theoretical models incorporate these complicating factors into an integrated framework, and use continuous and differentiable density functions to represent discrete location decisions. We first analyze the existence of Nash equilibria in a symmetric two-company competition case. Then we build a leader-follower Stackelberg competition model to derive the optimal facility location design when one of the companies has the first mover advantage over its competitor. Both models are solved effectively, and closed-form analytical solutions can be obtained for special cases. Numerical experiments (with hypothetical and empirical data) are conducted to show the impacts of competition, facility disruption risks and transportation cost metrics on the optimal design. Properties of the models are analyzed to cast interesting managerial insights. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) oversaturated model defined by a linear transition from flow and density at capacity to zero flow at jam density in the flow-density space provides a reasonable general representation of this relationship but does not provide an unbiased representation for all freeway facilities with different road conditions or driver behavior. This study proposes a method for fitting the HCM model to oversaturated flow and density. Fifteen-minute aggregated flow rate and speed data from Traffic.com fixed-location sensors at three sites on North Carolina (NC) urban freeways in 2010 were collected. Density was calculated as flow rate divided by speed. The fitted models for these sites were compared to the default HCM model. A set of thresholds was defined to identify eligible sensor observations that represent steady state, congested traffic conditions. Results reveal that data observations under inclement weather, lane closures, or incidents will 16 bias the model fitting results and thus need to be filtered out. The steady state congestion data identified in the manner proposed in this study fit well with the HCM-based linear flow-density oversaturated model. This method avoids possible bias caused by capacity and jam density differences between the default HCM model and specific site models, and thus the fitted models represent the actual traffic characteristics relationships better than the default HCM models do. Therefore fitting a site-specific HCM-based model is recommended for sites with sufficient speed and flow data.},

In all three cities, the buses experienced travel time savings after the conversion: 17 min in Miami, 4.5 min in Minneapolis, and 5 min in Atlanta. Similarly, the HOT conversions did not negatively affect bus ridership. Ridership increased over the baseline by 57{\%} in Miami and 13{\%} in Minneapolis. In Atlanta, ridership increased by 11{\%}, and this increase began before the conversion. Bus riders' overall perception of the HOT lanes has been positive. In surveys, the bus riders from Miami and Minneapolis gave high ratings for travel times and reliability in the HOT lane corridors. Riders in Atlanta rated the bus service as very good but were not as positive about the tolls. Riders disagreed that the HOT conversion had improved their travel or been good for the Atlanta region.

abstract = {Improving spatial access to healthy foods in urban regions is recognized as an important component of reducing the prevalence of chronic illness and achieving better health outcomes. Previously, researchers exploring this domain have calculated accessibility measures derived from the travel cost from home locations to nearby food stores. This approach disregards additional opportunities that present themselves as residents move throughout the city. A time-geographic accessibility measure is utilized to explore how single-occupancy automobile commuting affords access to supermarkets. Results show residents in some TAZs have more access when accounting for their commuting behavior than when measuring access from their home. This finding suggests more nuanced calculations of accessibility are necessary to fully understand which urban populations have greater access to healthy food. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {1 Longitudinal GPS travel data provide a wealth of information related to travel behavior and on-2 road vehicle behavior that are very valuable to researchers. Sharing the data publicly allows 3 researchers to explore the data and create new knowledge beyond the initial research objectives. 4 However, if any data are to be used outside of a secure server, the data must be processed in such 5 a manner that ensures the confidentiality of the data will not be breached. High resolution GPS 6 data (e.g. second-by-second speed and location information), when associated with the individual 7 households or drivers, compromises privacy and have a significant potential to harm human 8 subjects. This paper explores how data from the Commute Atlanta Study could be processed to 9 make it useful to researchers while protecting the privacy of the participants. The research 10 developed and assessed methodologies designed to identify the individual participants' home 11 location from processed data and then tested analytical datasets for breach of privacy. 12 13 The research effort found that the home location can be identified to within reasonably small 14 neighborhoods and when the household demographic information are included within the 15 datasets (which is necessary for researchers) exact households can be identified. While there 16 may be some new data processing approaches that could be used to eliminate privacy concerns, 17 until such systems are developed and proven to be not breachable through rigorous analysis, the 18 Georgia Tech team has determined that researchers should access the high-resolution data within 19 controlled secure labs and that the datasets should not be made public without undertaking 20 additional efforts to ensure that home locations cannot be identified when external data sources 21 are leveraged in the analyses. 22 23},

abstract = {This paper investigates the spatial structure of students' leisure trips and to what extent locational characteristics of social network partners influence decisions about their joint leisure activities and travel. To this end a survey was held among university students asking them about details of their last leisure trip made with a friend. Cluster analysis suggests that four typical leisure trip patterns can be derived. Three clusters seem to be determined by the residential locations of ego and alter. Depending on the residential distance between ego and alter, leisure trip distances are either short for ego and alter (if residential distance is very short), somewhat longer for both (if residential distance is slightly longer) or long for at least one partner (if residential distance is large). A fourth cluster includes cases with long leisure trips for both partners, independent of residential distance, representing cases where specific destinations are visited. A more detailed analysis of travel distance suggests that travel distance depends on size of the residential municipality, residential distance and objective and perceived quality of leisure facilities such as caf??s, bars and restaurants. Overall, our study provides support for the idea that leisure trip decisions should be understood on the level of social network ties (i.e. ego and alter) rather than based on individual characteristics only. Also, it provides support for the idea that a focus on single ties, rather than on the structure of social networks as a whole, increases our insight in leisure trip decision making.Keywords: Social network links, Social-recreational travel, Spatial context, Students. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

Given the scale of the 5 problem, it is not surprising that employees of state and local departments of transportation 6 regularly interact with homeless individuals and households living on DOT rights-of-way and 7 rest areas. Little research exists in the transportation literature on the scale and operational 8 implications of homelessness for these agencies; no literature has addressed what might be 9 considered " best practices " for addressing the problem. 10 11 This paper presents a case study of the relocation of homeless households from the Baldock Rest 12 Area near Wilsonville in metropolitan Portland, Oregon in 2010-11. Drawing from key 13 informant interviews, archival materials, and two national surveys of DOT/rest area managers, 14 the paper analyzes the approach used in the Baldock relocation, identifies the key actors and 15 processes used to address the problem, and evaluates the outcomes for the public agencies and 16 the homeless individuals themselves. We find that interagency collaboration and the utilization 17 of both push (sanctions) and pulls (incentives) were critical to this successful relocation. Given 18 the emphasis on environmental justice embodied in the Obama Administration's renewal of 19 Executive Order 12898 of 1997, we suggest that DOT maintenance managers, supervisors and 20 engineers be proactive in adopting procedures and practices that effectively and humanely 21 address homelessness on DOT property. 22},

abstract = {Freight railroads in North America spend billions of dollars every year on track maintenance. Track maintenance activities not only incur high capital costs, but also have a significant impact on railroad safety and operational efficiency. Job clustering is an important part of railroad track maintenance planning. It focuses on clustering track maintenance jobs into projects, so that the projects can be assigned to the production teams and scheduled in the planning horizon. The real world instances of job clustering problem usually have a very large scale, involving thousands of jobs per year. Various difficult side constraints such as mutual exclusion constraints and rounding constraints further increase the difficulty in solving the problem. Therefore, the railroad mainly relies on the experience and knowledge of experts to solve this problem manually. In this paper, the authors develop a mixed-integer mathematical programming model in the form of vehicle routing problem with side constraints, and propose a set of integrated heuristic algorithms to solve the problem. The proposed model and algorithms have been adopted by a Class-I railroad to help their practical operations for a few years.},

abstract = {Expansion of industries often leads to construction of new facilities, and these facilities often in-duce additional traffic demand in a transportation network to or from these facility locations. This imposes pressure on the existing highway transportation infrastructure especially due to the heavy freight vehicles, which has a major impact on the traffic congestion and highway pavement deterioration. Hence, it is important to design facility locations in a holistic manner, taking into account the routing of vehicles as well as planning of pavement rehabilitation. This paper presents an integrated modeling framework for a capacitated facility location problem which incorporates traffic routing under congestion and pavement rehabilitation under deterioration. The objective is to minimize the total facility investment, transportation delay, along with life cycle costs of the pavement facilities. A bi-level mixed integer non-linear program (NLP) is developed to simultane-ously determine the optimal number and location of facilities, optimal routing of shipments, and optimal pavement rehabilitation frequency and intensity. A Lagrangian relaxation (LR) solution framework is developed to solve the problem and get optimal solutions. A numerical case study on a hypothetical transportation network is conducted, and the computational results show that the proposed algorithm is able to solve the problem effectively. Managerial insights are also drawn.},

Residual car queues can form at the intersection as a result. The smaller the distance between a stop and its intersection, the greater the problem can be.Models are formulated to address this problem using kinematic wave theory. The models can be used to determine where to place a near-side stop to achieve a target level of residual car queueing. In addition, the models are used herein to develop a scheme for mitigating residual car queues by briefly detaining some buses from reaching the stop. The scheme can be applied selectively, so that the times that detained buses depart from the stop are not postponed. The buses are therefore not delayed over the longer run. Analysis indicates that this bus-holding scheme can significantly reduce car delays and queueing. Our models for placing stops and holding buses are shown to be robust to systematic and random changes in car flow. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {One of the main challenges in conducting detailed analysis of cyclist behavior is the lack of reliable data. Collecting data through manual methods is a labour-intensive and time consuming process. Two of the important areas of cyclist data collection are volume counts and average speed measurement. A volume count is important as it provides the basis for necessary exposure measures and conveys essential information of traffic patterns. It can also serve as a performance measure of the facility. Cyclist speed data is used for traffic control and safety studies. Video sensors, when complemented with computer vision can offer a promising approach for the automated collection of traffic data. The approach is characterized by the wealth of data they can capture, store and analyze. Through the application of computer vision techniques, it is possible to obtain precise spatial and temporal measurements of the road-users in a resource-efficient way. This paper demonstrates the use of a set of computer vision techniques for the automated collection of cyclist data. The cyclist tracks obtained from video analysis are used to perform screen line counting as well as cyclist speed measurements. The applications are demonstrated using a real-world data set from a roundabout in Vancouver, British Columbia. Further analysis was conducted on the mean speed of cyclists with regards to several factors such as the travel path, helmet usage, and group size. The motivation of this research is to improve the understanding of cyclists' behavior and how it varies under different conditions. Several conclusions can be drawn from the analysis of cyclist speed behaviour. Group size, travel path, lane position and helmet usage were found to affect the cyclist mean speed. Single cyclists had a slightly, but significantly higher mean cycling speed compared to group cyclists. The mean cycling speed was highest for the cyclists using the road rather than the sidewalk. The mean cycling speed decreases for non-helmet users.},

Although ticket gates and bus fareboxes yield counts of passenger activity in specific stations or vehicles, the relationships between these transactions—the origins, transfers, and destinations of individual passengers—typically have been acquired only through small, costly, and infrequent rider surveys. New methods for inferring the journeys of all riders on a large public transit network have been built on recent work into the use of automated fare collection and vehicle location systems for analysis of passenger behavior. Complete daily sets of data from London's Oyster farecard and the iBus vehicle location system were used to infer boarding and alighting times and locations for individual bus passengers and to infer transfers between passenger trips of various public modes, and origin-destination matrices of linked intermodal transit journeys that include the estimated flows of passengers not using farecards were constructed. The outputs were validated against surveys and traditional origin-destination matrices. The software implementation demonstrated that the procedure is efficient enough to be performed daily, allowing transit providers to observe travel behavior on all services at all times.},

The Province of Quebec's early vehicle retirement program also was designed as a mode shift tool by offering six incentives that included transit passes, rebates on bicycles and vehicles, and membership in a car-sharing cooperative. The characteristics associated with program participation and incentive choice were assessed. Between 2009 and 2011, more than 40,000 participants registered with the program and provided address, choice of incentive, age of vehicle, gender, and age. Census data provided measures of the built and social environments near participants' residences. The determinants of program participation rates were assessed with the use of Tobit regressions. Incentive choice was modeled with a multinomial logistic regression. Participation rates were high in low-density metropolitan areas and high-density nonmetropolitan areas as well as in areas with low unemployment rates, few immigrants, and young populations. Transit incentives were popular in dense metropolitan centers with a large proportion of women, young people, and high incomes. Older participants were likely to choose car rebates, whereas bicycle incentives were associated with young male participants. Participants in low-income areas were likely to choose the cash incentive. The addition of incentive options that are feasible in low-density or low-income areas should be considered. Alternative transportation incentives are chosen primarily in dense urban environments where a mode shift is feasible.},

A thermistor and four thermocouples were used as the reference instruments. 4 Data was collected around 10 AM during weekdays. At least 30 measurements were made at 5 3 to 5 minute intervals. The measurement area was shaded in Phase I and unshaded in Phase 6 II of the project. Analysis of the data indicated that the temperatures collected by the RWIS 7 temperature sensors do not statistically match the data collected by the reference instruments 8 in five out of seven cases. Deviations between the RWIS sensors and contact thermometers 9 were found to be larger on days with clear skies. Data was collected during May and June of 10 2010 in Phase I, and during May 2011 in Phase II. The RWIS sensor data are posted to the 11 vendor's website throughout the year. Based on the results from this project, temperature data 12 collected during May and June are unreliable and should not be publicized.

abstract = {A fundamental concept of system engineering is defining operating objectives. Then the appropriate strategy and the performance measure for assessing how well the system is working are selected. Two operating objectives are broadly shared by many agencies: reliable communication with the traffic signal infrastructure and good allocation of green times. The first objective is oriented toward asset management and the second toward operational efficiency. However, substantial synergies exist between the objectives. The proposed performance measures can be used for evaluating whether these objectives are being met. The quality of communication is evaluated by an examination of connectivity and data completeness and is based on an open standard telecommunications model. Opportunities to improve green time allocation are detected through an identification of operating patterns in which some phases routinely force off and other phases gap out in the same cycle. The performance measures are presented in an easy-to-understand visual format that practitioners can use. One outcome of this system engineering approach is the realization that many objectives can be achieved with a high-latency, low-bandwidth communication infrastructure if the appropriate processing techniques and performance measures are clearly articulated. The architecture and performance measures are explained in the context of a deployment of 122 intersections geographically distributed throughout the state of Indiana; data were collected during a 2.5-month period with a communication infrastructure that included commercial cellular data and agency-owned fiber.},

abstract = {Portable changeable message signs (PCMSs) have been employed in highway work zones as a temporary traffic control device for decades in the United States. Results of previous research showed that the traditional text-based PCMS had several limitations, such as having a short range of legibility and being difficult to read by elderly and non-English-speaking drivers. A few simulation studies indicated that using graphic-aided PCMSs could likely overcome these limitations. This paper presents the results of field experiments that were conducted to determine the effectiveness of graphic-aided PCMS in reducing vehicle speeds in the upstream of highway work zones. In field experiment Phase I, a full-matrix PCMS was programmed to display a work zone graphic and a flagger graphic, which were similar to the W21-1 sign and W20-7 sign, respectively, specified by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. In field experiment Phase II, the PCMS was programmed to display two alternative work zone graphics along with the original work zone graphic. 1115 and 1600 valid vehicle speed data were collected during field experiments Phase I and Phase II, respectively. The results of data analysis suggested that graphic-aided PCMSs reduced mean vehicle speeds between 13{\%} and 17{\%} in the upstream of a work zone. This study provided valuable knowledge to government agencies and the transportation industry on how to regulate and implement graphic-aided PCMS in highway work zones.},

Real-time displays at stops are expensive to install and given the 5 current rate of smartphone take up, there could be benefits from using Quick Response (QR) codes 6 linking to adapted, mobile friendly, webpages displaying arrival times of buses. This paper reports on a 7 QR code implementation trial on 44 bus stops in six distinct areas of Southampton, UK. 8 9 Each bus stop was fitted with a poster containing a unique QR code, linking to a website giving live 10 bus arrival information taken from the Southampton traffic control centre. Two types of poster were 11 developed (simplistic with minimal text and a more comprehensive one) to understand what level of 12 instruction was necessary for QR code use. The number of hits at each stop were monitored via the 13 website and surveys of users were undertaken through an on-line questionnaire (accessed via the QR 14 code) and face-to-face interviews. 15 16 The results suggested that there was very little variation in use of QR codes at stops by day of the week 17 or between peak and inter-peak times but there were variations by geographical area. QR code use 18 improved wait time acceptability and feelings of safety and well-being with the vast majority of users 19 finding the system easy to use. 20 21},

Crossings and video clips were described by about 300 variables. $\backslash$tPedestrian and cyclist satisfaction models were developed using cumulative logit regression of ratings and variables. The models include variables, which relate significantly (p {\textless}= 0.05) to the satisfaction ratings. Variables such as type, width and height of pedestrian and bicycle facility, length of crossing, size of roundabout, width of roadway, traffic volume, waiting time and speed limit significantly influence the level of satisfaction. Models return percentage splits of the six levels of satisfaction. These splits are then transformed into a level of service (LOS). The models provide traffic planners and others the capability to rate crossings with respect to pedestrian and cyclist satisfaction, and may be used in the processes of evaluating existing, designing new or redesigning existing crossings.},

abstract = {Responding to an impending demand growth at an existing reactive managed lane system, and in order to provide a timely and more effective temporary hard shoulder activation, short-term prediction models are developed. A lane-oriented attribute, namely the left lane flow distribution ratio (LLFDR), is introduced, aiming to ameliorate the system by capturing the forthcoming stream dynamics and reconfiguring it to proactive. To assess the impact of its implementation to the network's performance, an exploratory analysis was effectuated based on data acquired by seven radar sensors located every 500 m, along a Swiss freeway section that is not affected from incoming or exiting traffic. A locally weighted regression is employed to provide a more accurate insight of the traffic behaviour, comparing observations derived during the regular operation of the system and a period that it was suspended, with respect to seasonality patterns. To describe the impending stream motion by examining different time-volume clusters (off-peak and rush-hour), two prediction models were specified according to the time range. The preliminary results of the study for several prediction horizons, demonstrate an acceptable prediction uncertainty. The hard shoulder activation prediction confirms the analysis of the operation impact findings of this research.},

The first component implements three pricing strategies: responsive pricing; a closed-loop, control-based algorithm; and time-of-day pricing. The second component mimics drivers' lane choice behaviors in the presence of tolls, and the third represents different toll structures for multisegment HOT lane facilities.

In an effort to improve work zone safety now and in the future, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) recently established a special fund for work zone speed enforcement and further commissioned the authors of this study to help them achieve the maximum safety benefits within their budget constraint. A previous study by the authors modeled the crash frequency in Indiana work zones with various features, which provided the potential for safety improvement. In this study, the focus is on evaluating the effectiveness of police enforcement strategies in reducing driving speed in work zones. These results will eventually be included in a comprehensive method for optimizing enforcement strategies and resource allocation to improve work zone safety. Different combinations of stationary police enforcement, with or without supplemental variable message signs (VMS), were evaluated in six work zone sites. The authors conducted data collection using experiment design techniques and multilevel linear modeling for the data analysis with the goal of finding the best way to estimate the effectiveness of enforcement strategies. The developed statistical model allows predicting speed reduction as a function of police enforcement elements and roadway characteristics. The results indicate that spreading enforcement resources among multiple work zones is a good strategy instead of concentrating enforcement on a smaller number of work zones. Furthermore, adding VMS with relevant messages about enforcement greatly increases the effectiveness of the enforcement program.},

Orlando-Orange County Expressway Authority (OOCEA) in Florida added 29 fixed DMS to their toll road network between 2006 and 2008. The research issues investigated in this study are: 1) whether use of dynamic information on toll roads is associated with route diversions, and 2) are users satisfied with the available dynamic information? The instrument used to analyse traveller's perception of DMS and traffic information was a survey conducted in Central Florida region in May 2008 using Computer Aided Telephone Interview. Respondents answered questions on knowledge of DMS on OOCEA toll roads, satisfaction with travel information provided on the network and with different aspects of messages, route diversion (revealed and stated preferences), and demographics. A multinomial logit model was estimated to quantify the odds of choosing different diversion alternative over the alternative of 'stay' that elucidated the differences in diversion behaviour. Results showed that factors associated with greater route diversion are longer travel times, longer delays, information sources, network familiarity, and trip characteristics. Respondents were generally satisfied with DMS. Hazard warnings and accuracy of dynamic information were deemed important for satisfaction.},

Risk management is thus necessary to manage and to prevent ship-related hazardous events that may damage offshore pipelines. Probability analysis is key to assessing the risk associated with ship operations on offshore pipelines and to decision making in managing that risk. Bayesian network (BN) models are proposed in this paper to determine the probability of anchor and trawling damage to subsea pipelines. The BN models are developed by integrating directed acyclic graphs and three computational methods (Boolean operation, standard and historical statistical analyses, and fuzzy set theory) to elicit both marginal and conditional probability tables. A case study illustrates the use of two BN-related functions - probability prediction and probability updating - to determine final probabilities of damage to a subsea pipeline. The results of the analysis support risk-ranking and risk-reducing decisions associated with maritime operations in the area of offshore pipelines.},

A detailed case study in Dania Beach, Florida and a comparative example in Punta Gorda, Florida were used to evaluate the soundness of the methodology. Further research was performed to develop a preliminary evaluation of the impact of groundwater levels as an exacerbating factor with respect to sea level rise.

abstract = {9 Transportation agencies are grappling with new and unfamiliar issues from addressing 10 big problems like climate change to focusing on accessibility, where land use, urban design, and 11 active transportation modes are more important. These challenges come at a time when the 12 resources necessary to meet them are scarce and many agency staff members are reaching 13 retirement. At the same time, Universities continue to attract a new generation of students who 14 are not only comfortable and familiar with these new concepts, but are eager for a workplace that 15 embraces this multi‐disciplinary environment. 16 A multi-disciplinary approach that includes fields not normally associated with 17 transportation would seem to be critical to making sustainable transportation thrive in the 18 complex environment of the city. The Sustainable City Year Program (SCYP) at the University 19 of Oregon addresses this complexity head on by annually connecting twenty-five courses across 20 ten or more disciplines with transportation and other sustainability projects identified by city 21 staff of a different city each academic year. Each year, about 25 faculty and 500 students give 22 over 80,000 hours of effort to help local cities move forward on vexing issues. Students gain 23 professional hands-on experience, an opportunity to learn from multiple disciplines, and an 24 understanding that complex transportation issues require a diverse set of skill sets and 25 perspectives to solve. 26 This paper describes SCYP, highlights a few transportation-specific projects that " non-27 traditional " transportation students take on, and presents a new model for higher education across 28 the country that can help train the next generation transportation workforce. 29 30 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Personal cars contribute 56{\%} of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated from passenger transportation. As vehicle ownership increases, a promising solution to reduce emissions is to turn to greener technologies, namely electric and hybrid-electric vehicles. The hybrid vehicle fleet in Quebec has increased dramatically from 339 in 2003 to 7,085 in 2008. People are turning to cleaner technologies as a means to reduce fuel costs. They are also motivated by government incentives in the form of tax rebates. This study explores the link between socio-demographics, travel behavior and market penetration of hybrid vehicles in Montreal and Quebec City using a negative binomial regression. Moreover, the impact on GHG of different hybrid market penetration scenarios is evaluated. The regression shows that population density, post-secondary education and trip distances have the most significant influence on hybrid vehicle ownership. This implies that the market is geared towards households with higher incomes, living in dense neighborhoods with high accessibility to transit and service. Although hybrid vehicles have the potential for great GHG reductions, the spatial market distribution indicates that this technology will have a more modest impact than what is expected. From an optimistic perspective where 25{\%} of the vehicle fleet is converted to hybrid vehicles, there would only be a 10{\%} decrease in GHGs in both cities. This is a daily savings of 390.9 tonnes in Montreal and 297.3 tonnes in Quebec City.},

abstract = {Existing geometric design guides provide deterministic design criteria for highway elements that ignore the uncertainty associated with many design parameters. Reliability analysis has been advocated as an approach to account for this uncertainty and to evaluate the risk associated with a particular design feature. This paper discusses one important application of reliability analysis: the calibration of geometric design models to yield consistent safety (risk) levels. The paper provides calibrated design charts for the middle ordinate M, defined as the lateral distance between edge of median barriers and centerline of the adjacent traffic lane, at different probability of noncompliance levels. The results show that the calibrated values of M are generally lower than those derived from the AASHTO design guide. The calibrated design charts can offer designers dealing with highways with constricted right-of-way an option to use lower middle ordinate values and enable them to estimate the safety consequences of their decisions. Overall, the calibrated charts can aid the decision maker in determining the safety implications of deviating from geometric design standards and quantifying the safety level built in design values that are deemed acceptable. {\textcopyright} 2014 American Society of Civil Engineers.},

abstract = {Dwell time, the time a transit vehicle spends stopped to serve passengers, contributes to the total reliability of transit service. Dwell time is affected by factors such as passenger activity, bus crowding, fare collection method, driver experience, and time of day. The types of effects crowding can have on dwell time are debatable because of its interaction with passenger activity and inaccuracies in its calculation. Different payment methods also have an effect on dwell time. This debate can be linked to the absence of appropriate data that can actually capture the real effects of these variables. This research attempts to determine the influence of crowding and fare payment on dwell time through manual data collection. The study was conducted along three heavily used bus routes in the Trans-Link system in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Multiple regression dwell time models are performed by using a traditional model and a new expanded model with the additional details that manually collected data provide. The traditional model overestimated dwell times because of a lack of detail in fare payment and crowding, while the expanded model showed that crowding significantly increased dwell time after approximately 60{\%} of bus capacity was surpassed. Fare payment methods had various positive effects on dwell time, with different magnitudes. This research can help public transit planners and operators develop better guidelines for fare payment methods as well as policies associated with crowding.},

A 5 questionnaire survey was administered to residents living along 58 street sections with varying 6 characteristics, and a survey of traffic volume and vehicle speed was also conducted on all these 7 sections. The results based on a sample of 346 Japanese respondents showed that in addition to 8 demographic variables, residents' traffic safety perception was affected by various factors including 9 traffic conditions and street characteristics. Traffic volume was an important factor of perceived 10 traffic safety, and residents were likely able to accurately evaluate vehicular volume traveling on the 11 street on which they live. Although perceived traffic safety was influenced by perceived traffic speed, 12 the influence of traffic speed on traffic safety perception was considerably lower than that of traffic 13 volume. Both the perceived considerateness of drivers towards the safety of pedestrians/cyclists and 14 the frequency of actual traffic accidents were significantly associated with residents' perceived traffic 15 safety. Regarding street features, the total width designated for pedestrians/cyclists and the types of 16 non-signalized intersections were found to be determinants of residents' traffic safety perception. This 17 research confirmed the positive association between perceived traffic safety and individuals' 18 frequency of outdoor activities. Finally, several determinants of residents' outdoor-activity 19 participation were also explored.},

In this study we develop the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) model for a platoon of vehicles and solve the Riemann problem at the moving boundary defined by the platoon head. From the Riemann solutions we derive a new supply function in the platoon head's speed. We then propose a modified Godunov method for solving the platoon LWR model numerically. With examples we demonstrate that numerical solutions converge and are consistent with theoretical ones. The model can be used as a fundamental building block for developing hybrid traffic flow models and for studying the moving bottleneck problem on multi-lane roads. This study could lead to better strategies for simulating, estimating, and controlling heterogeneous traffic flow.},

The study findings underlined the importance of the bicycle but also showed that the bicycle was used selectively by elderly residents and was of limited relevance to households with a social network that extended beyond urban borders.},

This paper discusses the use of a global positioning system (GPS) mobile phone application, TRAC-IT, to collect travel behavior data of carsharing users as part of a variable pricing experiment. A random sample of 30 participants carried a mobile phone with TRAC-IT installed, resulting in over 4 million GPS data points that provided precise geographic and spatio-temporal information. These data informed an analysis of the participants' geographic footprint by estimating a set of standard-distance ellipses of carsharing and non-carsharing modes. Spatial analysis results show that carsharing users have a much smaller activity space (0.5 square miles) than individuals not using carsharing over the same period (7.8 square miles). The activity space of carsharing users contracts while using carsharing as a mode of transport (0.2 square miles for carsharing versus 0.5 square miles for other modes). This may be because carsharing users do not have access to a private vehicle and, therefore, rely on carsharing to conduct out-of-home required trips for maintenance activities, such as grocery shopping.},

ABSTRACT Transportation planning in the United States is conducted by a range of federal, state and local agencies, each with its own interests and constituencies. Metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) have emerged as one of the dominant forces in shaping the future of America's major highways and transit systems. As a part of their federally-mandated duties for planning for major transportation infrastructure, MPOs have been charged with involving the public in their decision making. Though certain state and federal public participation requirements apply to all 17 of North Carolina's MPOs, there are differences in the ways that these organizations engage with those requirements and provide or do not provide meaningful opportunities for public involvement in the planning that they do. This paper explores and records those differences. Through a comparison of the tactics that MPOs used in their public involvement programs and the goals that MPOs set for those programs, this paper outlines several strengths and weaknesses of current practice. Major strengths of current practice include a diversity of tactics and opportunities for involvement throughout the process. A prevalence of tactics that are more informational in nature, a lack of online participation methods, and inadequate attention on underserved groups are some of the key weaknesses. These strengths and weaknesses suggest four key recommendations for moving forward. MPOs should pay more attention to underserved groups, seek to get feedback from residents (as opposed to educating them), move some participation online and move beyond simply meeting federal requirements.

This study aims to explore the effects of attitudes, habits, preferences, and travel patterns of motorcyclists to their repetitive traffic violation behaviours using data from three major cities in Indonesia: Bandung, Yogyakarta, and Surabaya. The theory of planned behaviour and structural equation modelling are employed to detangle these relationships. The study results show that individual beliefs and attitudes, social norms, and perceived behaviour control significantly influence repetitive violation behaviours with social norm as the strongest influencing factor. Males, youngsters, or educated people are found to be more likely to violate traffic regulation frequently. In designing behavioural change policy, it is important to note that individual driving style and traffic law obedience are most closely related with the individual beliefs and attitudes, whilst not respecting other drivers on the streets and speeding in residential areas are the factors that are most influencing social norm. Road geometry, traffic volume, and the number of road lanes are factors that influence individual perceived behavioural control. Pushing the motorcycle to a (very) narrow gap, blocking other vehicles, and speeding are the top three most frequent violations which construct repetitive violation behaviours in Indonesia.},

There are three primary project tasks: an analysis of GTFS field usage by different agencies; an analysis of a single agency's operations at the stop, route, and system levels; and a batch analysis and comparison of 50 large transit agencies in North America. Compared with manually transcribing schedules from transit websites or parsing printed schedules, the use of scripts and database queries suggests that the GTFS is a highly efficient data source and proves the importance of broadly accepted data standards. The methodology documented in this paper and the open source scripts (made available online) will be useful for any analyst or researcher who has tasks related to the analysis of single or multiple transit systems at the stop, route, or system level.},

Using a microscopic simulator, we investigate the effect of a new high performance bus network (HPB) in the city of Barcelona and we intent to understand macroscopically which is the overall performance of the city as the demand and operational characteristics of each mode changes. Varying different traffic parameters such as traffic demand for private vehicles, frequency and dwell times of buses at each stop are analyzed. We also examine how a congested city center (with a direct application in the city of Barcelona) could reduce its private vehicle demand, by transferring it to public transport and which will be the advantages in term of total delays improvement as a function of demand shift. Our results show that significant benefits can be obtained even in cases frequency of buses (and therefore interactions with vehicles) increase.},

The primary objective of 3 such TDM strategies is not to improve traffic safety, although their impact on traffic safety 4 should not be neglected. The main purpose of this study is to simulate the traffic safety 5 impact of conducting a teleworking scenario (i.e. 5{\%} of the working population engages in 6 teleworking) in the study area, Flanders, Belgium. Since TDM strategies are usually 7 conducted at a geographically aggregated level, crash prediction models (CPMs) should also 8 be developed at an aggregate level. Given that crash occurrences are often spatially 9 heterogeneous and are affected by many spatial variables, the existence of spatial correlation 10 in the data is also examined. The results indicate the necessity of accounting for the spatial 11 correlation when developing crash prediction models. Therefore zonal crash prediction 12 models (ZCPMs) within the Geographically Weighted Generalized Linear Modeling 13 (GWGLM) framework are developed to incorporate the spatial variations in association 14 between the number of crashes (NOCs) (including fatal, severe and slight injury crashes 15 recorded between 2004 and 2007) and other explanatory variables. Different exposure, 16 network and socio-demographic variables of 2200 traffic analysis zones (TAZs) are 17 considered as predictors of crashes. An activity-based transportation model framework is 18 adopted to produce detailed exposure metrics. This enables to conduct a more detailed and 19 reliable assessment while TDM strategies are inherently modeled in the activity-based 20 models. In this study, several ZCPMs with different severity levels and crash types are 21 developed to predict the NOCs for both the null and the teleworking scenario. The models 22 show a considerable traffic safety benefit of conducting the teleworking scenario due to its 23 impact on the reduction of total Vehicle Kilometers Traveled (VKT) by 3.15{\%}. Implementing 24 the teleworking scenario is predicted to reduce the annual VKT by 1.426 billion and total 25 NOCs to decline by 2.62{\%}.},

Roundabouts offer well-documented safety, capacity, and environmental 3 benefits as compared with most other intersection types. Yet most U.S. roundabouts are built at either 4 isolated locations or in short corridors. The Complete Streets movement has made great inroads in getting 5 engineers to consider the needs of all users when designing a roadway. Yet jurisdictions which have 6 adopted Complete Streets have largely confined themselves to cross sections; the actual layout of the 7 street network is relatively unchanged. New Urbanism has encouraged planners and developers to rethink 8 the layout and spatial arrangement of local streets, but these concepts have typically not made it to the 9 adjacent arterial network. 10 This paper proposes a roundabout-based network of through streets which integrates Complete 11 Streets and Access Management concepts with provision for mass transit and non-motorized transport. 12 A variety of intersection and corridor treatments are explored for interfaces between the roundabout 13 network, local streets, limited access facilities, and existing arterial grids.

Among the extensive RM methods, those based on optimal control theory have 4 shown strong potential in improving freeway performance. However, these algorithms require an accurate 5 traffic model, which limits their applicability in practice. Reinforcement learning (RL) provides the tools 6 to achieve optimal RM control without reliance on any traffic model. In this paper a guideline for 7 designing RM control systems based on RL is presented by testing different states representations, 8 learning methods, action selection, and reward definitions. A microscopic simulation testbed based on a 9 portion of Highway 401 in the city of Toronto is developed to evaluate each of the above design 10 parameters and quantify various ramp metering control strategies. Comparing the reinforcement learning 11 ramp metering (RLRM) algorithm with modified version of ALINEA, shows the potential of RLRM to 12 improve freeway traffic condition. When applied to the developed case study, the proposed RLRM 13 algorithm and modified-ALINEA reduce the total travel time by 40{\%} and 20{\%} with respect to the case 14 with no RM, respectively. 15 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Research has established that tram stop configuration is a 4 critical factor affecting streetcar dwell times with platform stops having good performance. However 5 research also shows that crowding can act to cause dwell time problems. A major gap in knowledge is that 6 no research has examined crowding and stop design impacts on dwell times. 7 This paper presents the first empirical study to explore the impact of both crowding and tram stop 8 design on streetcar dwell time. A comprehensive dwell time study was undertaken covering busier stops to 9 explore the influence of influence. Two multiple regressions were undertaken to measure the influence of 10 passenger volume, vehicle and stop crowding, tram entrance steps and tram stop design on passenger flow 11 times. 12 Results demonstrate that crowding significantly deteriorates the dwell time benefits which 13 platform stops provide compared to curbside stops. A critical threshold of 14 passenger movements 14 (boardings + alightings) was established, below which platform stop design was preferred and above which 15 curbside stops had better performance. On-vehicle crowding in particular was found to be a significant 16 variable affecting dwell times followed by stop crowding. Crowding effects are more important than the 17 presence of entrance steps in influencing dwell time. 18 The paper discusses the factors influencing these outcomes and suggests areas for future research 19 in this area. 20 21 22 Abstract = 237 words (limit = 250 words) 23 24 25 26 27 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The larger 9 operational impact of space based measures might be as expected given that space based priority 10 measures studied covered 61{\%} of average route section lengths, while time based measures covered on 11 average 25{\%} of all junctions on each route section studied. 12 More sophisticated regression models explained 85.4{\%} of run time and 54.6{\%} of run time 13 variability.

Data for private car users come from a panel of 720 drivers, whose multiday driving activity is tracked using mobile passive GPS loggers. We analyze and compare the driving behavior of the two driver populations in terms of total distance travelled, spatial patterns (e.g. the amount of travel on different road types) and temporal variations (e.g. variations across time of day and across multiple days). The detailed nature of GPS data also permits the estimation of fuel consumption at a very disaggregate level (by link and time of day), and the identification of differences between user groups, which have significant implications for transport and energy policy.

Four mixed integer linear programming models are first built for the VRPPD-H under the four different cargo storage and handling policies. Two types of branch-and-cut exact algorithms are subsequently used to solve each of these four models.

Unfortunately, in this considerable body of research, only a few papers account for bus systems. This paper tries to fill that gap by investigating two potential methods for estimating macroscopic fundamental diagrams of multimodal transport systems of a signalized arterial. The first approach models the motion of buses endogenously by extending the existing estimation method with the moving bottleneck theory; the second approach proposes to incorporate the effects of buses exogenously. The estimated macroscopic fundamental diagrams were then cross compared with results provided by microsimulation software that finely reproduced the traffic stream. Mean speeds of vehicles and buses produced by the different methods were similar and consistent.

abstract = {1 Taiwan High-Speed Rail (THSR) system plays an important role of maintaining efficient transportation of 2 passengers around Taiwan. However, the control mechanism between THSR and traditional railway systems is 3 quite different. Each THSR train is governed by the THSR control center, which operates and dispatches train 4 movements by using the train timetables. Hence, when a disaster occurs, the control center needs to prepare a 5 rescheduled timetable in accordance with current situations so that train drivers can follow. This research proposed 6 an optimization model that has the capability to accommodate not only basic requirements such as railway topology, 7 traffic rules, and user requirements, but also train circulation as well. Mixed integer and dynamic programming 8 were chosen to solve the model under the CPLEX environment. In addition, this research applied sensitivity 9 analysis in order to identify how disturbances propagate in the original timetables and what actions to be taken in 10 order to mitigate the impact instead of simply cancelling the trains. Assumptions as well as input and output values 11 were configured by using real data from the THSR system, which consists of two lines, 128 services, 29 trains, and 12 eight stations. The model has obtained a timetable result as good as the one used in the real world without 13 consuming excessive time. Sensitivity analysis results could determine critical infrastructure and parameters that 14 are sensitive to disturbances. Therefore, it could be a good simulation tool for predicting the effect of disruptions 15 on the timetables and helps THSR design the disaster mitigation plan in advance. 16 17 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {5,323 words + 3 table + 2 figures = 6,573 words Sybil Derrible * ABSTRACT In the past few years, many public transportation systems have seen an increase in ridership, sometimes creating serious congestion especially during peak hours. A partial solution consists of redistributing passengers through key transfer stations to line segments experiencing lower passenger volumes. The concept of network centrality is introduced and illustrated here as a means to determine these key stations. Network centrality is represented by measures of degree, closeness and betweenness centrality. Specifically, betweenness calculates the probability a station is used as a transfer between any two points, and it is therefore particularly relevant in the transit context. To perform this exercise, transit networks are first translated into graphs and their adjacency matrices are created. These three centrality concepts can be applied to all transit modes, but as an example, 15 metros are analyzed here. In general, centrality tends to decrease linearly with network size, although fairly slowly. Several metros are also examined individually in more details, and several stations are notably identified using this methodology. Overall, performing a network centrality analysis is fairly straight-forward, and results can be particularly resourceful.},

Because of the high importance of obtaining reliable results, it is 3 imperative to choose a proper survey method and a reasonable sampling plan. For the past three 4 decades, telephone surveys employing various sampling methods have been used to conduct 5 surveys in Transportation. With the advent of the Internet and its continued expansion to nearly 6 all members of the population, web-based surveys have become a low cost alternative method of 7 collecting survey responses. 8 9 This paper presents a case study and compares the results of two surveys conducted on the same 10 transportation program evaluation topic in consecutive years. The 2010 survey was conducted by 11 telephone and the 2011 survey was conducted as a web-based survey using a multi-method 12 sampling approach. A chi-square test of the given probabilities was conducted to test which 13 sample outcome is more closely related to the distribution of the population. Additionally, 14 several questions are compared between the two surveys to explore differences in responses and 15 possible reasons. The results of this study confirm that as technology progresses and the Internet 16 becomes a main mode of communication, the web-based survey is a tool that is just as good as 17 traditional telephone surveys to conduct a transportation program evaluation survey. 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

They manage and conduct research studies and ensure the successful transfer of knowledge through both inter- and intraorganizational relationships and through knowledge transfer activities. These activities may entail the transfer of knowledge at the local, state, federal or international level. Improving knowledge transfer ultimately improves organizational performance. Use of Burns and Stalkers' dualism-mechanistic versus organic management systems-to describe government organizations aids in the recognition of the current condition and in the identification of the characteristics of an environment that will be more conducive to efficient knowledge transfer. This information will help decision makers within these organizations to select the appropriate organizational structure, or processes, to enhance knowledge transfer. The increasing amount of information and growing organizational complexity require a systems thinking approach to identifying opportunities for improvement within these organizations. This paper describes how systems thinking can aid in exploring knowledge transfer within organic and mechanistic state government organizations and offers contributions to the body of knowledge concerning government entities and intentional knowledge transfer.},

In 2 order for a simulator to accurately describe reality, the corresponding traffic model must be properly calibrated. 3 However, the calibration can be rather difficult when the model is computationally expensive and has many 4 parameters. 5 To overcome these difficulties, Sensitivity Analysis (SA) can be applied as an essential instrument for 6 supporting model calibration. Through SA the practitioners can obtain valuable information about the relationship 7 between model inputs and outputs, and hence focus on the proper set of most influential parameters for the 8 calibration. 9 In this paper we developed an SA approach based on the Elementary Effects (EE) method. It screens the 10 most influential parameters in a complex model through computing the corresponding EE and qualitatively 11 comparing the Sensitivity Indexes. With the improved sampling strategy, this approach is much more efficient than 12 the original EE method. 13 A case study of the Zurich network in VISSIM is included here to illustrate the methodology of the 14 proposed approach. The results demonstrate its efficiency and accuracy. In addition, they show that it can be a very 15 useful tool for the SA of computationally expensive microscopic traffic models like VISSIM, as well as other 16 complex models in the general scientific community. 17 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {1 With the increasing popularity of driving simulators, an opportunity has arisen to introduce the 2 technology into the road design process through the process of a virtual road safety audits 3 (VRSA). This process focuses on adding a human behavior component to the traditional road 4 safety audit process by exposing subjects to a proposed/existing design in a driving simulator. 5 Through the VRSA process, a better understanding of how a design influences the performance 6 of road users can be obtained. Furthermore, by adding the behavioral component to the design 7 process, safer roads can be built and the likelihood of expensive reconstruction can be reduced, 8 since potential human behavior-related problems can be identified before construction. 9 Although a framework for conducting VRSA is presented, the paper focuses on the 10 guidelines developed by the authors to bring scenarios representing real life designs to a driving 11 simulator. Among the reasons for focusing on the scenario creation aspect of the procedure is 12 that despite all the benefits of a VRSA, a major roadblock to the process is the requirement of 13 creating driving simulator scenarios representative of a realistic road design. Streamlined 14 methods for the creation of realistic scenarios are presented. The processes described rely on 15 custom software, existing engineering design tools, and open source 3D modeling software to 16 create scenarios that cannot be created using the authoring tools typically distributed by driving 17 simulator manufacturers. The authors also explore the feasibility of using LIDAR data for 18 scenario creation and present the resulting product for a sample road segment.},

abstract = {Many local, state, and national highways were built years before computer-based tools like geographic information systems (GISs) and computer aided design were available. Therefore, keeping track of existing roadways design parameters is a difficult task since the characteristics of those design are not easily available through modern day GIS and computer aided design-based datasets. Those technologies have become the standard method of information management in agencies and have replaced old paper-based methodologies. As a result, for some of the existing infrastructure, the only information available to decision makers is the location of the highway centerline, along with other asset management information such as shoulder presence, pavement type, and roadside features. The lack of information in GIS datasets about basic design characteristics, such as radius and centerline elevation, means that field surveys are required as the only available method to determine if a highway meets the latest design standards and guidelines. Frequently, field procedures necessary to collect existing geometric data can be not only labor-intensive, but also cost-prohibitive, especially in times of economic constraints. This paper focuses on the use of existing photographic logs commonly created and managed by transportation agencies to automate the process of computing the sight distance available, along an entire route. While the analysis presented is focused on identifying road segments in need of a no-passing zone, results from the methodology discussed can also be used to identify segments where advisory speeds need to be established, as well as those segments where posted speeds should be increased/decreased in order to improve safety. Through the application of the methods presented in this paper, the authors demonstrate how value can be added to existing datasets that were originally collected for completely different purposes such as the creation of a sign inventory. {\textcopyright} 2013 W.

The relatively high cost of current vehicle data-recording systems has often been cited by parents as a deterrent to using such systems. A lower-cost, less-intrusive system for monitoring teen driving behavior would mitigate these concerns. However, the first step was to determine whether low-fidelity data collection devices could discriminate between the driving characteristics of different populations. Teenage and adult drivers had the LCVDR installed in their personal vehicles for four weeks. For each drive, the device recorded a summary of driving performance, including distance driven, drive duration, speed, and sudden braking and acceleration events. The device also calculated a fuel economy and safety score for each drive. Results showed that teen drivers had much higher rates of sudden stops and starts per mile driven than adult drivers. These trends remained intact even after controlling for distance driven on both short and longer drives. Across all drivers in both groups, there was a significant correlation between sudden stops and starts. The teen drivers whose safety scores were in the top third had braking and acceleration profiles similar to the experienced adult drivers. These results demonstrate that significant differences between teen and adult drivers can be measured with lower-cost, lower-fidelity devices. Future research will investigate the effectiveness of training programs designed around the data provided by such devices.},

abstract = {Railway ballast is a critical element in the railway track support structure. The ballast is often overlooked when inspection tools are developed for track. When ballast is not functioning correctly, the strength of the track structure may be inadequate and thus compromise track stability. Track stability-related failures vary from rapid deterioration with little warning to slow and progressive deterioration with often predictable required maintenance. Ballast-related deterioration is progressive and usually provides visual evidence to warn maintenance personnel of needed rehabilitation. However, the blocked drainage that develops with fouled ballast can result in a saturated roadbed that is not stable and could rapidly deteriorate to an unsafe condition with little warning. Although massive failures are rare, if a side hill fill or embankment deteriorates to the point of becoming susceptible to massive failure, then the challenge becomes evaluation. More detailed knowledge of the track support condition will be needed for a thorough evaluation than can be provided by current track inspections, except for costly detailed visual inspections. The current standard of practice for ballast inspection and maintenance can be improved to reduce the risk of sudden failure. Much of the required technology, knowledge, and resources is already available and being utilized under the current system. A more precise evaluation of ballast condition is essential to identify thresholds related to unsafe track support conditions and to support effective maintenance plans.},

abstract = {Transportation is one of the fastest-growing sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the United States and is responsible for a large share of criteria pollutants as well. This paper describes the methodology and results from a project to analyze the potential national-scale effectiveness of transportation control measures in reducing GHG and other pollutant emissions through changes in travel activity. As part of the analysis, a peer-reviewed methodology was developed, and data were obtained from the regional travel demand models of 15 metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs). The regions covered a variety of city sizes, transportation profiles, and geographical regions of the country. The travel activity and emissions impacts of multiple strategies at the regional and national levels were estimated to 2050 with the data obtained from the MPOs. The strategies selected for analysis were travel demand management, land use policies, transit-related strategies, parking-cost changes, and road pricing in the form of vehicle miles traveled (VMT) fees. The long-range transportation plans of participating regions contributed to the creation of scenarios that combined the most widely considered strategies as well as more aggressive strategies such as road pricing for the analysis of impacts on regional trips and VMT. Although other research efforts have focused on this topic in recent years, this study is unique in its use of a bottom-up approach that employs data from a travel demand model for several metropolitan areas as inputs to a standard analysis tool. It helps to illustrate how the emissions impacts of transportation strategies can be estimated on a national scale by using regional information.},

Abstract As the liquefied natural gas (LNG) market is pushed towards liberalization by consumers, a higher portion of projects are dedicated to spot sale also the possibility of arbitrage increases. It means the cash that flows into the upstream of LNG projects is a combination of the cash which is generated by deliveries to long term contract (LTC) destinations, spot sale and arbitrage. To a considerable extent, LTC cash flow is predictable while spot sales and arbitrage cash flows, affected by the dynamics of supply and demand, are more volatile. In this paper, we formulate a model to maximize the profit of an LNG supplier with respect to product spot sales and LTC commitments (including arbitrage) at an operational level. The output of the model is an assignment of tankers to customers, whereby tankers not currently fulfilling LTCs are free to carry spot shipments. The fleet of tankers is fixed, although where required additional tankers can be chartered at high prices. A combination of the model developed for this research and LNG spot price scenarios provides insight into how the LNG market behaves and can help an LNG seller make better decisions.},

abstract = {1 Incident clearance time is a major performance measure of the traffic emergency 2 management. A clear understanding of the contributing factors and their effects on incident 3 clearance time is essential for optimal incident management resource allocations. Most 4 previous studies simply considered the average effects of the influential factors. Although the 5 time-varying effects are also important for incident management agencies, they are not 6 sufficiently investigated. To fill up the gap, this study develops a non-proportional 7 hazard-based duration model for analyzing the time-varying effects of influential factors on 8 incident clearance time. Followed in this study is a systematic approach that includes the 9 following three procedures: proportionality test, model development/estimation, and 10 effectiveness test. The influential factors were investigated from both macroscopic and 11 microscopic perspectives. The population average effect evaluation provides the macroscopic 12 insight and benefits long-term incident management, and the time-dependent pattern 13 identification offers microscopic and time-sequential insight and benefits the specific 14 incident clearance process. 15 Applying the proposed model to the 2009 Washington State Incident Tracking System 16 data, a total of two factors were found to have significant but constant (or time independent) 17 effects on the clearance time. These factors are similar to the findings from previous studies. 18 However, our model also discovered fifteen variables that have significant time-varying 19 impacts on clearance hazard. These factors with time-varying impacts cannot be identified 20 through the conventional methods used in most previous studies. Based on the analysis 21 results from the proposed method, improvement plans for either long-term incident 22 management or specific time-sequential incident clearance cases can be easily formed and 23 applied. 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41},

We study the impact of 5 those parameters on a study case for a two parallel route, an idealized two route 6 alternative in the north-eastern region of Barcelona Metropolitan Area. A model that 7 properly joins DTA commercial software to a time-swapping algorithm that accounts 8 for users' departure-time choice is proposed, allowing the achievement of a 9 departure-time steady-state assignment (DT-DUE). 10 The results show that toll pattern design has a more than fine tuning effect on 11 optimal toll design problem. Some complex interactions between route and 12 departure-time choices and the network characteristics have been pointed out. Peak 13 hour time-varying toll pattern yields the minimum total generalized cost, but different 14 toll patterns can reach better results for non optimal toll levels. This suggest that, if 15 social welfare is ought to be maximized the better option will be to set a peak hour 16 time-varying toll. In case minimum revenue constraint has to be taken into account, 17 it should be better to set a uniform toll or a bounded time-varying scheme depending 18 on the necessary toll level, as long as those strategies rise private travel costs far 19 less than the revenue collected allowing reinvestment. 20},

Bicycle ownership 2 has been shown be correlated with recreational activity, propensity to travel by bicycle, and 3 injury rates. Thus bicycle ownership may have farther reaching effects on public health, 4 congestion, energy usage, recreation facility demand, and infrastructure investment. This paper 5 proposes to analyze bicycle ownership on a national scale using the 2001 National Household 6 Travel Survey. Three ordinal logit models were created which analyzed general trends in 7 household bicycle ownership, regional effects at a micro household scale, and regional and city 8 effects at a macro scale. This analysis showed that larger households owned more bicycles and 9 that educated, higher income households were more likely to own bicycles. Minority households 10 were less likely to own bicycles as well as households in rural areas. Women contributed to 11 bicycle ownership but to a lesser degree than men. Children greatly contributed to bicycle 12 ownership, especially between the ages of 10 and 15. Adult bicycle ownership peaked at middle 13 age and declined rapidly beyond age 55. Divisional and city effects were also found to exist 14 which suggest that local infrastructure investment as well as cycling culture may contribute to 15 bicycle ownership. Further research into the behavioral causes of many of these effects is 16 suggested. 17 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Hammond, Cherrett and Waterson 2 ABSTRACT 1 Active travel in the form of walking can contribute to recommended levels of daily exercise and 2 is linked to increased health and wellbeing. Promoting active modes for school travel, such as 3 walking, has become commonplace in recent years. In the United Kingdom, Safe Routes to 4 Schools programs demonstrate one method of promoting walking, whilst attempting to ensure 5 the safety of children during their school journey through interventions which include child 6 pedestrian training. The quality of child pedestrian training programs in the United Kingdom has 7 suffered in recent years due to austerity measures and time pressures forcing local authorities to 8 reduce the amount of practical training and increase the amount of less effective, but cheaper, 9 paper-based classroom activities. This paper considers the effectiveness of an interactive video 10 which has been developed as an alternative to these paper-based activities designed to target and 11 improve the crossing behavior of children between parked cars. In an exploratory study targeted 12 at elementary school aged children, significant improvements in certain crossing behaviors were 13 demonstrated as a result of training with the interactive video, indicating its potential to 14 significantly improve the range of resources currently available for use by road safety training 15 professionals. 16},

Therefore, researchers have used different methods and 4 artificial intelligence algorithms to find near-optimal solutions. 5 Choosing the right algorithm to solve the problem is extremely important since it directly 6 influences the solution and consequently network performance. Of course, different algorithms 7 have different convergence properties and due to the extremely large solution space of the 8 problem, selecting a more efficient algorithm with lower runtime is vital. 9 This study compares the performance of five meta-heuristic algorithms in optimizing 10 traffic signals in terms of their runtimes and solution quality. These algorithms are: simple 11 genetic algorithm (SGA), elitist genetic algorithm (EGA), micro-elitist genetic algorithm 12 (MEGA), evolution strategy (ES) and, elitist evolution strategy (ES+).Findings indicated that 13 when calibrated, each algorithm is capable of finding near-optimal solutions that prevent queue 14 spillovers and gridlocks. 15 In general, ES+ required the fewest number of Fitness Function Evaluations (FFE) to 16 reach most levels of the upper-bound. ES required similar number of FFE to reach up to 90{\%} of 17 the upper-bound; however, for higher levels it was considerably slower than ES+. MEGA was 18 very quick in early improvements in the fitness value; however, in most of the cases ES+ 19 outperformed it reaching higher levels of the upper-bound. In symmetric demand patterns, EGA 20 was much faster than ES+ in reaching to 97.5{\%} of the theoretical upper-bound. Finally, SGA 21 was in general among the least efficient algorithms for all demand patterns. 22 23 24 25},

On the other hand, the recent 3 transportation policies such as a bus rapid transit (BRT) could be a breakthrough even though coordination of 4 several governmental agencies is prerequisite. This paper proposed the theoretical framework of the 5 metropolitan coordinating body in urban transportation, mainly for developing countries, and identified issues 6 in the process of formulating the body. Based on the examples from throughout the world, three directions of 7 coordination; consolidation, independence and comprehensiveness are identified. Taking the level of 8 autonomy and the impact of transportation issues into account, the appropriate level of consolidation, 9 independence and the number of participants shall be chosen. As almost all the developing countries are facing 10 typical problem of lack of financial and human resources, unsound institutional framework and unstable 11 political conditions etc., the points of coordination in developing countries such as an institutional framework, 12 coordination with urban planning, infrastructure development, transportation demand management, funding 13 scheme and operation of public transportation were examined. Finally, the metropolitan transportation 14 coordination scheme, issues of establishing the coordinating body were clarified utilizing the example in 15 Jakarta metropolitan area.

The evacuation response curve follows a general S-shape with sharp upward changes in slope after the issuance of mandatory evacuation notices. These changes in slope represent quick response behavior, which may be caused in part by an easily mobilized tourist population, lack of hurricane evacuation experience, or the nature of the location, in this case a rural area with limited evacuation routes. Moreover, the widely used S-curves with different mathematical functions and the state-of-the-art behavior models are calibrated and compared with empirical data. The results show that the calibrated S-curves with logit and Rayleigh functions fit empirical data better. The evacuation behavior analysis and calibrated evacuation response models from this hurricane evacuation event may benefit evacuation planning in similar areas. In addition, traffic data used in this study may also be valuable for the comparative analysis of traffic patterns between the evacuation periods and regular weekdays and weekends.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2016.Satisfaction with life (SWL) is a global judgment of life, which includes family, work, social life among others. Although previous studies have explored the impact of the major life domains on SWL, few have focused on travel. Travel presumably affects satisfaction with travel (SWT), which in turn contributes to SWL. Using data from residents in the Minneapolis'St. Paul metropolitan area (Twin Cities), we employ structural equations models to explore the relationships between travel and SWT/SWL. As expected, SWT has a positive association with SWL. Vehicle miles driven is positively associated with SWL but negatively associated with SWT, and therefore, its total effect on life satisfaction is insignificant. Most measures of travel have negative associations with SWL through SWT, consistent with the theory of disutility of travel. However, the detrimental effect is not large. Because having a driver's license is positively associated with SWL, planning strategies should be developed to meet the daily needs of those without a license and to improve their life satisfaction in an automobile-oriented society.},

abstract = {The Bayesian inference method has been frequently adopted to develop safety 1 performance functions. One advantage of the Bayesian inference is that prior information about 2 the independent variables can be included in the models, which could benefit the inference 3 conclusions from avoiding implausible results due to data fluctuations. However, there are few 4 past studies discussing how to formulate the informative priors and what are the effects of having 5 informative priors in developing Safety Performance Functions. This paper fills the void by 6 introducing four approaches of developing informative priors for the independent variables based 7 on historical data or general information. Merits of these informative priors have been tested 8 along with two types of Bayesian Hierarchical models (Poisson-gamma model and Random 9 effect Poisson model). Deviance Information Criterion (DIC), R-square values and standard 10 errors were utilized as evaluation measures to select the best model(s). Comparisons across the 11 models indicate that the Poisson-gamma model is superior with better model fitting and it is 12 much more robust with the informative priors. Moreover, model fitting and coefficient 13 estimation accuracies have been enhanced by the informative priors. Finally, based on the results, 14 recommendations are made for the different informative prior development techniques. 15},

abstract = {This paper presents an investigation of the temporal evolution of commuting mode choice preference structures. It contributes to two specific modelling issues: latent modal captivity and working with multiple repeated crossectional datasets. In this paper latent modal captivity refers to captive reliance on a specific mode rather than all feasible modes. Three household travel survey datasets collected in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) over a ten-year time period are used for empirical modelling. Datasets collected in different years are pooled and separate year-specific scale parameters and coefficients of key variables are estimated for different years. The empirical model clearly explains that there have been significant changes in latent modal captivity and the mode choice preference structures for commuting in the GTHA. Changes have occurred in the unexplained component of latent captivities, in transportation cost perceptions, and in the scales of commuting mode choice preferences. The empirical model also demonstrates that pooling multiple repeated cross-sectional datasets is an efficient way of capturing behavioural changes over time. Application of the proposed mode choice model for practical policy analysis and forecasting will ensure accurate forecasting and an enhanced understanding of policy impacts. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {During oversaturation, a popular objective in traffic signal operations is to maximize throughput in order to keep traffic moving. As cycle lengths are increased, the proportion of " lost time " used to transition between signal phases is reduced. This is often a rationale for programming long cycle lengths into signal timing plans. To investigate the impact of cycle length, this paper revisits the concept of critical lane analysis to calculate throughput, and applies the technique to data collected at an oversaturated intersection in Indianapolis, Indiana. Traffic volumes were measured from over 10 weeks while different cycle lengths were tested at the intersection, ranging from 80 to 135 seconds. Somewhat surprisingly, during saturated conditions, no clear increase in the sum of critical lane throughput was observed, even when the cycle length increased by over 50{\%}. In fact, there was a slight reduction in the total critical lane sum volume at 135 seconds. The findings concur with a recent study by Denney et al.. The decrease in throughput under the longer cycle lengths is attributed to the reduction of saturation flow during long green times. The paper discusses possible results of using a time-dependent saturation flow rate. Additionally, the critical lane analysis methodology may have applications for agencies to evaluate and rank intersections within corridors as under, near, or over saturation.},

No serious attempts have been 7 made to collect and analyse the driver behaviour data in Indian conditions. While a few 8 researchers have tried to analyse the driver behaviour during the onset of yellow phase, some 9 potentially significant factors in an heterogeneous traffic conditions have not yet been 10 studied. No literature was available for the analysis of driver behaviour during the green and 11 red phase. There comes the need for the present study for analysing the driver behaviour on 12 all the three phases of the signal. 13 This study is aimed at modelling the behaviour of drivers at few urban signalized 14 intersections in India during yellow phase, red phase and green phase. A binomial logistic 15 regression model was developed for the drivers " stopping behaviour during yellow phase. 16 The result shows that yellow-onset distance from stop line, yellow-onset speed, vehicle type 17 and age of the driver are statistically significant factors that influence the drivers " stopping 18 behaviour. A multinomial logit model was developed to represent the vehicle accumulation 19 pattern during the red phase and it was found that type of vehicle, time of arrival and the 20 position of vehicles are all statistically significant factors.

abstract = {Choosing an appropriate objective function in optimizing traffic signals in urban transportation network is not a simple and straightforward task because the choice likely will affect the set of constraints, modeling variables, obtained outputs, and necessary computer and human resources. A methodology for selection of an appropriate objective function for the problem of signal timing optimization was developed. The methodology was applied to a realistic case study network under four demand patterns (symmetric, asymmetric, undersaturated, oversaturated). Selection is made from a pool of five candidates: minimizing the delay, minimizing the travel time, maximizing the throughput-minus-queue, maximizing the number of completed trips (or trip maximization), and maximizing the weighted number of completed trips (or weighted trip maximization). Findings indicate that for all demand patterns, weighted trip maximization improved network performance compared with the other objective functions. Weighted trip maximization reduced system total delay by 0.1{\%} to 5.2{\%} in symmetric undersaturated demand, by 1.0{\%} to 2.4{\%} in asymmetric undersaturated demand, by 1.2{\%} to 16.6{\%} in symmetric oversaturated demand, and by 11.7{\%} to 27.4{\%} in asymmetric partially oversaturated demand. These figures indicate that the weighted trip maximization objective function is the most suitable of the candidates in oversaturated conditions, especially when demand is not symmetric. Throughput-minus-queue and trip maximization were the second most suitable objective functions for oversaturated conditions, and trip maximization was slightly more suitable when demand was asymmetric.},

Movement patterns, home range size, and the survival of turtles from three treatment groups between 2008 to 2011 were compared: turtles native to the study site and not moved during the study (native turtles), turtles native to the site but that were removed from the limit of disturbance (LOD) of the highway and relocated within 500 m of their original location (on-site relocations), and turtles that came from areas at least 5 km from the study area and that were relocated within 250 m of the LOD (off-site turtles). Turtles in the off-site group had larger home ranges and moved longer distances than either on-site or native turtles. However, off-site-relocated turtles did not make permanent movements off the study area nor have difficulty finding suitable sites for overwintering. No statistically significant differences in survival were found in the three treatment groups. However, overall survival rates were {\textless}65{\%} over the study's 3 years, considerably lower than rates seen in other box turtle populations, perhaps because of an emerging pathogen, Ranavirus, causing numerous deaths of box turtles. Recommendations for best practices emphasized the need for more effective wildlife exclusion fences to be built and maintained earlier in construction. Failure to create and maintain such a barrier led to numerous trespass events, where turtles moved onto the LOD and would likely have been killed without researchers' intervention.},

Numerous studies have developed a variety of performance functions for signal optimization. Most of these studies attempted to use simplified LPFs that did not capture the important relationships and dependencies among the variables. Dependent LPFs are introduced; in these LPFs the performance on any link depends on the flow pattern not only on that link alone but also on the feeder links. Such functions represent with greater fidelity the performance characteristics of the link and can lead to better control and assignment. An optimization model explicitly considers flow interactions among successive links and applies it in a dynamic programming procedure to determine optimal signal settings. The procedure, which is an offshoot of the combination method for offset optimization, is illustrated for an arterial street and demonstrates its efficacy in comparison with existing optimization models.},

The purpose of this study is to provide a state of the practice for open transit data: how web applications use open transit data, what benefits agencies gain by giving software developers access to the data and what the best practices are for agencies considering opening data they already have. This project is limited to static data and does not address privacy and legal issues surrounding real-time GPS location data. The research draws upon a literature review, interviews with industry experts and practitioners and primary experience coordinating a regional open transit data initiative in Atlanta, Georgia. Case study interviews conducted with five transit agencies about their experiences with open data revealed best practices and trends in customer benefits. Several key findings emerged from these agency interviews: (1) transit agencies of any size can pursue open data; (2) legal concerns about brand usage and liability can be overcome; (3) agencies should support the software development community; and (4) open data is an opportunity for positive marketing of an agency. These findings enable public agencies nationwide to embark on an open data initiative to deliver benefits for existing and potential riders at low deployment costs.},

Among them, the choices of 2 mode, line, and frequency are key elements that influe nce travel demand; thus, the previous literature 3 has focused on developing models for determining these elements separately, even though mode, line 4 configuration, and frequency should be determined simultaneously. Doing so is essential because 5 mode selection provides the constraint conditions that are applicable for line configuration and 6 decisions concerning the frequency of operation. Furthermore, line configur ation and frequency also 7 influence capacity and speed, which are closely rela ted to the selected mode. Therefore, the aim of 8 this paper is to develop a decision model that in tegrates mode, line, and frequency for a new transit 9 line. The model has a bi-level structure in which the upper level of the model is formulated to 10 determine mode selection, line configuration, and frequency, whereas the lower level of the model is 11 formulated to determine mode share and link flows reflecting travelers' behaviors related to choices 12 of modes and routes. An application of the proposed model is presented using a test network. The 13 results of this application show that the proposed model performs better than the existing methods that 14 are used in the pertinent literature. The model simula tes realistically the influence of a new transit line 15 on its surrounding network by reflecting changes in tr avelers' behaviors according to the transit line's 16 construction, and it also provides a theoretical basis for the evaluation of the feasibility of the planned 17 investment in a new transit system.},

abstract = {Transferring trip rates to areas without local survey data is a common practice which is typically performed in an ad-hoc fashion using household-based cross-classification tables. This paper applies a rule-based method called decision tree to develop individual-level trip generation models for eight different trip purposes as defined in the National Household Travel Survey data (NHTS 2009) in addition to their daily vehicle miles traveled (VMT). For each trip purpose, the models are then obtained by finding the best-fitted statistical distribution to each one of the final decision tree clusters while considering the correlation between different trip purposes. The rule-based models utilize several socio-demographic and land-use explanatory variables and are sensitive to changes in demographics. The performance of the models are then tested and validated in a transferability application to Phoenix Metropolitan Region. These models can be employed in a disaggregate microsimulation framework to generate trips with different purposes at individual or household level. They can also be used as an alternative solution for trip generation step of a conventional four step travel demand model.},

abstract = {To encourage more bicycle commuting to work U.S. local governments have amended zoning ordinances and policies to promote more trip-end facilities for cycling and less car parking at work. This article examines the role of trip-end facilities at work, like bike parking, cyclist showers, and non-cyclist benefits, such as free car parking and transit benefits, as determinants of cycling to work. Most prior studies on trip-end facilities at work rely on hypothetical stated preference surveys of cyclists—excluding non-cyclists and not capturing mode choice for actual commutes. This analysis is based on commute data of 5,091 workers in the Washington, DC area, where commuting accounts for 41{\%} of all bike trips. Results of logit, probit, and rare events logistic (relogit) regressions indicate that bike parking and cyclist showers are related to higher levels of bicycle commuting—even when controlling for other explanatory variables. The odds for cycling to work are greater for employees with access to both cyclist showers and bike parking at work compared to those with just bike parking, but no showers at work. Free car parking at work is associated with a lower likelihood for bike commuting. Employer provided transit commuter benefits appear to be unrelated to bike commuting. Regression coefficients for control variables have expected signs, but not all are statistically significant. Greater bikeway supply, shorter commutes, and warmer weather are associated with more bike commuting. Results indicate more bicycling among commuters that are white, male, own more bicycles and fewer cars, and have higher incomes. Results are consistent with previous research and provide additional information about the role of free car parking and the potentially differential impact of bike parking vs. cyclist showers.},

abstract = {50 The design of mini-roundabouts has been around and practiced in Europe for decades. It has 51 been a successful and low-cost intersection configuration. Nevertheless, accessible traffic 52 capacity models for mini-roundabouts do not exist. 53 54 This study provides design recommendations and a simulation approach for capacity models of 55 mini-roundabouts from USA data. Two typical geometries are selected that have a 24' or 36' 56 approach widths typical of conventional intersections. The mini-roundabouts are best defined by 57 the Inscribed Circle Diameter of 50' and 75'. Mini-roundabouts are low-cost treatments using 58 existing external boundaries of intersections. Field data are collected on Critical Gap and 59 Headway acceptance for a similar design located in Stevensville, MD in order to calibrate a 60 simulation. VISSIM Microsimulation software is used to model the selected prototype designs 61 for capacity estimations. The defining feature for mini-roundabouts is the traversable central and 62 splitter islands for large vehicles that make through or left turn movements. 63 64 The linear capacity models presented, estimate the capacity of the mini-roundabouts to be lower 65 than that of the single-lane roundabout. However the mini-roundabout has a higher capacity per 66 square foot of land which would be an innovative solution for urban areas for increasing capacity 67 at existing AWSC intersections at lower cost than single-lane roundabouts.},

abstract = {Emission reduction strategies are gaining attention as planning agencies work towards adherence to air quality conformity standards. As state departments of transportation (DOTs) and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) struggle to find more options to reduce Greenhouse Gases (GHG), emission pricing offers a solution. To consider emission pricing as an alternative, planners and policymakers will need tools to understand the implications on travel behavior of private vehicle users. In this paper we present an integrated travel demand and emission model to incorporate policy strategies for emission reduction. First, the travel demand model determines the destination, mode and route choice of the users in response to a particular strategy set by the planner. Second, the emission model provides GHG (NOx, VOC, and CO 2) estimates at a very detailed level in the transportation network. A logit-based destination choice and mode choice is proposed and the user's response to a strategy in assignment is captured by Frank-Wolfe algorithm. A Base-case and four models are proposed to achieve emission reduction in a multimodal transportation network. Each model provides several insights to pollutant specific emission, how different function classes of the network are affected by policies, impacts on vehicle miles of travel (VMT), total system emission, and total system travel time. The complete framework is applied to Montgomery County's (located in the Washington DC-Baltimore region in the United States) multimodal transportation network. It is observed that each model has a set of advantages and limitations in terms of emission reduction.},

Al-Ghandour 2 ABSTRACT 1 Simulated delay performance of single-lane roundabouts with an adjacent slip lane (bypass) for right turns 2 is evaluated under varying bus and truck traffic percentages and two slip lane exit types (free-flow and 3 yield). A microsimulation assessment considers experimental balanced flow scenarios with different 4 right-turning bus and truck traffic percentages (low, moderate, and high) and with a proposed dedicated 5 lane, compared to no slip lane. Simulated slip lane right-turning traffic volumes range from 50 to 500 6 vehicles per hour. Results indicate that average delay of a roundabout with slip lane and under varying 7 bus or truck traffic has confirmed a non-linear relationship with slip lane volumes and is sensitive to 8 changing bus or truck traffic percentages, before oversaturation occurs. As expected, results indicate that 9 a free-flow slip lane exit type significantly reduces total roundabout average delay, compared to having 10 no slip lane with bus or truck traffic. Yield slip lane exit types also reduce roundabout total average delay 11 with bus or truck traffic but to a lesser degree. With a free-flow slip lane exit type designated as a 12 dedicated bus lane, overall average roundabout delay was reduced 12{\%} (the estimated 95{\%} confidence 13 interval of reduction estimated between -19{\%} and -5{\%}). With a dedicated truck slip lane, overall average 14 roundabout delay was reduced 9{\%} (the estimated 95{\%} confidence interval of reduction estimated between 15 -16{\%} and -2{\%}). A dedicated bus slip lane shows a more significant improvement of delay than a 16 dedicated truck slip lane, for a single-lane roundabout.},

abstract = {The topic of safe routes to school has been researched since the 1970s, and safe routes to school have been a goal of government programs since 1997. Despite the improvements made because of these efforts, the share of students walking and biking continues to decline. Identified barriers include parents' concerns about safety, the environment, time, and external factors such as traffic, weather, and distance. This research suggests that planners have overlooked two important factors influencing distance: education movements since the 1950s for greater school choice and affordable housing policies. Beyond desegregation, the creation of magnet schools, vouchers, academies, charter schools, and other school options has resulted in growing shares of urban students traveling long distances to school. In Oakland, California, only 49{\%} of students attend school in the neighborhood where they live, and another 10,228 attend 34 charter schools with countywide enrollment. U.S. housing policies have also changed. Construction of public housing has ceased, save for the construction of replacement units. Housing voucher programs are oversubscribed, and individuals with vouchers often change neighborhoods or cities to find a unit. Foreclosures, high prices, and low vacancy rates in cities have also limited housing availability. School and housing policies combined have eroded the economic location theory, in which families balance housing and transportation costs to be near work and good schools. The study uses surveys, time use diaries, and interviews with 70 Oakland parents or caregivers. Results identify the complex choices that affect school travel and offer potential ways for transport, land use, and education planners to coordinate active travel to school.},

The more frequent and more accurate information available with ADS-B could improve the performance of conflict-alerting systems for vehicles operating on airport surfaces. Ten years of National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) airport surface accident reports were reviewed, and four encounter scenarios representing the most commonly observed interactions between aircraft and airport surface vehicles were created. A concept of operation was then defined for how an ADS-B based alerting system could take advantage of ADS-B specific information to generate alerts in each of those four encounter scenarios. Through the use of historical ADS-B data from the Boston, Massachusetts; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Louisville, Kentucky, airports, proof of concept was established. The concepts show promise in reducing the uncertainty in alerting systems that is present because of lack of knowledge of the intent of the operator. Instead of guessing at future states by propagating trajectories, an alerting system would compare expected behavior to actual behavior and alert personnel if a deviation were observed.},

This paper focuses on the use of probe data obtained from phones with discoverable Bluetooth devices to sample the time needed for passengers to travel from the nonsterile to the sterile side of an airport facility. To collect these data, the Kenton County Airport Board partnered with Purdue University to conduct a study at the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky International Airport, Hebron, over a 4-week period during the 2011 Thanksgiving holiday. Bluetooth monitoring stations (BMSs) were used to collect unique identifiers from approximately 46,000 devices and to compute more than 1.5 million travel times between 17 BMSs. With a Pareto distribution approach, hourly security wait times were ordered, and a methodology was developed to identify periods for which opportunities might exist to reduce wait times (relative to a specified maximum wait time) by opening more security lanes, as well as periods for which opportunities might exist to reduce the number of lanes operating. With this methodology, it was determined that only 5 h during the study period had median wait times of greater than 20 min during November 2011. The paper concludes by discussing how this technique can be used to perform longitudinal comparisons between airports as additional airports begin automating the collection of checkpoint wait times.},

abstract = {The U.S. airline industry is in a period of consolidation through mergers between leading carriers. A number of recent mergers have been approved by the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (DOJ), in part because of the presence of Southwest Airlines in the affected markets. In its approval of the mergers, DOJ makes a key assumption that Southwest is unresponsive in its pricing strategy to the reduced competition when its competitors merge. Numerous studies have validated the so-called Southwest effect, through which potential or actual entry into a market by Southwest Airlines is associated with lower market fares. However, considerably less work has examined Southwest's postentry pricing strategies. This study finds that Southwest raised fares more between 2005 and 2010 in markets affected by the Delta-Northwest and US Airways-America West mergers than in other markets. Southwest's fares either decreased or rose by less when the company was facing direct or adjacent competition from a low-cost carrier (LCC). DOJ's approval of Southwest's merger with AirTran, its biggest LCC competitor and strongest deterrent to raising fares in merger-affected markets, raises questions about Southwest's ability to continue as a suitable deterrent to postmerger fare hikes, particularly in the absence of other LCCs in those markets.},

Additionally, general aviation is now the largest source of lead emitted to the 45 atmosphere. The accuracy of modeled lead impacts from general aviation airports is unclear due 46 to uncertainties in both emissions estimation and dispersion modeling. It is important to 47 understand how well such modeling can perform when there is limited data on the aircraft 48 activities at an airport. This study evaluated the level of accuracy that can be achieved by using 49 aggregate activity information and using simple assumptions about the nature of activities to 50 estimate impacts at an airport with lead monitoring. 51 Dispersion modeling of general aviation lead emissions was performed for Centennial 52 Airport to estimate near-field impacts from airport operations in 2011. Emissions were estimated 53 using the Federal Aviation Administration's Air Traffic Activity System and Emission and 54 Dispersion Modeling System (EDMS). The annual emission estimates for 2011 was 0.43 tons, 55 which is much lower than the 0.73 tons estimated by the 2008 National Emissions Inventory. 56 Sensitivity analyses were conducted by varying several emission parameters. Modeled 57 concentrations at the on-site lead sampler were quite sensitive to the amount of run-up emissions. 58 Concentrations modeled with Automated Surface Observing System meteorology have greater 59 correlation with on-site measured values than concentrations modeled with Integrated Surface 60 Hourly meteorology.

abstract = {The continuous descent approach (CDA) has long been known as a fuel- efficient procedure because it eliminates level flights at low altitudes. However, many studies that examine fuel savings fail to consider the increased separation uncertainties that accompany CDA and that may cause extra fuel consumption for safe spacing. This study evaluates the fuel benefits of CDA at Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia and takes into account the delays that result from conflict resolutions. Fuel burn is estimated by using a corrected thrust- specific fuel consumption model that is designed specially for descent. The conflict-free CDAs are determined in such a way that total arrival delays are minimized in each look-ahead time window. Resultant delays are converted to speed advisory or air-holding commands executed in cruise phase to account for the impact of increased separations in CDAs. The fuel consumption of CDA is compared with that of real step-down trajectories extracted from radar track data. Results show that execut- ing CDA to avoid conflicts does not guarantee fuel savings for individual arriving flights, but overall fuel consumption at the airport is reduced. The estimated fuel savings is less than that observed in the terminal airspace only because deconfliction entails extra fuel consumption for delay absorption beyond the immediate terminal airspace.},

The field experiment was conducted on five test vehicles along a section of Interstate 81 that was comprised of ±4{\%} uphill and downhill grade sections. Using an Onboard Diagnostic II reader, instantaneous fuel consumption rates and other driving parameters were collected with and without the CCC system enabled. The collected data were compared with regard to fuel economy, throttle control, and travel time. The results demonstrate that CCC enhances vehicle fuel economy by 3.3 percent on average relative to manual driving, however this difference was not found to be statistically significant at a 5 percent significance level. The results demonstrate that CCC driving is more efficient on downhill versus uphill sections. In addition, the study demonstrates that an ECC system can produce fuel savings ranging between 8 and 16 percent with increases in travel times ranging between 3 and 6 percent. These benefits appear to be largest for heavier vehicles (SUVs).},

Stein and Sussman 2 ABSTRACT 34 35 Globalization and the interconnectivity of the economy have magnified the role of regions, 36 restructuring social and economic relationships into networks that span increasing distances. At 37 the same time, greater attention is due to localized urban quality, as non-vehicular modes and 38 compact forms of development become critical in an environmentally conscious world. Within 39 this context, increasing interest and adoption of high-speed rail (HSR)—a mode that addresses 40 multiple scales—is unsurprising. HSR technology is used both to respond to existing trends of 41 increased interconnectivity between urban centers and to enhance economic connections within 42 regions and mega-regions. 43 HSR has the unique ability to enable long-distance commuting across discontinuous 44 regions that are far enough apart so as not to be adequately integrated by auto travel. This new 45 geography of daily experiences has important potential implications for governance and relations 46 among cities. 47 Using Portugal as a case study, this paper examines the relationship between HSR 48 development and new models of spatial organization and governance. Based on interviews with 49 national and local officials, we discuss ways in which HSR planning is changing attitudes 50 towards regional identity and urban governance, including: the integration of national entities 51 into local planning processes, the potential for new models of commuting, and the role of HSR as 52 an exogenous catalyst for regional cooperation. 53 The case study reveals how HSR can serve as a catalyst for governments to rethink 54 regional identity, intergovernmental relationships, and competitive positioning. The prospect of 55 HSR implementation raises the profile of potential intraregional complementarity and highlights 56 the importance of inter-governmental relationships. 57 58 59 60 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {For bicycling networks to attract the mainstream population, a critical attribute is low-stress connectivity, that is, providing routes between people's origins and destinations that do not require cyclists to use links that exceed their tolerance for traffic stress, and that do not involve an undue level of detour. A set of criteria are proposed by which road segments, intersection approaches, and intersection crossings can be classified into four levels of traffic stress (LTS), of which LTS 2, based on Dutch bikeway design criteria, represents the traffic stress that most adults will tolerate. As a case study, every street in San Jose, California was classified by LTS. Maps in which only lower stress links are displayed reveal a city divided into islands within which low-stress bicycling is possible, but separated from one another by barriers that can only be crossed using high stress links. Such maps can help guide network development by revealing barriers such as arterial streets that lack intersections with both safe crossing provision and low-stress approaches. A summary measure of connectivity, the connectivity ratio for a given LTS, is the fraction of daily trips connected at that LTS. For San Jose, the fraction of work trips up to 6 miles long that are connected at LTS 2 is 4.7{\%}. This figure would almost triple by implementing a modest slate of improvements aimed at connecting low-stress streets and paths with each other.},

This paper provides an assessment of such shuttles in New Jersey by focusing on services funded by diverse entities. The assessment is made regarding the characteristics of the shuttle corridors, the shuttle users, the employers of the shuttle users, and the work sites. The research involved corridor-level analysis with census block group data and analyses of survey data from shuttle users. The study showed that the " Last Mile " shuttles predominantly serve low-income and carless workers who work for large companies located in highly suburban areas not easily accessible by conventional transit modes. Many of the companies that hire the shuttle users are in the blue-collar sectors such as manufacturing and warehousing. The study shows that the shuttle users are highly dependent on the shuttles for commuting purposes. However, they spend a disproportionately longer time commuting than average workers in New Jersey. The research indicates that because of the nature of the employers served and the mismatch between the characteristics of the shuttle users and the areas served by shuttles, there will be a constant need for shuttles.},

Consecutive averaging periods of one to three multiples of the response time are used to compare two semiempirical physically based modeling schemes. One scheme is based on internally observable variables (IOVs), such as engine speed and manifold absolute pressure, while the other is based on externally observable variables (EOVs), such as speed, acceleration, and road grade. For NO, HC, and CO emission rates, the average R(2) ranged from 0.41 to 0.66 for the former and from 0.17 to 0.30 for the latter. The EOV models have R(2) for CO(2) of 0.43 to 0.79 versus 0.99 for the IOV models. The models are sensitive to episodic events in driving cycles such as high acceleration. Intervehicle and fleet average modeling approaches are compared; the former account for microscale variations that might be useful for some types of assessments. EOV-based models have practical value for traffic management or simulation applications since IOVs usually are not available or not used for emission estimation.},

abstract = {Unlike other types of controlled intersections, drivers do not always comply with the " yield to pedestrian " sign at the roundabouts. This paper aims to identify the contributing factors affecting the likelihood of driver yielding to pedestrians at two-lane roundabouts. It further models the likelihood of driver yielding based on these factors using logistic regression. The models have been applied to 1150 controlled pedestrian crossings at entry and exit legs of two-lane approaches of six roundabouts across the country. The logistic regression models developed support prior research that the likelihood of driver yielding at the entry leg of roundabouts is higher than at the exit. Drivers tend to yield to pedestrians carrying a white cane more often than to sighted pedestrians. Drivers traveling in the far lane, relative to pedestrian location, have a lower probability of yielding to a pedestrian. As the speed increases the probability of driver yielding decreases. At the exit leg of the roundabout, drivers turning right from the adjacent lane have a lower propensity of yielding than drivers coming from other directions. The findings of this paper further suggest that although there has been much debate on pedestrian right-of-way laws and distinction between pedestrian waiting positions (in the street versus at the curb), this factor does not have a significant impact on driver yielding rate. The logistic regression models also quantify the effect of each of these factors on propensity of driver yielding. The models include variables which are specific to each study location and explain the impact size of each study location on probability of yielding. The models generated in this research will be useful to transportation professionals and researchers interested in understanding the factors that impact driver yielding at modern roundabouts. The results of the research can be used to isolate factors that may increase yielding (such as lower roundabout approach speeds), and can feasibly be incorporated into microsimulation algorithms to model driver yielding at roundabouts.},

The gait parameters are automatically extracted from the pedestrian walking speed profile. Computer vision techniques are used for the automatic detection and tracking of pedestrians in an open (uncontrolled) environment. The classification is undertaken by using a simple k nearest neighbor algorithm. For demonstration, two case studies are used: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and Oakland, California. For gender, correct classification rates of 78{\%} and 81{\%} were achieved for the Vancouver and Oakland case studies, respectively. Gender classification for the Vancouver case study considered pedestrians walking alone or in groups, and the Oakland case study gender classification considered only pedestrians walking alone. Pedestrian age classification resulted in a correct classification rate of 86{\%} for the Oakland case study. Another classification measure, the kappa statistic, showed that the classification results were statistically significant beyond what is expected by chance. The method has the advantages of relying only on the pedestrian speed profile and using a simple classification algorithm.},

abstract = {The importance of freight transportation modeling and forecasting to better address planning issues is well recognized by policy makers. Compared to advancement in travel demand modeling for passenger travel, however, current freight demand modeling methods are not yet in the adequate levels to assess increasingly complex and important planning and policy issues. Three most important players in freight demand modeling are (a) shippers, (b) planners, and (c) policy (decision) makers who have different objectives. Past research is limited in proposing a unified methodology to address the objective of each player and to assess performance of transportation networks under conditions to achieve such objectives.In this paper, freight demand modeling is designed to address each objective of the three players in a multimodal transportation network. A freight transportation model that combines three geographic scales-national, state, and local-is proposed and developed to capture different characteristics of short- and long-distance freight flows with a focus on state-level modeling in Maryland. Data for the model include freight flows by commodity and by Freight Analysis Framework (FAF) zones, which are further disaggregated to Statewide Modeling Zones in Maryland; a transportation network with detailed link level attributes; user costs in addition to all details needed for the travel demand model. In the modeling framework autos are simulated simultaneously with trucks in a multi-class user equilibrium traffic assignment. The results demonstrate the network performance and key information on travel characteristics for each player. The proposed tool can be used for freight travel demand modeling for analyzing impacts of policies at state, county and local levels. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The paper presents a methodology for correlating the radius of horizontal curve (R) and the superelevation rate (e) when the radius is above the minimum. The method proposed, implements the radial utilization friction factor (f R) concept. The relationship between e and R was established by assuming linear or parabolic relationship between the superelevation rate and the radial friction coefficient and generating e-f R distribution factors ($\gamma$ L , $\gamma$ P) correspondingly. The proposed models are sensitive to the superelevation policy by applying the desired maximum superelevation rate that is appropriate with the design speed. The results were compared to the e-R relationships recommended by the United States policy on geometric design of highways (AASHTO): method 5 (for high speed facilities) and method 1. Both models generated intermediate radii results between AASHTO method 5 and method 1. The highest difference between AASHTO method 5 and the proposed models and between AASHTO method 1 and the linear model occurs when the radius reaches its maximum value for a minimum superelevation (e min =2{\%}). The linear model resulted in lower radii design values than the parabolic model and is therefore superior in terms of topography harmonization and right of way.},

The primary objective is to minimize the total passenger waiting time. The mean transit demand at each stop and the travel time between neighboring bus stops are assumed as known information. An example route showing an application of the proposed model is presented. Comparisons between waiting times under different network scenarios have been made using the example route. The results obtained from the analyses are promising and thus the method can be implemented as a substitute to real time control strategies when implementation cost is an issue as the latter is relatively expensive. It may also be used in coordination with the real time control strategies to reduce holding time. In addition, it can assist transit users in planning their trips in advance so that misleading travel information is reduced. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]},

abstract = {In urban road networks, the use of real-time adaptive traffic signal control systems faces two typical challenges. First, various sources of uncertainty and disturbance can significantly degrade the accuracy of real-time flow predictions. Second, the optimization of vehicle flows must also give active attention to other transportation modes such as bus transit and pedestrian flows. In this paper, these challenges are investigated in the context of a recently implemented system called SURTRAC (Scalable URban TRAffic Control), which has now been running continuously in an actual urban environment for more than a year. SURTRAC takes a decentralized, schedule-driven approach to real-time traffic control and its design aims at urban (grid-like) networks with multiple, competing dominant flows that shift through the day. Motivated by observations of the system in operation, several strategies are proposed for strengthening the basic SURTRAC algorithm to better deal with real-world uncertainties and disruptive events, as well as multi-modal traffic demands. We evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies using both simulations and analysis of data collected from the pilot deployment.},

abstract = {Studies of the relationship between characteristics of horizontal curves and accident rate have been reported in several countries. The characteristic most often studied is the radius of a horizontal curve. Functions describing the relationship between the radius of horizontal curves and accident rate have been developed in Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Great Britain, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, and the United States. Other characteristics of horizontal curves that have been studied include deflection angle, curve length, the presence of transition curves, super-elevation in curves and distance to adjacent curves. This paper assesses the international transferability of mathematical functions (accident modification functions) that have been developed to relate the radius of horizontal curves to their accident rate. The main research problem is whether these functions are similar, which enhances international transferability, or dissimilar, which reduces international transferability. Accident modification functions for horizontal curve radius developed in the countries listed above are synthesised. The sensitivity of the functions to other characteristics of curves than radius is examined. Accident modification functions developed in different countries have important similarities. The functions diverge with respect to accident rate in the sharpest curves. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {Tram-train systems are an evolution of light rail in which the vehicle can run on the tram tracks that have been implemented specifically for the system, but it can enter, at a given point, into conventional railway tracks that have been implemented for and are used by conventional railway vehicles. In this way, urban light rail services can be extended further away from the city center, avoiding part of the cost of new infrastructure, and offering a seamless link between the urban center and the suburban areas. The fact of running on different kinds of tracks, with different types of superstructure and geometric characteristics, as well as different standards in relation to safety and other subjects, makes the design of tram-train systems especially complex. The aim of this paper is to describe some of the most important technological challenges for the implementation of C{\'{a}}diz Bay tram-train. It is the first tram-train developed over Spanish conventional railway tracks belonging to ADIF (Administrador de Infraestructuras Ferroviarias, Administrator of Railway Infrastructures). Some of the main technological features of this tram-train are: 1,668 mm track-gauge, with the possibility of a future transformation to 1,435 mm; a partially low-floor tram-train vehicle, to cope with the two kinds of stations/stops (urban and railway ones); a tram-train wheel with wide flange, to match the conventional railway tracks, which leads to wide-grooved rails in the new urban stretches of the network; dual-voltage vehicle 3000-750 V dc; among other aspects that will be presented in the paper.},

abstract = {Automated bicycle renting systems have seen tremendous growth over the last few years, with many 30 cities implementing systems. Washington, DC, has one of the largest systems of bikesharing in the US 31 and recently made all their usage data publically available for analysis. One issue with promoting 32 bicycling as a reliable alternative mode of travel is the impact of unfavorable weather conditions on 33 usage. In theory, usage can be affected by colder weather, precipitation, and excessive heat. The research 34 presented here analyzes the effect of weather on the use of the Washington, DC, bikeshare system. 35 Hourly weather data, including temperature, rainfall, snow, wind, fog, and humidity levels are linked to 36 hourly usage data and statistical models linking both number of users and duration of use are estimated. 37 Further, we evaluate trips from bikeshare stations within one quarter mile of Metro (subway) stations at 38 times when Metro is operating. This allows us to determine whether Metro serves as a back-up option 39 when weather conditions are unfavorable for bicycling. Results show that cold temperatures, rain, and 40 high humidity levels reduce both the likelihood of using bikeshare and the duration of trips. Trips taken 41 from bikeshare stations proximate to Metro stations are affected more by rain than trips not proximate to 42 Metro stations and less likely when it is dark. This information is useful for understanding bicycling 43 behavior and also for those planning bikeshare systems in other cities.},

abstract = {The research presented in this paper analyzes the merging version of the continuous green T-intersection (CGT), an alternative intersection design–control that allows certain lanes along the main street to bypass three-way intersections, with side street traffic merging onto the main road. A comprehensive model encompassing 2,445 unique combinations of intersection conditions was run to compare the merging CGT with the standard three-way signalized intersection. The study demonstrated significant intersection improvements over conventional traffic signal timing. Specifically, significant benefits were observed for the merging CGT in total delay, fuel usage, and emissions of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. In addition, an eco- nomic analysis showed significant user savings associated with CGT control. Because of higher traffic volumes on the main road than the side street, savings for vehicles on the main street outweighed any costs associated with side street traffic merging into the main street flow. These findings strongly support the decision to implement the merging CGT over standard three-way signalized intersection control. Before this work, no comprehensive model that considered the environmental and economic implications of any form of the CGT had been published, and no comprehensive model specifically focused on the merging version of},

As equipment and data storage costs continue to decline, the collection of data through in situ probe-type vehicles is likely to become more popu- lar, and thus there is a need to assess the feasibility of these data for the modeling of driver car-following behavior. This study focused on the costs and benefits of naturalistic data for use in mobility applications. Any proj- ect seeking to use naturalistic data should plan for a complex and poten- tially costly data reduction process to extract mobility data. A case study was based on data from the database of the 100-Car Study conducted by the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute. One thousand minutes' worth of data comprising more than 2,000 car-following events recorded across eight drivers from a section of multilane highway located near Washing- ton, D.C., was compiled. The collected event data were used to calibrate four different car-following models, and a comparative analysis of model performance was conducted. The results of model calibration are given in tabular format, displayed on the fundamental diagram, and shown with sample event charts of speed versus time and headway versus time. When compared with the Gipps, intelligent driver, and Gaxis–Herman–Rothery models, the Rakha–Pasumarthy–Adjerid model was found to perform best in matching individual drivers and in matching aggregate results.},

abstract = {Many freeways are highly congested. One reason is that traffic demand is simply too high for the current infrastructure so that congestion always arises at the same bottlenecks during rush hours. Another reason for traffic congestion is incidents, where the freeway is partially or totally blocked due to accidents. Congestion caused by recurrent bottlenecks can be solved by reconstructing the infrastructure to increase the number of lanes or to create new freeways. Those measures, however, take years to come into effect and are above all very expensive. Travelers can be incentivized to travel by another mode of transportation or to travel outside of the rush hour, for instance by road pricing. These mobility measures have a more immediate effect than reconstructing the infrastructure. A solution to reduce congestion caused by either recurrent bottlenecks or incidents with a faster effect is to intervene by controlling the traffic flow. Traffic management centers been established to monitor the traffic conditions of a freeway network. If traffic conditions deteriorate, the traffic management center can influence traffic by activating control measures such as Dynamic Traffic Management (DTM). Multiple DTM measures have been developed and applied successfully over the past decades. A common example is route guidance, which informs travelers about incidents on their way and suggests alternative routes around the incident. Another example are ramp meters, which are installed on on-ramps to the freeway; they restrict the inflow into the freeway to prevent the freeway traffic from breaking down into congestion. A further example is the peak-hour lane, which is an extra lane that is opened for traffic during rush hour. The current practice of DTM is that it operates on the traffic flow as a whole, disregarding the different vehicle classes of which it is composed. This thesis expands DTM to take vehicle-class specific properties into account. The effects of different vehicle classes on traffic flow are analyzed and vehicle-class specific control strategies are developed and tested in simulations to improve the traffic both in regular and incidental conditions},

abstract = {Transport planners around the world are currently searching for innovative strategies for customer-friendly and efficient public transport systems. An important element in this pro-cess is the understanding of the passengers' valuation of different elements of public transport trips. A challenge associated with this is the observation of the actual passenger behaviour in all its complexity. One way to address this challenge is to use person-based GPS devices for the observation of the public transport connections chosen by passengers. GPS-based studies have become increasingly popular in the last two decades and their advantages for observing and modelling car and bicycle route choice have been shown by many studies. However, for public transport connection choice the processing routines to extract the chosen connections and their relevant attributes from the GPS traces have so far been missing. This paper reports on a first implementation of such a procedure called " public transport map-matching " . The basic idea is to first employ a car map-matching procedure for each stage of a public transport trip to determine the route within the public transport network. Then, this route is used to find the most likely public transport line and the respective boarding and alighting stops. Finally, the stages of the public transport trip are joined together including the access and egress stages by walk or bicycle. The procedure is tested using the data from an ongoing GPS study in Zurich – an area in Switzerland with a very dense public transport network.},

However, conventional estimation techniques have been used typically without a careful consideration to some unique properties of pseudo panel data. This paper shows that ignoring these properties potentially leads to estimation bias or inefficiency not observed in genuine panel data. The methodology of a Monte Carlo experiment is used with scenarios that are designed to generate, under conditions of limited observations, various data possessing pseudo panel data characteristics, and evaluates the performances of various estimators using the simulation results. This research found that the large between-group variation of the exogenous variable and the variance of unobserved group effects in pseudo panel data are the primary causes of estimation bias and inefficiency. Other factors such as cohort sizes and non-spherical errors have a smaller impact on the estimators' performance. An empirical application using Sydney Household Travel Survey data is also presented to illustrate the simulation findings.},

This paper presents 4 a comprehensive analysis of a real-world fleet of 125 instrumented PHEV prototypes deployed 5 in the United States over a one-year period. First, the trial is introduced and the patterns of 6 travel, charging behavior and energy consumption observed are analyzed. Second, a mixed logit 7 model of the decision to charge at the end of each trip is estimated. The results indicate that 8 charging is most likely after the day's last trip, when ending at home, and when there are more 9 than 3 hours before the next trip, although significant heterogeneity exists between drivers. To 10 the authors' knowledge this is the first application of a discrete choice model to the empirical 11 analysis of plug-in vehicle charging. Third, the performance of this fleet assuming different 12 vehicle designs and charging patterns is simulated. Aggressive opportunistic charging after 13 every trip would result in approximately the same fuel savings as increasing the battery size by a 14 factor of five. However, fast charging would provide only marginal changes in energy use given 15 the observed utilization patterns.},

abstract = {Identifying and minimizing potential errors in household travel surveys can facilitate collecting more representative and accurate data. Through a comparison of two recent travel surveys with census data, this paper presents how sampling, noncoverage, nonresponse, and measurement errors work their way into surveys. The 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) Add-On in Virginia was implemented with a comprehensive survey instrument and random-digit-dial (RDD) sampling. The 2008 National Capital Region Household Travel Survey collected behavioral data with a concise instrument, while adopting address-based sampling (ADD). Focusing on a common area of Northern Virginia, this study examined differences in sociodemographics and travel behavior of the extracted samples (N = 597 and N = 3,581, respectively). Results show that the ADD survey collected data on more single-person households, younger individuals, and Hispanics and Mexicans, which are generally identified as hard-to-reach groups. A comparison of the two samples with the census data shows that the ADD sample was more representative of the population and area, partly because of the inclusion of mobile phone–only households (28{\%}), which were not fully covered in RDD. To quantify a measurement error, this study estimated rigorous statistical models in regard to reported trip frequency. Results show that the NHTS captured 10{\%} more trips, partly as a result of diary instructions and the presence of walking and biking questions in the instrument. Details of other errors and implications for reducing key survey errors are discussed.},

abstract = {Learning from the success of reservation systems in industries including airlines, passenger train and hotel, a roadway reservation concept has been considered by transportation engineers. Traditionally, vehicles are allowed to use freeways on a first-come-first-serve basis. In the proposed roadway reservation system, vehicles need to reserve a spot on the freeway in advance, which allows them to use some segments of the freeway within a certain amount of time. By controlling the number of tickets issued by the roadway reservation system, this new concept can maintain a certain level of service on the freeway. Emerging Vehicle-2-Infrastructure and Vehicle-2-Vehicle communication technologies make the roadway reservation concept feasible. In this study, a proof-of-concept test is conducted to investigate the potential benefits of the proposed roadway reservation system. A VISSIM traffic network with a 20-mile long two lane freeway and some arterials serves as the simulation test-bed. The proposed reservation algorithm is applied to a carefully designed baseline, and the results of the reservation scenario and baseline are compared. The reservation scenario turns out to outperform the baseline in terms of total delay time and emissions. For example, when travel demand is 30{\%} higher than capacity, the total delay time is 58.6{\%} less and CO2 emissions is 18.3{\%} less in the reservation scenario than the baseline. Although some practical issues are not considered in this simplified proof-of-concept study, the proposed roadway reservation system outperforms the baseline so much, which provides strong evidences that the proposed reservation system shows promising future and deserves more attention including feasibility test for field implementation.},

abstract = {With the recent advances in active transportation and demand management, variable speed limits (VSLs) have been identified as an active traffic management strategy for improving freeway mobility and safety. Several heuristic VSL strategies have been proposed and evaluated. This paper proposes a model predictive VSL control strategy and evaluates its safety and mobility impacts. The strategy uses second-order traffic flow models to predict the traffic state and to provide a speed for optimizing corridor operational performance. A sensitivity analysis of the VSL update frequency and the safety constraints for the VSL strategy was performed to determine the best scenario in terms of safety and mobility. A stretch of Whitemud Drive, an urban freeway corridor in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, was selected as the study area. The proposed VSL strategy was implemented in the microsimulation platform with a special software module. A real-time collision prediction model was developed for the same study area by using a matched case-control logistic regression technique to estimate the collision probability for each scenario. The results indicated that the proposed VSL control strategy can improve safety by approximately 50{\%} and mobility by approximately 30{\%}. A VSL update frequency of 5 min and a maximum speed difference of 10 km/h between successive time steps yielded the best performances. This finding can be useful for field implementation of VSL control.},

abstract = {"Trip Generation" is the standard reference for assessing the impacts of new development on traffic congestion and the environment in the U.S. However, a comparison to household surveys suggests that "Trip Generation" overestimates trips by 55{\%} – likely because its data represent a biased sample of development in the U.S. Moreover, the data in "Trip Generation" are ill-suited to many analyses of traffic impacts, imposition of development impact fees and studies of greenhouse gas emissions, because they do not account for substitution effects. Most trips to new developments are not new, but involve households reshuffling trips from other destinations. These twin problems – theoretical and practical – help reinforce the dominance of the private automobile, and are likely to lead to excessive roadway infrastructure that is unnecessary in practice.},

It is the integrated package of complementary policies that explains why public transport in Germany can compete so well with the private car, even among affluent households. Conversely, it is the lack of complementary policies that explains the continuing struggle of public transport in the USA.},

In addition, different types of activities are significantly associated with many different scores of feelings with some of them varying by time of day in a way that is as expected (being tired and in pain increases as the day progresses) but not uniformly across indicators of subjective well-being. Travel as a passenger is consistently a pleasant activity while traveling alone is associated with both positive and negati ve feelings depending on other circumstances. In addition, interaction with social networks is an important correlate of episodic feelings. Strong correlation between person and household characteristics and episodic reports, on the other hand, is also found. Moreover, the role enacted within a household and companionship in activities are also important correlates of feelings. Where persons live (region of the US) and li ving arrangements (retiree communities and elderly housing) are also correlates of emotions.},

Here, a tunable infrared laser differential absorption spectrometer (TILDAS) remote sensor was used to gather the first on-road measurements of N2O and NO2, and the first high precision measurements of NO. NO was detected with a sensitivity of 5 ppm, which allowed even Ultra Low Emission Vehicles to be measured. On-road accuracy was demonstrated by comparing the TILDAS results with the on-board measurements of a heavy-duty diesel truck (HDDT). The remote sensor could operate with an optical path length of 88 meters, more than five times that of competing instruments. The NO and N2O emission distributions of passenger cars (PCs) and light-duty trucks (LDTs) were found to be highly skewed, while the NO emission distribution for HDDTs was not. N2O emissions from PCs and LDTs are estimated to contribute between 0.5{\%} and 0.9{\%} to U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Thesis},

Many cities are beginning to use innovative techniques 3 and design treatments, such as parklets, to reclaim some of the excess road space for pedestrian uses. 4 Parklets emerge from the low-cost conversion of small and underutilized residual spaces originally 5 devoted to cars into spaces for the passive or active recreation of people. The idea of the parklet in its 6 current expression emerged in San Francisco in the form of temporary, one-day installations intended to 7 extend the social life and pedestrian space of the sidewalk into parking spaces. Cities including 8 Philadelphia, Long Beach, Oakland, and many others have initiated or are in the process of planning 9 parklet programs. This research examines how cities have implemented their parklet programs including 10 considerations for departments involved, understanding permitting issues, and setting design guidelines. 11 Additionally, the research examines specific sites to investigate how designers have translated design 12 guidelines into safe, comfortable, and well-used spaces for people to enjoy.

This paper documents the design and development of a prototype web-based data 15 distribution system for brownfield site redevelopment in the urban Midwest using Toledo, Ohio 16 as the primary study area. Many Midwestern cities have experienced industrial decline that has 17 led to a preponderance of brownfield sites, particularly in poorer urban core areas. Brownfield 18 sites are typically situated along existing and often deteriorating infrastructure. Greater efficiency 19 in economic development can be gained by linking transportation infrastructure resources with 20 brownfield remediation. As such, communities gain countless health, safety, environmental and 21 revenue benefits. 22 A lack of data resources is one major barrier to redevelopment of these sites. The system 23 developed here seeks to not only reduce that barrier by providing a user interface and 24 information delivery system but also to support smart growth through the identification of 25 brownfield sites and to link these sites to transportation infrastructure resources through the use 26 of a geographic information system (GIS). It is envisioned that this interactive web-based GIS 27 will be used as a user-centered decision support tool by policymakers' and stakeholders' to 28 augment site selection and transportation infrastructure investment decisions in support of smart 29 growth efforts.

The small size and maneuverability of e-bikes that are assets in cities in China may not be as important in the U.S., where cities are built to accommodate cars, but their potential as a substitute for cars makes them an important part of the discussion around sustainable transportation. In this study we conducted 27 interviews with e-bike users in the greater Sacramento area in which we asked participants about the reasons why they chose to invest in an e-bike, the ways in which they use their e-bikes, positive and negative aspects of using e-bikes, and reactions from friends and family members. Several important themes emerged from the interviews. The functional characteristics of e-bikes, particularly greater speed and acceleration than conventional bicycles with less exertion, contribute to several positive aspects of their use, including enabling more people to bicycle, more trips to be made by bicycle, and more fun for their users. The result, for these users, was an overall decrease in driving, with some users getting rid of their car altogether. Negative aspects cited by users include security concerns, safety concerns, unwieldiness, and range anxiety. Participants also discussed several misperceptions on the part of non-users that could inhibit their adoption. These results provide insights for the development of e-bike policy and guidance for future research.},

Closely 3 spaced intersections are commonly seen at signal-controlled interchanges like diamond 4 interchanges and partial cloverleaf interchanges. For a better estimation of capacities of closely 5 spaced intersections, it is necessary to have an accurate model to calculate the additional lost 6 time. The Chapter of Interchange Ramp Terminals in the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 7 provides a model for estimating additional lost time due to the presence of a downstream queue 8 at closely spaced intersections. However, the HCM model does not provide a very accurate 9 estimation when the distance to the downstream queue is short. In this paper, a new model is 10 developed for an accurate estimation of additional lost time at closely spaced intersections, 11 considering different factors that are not addressed in the HCM model or in previous research, 12 like queue discharge pattern and traffic flow patterns. Simulation results indicate that the new 13 model provides a more accurate estimation of additional lost time compared with HCM model in 14 conditions when the distance to the downstream link is limited.},

In this study, we use time geography to provide a theoretical framework for examining the effects of time-varying fluctuations in gasoline prices and their relationship to traffic safety in a case study of Mississippi from April 2004 to December 2010. Application of time geography theory suggests that gasoline prices act as one type of capability constraint of the space-time path. As gasoline prices increase (that is, as the capability constraint becomes stronger), we hypothesize traffic crash rates decrease, and they decrease more for groups for whom the constraint is stronger. The results corroborate the hypotheses and suggest that gasoline prices have stronger effects on reducing less severe crashes and negligible effects on reducing fatal crashes. Gasoline price effects on reducing crashes start at a 9-month lag, peak at a 12-month lag, and diminish after an 18-month lag. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {This paper documents a driving simulator project that identified driver lane changing behavior for six topics (research questions) related to freeway guide signing at complex interchanges. Forty-two drivers from rural and urban areas of Texas used a desktop driving simulator to navigate fictional destinations by following test guide signs. Driver peformance measures included lane change proximity to interchanges and number of unnecessary lane changes. In addition, subjective measures of comfort and confidence were obtained. Almost all participants made the correct decision to exit or stay on the freeway with an option lane; however, many unnecessary lane changes were made with each of the three sign sets. For the sign set that had an arrow per lane design when signing closely spaced interchanges, all participants made correct lane change decisions. While several incorrect lane changes were made for each sign set used to evaluate signing for a Y split, the sign set that used split exit signs at all three sign bridge locations had the fewest, and was judged superior. The topics that evaluated if it is better to fill an advance single sign with supplemental wayfinding information, or to spread the information among multiple signs found that spreading information about the next exits across multiple signs on a single bridge may have unintended consequences if the sign for another exit is located to the left of the preferred lane. The topic that evaluated driver understanding of left exit signs found minimal difference between the two sign sets tested. BACKGROUND As transportation agencies struggle with adding freeway lane capacity in times of limited resources and shrinking right-of-way, new interchange designs are being built beyond the traditional diamond and cloverleaf. Freeway interchanges with lane drops, double lane exits with optional lanes, and other unusual geometries have been the subject of many studies concerning signs and markings. These geometries violate driver expectations and may result in late lane changes and erratic movements near the gore. (1, 2, 3, 4)},

It is, therefore, hard for surveyors to decide on survey budgets; lower ones may generate unusable results and higher ones are costly. Therefore, a method to evaluate and improve survey accuracy without increasing (and possibly even lowering) cost could be highly beneficial. In this paper, an analytical model is built to determine the effects of survey budget on survey accuracy in a systematic and generalized way. The relationship between the survey budget, the estimated average parking duration (i.e., the survey result), and the survey error is illustrated through dimensional analysis. On the basis of this analysis, objective criteria are found to evaluate patrol surveys, a budget test is provided to find the optimal survey budget, and a correction method is proposed to improve survey accuracy. Moreover, simulations are run on the basis of more realistic assumptions,...},

abstract = {Laramie County was selected in accordance with the legislative directive as part of a project to determine the impact of the oil and gas industry on county roads. This paper takes into account the impact gravel roads. With a lacking road and bridge budget, Laramie county is only just keeping up with this impact. In order to receive additional funding from the state legislature, actual impact needs to be assessed. The different distresses and ride quality of all the county gravel roads showed that, on average, the roads were in good condition, no matter the level of impact. However, the cost to keep the impacted roads in this condition came at a much greater price. By modeling the characteristics of the gravel roads in Laramie County, a better understanding of the degradation taking place and the main causes were examined. This was done in hopes that the information from this model will then be used for more efficient maintenance strategies and a more cost effective use of the county's budget so that the county may continue to keep up with the energy impact. The processed developed in this study is very useful for other local agencies impacted by energy development.},

abstract = {This paper presents the results of a multiple-case study, designed to explore, reveal, and consider evolving techniques used for managing quality assurance systems, especially in cases of alternative forms of delivery, such as construction manager/general contractor (CMGC), Design-Build (DB), and Pubic Private Partnerships (PPP) forms. The study discovered many notable quality assurance methods, including methods that take advantage of design-phase contractor involvement and methods that respond to the increasing use of non-agency designers. The study of ten distinct projects that cross four different project delivery methods found eighteen notable quality assurance methods that generally are not applied in the traditional Design-Bid-Build (DBB) form of contracting. These methods exist in both the pre-award and post-award phases of the projects, and several of the methods were found to be used on more than one form of project delivery. These innovative quality assurance methods may be viewed as tools that a project manager should consider when developing a whole quality assurance system on either a traditional DBB project or on a project that uses one of the alternative forms of contracting. Or—these methods may be used as starting points for further quality assurance innovations. TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

While previous research has considered the effects of various strategies on running time, there has been little effort to understand their impacts on reliability of service. This article examines the impacts of various improvement strategies, implemented by Soci{\'{e}}t{\'{e}} de Transport de Montr{\'{e}}al (STM) along one of its heavily utilized bus routes, on running time deviation from schedule, variation in running time, and variation in running time deviation from schedules. These strategies have been implemented at different time points over the past three years. They include, chronologically ordered, implementation of a smart card fare collection system, operation of a reserved bus lane, introduction of limited-stop bus service, use of articulated buses, and operation of transit signal priority (TSP). This study uses automatic vehicle location (AVL) and automatic passenger count (APC) systems at the bus route segment level of analysis. The introduction of a smart card fare collection system increased bus running time and service variation. Articulated buses, limited-stop bus service and reserved bus lanes have mixed effects on variation in comparison to the running time changes, while TSP did not show an impact on variations in our study. This study offers transit agencies and schedulers a better understanding of the effects of various strategies on different aspects of service variation, which are important components of transit service reliability. {\textcopyright} 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.},

This study first applied a spatial-oriented mixed-3 integer mathematical programming model using GIS data to generate a least-cost solution of the 4 feedstock supply system and the location of a single-feedstock biorefinery in three different 5 regions of the state, i.e. east, central and west Tennessee. Based on the feedstock draw area and 6 the road links for hauling feedstock to the biorefinery in each region determined in the model, 7 US Environment Protection Agency's Mobile Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model was 8 then used to estimate the baseline emissions for 2010 in the study region and additional 9 emissions generated from hauling feedstock. Results showed that the degree of feedstock draw 10 area dispersion and topography of draw area around the biorefinery site have important impact 11 on the emissions produced from hauling feedstock to the biorefinery. Based on feedstock plant-12 gate cost and hauling emissions, switchgrass is more suitable than energy sorghum for biofuel 13 production in Tennessee. The larger draw area associated with energy sorghum creates higher 14 vehicle travel miles, resulting in more transportation costs and hauling emissions to the 15 biorefinery. The biorefinery with the most economic feedstock cost and the least feedstock 16 hauling emission is suggested to be sited in Robertson County in central Tennessee.},

This paper builds on earlier research to, for the first time, validate the urban design measures against pedestrian counts on 588 block faces in New York City. An effort is made to distinguish which measures, if any, influence levels of pedestrian activity after controlling for the “D” variables: development density, land use diversity, street network design, destination accessibility, distance to transit, and demographics. The urban design quality of transparency, related to windows overlooking the street, continuous building facades forming a street wall, and active street frontage, proves to have more explanatory power than any other D variable.},

abstract = {Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) remains a popular strategy to achieve environmentally sustainable infill development and auto use reduction. Typically, TOD in the United States offers retail amenities and housing catered to singles, childless couples, and empty nesters. Increasingly, municipal and regional leaders hold a vision for managing expected future growth that aims to increase equity, support households with children, and create mixed income communities that includes TOD as a core strategy. These explicitly equity-focused and family-oriented goals call for a different TOD model than has typically been developed. This new model requires an examination of the ways that TOD might attract households with children concerned with access to high quality schools, even when schools are outside the domain of traditional transportation and land use public agencies. This paper first reviews the TOD and transportation literature and its attention to households with children and issues of K-12 public schools. Reflecting on the literature, a conceptual framework of 10 core connections between TOD, households with children, and schools is hypothesized. Then, four exploratory case studies from the San Francisco Bay Area offer insights into the opportunities and tensions that practitioners face in planning and implementing TOD that might attract families. A discussion of the 10 core connections in light of the case study evidence follows. The paper concludes with policy and research recommendations.},

abstract = {In this study, we have developed a procedure to estimate bicycle link cost function parameters for use in a bicycle route choice model. A practical estimation procedure was established by formulating a bi-level optimization problem. Based on bicycle commuters' revealed preference route choices to a university campus, a linear function with an interaction cost term was found to be the best model specification. Other models that incorporated both distance and risk terms were almost as good. Model forms that used only distance or only risk were clearly inferior, indicating the importance of using both factors. In order to investigate the relative importance of travel distance and risk concern, an elasticity ratio test was conducted. The results indicate that, for the authors' database, travel distance is more important in route choice decisions. However, when perceived risk, as represented by link Bicycle Compatibility Index, reaches high levels, the role of the risk factor in bicycle route choice becomes almost as important as the distance factor. Bicyclists are then more likely to trade off increased distance for decreased perceived risk. The bi-level optimization method described in this paper provides a practical way to approximate bicyclist route choice behavior using a simple measure (distance) and the well-recognized Bicycle Compatibility Index. The resulting model can guide investments in bicycle facilities.},

abstract = {When allocating limited funds to bicycle facilities, it would be helpful to know the extent to which a new facility will be used. If a bicycle lane is added to a street, how many bicyclists will no longer use the sidewalk? If a separate bicycle path is constructed, how many bicyclists will move from the street or sidewalk? Bicyclists were interviewed at the end of their trips and asked which part of the cross-sections along their routes they had used – on-street or off-street. This study developed a random-parameter probit model to analyze the bicyclists' facility preferences and capture the unobserved heterogeneity across the population. This model was found to be superior to a standard binary probit model and a random effects model. Sidewalk width, traffic signals, segment length, road functional class, street pavement condition, and one-way street configuration were found to be statistically significant. The compound effects of multiple variables were demonstrated by varying sidewalk width and Bicycle Compatibility Index. The results suggest that merely adding a bicycle lane does not guarantee that a significant proportion of bicyclists will switch to it. Lessons also can be drawn from marginal effects and elasticity to indicate where a particular bicycle facility would be most compatible with bicyclists' revealed choices.},

The system is also expected to have important physical impacts on station-adjacent neighborhoods and station cities, but to date, limited research exists to guide public policy efforts directing development around HSR stations. The urban design variables that may influence urban change in the context of HSR remain largely understudied. A state agency, the California High-Speed Rail Authority (CaHSRA), is charged with designing and managing the implementa- tion of the HSR network, while local station cities will be responsible for development around their stations. Although CaHSRA has issued general urban design guidelines for cities, more urban design guidance is neces- sary to address the specificities of local contexts. Most Southern California cities have not yet started station-area planning, and the few that have are focusing attention on their stations as isolated entities in the system and city. In this limited focus, the cities often ignore the possible complement that adjacent stations on the HSR corridor may provide and how the sta- tion may integrate into the city and region. A review and a content analysis of documents and guidelines issued by the CaHSRA and its consultants to guide design in station areas were conducted and 16 planners, urban designers, and public officials in Southern California's Phase One station cities were interviewed extensively. The challenges of urban design in HSR station areas are discussed, and policy recommendations are offered.},

A time-varying risk measure reflects the unique nature of transit systems: accumulation of passengers at transfer facilities, stations, and transit vehicles is dynamic and increases the vulnerability of the transit users and system to adverse events. The model is robust under uncertainty and matches security assets at stations better in the face of time-varying risk by redistributing them. The volume-dependent risk measure and subsequent deployment of security assets were developed for the transit system in Washington, D.C., to demonstrate the variable nature of risk and response. The value of considering a robust solution was demonstrated by a comparison of the strategies developed from a robust approach with those from an expected value approach. Five scenarios, designed on recent events on the system, replicate the operational conditions of the transit system for the morning peak hour period and show the effectiveness of the developed deployment strategies.},

The geographic information system, an effective and efficient tool for spatial analysis with high visualization, is used to carry out the analysis. Hot-spot analysis of maritime accidents identifies the hot spots. Buffer analysis is used to calculate accidents that occurred in coastal areas. Finally, the following two important results are obtained from the analysis. First, the identification of hot spots reveals the area around the United Kingdom as the area with the greatest number of accidents and the coastal areas around East Asian countries (such as China, Japan, and South Korea) and the Mediterranean Sea as the areas with the next highest number of accidents. These results compare well with a previously published paper. Second, maritime accidents may not frequently occur in the open sea; however, accidents frequently happen in coastal areas, with 51.1{\%} of the total accidents happening within 25 mi of the continents and 62.2{\%} within 50 mi.},

These interactions often describe day-to-day events, 3 and can include location information, making them potentially suitable for use in transportation-related analysis. 4 This paper evaluates the use of data from public social interactions on Twitter as a potential complement to traffic 5 incident data. We compare incident records from the California Highway Patrol with Twitter messages related to 6 roadway events over the same time period. Relationships between the two datasets are evaluated by visualizing the 7 density of incidents and tweets that coincide near the same location. Additionally, the content of Twitter messages is 8 weighted by its relevance to traffic incidents. This weighting is then compared to the time and space proximity of 9 the message to an incident record to determine if more vivid Twitter messages may correspond to the presence of 10 incidents. Twitter information is interesting because it is inexpensive, readily accessible, has broad geographic 11 coverage, and provides a uniquely passenger-centric perspective.

abstract = {Stairway and escalator are the main transfer facilities in the station where pedestrians make choices between them. A good understanding of pedestrian choices is helpful to raise the efficiency of transfer stations and lower the probability of disasters, such as stamps caused by congestion. This paper studies the choice behavior of pedestrians using random utility theory and floor field cellular automata. Among the factors influencing pedestrian choices, there are non-quantitative ones and quantitative ones. Thus, a method combining qualitative description and quantitative description is adopted. Subsequently, a logit model is presented to mimic the choice behaviors of pedestrians. In this model, there are three new important parameters, including familiarity, walking disutility, and time pressure. By using micro-simulation, a sensitivity analysis for these parameters is conducted. Besides, a counting rule based on the Large Number Law is presented to count the real data in transfer stations in Shanghai. After comparing the sensitivity analysis results and measurement data, several reference values of the three important parameters are obtained in un-congested and congested situations respectively. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier B.V.

ABSTRACT 1 Type-II dilemma zones are the segment of roadway approaching an intersection where drivers 2 have difficulty deciding to stop or proceed at the onset of the circular yellow (CY) indication. 3 Signalized intersection safety is improved when dilemma zones are correctly identified and steps 4 are taken to reduce the likelihood that vehicles are caught in such zones. This research purports 5 that using driving simulators as a means to collect driver response data at the onset of the CY 6 indication is a valid methodology to augment our analysis of decisions and reactions made within 7 the dilemma zone. The data obtained was compared against that from previous experiments 8 documented in the literature and the evidence suggests that driving simulation is valid for 9 describing driver behavior under the given conditions. After validating the data, fuzzy logic was 10 proposed as a tool to model driver behavior in the dilemma zone, and three models were 11 developed to describe driver behavior as it relates to the speed and position of the vehicle. These 12 models were shown to be consistent with previous research on this subject and were able to 13 predict driver behavior with up to 90{\%} accuracy.},

The present study introduces an optimization method for ATR schemes in terms of both their restriction districts and the proportion of restricted automobiles. As a Stackelberg game between traffic policy makers and road users, the ATR scheme optimization problem is established using a bi-level programming model, with the upper-level examining an ATR scheme aimed at consumers' surplus maximization under the condition of overload flow minimization, and the lower-level synthetically optimizing elastic demand, mode choice (private car, public transit and park-and-ride) and multi-class user equilibrium assignment. A genetic algorithm based on the graph theory is also proposed to solve the bi-level programming model with a gradient project algorithm for solving the lower-level model. To our knowledge, this study represents the first attempt to theoretically optimize an ATR scheme using a systematic approach with mathematical model specification. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {This paper presents a hybrid discrete choice-duration model for work activity scheduling with interactions between workers in a multiple-worker household. The model operates in discrete space with a fine level of temporal resolution. The key innovative feature of the model is the introduction of intra-household interactions through worker schedule synchronization mechanisms. The model was estimated based on a large Household Travel Survey from the San Francisco Bay Area. The estimation results confirmed that individual work schedules for workers in a multiple-worker household are subject to strong synchronization and should be modelled jointly rather than independently. In particular, workers in the same household tend to align their schedules and create time window overlaps for joint activities before and after work. Relative strength of the synchronization mechanisms proved to be a function of the person characteristics and household composition.},

abstract = {Extensive literature in the adaptive control field uses local detection avail- able from the traffic controller as input to various control models to adjust splits, cycle lengths, and offsets. All these models have implicit control objectives, which include facilitated progression, minimized stops, mini- mized delay, and equitable allocation of green time. Enormous opportuni- ties exist to incorporate probe data into the decision process with respect to when and where adaptive control can be used and which operating objec- tives are most applicable to a corridor as well as to an outcome assessment tool to evaluate the effectiveness of adaptive control. The research reported in this paper compared how probe data sources could be used to identify appropriate adaptive control objectives and to assess the performance of adaptive systems. Four case studies demonstrated how travel time data could be used to evaluate existing conditions, to evaluate the outcome of a traditional signal retiming, and to assess the feasibility of adaptive con- trol opportunities. Currently, the richest probe data sets are provided by agency-installed equipment. Given the increasing penetration of crowd- sourced probe data devices and the onset of connected vehicle infrastruc- ture, however, these sources could provide similarly rich data. This paper recommends that commercial data providers begin to develop more detailed base maps. These maps would provide richer probe data infor- mation, such as hour-by-hour statistical distributions and approach delay for signalized arterials for which the segments did not span multiple intersections. This recommendation should motivate agencies to develop more detailed specifications for probe data that will better serve their needs.},

abstract = {Market-based instruments for congestion mitigation can be generally classified into two groups: price-based and quantity-based. The former, widely known as congestion pricing, charges tolls to influence travelers' decisions; the latter directly regulates congestion. More specifically, credits or permits are first distributed by a government agency, and travelers are then required to pay a certain number of credits to access transportation facilities. The credits can be traded between travelers, and the price is determined by the market through free trading. In this study the identity between congestion pricing and tradable credit schemes in managing network mobility is formally established. A numerical example demonstrates how the identity falls apart when uncertainty is associated with transportation supply or demand. A sensitivity analysis of the coupled network and market equilibrium is then conducted to predict how credit price varies with respect to the perturbation associated with the supply or dema...},

abstract = {This paper explores integrated pricing of electricity and roads enabled by wireless power transfer technology. We envision that high-power, high-efficiency wireless power transfer technologies are mature in the near future, which electrify roads to be charging infrastructures. The prices of electricity at electrified roads will affect electric vehicles' route choices while the energy requirement of those vehicles will in return affect the operations of the power network and thus the prices of electricity. To determine the optimal prices of electricity and roads to maximize social welfare, first- and second-best pricing models are proposed under different authoritarian regimes. More specifically, assuming that a government agency manages both transportation and power systems, we develop the first-best pricing model, based on which a marginal-cost pricing scheme is derived. The second-best pricing model is proposed if the agency participates in a competitive wholesale power market while being able to impose tolls on electrified roads. The toll design is formulated as a mathematical program with complementarity constraints, and is solved by a manifold suboptimization algorithm. Numerical examples are presented to offer insights on integrated pricing of roads and electricity and demonstrate its effectiveness on improving social welfare. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Objective: Modeling road safety development is a complex task and needs to consider both the quantifiable impact of specific parameters as well as the underlying trends that cannot always be measured or observed. The objective of this research is to apply structural time series models for obtaining reliable medium- to long-term forecasts of road traffic fatality risk using data from 5 countries with different characteristics from all over Europe (Cyprus, Greece, Hungary, Norway, and Switzerland). Methods: Two structural time series models are considered: (1) the local linear trend model and the (2) latent risk time series model. Furthermore, a structured decision tree for the selection of the applicable model for each situation (developed within the Road Safety Data, Collection, Transfer and Analysis [DaCoTA] research project, cofunded by the European Commission) is outlined. First, the fatality and exposure data that are used for the development of the models are presented and explored. Then, the modeling process is presented, including the model selection process, introduction of intervention variables, and development of mobility scenarios. Results: The forecasts using the developed models appear to be realistic and within acceptable confidence intervals. The proposed methodology is proved to be very efficient for handling different cases of data availability and quality, providing an appropriate alternative from the family of structural time series models in each country. Conclusions: A concluding section providing perspectives and directions for future research is presented.},

abstract = {The Six Stages of Integration is a conceptual framework proposed herein that categorizes existing public transportation systems by their level of modal and agency integration. It offers a new paradigm that sees urban, regional, and high-speed rail as one coherent system. The One-Seat Ride and the Pulsed Hub Sys-tem are identified as Best Practices, taking full advantage of the findings of the mode choice literature. The framework offers a sound basis for making major public transport infrastructure decisions. Integration is an especially important system characteristic in the U.S., where widely dispersed land uses result in the " Last Mile " problem and sub-optimal ridership. Current planning for High-Speed Rail (HSR) in the U.S. ignores the poor access to decentralized metropolitan areas that downtown-to-downtown links provide. While integration is more critical to HSR's success in the United States than in Europe or Asia, U.S. institutional and regulatory barriers to integration are considerably higher. Systemic problems in the planning process combined with weak institutions result in best practices from abroad being ignored. As examples of Best Practices implementation, the paper proposes a series of enhancements to the California High-Speed Rail project, offering connectivity to all parts of the San Francisco metropoli-tan area and an armature for transit-oriented land uses. If transportation planning were to be properly co-ordinated with land use planning, these centers could become the seed for a less auto-dependent urban form in the Western United States.},

However, a small but important body of$\backslash$nliterature suggests that the informal pedestrian environments play an$\backslash$nimportant but often overlooked role in pedestrian accessibility. Social$\backslash$npaths are informal routes that emerge in grassy areas because of$\backslash$nfootfall. Social paths have formed at numerous suburban transit stops$\backslash$nand show deficiencies in the design of formal pedestrian networks.$\backslash$nBecause current travel behavior studies omit informal pedestrian$\backslash$nnetworks, their results may be inaccurate and result in misguided$\backslash$npolicy. This study identified social paths at 12 light rail stations in$\backslash$nDenver, Colorado, and Dallas, Texas. With two pedestrian accessibility$\backslash$nmetrics, the formal pedestrian environment was compared with a joint$\backslash$nformal informal pedestrian environment that includes social paths. This$\backslash$nstudy makes the argument that social paths are important components of$\backslash$nstation-area pedestrian accessibility and should be incorporated into$\backslash$nfuture travel behavior studies and pedestrian improvement projects.},

abstract = {The objective of this research was to estimate the effects that a specific pattern of illegal parking (double-parking) had on traffic conditions and the environment by using microscopic simulation. Through a sensitivity analysis, the effects of illegal double-parking on average speed, delay, and stopped time were estimated. Results showed that the existence of the phenomenon entailed a severe decrease in average speed and an important increase in delay and stopped time. Through a case study, the effects that a reduction or an elimination of the phenomenon would have in a real network were evaluated: all traffic indicators would be improved if double-parking were suppressed partially (e.g., through an intensification of enforcement) or, even better, completely. Results showed that limiting double-parking could result in an increase in speeds of about 10{\%} to 15{\%} and a decrease of about 15{\%} and 20{\%} in delay and stopped time, respectively. However, even greater improvements may be achieved if double-parking is eliminated: average speed can increase by up to 44{\%}, while delay and stopped time can decrease by up to 33{\%} and 47{\%}, respectively. On the basis of the results extracted from the case study, the effects for the whole district of the municipality of Athens, as well as for the entire Athens region, were assessed by using several indexes and performance measures. Savings from decreased lost time and reduced carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbon emissions were calculated. Directions for future research are also proposed.},

abstract = {Taxicabs are certainly the most popular type of on-demand transportation service in urban areas because taxi dispatching systems offer more and better services in terms of shorter wait times and travel convenience. However, a shortage of taxicabs has always been critical in many urban contexts especially during peak hours and taxis have great potential to maximize their efficiency by employing shared-ride concept. There are recent successes in real-time ridesharing projects that are expected to bring substantial benefits on energy consumption and operation efficiency, and thus it is essential to develop advanced vehicle dispatch algorithms to maximize occupancy and minimize travel times in real-time. This paper investigates how taxi services can be improved by proposing shared-taxi algorithms and what type of objective functions and constraints could be employed to prevent excessive passenger detours. Hybrid Simulated Annealing (HSA) is applied to dynamically assign passenger requests efficiently and a series of simulations are conducted with two different taxi operation strategies. The simulation results reveal that allowing ride-sharing for taxicabs increases productivity over the various demand levels and HSA can be considered as a suitable solution to maximize the system efficiency of real-time ride sharing.},

A new nested multinomial logit mode choice model is presented that is sensitive to travel costs, distance, transit station accessibility, service frequency, number of transfers, and parking costs. On the auto side, the model considers the modes drive-alone and shared-ride with 2–4 or more passengers. The transit side models regional bus, rail, and air as modal options. Special attention was given to transit station choice, as the nearest station may not provide the best connectivity for a given trip. Parameters used in this model were carefully compared with those published in the literature to ensure reasonability of model results. To explore the model sensitivities, scenarios with increased gasoline prices and improved bus service are presented.},

It contributes to the literature by proposing a method for redefining the safety performance of cars by taking into account the cars' hazardousness imposed on counterpart cars that are involved in the same crashes. A Bayesian hierarchical ordered logistic model was applied to relate the level of severity of drivers' injuries to the crash compatibility of car brands. In the models, we assume that driver injury depends on the difference between the striking car's aggressivity and the struck car's self-protectiveness in two-vehicle crashes with external factors controlled. A total of 17,178 two-vehicle-crash records involving 34,356 cars in Florida were used in the investigation. The results show that most of the premium cars such as Volvo, Cadillac, Infiniti, and Lexus possess excellent crash worthiness and relatively low crash aggressivity. The self-protection abilities of popular car brands such as Ford, Toyota, Honda, and Chevrolet vary considerably, but have similar, below average hazardousness performances. European cars have relatively good self-protection but are also more hazardous to the counterpart cars when crashes occur. Japanese cars show lower worthiness and aggressivity than American cars, while South Korean cars are associated with the lowest crash worthiness and mean crash aggressivity. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

However, few studies have attempted to compare the various land use mix metrics employed in travel behaviour research. In particular, an empirical model of travel demand that tests the wide range of measures used in past studies is, to our knowledge, absent in the literature. In this paper, we estimate a model for public transport trip frequency in London, in which we apply a number of distinct land use mix measures. We define land use mix both in terms of counts of establishments and land area to further investigate whether the unit of measurement of land uses affects model results. We find that, although not all measures applied are significant in explaining public transport demand, elasticities for measures that are significant in the model are comparable. Moreover, model results allow us to draw some general conclusions regarding the suitability of different metrics in the context of public transport demand.},

However, these benefits are not always distributed equally among different population groups. This research seeks to determine whether the benefits of Toronto's public transit system are equitably distributed, and how these benefits change from 1996 to 2006 after the implementation of several transit projects in the region. We develop a methodology using a social indicator based on census tract level socio-economic characteristics to measure the relationship between social disadvantage and accessibility to jobs and transit travel time in the Toronto region over time. Transit equity is examined at three levels: spatially, temporally, and by job type. We find the range in accessibility and transit travel time narrows over the 10. year period. In addition, the most socially disadvantaged census tracts have statistically significantly better accessibility and lower transit travel times relative to the rest of the region in both 1996 and in 2006. Our findings show that Toronto has a generally equitable transit system that benefits those in social need, who are likely to gain the most from transit. The methodology proposed presents a useful way to bring issues of social equity directly into the land use and transportation planning process. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

Without considering the emission paradox, the road network improvement that mitigates congestion may increase harmful vehicular emissions. In this paper, we analytically examine the occurrence of the emission paradox and the simultaneous occurrence of the Braess and emission paradoxes in the classical Braess' network. We ascertain that the occurrence of the emission paradox depends on the demand for travel, the parameters of link performance functions as well as link emission factors. We also find that the Braess and emission paradoxes do not always occur at the same time, and that the emission paradox is more likely to occur than the Braess paradox in some networks. More importantly, we discover that under some conditions of the parameters of link performance functions, the emission paradox does occur but Braess' paradox does not. This implies that road network design for mitigating congestion alone may not be able to avoid the increase in vehicular emissions. A more comprehensive view for road network design is necessary to avoid the occurrence of both the Braess and emission paradoxes.},

abstract = {2 The installation of the exclusive bus lane (XBL) on an urban expressway will likely cause 3 multiple turbulences of traffic flow in weaving sections near the exit/entrance, which exhibits 4 more complexities than the configuration without an exclusive bus lane. However, an 5 analytical procedure for estimating the capacity of weaving sections for exclusive bus lanes 6 on an urban expressway is no existent. This paper attempts to present a micro-simulation 7 approach for developing the analytical procedure for the capacity of weaving sections with an 8 exclusive bus lane. First, with a thorough analysis of the operation of weaving sections, three 9 factors that influence the capacity are identified. Then, a VISSIM based micro-simulation 10 framework is developed. The regression analysis of factors influencing the capacity is 11 conducted for the median XBL. Further, simulation experiments are designed. Finally, the 12 analytical model on the Capacity Reduction Factor (CRF) is established, which considers the 13 impact of both roadway allocation from XBL and more complex weaving behavior due to the 14 installation of XBL. A randomly chosen weaving section along the third ring road in Beijing 15 was used to validate the proposed model. Because there has not been an XBL installed on the 16 expressway ring road, a simulation model is developed for this chosen weaving section, in 17 which the median XBL is installed and the capacity is calculated by the proposed model. The 18 results are compared with those from the simulation model, demonstrating that capacities 19 obtained from the proposed model are close to the simulated ones with small relative errors. 20 Thus, the proposed model is shown to provide a reliable capacity estimation for weaving 21 sections of the median exclusive bus lanes on an urban expressway. 22 23},

ABSTRACT This study investigates the influence of traffic density on traffic flow by assuming a simple safe stopping distance between vehicles. To begin with, vehicles are uniformly spaced onto a highway and all vehicles and drivers' characteristics are identical. Spacing includes the length of the vehicle and a minimum allowable front and back gap. A simple basic-model generates flow values using a safe-stopping-distance (SSD m) formula. Vehicles obey a maximum speed limit. The resulting nearly triangular shaped traffic flow fundamental diagram, FD, is not surprising; however, it reveals the theoretical existence of a third regime between the congested and uncongested regimes. The mathematical description of this regime is formulated. The HighSim-model is a variation on the basic-model. Rather than uniformly spacing the vehicles on the highway, it generates a random location and checks the size of the space for adequacy before placing the vehicle at that location. HighSim also allows for a distribution of values for pertinent parameters. The influence on traffic flow due to the length of the vehicles and the drivers' reaction times are two of the parameters reported here. The research finds that the FD's third regime becomes more apparent with HighSim. Results indicate that each of the parameters adds a complexity to the basic-model and has its own unique effect on the FD. Finally, traffic flow generated by HighSim compares closely with real data plots.},

Trends are in favor of new and diversified itineraries, and opportunities are being sought for several unvisited ports to become new destinations for the cruise market. A methodology was proposed for estimating the number of cruise ship visits that could be attracted to a port aiming at becoming a destination of existing cruise line connections within the wider geographical area. The proposed framework estimated a cruise attractiveness index as a measure of a port's attractiveness for becoming a port of call. The framework then identified three scenarios under which the port could be integrated into the cruise line network. The result was a forecast of future cruise ship arrivals at the port. The methodology was applied to the Adriatic and Ionian Seas of the Mediterranean region, major cruise destinations. The cruise industry can use this decisionmaking tool to expand its destinations, and port authorities and other local agents can use it to attract tourism capital.},

A dynamic traffic assignment model was first built for the study area in Amherst, 50 New York, using the mesoscopic dynamic traffic assignment simulation package DynusT. 51 Various hazard scenarios were then simulated, including single hazard events as well as multiple 52 hazard scenarios. Both network-wide analyses and link-based analyses were conducted to 53 examine the impact of the hazards on travel time. In addition, different traveler information 54 mitigation strategies were evaluated and their ability to mitigate the impacts of the weather-55 induced hazards was assessed. The results indicated that weather-induced multiple hazards 56 affected network performance more significantly than single events. As far as traveler 57 information dissemination strategies are concerned, both variable message signs (VMS) and en-58 route guidance strategies were shown to be effective in mitigating the hazards' impact. 59 Specifically, en-route guidance performed better than VMS, from a system-wide perspective, and 60 resulted in more travel time savings. In comparison, for multiple hazards involving both 61 inclement weather and capacity-reducing incidents, VMS was more beneficial to the impacted 62 vehicles (i.e. vehicles that used the link where the accident occurred).

abstract = {Performance evaluation is fundamental to transport analysis and operations. This paper describes a quality evaluation framework based on level of service (LOS) developed for urban public transport in Switzerland. The framework focuses on four key indicators: on-time performance, headway adherence, speed, and passenger loads. The framework allows users to assess service quality at different levels by measuring the indicators at the single element level and aggregating scores over larger sets of elements. Because the number of indicators is relatively small compared with other frameworks, application of the method is easier, but the method also provides less detailed results. An earlier paper presented a conceptual approach for the framework. This paper extends that work by describing the approach in more detail and focusing on calibration of the LOS framework and application of the framework to a real example in Zurich, Switzerland. The research is part of a larger effort designed to develop a consistent multimodal LOS evaluation system for Switzerland. This system would include nonmotorized traffic, public transport, and road-based transport.},

abstract = {Automatic taxi dispatching has been widely used in many large cities worldwide, in which 1 customers can book taxis through phones or mobile devices. Two types of bookings are 2 commonly known: one is the Current Booking (CBK), the customer makes a booking call for 3 a taxi that can reach him/her as early as possible; another is the Advance Booking (ABK), the 4 customer makes a booking call and indicates the pickup time which is normally in half an 5 hour or later. In this paper, taking the taxi by making either CBK or ABK is defined as the 6 Booking Taxi Service (BTS) while taking the taxi by either waiting at taxi stand or hailing on 7 the street is defined as the Non-Booking Taxi Service (NBTS). In order to evaluate different 8 dispatching strategies, a Taxi-Customer Searching Problem (TCSP) is formulated in this 9 paper in which both BTS and NBTS are considered, and different dispatching strategies are 10 evaluated and compared. The microscopic traffic simulation is adopted as the approach for 11 modeling and analysis of the TCSP. A sensitivity analysis by varying the booking demand is 12 conducted based on the simulation, and the simulation results show that the Advance Booking 13 Chain Dispatching Strategy (ABC-DS) can give better operational performance in certain 14 demand levels which may have the potential to attract more customers to take the taxi by 15 booking in advance. Moreover, these results can also provide strategic implications for the 16 taxi operators. 17},

abstract = {Bluetooth sensors have a large detection zone compared to other static Vehicle Re-Identification Systems (VRIS). Although a larger detection zone increases the probability of detecting a Bluetooth-enabled device in a fast-moving vehicle, it increases the probability of multiple 5 detection events triggered by a single device. This could lead to location ambiguity and reduced 6 accuracy of travel time estimation. Therefore, the accuracy of travel time estimations by Bluetooth Technology (BT) depends upon how location ambiguity is handled by the estimation 8 method. The issue of multiple detection events in the context of travel time estimation by BT has 9 been considered by various researchers. However, treatment of this issue has remained simplistic 10 so far. Most previous studies simply used the first detection event (Enter-Enter) as the best 11 estimate. No systematic analysis for exploring the most accurate method of estimating travel time using multiple detection events has been conducted. In this study different aspects of BT detection zone, including size and its impact on the accuracy of travel time estimation, are 14 discussed. Moreover, four alternative methods are applied; namely, Enter-Enter, Leave-Leave, Peak-Peak and Combined to estimate travel time. These methods were developed based upon 16 various technical considerations related to multiple detection events. A controlled field experiment was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of alternative methods through comparison 18 with the ground truth travel-time data measured by GPS. Results show that the accuracy of Combined and Peak-Peak methods are higher than others and employment of first detection-event does not necessarily yield the best travel time estimation.},

abstract = {1 Sags are freeway sections along which gradient changes significantly from downwards to upwards. Sags 2 often become bottlenecks in freeways. With high traffic demand, congestion generally forms on the fast 3 lane(s) of the uphill section and then it spreads to the slow lane(s). Previous studies suggest that the ca-4 pacity of the fast lane(s) decreases on the uphill section due to changes in car-following behavior and an 5 increase in the frequency of lane changes. However, it is not clear which of those two factors is dominant. 6 The aim of this paper is to identify the primary factor triggering the formation of congestion at sags. To 7 this end, we analyze vehicle trajectories collected by means of video cameras on a sag in Japan. First, we 8 analyze the relation between average time headway and speed on the fast lanes at different locations. The 9 results indicate that, at similar speeds, drivers tend to keep longer headways on the uphill section than on the 10 downhill section. Therefore, lane capacity decreases on the uphill section. Second, we identify the causes 11 of formation and growth of traffic flow disturbances on the fast lanes. The results show that in almost all 12 cases the formation and growth of disturbances is triggered by car-following instabilities; disruptive lane 13 changes are a less frequent triggering factor. We conclude that the capacity of the fast lanes decreases at 14 sags primarily as a result of the changes in car-following behavior that occur on the uphill section. 15 16 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Tools such as freight demand generation models can improve decision-making through the analysis of the types and quantity of goods moved from one point to another. This paper concerns with the disaggregation of the Federal Highway Administration's Freight Analysis Framework database (version 3.0) on freight origin- destination data and the development of linear regression equations to describe the relationships between commodity-based productions/attractions to specific economic variables. Instead of generating a production/attraction equation for each commodity, the grouping of commodities can simplify model development and application. We consider three grouping methods and two model selection criteria (with and without intercepts). Commodity equations with high R2 values were more likely to generate outputs closer to the actual 2007 data in the calibration process. In addition to the discussion of model selection and commodity grouping, the freight generation models are further validated using county-level economic data in California and applied to predict 2015 commodity outputs. This study can be used as a guideline for city, county, metropolitan and state level planning agencies to develop their own customized freight demand generation model.},

To contribute to this already substantial accumulation of knowledge, this study will focus on the relationship between urban environment and the possession of different means of transportation, motivated by the consideration that the acquisition of transportation modes precedes their actual use in the context of daily activity-travel patterns. The analysis is based on the 2009 Dutch National Travel Survey, involving 65535 respondents, who reported their possession of different transportation modes. First, descriptive analyses are performed, followed by the estimation of best subset binary probit models and a multi-level mixture model. Congruent with previous findings about the use of transportation modes, both the results of the descriptive and the formal modelling analyses strongly indicate the existence of a weak interaction between urban density and the (non-) possession of in particular the car. However, results at the same time suggest the lack of any strong relationship between urban setting and transportation modes repositories. Implications of these research findings are discussed. 2},

Instead of a method that arbitrarily makes rushed decisions during the postdisruption phase, this paper describes a method for quantifying and optimizing resilience strategies based on concepts of integrated resource assignment, regardless of where the available resources are located in the logistics network studied or how much capacity can be rented from others. The study started with the use of a typical transportation network modeling approach and then incorporated nonlinear time-dependent cargo value functions into a multiobjective mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem. A set of optimal actions from resilience strategies, such as the selection of alternative routes, switching of shipping modes, rental of other carriers' capacities, reallocation of local trucks, and prioritization of the order of shipments because of limited capacities, was considered. Decisions should be based on overall trade-off considerations and, at the same time, joint maximization of the product of the total time-dependent cargo value and the corresponding throughput and minimization of the costs incurred with resilience enhancement strategies.},

abstract = {The concept of accessibility has been widely used in the transportation field, commonly to evaluate transportation planning options. The fundamental hypothesis of many studies related to accessibility could be “greater accessibility leads to more travel”. However, several studies have shown inconsistent results given this common hypothesis, finding instead that accessibility is independent of the trip/tour frequency. In addition, empirical aggregate urban modeling applications commonly produce either non-significant or negative (wrong sign) relationships between accessibility and the trip/tour frequency. For this reason, many practitioners rarely incorporate a measure of accessibility into trip/tour generation models out of consideration of the induced demand. In this context, this study examined the effect of accessibility in urban and suburban residences on the maintenance and discretionary activity tour frequencies of the elderly and the non-elderly using household travel survey data collected in the Seoul Metropolitan Area of Korea. The major finding of this study is that a higher density of land use and better quality of transportation service do not always lead to more tours due to the presence of intra-household interactions, trip chaining, and different travel needs by activity type. This finding implies that accessibility-related studies should not unquestioningly accept the common hypothesis when they apply accessibility measures to evaluate their transportation planning options or incorporate them into their trip/tour generation models.},

While previous studies have focused on the analysis of a single system, the increasing availability of station-level ridership data creates the opportunity to compare experiences across systems; particular attention is paid to data quality and consistency issues raised by a multi-city analysis. This project also expands on previous studies by including the network effects of the size and spatial distribution of the bike sharing station network, contributing to a more robust regression model for predicting station ridership. The regression analysis identifies a number of variables as having statistically significant correlations with station-level bike sharing ridership: population density; retail job density; bike, walk, and transit commuters; median income; education; presence of bikeways; non-white population (negative association); days of precipitation (negative association); and proximity to a network of other bike sharing stations. Proximity to a greater number of other bike sharing stations exhibits a strong positive correlation with ridership in a variety of model specifications and while controlling for the other demographic and built environment variables, suggesting that access to a comprehensive network of stations is a critical factor supporting ridership. Relative to previous models, this model will be more widely applicable to a diverse range of communities and help those interested in adopting bike sharing systems to predict potential levels of ridership and identify station locations that will serve the greatest number of riders.},

The model aims to provide methods to include human decision making in comprehensive simulation models that can describe the movement of vessels, including hydrodynamic effects; external effects due to wind, current, and waves; waterway geometry; and the interaction with other vessels. The paper uses a simple model to describe a vessel's dynamics and the impact of the control decisions on these dynamics, although generalization to more comprehensive maneuver models is straightforward. The mathematical modeling framework is presented on the basis of a set of behavioral assumptions. The model is described as a differential game in which the bridge team is assumed to react on the expected behavior of other vessels. Different behavioral strategies (risk prone, average risk, and neutral risk) lead to the different models described in the paper. The dynamics of the model are illustrated by simple examples. The results are plausible and clearly show the potential of the approach. The paper offers some direction for future development.},

A simulation model based on field data was developed, and the performance of the proposed strategy was compared with the conventional local detection based method under the microscopic simulation model. The results validated the efficiency of the proposed strategy in terms of minimizing the delay of emergency vehicles and reducing adverse impacts on normal traffic. {\textcopyright} 2013 Jiawen Wang et al.},

abstract = {At isolated signalized intersections, congestion problems are caused in part by an imbalance in supply and demand, which may be caused by the variability of turning-movement volumes. Although signal timing can be adjusted to handle varying demand, the effect of this adjustment alone is limited, especially when traffic demand fluctuates significantly. A two-step optimization model for dynamic lane assignment is presented: the model overcomes the shortcoming of static lane markings and fully utilizes the existing traffic facilities. The first step is to obtain the best lane assignment scheme by using an arm-group-based integer nonlinear program model. The second step is to identify a suitable implementation scheme by determining a binary-type threshold. The results of VISSIM simulation show that the proposed model can correctly choose the occasion to change the lane assigmnent by ignoring the small volume fluctuation and can improve traffic operations effectively when the traffic demand varies significantly.},

abstract = {As factors affecting airport passengers' and other travelers' transportation choices constantly change, the probability of choosing a particular mode also changes. For example, an increase in highway congestion would tend to shift auto travelers to public transport, or an increase in transit fare would make auto traveling more attractive. Although current modal share of airport ground access can be easily determined from passenger's revealed preference surveys, any forecast on mode choice is difficult because characteristics of individual travelers vary. This paper attempts to forecast airport ground access and egress trips at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) with the incremental logit or pivot point model. The model is developed by using modal share data from a revealed preference survey conducted by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates JFK. The resulting model predicts how changes in highway travel time due to traffic congestion, increases in transit fare to the airport, and changes in waiting and transfer time in the AirTrain system may affect the mode choice of air passengers and employees traveling to and from the airport.},

The question of how properly to optimize the full range of 8 typical highway maintenance activities based on measurement and prediction of performance is 9 not well covered, and practitioners are only now getting started in this area using software tools to 10 aid in planning non-pavement related maintenance. While much of the optimization work to date 11 focuses on predicting deterioration explicitly over time, this paper presents a method of 12 maintenance optimization, here called maintenance analysis, that assumes a steady state is 13 reached with regard to maintenance activities. The use of this maintenance analysis method 14 allows maintenance managers to use levels of service (LOS) and utility functions to define 15 maintenance indices. It thereby allows the manager to identify and plan the optimal mix of 16 maintenance activities to maximize performance with respect to maintenance performance indices 17 or minimize cost based on user defined budget constraints or LOS targets respectively. The paper 18 presents a simple numerical example to illustrate the method.},

abstract = {The future deployment of dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) technology requires that applications with their bases in DSRC be integrated with existing traffic management techniques so that vehicles not equipped with DSRC at the early stage of DSRC deployment can also reap the potential benefits of DSRC technology. A hybrid traffic information system was successfully developed; it combines DSRC technology and portable changeable message signs (PCMSs) for use in the work zone environment to improve traffic mobility and thereby driver safety. The developed system uses DSRC-based vehicle-to- infrastructure and vehicle-to-vehicle communication to acquire travel safety parameters, such as travel time (TT) and the starting location of congestion (SLoC), and to disseminate these parameters to DSRC-equipped vehicles and PCMSs, which are strategically placed along the roadside. Through the use of the DSRC-PCMS interface developed and demonstrated in this work, PCMSs can receive these travel safety parameters from nearby DSRC-equipped vehicles on the road through DSRC-based vehicle-to-vehicle communication, and display them for the drivers of vehicles that lack DSRC capability. Such a system can be useful during the early stage of DSRC deployment when DSRC market penetration is low. In addition, a rigorous analysis was conducted to investigate the minimum DSRC market penetration rate needed for successful functionality of the developed system with respect to both acquisition and dissemination of TT and SLoC. Through the use of a realistic traffic flow model, guidelines were developed to estimate a minimum DSRC penetration rate needed to deploy the developed system for a variety of traffic scenarios on a given work zone road.},

A microsimulation model was built to examine the feasibility of a PRT system linking the University of Calgary and surrounding major attractions. The environmental benefits of PRT operation were estimated in terms of reduction of air pollutants. Microsimulation was used to obtain accurate estimates of travel time and access/egress time for PRT and other transit modes, travel time savings for PRT patrons, and estimates of emissions. The investment costs were estimated using data from existing PRT projects (e.g., Heathrow Airport, Cardiff and Daventry, UK and Masdar City, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates). Ridership was estimated by means of a catchment area method adopted from public transit. A cost-benefit analysis model was developed to evaluate the economic viability of the system, considering the capital and operation costs associated with serving the dispersed sites. The sensitivity of the internal rate of return to changes in demand and investment cost was also investigated.},

Environmental constraint is a valid means to explicitly reflect various 4 environmental protection requirements imposed by the government. In this paper, we examine the 5 environmentally constrained traffic equilibrium problem (EC-TEP), which is a fundamental tool for 6 modeling and evaluating environmental protection requirements. Specifically, we provide an 7 equivalent reformulation for the EC-TEP. The proposed reformulation adapts the concept of gap 8 function to simultaneously reformulate the nonlinear complementarity conditions associated with the 9 generalized user equilibrium conditions, environmental constraints, and conservation constraints as an 10 equivalent unconstrained optimization problem. This gap function reformulation has two desirable 11 features: (1) it can handle a general environmental constraint structure (linear or nonlinear; link-based 12 or area-based) and a general link and route cost structure, enhancing the modeling adaptability and 13 flexibility; (2) it is smooth and unconstrained, permitting a number of existing efficient algorithms for 14 its solution. A gradient-based solution algorithm with a self-regulated averaging stepsize scheme is 15 customized to solve the reformulated unconstrained optimization problem. Numerical examples are 16 also provided to demonstrate the modeling flexibility of the proposed EC-TEP reformulation. 17 18 19 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Most emergency operations plans for large urbanized areas are insufficient in describing in specific and measurable terms how a major evacuation could be successfully conducted. This study systematically reviews the challenge of multimodal evacuation planning and presents a detailed literature review of published research and government documents to identify barriers to the enhancement of multimodal evacuation planning through the use of high-capacity vehicles to transport those who cannot evacuate on their own. Findings suggest that despite knowledge about multimodal transportation and the importance of integrating multimodalism into evacuation planning, most state and local governments do not apply the planning processes, training exercises, and resources necessary to evacuate households without automobiles. A research agenda for furthering multimodal evacuation planning is outlined, and recommendations are made for providing adequate multimodal transport during large-scale urban evacuations.},

abstract = {1 ABSTRACT 2 3 The quantity of cargo handled by United States ports has increased significantly in recent 4 years. Based on 2010 data, 2,333.4 Million short tons of cargo passed through the ports in 5 one year. To protect the U.S., all of this cargo must be inspected by U.S. Customs Border 6 Protection (CBP) officials in the most effective manner possible. Existing non-intrusive 7 inspection (NII) technologies have significant strengths, but they also have some 8 weaknesses, such as a low detection rate and a long inspection time. Fortunately, there 9 are newer and more advanced technologies that can be used to inspect cargo with higher 10 accuracy and less delay. 11 The goal of this research was to identify the most effective and efficient 12 combination of NII technologies for inspecting cargo arriving at U.S. ports. For this 13 purpose, a discrete-event simulation model was developed to simulate the cargo 14 inspection procedure. By simulating the operations of different combinations of NII 15 technologies, the effectiveness and efficiency of the various combinations were 16 evaluated. This information was used to provide recommendations about the most 17 effective and efficient combinations of NII technologies for detecting a wide range of 18 contraband. The results of this research are helpful in making decisions concerning the 19 appropriate choices of NII technologies for use in inspecting cargo that is entering U.S. 20 ports. 21 KEYWORDS: non-intrusive inspection (NII), advanced spectroscopic portals (ASP), 22 passport systems (PS), Arena model, discreet simulation 23 24 25 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {A parallel implementation of the Label Correcting Algorithm (LCA) for finding shortest paths on static networks is first presented. The parallel static LCA is then extended to include time-dependent link costs. For both the static and time-dependent cases, an efficient sparse matrix storage scheme that has been frequently employed by " sparse equations solver researchers " is adopted. It can be shown that the proposed sparse storage scheme is equivalent (in terms of computer memory requirement) to the forward or reverse star representation that is often used by transportation researchers. The proposed parallel (time-dependent) LCA simply assigns each processor to handle a number of source (or destination) nodes within a network. Both real (and randomly generated), static and time-dependent transportation networks (including a network with 100,000 nodes and 349,850 links) are extensively used to evaluate the numerical efficiency (in terms of accuracy, and wall-time) of the proposed parallel LCA, using inexpensive desktop/laptop Personal Computers (PCs), and under the C{\#}, C++, and MATLAB programming languages. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed parallel LCA is simple and very efficient. While implementing the proposed parallel LCA in the MATLAB / C++ environments offer the reasonable / very good efficiency of around 65{\%} / 87{\%}, its efficiency increased to be in the remarkable range of 95.11 {\%} (which is very close to the 100{\%} ideal/ perfectly linear efficiency) through 167.12{\%} (which is considered as " super-linear " performance) when implementing in the C{\#} environment.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright}2016 INFORMS.Sampling of alternatives is often required in discrete choice models to reduce the computational burden and to avoid describing a large number of attributes. This approach has been used in many areas, including modeling of route choice, vehicle ownership, trip destination, residential location, and activity scheduling. The need for sampling of alternatives is accentuated for random regret minimization (RRM) models because, unlike random utility models, the regret function for each alternative depends on all of the alternatives in the choice-set. In this paper we develop and test a method to achieve consistency, asymptotic normality, and relative efficiency of the estimators while sampling alternatives in a class of models that includes RRM. The proposed method can be seen as an extension of the approach used to address sampling of alternatives in multivariate extreme value models. We illustrate the methodology using Monte Carlo experimentation and a case study with real data. Experiments show that the proposed method is practical, performs better than a truncated model, and results in finite-sample estimates that provide a good approximation of those obtained with a model considering all of the alternatives.},

abstract = {A substantial number of studies have addressed the relationship between Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), daily activities (here, paid work) and travel. Most studies have been primary concerned with direct effects of ICT on activities and travel. The aim of this study is to gain more insight into the relationship between ICT and travel behavior by using fragmentation as an intermediate concept to investigate how ICT influence travel behavior. The concept of 5 fragmentation relates to how activities are reorganized temporally and spatially linked to ICT use. The causality of ICT, activity fragmentation and travel relationships remains to date unclear. We examine different causalities between ICT use, fragmentation and frequency of travel, based on a two-day communication-activity-travel data collected in The Netherlands. Using three different specifications, structural equation models (SEM) are applied to investigate the likely directions of 10 the relationships. The results show that the causal associations between fragmentation ICT and travel are far from simple. ICT mediate the participation in non-work activities and can both substitute and complement the number of trips depending on the traveler's attributes and type of ICT devices. Work fragmentation seems to affect the ability to travel for non-work purposes compared to work trips which are less elastic. ICT and fragmentation appear to have a reciprocal 15 relationship with mobile ICT use influencing fragmentation while sedentary communications are more determined by the degree of fragmentation.},

In 2 this paper we focus on gaining insight into the residential satisfaction of households near highways, 3 based on survey data collected among 1,230 respondents in the Netherlands. Using ordinal regression 4 analysis, we studied the effect of accessibility and negative externalities, alongside other contextual 5 factors, on residential satisfaction. Moreover, the objective was to gain first insights into the extent to 6 which plans for road infrastructure adjustments influence residential satisfaction. On average, 90 7 percent of respondents reported to be satisfied with living near the highway. Regarding explanatory 8 characteristics, negative externalities slightly outweigh accessibility aspects. Moreover, subjective 9 evaluations of hindrance appear to have stronger explanatory power than calculated air and noise 10 exposure. Regarding road adjustments, we found that respondents living near locations where a road 11 adjustment has been announced are marginally more satisfied compared to other locations. A reason 12 could be that respondents expect the current situation to improve once the adjustments are finished, 13 for instance by increased accessibility. The overall positive residential satisfaction evaluations near 14 highways may imply that, generally speaking, problems regarding living near highways may be 15 somewhat overstated. Moreover, the notion that the explanatory power of subjective hindrance 16 outperforms calculated exposure levels may give reason to be cautious when making transportation 17 planning decisions based solely on calculations.},

The work focused on tolling, traffic management and operations, and safety. The specific objectives of this project were to research, assess and document how ITS technologies can be used in areas of (1) toll collection and management in border regions, identifying technologies used, system components, and any special data sharing arrangements between the United States and its two bordering neighbors; (2) transportation operations and traffic management in US-Mexico border regions; (3) transportation safety policy and operations; (4) traffic management, traffic operation and traffic enforcement on tolled roads/tolled border-crossing roads; and (5) archiving toll and traffic management data. In the interest of brevity, this paper discusses results of the study pertaining to the state-of-the-practice on use of ITS on the US-Mexico border only.},

abstract = {National and regional household travel surveys have conventionally sampled landline telephone households through list-assisted random digit dialing. However, recent increases in "mobile phone-only" households result in either noncoverage or undercoverage of a growing segment of the population. This result could cause a substantial bias in the representativeness of travel behavior toward the target population. To cover mobile phone-only households, an address-based sampling method is of interest. This study explores whether the characteristics and travel behavior of mobile phone-only households differ from those of households with landline telephones. In addition, this study quantifies the extent of noncoverage errors in the surveys in respondents' travel behavior. Along with census data, the mobile phone-only sample (N = 2,988) was compared with the landline telephone sample (N = 7,774) drawn from the 2008 National Capital Region Household Travel Survey. Results show that the mobile phone-only sample consisted of relatively more single-person households; younger individuals; and Blacks, Asians, and Hispanics, who were generally identified as hard-to-reach groups. Statistical models were estimated to examine differences in travel behavior and suggested that the mobile phone-only households made more transit (41{\%}) and walking (29{\%}) trips. This study shows that the inclusion of the mobile phone-only households can reduce the noncoverage errors, especially for alternative modes. The implications for travel survey methods are discussed.},

The objective was to determine efficacious policies for sustainable transportation. The study database was developed based on few global urban transportation databases covering numerous cities for 4 decades in period of 1960 to2001: MCD, MCDST and ISADC. Based on the study database, 9 sustainable transportation indicators were developed, 3 indicators for presenting each key group of environmental, economic and social urban sustainability. A composite index was also suggested for combining the developed indicators. To develop the pertinent urban dynamic model, urban transportation causal loops were conceptualized and the dynamic relations between urban transportation variables were created. Trip generation, trip distance, modal share and vehicle occupancy were the key modules of the model. Economic, social and environmental indicators were the key outputs of the model. The dynamic model inputs were urban characteristics relevant to transportation. The dynamic model testing and evaluation were found satisfactory using time-series data. For the city of Isfahan, as a case study, by monitoring the sustainable transportation indicators using different development scenarios, efficacious transportation policies were determined and evaluated. The model deployment reflected that policy makers are expected to develop policies pertinent to public and non-motorized transportation infrastructure integration.},

abstract = {Recently, congestion pricing emerged as a cost-effective and efficient strategy to mitigate the congestion problem on freeways. This study develops a feedback-control based dynamic toll approach to formulate and solve for optimal tolls. The study compares the performance of the proposed methodology to that of the current strategy deployed on Interstate 95 express lanes. Two objectives are studied: one is to maximize the toll revenue while maintaining a minimum level of service on the managed lanes and the other is to maximize both revenue and throughput on the managed lanes while keeping a minimum level of service. The impact of drivers' value of time based on their income level is also examined. Three values ranging from 60{\%} to 120{\%} of the mean hourly income are used. The results show that for high demand, an increase in the probability of choosing managed lanes is obvious, with the highest increase observed for the case of 120{\%}. Besides, the effects of distributions of drivers' value of time among drivers are addressed. Two numerical examples are provided to explain how the proposed strategy works under three driver groups and forty-four driver groups, and an external module is developed to execute the strategy in real time during VISSIM runtime. When compared to the currently adopted toll pricing strategy on I-95, the proposed strategy with both objectives produce steadier toll rate profiles, while keeping the speeds at 45 mph or more. The objective of revenue maximization produces larger toll revenue and objective of both revenue and throughput maximization produces higher throughput on the managed lanes.},

abstract = {1 Traditional capacity calculation of signalized intersections does not take into account the effects 2 of downstream queue spillbacks that might occur at left-turn approaches. A left-turn approach 3 with two-lane section is defined as an approach that has one shared lane, for both left-turn and 4 through movements, that expands to two separate lanes before the stop line at the intersection. 5 As demand of the left-turn movement increases, and the downstream storage capacity is limited, 6 the probability that a blocking queue occurs at the left-turn lane increases. This is also correct 7 for the through movement as its queue might also spillbacks to the shared-lane section. In this 8 paper, we first model the effects of queue spillbacks at the left-turn approach (both spillbacks from 9 left-turn and through lanes) on the capacity of the intersection, and as a result we also calculate 10 the capacity drop. Afterwards, we extend our model to calculate the capacity of arterials with a 11 number of signalized intersections experiencing queue spillbacks at downstream approaches with 12 two-lane sections. Case study examples examine the effect of intersection characteristics (e.g. left-13 turn percentage, signal timing plan, and storage capacity) on the arterial capacity drop. Further 14 extensions include cases where some left-turns are prohibited. Finally, different left-turn control 15 policies related to prohibiting or permitting left-turns at intersections are proposed. The policies 16 are examined to increase the capacity of arterials for several numerical examples. The proposed 17 polices can help the traffic engineer practitioners not only to increase the capacity, but also to 18 allocate efficiently the gained space from prohibiting left-turn movements to other transportation 19 mode, e.g. bus lanes. 20 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Using smartcard data, this paper tried to characterize transit service quality with EJT under heterogeneous incidence behavior (arrival at boarding stations). A rigorous framework was established for analyzing EJT, in particular for reasoning about passenger' journey time standards as implied by varying incidence behavior. It was found that although the wrong assumption about passenger incidence behavior and journey time standards could result in a biased estimate of EJT for individual passenger journeys, the unified estimator of EJT proposed in this paper is unbiased at the aggregate level regardless of the passenger incidence behavior (random incidence, scheduled incidence, or a mixture of both). A case study based on the London Overground network (with a tap-in-and-tap-out smartcard system) was conducted to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method. EJT was estimated using the smartcard (Oyster) data at various levels of spatial and temporal aggregation in order to measure and evaluate the service quality. Aggregate EJT was found to vary substantially across the different London Overground lines and across time periods of weekday service. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

Subjective well-being has recently become a topic of interest within the transportation research community. This paper aims to understand the fundamental linkages between subjective well-being or happiness and transport mobility–travel behavior of the elderly population. The research here is based on data from the Supplement on Disability and Use of Time for 2009, which specifically targeted senior couples with an average age of 68. With the use of scores to a set of satisfaction questions about life, health, memory, finances, and marriage, latent class clusters are estimated. This estimate leads to four distinct clusters of respondents that depend on the degree of happiness in each of the satisfaction questions. With the membership of each cluster as a dependent variable, ordered probit and multinomial logistic regression models are estimated to study the relationship between clusters and individual characteristics, including sociodemographics, activity patterns, time use, and use of active modes (walking–bicycling). The results show that respondents who engage in activities out of the home, socialize, and enjoy better mobility also report higher levels of subjective well-being leading to a better quality of life. The model findings also show that illness and pain are related to lower well-being and that quality of life in older age is correlated to mobility.},

Eisele, Schrank, Bittner, and Larson 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 For nearly 30 years, the Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute (TTI) has developed methodologies 3 and appropriate performance measures for estimating congestion performance and 4 communicating them to technical and non-technical audiences. Historically, TTI's Urban 5 Mobility Report (UMR) has focused on passenger-car congestion (i.e., the average commuter). 6 However, roadway traffic congestion certainly impacts both commuters and goods movement. 7 With the documented growth of freight shipments and value, particularly in trucking, researchers 8 developed and applied a methodology to include urban area truck freight commodity value that is 9 impacted by congestion into the UMR. 10 The methodology uses data from Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Freight 11 Analysis Framework (FAF) and Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS). 12 Commodity values supplied by FAF are integrated with truck vehicle-miles of travel (VMT) 13 calculated from the HPMS roadway inventory. 14 Researchers estimated that {\$}7 trillion worth of commodities was trucked on America's 15 urban streets and highways during 2020. At the urban area level, the results of the truck value 16 measure appear intuitive as bigger cities consume more goods, which mean a higher value of 17 freight movement. 18 The addition of truck value to the UMR provides another dimension to inform policy-19 makers and decision-makers about the congestion problem. It also serves to inform trucking 20 stakeholders by estimating the amount of truck value that is impacted by congestion. 21 Researchers will continue to include the truck freight value performance measure in subsequent 22 releases of the UMR.},

abstract = {Commercial traffic constitutes a significant part of total traffic. While on long distances goods traffic prevails, particularly in metropolitan areas service related traffic (i.e. traffic resulting from services delivered to customers at home, offices, constructions sites etc.) takes the lead – and is continuously growing. This kind of traffic is passenger traffic in the first place, but for commercial reasons. Even though goods (e.g. tools) might be transported together with the person (agent, worker etc.), the major purpose of service related trips is the movement of the person. It is common practice to forecast transport demand for private passenger traffic and goods traffic. Dedicated models for service related traffic are still rare. This is not only due to the lacking recognition of the particularities of this special part of traffic among transport planners, it is also due to the complexity of analyzing and depicting service related traffic. One characteristic of service related traffic is that it consists of tours connecting sometimes more than one destination with the origin of the tour. Furthermore, many trips are trips with commercial vehicles, registered by a company or organization, but also private vehicle owners use their cars to a significant extent for commercial trips. Because surveys can only collect information on trip chains for a sample population, a method is needed to derive the total demand from this sample. Surveys on private and commercial vehicles used for service related trips are particularly useful for this purpose. This article introduces such a methodology to extrapolate traffic demand from trip chain data. It is not only applicable to service related traffic, but to all tour based traffic, if empirical tour patterns are available. A regular survey of the German Federal Motor Transport Authority together with detailed spatial and demographic data was used as input to the model. The city of Berlin served as a case study.},

abstract = {This paper presents a modeling framework developed for the City of Montreal, Canada, and is intended to quantify two indicators that can explain the spatial distribution of traffic-related air pollution at a metropolitan level. The indicators are estimated at the level of the traffic analysis zone (TAZ) and include: (1) the average level of emissions generated per individual, and (2) the level of emissions occurring in a zone as a proxy for air pollution exposure. A regional traffic assignment model is extended with capabilities for emission modeling at an individual trip level while taking into account vehicle (type, age) and trip attributes (road type, speed, volume). The authors observe that individuals who generate higher emissions from travel tend to reside in areas with lower exposure to traffic emissions while individuals associated with low levels of travel emissions (e.g. travel smaller distances, conduct less trips, use alternative modes) reside in areas with high levels of traffic pollution. A regression analysis of the two indicators against a set of land-use and socio-economic variables shows that generated emissions per individual are positively associated with car ownership and larger vehicles, while being negatively associated with ownership of newer vehicles, and location in dense and walkable neighborhoods with high levels of commercial land-use. Meanwhile, exposure to emissions is positively associated with dense and walkable neighborhoods and negatively associated with car ownership and larger vehicles. These findings indicate major inequities in the generation of and exposure to traffic-related air pollution.},

abstract = {This paper studied an integrated logistics network design problem that optimizes supplier locations and their assignments to terminal facilities, expedited shipment configurations and inventory management strategies in an uncertain environment. The authors first formulated elementary models for certain special case problems and discuss their model properties and solution methods. Built on these developments, they proposed a mathematical programming model that minimizes the sum of supplier set-up costs, expected shipment costs for both regular and expedited services, and expected inventory holding cost under stochastic demand rates and transportation lead times for a general network logistics system throughout the planning horizon. Due to the consideration of interdependent operational components including inventory management and shipment expedition, the proposed model is of high non-linearities and involve complex discrete structures. After studying problem element properties, they developed a customized solution approach based on the Lagrangian relaxation technique that can solve the model efficiently and accurately. This approach has been tested on a number of instances on three logistics networks of different scales, and their results uniformly showed that this approach can solve a realistic problem instance to its exact optimum or a near-optimum solution in a short time. They presented extensive experimental results to draw managerial insights into how problem settings and key parameter values affect the optimal design results, including cost component magnitudes, transportation configurations, inventory management strategies and network layouts. They noted that under the optimal design, utilizing expedited shipment services actually does not incur too much extra cost overall while guaranteeing service reliability. They also found under the integrated design, all planning and operational components complement each other in the optimal way, and thus it is important and necessary to consider all the planning and operational decisions all together in a holistic design framework.},

abstract = {Congestion is a major problem in large urbanised areas. Intelligent Transport Solutions aim to reduce this problem. Generally, traffic is monitored using sensors, this data is processed, a traffic state is estimated and a control measure is computed and implemented. The availability and quality of the data and the processing time of the algorithms are possible limiting factors in this pattern. This paper investigates what the data requirements for different traffic control measures are. In particular, we focus on the relationship between the spatial scale of the control measure and the time delay between the measurement and the control action, the latency. A set of 17 applications shows that the larger the spatial scale of the control measure, the larger the latency can be. This relationship can be used to determine the latency quality criteria for a certain application. On the other hand, it can be analysed which type of applications are possible when data with a specific quality can be collected. The latter analysis is carried out for a province in the Netherlands. This analysis furthermore shows the difference between the availability in terms of information and communication technology (ICT) and useful data for applications. In particular, if no vehicles pass, the ICT systems are available, but no realistic measurements are produced.},

While open access has only been partly implemented so 3 far, the concept of railway path pricing has been well established and is used throughout 4 Europe. Railway path prices should help pay for construction, maintenance and operation of 5 railway infrastructure and help guide transport decisions. Railway path pricing systems are 6 continuously under development and capacity aspects are becoming increasingly important. 7 In this research a capacity based cost allocation method was developed and evaluated using 8 case study data. This showed the impact of three common allocation schemes for 9 apportioning the costs of lost capacity. The paper presents results of this evaluation and 10 outlines whether and how such a capacity-based cost allocation method could be introduced 11 realistically in a path pricing system. 12 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. Frank, Weidmann and Nash 3 DEVELOPMENT OF A RAILWAY CAPACITY COST AND APPORTIONMENT 1 MODEL 2 1. INTRODUCTION 3 In the late 1980s European states came under great pressure to curb mounting losses and debts 4 of their mostly federal railways. In 1991 the EU directive 91/440 [1] was issued to liberalize 5 the railway market and to enable competition by introducing 'open access'. Today, more than 6 20 years later, regulation and pricing of network usage is a continuing challenge for both 7 European and national transport policy. There are also signs that railway infrastructure is a 8 natural monopoly, which cannot be exposed to the forces of the market the way it was 9 initially planned. Nevertheless open and non-discriminatory access must be guaranteed as 10 well as fair pricing and passing on of infrastructure costs to network users. 11 This paper examines the idea of charging trains for their impact on rail line capacity. 12 It is based on an on-going comprehensive study of railway path pricing being completed by 13 the ETH Zurich's Institute for Transport Planning and Systems (IVT). [2] The research has 14 considered many aspects of the problem including how innovation can be promoted using 15 path pricing [3], how noise reduction could be affected [4] and how harmonization of 16 different national path pricing systems would influence interoperability. [5] 17 A key aspect of path pricing is passing on infrastructure costs. In this regard 18 infrastructure can be seen as a resource consumed by different network users in the 19 production process of transport services. The goal of this research was to develop a model for 20 more accurately evaluating the cost of this resource, in terms of lost capacity (i.e. based on the 21 capacity a specific train consumes). 22 The next section summarizes the concept of path pricing and presents a background 23 for this research. Section 3 describes the capacity-based pricing model approach and baseline 24 data. Section 4 considers three different allocation principles for the model and evaluates each 25 of the approaches in a case study. Section 5 summarizes research conclusions and presents 26 recommendations for further research. 27},

MOVES can be used to estimate emission rates and emission inventories for a broad range of pollutants at multiple geographic scales.

The simplified model can be used to quantify fuel use and emission rates based on individual vehicle speed profiles. The accuracy of the simplified model is verified by comparison to emission rates estimated from MOVES. For new diesel transit buses, the errors between the simplified model versus MOVES are within 1.3{\%} for all cycles and pollutants considered. The rates predicted by the simplified model are sensitive to driving cycles. Emission rates vary by a factor of 3-5 in comparison to cycles along a wide range of average speeds.

abstract = {Motorway off-ramps are a significant source of traffic congestion and collisions. Heavy diverging traffic to off-ramps slows down the mainline traffic speed. When the off-ramp queue spillbacks onto the mainline, it leads to a major breakdown of the motorway capacity and a significant threat to the traffic safety. This paper proposes using Variable Speed Limits (VSL) for protection of the motorway off-ramp queue and thus to promote safety in congested diverging areas. To support timely activation of VSL in advance of queue spillover, a proactive control strategy is proposed based on a real-time off-ramp queue estimation and prediction. This process determines the estimated queue size in the near-term future, on which the decision to change speed limits is made. VSL can effectively slow down traffic as it is mandatory that drivers follow the changed speed limits. A collateral benefit of VSL is its potential effect on drivers making them more attentive to the surrounding traffic conditions, and prepared for a sudden braking of the leading car. This paper analyses and quantifies these impacts and potential benefits of VSL on traffic safety and efficiency using the microsimulation approach.},

The program accounts for the probabilities of inventory capacity violation, order quantity capacity, service levels, vehicle capacity restrictions, and route duration limits in the combined continuous inventory control and multidepot vehicle routing problem. Two tabu search heuristics differing in the way in which initial solutions were generated were applied to solve the problem. Computational tests on standard test networks revealed that the integration of the inventory management and routing decisions by solution of the combined inventory management and routing problem might yield cost savings of up to 14{\%} over the cost of the sequential approach in which both problems were solved separately. The best objective function value obtained by the tabu search heuristic was found to increase with an increase in customer demand variance but decrease with an increase in order quantity capacity and route duration limit. Variance of the customer demand was found to have a significant impact on the quality of the solution.},

Despite of the safety benefits offered by roundabouts, operational efficiency is required be analyzed when considering building roundabouts. As a prevailing simulation platform for modeling roundabouts, VISSIM have been widely applied in practice to facilitate analyzing the operational performance of roundabouts. Considering that an essential prerequisite to preparing a VISSIM roundabout model is to calibrate the model by adjusting VISSIM parameters, comprehensive calibration guidance is of great importance to practitioners. Previous calibration research has conducted qualitative analysis to study the impact of VISSIM parameters on roundabout capacity. However, parameter values based on field data and quantitative calibration guidelines are more helpful to facilitate fast and accurate modeling of roundabouts. This paper addresses these important needs. Speed trajectories of free-flow entering vehicles were collected in the field using a radar sensor. Location, length, speed distribution, and deceleration rate parameters for the VISSIM Reduced Speed Areas (RSA) were determined through the analysis of the radar data. The impact of VISSIM parameters on critical gap and follow-up headway was quantitatively analyzed through sensitivity analysis of minimum gap for PR, speed distribution and deceleration rate for RSA, and additive and multiplicative settings for the Wiedemann 74 model. Numerical guidelines for calibrating VISSIM roundabout models were ultimately developed, and validated via a case study.},

The authors also proposed to consider the local spatial interactions among people within the crowd, taking into account the presence of groups. Results of the flow rates level and walking speed of different scenarios studied in this work are presented (0°, 45°, 60° and 90° angle degrees). These showed that in high-density situations the walking speed of group members was lower compared to the singles within all scenarios studied. Likewise, the angle path with 60° degrees (compared to the scenario of corridor with 0° degrees) has a significant negative impact on both the flow rate and walking speed. These results could be of notable interest for all generic crowd models aiming at replicating crowd dynamics.},

These inaccuracies could cause navigation errors and prove costly to users. Therefore, it is important to devise a useful, efficient and cost effective method to make the datasets more accurate. One way to rectify the dataset quality is to use GPS data collected by GPS enabled navigation devices. When the map is not accurate it is reasonable to assume that the GPS data is more accurate than the map. Thus, GPS tracks can be used to realign the traveled street segments. One can view this as the inverse of the map matching problem. Instead of matching GPS positions to the map, we match the map to GPS tracks (or points). This paper outlines a comprehensive approach for realigning street segments to GPS data collected from moving vehicles. The process includes GPS data filtering, matching GPS points to existing road segments, shifting the road segments to the GPS points and forming new intersections and vertices. The end result of the process is a revised map of the road segments in their corrected positions. For each of these tasks new algorithms or enhanced existing algorithms were developed and employed. The proposed process was successfully implemented on real world data and the results of the realigned road segments are shown, analyzed and verified. The realigned network showed full agreement with high accuracy orthophoto of the test area.},

Little is known about the interrelationship between the choice of bicycle and the 3 pattern of trip chain. It is interesting to ask if a decision on bicycle usage is made before planning 4 a trip chain or is dependent on a decision of trip chain. This study aims to explore the 5 relationships between bicycle choice and trip-chaining pattern and capture the order between the 6 two decisions. Using the data extracted from the household survey in a medium-sized city in 7 China, co-evolutionary approach combined with binary logit and multinomial logit models is 8 estimated. The results show that there are more bicycle usages in subsistence trip chains than in 9 non-subsistence chains. In the majority of cases the trip chain is planned before the decision on 10 bicycle choice, especially when the trip is related to subsistence activities. 76.33{\%} of travelers 11 who use bicycle for travel determine the trip chain first and choose to use bicycle accordingly. 12 Only 25.69{\%} of travelers who make mode choice first select bicycle as the trip mode.

In Germany, like in many other countries, the 30th hour is defined as the design hour, which means that the 30th highest hourly traffic demand arising during one year is used as input value for freeway design. The paper analyzes the impact of different design hours on the level-of-service assessment for basic freeway segments. Based on traffic data from 50 freeway sections in Germany, the extent of congestion over a whole year is estimated by applying a macroscopic simulation model. With the model, all travel time losses due to congestion can be related to the hours in which the congestion was caused. It is found that on freeways with mainly recreational traffic, most time losses are caused within the first 30 hours, whereas on freeways with mainly commuter traffic, considerable time losses occur even beyond the 100th hour. Thus, the choice of a specific design hour in the range between the 30th and the 100th hour does not significantly affect the assessment results.},

We consider the binomial regression model with 7 spatial effect by using a conditional autoregressive model (CAR) and regard a passenger's 8 choice of metro rather than bus transport as a reference category. The results show that the 9 areas with a higher probability that passengers will choose a bus are clustered and that those 10 regions have fewer metro stations than bus stations.

abstract = {Congestion is a significant problem in America's 439 urban areas. According to the Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute's 2011 Urban Mobility Report (UMR), congestion caused urban Americans to travel 4.8 billion hours more and to purchase an extra 1.9 billion gallons of fuel for a congestion cost of {\$}101 billion. The UMR informs decision-making at the federal, state, and local levels. In 2011, the Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute released the inaugural Congested Corridors Report, which produces congestion statistics for the 328 most congested directional corridors in the United States. With the documented growth in freight shipments, particularly in the trucking sector, researchers were interested in developing methodologies and measures to help inform policy-makers and decision-makers characterize the impacts of congestion on urban areas. These methodologies and measures were developed and incorporated into the UMR and CCR. The methodologies use inventory data from the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) and historical speed data from INRIX{\textregistered} to estimate wasted time (delay in person-hours) and diesel fuel (gallons wasted), as well as the associated costs for trucks in urban congestion. The results and rankings appear intuitive, and this information provides an important dimension to these reports for characterizing congestion levels in urban areas and along congested corridors in America. This information will help to inform trucking stakeholders by quantifying the congestion impact to the trucking community. Researchers will continue to include truck delay, wasted fuel, and associated costs for urban area trucks in future releases of the UMR and CCR.},

abstract = {Providing Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) service on urban arterials can be a challenge for transportation agencies as they look to provide transit benefits within existing street infrastructure. Projects must provide high quality transit service while also supporting other important street needs such as pedestrian activity, traffic flow, on-street parking, and crash safety. Transportation agencies must make tradeoffs across different designs in ways that achieve a project's goals but do not mire the early planning for the project in unneeded costs and delays. This paper describes the New York City Department of Transportation and MTA New York City Transit's selection of the most appropriate on-street BRT running way design for Webster Avenue (US 1), a key north-south arterial in the central Bronx, based on a balanced, multi-modal set of criteria. Three BRT running way design alternatives - curbside, offset, and median bus lanes - were considered for Webster Avenue's 70-foot wide right-of-way during the screening process. The four primary screening categories were transit operations, traffic operations, on-street parking / delivery curb space supply, and pedestrian benefits. Each design alternative was evaluated at two sample intersections that represented typical corridor conditions and the results were then expanded to provide a complete corridor evaluation. The evaluation found that the offset bus lane alternative most effectively balanced the transit and traffic needs along the Webster Avenue corridor while maintaining on-street parking and supporting pedestrian activity, making it the preferred corridor design.},

abstract = {Travel conditions in a road network are described by a Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram, or MFD, only when traffic is homogenously distributed over all of the network's links. Otherwise, a network's measured traffic states fall beneath its MFD, and network flow therefore falls below the maximum. The present study finds that inhomogeneities in a network's link flows may emerge prior to the start of a rush, even before persistent queues have formed. This is potentially problematic because it is known that inhomogeneities of this kind can persist in a network for long durations. Hence, the inhomogeneities that we predict for under-saturated traffic conditions may persist as the network moves to the brink of congestion, and even well beyond. It follows that if drivers are left to their own devices, a network would never serve its rush-period demand at the maximum rate. The finding came by modeling in simple ways the steady-state conditions in under-saturated networks of signalized intersections. Analyses were performed for both, an idealized street grid characterized by uniform O-D patterns, and a more realistic demand pattern that resembles one in downtown San Francisco, California. Emergent patterns in inhomogeneous link flow are examined. Preliminary ideas to combat these undesirable patterns are discussed.},

Depending on the specific (concrete) attribute and (abstract) 5 benefit components that are activated in the individual's mental representation and how these 6 components are linked, individuals' evaluation of decision alternatives may differ. This is 7 especially prominent in the case of multi-dimensional activity-travel decision problems where 8 attributes and benefits may or may not be nested within dimensions. This study introduces a 9 formal model of the activation of attributes and benefits and their links in individuals' mental 10 representations. The approach allows for tests of differences in activation of mental 11 representation components across individuals and across choice situations. It can guide the 12 selection of (tailored) marketing communications (soft policies) or the development of new travel 13 demand management strategies that target individuals in a specific activity-travel context. The 14 model is illustrated using data collected in an interactive online survey of individuals' mental 15 representations of a complex shopping decision problem involving a choice of shopping location, 16 transportation mode, and shopping time.},

The scan team sought input on processes for implementing sustainable performance-based programs; effective communication methods for garnering upper management and legislative support; agency cultures that support performance-based programs; and techniques, tools, analyses, and reporting that support performance-based management. The team traveled to New Zealand, Australia, Sweden, the Netherlands, and England and gathered information from 14 agencies. The agencies selected for consultation had experience with managing their pavement networks under constrained budgets. Although the initial focus of the scan was on pavement management, the team found that some of the agencies conducted pavement management within an asset management framework. The findings are thus equally applicable to assets other than pavements. The key findings are (a) agency culture supports a long-term view toward managing pavements, (b) elected officials understand their responsibilities as stewards of public funds, (c) the road network is managed as a service provided to the traveling public, (d) agency priorities are known and agency personnel are held accountable for their actions, (e) the agencies recognize the importance of building internal capacity and capabilities, and (f) efficiency and value drive program delivery approaches. The scan team selected four implementation strategies for moving scan findings into practice: communicating scan findings, developing guidelines for asset management plans and long-term financial plans, encouraging use of recurring program assessments, and developing agency capabilities in the areas of engineering, contract administration, economics, and accounting.},

abstract = {The modeling of individuals' choice behavior in integrated multimodal transport networks requires the estimation of preference parameters related to the trade-off between uni-modal trips and multimodal combinations of private and public modes as well as relevant attributes of access, main and access stages of the trip. The stated choice method is a well-established method to estimate travel choice models empirically. However, including all relevant elements in a single experiment will not only result in choice tasks that are too complex for respondents but will also lead to choice-sets that include options that are not feasible for a given trip distance. To overcome this problem, this paper develops an approach that involves the use of a series of SP experiments to estimate a single comprehensive multimodal travel choice model. In total, four experiments are designed focusing on particular multimodal (including Park-and-Ride options) and public-transport choices for trips of varying distance. A representative national sample (N= 2746) of individuals from the Netherlands participated in the experiments through an online questionnaire. The data pooled across experiments are used to estimate the model in a scaled error-component-mixed multinomial logit framework. In this way, valuations of time, costs and service-quality attributes could be estimated on a relatively high level of detail concerning modes and trip stages. Comparisons with previous research indicate that the parameter estimates have reasonable values. The estimation results offer rich information on how travelers tradeoff between travel-time, travel-costs and service-quality attributes in travel choice in multimodal networks. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

Eisele, Schrank, Schuman, and Lomax 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 For nearly 30 years, the Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute (TTI) has developed methodologies 3 and appropriate performance measures for estimating congestion performance and 4 communicating them to technical and non-technical audiences. TTI's Urban Mobility Report 5 (UMR) (1) informs decision-making at the federal, state, and local levels. While very important 6 for guiding policy discussion and assisting resource allocations to infrastructure, the congestion 7 statistics in the UMR only tell part of the congestion story – the magnitude of the problem based 8 on areawide average congestion levels. 9 The reality is that congestion is not just an " average " problem. Reliability performance 10 measures capture an important aspect of the travel experience, and they illustrate the variability 11 in traffic congestion so that travelers can estimate the extra " buffer " time needed to ensure on-12 time arrival. 13 The transportation profession is moving toward the use and application of travel 14 reliability performance measures for project prioritization and decision-making. However, the 15 practice of using reliability measures for decision-making is in its relative infancy. This paper 16 describes the methodology and analytical procedures for computing and ranking corridors 17 throughout the United States with reliability measures. The results are documented in TTI's 18 inaugural 2011 Congested Corridors Report (CCR) (2). 19 In this paper, researchers describe the methodology and reliability measures presented in 20 the inaugural CCR. The results of the CCR identify the 328 most unreliable roadway corridors 21 as ranked by the buffer index. The performance measures and detailed data like those used in the 22 2011 CCR can guide investments and improve decisions and communication about the 23 congestion problem.},

Our study is set in Montreal, Canada where a traffic simulation model for a dense urban neighborhood is extended with capabilities for microscopic emission estimation. The results indicate that on average, isolated calming measures increase carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions by 1.5, 0.3, and 1.5 {\%}, respectively across the entire network. Area-wide schemes result in a percentage increase of 3.8 {\%} for CO2, 1.2 {\%} for CO, and 2.2 {\%} for NOx across the entire network. Along specific corridors where traffic calming measures were simulated, increases in emissions of up to 83 {\%} were observed. We also account for the effect of different measures on traffic volumes and observe moderate decreases in areas that have undergone traffic calming. In spite of traffic flow reductions, total emissions do increase. {\textcopyright} 2014 Springer Science+Business Media New York.},

abstract = {Providing personalized advice is an important objective in the development of advanced traveler information systems. In this paper, a Bayesian method to incorporate learning of users' personal travel preferences in a multimodal routing system is proposed. The system learns preference parameters incrementally based on travel choices a user makes. Existing Bayesian inference methods require too much computation time for the learning problem that we are dealing with here. Therefore, an approximation method is developed, which is based on sequential processing of preference parameters and systematic sampling of the parameter space. The data of repetitive travel choices of a representative sample of individuals are used to test the system. The results indicate that the system rapidly adapts to a user and learns his or her preferences effectively. The efficiency of the algorithm allows the system to handle realistically sized learning problems with short response times even when many users are to be simultaneously processed. It is therefore concluded that the approach is feasible; problems for future research are identified.},

abstract = {Ubiquitous data sources (e.g. GPS traces, mobile phone call records, smart card entries etc.) are increasingly being popular among researchers for deriving mobility patterns. These mobility patterns depend on socio-economic characteristics of the traveler as well as associated situational, contextual and environmental factors. These patterns therefore vary substantially with age, gender, employment status, income level and other demographic factors. Habitual markers (propensity to use the internet, social networking websites, mobile phones or media for example) also provide useful indications about these patterns. In this research, the day-to-day tour patterns of travelers have been extracted from GPS and WLAN records and a discrete choice modeling framework has been proposed to predict these patterns using demographic factors, habitual markers and other travel related attributes collected from travelers of Lausanne, Switzerland. The model parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood technique using the software BIOGEME. Estimated model parameters confirm that demographic factors (e.g. age, occupation and gender) combined with habitual markers (e.g. habit of listening to music on smart phone) and other contextual attributes (e.g. day of the week) can be used to predict the tour pattern of an individual on a certain day. The developed model demonstrates how information obtained from ubiquitous data sources can be successfully used as a tool for transportation planning and management.},

This is a remarkable trend which is 4 not yet well understood. This paper is an empirical analysis exploring how changes in youth living 5 arrangements, notably living with parents and postponement of child-rearing, influence youth driver 6 licensing. 7 A binary logistic regression model of travel survey data (1994 to 2009) for Melbourne, Australia is 8 used to explore these issues. The model established that living arrangements were not significant predictors 9 of licensing rates for 18 to 23 year olds, suggesting that in this age group living with parents or having 10 children was less important than access to a household car, gender, age and employment status. 11 However among 24-30 year olds living with parents was associated with reduced licensing. Some 12 30{\%} of this age group lived with parents and this has been trending upwards in Australian and international 13 data. In addition, 24-30 year olds living independently with children are more likely to have a driver 14 license. Between 14{\%} and 21{\%} of this age group lived independently with children and trend data shows 15 this is in decline. Together it is theorised that these changes in living arrangements may be influential in 16 overall licensing decline rates. 17 The paper considers implications of findings for policy and opportunities for future research. 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Abstract = 235 words (limit = 250 words) 26 27 28 29 30 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Managing the health and wellness of occupational drivers requires the recognition of burnout as an occupational hazard. However, the literature is dominated by studies of stress rather than burnout. The manner in which burnout may affect accident involvement is investigated in occupational drivers. The proposed causal structure is based on the stressor-strain model, in which burnout mediates between occupational stress and accident involvement. The study recruited 915 public transport drivers. The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory and an effort-reward imbalance scale were adopted to measure burnout and occupational stress, respectively. Results of the analysis indicated that burnout exerted a direct effect on accident involvement beyond the effect of occupational stress. Enhancing the perception of a safety culture does not significantly reduce the effect of occupational stress on burnout; however, it does significantly reduce the effect of burnout on accident involvement and thus indirectly alleviates the effect of occupational stress on accident involvement. In summary, as a comprehensive measure of the adverse effect of various types of chronic stressors, burnout provides a strong indicator for the identification of drivers who pose a risk to the organization and to road safety. Burnout management should be incorporated into overall stress management. Occupational drivers normally experience a low level of empowerment and long work hours; thus, a safety culture is crucial to this occupational category to reduce burnout and ensure workplace safety.},

abstract = {In practice, missing data in pavement condition databases have been one of the most prevalent problems in airport pavement management systems. Missing data present problems in pavement performance analysis and uncertainties in pavement management decision making. A number of data imputation approaches are available for handling missing data. This paper examines the limitations of the conventional data imputation methods and proposes a stochastic multiple imputation (MI) approach to overcome major limitations associated with conventional data imputation methods. A case study is presented to appraise the effectiveness of the proposed approach against three conventional data imputation methods, namely, substitution by mean, substitution by interpolation, and substitution by regression methods. The roughness and friction data of a 4-km-long runway pavement and the roughness data of a 4-km-long taxiway pavement were considered in the study. The effectiveness of auxiliary variables in data imputation models was also demonstrated. Results from the performance appraisal indicated that the proposed stochastic MI method yielded the smallest errors for the roughness as well as friction data. Furthermore, the substitution by mean method resulted in imputed values with the highest amount of deviations from the observed values, followed by the substitution by regression method, and the substitution by interpolation method. Therefore, it is concluded that the proposed stochastic MI method outperformed conventional methods in handling missing runway and taxiway pavement roughness and friction data and provides an effective approach to impute missing data required in an airport pavement management system.},

This paper applied the GARCH (1, 1) model to investigate the key determinants of newbuilding vessel price volatility and how freight rate affects it. The empirical results revealed that freight rate volatility is the most important and the positive determinant for newbuilding price volatility in capesize, panamax, handymax and handysize sectors. Shipyard capacity change, exchange rate volatility and shipbuilding cost volatility are key determinants for some vessel types, while secondhand vessel price volatility is not the key determinant for any vessel type.

Travel time is one of the most valuable traffic-related information and is necessary for effective traffic operation and management, although travel time measurement is still challenging. In this study, we propose a methodology whereby insufficient of vehicle signature information from loop detectors is complemented and enriched by the modeling of vehicle behaviors. Specifically, lane-changing models estimating the probabilities that a vehicle at an upstream station will change lanes, and that a gap observed upstream will be occupied by vehicles from other lanes are established. Then, the estimation of these probabilities and the similarity of vehicle signatures are simultaneously considered in the re-identification algorithm. As a result of the application to the expressway in Japan, where loop detectors are installed with at most 2 km distance, it is shown that by considering these probabilities, the accuracy of vehicle re-identification and measured travel time is significantly improved. In addition, although it is critical for the algorithm to provide appropriate parameters to the model, the parameters, which are calibrated to a specific traffic situation, robustly presented good-fit results even in other traffic situations.

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems are internationally recognized 3 as an effective means to deal with the urban traffic congestion problems. The authors 4 have undertaken a simulation study to pre-evaluate the effectiveness of a BRT plan on the 5 Jingtong Expressway to ensure the effectiveness of traffic organization scheme. The 6 simulation results showed that the dedicated bus lanes can greatly improve the carrying 7 capacity and buses' operating speed though there may have some negative impact on the 8 private vehicles. The comparison of the implementation effect was carried out between 9 the pre-evaluated data (simulated data) and the field data after the implementation of 10 dedicated bus lanes on Jingtong Expressway at May 24 th , 2011. There is a good 11 agreement between the pre-evaluated data and the field data. The results should 12 encourage cities to consider dedicated bus lanes as one of the strategies to implement 13 BRT service.},

abstract = {1 2 As fuel costs increase, transportation modes are looking to railways as a cheaper, more 3 efficient and environmentally friendly alternative. Because of railway transportation's immense 4 advantages over road and air transportation, its use is expected to increase two-fold or more over 5 the next 10 years in the US and Canada, and likely all of North America (NA). However, NA 6 railways are still dependent on diesel-electric locomotives, while other countries in Europe and 7 Asia have long ago switched to more efficient electric locomotive technology. Electric 8 locomotives have significant benefits over diesel-electrics, such as increased efficiency and 9 traction, a lower probability of failure, reduced noise and vibrations, potential for brake 10 regeneration, and an overall reduced carbon footprint. Despite these advantages, electric 11 locomotives can cost significantly more than diesel-electrics and require expensive 12 infrastructure, such as catenary lines and electric substations. 13 In 2008, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) implemented new regulations 14 on diesel-electric locomotives to reduce emission toxins such as particulate matter and NO X . 15 These new regulations create health benefits, but come at a cost to railway organizations for 16 more stringent manufacturing and remanufacturing requirements. This paper explored the 17 potential costs associated with electrifying the railway network in NA rather than focusing on 18 improving diesel-electrics. A Monte Carlo Simulation was conducted to compare these costs 19 with converting current railway lines to catenary, or partial catenary with on-board storage 20 systems. Factors such as research costs, noise reduction benefits, health benefits, fuel usage, and 21 productivity were taken into consideration to determine the most suitable alternative for the 22 future of NA's railway organizations, environment, and society. Results suggest that 23 implementing ultracapacitor or battery hybrid locomotive technology would create significant 24 positive net present worth savings between 2012 and 2040. NPW savings were estimated at {\$}496 25 Billion for passenger rail and {\$}14.3 Trillion for freight rail, due mainly to less overhead catenary 26 infrastructure and energy costs required, while still gaining the social benefits of reduced noise 27 and improved health. They would also be the quickest electrification technology options to 28 implement in terms of manageable construction and business disruption logistics, which were not 29 considered in this analysis and should be researched if and when business case development 30 occurs in pursuit of electrifying railways. Moreover, over 80{\%} of this significant NPW would 31 accrue to railway organizations, suggesting that business case development and investment 32 planning should proceed post haste to electrify, and to phase out diesel electric locomotives at 33 the end of their economic life. 34 Regardless of which route is taken, electrification would have immense benefits to both 35 railway organizations and society. Increased productivity, reduced energy requirements, 36 decreased noise and improved health would all significantly contribute to cost savings and an 37 improved quality of life for residents of North America. As such, there appears to be a strong 38 business case for research into development of hybrid electric locomotives that can operate on-39 and off-grid.},

The main purpose of this research is to aid public agencies with road fleet/equipment management within a given budget. In order to demonstrate the value of this approach, a case study using data collected for eighteen regional offices of the South Korean Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs were examined. These offices use a computerized system called KAMIS to monitor both the use and condition of road fleet/equipment systematically. This system records the operational history and monitors the current condition of road fleet/equipment management. Road agencies might also want to know whether they currently have sufficient fleet/equipment to handle their actual work, but KAMIS does not provide that type of information. Thus, a methodology uses operational records for road fleet/equipment management, and two evaluation indicators has been developed. Based on the results of our methodology, fleet/equipment can be classified into several groups: 1) frequently used and important, 2) relatively less used and important, 3) barely used and low importance, and 4) frequently used and low importance. These data can be used by regional offices to effectively lend and borrow fleet/equipment for both long and short term use. Such measures will help save money for the purchase and maintenance of road fleet/equipment. While our study focuses on a specific case study, the decision analysis method can easily be applied by similar decision makers in other countries.},

Agglomeration economies are represented with driving time measures of employment accessibility to establish a direct account for the link between transport and agglomeration economies. The paper investigates the presence of nonlinearities in the relationship between labor productivity and agglomeration economies, and examines the spatial decay pattern of the effects arising from this relationship. The findings indicate that there is considerable nonlinearity in the relation between productivity and transport induced agglomeration effects, implying that the estimation of country-level aggregate elasticities is likely to misrepresent the actual magnitude of any productivity gains from urban agglomeration. The results also suggest that the magnitude of the productivity-agglomeration effects decays very rapidly with time and is very strong within 20 minutes driving time. This suggests that knowledge spillover externalities are likely to be a very important Marshallian source of agglomeration economies.},

abstract = {Activity-travel behavior differs between women and men. Previous researches dealing with gender differences mainly pay attention to travel itself, but few focus on the interaction between time-use pattern and travel mode choice. Based on the activity-travel survey data of Suzhou, China, data processing, gender-based descriptive analysis and rigorous significance tests are conducted. Then, multi-group structural equation modeling is adopted to explore the reason of gender-based differences in mode choice through comparing the interactions among socio-demographics, time-use pattern and mode choice for men and women. The results indicate that gender-based differences do exist in mode choice. Women prefer bicycle while men prefer traveling by car in Suzhou, and men's mode choice is not so easily to be affected by other travel mode as women's. Besides, gender-based differences exist in the magnitude or the sign of the interrelations among socio-demographics, time-use pattern and mode choice. It is better to explain gender-based differences in mode choice by including time-use pattern endogenously than through socio-demographics alone. Furthermore, the study shows that by examining the direct, indirect and total effects in the model system simultaneously, the authors are able to better capture the differences in mode choice across gender, and further understand the reason of those differences. Finally, some dedicated suggestions are presented for planners and government to ensure a healthy transportation system.},

This type of parking can significantly affect traffic performance because of both the required roadway resources and the operational characteristics of parking maneuvers. To analyze the traffic performance of nonmotorized vehicles influenced by curbside parking, this study gives a quantitative analysis of the influence of curbside parking on travel time and space mean speed. The travel time and travel speed data of nonmotorizcd vehicles moving in road sections with curbside parking and barriers between motorized and nonmotorized vehicles were gathered by observers. A proportional hazard-based duration model is proposed to analyze the influential factors related to curbside parking, including the effective width of a bicycle lane; inbound and outbound parking maneuvers, double parking, and load-unload activities; and the time influence rate. Results show that curbside parking has a significant impact on the travel speed of nonmotorizcd vehicles. Results also indicate that the effective lane width shows a positive effect on travel speed, while inbound and outbound parking maneuvers and the time influence rate show a negative effect on travel speed. In addition, various factors can modify travel speed; the model can be used to estimate travel speed under assumed conditions. It is hoped that this study will help to improve the planning and management of curbside parking.},

Normally, this recommendation is based on empirical relationships without any scientific based studies that prove its efficiency and adequacy. In this context, this paper is focused on the analysis of the influence that the presence of different locations of pedestrian crossings has in the roundabout's performance levels, using microsimulation techniques. The roundabout's performance levels are evaluated according to two indicators: vehicle traffic flows and average travel times. The results proved interesting showing that the effect of the pedestrian crossing only takes a significant influence in terms of average travel time and for high vehicle traffic and pedestrian demand levels. In spite of this it appears that the effect is more pronounced in the exit section compared to the entry. For saturation levels below 70{\%} the effect of the presence of the pedestrian crossing was practically negligible, regardless of the section on analysis. Therefore the usual practice of locating the exit crosswalks at approximately 15 meters from the exit section seems to be an acceptable solution, providing a good balance between the smoothness of the traffic and the walking distance. However for traffic calming applications the location of pedestrian crossings near the circulatory ring delimitation seems perfectly acceptable.},

abstract = {It is sometimes argued that standard state-of-practice logit-based models cannot forecast the demand for substantially reduced travel times, for instance due to High Speed Rail (HSR). The present paper investigates this issue by reviewing the literature on travel time elasticities for long distance rail travel and comparing these with elasticities observed when new HSR lines have opened. This paper also validates the Swedish long distance model, Sampers, and its forecast demand for a proposed new HSR, using aggregate data revealing how the air-rail modal split varies with the difference in generalized travel time between rail and air. The Sampers long distance model is also compared to a newly developed model applying Box-Cox transformations. The paper contributes to the empirical literature on long distance travel, long distance elasticities and HSR passenger demand forecasts. Results indicate that the Sampers model is indeed able to predict the demand for HSR reasonably well. The new non-linear model has even better model fit and also slightly higher elasticities.},

Increasing demand for rail service has led to highly congested networks, which, in spite of improvements in railway scheduling and planning, increases the potential for operating disturbances and impacts. This paper describes research on the handling of railway operation disturbances. The research shows how, particularly for highly congested rail networks such as in urban areas, railway systems engineering can optimize processes to reduce disturbance impacts. The paper describes research on developing a forecasting process for improving the management of rail operation disturbances. This supports a return to the scheduled timetable. The proposed approach was developed by combining statistical correlations and improved procedural considerations. The approach can be used to help guide operating decisions and also be used in incident prevention planning.},

abstract = {Multiday and multiperiod panel surveys are state-of-the-art methods to assess changes in individual travel behavior. Though important for transport planners, these surveys are rather time-consuming for participants and therefore might lead to erroneous and biased mobility data. Variability in the data quality significantly affects statistical analyses of mobility figures as well as common microscopic travel demand models that use the mobility data as the basis for generating activity plans. Supplementary to the well-known approach of weighting biases in key figures of mobility, this paper focuses on methods for detecting data quality differences between individual travel diaries. These quality measures address aspects of motivation loss at different stages of the survey. A classification approach based on these new quality measures helps to detect erroneous data and possible dropouts. The results might help reduce dropouts in general by addressing the potential dropouts individually in advance and boosting their motivation. Quality measures are tested with recent data from the German Mobility Panel. For participants older than 60 years of age, the quality measures show good classification results in regard to accuracy, but for participants younger than 35 years of age the quality measures are not effectual in identifying dropouts. Such an individual approach combined with the partial inspection and correction of travel diaries may be useful for microscopic travel demand modeling based on external activity chains.},

Data were collected from 12 vehicles, each using 3 GPS receivers, for a total of 36 7 repeated GPS/BA runs on eight one-way routes in the Research Triangle Park, NC region. Road 8 grade was estimated by combining data from 9, 18, and 36 runs and applying linear regression to 9 non-overlapping and adjacent road segments of length ∆d. The accuracy of the estimated road 10 grade was evaluated based on comparison to estimates from aircraft-based LIDAR 11 measurements. The average grade is found to be accurate. The average precision is 0.39, 0.25, 12 and 0.16 percentage points, for sample sizes of 9, 18, and 36 runs, respectively, among 1,116 13 individual road segments.

ABSTRACT 1 2 Despite its booming growth, the BRT industry is still far from reaching maturity. As trial-and-error and 3 empirical techniques were largely used as insights for innovations in design, some BRT systems achieved great 4 successes in terms of performance and became world-class flagships. Other systems would be most properly 5 classified as busway systems requiring major improvements. In this paper we explore the performance of a 6 single lane per direction no-overtaking BRT corridor, in terms of capacity and operating speed, by conducting a 7 series of experiments that comprised the simulation of 324 alternative scenarios. In the simulation runs we 8 varied demand levels, boarding and alighting rates, spacing of stations, vehicle loadings, quantity of berths per 9 station, and traffic signal positioning in relation to stations. The qualitative analysis reveals that such a BRT 10 system can achieve a capacity around 15,000 pass/h/dir along its critical section with an operating speed of 20 11 km/h. Preliminary statistical analysis enabled the estimation of a regression model representing the impact of 12 BRT design elements on the operating speed. Our findings provide useful insights for designers of high-13 performance BRT corridors.},

The analysis examines individual level commute data along with information about multiple categories of commuter benefits, such as free car parking, public transport benefits and workplace facilities for cyclists and pedestrians. Data about full-time workers originate from the 2007/2008 Washington, DC Household Travel Survey. Results of a multinomial logistic regression model indicate that free car parking is significantly associated with lower levels of commuting by public transport as well as less walking and cycling to work. Public transport benefits are associated with higher levels of commuting by public transport as well as more walking and cycling to work. Benefits for walking and cycling are associated with higher levels of walking and cycling to work, as well as public transport use. Employees simultaneously offered free car parking, public transport benefits, and benefits for walking and cycling are significantly less likely to choose public transport. This suggests that free car parking may effectively counterweigh the incentives for walking, cycling, and public transport when benefit packages include free car parking alongside incentives for other modes. Results for control variables have expected signs and most are significant. Limitations of the study, relating to endogeneity, selection bias, and omitted variables, are discussed. These findings are consistent with other studies of commuting in the Washington, DC region as well as other studies of transportation mode choice and commuter benefits.},

abstract = {North America has shown an increasing desire to introduce or increase passenger rail service between many city-pairs. One approach to achieving this goal has been to run passenger trains on existing freight-railroad infrastructure. The simultaneous operation of passenger trains alongside freight trains is a significant challenge due to their different performance characteristics. Additionally, the track configuration can significantly influence the interaction effects between the trains. The maximum speed of the passenger train has a very small impact on the performance of the freight train in single track. However, in double track configurations, the speed of the passenger train will have a large impact on freight train delays. Single track can show an asymmetrical delay distribution centered on an average run time with very few trains arriving close to the minimum run time. A double track configuration can result in a delay distribution shaped similarly to an exponential distribution with many trains maintaining their minimum run times. In both single and double track, a higher passenger train maximum speed can lead to a greater range of possible travel times. These analyses can help further understand the interactions between passenger and freight trains for current and future shared corridor operations.},

abstract = {The standard formulation of static deterministic user equilibrium (UE) traffic assignment problem based on the criterion of Wardrop provides a unique solution in terms of link flows; however, route flows are not determined uniquely. Analyses based on an arbitrary choice among the infinite number of possible route flow solutions could cause inconsistencies or even controversies in applications. In 2010, a computationally efficient algorithm called Traffic Assignment by Paired Alternative Segments (TAPAS) was successfully implemented to identify UE route flows uniquely. So far, no effort has been made to assess adherence to the condition of proportionality in UE traffic assignment with uniquely determined route flows. In this paper, TAPAS was solved to obtain proportional UE route flows for the Chicago regional network in the closest proximity to uniqueness of the solution. Various assessments of adherence to proportionality are performed for a selected pair of alternative segments. The results show that route flows determined by TAPAS correspond closely to exact proportionality. Only minor differences occur between computed and exactly proportional UE route flows. Systematic characteristics of the plots for the two alternative segments show that TAPAS behaves properly according to the condition of proportionality. Insights from these empirical results may help transportation planning professionals to be aware of the magnitude of differences in UE route flows based on proportionality and to be able to differentiate uniqueness from non-uniqueness of route flows in UE traffic assignment. The results may also be useful to software developers in seeking improved adherence to proportionality of route flow solutions.},

With increasing transportation workforce needs, low numbers of students entering the 'pipeline', and limited hours within undergraduate civil engineering programs, it is important to ensure civil engineering students receive adequate preparation and exposure to career opportunities in the transportation engineering field. As such, investigations into the status of transportation engineering within civil engineering programs and specifically the introductory transportation engineering course are essential for understanding the implications to the profession. This paper presents a review of relevant literature and findings from a new survey of ABET-accredited civil engineering programs that yielded 84 responses. The survey indicates that 88 percent of responding programs teach an introductory course in transportation engineering, and 79 percent require it in their undergraduate programs. There is significant variation in the structure of the introductory course (number of credit hours, lab requirements, etc.), and common responses regarding improvements that could be made include adding labs, requiring a second course, and broadening course content. In addition, nearly 15 percent of instructors teaching the introductory course did not have a primary focus in transportation engineering. This finding should be investigated further, given that this course may be an undergraduate civil engineering student's only exposure to the profession.},

abstract = {1 Transfers allow customers to board connecting services without the requirement to pay an 2 additional fare to reach their destinations. As transfers are a core component of fare policy, it is 3 important to select an appropriate transfer time window, defined as the time between the first and 4 final boardings in a journey. The transfer time window selected is important to satisfy both 5 revenue and customer needs. 6 Different approaches can be utilized to derive transfer time windows. For example, a 7 transfer time window can be derived by finding the trip possible with the longest duration on the 8 transit network and setting a transfer time window that allows this trip to be taken on a single 9 fare. Alternatively, a transfer time window can be set so that the time spent on the system is 10 proportional to the fare paid. Unfortunately, both approaches yield relatively long transfer time 11 windows if extreme travel scenarios are considered. 12 To address this concern, an alternative approach was developed to consider more 13 common trips. This analysis found that a transfer time window can be better derived by 14 selecting commonly accessed destinations on the periphery of the transit network, calculating 15 transfer time windows for each origin-destination pair for a weekday during the midday, and 16 then taking the 85th percentile of the transfer time windows required for the origin-destination 17 pairs identified in the sample. The transfer time window should then be rounded to the next 15-18 or 30-minute increment for communication purposes. 19 Additional considerations when setting a transfer time window include revenue impacts, 20 forward compatibility, congestion and delays, and enforcement. Finally, transfer time windows 21 should be reviewed periodically as the transit system evolves to manage any revenue or customer 22 risks due to changes in network design and travel patterns.},

Because the percentage of trucks was different for different entry legs, the critical headways and follow-up times were estimated at each leg separately. Variations in gap acceptance behavior were also observed at one of the 11 roundabouts for 13 consecutive days to evaluate the statistical significance of differences in behavior between two entry legs. The results showed that a new adjusted critical headway improved the accuracy of capacity estimation and that the critical headways were significantly different between the two legs with different percentages of trucks in the entry flow.

abstract = {The health costs of on-road air pollution exposure are a component of traffic congestion costs that have not previously been assessed. This paper develops marginal private and external cost equations that include on-road pollution exposure in addition to time, fuel, and regional pollution emissions components. Applying a set of parameter values based on the literature shows that on-road pollution exposure can be a large portion (18{\%}) of marginal costs of traffic flow near roadway capacity. In an optimal pricing scenario, excluding the on-road exposure externality can lead to 6{\%} residual welfare loss because of sub-optimal tolls. Time is the dominant cost component, but on-road exposure costs increase dramatically in congestion; although regional pollution exposure generates greater health costs from travel in uncongested conditions, on-road exposure comes to dominate health costs from congested freeways. The estimated marginal cost and benefit curves indicate a theoretical preference for price controls to address the externality problem. The inclusion of on-road exposure costs reduces the size of projects required to cover implementation costs for intelligent transportation system improvements. When considering distinct vehicle classes, inclusion of on-road exposure costs disproportionately affects heavyduty vehicle marginal costs because of higher emissions rates and greater occupation of roadway capacity. Lastly, there are large uncertainties in the parameter estimates, especially for estimation of health outcomes from varying intensity and duration of exposure during travel. More research is needed on short-duration repeated exposure linkages to health outcomes and on-road exposure modeling tools.},

Modeling results show that, even as a small share of the traffic volume, HD vehicles can contribute a large share of total pollution emissions, especially for particulate matter and nitrogen oxides. HD vehicle emission rates are more sensitive to congestion than are light-duty (LD) vehicle emission rates, and thus greater emissions benefits may result from mitigating congestion for these vehicles.

abstract = {The relatively recent emergence of mobile Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) technologies as a potentially transformative tool for numerous transportation engineering applications coupled with a lack of existing standards has resulted in the need for an improved understanding of how this technology is currently being implemented, and what challenges are limiting its adoption. To that end, a questionnaire was administered to State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) to document and evaluate the state-of-the-practice regarding mobile LIDAR in transportation applications. Representatives from each of the 50 U.S. states and 6 additional transportation agencies completed the questionnaire, for a total of 74 responses. A second service provider questionnaire was completed by 14 companies experienced with mobile LIDAR services. Interestingly, it was determined that more DOTs have used mobile rather than airborne LIDAR services in the last year, even though mobile scanning is a less established technology. Additionally, the results showed that DOTs perceive cost to be one of the most significant challenges to the adoption of mobile LIDAR, indicating that more evidence and education are required regarding benefit to cost comparisons of the technology. The questionnaire also revealed current struggles as DOTs transition from two-to three-dimensional workflows and modeling. These questionnaires established a technology adoption baseline that can be used to measure future progress and provide the foundation for national guidelines currently under development. INTRODUCTION To evaluate the state-of-the-practice regarding mobile Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) technology in transportation applications, a questionnaire was administered to U.S. State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) to determine their current usage, interest, and knowledge of LIDAR technology. A key purpose of the questionnaire was to establish an overall technology adoption baseline for all of the State DOTs, which could then be used to develop upcoming, national, performance-based guidelines that address current challenges with mobile LIDAR for transportation applications. A related service provider questionnaire was distributed to experienced surveying and mobile LIDAR companies. The questionnaires also provide insight as to how mobile LIDAR is being considered for future transportation applications. Mobile LIDAR technology can be used for various transportation applications (Table 1). Mobile LIDAR systems can map a roadway while travelling at highway speeds, thereby providing enormous safety benefits by reducing the number of personnel required to obtain survey data across the road (1). The three-dimensional (3D) acquisition technique results in a 3D point cloud, which enables virtual exploration of a corridor (Figure 1). One of the primary strengths of mobile LIDAR is that once a dataset has been collected, it may be used many times for several purposes by multiple people in an agency. Furthermore, a variety of sensors can be mounted on a single platform, enabling more efficient field data collection. Yen and colleagues (2, 3) compared the features of several available mobile scanning systems revealing that this technology presents multiple safety, efficiency, accuracy, technical, and cost benefits to DOTs. However, mobile LIDAR presents some challenges, including a steep learning curve, large datasets, equipment costs, and software costs. TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This paper seeks to examine the relationship between traffic emissions and cyclists' exposure to air pollution across a variety of cycling facilities within the Island of Montreal. The concentration of ultra-fine particulate matter (UFP) was measured at each second along a set of cycling routes. Two pairs of research assistants cycled on 25 unique routes over a five-week period. Most routes were measured on four occasions: during the morning and evening peak periods on two separate days. Each route was approximately 25 ± 3 km for a total of approximately 600 km, covering nearly all 425 km of cycling facilities on the Island of Montreal as well as other common cycling corridors. A map of air quality across this network was generated for the morning and afternoon periods indicating significant differences in air pollution levels with the morning period associated with worse UFP levels. This is attributed to traffic flows which are higher during the morning as well as lower ambient temperatures. Preliminary results show a significant correlation between cyclists' exposure to UFP and measured traffic volumes (p{\textless}0.05), but even stronger correlation between exposure and the volume of trucks (p{\textless}0.01), indicating that vehicle composition may be an instrumental component of traffic data collection. Furthermore, results show that UFP exposure is inversely correlated to the distance between the bike path and the road (p{\textless}0.05) and that on average, bike lanes separated by a lane of parked cars have UFP levels 28.5{\%} lower than without (p{\textless}0.05).},

Abstract This paper presents a case study evaluation of days designated for walking and bicycling as part of a Safe Routes to School program. The case study examines two elementary schools in Moscow, Idaho that annually participate in two designated days for walking and bicycling, " International Walk to School Day " in the fall and " Fill the Racks! " in the spring. Students walking or bicycling to school were counted before and after the events. For comparison, counts were also observed at a nearby school not involved with the Safe Routes to School program. Count data was collected for eight days. Furthermore, 45 students and 17 parents were surveyed. Five parents and four community leaders were interviewed. The count data showed a significant increase in students using active travel modes on the day of the event and a few weeks later. The interviews and surveys showed, among other things, there is strong support for the special events and most parents felt the designated days increased their child's motivation to walk to school. Many parents said the spring event prompted their child to return to walking to school after the cold winter months. Policy implications and other lessons learned are provided.

abstract = {Human exposure to fine particulate matter of less than 2.5 microns in aerodynamic diameter is causally linked to cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. In-vehicle exposure may account for 10{\%} to 20{\%} of daily average exposure. However, exposure models are typically based on areawide air quality data that poorly predict in-vehicle concentration. A practical method is demonstrated for conducting field measurements to quantify the ratio of in-vehicle to outside vehicle concentration (I/O) for a wide range of conditions that affect intravehicle variability in exposure concentration. A field data collection study design is developed on the basis of sources of intravehicle variability in I/O that include ventilation air source, window status, fan setting, air-conditioning (AC) use, vehicle speed, road type, travel direction, and time of day. Three replicates of measurements were made for 16 combinations of these factors on 110 mi of roads comprising eight one-way routes between typical commuter origin-destination pairs. Two portable particle monitors recorded in-vehicle and near-vehicle ambient concentrations on 1-min averages for four particle size ranges. The comparability of the monitors was quantified. Near-vehicle concentrations varied with road type, time of day, and traffic conditions. The I/O ratio was approximately independent of near-vehicle concentration and varied with window status, source of ventilation air (fresh or recirculated), and for cases with recirculation and closed windows, fan setting, and AC use. The study design can be extended to additional vehicles to account for potential sources of intervehicle variability. Data collected here can be used to improve exposure simulation models.},

abstract = {The significant impact of heavy vehicles (HVs) on freeway operations has been identified since the first edition of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). The HCM 2010 used passenger car equivalent (PCE) values and percentages of trucks, buses, and recreational vehicles to account for the effect of HVs on roadway performance. Unfortunately, the PCE values in the HCM 2010 relied on a limited field database and simulation runs that were calibrated for steady-flow traffic conditions, although the effect of HVs on traffic flow could reasonably have been expected to have varied with traffic conditions. Few studies have been conducted with extensive field data to examine impacts on traffic characteristics by HV presence under congested and forced-flow conditions. This paper presents such an effort by using urban freeway data containing 1.2 million individual vehicle observations. The results indicated a significant difference in lagging–leading behavior between vehicle pairs related to HV presence. Passenger car and HV headways were found to increase with HV presence in the traffic stream. A similar pattern was found for the PCE factor. The PCE value under congested conditions and more than 9{\%} HV presence was found to be 1.76, which was higher than the 1.5 value recommended by the HCM 2010 for level freeway sections. The maximum throughput of the freeway was found to be affected by HV presence. The maximum throughput was observed at a truck presence of 3{\%}, after which it became progressively lower. The results of this paper can be used as input for future simulation runs of congested freeway flow conditions.},

abstract = {Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) has become popular as a means to provide reliable, non-automobile-based mobility and alleviate the impacts of rising traffic congestion in cities around the world. To date, however, there is little empirical evidence supporting BRT's potential to meet these objectives, particularly for lower income households. Furthermore, there is limited knowledge regarding the urban form conditions necessary to support BRT. This research improves the understanding of BRT's potential as an alternative to vehicle ownership for lower income households and provides new evidence on the role of urban form in supporting transit investment. The authors use a difference-in-differences research design to examine the change in vehicle ownership from before to after implementation of Bogot{\'{a}}, Colombia's TransMilenio BRT system. Results indicate access to TransMilenio's main trunk system is not significantly related to the odds of vehicle ownership for lower income households except in neighborhoods with urban forms that are supportive of walking, bicycling, and transit use. Furthermore, the authors find access to TransMilenio's feeder system is associated with an unexpected increase in the odds of vehicle ownership; however, that increase is overcome by supportive urban form. This research contributes to the debate about the transportation-urban form connection by demonstrating that urban form and transit access have a synergistic effect on vehicle ownership. Neglecting this synergy may lead to inconsistent or misleading results. The findings also suggest that the benefits of BRT investment may not accrue to lower income households unless that investment is coordinated with policies to promote supportive urban form.},

abstract = {The research presented in this paper analyzes the simplified behavioral vehicle longitudinal motion model, currently implemented in the INTEGRATION software, known as the Rakha- Pasumarthy-Adjerid (RPA) model. This model utilizes a steady-state formulation along with two constraints, namely: acceleration and collision avoidance. An analysis of the model using the naturalistic driving data identified a deficiency in the model formulation, in that it predicts more conservative driving behavior compared to naturalistic driving. Much of the error in simulated car-following behavior occurs when a car-following event is initiated. As a vehicle enters the lane in front of a subject vehicle, the spacing between the two vehicles is often much shorter than is desired; the observed behavior is that, rather than the following vehicle decelerating aggressively, the following vehicle coasts until the desired headway/spacing is achieved. Consequently, the model is enhanced to reflect this empirically observed behavior. Finally, a quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the original and proposed model formulations demonstrates that the proposed modification significantly decreases the modeling error and produces car-following behavior that is consistent with empirically observed driver behavior.},

abstract = {18 Across the country, one of the main reasons commuter trip lengths are increasing and traffic 19 conditions are deteriorating is because people do not, or cannot, live near their jobs. The 20 physical distance between the location of jobs and appropriate housing can be significant. Often 21 the only feasible alternative for workers who cannot work from home is to commute by car to 22 their job location. Congested freeways and rush hours provide ample evidence of this spatial 23 separation. When jobs and housing are located in close proximity, the need for long commutes 24 may be reduced. 25 This study uses journey-to-work data from metropolitan census tracts across the country 26 to investigate whether people's choices to live and work in an area is related to the presence of 27 jobs, or whether it is related to the type of job. Ordinary least squares regression is used to 28 generate a model that relates the number of people who live and work in the same area to the 29 earned wages of resident and nonresident workers, as well as the number of resident workers to 30 non-resident workers. The results indicate that more people who live and work in the same area 31 if there is a balance between earned wages of resident and non-resident workers. This model fits 32 the data better than previously published models that relate travel outcomes to jobs and housing. 33 Since metropolitan census tracts from across the nation were used, the models derived from this 34 research should be widely generalizable. This research provides planners the capability to 35 predict how employment and housing affect whether people can live and work in the same area.},

abstract = {A bicriterion shortest path problem with a general nonadditive cost seeks to optimize a combination of two path costs, one of which is evaluated by a nonlinear function. This paper first identifies a number of emerging transportation applications for which such a shortest path problem might be considered a core subproblem. We propose to first approximate the general nonlinear cost function with a piecewise linear counterpart, and then solve each linear subproblem sequentially. A specialized algorithm is developed to solve the subproblems, which makes use of the efficient path set (or the convex hull) to update upper and lower bounds of the original problem. Conditions under which the solution to a subproblem must belong to the efficient path set are specified. Accordingly, we show that the optimal path must be efficient if the nonlinear cost function is concave. If the optimal path to a subproblem is not efficient, partial path enumeration, implemented using a simple K-shortest path ranking procedure, is conducted to close the gap. The proposed algorithm includes strategies aiming to expedite path enumeration by using upper bounds derived from the efficient path set. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate correctness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

If many weaving points are concentrated in 5 a relatively stable zone, the zone is defined as pedestrian weaving zone (PWZ). Actually, the 6 weaving behavior has great impact on pedestrian's speed, walking comfort, facilities capacity 7 and passengers safety. 8 Firstly, the paper defines the concept of pedestrian weaving zone (PWZ) and PWZ 9 features, then by the means of controlled experiments, collects the data of weaving zone 10 features and pedestrian weaving behavior from different scenarios. Subsequently, the paper 11 analyzes PWZ feature through the geometric feature and the location attribute of weaving 12 zone and concludes that pedestrian flow volume and two pedestrian stream ratio closely 13 related to the area of PWZ rather than the width and length of pedestrian passageway, and 14 PWZ is closer to the exit than entrance of passageway. Three new indexes (pedestrian 15 weaving intensity, pedestrian trajectory offset ratio, distribution density factor of weaving 16 points) are introduced to analyze the operation of PWZ. Finally, based on three indexes, the 17 paper establishes pedestrian negative utility model to evaluate the operational status of PWZ. 18 Pedestrian-weaving-zone performs better with the decrease of utility. After analyzing the 19 impact of passageway geometric features (passageway width and length) and pedestrian 20 traffic features (pedestrian volume and two pedestrian stream ratio) on the performance of 21 PWZ, the paper puts forward with two improvements on the planning and management of 22 pedestrian passageway, through which the negative utility decreases 29.7{\%} and 34.5{\%} 23 respectively. 24 25 26},

Each volunteer participated in two, two-week data collection periods, one in the summer and one in the winter. Overall, 15.6{\%} of vehicle operating time was spent idling, consistent with the limited existing data on this topic. In addition, the paper describes a processing method used with in-vehicle GPS and OBD data that allows discretionary idling at the start and end of trips to be separated from the in-travel idling related to traffic or traffic control. Discretionary idling accounted for more than 6.5{\%} of vehicle operating time. Discretionary winter idling events are found to be longer than summer idling events and, among idling events over 60 seconds, trip-start idling to be longer than trip-end idling. Both of these results re-affirm prior findings suggesting that there are opportunities for behavioral changes to reduce idling. The method used to extract discretionary idling is promising for widespread use and large sample data collection efforts. This method will be critical for the many communities that lack robust idling data when considering the costs and benefits of idling behavior change initiatives.},

Part of this study was a survey in which the attitudes of the public towards this mode were investigated using both multi-response questions and a stated preference (SP) experiment. This paper reports on the results of the questionnaire. The first contribution of this paper is to give an insight on the reasons that motivate travellers to consider car-pooling as a possible alternative to driving alone with their own private car. Additionally, the questionnaire was the basis for factor and cluster analyses. Four different clusters of attitudes towards car pooling were identified among the population. This analysis is valuable to identify possible strategies to introduce carpooling at a larger scale in Switzerland. The results show that some parts of the population would be ready to embrace this mode of transport, in some cases even enthusiastically. This is true in particular for well educated, relatively affluent people. However, the responses suggest also that in order to exploit this potential, a system is necessary to address some of the typical issues related to carpooling. Safety is important but not the most important issue for potential participants. Practical aspects, like the guarantee of being able to go back home as a passenger if pools are arranged on a one-way basis, are those which worry respondents the most and, therefore, the most critical for carpooling success.},

abstract = {Traditionally, in many developing countries, the provision of infrastructure facilities as " public goods " has been the responsibility of the public sector and the government. In many countries infrastructure investment needs cannot be financed by the public sector alone. Given limited resources, Public Private Partnerships " PPPs " can be an effective tool to provide transportation infrastructure to development locations. To meet these needs, governments are attempting to encourage private sector involvement in investment in infrastructure projects as an additional option they cannot afford to ignore. Private sector can play a vital and efficient role in accelerating and providing the needed infrastructure system that is essential in facilitating the communication and movement of people and goods while minimizing impacts on sustainable development. " PPP " involvement in infrastructure development has gone through several evolutions. There are several attempts and a few good examples that describe such collaborations. However, they differ widely in their physical, political, financial, and technical conditions. There is limited discussion and documentation on the subject of PPP involvement as a collaboration model in transportation infrastructure and technology. To date, not a single set of rules to be followed exists that would make successful implementation likely. This paper argues that a systematic approach could be adopted by the public sector to engage the private sector in forming a collaborative " PPP " model. This paper's scope is to document, analyze and provide lessons learned and guiding principles and to present a roadmap of how to establish partnerships between public (government) and private sectors. It documents partnering challenges and opportunities and how to encourage cooperation and private sector initiatives. Also, to provide an overview of current policies, processes and challenges to private sector involvement in public transportation infrastructure and ITS technology projects. The paper focuses on how to provide strategies and a systematic approach that allows the government to engage the private sector in forming PPPs and to work together on transportation infrastructure projects (roads, bridges, and technology deployment).. The paper is evaluating several case studies of urban and rural regions in Northern California, Northwestern Nevada and Southern Oregon, applicable experiences, and suggested solutions that could be transferred and adopted successfully in other countries and settings. Finally, a roadmap will be presented for private sector engagement suggesting how to use the PPP collaboration model.

abstract = {On Freeway A20 near Rotterdam, Netherlands, a trial with dynamic speed limits began on June 28, 2011. On a 4.2-km stretch, the speed limit increased from 80 to 100 km/h as soon as congestion appeared to set in and at night. The aim of dynamic speed limits was to improve traffic operations and to avoid deterioration in the local air quality. This paper presents an assessment of this trial with respect to traffic operations, air quality, noise level, and traffic safety. Traffic operations on A20 appeared to have improved significantly as a consequence of the dynamic speed limits, which produced a reduction in the number of lost vehicle hours by 600 (20{\%}). This improvement was the result of a 4{\%} increase in the free-flow capacity at the main bottleneck on the freeway stretch. The dynamic speed limits caused a change in driver behavior: the median lane was better occupied when flow increased. Air quality deteriorated slightly. The effects varied along the stretch with a maximum increase in nitrogen oxides and particulate matter10 emissions of 3.7{\%} and 3.6{\%}, respectively. However, the effects on the average concentration of nitrogen oxides per year were limited. The noise level appeared to increase slightly with 0.2 dB. This increase occurred mainly during the two peak periods. The indicators for traffic safety showed sometimes a (possibly) positive and sometimes a (possibly) negative effect. However, it was not likely that dynamic speed limits had a significant negative effect on traffic safety.},

abstract = {As transportation agencies across the country are forced to deal with declining funding levels, much attention is paid to what will be lost as a result of these reductions. However, not enough attention is given to what agencies can do, not only to manage under tight budgets but also to make tremendous advancements in how projects are delivered in a way that is more accountable and transparent to citizens. Although this may be an era of smaller transportation programs, it can also be a time of greater leadership and public policy. With this in mind, the Kansas Department of Transportation embarked on a multiyear experiment to reinvent transportation planning and project selection processes. The effort would achieve greater support through stakeholder consultation, collaboration, and adoption of improved and expanded methods for ranking and selecting projects that appeal to broader issues of public concern (such as job creation) instead of merely engineering measures of need, such as pavement condition, congestion, and shoulder width. Eight years of experimentation in consultation, collaboration, and revision of processes provide many lessons for the transportation community; these lessons may be applicable in whole or part for other state or regional transportation agencies. The following methods and tools used by the Kansas Department of Transportation were critically examined: surveys, collaborative planning efforts, social media outreach, economic impact analysis, and expanded project selection processes. The results of this effort led to both the passage of a new 10-year transportation program by the Kansas Legislature in 2010 and its successful implementation in 2011.},

abstract = {When compared to mainlanders, islanders face many restrictions to their movements since they can't use road or rail transport to link with other islands or with the mainland. That's why the islands are always depending on public transport, mainly ferry services for their communication with the outer world. Ferry operators will focus on the high-profit areas that provide the necessary surplus of demand to cover their costs requirements and yield a reasonable profit in commercial standards. Consequently, the regions in which services can be provided at a loss or at a net cost which falls outside normal commercial standards will rarely be serviced at a sufficient level. To address this problem of transportation inequity and social exclusion we have identified the need for “Universal Service” (UnS) in island regions which are affected by the hurdles of remoteness and insularity. Universal service refers to an obligation imposed on one or more ferry operators to provide a minimum set of services to all users, regardless of their geographical location, at an affordable price. This paper provides a roadmap for the application of universal service in insular regions. It does so by considering the following elements: basic access, service availability, designation of undertakings, affordability of tariffs, quality of service and financing of universal service obligations.},

However, recent AASHTO, Caltrans, and NACTO documents require that 7 an adequate clearance interval shall be provided and that in determining this minimum interval 8 field investigation of bicyclists' speeds is recommended. Furthermore, even if detailed video 9 trajectories are available, the determination of a value for field speed and acceleration is not 10 trivial because values of speeds and accelerations are a function of time and individual bicyclist 11 performance. The purpose of this research is to develop and apply a general methodology to 12 estimate bicyclists' acceleration and speed for traffic signal timing applications. Utilizing 13 physical equations of motion, this research analytically derives expressions that can be used to 14 classify individual bicyclist's performance as function of the observed acceleration profile. The 15 analysis indicates that four basic acceleration profiles are possible and the profiles can be 16 obtained using a parsimonious field data collection method. The methodology is successfully 17 applied to two intersections in Portland, Oregon. A detailed statistical analysis of the results 18 shows that the results are intuitive and that the methodology successfully categorizes bicyclists' 19 performance variations due to topography or demographic characteristics. 20 21},

abstract = {This study investigates the contribution of the aging of the population and changes in travel behavior by age group to peak car use in France, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, Norway, and the United States. The terms "peak car use," "peak car travel," and "peak car hypothesis" have been coined for the recent trend reversal in car travel development observed in some industrialized countries. In the study countries, car travel was characterized by growth for a long time but started to show signs of stagnation or even decrease in the past decade. The authors analyze underlying travel trends since the mid-1990s and use a trend decomposition based on descriptive statistics from national travel surveys and Laspeyres indices. The results indicate that relevant developments have different weight in shaping peak car use in the study countries. In many places, the aging of the population has been an important contributor to peak car use. In Japan, aging was the most important factor limiting growth of car travel. In all study countries except the United States, where car ownership by seniors has not grown, increasing car ownership and car use by seniors have contributed to increasing car travel and thus have exerted a damping influence on peak car use. Another important development was new travel trends of young adults. In three countries, the contribution of young adults to peak car use is crucial: if young adults' car ownership and car mode share had not decreased, results would not have shown declining total car kilometers per capita in Germany and would have shown much stronger increases in Great Britain and Norway.},

The networks 7 foreseen for the two city studies were similar, with 4-place vehicles circulating with an average speed of 8 about 40 km/h. The results of the simulations were provided in terms of six indicators: total number of 9 daily passengers trips, system modal share, non-car modal share, total number of accidents, capital costs 10 of the system, ratio between benefits and costs due to the PRT introduction. As a summary of the results, 11 PRT is able to have a modal share between 20{\%} and 30{\%} if used as public transport in the city centre of 12 two small/medium cities as Uppsala and Trondheim. Ad hoc measures to push people to leave the use of 13 the private car would allow such modal share to increase.

Enns, Reimer, Regehr 2 ABSTRACT 43 44 This paper develops a methodology to characterize agriculture-related trucking on low-volume 45 rural roads. The methodology considers truck trips from the field to intermediate storage 46 facilities (field-to-storage) and from these facilities to market (storage-to-market). The 47 methodology, which applies the transportation systems analysis approach, leverages knowledge 48 from local producers through in-person interviews to qualitatively and quantitatively characterize 49 the transportation supply and demand that generate truck flows. Flow characterization in terms of 50 truck volumes and trip-making characteristics supports asset management decisions, such as 51 maintenance timing and upgrade investments, in addition to providing information for 52 forecasting future demand and infrastructure impacts. 53 The development and application of the methodology contributes in three ways. First, it 54 characterizes truck flows from field-to-storage, a segment of the agricultural supply chain 55 seldom considered by previous research. Second, it demonstrates the extent of information 56 concerning road usage and impacts available from producers. Third, results from the application 57 of the methodology to a study region in Manitoba reveal that: (a) smaller truck types are more 58 commonly used for the shorter field-to-storage trips than storage-to-market trips; (b) actual 59 distance traveled exceeds desired distance traveled, owing mainly to infrastructure-related 60 regulatory constraints; and (c) trip length distributions for the storage-to-market segment exhibit 61 a relationship between trip length and type of truck and commodity. The methodology is 62 transferrable across jurisdictions and scalable for different geographic and temporal scopes. The 63 specific results presented in this paper, however, may not be representative of conditions in other 64 regions. 65 66 67 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Accounting for seismic forces and thermal expansion in bridge design requires an accurate passive force-deflection relationship for the abutment wall. Current design codes make no allowance for skew effects on passive force; however, small-scale experimental results indicate a significant reduction in peak passive force as skew angle increases for plane-strain cases. To explore this issue further, large-scale field tests were conducted at skew angles of 0 and 30 with unconfined backfill geometry. The abutment back wall was 11 ft (3.35 m) wide by 5.5 ft (1.68 m) high, and backfill material consisted of dense, compacted sand. The peak passive force for the 30 skew was found to be 58{\%} of the peak passive force for the 0 skew case, which was in good agreement with the available laboratory and numerical results; however, the small difference between field and available laboratory results suggests that backfill geometry may have some effect on the reduction in peak passive force with respect to skew angle. Longitudinal displacement of the back wall at the peak passive force was found to be between 3{\%} and 5{\%} of the back wall height for field tests of both the 0 and 30 skew, which was consistent with previously reported values for large-scale passive force-deflection tests. For both tests, the failure geometry extended approximately 4 to 5 ft (1.22 to 1.52 m) beyond the edge of the pile cap and 16 to 18 ft (4.88 to 5.49 m) from the face of the cap when measured perpendicular to the back wall.},

This study introduces an agent-based approach to model yard cranes for the analysis of truck turn time. The objective of the model is to solve the yard crane scheduling problem (i.e. determining the sequence of drayage trucks to serve to minimize their waiting time). It is accomplished by modeling the yard crane operators as agents that employ reinforcement learning; specifically, q-learning. The proposed agent-based, q-learning model is developed using Netlogo. Experimental results show that the q-learning model is very effective in assisting the yard crane operator to select the next best move. Thus, the proposed q-learning model could potentially be integrated into existing yard management systems to automate the truck selection process and thereby improve yard operations. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

The paper aims to design an optimal hub location network to serve food consumption markets through efficient connections with production sites. These optimal locations can be compared with the current locations of hubs to determine whether changes could lead to greater efficiencies. The model is mathematically formulated as a mixed-integer programming problem. The model minimizes the total network costs, which include the transportation of goods and the construction of hubs. The mathematical program considers several constraints on travel distance, hub capital cost and capacity, road condition, and transportation cost. Several experiments are conducted to test the sensitivity of the model to changes in parameters such as the food's average travel distance, the maximum hub capacity, and the transportation cost. Then, a real-world application is made to the Northeast United States livestock industry. Finally, the results show the effect of the changes in model parameters on the optimal hub network design (i.e., the number of hubs and the selection of hub locations).},

abstract = {Stagnant budgets and growing rates of Internet access have increased the appeal of replacing traditional survey methods with electronic ones. Online surveys are particularly appealing in the public transit industry because of the expense and logistical difficulty of surveying customers onboard buses and trains. It is therefore critical to understand, quantify, and test the differences between onboard versus online transit survey data. Traditional hypothesis tests are designed to show that two sample statistics most likely come from different populations. However, failing to find a difference cannot be interpreted as evidence that there is no difference. Furthermore, a difference may be statistically significant but so small as to provide no practical insight (which often happens when working with large sample sizes). Statistical equivalence testing provides an analytical framework with which to evaluate whether two data sets are similar enough to be interchangeable (i.e., statistically equivalent). The paper describes statistical equivalence tests conducted on customer satisfaction data collected onboard transit systems and data collected electronically with e-mail lists from users of the same systems. Researchers compared proportions of satisfied customers across various economic and travel behavior characteristics between these data sets. Within the chosen threshold of .05 (statistics within 5 percentage points of one another), one of the two data sets evaluated shows strong evidence of equivalence between onboard and online survey methods, while the other data set shows strong evidence of nonequivalence. Findings support the idea that, at least in some cases, online surveys can substitute for onboard ones.},

Changing to a CVIS requires renovations; primarily, adding electronics and communication hardware to vehicles and infrastructure. Electronics manufacturing has been challenged for high natural resource impacts and energy demand. This creates concern over the potential environmental benefits or drawbacks of CVIS. Despite additional electronics, vehicle fuel savings yielded enough CO2 emissions and energy reductions to offset added electronics. Over a vehicle lifetime, drivers could reduce energy use by 106 gigajoules, and save a net 71 metric-tons of CO2 emissions.

abstract = {In recent years, transportation planning has been challenged by an increasing need for infrastructure development, a shortfall of revenue from the public sector, and political trending toward deregulation of transportation infrastructure development. These factors have led to increased interest in privatization of transportation infrastructure and the development of public-private partnerships, such as design-build-finance-operate. Although the overall goal of a transportation infrastructure project is to provide safe, reliable transportation systems for the public, parties involved in public-private partnerships take different roles and responsibilities. The public sector leads in laying out the terms and standards to regulate the obligations between the state departments of transportation and private entities. The private sector makes capital investment to provide agreed-upon services as well as to assume various investment risks, including project operational and financial risks. Toll-pricing strategies are a key component for the public sector in regulating the operation of a public-private partnership facility and for the private sector in controlling investment risks. This study investigated the applicability of deterministic dynamic optimization models for determining toll-pricing strategies that can help improve mobility, secure the public interest, and attract investment from the private sector. A case study of a design-build-finance-operate project was completed. Results showed that the proposed model provides a useful tool to assist both the public and private sectors in making more informed decisions, including study of optimal strategies to seek investment return and determination of the predefined contract regulations.},

abstract = {1 As international trade grows in Central America it is becoming more critical to move freight in 2 an effective and efficient manner. Recent trade agreements within Central American countries 3 and with the rest of the world will likely increase the freight moved in this region. Additionally, 4 the expansion of the Panama Canal will result in increases in freight due to larger vessels 5 travelling through the Canal. With potential future freight growth, Central American countries 6 must prepare their infrastructure and improve operations in order to handle this freight so that 7 they maintain competitiveness. The road network is essential in moving freight to international 8 border crossings and ports in Costa Rica making the reliability of the infrastructure and key 9 connecting links a primary concern for freight transportation. Port and border infrastructure and 10 operations are also essential for the throughput of freight at the international level. Although 11 embarking in international free trade agreements has the potential to increase freight, without the 12 corresponding improvements to the freight transportation system the overall positive impact may 13 be small. This paper investigates issues and options associated with improved freight movement 14 to, from and through Costa Rica. The issues and options are addressed in the context of physical, 15 operational, and regulatory constrains to freight mobility. The findings from this work raise 16 issues that should be considered in the design, development and implementation of a modern and 17 efficient freight transportation infrastructure that can increase the economic competitiveness of 18 this country relative to others in the region.},

In 2 response to that problem, information on transportation generated CO 2 information on 3 transportation is being provided to the public to aid with informed decision-making. 4 Choice experiments have found that CO 2 information given as a mass could influence 5 choice. However, other research suggests that CO 2 information presented as mass is not 6 fully understood and that how the information is presented, the format, affects 7 interpretation. If a format can affect understanding and interpretation, might it then affect 8 intention (and choice) to perform sustainable travel? It can be argued that without 9 context, it would be difficult to interpret CO 2 information presented as mass with respect 10 to sustainable levels. Information context provided through formats can highlight some 11 aspects of the information to influence intention and choice. It could affect decisions in 12 an analytical or emotional manner. If a format uses context that performs better in an 13 analytical task, does it follow that it would have greater impact on influencing intention? 14 Or might a format that includes emotional context result in stronger intention? This 15 research examined how people's behavioral intention responses for car use varied by 16 three different contextualized formats (carbon budget, tree-equivalent, and earth-17 equivalent) with varying analytical and emotional contexts in comparison to responses 18 based purely on CO 2 information presented as a mass without direct context.},

ABSTRACT 41 Intersection performance is often impacted and even limited by the need to serve left turn movements. 42 Left turns may be served in a number of ways, varying from permitted left turns to flashing yellow left 43 turn arrow to protected left turns. Each method may be employed in a number of different strategies. 44 45 To give practitioners and researchers more insight into left turn operations, this research implements a 46 number of different left turn strategies under varying volume, volume differential and turning 47 conditions while measuring the delay and queue lengths associated with each left turn strategy. In total, 48 8 left turn phasing strategies are evaluated, permitted only, leading protected-permitted, leading and 49 lagging protected-permitted, leading protected-Flashing Yellow Arrow (FYA), permitted, dual lagging 50 protected – FYA permitted, leading protected only, leading and lagging protected only, conditional 51 phase reservice, fixed phase reservice. The 8 strategies are evaluated under 63 test scenarios with 7 52 volume levels, 3 turning rates and 3 opposing volume differentials. 53 54 The following findings are discussed in this paper. First, at the lowest volumes, permitted only phasing 55 offers the best performance. Second, protective-permitted phasing, including leading left turn with 56 green ball, Leading left turn with FYA and FYA followed by lagging lefts, performs better as volume 57 differentials increase as well as when turning rates increase. Phase reservice on left turn phases has a 58 definite impact on queue length and delay experienced by the left turn phase, though it is also likely to 59 be accompanied by a decrease in performance elsewhere in the intersection. 60 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Systematic lane changes inside a weaving area could lead to accidents and disrupt the entire traffic flow. Recently, a simple macroscopic lane-changing model that determines the number of lane changes from on-ramp flows and the number of lanes was proposed to describe traffic dynamics inside the lane-changing area at a merging section. However, this macroscopic lane-changing model had not been validated with vehicle trajectory data. This study attempted to fill that validation gap. First, lane changes were categorized into two types: left-lane changes and right. lane changes. Then the following two hypotheses derived from the macroscopic lane-changing model were validated: (a) the number of left-lane changes within two adjacent lanes linearly increases from the leftmost lane to the shoulder lane and (b) the number of left-lane changes linearly increases with the flow rate of on-ramp vehicles inside the lane-changing area. Traffic balance among lanes was analyzed, and the two proposed hypotheses were validated for different periods and road geometries by using NGSIM vehicle trajectory data. The validation results confirm that the two linear relationships in the macroscopic lane-changing model exist.},

abstract = {Recently there has been much interest in understanding macroscopic fundamental diagrams of stationary road networks. However, there lacks a systematic method to define and solve stationary states in a road network with complex junctions. In this study we propose a kinematic wave approach to defining, analyzing, and simulating static and dynamic traffic characteristics in a network of two ring roads connected by a 2 × 2 junction, which can be either an uninterrupted interchange or a signalized intersection. This study is enabled by recently developed macroscopic junction models of general junctions. With a junction model based on fair merging and first-in-first-out diverging rules, we first define and solve stationary states and then derive the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) of a stationary uninterrupted network. We conclude that the flow-density relationship of the uninterrupted double-ring network is not unique for high average network densities (i.e., when one ring becomes congested) and unveil the existence of infinitely many stationary states that can arise with a zero-speed shockwave. From simulation results with a corresponding Cell Transmission Model, we verify that all stationary states in the MFD are stable and can be reached, but show that randomness in the retaining ratio of each ring drives the network to more symmetric traffic patterns and higher flow-rates. Furthermore we model a signalized intersection as two alternate diverge junctions and demonstrate that the signalized double-ring network can reach asymptotically periodic traffic patterns, which are therefore defined as "stationary" states in signalized networks. With simulations we show that the flow-density relation is well defined in such "stationary" states, and asymptotic traffic patterns can be impacted by signal cycle lengths and retaining ratios. But compared with uninterrupted interchanges, signalized intersections lead to more asymmetric traffic patterns, lower flow-rates, and even gridlocks when the average density is higher than half of the jam density. The results are consistent between this study and existing studies, but the network kinematic wave model, with appropriate junction models, is mathematically tractable and physically meaningful. It has offered a more complete picture regarding the number and type of stationary states, their stability, and MFD in freeway and signalized networks. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The widely suggested vehicle-miles-traveled (VMT) fee is an alternative pricing option to the current state-of-practice, the fuel tax per gallon, that has drawn great attention by researchers and policymakers, particularly regarding its equity performance among various social groups. Using socioeconomic-, geographic-, and vehicle-specific attributes from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey, the authors identified which social subgroups would mostly be affected under each pricing option, via estimation of three-stage least squares (3SLS) models at the nationa level. The results showed that particular social subgroups, such as households (HHs) located i states with lower fuel taxation, operate vehicles of lower fuel efficiency at the HH level and thus shoulder a larger portion of the fuel tax. On the other hand, HHs such as those that own vehicles of higher fuel efficiency, or have a higher average income, generate more trips annually, and as such would have higher VMT at the HH level. The authors also examined whether the estimated national model may apply to a smaller level of analysis, for the state of Iowa. The results suggested that, despite the similarities, the development of distinct local models was statistically supported.},

We first investigate the walking distance to and from a transit stop using on-board survey data. Two methods in Geographical Information Systems (GIS), the Combination of Thiessen Polygon and Buffer (CTPB) and the Network Distance based Service Area (NDSA), are compared as alternative strategies for generating mutually exclusive service areas (MESAs). To examine the effectiveness of these two methods, all MESAs are validated using a spider diagram generated from an on-board survey. Measures of urban form are also statistically tested for comparison of the two different methods. A case study of a single route, serving the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, is performed using data from various sources, such as Google's General Transit Feed Specifications (GTFS), on-board survey, parcel-level land uses, and street network. The validation with on-board survey data demonstrates the strengths of each method. The results also show that the NDSA, a popular GIS method for service area analysis, does not yield a more meaningful strategy for generating mutually exclusive transit catchment areas, especially when the spacing between stops is very small.},

Redundancy is characterized by two main dimensions: route 6 diversity and network spare capacity. The route diversity dimension is to evaluate the existence of multiple efficient 7 routes available for users or the degree of connections between a specific origin-destination (O-D) pair. The network 8 spare capacity dimension is used to quantify the network-wide spare capacity with an explicit consideration of 9 congestion effect. These two dimensions can complement each other by providing a two-dimensional 10 characterization of freight transportation network redundancy.

Given that the number of roundabouts in the United States has increased significantly, this research effort investigated the potential benefits of the use of CACC systems and vehicle-to-infrastructure connectivity to optimize the trajectories of vehicles approaching a single-lane roundabout. The optimization ensures that vehicles can enter the roundabout when gaps in the circulating roadway are available. The proposed idea is generally similar to the concept of metering single-lane entrance ramps. The system is simulated on a single-lane roundabout for different traffic demands and CACC market penetration levels. The study demonstrates that CACC systems can produce savings in total delay and fuel consumption levels of up to 80{\%} and 40{\%}, respectively, relative to the levels for traditional roundabout control. Further benefits are also achievable if one considers the potential to reduce the time headway between CACC-equipped vehicles and thus increase lane capacity.},

Data from network-level deflection testing on Virginia interstates using the Falling Weight Deflectometer, as well as data from the Virginia Department of Transportation Pavement Management System was used to validate several applications. The results of the research indicated that including the structural index into the network-level decision process can facilitate a greater understanding about the behavior of the performance of a pavement. Furthermore, the index that was proposed for network-level evaluation of flexible pavements in Virginia was used to develop enhanced deterioration models for particular pavement treatments, and demonstrate the dependence of pavement performance on its structural capacity. It was shown that the functional characteristics of a pavement alone are not adequate to describe the structural condition of the pavement. Therefore, the structural condition, e.g., based on the results from deflection testing, should be considered when making network-level pavement management decisions.},

The study also sought to identify whether any visual distraction occurred while the IVS information was being used. Notifications of speed zone changes along a roadway, of school zones, construction zones, and curves were visually displayed on a mobile device as per project requirements. Sixty participants (balanced for gender) completed the study, which involved performing a simulated drive in one of three conditions along 24 mi of roadways. The three system-on groups represented the following information conditions: IVS plus navigation, navigation only, or IVS only. Each group also completed a baseline (system-off) condition. The driving performance results indicated that drivers complied with most speed zones whether IVS information was present or not; however, average speeds tended to be higher in the system-on conditions. Drivers in the IVS-only condition spent significantly less time looking at the in-vehicle display than drivers who were also presented with navigation information. Response time to a roadside visual detection task was significantly increased only in speed transition zones whether IVS information was present or not. This condition suggests that increased driver workload occurs during transitions to a new speed zone, particularly when drivers are required to search the environment for additional visual information (e.g., signs, pedestrians, other vehicles).},

abstract = {To promote smoother freeway traffic flow during evacuations, ramps may be closed and thus reduce the number of merging and related speed reduction points. Deciding which ramps to close can be treated as an optimization problem in which the decision variables are integers that indicate whether the ramp is open or closed. This paper examines the problem under multiple demand and budget scenarios for no-notice evacuations. Through the optimization formulation and solution method, optimized closure plans are developed for each scenario and compared with the do-nothing case, and an existing plan is developed with professional judgment. The optimized plans outperform the others in the evacuees' total travel time but are sometimes associated with decreases in overall network throughput. Three ramp closures, consistent across the scenarios, are explored as a reduced closure plan, and evacuee benefits are identified for all of the scenarios over the do-nothing option except in the most congested background traffic scenario. However, even in the most congested case, the three-ramp closure plan improved evacuees' travel times over the plan developed without analytical and simulation support. Although the exact optimized ramp closure plan varies across scenarios and budgets, overlap of the plans can help generate a smaller closure plan that provides benefits over plans that are strictly judgment based and over the do-nothing option in less congested cases.},

abstract = {Traffic signals provide service for multiple modes of travelers including vehicles, trucks, transit, pedestrians, bicycles, and emergency vehicles. Past research and experience have demonstrated the benefits of providing traffic signal priority for individual modes such as transit, emergency vehicles, and trucks. However, the priority treatment for each travel mode was addressed independently within the normal traffic signal operation. With the advancement of the wireless communication technologies, the global positioning system, and the development of the vehicle to vehicle (v2v) and vehicle to infrastructure (v2i) systems, called Connected Vehicles (CV), there is an opportunity to simultaneously identify, prioritize, and sever requests from multiple vehicles. This paper demonstrates the implementation of a decision framework for prioritizing requests for service from multiple modes within an integrated traffic signal control framework. The framework has been developed and tested using a microscopic hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) environment based on VISSIM and field tested and demonstrated in a live network of six intersections in Anthem, Arizona. The successful demonstration shows that the potential for safer and more efficient multi-modal traffic signal operations is highly possible.},

Novel bound search strategies 6 and an iterative reordering structure are proposed to solve this problem. Unoccupied capacities are utilized as prima-7 ry resources for additional trains and necessary train connections can be guaranteed in the new timetable. 8 From numerical investigations the proposed framework and associated techniques are tested and shown to 9 be effective. For a certain amount of additional trains, the bounds are tight and optimal insertions could be calculat-10 ed in a few seconds. For more additional trains, a moderate amount of reordering actions are sufficient to handle 11 disturbances and the search space is reduced to solve real and complex problems efficiently.},

It is mainly commuters who use guarded 53 bicycle sheds and better-quality bicycles, while students try to avoid these extra costs.

abstract = {Interaction between pedestrians and drivers can be witnessed everywhere in the road network, particularly at intersections and mid-block crossings. At unsignalized mid-block crosswalks, drivers typically don't expect pedestrians, and as a result, pedestrian safety may be compromised. The yielding behavior is affected by various aspects of the roadway and driving environment, including vehicle dynamics, pedestrian's behavior, roadway function and design. Traditional roadway design indicates that if a driver has adequate sight distance to the crosswalk, then he or she should stop for the pedestrian. This paper focuses on two discrete crossing behaviors -pedestrians standing on the curb; and the other was that pedestrians had stepped off the curb. The data were collected in Boston, MA during the AM and PM peak on a typical weekday. The results show that fewer drivers yielded to pedestrians who were standing on the curb, versus those that were standing in the crosswalk (8.5{\%} of the drivers yielded to pedestrians on the curb and 21.7{\%} yielded when pedestrians had stepped off the curb). Regardless of pedestrian location, more drivers yielded the right of way during the AM peak as compared to the PM peak.},

abstract = {Many congested intersections have heavy traffic volumes on movements where there is insufficient capacity due to geometric limitations. This paper presented an unconventional approach to increase the capacity of heavily congested intersections: it opens up exit-lanes for left-turn traffic dynamically with the help of an additional traffic light installed at the median opening (the pre-signal), which we shall refer as the exit-lanes for left-turn (EFL) control. Based on this concept, an optimization problem for the EFL was formulated as a Mix-Integer-Non-Linear-Program (MINLP), in which the geometric layout, main-signal timing and pre-signal timing were integrated. The MINLP was solved by transforming it into a series of Mix-Integer-Linear-Programs (MILPs). The latter problem can be solved by the standard branch-and-bound technique. The results of extensive numerical analysis and VISSIM simulation showed that the EFL approach could increase intersection capacity and reduce traffic delay substantially, especially under high left-turn demand. Moreover, the EFL control can be applied to one or multiple legs simultaneously, thus it is particularly useful for intersections with unbalanced left demand and degree of saturation among different travel directions.},

abstract = {Recent advances in onboard vehicle data recording devices have created an abundance of naturalistic driving data. The amount of data exceeds the resources available for analysis; this situation forces researchers to focus on analyses of critical events and to use simple heuristics to identify those events. Critical event analysis eliminates the context that can be critical in understanding driver behavior and can reduce the generalizability of the analysis. This work introduced a method of naturalistic driving data analysis that would allow researchers to examine entire data sets by reducing the sets by more than 90{\%}. The method utilized a symbolic data reduction algorithm, symbolic aggregate approximation (SAX), which reduced time series data to a string of letters. SAX can be applied to any continuous measurement, and SAX output can be reintegrated into a data set to preserve categorical information. This work explored the application of SAX to speed and acceleration data from a naturalistic driving data set and demonstrated SAX's integration with other methods that could begin to tame the complexity of naturalistic data.},

This hypothesis is based on a binary classification of land area into two categories, urban and rural. This paper applies a novel seven-category typology of rurality to the 2009 National Household Travel Survey to investigate the true prevalence of nonmotorized travel behavior in multiple types of rural areas. We find that walking and bicycling are more common in rural areas than previously thought. The paper tests additional hypotheses about trip purpose and trip length to understand more about these " active " trips. These results have direct relevance for the work of planners, decision-makers, and walking and bicycling advocates in rural areas and at the federal level.

The role of real time information in supporting travellers during service disruption is poorly understood, particularly in rural areas. In this paper we first illustrate and categorise travel disruptions. Real time passenger information (RTPI) requirements - particularly for rural public transport users - are then identified for each stage and type of disruption through interviews and focus groups with rural passengers. Also patterns of passenger behaviour during travel and transport disruptions are identified. In the light of this research a conceptual model of the recovery phases of disruption is presented to align the RTPI requirements for each recovery phase of disruption. The evaluation of the model through a series of focus groups and interviews with passengers, transport service providers, and government agencies is then discussed. The paper concludes by suggesting necessary advances in digital technologies for RTPI systems to support public transport users during disruptions.},

abstract = {Managed lanes, or high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, have been implemented across the United States to improve the utility of existing road facilities. The pricing algorithm in managed lanes is the critical component in ensuring that the desired level of service metrics is met. Some pricing algorithms currently in use are static algorithms, and others adopt a dynamic strategy. Static pricing algorithms do not account for the changes in real-time traffic conditions. However, dynamic pricing algorithms are reactive in nature and do not account for the potential demand for actual future time intervals for which the toll is determined. The HOT-lane system is nonlinear and complex in nature; this complexity leads to high levels of instability in such a system. The complexity has been increasing because of the growth in demand as well as incorporation of other, noninteracting strategies that are implemented to address this demand. Therefore, more sophisticated designs of the pricing algorithm are needed for HOT-lane pricing control. A model-based pricing algorithm is proposed for determining the toll rate dynamically to maximize the throughput on the HOT lanes while maintaining a desired level of service. It consists of both proactive and reactive components to achieve fast response to real-time changes and maintain a steady, maximal traffic flow. The controller structure also incorporates active bottleneck management to maintain optimal traffic flow under stressed conditions. Implementation of this controller has shown high utilization of HOT lanes while ensuring the desired level of service.},

abstract = {This paper presents a methodology to evaluate the effectiveness of a bicycle treatment (bike boxes) at intersections using a before-after surrogate safety analysis based on longitudinal video-data analysis. As a surrogate safety measure, cyclists' red-light violations are quantified for two periods before and two periods after the installation of a bicycle box at a signalized intersection in Montreal. For this purpose several hours of video were collected before and after the installation of the treatment. Based on the video data, red-light violations and potentially associated factors were collected for each cyclist that crossed the intersection, such as sex, age, group size, use of helmet, whether a cyclist stopped before crossing, vehicle-cyclist gap, etc. Violations with a short vehicle-cyclist gap were classified as dangerous (i.e., those situations in which cyclists pass the intersection during the red phase with a small vehicle gap). For the data analysis, a multinomial logit regression technique was used to identify the factors that increase or decrease the probability of cyclist violations as well as their changes over time. Both raw estimates and model estimates show that the presence of a bicycle box has a significant impact on the total number of cyclists' violations; however, the impact on the number of dangerous violations is not clear. More video data from other intersections before and after the treatment implementation is required to validate these preliminary conclusions. Moreover, the video-data generation and surrogate approach proposed here can be applied to the evaluation of other bicycle treatments.},

We propose a real-time mathematical programming model using a rolling horizon approach for transfer's coordination. The single control decision in this model consider, using a rolling horizon approach, the holding decision at a transfer station in order to prevent a certain fraction (maybe not all of them) of the transferring passengers from missing a connecting vehicle. The performance of the strategy model is obtained from a stochastic simulation and then compared against a no control strategy. The results show that the proposed strategy reduces waiting times for the transferring passengers in over 20{\%}, while not affecting the travel time distribution along the line. Furthermore, the variability in all performance indicators is reduced when compared to no control.},

abstract = {Neighborhood effects have recently become a focus of interest in transportation research, whereby transportation mode choice is not only affected by an individual?셲 characteristics and the physical conditions of the transportation system, but also by the mode choices of that individual?셲 neighbors. This study supports the neighborhood effects argument, using a spatial econometrics approach and data from The Ohio State University?셲 2011 Campus Transportation Survey. A spatial probit model of commuters??mode choices (auto versus non-auto) is estimated, accounting for spatial autocorrelation. The results reveal that the more non-auto (walking, bicycling, and transit) users are residing around an individual, the more attractive these modes become for this individual. In addition to these spatial effects, the results indicate that students are more likely to commute to campus by non-auto modes, as compared to faculty and staff, and that the probability of choosing non-auto modes decreases with distance from campus. Feeling of safety, duration of travel, flexibility of departure time, ability to make stops on the way to/from campus, and attitudes towards auto use (being a car patron or a captive user), also affect an individual?셲 mode choice. These findings provide campus transportation planners new insights on the factors influencing travel mode choices.},

abstract = {Truck queuing at marine container terminal gates is one of the main sources of delay at terminals and is an area of concern because delays increase the logistical cost of transporting a container. Previous studies on terminal gates focused on the performance of strategies such as the appointment system and extended gate hours. However, no study has yet evaluated the performance of pooling trucks into a single queue at the gates. Previous studies on pooling offered mixed opinions on whether pooling was beneficial, but none of those studies attempted to model the movements of the entities in the queue. In a human system (no vehicles), the movements are not as important because the time to move up one space in the queue is negligible; however, because of the size and weight of the trucks at the gates, the time to move is significant and should be considered. A study was conducted with agent-based simulation to model the terminal gate system with two queuing strategies, a pooled queue and nonpooled queues, because analytical solutions could not capture vehicle movements within the queue. In the study, a car-following model was used to capture a realistic representation of how vehicles move within the queue. The developed simulation model was used to evaluate queuing strategies in various conditions. Results indicate that the use of a pooled queue yields significantly lower average queuing times and lower variability in queuing times.},

abstract = {1 Travel time prediction is highly useful in traffic management and planning. Its accuracy relies 2 on the accuracy of travel time data. Various sensors are being used to collect travel time data, 3 including link-based and node-based sensors. Recently, a new method in collecting travel 4 time data was introduced using Bluetooth technology to detect Bluetooth devices in the 5 vehicles to determine their travel time. Bluetooth sensors are generally node-based sensors. 6 Despite the amount of literature available on sensor location problems, few discuss 7 using node-based sensors to collect travel time. Different projects in collecting travel time 8 data using Bluetooth Sensors prompted the study of the problem of sensor location in 9 installing Bluetooth sensors and, more generally, node-based sensors. The goal of this study is 10 to find the optimal number of node-based sensors and their deployment location in a network 11 in order to collect highly reliable travel time data. Two formulations are proposed for 12 modeling this problem. The formulations consider a new set of reliability factors. Using these 13 formulations, sensor location problem can be solved optimally for large networks. The 14 proposed formulations are not restricted to Bluetooth sensors and can also be applied to any 15 node-based sensor location problem. Various case studies using real world networks are 16 conducted to compare the results obtained from both proposed formulations with available 17 mothodologies in the literature.

We conclude by discussing how integrating our modeling 13 framework into the travel demand modeling routinely performed when developing regional 14 transpiration plans can lead to more environmentally and financially sustainable transportation 15 plans. Regional strategies that minimize exposure, rather than inventories, could be identified, 16 environmental justice concerns are easily identified, and projects likely to cause local pollution 17 " hotspots " can be proactively screened out, saving time and money for the transportation agency. 18 The results will also be useful for epidemiology studies and optimizing the location of new air 19 quality monitors.},

abstract = {Be{\v{s}}inovi{\'{c}} et al. 2 ABSTRACT Overweight trucks damage the road infrastructure, contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, and represent a potential treat to traffic safety. An efficient way of reducing the number of overweight trucks is to implement weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems that are designed to record axle and gross vehicle weights as they pass over a sensor. Although they are effective in detecting overweight trucks, WIM systems are costly and only their efficient allocation can justify the investment. So far several models were developed to optimize the location of WIM checkpoints, but they were all built on a simplifying assumption that trucks travel along the shortest paths between their origins and destinations. This paper proposes a model that allocates WIM checkpoints while considering that overweight trucks try to bypass checkpoints along the shortest unmonitored detours. The problem is formulated as a binary program and applied to minimize the damage due to overweight trucks. This proposed model is applied in a realistic case study on the road network of Nevada. The results imply that considerable savings can be achieved by optimally allocating WIM checkpoints and that the proposed model can provide a valuable decision support for government agencies involved in road infrastructure maintenance and control.

To contend with the difficulty in capturing driver responses to VSL control, this study also proposes an advanced model that further adopts Kalman Filter to enhance the accuracy of traffic state prediction. Both models have been investigated with different traffic conditions and different control objectives. The authors extensive simulation analysis with a VISSIM simulator, calibrated with field data from a previous VSL demonstration site, has revealed that both proactive VSL control models can significantly reduce the travel time and number of stops over the recurrent bottleneck locations, and the one with minimizing speed variance as its control objective clearly outperforms other models, with respect to several selected MOEs.},

This link is achieved by formulating a structural equations model (SEM) that keeps the generic features of the approach as applied to time use modeling but improves the incorporation of expenses in addition to activities and socioeconomic variables. The new equation on expenses in a leisure activity permits the calculation of a revealed willingness to pay for leisure, which the authors show to differ theoretically from the value of leisure that emerges from a microeconomic formulation (value of time as a resource).

The TNM does not currently account for pavement type or condition, atypical vehicle noise populations, transparent shielding, reflections, or meteorological conditions. For these reasons, noise measurements are conducted, and traffic noise model adjustments and calibration factors are developed. For several highway studies recently conducted in California, onboard sound intensity (OBSI) measurements were made concurrent to the traditional wayside noise measurements along the length of the freeway to be studied, to account for the existing pavement type and condition of the freeway. Use of OBSI data, when compared with the calculated TNM average pavement OBSI level, has helped to interpret calibration factors that had been developed in the TNM on the basis of standard modeling practices. A description is given of how the OBSI can be used as a supplementary tool to help interpret calibration factors developed for a TNM model.},

abstract = {Many congested intersections have heavy traffic volume on movements for which there is insufficient capacity because of geometric limitations. Installing presignals at midblock locations and reorganizing traffic upstream of the approach of an intersection combine to be a promising and cost-effective method for addressing these capacity limitations. A coordinated optimization model was developed for an isolated intersection approach with presignals to increase the protected left-turn phase capacity. The presignal model was based on two principles: (a) explicitly capture the interaction between the presignal and the main signal by modeling the queuing process and capacity constraints of temporal and spatial limitations of the intersection and (b) optimize the signal timings of both the presignal and the main signal as well as the offset between them to produce the best operational strategy for the approach. The minimum green time required and the delay-minimization problems are considered. Extensive experimental analysis has shown that the presignal model out-performs the conventional control method (without presignal). Sensitivity analysis of the signal timing method that will assist traffic engineers with selecting the appropriate length of the sorting area, phase sequence, and early starting time of presignals was conducted. The results from the study offer a basis for traffic practitioners, researchers, and authorities on which to design and utilize presignals in locations where there is a need to increase intersection capacity for congested movements.},

abstract = {To evaluate the road safety development of a country over time, the percentage change in the number of road fatalities is traditionally the main indicator. However, simply considering the reduction in the road fatalities may not correctly reflect the real improvement in road safety because the transport circumstances of a country underlying the road fatalities also change every year. In this study, we present a new way for measuring the road safety performance change over time, which is to use the technique of data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the Malmquist productivity index. In doing so, we can not only focus on the evolution of road safety final outcomes within a given period, but also take the changes of different measures of exposure in the same period into account. In the application, the DEA-based Malmquist productivity index (DEA-MI) is used to measure the extent to which the EU countries have improved their road safety performance over the period 2001-2010. More objective and insightful results are obtained compared to the ones based on the traditional indicator. The results show considerable road safety progress in most of the Member States during these ten years, and the fatality risk rather than the fatality number on Europe's roads has actually been reduced by approximately half. However, the situation differed considerably from country to country. The decomposition of the DEA-MI into 'efficiency change' and 'technical change' further reveals that the bulk of the improvement during the last decade was attained through the adoption of productivity-enhancing new technologies throughout the road transport sector in Europe, rather than through the relatively underperforming countries catching up with those best-performing ones. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Data are from 508 households representing new vehicle buyers in San Diego County, California in 2011. The mixed-mode survey collected information about access to residential recharge infrastructure, three days of driving patterns, and desired vehicle designs and motivations via design games. Across the higher and lower price scenarios, a majority of consumers designed and selected some form of PHEV for their next new vehicle, smaller numbers designed an HEV or a conventional vehicle, and only a few percent designed an EV. Of those who did not design an EV, the most frequent concerns with EVs were limited range, charger availability, and higher vehicle purchase prices. Positive interest in HEVs, PHEVs and EVs was associated with vehicle images of intelligence, responsibility, and support of the environment and nation (United States). The distribution of vehicle designs suggests that cheaper, smaller battery PHEVs may achieve more short-term market success than larger battery PHEVs or EV.

The objective of this paper is to maximize the benefits of parking management by optimal pricing and sensing. A generic parking model is presented for a set of sequential parking lots. Provided with the real-time parking occupancy information pricing informa-tion, travelers make parking location choices to minimize their generalized travel cost. We consider a general parking searching time function with respect to the occupancy. When the time-varying travel demand is fixed, we show that the system optimum (SO) pricing solution is not unique. The non-uniqueness indeed offers much flexibility to set different dynamic pricing schemes for a variety of parking management goals. Two special parking management strategies are discussed here, flow proportionality and least-square minimum congestion. The model can be implemented in practice by utilizing parking sensors to set optimal on-line parking prices. It is found that the parking pricing and the provision of occupancy information jointly serve as effective ways of managing traffic.},

abstract = {This article identifies the truck routing priorities of freight companies through a survey of Washington State shippers, carriers, and receivers. To elicit these priorities, the survey prompted the respondents to score fifteen routing items with respect to each item's influence on route choice. Item response theory and latent class analysis illuminated priorities that were common among all survey respondents and priorities that were differentiating among the sample. Minimizing cost and meeting customer requirements were priorities for all. The influence of other items such as road grade, hours of service limits, and driver availability depended on whether the respondent was best described as a long-haul, local-regional, or urban trucking provider. These three classes of companies were derived from the latent class analysis, and each class has a distinct response pattern to the fifteen routing items. This result suggests that truck routing priorities are not constant and uniform across a state's trucking industry but rather variable and dependent on trip length. The paper concludes with recommendations as to how these priorities can be implemented within a truck routing model. TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. Rowell, Gagliano, and Goodchild 2 INTRODUCTION Freight transportation provides a vital service to global supply chains and stimulates the economy. With the pressure to decrease operating costs, the increase in occurrence of disruptive events (e.g., winter storms, social-political protests, floods), and the downturn in the economy, it is important that transportation investments provide reliability, redundancy, and cost-effectiveness. Prior to deciding on an investment, Departments of Transportation (DOT) must forecast how freight flows will respond to proposed changes; this process often involves mathematical models. For a model to be effective, it must accurately represent shipper and carrier decision-making processes. Shortest path algorithms are commonly used in passenger and freight travel modeling. These algorithms assign trips between origin and destination pairs to the least expensive route. Simple shortest path algorithms that do not consider constraints such as road grade and traffic congestion may incorrectly describe truck behavior. To determine whether a simple shortest path assumption is appropriate for truck routing and to improve the quality of truck routing algorithms, the research team elicited the priorities freight companies employ when making a route choice. This task utilized a survey, described in detail in Section 3: Survey Development and Deployment, distributed to an extensive sample of Washington State (WA) shippers and receivers, freight forwarders, and licensed motor carriers. The survey respondents scored fifteen routing items believed to influence route choice on an ordinal scale ranging from no influence to high influence. The routing items were determined from a review of routing software currently available for commercial use. Using item response theory and latent variable modeling, statistical methods applicable to categorical data, the research team identified a subset of discriminating routing items whose scores varied widely across the sample of companies. Initial survey analysis exposed travel time, total cost, and meeting customer requirements as top priorities for all companies (i.e., non-discriminating). Further analysis revealed that certain items, specifically the location of refueling stations, road grade and curvature, driver availability, availability of truck parking, and hours of service limits become influential in route choice when trip length is considered. Companies scored this subset of items differently depending on whether they were a local service provider, a regional service provider, or a long haul provider. These three classes represent three different response patterns to the fifteen routing items. The research team then searched for characteristics of freight companies, i.e., covariates, that predict which class the company belongs to and consequently its response pattern to the subset of discriminating routing items. Outputs of this latent class analysis are the probabilities, conditioned by the covariate, that a company belongs to each of the three classes. A DOT can use these classes and their corresponding response patterns to predict how their region's companies prioritize route choice items and how the companies will respond to policy changes. Given the spatial nature of these classes, a trip-length-based logic can be utilized within a routing model to apply different priorities to trips of different lengths. This is particularly useful since many existing models do not assume carrier decisions but allow assignment of trips to routes based on origin-destination pairs. LITERATURE REVIEW Recently a few studies have sought to identify the factors that determine route choice. Regan and Garrido (2002) concluded, via literature review, that when choosing mode, shippers value service and reliability over cost and prioritize timeliness and availability over suitability, firm},

abstract = {The focus of this paper is to learn the daily activity engagement patterns of travelers using Support Vector Machines (SVM), a modeling approach that is widely used in Artificial intelligence and Machine Learning. It is postulated that an individual's choice of activities depends not only on socio-demographic characteristics but also on previous activities of individual on the same day. In the paper, Markov Chain models are used to study the sequential choice of activities. The dependencies between activity type, activity sequence and sociodemographic data are captured by employing Conditional Random Fields. In order to learn model parameters, we use sequential multinomial logit models and multiclass Support Vector Machines (K-SVM) with two different dependency structures. In the first dependency structure, it is assumed that type of activity at time ‘t' depends on the last previous activity and socio demographic data, whereas in the second structure we assume activity selection at time ‘t' depends on all of the individual's previous activity types on the same day and socio-demographic characteristics. The models are applied to data drawn from a set of California households and a comparison of the accuracy of estimation indicates the superiority of K-SVM with the first dependency structure over other models tested. Additionally, we show that accuracy in estimating activity patterns increases using different sets of explanatory variables or tuning parameters of the kernel function in K-SVM.},

abstract = {The objective of this paper is to illustrate the sensitivity of evacuation travel time estimates in relation to assumptions about evacuee route choice behavior. The user equilibrium (UE) assignment procedure in which evacuees are assumed to choose the shortest (or fastest) path from their origins to destinations is considered as the base case. Few studies have documented the actual route choice behavior of evacuees during a hurricane. These studies were used to develop realistic route choice behavior assumptions: the types of route choices and proportion of evacuees for those types. The impact of route choice behavior on evacuation performance, especially travel times, was then explored with a large-scale regional simulation model of the Hampton Roads, Virginia, region. The model was developed in an earlier study with real-world network data and actual evacuee behavioral data. The analysis indicates that using UE to generate average travel time estimates for evacuation planning significantly underestimates the actual evacuation travel times. The extent of underestimation of evacuation travel times depends on the total evacuation demand (a function of storm intensity) and the percentage of evacuees willing to use en route information to seek alternate routes when facing congestion. For the three en route percentages reported in the literature (30{\%}, 50{\%}, and 70{\%}), the UE travel times were 58{\%}, 42{\%}, and 33{\%} lower than actual travel times in a Category 1 evacuation; 94{\%}, 71{\%}, and 58{\%} lower than in a Category 2 evacuation; and 90{\%}, 69{\%}, and 54{\%} lower than in a Category 3 evacuation.},

The use of several new technologies (e.g., Bluetooth) has been proposed to alleviate this problem. One of the features of the VTI communication technology is probe vehicle data collection, in which vehicles collect information on, for example, their location and speed.

Two imperative considerations from the transit planning viewpoint are (a) the remaining life of the total fleet and (b) the cost required to maintain the fleet size. While the former is a quality measure indicating the health of the fleet, the latter is an economic measure requiring minimum expenditure levels. Ideally, agencies would like to maximize the total remaining life of the fleet and minimize the total cost required to maintain the fleet size.

Since locations of available rail rights-of-way were typically chosen long ago to serve the needs of rail freight customers, the majority of commuter rail users do not live or work within walking distance of potential commuter rail stations. Minimizing access time to rail stations and final destinations is crucial if commuter rail is to be a viable option for commuters. This paper focuses on real time optimization of the Commuter Rail Circulator Route Network Design Problem (CRCNDP) supposing that real-time demand data can be obtained partially through users' smart phone app. The route configuration of the circulator system – where to stop and the route among the stops – is determined on a real-time basis by employing adaptive Tabu Search to quickly solve a Mixed Integer Programming problem with an objective to minimize total cost incurred to both transit users and transit operators. Numerical experiments are executed and methodologies are proposed to find the threshold for the minimum fraction of travelers that would need to report their destinations via smart phone to guarantee the practical value of optimization based on real-time collected demand against a base case defined as the average performance of all possible routes.},

abstract = {Ramp metering has been successfully implemented in many states to improve traffic operations on freeways. Studies have documented the positive mobility and safety benefits of ramp metering. However, there have been no studies on the use of ramp metering for work zones. This paper reports the results from the first deployment of temporary ramp meters in work zones in the United States. Temporary ramp meters were deployed at seven work zones in Missouri. Safety measures such as driver compliance, merging behavior, speed differentials, lane changing, and braking maneuvers were extracted from video-based field data. Mobility analysis was conducted with a calibrated simulation model, and the total delays were obtained for under capacity, at capacity, and over capacity conditions. This evaluation suggests that temporary ramp meters should be deployed only at work zone locations where there is potential for congestion and turned on only during periods of high congestion. The compliance analysis showed that noncompliance could be a major safety issue in the deployment of temporary ramp meters. The use of a three-section instead of a traditional two-section signal head for ramp metering produced significantly higher compliance rates. Mobility analysis revealed that ramp metering produced delay savings for high traffic volume work zones. For flows below capacity, ramp metering is not recommended because it increases total delays.},

The enclosed Chinese toll system provides an opportunity for the toll data to be used for monitoring mobility performance. However, quality control of such toll data is challenging. The toll data from the Jingshen Expressway in China was analyzed and assessed for mobility performance evaluation. Quality control criteria were developed to filtering out erroneous data and off-network stops. The mobility performance measures, namely, Travel Time Index, Congestion Duration, and Planning Time Index were calculated for the Jingshen Expressway network. The research shows the toll data which is essentially Origination and Destination (OD) data in nature can be used for overall mobility performance evaluation with sufficient quality control. However, the limitation of such data is that it is based on OD pairs. The mobility performance was assumed to be consistent within an adjacent OD pair. It is suggested that the toll data combined with spot speeds from other data sources, such as fixed-point sensors or surveillance camera, be used for more in-depth study.},

abstract = {1 In existing micro-scale fuel consumption and emission models such as MOVES and 2 VERSIT+, a power demand-based parameter is commonly used to characterize the 3 traffic performance and vehicle activities because of its strong correlation with fuel 4 consumption and emissions. Both Vehicle Specific Power (VSP) and the natural 5 logarithm of the Total Absolute Difference of the vehicle instantaneous speed 6 (Ln(TAD)) are commonly used power demand-based parameters. This paper is 7 intended to compare two fuel consumption models that are developed based on the 8 VSP with Ln(TAD) for fuel consumption predictions for Light-Duty Vehicles (LDVs) 9 on urban roads. After collecting and processing field vehicle activities and fuel 10 consumption data, two fuel consumption models for LDVs, one based on the VSP and 11 another one based on Ln(TAD) are developed. Then, total fuel consumptions and fuel 12 consumption factors for each test are calculated for a comparison with the field data. 13 In order to examine prediction accuracies of both models for urban expressways and 14 arterial roads, fuel consumption factors at different speed bins for expressways and 15 arterial roads are calculated separately. Further, the study develops relationships 16 between the VSP distribution and Ln(TAD) and the average travel speed in order to 17 develop the capability to estimate the fuel consumption by using the average travel 18 speed as the sole input data. Subsequently, prediction accuracies based on the 19 developed relationships are compared. Finally, characteristics and regularities of 20 micro-scale fuel consumption models based on the VSP and Ln(TAD) for LDVs on 21 urban roads are identified.},

The possibility of transporting greater volumes of chlorine and anhydrous ammonia via the marine highway system was investigated. Currently, there is no coast-to-coast (and only limited inland waterway) activity related to transportation of either chemical. The researchers identified major obstacles to development and expansion and corresponding potential courses of action. Geographical dispersion of producers and consumers works against greater waterborne volumes. Chlorine and anhydrous ammonia are characterized by mature, low-growth markets. Expansion of marine services will require significant capital costs and time to set up new terminals. There is great concern over the current condition of the system of locks and dams. Marine carriers face the same economic ramifications from risk of catastrophic accidents as rail carriers, necessitating the establishment of a new risk paradigm. The federal government could provide initial funds and expedite the permit process to allow new marine highway ventures to develop more rapidly and could also identify and assist potential new import points for both chemicals into the United States. Finally, the federal government must indicate its commitment to maintain the current inland waterway system. However, with no measures that can overcome the geographical dispersion of producers and users, the lack of density in any given corridor, and the already mature markets, significant expansion of the transport of toxic inhalation hazard materials via marine highways is not anticipated.},

The first choice behavior is developed as an ordered-response model based on the number of physically active recreational activities pursued during the workday. The second model is developed as a binary-response model that examines worker's active travel choices; whether or not the worker used any active mode of travel during the same workday. The current study contributes to the field by improving our understanding and knowledge of factors influencing worker's physically active activity-travel behavior. The study provides several insights regarding the role (and constraints) of employment in individual's active choices while demonstrating that transportation and public health policy makers can mutually benefit from encouraging workers to be physically active (from an activity and/or travel perspective). Using a flexible and robust copula modeling methodology, we explore the 'true' correlation (or dependence) between the two behavior choices that might occur due to the presence of unobserved factors, in addition to the examination of various observed factors, suggesting a simultaneous low or simultaneously high propensity toward being physically active across workers. Overall, the study unifies and reveals the integrated nature of the public health and transportation fields thereby providing a distinct view of active/inactive choice behavior.},

The 5 Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization (HRTPO), however, has a long-standing relationship with the 6 military community and has taken steps to increase related efforts in recent years. The HRTPO has advanced the 7 cause of planning in Hampton Roads—and, by example, in the United States—through a coordinated approach to 8 meeting the transportation needs of the military located in the Hampton Roads region. 9 In response to military concerns regarding local traffic congestion and delays, the HRTPO Board placed 10 greater emphasis on military transportation planning in the region by endorsing annual military briefings by military 11 representatives to the MPO Board, and by including a military needs study in its work program. The Hampton 12 Roads Military Transportation Needs Study, an on-going effort by the HRTPO, is reportedly the first and only 13 attempt of an MPO to identify solutions to the transportation needs of local military. The purpose of this paper is to 14 inform other metropolitan areas about the integration of the military into the transportation planning process in 15 Hampton Roads and to provide a summary of key findings from the region's Military Transportation Needs Study. 16 Other MPOs can apply the methodologies, results, successes, and lessons learned from Hampton Roads to their 17 respective regions.},

WisDOT felt that the department would greatly benefit from a review of these new practices to evaluate their effectiveness, determine if they had benefits for future use and, if so, investigate how they could be adopted by the department as best practices. This study was undertaken to identify and evaluate the best practices used on these projects and develop an implementation methodology for the most effective best practices. Analysis of these practices resulted in identifying the top best practices by project type and those that WisDOT should focus on for statewide implementation. A complete list of the final 49 best practices selected is provided with an example of the implementation information that was developed for each best practice. Each best practice is identified by the project management emphasis area (Project Management, Financial Reporting, Document Control, and Change Management) so that WisDOT can select a specific best practice based upon the project need or goals. Each best practice is also categorized as meeting primary and secondary objectives so that WisDOT staff can quickly identify a specific best practice to meet a particular project management need. Each listed best practice identifies the relative cost to implement and the types of projects it is most applicable to.},

abstract = {The use of autonomous vehicles is attracting more and more attention as a promising approach to improving both highway safety and efficiency. Most previous studies on autonomous intersection management relied heavily on custom-built simulation tools to implement and evaluate their control algorithms, but the use of nonstandard simulation platforms makes the comparison of systems almost impossible. Furthermore, without support from standard simulation platforms, reliable and trustworthy simulation results are hard to obtain. In this context, this paper explores a way to model autonomous intersections through the use of VISSIM, a standard microscopic simulation platform. A reservation-based intersection control system named autonomous control of urban traffic (ACUTA) was introduced and implemented in VISSIM through the use of VISSIM's external driver model. The operational and safety performance characteristics of ACUTA were evaluated with VISSIM's easy-to-use evaluation tools. In comparison with the results obtained with optimized signalized control, significantly reduced delays, along with a higher intersection capacity and lower volume-to-capacity ratios under various traffic demand conditions, resulted from the use of ACUTA. The safety performance of ACUTA was evaluated by use of the surrogate safety measure model, and few conflicts between vehicles within the intersection were detected. Moreover, the key steps and elements for implementation of ACUTA in VISSIM were introduced. These steps and elements can be useful for other researchers and practitioners implementing their autonomous intersection control algorithms in a standard simulation platform. By use of a standard simulation platform, the performance characteristics of autonomous intersection control algorithms can eventually be compared.},

The purpose of this study is to 5 develop a quantitative method for evaluating the impact of different reduced traffic data 6 collection plans on the overall accuracy of the annual average daily traffic (AADT) estimation. 7 To compare the accuracy of ten reduced data collection plans with a base plan, the mean absolute 8 percentage error (MAPE) is calculated. In addition, the reduction effectiveness ratio (i.e., the 9 percent of reduced data collection cost to the percent of increased AADT estimation error) is 10 proposed in this study. Results of this study show that while the current practice, which 11 randomly selects data collection sites based on different cycles, performs well in maintaining 12 AADT estimation accuracy, it may not be the most cost-effective approach. Results also show 13 that certain types of sites, e.g., rural sites, lower AADT sites, and higher AADT variation sites, 14 tend to produce larger errors if they are not counted. These results imply that the proposed 15 method provides a quantitative means to evaluate different reduced data collection plans.

For a detailed description of the pilot test and a discussion of the results, see Holgu{\'{i}}n-Veras et al. (7). After the success of the pilot test, the U.S. Department of Transportation awarded the researchers additional funds for a larger implementation of the concept. Furthermore, after the pilot, New York City adopted OHD initiatives as part of its sustainable plans to reduce truck congestion on city streets (12). In addition, the FHWA Office of Freight Management and Operations created a new program, Off-Hours Freight Delivery Pilot Project Grants (13). This program supports research to explore the benefits of delivering goods during the off-hours in small-and medium-sized urban areas that have congestion problems. One of the key factors that contributed to the success in New York City was the comprehensive research into the development and analy-sis of the policy incentives. Behavior research played an important role in the development of these strategies and enabled the identi-fication of which policy mechanisms to use and which economic agents to target. More important, behavior research, by helping the users' behavioral changes to be understood, enabled researchers to assess the effectiveness of the policies in achieving the stated goals. Although great advances have been made, there is still much to be learned about the behavioral response of users (in this case, receiver and carrier companies). The objective of this paper is to explore the existence of behav-ioral changes in these economic agents. Specifically, the paper com-pares the stated behavioral patterns of receivers and carriers to OHD policies. The policies that target receivers are a tax deduction for the acceptance of OHDs (Scenario R1) and shipping costs discounts (Scenario R2). For the carriers, the policies are customer requests and toll savings when the carrier operates during the off-hours (Scenario C1) and customer requests and financial rewards per mile traveled during the off-hours (Scenario C2). To elucidate whether or not there were differences in the behavior, the authors analyzed the responses of carrier and receiver companies from two business areas: Manhattan and Brooklyn. This comparison is important because these areas are very different in terms of land use, employment patterns, and position in the supply chain. Manhattan is the consumer region par excellence and the terminus of the supply chains; Brooklyn is an intermediate processing and distribution point from which cargo is sent to other parts of the city, including Manhattan. This paper is organized as follows: the next section discusses the data used for the analyses; the third section compares the operational patterns of the receiver and carrier companies that participated in the study. The paper then transitions into a comparison of behav-ioral models for receivers and carriers toward certain OHD policies (fourth section) and concludes with a set of key findings. The analyses reported in this paper show the benefits of using behav-ioral research to understand the stated behavioral responses of different economic agents (receivers and carriers) to off-hour delivery policies in two major business areas in New York City: Manhattan and Brooklyn. These policies include shipping discounts and a tax deduction for receivers and customer requests combined with either financial rewards or toll discounts for carriers. Given the relatively small amount of research conducted into stated and revealed behavioral responses, the results for Manhattan and Brooklyn provide insights into the operations of receiver and carrier companies in areas with similar characteristics. In recent years, urban areas have experienced increased traffic con-gestion, particularly during regular business hours (Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.) that has been accentuated by freight truck traffic (1). As a result, researchers, planning and transportation organi-zations, and other institutions have developed and evaluated different initiatives to improve traffic conditions. In terms of truck traffic, the initiatives include truck restrictions, curbside and parking manage-ment, congestion pricing, and off-hour delivery (OHD) programs. From these initiatives, the fostering of an increase in deliveries dur-ing the off-hours (between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m.) has received increased attention (2–7). Recent work based on behavioral research identified the per-ceptions and challenges of OHDs (4). An important result showed the key role played by receivers in this type of policy and the effectiveness of providing financial incentives to these economic agents in exchange for the agents' acceptance of deliveries during the off-hours rather than imposing higher tolls on trucks during the peak hours (1, 4, 8–11). As part of a project sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation, a pilot test of the provision of financial incentives was conducted in Manhattan in New York City in 2010; the test included eight carriers and 25 receivers. The results not only evidenced the effectiveness of financial incentives in inducing a shift of receiver and carrier companies to OHDs but also the eco-nomic benefits of such a shift. The benefits came from increased average speeds (from the depot to the first customer the speeds were about 70{\%} faster during the off-hours than in the morning peaks, and customer-to-customer travel speeds were about 8 mph during the off-hours, compared with an average of 3 mph during regular hours); improvements in service times (reduced from an average of 1.8 h in},

abstract = {The objectives of this study are to: (1) examine the applicability of the double Poisson (DP) generalized linear model (GLM) for analyzing motor vehicle crash data characterized by over- and under-dispersion and (2) compare the performance of the DP GLM with the Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (COM-Poisson) GLM in terms of goodness-of-fit and theoretical soundness. The DP distribution has seldom been investigated and applied since its first introduction two decades ago. The hurdle for applying the DP is related to its normalizing constant (or multiplicative constant) which is not available in closed form. This study proposed a new method to approximate the normalizing constant of the DP with high accuracy and reliability. The DP GLM and COM-Poisson GLM were developed using two observed over-dispersed datasets and one observed under-dispersed dataset. The modeling results indicate that the DP GLM with its normalizing constant approximated by the new method can handle crash data characterized by over- and under-dispersion. Its performance is comparable to the COM-Poisson GLM in terms of goodness-of-fit (GOF), although COM-Poisson GLM provides a slightly better fit. For the over-dispersed data, the DP GLM performs similar to the NB GLM. Considering the fact that the DP GLM can be easily estimated with inexpensive computation and that it is simpler to interpret coefficients, it offers a flexible and efficient alternative for researchers to model count data. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {1 Recent travel demand modeling practices focus on micro, disaggregate, and activity level travel 2 behavior and patterns. The application of such practices requires detailed population information 3 in socio-economic and demographic data. For example, in a four-step travel demand model total 4 household and employment at Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) level are sufficient for trip 5 generation. However, in an activity based model more detailed information in the small area 6 (TAZ), such as population by different age categories and employment type, is required to 7 produce trip chaining and other details in the population synthesis step. Conventionally many 8 studies have used Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) to generate such detailed information. But, 9 IPF suffers from severe drawbacks and is blind to detailed synthesis of variables. In this paper, a 10 novel approach is presented where population by age category evolves over time period using 11 logistic regression technique. The methodology is presented in three steps: coefficient 12 estimation, forecast and validation. First, the 1990 census data is used to model population by 13 age group in 2000 at the TAZ level. The model result is applied to forecast 2010 data for 14 validation. The methodology is applied to Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC) region and the 15 results show that the proposed model produces and forecasts reasonably well. The experiences 16 gained from this study are: (1) population evolution pattern in city area should be treated 17 separately from other, e.g., Baltimore City has a special population structure from other 18 surrounding counties; (2) this model provides a good estimation and prediction for the age group 19 0-24 and 35-64 and the problems occurs in 25-34 and 65+ groups, whose migration trend is not 20 consistent over time and cannot be captured by the current parameters alone.

Compared with the 42 conventional manual fare collection system, an AFC system has its inherent advantages in low 43 labor cost and high efficiency for fare collection and transaction data archival. Although it is 44 possible to collect highly valuable data from transit SC transactions, substantial efforts and 45 methodologies are needed for extracting such data because most AFC systems are not initially 46 designed for data collection. This is especially true for Beijing's AFC system, where a 47 passenger's boarding stop (origin) on a flat-rate bus is not recorded on the check-in scan. To 48 extract passengers' origin data from recorded SC transaction information, a Markov chain based 49 Bayesian decision tree algorithm is developed in this study. Using the time invariance property 50 of Markov chain, the algorithm is further optimized and simplified to reduce its computational 51 complexity to linear. This algorithm is verified with transit vehicles equipped with global 52 positioning system (GPS) data loggers.

Depending on the type of chaotic map used, such a queue can capture transient behavior, intermittency, steady state behavior, and complex distributions in arrival rates. These characteristics are especially desirable in many queueing applications in transportation. Earlier studies resulted in chaotic queueing models that cannot be estimated using observed arrivals. An alternative queueing model is presented along with methods to specify the model, interpret its results, and estimate its parameters. The proposed queueing model uses chaotic maps of inter-arrival times to generate arrivals so that parameters can be calibrated with observable data. A sample queue based on the ergodic logistic map is presented. To calibrate the mapping based on observed data, a joint parameter and state estimation algorithm is presented using the method of successive averages. An illustration is made with two connected queues to show how a purely deterministic queueing network can still result in a joint invariant distribution. The results offer a positive view of this method and its applicability to queueing problems, particularly in the field of transportation and dynamic network loading.},

Xiao et al. 1 ABSTRACT 1 2 Increasingly, transportation agencies are identifying performance measurement and benefits-cost 3 analyses of their Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) programs as high priority tasks. There 4 is a recognition that evaluating the benefits and costs of ITS implementations is necessary for 5 both planning and operation purposes. The evaluation of ITS as part of the transportation system 6 planning process has been mainly performed using sketch planning tools. However, the 7 assessment of ITS at the planning for operations and operation levels requires more detailed 8 analysis and can be based on data from different sources and/or using more detailed modeling 9 techniques such as macroscopic and microscopic simulation models. 10 11 This paper compares the abilities of a planning level ITS evaluation tool and a real-world 12 data-based evaluation tool, both developed by the authors, to assess the impacts of incidents and 13 incident management strategies. The results presented in this paper confirm the importance of 14 utilizing good estimates of incident rates and durations in the benefit analysis of incident 15 management. In addition, the results indicate the importance of using accurate estimates of 16 traffic demands in the evaluation tools. The results also confirm the ability of the deterministic 17 queuing analyses, when using accurate traffic and incident input parameters, to produce results 18 that are close to real-world measurements of delays, at least for the case study used in this paper.},

abstract = {1 The traffic flow heterogeneity caused by the different car-following dynamics among the different types 2 of vehicles has drawn increasing attention recently. This paper explores the characteristics of the four 3 types of car-truck car-following combinations, car-following-car (CC), car-following-truck (CT), truck-4 following-car (TC) and truck-following-truck (TT), and their impacts on traffic flow stability. A 5 heterogeneous traffic flow model based on Intelligent Driver Model (IDM) is proposed and calibrated 6 using the Next Generation Simulation (NGSIM) vehicle trajectory data. Based on the calibrated model, 7 the characteristics of the car-truck heterogeneous traffic flow are evaluated using the linear stability 8 analysis, fundamental diagrams, and shock wave characteristics. The linear stability analysis identifies 9 two critical factors that can influence the stability of the car-truck heterogeneous traffic flow: the 10 stability functions and the proportions of the four types of car-truck combination. Cars and trucks can 11 both stabilize and destabilize the traffic flow depending on the combination type and the equilibrium 12 velocity. Fundamental diagrams of car-truck heterogeneous flow are found to be determined by the 13 distance headways and proportions of the four types of combination. Moreover, the fundamental 14 diagrams of different car-truck combinations converge to several clusters with the same proportion 15 difference between the CC and TT combinations. The slowing-down effect of trucks on shock wave 16 speed in the car-truck heterogeneous traffic flow is also observed in the simulation.},

A lot of studies have found that positive relationship exists between transportation investment and economic growth. However, the magnitude of this impact stays in doubt. Based on analysis at different geographical level and with different modeling methods, the magnitude of the effect varies from around 0.5 to 0. Most of the existing researches look at this problem from an economic perspective, and several issues that are critical for transportation problems are neglected. This paper tried to solve the economic problem from a transportation perspective, and mainly addressed three issues: using physical measurement of highway infrastructure instead of financial measurement to avoid bias caused by price variance, inclusion of qualitative indicators besides quantitative indicators to represent the relationship between transportation infrastructure and economic growth more comprehensively, endogeneity of travel demand and transportation investment are considered simultaneously during the analysis. The results confirmed the existence of induced demand and induced supply. Transportation investment has a positive impact on economic growth. However, the effect is relatively small, with the short-run and long-run elasticity to be 0.018 and 0.028 respectively.},

Comparing with traditional Origin-Destination (O-D) estimation method such as survey based or traffic count based methods, LBSN data has the potential to provide O-D estimation with much higher temporal resolution at much lower cost. In this paper, the Foursquare LBSN data was used to analyze the O-D demand for the urban area near Austin, Texas, USA. A gravity model with two-regime friction factor functions is proposed to estimate the O-D matrix. The proposed methods are calibrated and evaluated against the ground truth O-D data from CAMPO (Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization).

Smart Transit Card (STC) is acclaimed as a very effective policy that increases 4 public transport convenience. Because STCs have been introduced and are successfully being 5 implemented in many cities in South Korea, this study reviews whole process from beginning to end on 6 the Integrated STC in South Korea. When the country first implemented STCs, it experienced diverse 7 problems such as inability to refund fares, a lack of system capacity, and suspension of some services. 8 South Korea has continued to solve the problems. Policymakers played key role to implement the policy, 9 while stakeholders forged agreements. Laws and systems were mended and improved to achieve 10 nationwide STC compatibility. Financial and technical improvements were implemented to enhance the 11 convenience of using STCs. These efforts certainly led to an enhanced convenience of and demand for 12 using public transport. The STC implementation case of South Korea is believed to provide good 13 implications to many cities that intend to introduce Integrated STC.},

abstract = {State departments of transportation (DOTs) accommodate public and private utility facilities within the state right of way based on state and federal utility accommodation rules. Due to the existence of utility facilities in the right of way, most transportation projects have a potential for utility conflicts at some stage of the project development process, such as interference between utility facilities and transportation design features. Delays and inefficiencies in activities related to the management of these conflicts have a tendency to proliferate into project letting and even construction, frequently resulting in higher bids, change orders and/or damage or delay claims, litigation by utility owners or agencies, safety concerns at the job site, frustration of the traveling public, and negative public perception about the project. Utility conflict tables, also known as utility conflict matrices (UCMs), are a common tool to organize and track utility conflict data used by many states. Research project R15-B (“Identification of Utility Conflicts and Solutions”) of the Strategic Highway Research Program 2 reviewed and documented current use of UCMs and developed optimized concepts that can contribute to standardization and optimization of the utility coordination process. This paper presents the results of these efforts and describes (a) the development of a prototype standalone utility conflict matrix that is compact (while at the same time useful to state DOTs) and facilitates tracking of utility conflict data, and (b) the development of a data architecture to facilitate an integrated approach to the management of utility conflicts and associated data.},

The way to reassure doubts is by 3 thorough calibration and validation of the model. However, there has been little research in this 4 particular area of evacuation modeling. In an effort to expand the literature on evacuation model 5 calibration/validation, the purpose of this paper is to provide a narrative in which the authors 6 discuss the calibrated and validated a regional-scale evacuation model using observed evacuation 7 data. 8 A traffic simulation model was developed to analyze traffic conditions associated with a 9 regional-level mass emergency evacuation for Southeastern Louisiana. The model was 10 constructed using the TRANSIMS transportation modeling system. The narrative details three 11 important aspects of traffic modeling: trip assignment convergence, macro-level calibration, and 12 network flow validation. Similar results were found after testing two convergence criteria sets. A 13 " descending " criteria set was ultimately chosen since it could lead to a more robust routing 14 solution. During the calibration procedure, it was difficult to determine which parameter value 15 would be the most appropriate. This was an expected result since the calibration focused on the 16 entire regional network rather than select routes. The validation procedure revealed the 17 importance of including background traffic in the simulation model. The results here should lead 18 to further enhancements made toward effectively calibrating and validating traffic models for 19 evacuation analysis. 20},

Social interactions are classified into three types: namely, endogenous, exogenous and correlated effects. It is empirically confirmed that endogenous social effects have significant influences on tourism participation behavior. For example, it is found that interactions with people of the same income groups (an example of endogenous social effects) are generally significant across most months of the year. However, it is worth noting that endogenous social effects will be overestimated if the correlated social effect is not taken into account. The results suggest that social multiplier effects can be discerned that have potential implications for promotion and management of tourism participation rates.},

abstract = {This paper presents a new optimization model for addressing the problem of planning pavement maintenance, rehabilitation, and reconstruction (MRR) for a large-scale road network. In the past, this problem has usually been formulated as a linear programming or integer programming model. The solutions obtained from those models determine the timing, location, and type of treatment needed to perform the MRR operation for a given planning horizon. A shortcoming of such models is that the sections selected for MRR are usually distributed spatially across the network, and this distribution makes it difficult to plan and implement MRR activities in a coordinated manner. To take advantage of economies of scale, adjacent road sections with similar MRR needs should be maintained within a single project. However, the idea of automatically combining adjacent sections into one large project has not been given serious attention in existing optimization models for pavement MRR planning. This paper proposes a new approach to pavement MRR planning that utilizes the spatial structure of the road network. The road network is first partitioned into groups of adjacent sections, or MRR projects, with similar MRR needs. Then a knapsack problem is solved to optimally allocate resources to selected MRR projects with the objective of maximizing system performance.},

Using a Q-sorting technique and cluster analysis, preliminary research identified five perspectives occurring in a small sample of rail passengers who varied in their frequency and location of rail travel as well as certain sociodemographic characteristics. Revealed perspectives (named to capture the gist of their content) included "Rail travel is about the destination, not the journey"; "Despite challenges, public transport is still the best option"; "Rail travel is fine"; "Rail travel? So far, so good"; and "Bad taste for rail travel." This paper discusses each of the perspectives in detail and considers them in relation to tailored policy implications. An overarching finding from this study is that improving railway travel access requires attention to physical, psychological, financial, and social facets of accessibility. For example, designing waiting areas to be more socially functional and comfortable has the potential to increase ridership by addressing social forms of access, decreasing perceived wait times, and making time at the station feel like time well spent. Even at this preliminary stage, the Q-sorting technique promises to provide a valuable, holistic, albeit fine-grained, analysis of passenger attitudes and experiences that will assist industry efforts in increasing ridership.},

However, a significant part of the report is stored in unstructured textual format. In the existing literature, there is only a handful of studies on extracting useful information from the crash report. In this research, we developed a verb-based text mining method. This method identifies and extracts the main verbs representing the vehicle actions in a sentence. Using those verbs, we are able to extract the sequence of events of the crash accident. The vehicle action entities are identified through using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to identify both syntactic and semantic units in the text. The developed verb-based approach can effectively handle complex sentence structures such as clauses and conjunctive sentences. In the case study, we evaluated the proposed method using a total of 945 accidents records published by Missouri State Highway Patrol during the period from May 19, 2012 to June 27, 2012. The obtained results show that the extracted information is useful not only to crash classifications but also to help understand the causes of crashes.},

To evaluate the effectiveness of the overall strategy, 15 typical drivers were recruited to attend the speed guidance experiments using multi-vehicle driving simulators.

Then, a P{\&}R facility location method is 6 developed to search for the optimal P{\&}R facility site. And a simulation corridor network is used to compare 7 the performance of the proposed integrated strategy with the normal operation and the conventional P{\&}R 8 strategies, in four scenarios and with five groups of assumptions. The simulation results and measure of 9 effectiveness (MOE) analysis indicate the benefits and applicability of the proposed integrated strategy.},

abstract = {Determining an appropriate delivery method for highway projects is a complex process. This paper presents a decision support approach to assist highway agencies in evaluating and selecting the most suitable delivery method for their projects. The approach uses a matrix to consider three fundamental delivery methods currently in use by the highway industry: design-bid-build, design-build, and construction manager-general contractor. The approach, which is in use by the Colorado Department of Transportation (DOT), includes four primary selection factors (delivery schedule, complexity and innovation, level of design, and initial project risk assessment) and four secondary selection factors (cost, staff experience and availability, level of oversight and control, and competition and contractor experience) in the delivery decision. These eight selection factors, along with opportunities and challenges for each delivery method, were identified through a literature search and were tested by discussions and workshops with innovative contracting leaders from the Colorado DOT, FHWA, the American Council of Engineering Companies, Associated General Contractors of America, and the University of Colorado. The approach enables an initial risk assessment to occur early in the project development process and before the project delivery decision. The project delivery selection matrix promotes a better understanding of project goals, risks, and opportunities and enhances alignment among project participants. The approach has been successfully tested and implemented through eight projects of varying scope throughout Colorado. This paper presents the project delivery selection matrix along with an illustrative case study to demonstrate the results. The research provides a defensible and repeatable process for highway agencies to select an appropriate delivery method for their projects.},

There is also rich literature on evaluation of the freeway service patrols, most of which focused on evaluating the travel time and the derived capital savings due to the reduction of incidents clearance time. However, although the non-recurrent travel delay is a major concern in metro areas, the primary goal of FSP in many other low-traffic areas is to assist stalled vehicles effectively and reliability with certain resource constraints. Few evaluations in the past were conducted from the operational perspective, such as the FSP crew's responding reliability, fuel consumption, vehicle mileage or fleet maintenance cost in various scenarios. Using a discrete-event simulation method, this paper presents an operational evaluation framework for of the FSP in low-traffic areas. Lastly, as an illustration, the reliability of SAFE Patrol program in Kentucky, which only serves rural areas in Kentucky, was evaluated and estimated under various scenarios.},

The model can be applied to developing a practical guideline for 41 determining when the signals in an arterial should be coordinated. The main assumption of the 42 model is that the probability of making a stop is a function of the effective green to the cycle 43 length ratio which also relates to the traffic volume and capacity. Various sources made 44 recommendations in terms of the traffic volume, platoon dispersion, and signal spacing, 45 concerning when a coordination plan should be implemented. However, none of them considered 46 the number of stops as a factor. We propose a stop-based guideline using the probabilistic model, 47 stating that an arterial should be coordinated if the number of stops exceeds 50{\%}. An arterial 48 does not need to be coordinated when the number of stops falls below 20{\%}, and engineering 49 judgment should apply between these two thresholds. A case study using a VISSIM simulation 50 was conducted to validate the probabilistic model and the proposed guideline in order to test its 51 practicality. The results confirmed that the probabilistic model is highly reliable in estimating the 52 number of stops, thus the developed guideline proved to be practical in considering both the 53 main street and side street performances.},

The system gives advisories, which are determined at a traffic management centre based on the traffic state, in order to prevent or solve suboptimal traffic flow conditions. The current system aims at an optimal lane distribution in high flow conditions and a reduction of the capacity drop by advising drivers to maintain a short (but safe) headway at the end of congestion. The system is implemented in microscopic simulation to evaluate the potential benefits for different penetration and compliance rates. Benefits at both low and high rates are found as only a small redistribution of traffic over the lanes may be required to stabilize flow. The capacity drop is effectively reduced at high rates only as it is required that many vehicles accelerate more. The maximum benefit found is a reduction of 48{\%} in travel time delay. Effects are smaller at lower rates. A negative side effect which is found is that increasing flow on the right lane may increase the impact of spillback from an off ramp. Several options are proposed to reduce or circumvent this},

abstract = {The application of uncertainty analysis requires appropriate statistics that capture the degree of uncertainty in model forecasts. The prediction of activity-based models of travel demand relates to (a) aggregate performance indicators, (b) origin-destination tables and corresponding traffic flows, (c) individual space-time trajectories, and (d) the sequence of activities that are conducted during the day. Because measures to quantify uncertainty in the sequence of activities have not been developed yet, the aim of this paper is to propose a method to measure model uncertainty in predicted activity travel sequences. The proposed method involves generating predicted activity travel patterns for a set of model runs and quantifying the uncertainty in the sequential information embedded in these patterns by calculating the average effort across all possible pairs of predicted sequences to align these multidimensional sequences. The effort is quantified in a multidimensional extension of the Levenshtein distance. Because computational costs may become prohibitive in large-scale applications of this method, several heuristic approaches are suggested and examined. Results indicate that the suggested heuristics (a) can represent uncertainty in predicted activity travel sequences quite well, (b) tend to approximate the calculated uncertainty on the basis of all possible sequences, and (c) do not however necessarily produce asymptotically more accurate results. Implications of these findings are discussed.},

This paper analyzes the influence of several site characteristics on the operational and safety effects on bicyclists and motorists at two curbed roadway segments in Florida. Three main site variables were studied: lateral separation between vehicles and bicyclists, vehicle encroachments to the adjacent inside lane, and distance from face of curb that bicyclists track. Results suggest that installation of sharrows can increase the lateral vehicle clearance significantly. It was also observed that less restrictive lane changing conditions greatly increase the lateral separation between vehicles and bicyclists. Also, the percentage of vehicles that passed along side bicyclists with little to no encroachment was notably reduced after sharrows were placed, suggesting positive safety effects for bicyclists. Overall, operational effects for bicyclists and motor vehicles were positive with the implementation of sharrows.},

The algorithm utilizes the traditional 4 correction method to add addition impedance to each route by route pair combination with improved 5 correction algorithm. For each route pair, a binary logit model with the concept of Logit Equivalent 6 Impedance is utilized to calculate the route impedance correction, which is derived from two 7 assumptions: (1) the route choice probabilities are independent of the overlapping part so that IIA 8 property can be alleviated; and (2) the variances of route impedances are proportional to route 9 impedances to resolve the homoscedasticity issue. The closed-form structure and easy computation of 10 original MNL model remain unchanged. Numerical examples show that the proposed approach 11 produces more reasonable results than traditional models with same complexity of computation, and 12 is more stable when the number of routes in reasonable route choice set changes. 13 14},

In order to develop the integrated approach, 6 focusing on stages of vehicle usage and vehicle ownership, this study proposes a Copula-7 based Multivariate Survival (CMS) model of holding duration and annual travelling distance. 8 A Paired Combination Logit (PCL) is applied in order to model the vehicle type choice, and 9 then the estimated PCL model is further incorporated into the CMS model. An empirical 10 analysis was carried out by using a data set collected in the Chugoku region of Japan, 2006. 11 Model estimation results empirically confirmed the effectiveness of the suggested approach. 12 The estimation results also showed that the vehicle holding duration has the negative 13 correlations with expected utilities of vehicle type choice and with vehicle usage. Through 14 the simulation analysis about vehicle-related taxes, it was clarified that to increase fuel tax is 15 the most effective in to reducing the CO 2 emissions, followed by auto tax and weight tax at 16 the vehicle inspection.},

Existing methods for liner shipping network design mainly deal with port-to-port demand. However, most of the demand has inland origins and/or destinations. Thus, it is necessary to cope with inland origin-destination (OD) pairs involving a change in transport mode from inland transportation to maritime shipping. A method is first proposed to convert inland OD demand to port-to-port demand. Then, a framework for global intermodal liner shipping network design is proposed. Finally, the proposed methodology is applied to and numerically verified by a large-scale network example. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Travel time estimation has been a high interest topic in traffic operation and management for years. Travel time information is more useful to the user than other parameters such as speed, flow, density, headway etc. However, travel time being spatial in nature, requires a spatial sensor for its measurement. The spatial sensors available for such a data collection include GPS, AVI, mobile phones, Bluetooth, etc. These can measure the travel time directly; however techniques like GPS and AVI require participation of the user for data collection, which is difficult especially in private vehicles. Use of mobile phones is another possibility, which has lesser location accuracy since it uses triangulation to find the location of vehicles. Bluetooth, Zigbee, and wifi sensors are other possibilities and are reported as possible source of travel time data from western countries. They have the advantage of no participation requirement and reasonably good location accuracy. However, the disadvantage is that they can capture only a small percentage of the entire traffic stream. The present study explores Bluetooth sensor as a traffic data source under Indian conditions. The first part of the study checks the penetration rate of Bluetooth to check the possibility of using it as a traffic data source under Indian conditions. The second part of the study analysed and identified the type of vehicles being represented by Bluetooth. This is important under Indian conditions, where several different types of vehicles are sharing the same roadway. And the last part of the study presents the stream travel time estimation from these selected classes of vehicles being represented by Bluetooth data. This involved the use of a weighted linear regression model. The results of modeling are promising and show potential for real time ITS applications.},

We use travel distance of 53 violators before intercepted and innocent public traveler flow encountered by violators to define the 54 expected benefit by setting interceptors along a specific route. Two reliability-related characteristics 55 are also integrated into the planning model to make it more practical. One is each interceptor (maybe a 56 sensor, a checkpoint or something else) have a failure probability. Different failure scenarios may 57 incur different layout decision of interceptors and investigation of failure can lead to a more reliable 58 solution. The other is there is a " game " between interceptor planner and violators. We assume violators 59 will adjust their route choices according to the interceptor layout decided by planner. Logit choice 60 model is used to account for the route adjustment conducted by violators. Consequently, a non-linear 61 non-convex binary integer programming model is presented. We develop a Simulated Annealing (SA) 62 algorithm to solve it. A set of numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the computational 63 efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

Two regulatory scenarios are defined as well as a cost model for liner services. The paper assesses the cost implications as of the year 2018 of sulfur and CO2 policies for a typical North Europe-Asia service and two feeder lines in North Europe articulated with this transcontinental service through transshipments. The results are examined through a comparative evaluation of the impacts of these policies on deep-sea shipping and feedering (short sea shipping dedicated to transportation on feeder ships), depending on the options of compliance to the low-sulfur fuel requirements. A discussion on the possible strategies of reorganization of the container maritime networks to deal with these environmental extra costs leads to the conclusion that avoiding SECAs and CO2 scope for transcontinental routes and extending the feeder routes to capitalize on the savings from scrubbing in SECAs might rarely prove cost-effective.},

Furthermore, the fast delivery of such items can often become 3 stalled by the transition between the external and internal supply chains, leading to duplicate ordering. These issues 4 result in increased volumes of hospital-related traffic and a delay in the delivery of care to patients. 5 An unattended electronic locker bank, comprising individual lockable boxes to which different urgent items 6 can be delivered is proposed as a potential solution with the aims of: separating urgent and non-urgent goods in the 7 chain, thereby enabling consolidation of non-urgent consignments; and, bypassing the traditional route of supply. 8 The feasibility of this concept was tested in the context of Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in 9 London using a database of consignment movements to assess physical requirements of the locker bank, using a hill 10 climbing optimization technique; and, qualitatively using interviews with key members of staff. 11 Results of the quantitative analysis indicated that a locker bank measuring 3.33m (10.93ft.) in length, 1.7m 12 (5.58ft.) height and 0.8m (2.62ft.) depth, comprising of 11 partitions would be required to accommodate 100{\%} of all 13 urgent consignments passing into the hospital during a typical week.

abstract = {The primary objective of this study was to identify the potential of using conflict prediction models to predict the frequency of traffic conflicts at signalized intersections. The opposing left-turn conflicts were selected for the development of conflict prediction models. Using data collected at thirty approaches at twenty signalized intersections where the permitted left-turn phases were used, the underlying distributions of the conflict frequency for different volume regimes in different time intervals were examined. It was found that the conflict frequency generally followed a negative binominal distribution. Different conflict prediction models were developed, including a linear regression model, an overall negative binomial model, and separate models developed for four traffic scenarios which were defined based on the volume to capacity ratio of the conflicting traffic flows. The prediction performance of different models was compared. It was found that the linear regression model was not appropriate for modeling the conflict frequency data. In addition, drivers behaved differently under different traffic conditions. Thus, the effects of conflicting traffic volumes on conflict frequency were different in different traffic conditions. The generalized linear regression models developed for different traffic scenarios provided the best estimates for the field measured conflicts.},

abstract = {Income is recognised as a key variable influencing consumer behaviour, most notably in terms of a strong link with cost sensitivity. This is sup-ported by a large body of empirical evidence using choice modelling tech-niques. Unfortunately, income information as available in most datasets used for modelling is affected by a number of issues; (1) it is measured as a categorical rather than as a continuous variable, (2) many respondents fail to provide income information, (3) the reported income is potentially correlated with other unobserved factors, and (4) there is scope for delib-erate under or overstating of income by respondents. In the present paper, we propose to deal with these issues by replacing reported income with a latent income variable in the choice models, which at the same time is also used to explain the stated income in a measurement model. The proposed structure has a number of theoretical advantages. In comparison with using stated income, we should deal with some of the measurement error and bias issues. In comparison with using imputation of missing values, our model draws not just on data on stated income for those re-spondents without missing information, but the simultaneous estimation with the choice model means that the observed choices also inform the la-tent income variable. Two empirical applications using stated and revealed preference data illustrate the good performance of the method in practice.},

It is unavoidable that evacuation flow and rescue flow will conflict with each other on the same spatial road network and within the same time window. Therefore, we propose a novel generalized minimum cost flow model to optimize the distribution pattern of these two types of flow on the same network by introducing the conflict cost. The travel time on each link is assumed to be subject to a bureau of public road (BPR) function rather than a fixed cost. Additionally, we integrate contraflow operations into this model to redesign the network shared by those two types of flow. A nonconvex mixed-integer nonlinear programming model with bilinear, fractional, and power components is constructed, and GAMS/BARON is used to solve this programming model. A case study is conducted in the downtown area of Harbin city in China to verify the efficiency of proposed model, and several helpful findings and managerial insights are also presented. {\textcopyright} 2014 Jianxun Cui et al.},

These changes have resulted in a long-term change in the 3 percent of bicycle usage in the city areas. The primary objective of this study is to capture the 4 changing trends of bicycle usage in cities of China from a macroscopic perspective and explore 5 the reasons for the change. To achieve the objective, data are collected from 45 cities in 6 different spatial regions of China. The data analysis shows that the percent of bicycle usage in 7 cities of China gradually decreased in the past years with an average rate of 3.02{\%} for 8 conventional bicycles and 1.07{\%} for all bicycles (including conventional and electric bicycles). 9 Larger cities generally have lower levels of bicycle usage. The models are developed to analyze 10 the relationship between bicycle usage and city-level characteristics. The results show that as the 11 population and land area in a city grow and the income level increases, the average trip time 12 becomes longer and more travelers choose to use motorized trip modes, which consequently 13 reduce the bicycle mode share in the city area.

The traditional method of platform design does not consider this change of waiting 5 behavior after the introduction of PSD, and the result has a large gap with the actual demand, 6 which increases the safety risk in the subsequent operation and management. 7 Due to the installation of PSD, this paper proposed a new calculation method of island 8 platform width based on the behavior of passengers. Firstly, this paper analyzed the behavior 9 change after the installation of PSD, and then by means of video identification and field 10 observations, proposed the transformation process and size calculation method of main 11 functional areas, including waiting area and circulating area during the whole process 12 composed of waiting, alighting and boarding, and dissipating. Subsequently, based on the 13 objective of safely waiting and smoothly circulating, and the premise of different functional 14 areas independent and not overlapping, this paper put forward with the calculation method of 15 platform width, which is closely related to the length of waiting area and the width of 16 circulating area. Finally, this paper compared the calculation result with the one of traditional 17 method, clarified the shortcomings of traditional method, and further illustrated the new 18 method is tailored to suit the behavior characteristics of passengers, which was in keeping 19 with platform operational feature of China and provides guidance for platform design. 20 21 22 23 24 Keyword: island platform, platform screen door, platform width, waiting behavior, waiting 25 area, circulating area 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {The Highway Performance Monitoring System and the reporting of vehicle miles traveled (VMT) on different levels of roadways are critical parts of the U.S. national transportation data program. Although the amount of travel on higher-level roads can often be reliably estimated from traffic counts and other data sources, existing heuristic methods for estimating lower-level and local road VMT suffer from the lack of ground truth data. This paper reports the development of a novel method for estimating local road VMT on the basis of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and other supplemental data sources and investigates the associated statistical issues. The proposed method is applicable at the national, state, and local levels and is demonstrated in a case study in Maryland. The size and duration of the GPS survey sample required for reliable VMT estimation were also analyzed. The case study and statistical analysis showed that a 30-day GPS survey would reduce the required sample size by approximately 50{\%} to 60{\%} as compared with a single-day survey and that a 15-day GPS survey with 670 participating drivers could provide local road VMT estimates with a 5{\%} margin of error at the 95{\%} confidence level. Survey designers can either reduce sample size by lengthening the duration of surveys or recruit more participants for a shorter survey. These findings suggest GPS-based surveys are feasible and cost-effective options for VMT estimation on different levels of roadways, including local roads. Federal, state, and local agencies may use GPS surveys already planned for other purposes (e.g., travel demand modeling and planning applications) for VMT estimation.},

Megacities are suffering from severe transport-relevant problems, such as, 3 accidents, congestion, green space encroaching, air pollution and social inequity. The 4 development of regional comprehensive transportation system is influencing land use 5 intensity, housing and employment distribution. It is becoming increasingly urgent for 6 Chinese cities to develop efficient and sustainable transportation systems within next 7 decades by learning from the metropolitan planning practices in advanced economy. 8 Aiming at sustainable development, this study investigates the latest comprehensive 9 transportation plans' visions and goals of 35 international metropolitan areas, and 10 compared them with four Chinese megacities. We recommend improvement for 11 Chinese cities to follow, including traffic safety, environment protection, congestion 12 management and operation optimization. 13 14},

This paper (1) puts forward the main relationships that are 6 needed to deal with in CFI model, then (2) builds a detailed model for optimization of 7 phase sequence scheme, length of cycle, durations of each phase, and offsets between 8 successive signals. (3) Comparison of the computing results of minimum cycle, 9 capacity and average delay of CFI with conventional intersection. The results show 10 that CFI has a clear advantage and this model has a wide range of application. The 11 proposed model and algorithm also have the following two features: (1) location of 12 the sub intersection as a design parameter need not be inputted but is affected by 13 offset and queue length, (2) solving process and algorithms of all critical features such 14 as average delay are provided. Because of simplified solving process, the computation 15 is not enormous with the help of a simple procedure running on PC, so this model is 16 easy for application.},

It is very common in the literature that high collision rates do exist among young drivers during their first few months of driving. Although, several studies have addressed this phenomenon on short-term time periods, no research presented long-term trends in middle-east countries. In this paper, traffic collisions occurred in Abu Dhabi from year 2007 to 2011 were analyzed. The number of collisions and rates of drivers-at-fault per 10,000 licensed drivers with up to 20 years driving experience were assessed. Rates of different groups by year, age, nationality, gender, education level, and job class were also evaluated to examine whether or not rates are biased to a certain group of drivers. Results for all groups indicated a very consistent reduction of the rates of drivers-at-fault over time as drivers gained more experience. This reduction is much steeper during the first few years of driving showing the great impact of experience on the probability of collisions for novice drivers. Moreover, modeling attempts resulted in a good relationship between years of driving experience and yearly rates of drivers-at-fault. Results also showed that the application of training programs in Abu Dhabi since 2004 is coupled with an improvement in the safety performance. With the control of the number of years of experience, collision rates among drivers who attended the training courses were found lower than those rates among other drivers.

Quantifying user awareness and understanding the probability of behavioral response to 5 changes is valuable input for road operators and traffic engineers designing traffic management 6 measures. This paper presents the results of a field study on user awareness at signalized 7 intersections. The study focused on the ability of drivers to observe and rightly value differences in 8 the timing of traffic lights. Measurements of actual waiting times were compared with perceived 9 waiting times derived from interviews. Results show that drivers' perception of waiting time was on 10 average fairly accurate, but widely variable, and that waiting times were systematically 11 underestimated. Remarkably, the classification of deviations from the average waiting time showed 12 that the vast majority of the respondents considered their waiting time 'normal' or shorter than they 13 were used to. Although in terms of representativeness, field studies are believed to be of great 14 importance to perception studies, the selected approach for this study did not provide the expected 15 data. Therefore it was not possible to provide definite answers related to user awareness at 16 signalized intersections.

The objective of this research is to develop a model for estimating travel time for signalized arterials using probabilistic modeling. The model provides travel time based on the cycle length, green times, link lengths, maximum operating speed, offsets, acceleration/deceleration rate, and the per lane entering flow rate at each intersection. Results from the model were compared to a field data-calibrated simulator, and it was concluded that travel times from the simulation and the analytical model are similar and have similar trends. Increases in the g/C ratio and the acceleration/deceleration rate result in decreasing travel time. The impacts of other factors, such as link length, speed, and flow rate are not consistent: they mostly depend on the prevailing offsets. It was concluded that the analytical model can estimate the arterial travel time and its variability with reasonable accuracy.},

abstract = {1 Although travel time is probably one of the most important attributes in route choice, the shortest 2 time route is often not the preferred route according to several studies in the literature. This study 3 tries to explain this finding by testing the hypotheses that choice makers may be able to estimate 4 travel times correctly for routes they prefer, but that they are biased against alternatives even if 5 these are faster. For a few choice sets of routes in the Dutch city of Enschede, respondents were 6 asked to choose a route and provide their estimated travel times for both the preferred and 7 alternative routes. These travel times were then compared with actual travel times from a license 8 plate study. The comparison confirmed the hypotheses. For chosen routes, perceived travel times 9 correspond quite well with actual travel times on average, while for non-chosen routes, perceived 10 travel times are overestimated by 3 – 4 minutes on average. These results show that drivers are not 11 able or do not want to evaluate routes objectively. This implies that within an indifference band of 12 route delay and/or travel time inequality of on average 3 – 4 minutes, drivers are probably not willing 13 to alter their route choice, even if the traffic situation induced for example by traffic management 14 measures, changes in a negative way for their preferred route. 15 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In this paper we model the impacts of competition between cities when considering demand management strategies on both the optimal tolls and business and residential location choices. The work builds on earlier work which studied competition in a small network using a static equilibrium approach. That work showed that while both cities have an incentive to charge alone, once they begin, they are likely to fall into a Nash trap or prisoner's dilemma where both cities are worse off. Our research extends this by setting up a system dynamics model which includes all modes and longer term location responses. The model is used first to study an isolated city and a simplified welfare function is used to determine the optimal toll around the central area and its impacts on location decisions and other transport indicators. A twin city is then added. Traffic from the neighbouring city may be charged and the revenue retained - a form of tax exporting behaviour which should increase the welfare of the city. We study the impact on the optimal tolls set by the cities and how the game develops between cities of equal size and amenity. The impact on location decisions and other transport indicators are presented along-side the implications for regulation and the development of cities within regional partnerships. },

abstract = {1 The study of dynamics in activity and travel behavior is not a new research interest in 2 transportation field. There are a few arenas in the dynamics which have been partially covered, 3 yet some remain rather unexplored. Short term dynamics of activity and travel behavior are 4 better understood than long term changes in the contemporary research. For instance, intra-5 household decision making, day-to-day dynamics of activity-travel generation and scheduling, 6 out-of-home or in-home activity organization have been addressed by a number of studies. 7 However, one can rarely find studies on the dynamics of time allocation in activities and travel 8 related to life cycle events. This study contributes to the understanding of such long term 9 dynamics. Using path analysis it shows the effect of several life cycle events on the changes in 10 time allocation in activities and associated travel. Data were collected in the Netherlands in 11 September 2011 using an event-based questionnaire survey, where the respondents were asked 12 to report a weekly activity and travel schedule before and after the event. Results also show the 13 interdependencies between the types of activity and travel. We conclude that life cycle events 14 have significant impact on changes in time allocation for activities and travel. The effects are 15 varied in direction, intensity and existence according to the type of event and the type of 16 activity. The findings contribute to the specification of dynamics in activity-travel time 17 allocation and predicting the rapid and far reaching changes in addition to the day-to-day 18 dynamics.},

Aerial ropeway transit (ART), a promising transport technology solution, could be an important component of this system. This paper presents the results of a technical and economic feasibility study to explore the potential of introducing ART service in Makkah. The study reveals that, overall, ART service on some corridors in Makkah is technically feasible, and with some necessary enforcement measures to attract ridership could become a profitable transportation investment. Specifically, the study recommends using ART for special user groups and service/emergency crews during peak seasons and opening ART to the public as a premium service during the off-peak season.},

Better plans, transparent process, and public support are some of the benefits that road managers can obtain by educating and involving the general public. During the last two decades the volume of research performed related to the topic of customer-driven highway maintenance suggests an increasing level of interest in the field. Most research concentrates on gathering information from road users to assess the performance level of highways. However, public opinion can also be collected for measuring the quality of the service delivered by maintenance units. Assessing product and service delivery performance is important for determining the overall performance of highway maintenance programs. The present study examines the relationship between road users' overall perceptions of the quality of highway maintenance services and the variables that define the highway maintenance service quality domain. The results of the study indicate that two service dimensions, Safety and Reliability, explain about half of the variance in overall perceptions of highway maintenance service quality. The procedures developed for the study provide an initial step for further improvement of the highway maintenance perceived service quality measurement.

A two-stage hierarchical structural model was proposed to analyze determinants of the acceptability. A questionnaire survey was conducted face to face and 897 samples of car users were collected. The results indicate that in line with European research results, acceptability besides being determined by perceived fairness and freedom is rather a function of personal norm. A new finding is that perceived behavior control has a positive association with acceptability. The study suggests that when implementing congestion pricing, it is important to develop alternative modes and to guarantee people to feel to be treated just in comparison to others. Policy makers may draw on these results to increase the acceptability of congestion pricing.},

Parking management, which makes the link between land use and transportation, is one of the crucial ways to meet these challenges. In the Greater Montreal Area, data from origin-destination (OD) surveys is helpful in understanding typical travel behaviour. This study processes car driver trips from travel surveys to develop vehicle accumulation profiles and derive theoretical parking supplies from the observed parking demand, defined as the maximal number of cars parked in an area at a given time. This research also provides an assessment of the quality of the estimation by comparing the parking supplies derived from an OD survey to parking supplies estimated from public geographical information systems and field surveys. The paper shows that parking supply is subject to high variability and highlights that its assessment must take into account regulation data (obtained from on-street regulation parking signs data) that modulates the availability of the raw parking supply according to different days and hours of the day.},

As a result, running a traffic micro-simulation model several times with the same inputs will obtain different outputs. In order to take the variation of outputs in each model run into account, a common approach is to run the model multiple times and to use the average value of the results. The question then becomes: what is the minimum number of model runs required to reach a stable result (i.e., with a certain level of confidence that the obtained average value can only vary within an acceptable interval). In this study, systematic experiments are carried out by using the {\{}FEATHERS{\}} framework, an agent-based micro-simulation model particularly developed for Flanders, Belgium. Six levels of geographic detail are taken into account, which are Building block level, Subzone level, Zone level, Superzone level, Province level, and the whole Flanders. Three travel indices, i.e., the average daily number of trips per person, the average daily distance travelled per person, and the average daily number of activities per person, as well as their corresponding segmentations, are estimated by running the model 100 times. The results show that the more detailed geographical level is considered, the larger the number of model runs is needed to ensure confidence of a certain percentile of zones at this level to be stable. In addition, based on the time-dependent origin-destination table derived from the model output, traffic assignment is performed by loading it onto the Flemish road network, and the total vehicle kilometres travelled in the whole Flanders are computed subsequently. The stable results at the Flanders level provides model users with confidence that application of the {\{}FEATHERS{\}} at an$\backslash$naggregated level only requires limited model runs.},

This paper adds to the available evaluation literature and relies on a combination of expert opinions and simple models rather than on data-intensive, four-stage transportation models. The approach consists of five steps and yields an assessment of the cost-effectiveness of the measure that is being evaluated. As an illustration of this approach, the cost-effectiveness of a pricing measure within a large Dutch travel demand management program was determined to illustrate the approach itself and the plausibility of its results. It was concluded that the proposed method was suitable for an initial quick-scan assessment. This assessment would be valuable in the first selection of packages of measures and could support policy makers who must decide in which measures to invest, even when those measures have not yet been described or designed at a highly detailed level.},

ABSTRACT 1 Rail transit train dwell time, which is one of the crucial factors of train delay, is affected by 2 variance of passenger flow in different stations. Train dwell delay and passenger flow variation is 3 affected by each other. Long train dwell delay in station may cause passenger delay and 4 propagation over the whole line, it needs to take a long time to restore from disturbances. A train 5 dwell delay model, which has considered the process and the variant number of waiting, alighting 6 and boarding passengers is proposed in this paper. By using the time-driven simulation, the 7 influences of train and passenger delay are calculated. Finally numerical examples and 8 computational results are presented. The results reveal that passenger flow variation and train 9 delay are two mutual influence processes. The increase of passenger flow may extend train dwell 10 time and affect train delay in the line.

A transportation revenue approach being 4 considered by State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) involves the collection of tolls on 5 existing interstate highways on which tolls are not presently collected; however, there are 6 challenges associated with estimating demand changes on these roadways. 7 Central to this paper is a case study that focuses on the formulation and preliminary 8 evaluation of a toll based revenue approach potentially suitable for consideration along a 9 segment of Interstate 93 in Boston where tolls are not currently charged. The literature and 10 previous work show that elasticity based methods have been used and are an appropriate first 11 step for estimating transportation demand changes. In this case study, the evaluation includes 12 two different analysis approaches of the expected change in demand: one that takes into account 13 the cost of congestion and one that does not. 14 The results in this paper will guide transportation planners and analysts interested in 15 estimating expected demand changes due to the placement of tolls on interstates not currently 16 tolled. Moreover, these results will enhance our knowledge base concerning the analytical 17 challenges associated with estimating demand changes on roadways that are not currently tolled. 18 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

But while the importance of enabling high-functioning places despite congestion is becoming 4 increasingly apparent, existing research provides little guidance. Links are comparatively clearer between 5 capacity building or travel demand management and economic growth, system efficiency outcomes, and 6 individual welfare improvements. But common capacity building and demand management policies have 7 been and unsuccessful at alleviating congestion. Researchers broadly agree that congestion pricing is a 8 necessary precondition for significant congestion alleviation, but pricing remains politically unpalatable. 9 The outlook for transportation policy to meaningfully reduce congestion is poor in the current political 10 climate, yet it remains unclear how transportation policy can contribute to high-functioning regions 11 despite congestion. To identify " better " regional adaptations to congestion, I explore congestion 12 resilience using a metric of economic growth per unit " cost " of congestion growth. Using case studies of 13 high-congestion MSAs, I explore policies distinguishing congestion resilient Los Angeles and 14 Washington, DC from congestion unresilient Chicago and Houston. Case study results suggest that there 15 appear to be important roles for road policy, public transit policy, and urban spatial structure in 16 distinguishing the congestion resilient from congestion unresilient regions 17 18},

abstract = {This paper presents a new method for improving the on-time arrival reliability of deliveries. A dispatcher wishes to minimize the total expected travel time and determines a set of attractive links before the trip. Drivers choose between them en route on the basis of the traffic conditions that they observe on immediate successor links. Such a set of attractive paths with associated departure time and decision rule collectively offers a better expected travel time than any single path on its own and is referred to as a "scheduled hyperpath." The hyperpath concept was exploited by drawing of a parallel between the wait for randomly arriving public transport services and the wait for available capacity in traffic networks with random delays. Adaptation of those methods to the just-in-time delivery context follows from established assertions that consideration of multiple paths and adaptive path selection in networks with random travel times offers shorter travel times than selection of an a priori path with the least expected travel time. The HyperDOT algorithm presented identifies an optimal scheduled hyperpath sequentially in reverse topological and chronological order by use of the historical distributions of link travel times for discrete time intervals as inputs. Two areas of application are discussed: multiple simultaneous deliveries and repetitive shipments. Although the proposed strategy is advantageous in networks with multiple delays, it may lead to the discarding of routes that remain the shortest even when they are delayed because of the myopic character of information about network conditions.},

abstract = {The price of gas has fluctuated dramatically since 2008 and travelers' response to this has been generally as expected. Relatively little change in behavior to begin, but as prices continued to rise we have seen a shift to vehicles with higher fuel efficiencies and a shift to alternative modes (transit and bike/pedestrian). One thing that has not been examined is potential route shifts, to or from toll facilities. Many toll facilities offer an uncongested and more direct route to a traveler's destination. In theory, as gas prices increase the use of toll facilities would also increase. However, some toll facilities experienced the opposite effect. The cost of gas increased to a point where some travelers refuse to pay any more for their trip, including paying a toll, despite the fact the toll route may offer significant gas savings.This research examined the impact of changing gas prices on travelers' choice of routes, focusing on toll route usage. Travel demand elasticity estimates for toll routes with respect to gas price were inelastic and mostly negative. Additionally, the average elasticity (-0.06) was smaller than those found in the literature for non-toll facilities (average approximately -0.25). This would indicate that either (a) toll facility users were less impacted by changes in gas price, or more likely, (b) some travelers were switching to toll facilities as gas prices rise. Thus, toll facilities were more insulated from downturns in traffic volumes resulting from increases in gas price.},

abstract = {Due to technological innovations the driving task is becoming increasingly complex. Com-plexity of the driving task is however not only determined by an increased amount of information directed at road users, but also by other external conditions (e.g., the road design, weather and interactions with other road users). In this contribution we assume that the complexity of the driving tasks leads to adaptation effects in longitudinal driving behavior, in which we distin-guish between compensation effects and performance effects. However, it was not yet clear how these effects can best be modeled. We argue that current models, such as the Intelligent Driver Model insufficiently incorporate human factors and are therefore less adequate in describing and predicting effects due to changes in the complexity of the driving task. To this end in this contri-bution we introduce a new theoretical framework and as an example implement this framework into the Intelligent Driver Model. Through two case studies using the microscopic simulation software package MOTUS we show that the model performs relatively well and clear shows the effect of a changing balance between the demand of the driving task and the capability of the driver. In this sense we show that an increase and relaxation in the capability of the driver provides a relatively good explanation for the capacity funnel phenomenon. Furthermore we show the effect of the provision of an " optimal " amount of information versus " information overload " on individual driving behavior and traffic flow operations. The contribution finishes with a discussion section as well as recommendations for future research.},

This model also included variables that described the socioeconomic and behavioral characteristics of the respondents and attributes of the intermodal transfer facilities. Results suggest that there is a hierarchical structure among specific aspects of satisfaction and that both transit interchanges attributes and respondent characteristics significantly affect user satisfaction levels.

abstract = {The concept of rescheduling is essential to activity-based modeling in order to calculate effects of both unexpected incidents and adaptation of individuals to traffic demand management measures. When collaboration between individuals is involved or timetable based public transportation modes are chosen, rescheduling becomes complex. This paper describes a new framework to investigate algorithms for rescheduling on a large scale. The framework explicitely models the information flow between traffic information services and travelers. It combines macroscopic traffic assignment with microscopic simulation of agents adapting their schedules. Perception filtering is introduced to allow for traveler specific interpretation of perceived macroscopic data and information going unnoticed; it feeds person specific short term predictions required for schedule adaptation. Individuals are assumed to maximize schedule utility. Initial agendas are created by the FEATHERS activity-based schedule generator for mutually independent individuals using an undisturbed loaded transportation network. The new framework allows both agent behavior and external phenomena to influence the transportation network state; individuals interpret the state changes via perception filtering and start adapting their schedules, again affecting the network via updated traffic demand. The first rescheduler investigated uses marginal utility that monotonically decreases with activity duration and a monotonically converging relaxation algorithm to efficiently determine the new activity timing. The current framework implementation can support re-timing, re-location and activity re-sequencing; re-routing however is the subject of future research.},

This paper first diagnoses the predictability of four different traffic volume datasets using various statistical measures including: (1) complexity analysis methods such as the delay time and embedding dimension method and the approximate entropy method; (2) nonlinearity analysis methods like the time reversibility of surrogate data; and (3) long range dependency analysis techniques like the Hurst Exponent. Following the diagnosis of the datasets, three short term traffic volume prediction models are applied: (1) Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA); (2) k Nearest Neighbor (k-NN); and (3) Support Vector Regression (SVR). The results from the statistical data diagnosis methods are then correlated to the performance results of the three prediction methods on the four datasets in order to arrive at some conclusions regarding how to choose the appropriate prediction method. Among the conclusions of the study in that regard is that SVR is more suitable for nonlinear datasets, while SARIMA and k-NN are more appropriate for linear datasets. The data diagnosis results are also utilized to shed light on how to select the parameters of the different prediction models such as the length of the training data set for SARIMA and SVR, the average number of nearest neighbors for k-NN, and the input vector length for k-NN and SVR.},

However, the majority of the leading micro simulation packages and their calibration 3 methodologies have been developed considering less complex homogeneous traffic. Hence, a methodology for 4 calibrating a micro simulation model for mixed traffic is proposed. Driver behavior in mixed traffic is observed and 5 adjustments were made to represent in the simulation. Calibration parameters were identified using multi parameter 6 sensitivity analysis, and the optimum values for these parameters were obtained by minimizing the error between the 7 simulated and field delay using a genetic algorithm. Multiple criteria were included in the optimization formulation 8 by constraint insertion. The proposed methodology is illustrated using VISSIM, a widely used micro simulation 9 software.

abstract = {In this paper, we introduce a multi-model approach to a large-scale, activity-based, multi-agent 1 travel demand simulation. The Multi-Agent Transport Simulation toolkit, MATSim, is a full 2 activity-based travel demand model, capable of handling very large urban scenarios in the 3 order of millions of commuters. Its greatest current performance limitation is the network 4 loading simulation, currently a queue simulation ('QSim'). In our application, the multi-model 5 system periodically replaces the current QSim for a number of iterations with a simplified 6 pseudo-simulation ('PSim') that runs approximately two orders of magnitude faster. PSim uses 7 information generated in the preceding QSim iteration to produce an estimate of how well an 8 agent day plan might perform, which allows the existing model framework to select and improve 9 plans before executing them in a full queue simulation. 10 We test the technique in an extensive scenario for Zurich, Switzerland, incorporating mode 11 choice, road-pricing, secondary activity location choice, activity timing adjustment and dynamic 12 routing. We find that the technique dramatically improves convergence rates for such complex, 13 large-scale simulations, and fully exploits modern multi-core computer architectures. Its simple 14 operational logic promises easy integration with all existing and upcoming MATSim functional-15 ity, and opens the door to more sophisticated approaches to large-scale, integrated transportation 16 planning.},

abstract = {Data collection for the provision of real time traveller information services is a key issue, both for the travellers as well as for traffic managers. This paper presents a methodology for estimating travel times in dense urban road networks using point-to-point detectors. The aim is to fill in the gap of existing travel time estimation methodologies, which are based on point-to-point detection devices. Bluetooth (BT) is considered as one of the less expensive technologies for estimating travel times. Data filtering and data correction require rigorous methodologies, which if not correctly applied may result in inaccurate results as compared to other methods. The main difficulty of data processing is to identify the correct set of Media Access Control (MAC) addresses for estimating travel times, especially in dense urban road networks, where three main error sources exist: the co-existence of various transport modes (private vehicles, buses, pedestrians, bicycles etc.), the existence of more than one possible paths between two BT detectors and the existence of stops or trips ending between two BT detectors. These error sources create outliers that need to be identified and taken into account. The results of the proposed methodology confirm that outliers are eliminated, as shown by a case study with 10 BT detectors installed at major intersections of Thessaloniki's Central Business District (CBD).},

abstract = {When comparing the energy efficiency of transport modes the different spatial contexts and the resulting trip characteristics must be taken into account in order to bring about realistic and fair results. The objective of this paper is find out the actual amounts of energy consumed and emissions generated per passenger on an annual basis using realistic load factors and mode choice scenarios in these different contexts.. The results show that especially with modern private vehicles the energy efficiency and fuel consumption for autos is competitive with buses in rural areas where buses carry far less people on board than in urban environment. If, however, the amount of private vehicle driving should increase radically, in dense urban areas, due to shifting to the more fuel efficient vehicles, the advantages of the reduction of emissions and fuel consumption on a per vehicle basis will be offset quickly. Furthermore, criticism of people as environmentally irresponsible citizens simply because they drive their automobile or other private vehicle is unwarranted. In rural areas, the bus exists not because it is better environmentally but because it fulfills a social need for mobility for those without autos. People who never drive in their home city may actually have the largest carbon footprint of anyone in their neighborhood if they do a large amount of long distance travel. The findings from this study argue for a more holistic and realistic approach to evaluating energy efficiency of particular lifestyles and for designing policy responses.

abstract = {Increasing concerns about traffic congestion, safety, availability of energy sources, and environmental issues such as pollution and climate change have led to growing interest in sustainable urban transport. Because these challenges have arisen from the rapid growth of motor vehicle ownership and use in urban areas, most of the focus has been on motorcars. In contrast, the role, use, and sustainability impacts of motor scooters and motorcycles-collectively called powered two-wheelers (PTWs)-have received relatively little attention from the transportation profession. Sales of PTWs in Australia have grown rapidly during the past decade, but little is known of their usage patterns. Insights into the trip and vehicle characteristics of PTWs observed in the central business district (CBD) of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, are presented. An extensive patrol survey was undertaken in Melbourne's CBD to gain insight into the role of PTWs as a mode of transport. How a range of transport planning information can be gained by combining data from a large-scale observational survey with other data sets is illustrated. The parking patrol survey provided details of the accumulation and parking durations of PTWs on footpaths and in median parking areas. Combining the observational data with land use, registration, census, and public transport data allowed the development of relationships between trip generation, production, and journey distance. Such information has potential relevance in the context of developing policies related to the provision and pricing of PTW parking facilities as well as managing pedestrian areas in Melbourne's CBD.},

abstract = {Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is often used for evaluating transport investments. They often play an especially important role when many suggested investments need to be ranked against each other, for example in national investment planning. However, they are often questioned based on the claim that the ranking depends crucially on uncertain assumptions about the future, and on methodologically or ethically contestable trade-offs of different types of benefits relative to each other, for example travel time savings, traffic safety and emissions. This paper studies the robustness of CBA rankings with respect to two types of uncertainties: future climate policy and relative benefit valuations, using CBAs of 480 suggested road and rail investments in Sweden that have been shortlisted for possible inclusion in the national transport investment plan. First, the CBA ranking turns out to be surprisingly robust with respect to various assumptions regarding future climate policy. Even rather drastic assumptions, such as a doubled oil price, hardly affect investment ranking at all. Second, the CBA ranking also turns out to be robust to relative valuation of different types of benefits – person travel time savings, traffic safety, emissions and freight benefits. We also compare two sets of travel time valuations against each other, one of which differentiated with respect to mode and travel purpose and one which is not, again concluding that the investment ranking is hardly affected.},

The 3 rapid pace with which TODs are being developed across United States has left policy makers and 4 transportation planners looking for methods aimed at modeling travel characteristics of TODs. 5 Current ITE trip generation models are generally based on consolidated survey data from various 6 landuses and are inadequate in serving the planning needs for travel demand parameters 7 necessary to predict trip generation rates, develop trip distribution tables, identify mode choice 8 characteristics, and determine trip assignment of TODs. 9 The primary foci of this research are to understand the trip making behavior of the TODs 10 and develop a methodology for determining vehicular trip generation rates. Comparative 11 assessment of TOD vis-{\`{a}}-vis non-TODs with respect to trip rates, transit usage, and primary 12 travel mode is performed. A regression model relating TOD trip ends to gross floor area (GFA) 13 is developed and validated. Model behavior is consistent with the industry state-of-practice 14 which will assist transportation practitioners accurately forecast trip generation rate for TODs. 15 Validation of the regression model is performed by checking for normality, multicollinearity and 16 heteroscedasticity of the independent variable. 17 The activity-based survey data used for this research is associated with the Washington 18 D.C.

Real-time queue information is the most vital input for a dynamic queue 4 management on metered on-ramps. Accurate and reliable queue information enables an adaptive 5 management of the ramp queue size and thus minimises the adverse impacts of queue flush while 6 increasing the benefit of ramp metering for the mainline stream. The proposed algorithm is 7 developed based on the Kalman filter framework. The fundamental conservation model is used 8 to estimate the system state (queue size) with the flow-in and flow-out measurements. This 9 projection results are updated with the measurement equation using the time occupancies from 10 mid-link and link-entrance loop detectors. This study also proposes a novel single point 11 correction method. This method resets the estimated system state to eliminate the counting errors 12 that accumulate over time. In the performance evaluation, the proposed algorithm demonstrated 13 accurate and reliable performances and consistently outperformed the benchmarked Single 14 Occupancy Kalman filter (SOKF) method. The improvements over SOKF are 62{\%} and 63{\%} in 15 average in terms of the estimation accuracy (MAE) and reliability (RMSE), respectively.

An understanding of the potential role that these vehicles can play as an urban travel option in the context of sustainable transport is limited. The need for better knowledge about the utilitarian use of this vehicle class is addressed by examining the usage patterns and demographics of riders in Victoria, Australia. The analysis draws on a special survey of PTW users that was conducted in conjunction with a major household travel survey. Because respondents indicated whether their PTWs were motor scooters or motorcycles, the analysis was segmented by PTW type as well as trip purpose and rider demographics (particularly age and gender). Cross-tabulations and hypothesis testing provided insight into important differences across subgroups, and logistic regression models examined the factors that correlated with whether a motor scooter or motorcycle was the most likely PTW to have been used for a particular journey. Rider gender, age, and distance to be ridden were significant explanatory variables. The results provide insight into the use of PTWs for utilitarian travel and the factors that help explain differences in the use patterns of motor scooters and motorcycles.},

One 2 of the key components required for a vibrant state economy involves keeping highway freight 3 moving, to include oversize and overweight (OS/OW) permit loads. The motivation for this 4 research project came from: 5  Insufficient communication between the permit office and district personnel. 6  OS/OW reroutes required due to unanticipated district activities. 7  Damage to fresh pavement seal coats by OS/OW load movements. 8 The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) initiated this research effort to analyze the 9 routes of historically permitted OS/OW loads. The primary objectives of this research included 10 the development of criteria for assigning current and projected OS/OW groups to a designated 11 future road network, identification of impediments to efficient routing for such loads, and the 12 development of optimal and alternate routes for priority load groups between the most common 13 origins and destinations. 14 The availability of more advanced tools and technologies such as Geographic 15 Information Systems (GIS) has considerably increased the opportunities for transportation policy 16 makers to better analyze vehicle routing data. As part of the project, the research team 17 developed a highly efficient GIS mapping approach and converted a massive dataset of OS/OW 18 permit routes into a GIS format. 19 This paper presents findings from the research, using assigned routes (along with 20 associated route restrictions) and vehicle dimensional characteristics to investigate and predict 21 future OS/OW shipment needs. Using non-optimal routes due to the current route restrictions is 22 causing an additional 103,775 miles of travel per year for the largest loads—those wider and 23 taller than 16 ft.

abstract = {Transit-oriented development (TOD) is mainly focused on providing transit service along with high density and mixed-use development to encourage transit ridership. The Maryland Department of Transportation defines TOD as "a place of relatively higher density that includes a mixture of residential, employment, shopping and civic uses and types located within an easy walk of a bus or rail transit center"( Transit-Oriented Development Task Force, Maryland Department of Transportation, 2000). TOD is a fast-growing development strategy and is becoming more popular among city planners, land developers, and government officials for its potential to increase transit ridership and reduce VMT by shortening trips. However, there has not been enough research done on how successful TODs are in providing sustainable transportation modes, which will eventually result in less energy consumption, environmental pollution, and traffic congestion in urban areas. The present study tries to understand how travel behavior is different for TOD residents in the two metropolitan areas of Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. This is done specifically by examining the changes in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in order to analyze the effectiveness of TODs on encouraging driving less and switching to transit, walking, biking, and other sustainable modes of transportation.The question of "can transit-oriented development (TOD) reduce vehicle miles of travel?" has been asked frequently, since TODswerefirst proposed and implemented in urban areas. This paper tries to find a viable answer to this question by analyzing the VMT of Washington, D.C. and Baltimore residents. Our results indicate that people living in TOD areas tend to drive less, reducing theirVMT by around 38{\%} in Washington, D.C. and 21{\%} in Baltimore, compared to the residents of the non-TOD areas even with similar land use patterns. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {With the dramatic increase of traffic volume, traffic congestion has become a topic of considerable interest in the United States. Especially. congestion has resulted in enormous economic and environmental losses, and Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) is found to be one of the effective solutions in order to relief congestion in urbanized areas. This study aims to advance the body of knowledge on the sustainability impacts, represented in a Triple Bottom Line (TBL) evaluation, of congestion relief in Florida. Thus, instead of considering only direct economic benefits of projects as done in traditional projects, thi s study can fill the gap about analyzing sustainability impacts for decision makers from a holistic perspective. A critical approach of this research is to include both direct and indirect environmental, economic, and ecologic impacts associated with the chain of supply paths of ITS. To meet this goal, economic input-output tables, published by Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) are linked to various TBL sustainability indicators to have a better insight into sustainability impact of congestion relief. The analysis results indicate that 1.38 E+05 tons of greenhouse gas emiss ions (t CO2-eqv) and 3.00 E+04 global hectares (gha) of CO2 uptake land were saved in Florida, in 2010. Moreover, annual delay reduction cost savings were 420 million dollars in which the net fuel-based economic savings are founded as 17.2 million dollars.},

This system represents an exponential leap forward in capabilities for state DOTs, MPOs, and researchers in their efforts to report on system performance in terms of speed and ease of access, usability, and overall data availability. This paper demonstrates how states are using the system to justify construction projects, demonstrate the benefits of completed transportation projects, identify areas for improvement, and analyze travel times using a variety of data sources with an emphasis on vehicle probe data. The underlying system includes probe data from as early as 2008 through today that is being used to analyze trends from year-to-year, month-to-month, and day-to-day. The resulting suite of tools provides significant new capabilities to researchers and analysts that will likely fuel additional research.

abstract = {Variable tolling was implemented on the SR-520 Bridge in the Seattle, Washington, region in 2011 as part of a federally funded initiative to reduce traffic congestion. R-520 tolls varied by time of day up to a maximum of {\$}3.50 each way ({\$}5 for nontransponder payments). A nearby parallel facility, Interstate 90, remained a toll-free alternative across Lake Washington. Tolling was accompanied by investments in public transit and traffic management technologies and by efforts to promote telecommuting. A two-stage panel survey approach was used to analyze the impacts of this tolling program on corridor users' daily travel choices. In each survey wave, more than 3,000 respondents from roughly 2,000 households completed a 2-day travel diary, with additional detail on trips in the Lake Washington corridor, plus a personal survey on general travel behavior and attitudes. Key survey findings included a marked decrease in respondents' travel in the corridor after tolling, particularly on SR-520, which experienced a 47{\%} reduction in recorded trips, and significant diversion to I-90. Shifts from SR-520 to I-90 were most pronounced among men, those in lower-income households, and those with less workplace schedule flexibility. There were also increases in transit mode share in the corridor, while carpooling and telecommuting levels were relatively stable. In the posttolling survey, respondents registered an overall increase in satisfaction with their commutes and less stress associated with driving. Reported satisfaction with the speed and reliability of individual trips on SR-520 also increased substantially, and personal attitudes shifted slightly in favor of tolling.},

Even though many network 1 design standards propose shape grammar rules, little is known of the measurable impact of these 2 rules on the performance of transport networks. This paper provides a general definition of 3 shape grammar rules for transport network design. Different rules are evaluated regarding a 4 comprehensive objective function. Networks are designed and simulated on featureless planes 5 to avoid a bias due to history. Findings are compared with real-world case studies. Different 6 network characteristics are evaluated in this paper. 7 The densities of network loops are high in all generated networks, and comparable with 8 real-world grids and medieval fabrics. The average length of network loops decreases as an 9 inverse function of road density, which is in line with graph theory. Intersection density is 10 proportional to the network length. The average number or arms of an intersection depends on 11 road density. A denser network has a disproportionately higher density of 4 arm intersections, 12 compared to less denser networks. 13 Additionally, different road types are assigned to each road segment. Hierarchical road type 14 distribution has a significant but low influence on network user costs. Terrain boundaries, as 15 well as predefined roads (e.g. boulevards) increase average user costs. However, the average 16 increase strongly depends on the number of bridges and on the boulevard capacity. The results 17 show that shape grammar rules for transport network design can be evaluated to increase the 18 understanding of their impacts, which supports future design standards.},

abstract = {Directly comparing the satisfaction of customers of urban bus operators in different cities and countries is methodologically challenging because of the differences in the surveys used, sample frames, response collection methods, and the possibility of cultural bias. Nonetheless, because of the importance of customer satisfaction, the members of the International Bus Benchmarking Group (IBBG) started a research project in 2009 to overcome those challenges. The objective was for bus operators to understand the relative performance in meeting their customers' expectations and to be able to target those areas in which they relatively underperform. Between 2009 and 2012, eight to 10 participating organizations annually posted identical surveys on their website home pages in the same period. This paper describes the survey and data normalization methodology developed in the IBBG that provides managers of these organizations with a comparable view of their customer satisfaction. The described methodology has been successfully tested in the bus industry but can also be applied to other industries for which there is a wish to benchmark customer satisfaction against other national and international peers.},

However, some doubts have risen about the necessity to implement rather sophisticated techniques 3 such as the empirical Bayes method to correct for regression to the mean whereas the use of a sufficient long before-4 period could reach the same objective. Present study examines the existence and the magnitude of the regression to 5 the mean effect in crash data from 169 intersections for the injury crashes and 143 for the more severe crashes in 6 Flanders-Belgium for whom regression to the mean was likely to occur as they were selected based on their crash 7 history. The presence of a RTM-effect was investigated by comparing the crash numbers of this period with the 8 crash numbers in the next three years, during which no traffic safety measure was applied. Two comparison groups 9 were used. The results demonstrate the existence of a substantial regression to the mean effect in the investigated 10 sample of intersections. The magnitude of the regression to the mean effect is estimated to be almost 9{\%} for injury 11 crashes and 37{\%} for the most severe crashes. From this can be concluded the correction for regression to the mean 12 in evaluation studies is highly recommended in cases when locations are selected based on their crash history. This 13 can be applied through the Empirical Bayes method.},

Visually comparing the changes in these hierarchical datasets over time can be extremely difficult, even when the trees are relatively small. TreeVersity is a novel interactive visualization that allows users to detect and analyze changes in the structure and value of various components of the tree. TreeVersity uses dual comparison techniques (side-by-side and explicit differences) coupled with a tabular representation to help users understand and explore changes to the tree over time. It uses carefully selected color palettes to show positive/negative, absolute and relative value changes; and glyphs that preattentively show these changes. This paper illustrates the value of this visualization technique through various short case studies using Federal transportation budget data, airline maintenance budget data and transportation publication data. Also it hypothesizes about TreeVersity's relevance for future congestion trend analysis.

Recently, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) initiated a research project to review the state-of-the-practice in utility investigations and develop best practices for timing and use of utility investigation services in the TxDOT project development process. As part of the project, the research team conducted a thorough evaluation of the potential benefits of SUE services (focusing on QL A and B) in transportation projects. During the evaluation, the research team identified 32 projects that used SUE services, which represented a variety of project classes and geographic locations. The researchers then took a significant effort to mine existing TxDOT data sources and collected a wide range of project data from a number of data systems. Based on several measures of effectiveness and using t-test statistics, the study compared SUE projects against a large group of control projects. The results suggested that SUE services tended to be used for large projects with significant design efforts and complicated utility conditions. When comparing on a per- lane-mile basis, projects with SUE had lower design costs and man-hours, fewer construction delays, and fewer utility-related change orders. The findings provide insights as to when and how SUE services were used in transportation projects, and how SUE services might have improved project performance. The study also provided recommendations that can potentially improve SUE-related data management at state transportation agencies.},

The increase of private cars on the streets of Auckland in New Zealand adds to congestion which costs billions of dollars in wasted time, fuel and increase of road accidents. This study examines the SkyCabs system as a way to alleviate some of the traffic problems of Auckland as a case study. SkyCabs is an elevated two-way monobeam carrying light eight-seater cabs on tracks on each side of the beam, available on demand, providing fast, pollution-free, unimpeded travel above the footpath with panoramic views of the city. The goal of this study is to investigate the attractiveness of implementing the SkyCabs system to and from Auckland central business district (CBD) and Auckland international airport by examining four variables: different routes, different number of stops/stations, different passenger-demand levels, and different number of cabs in the system. The analysis made utilizes GIS and simulation tools for the various scenarios considered. The results show that it is possible to assess the cost-benefit of alternative routes in terms of those four variables and rate of return on investment. That is, the main results attained are CBD-airport optimum routing of 27.7 km and 25-30 minutes journey time with 28-year return period for 5 million demand (minimum level of 2016), 9.5-year for 15 million, and 4.5-year for 30 million. Implementation of such a system is feasible because it has competitive pricing, increases the public transportation use, and has an attractive level of service.},

Data from the 2009 National Household Transportation Survey combined with Los Angeles County, California, land use data were used to estimate a recursive structural equations model for an examination of causality direction and for a quantification of the built environment effect and residential self-selection effect. Results suggest that urban planning strategies that promote high population and employment density, land use mix, high four-way intersection density, and road density as well as good transit service can either significantly encourage transit use, bicycling, and walking or reduce vehicle miles traveled. However, the relatively small effect of the size of the built environment on travel behavior implies that achieving the above planning goals may cause considerable residential relocation, which contributes to the major part of observed travel behavior changes.},

abstract = {Although researchers have long argued in favor of off-peak transit service, studies that have empirically estimated its benefits regarding revenue generation, trip diversions, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission are rare. This study provides important evidence about the benefits of off-peak commuter rail service by focusing on the Pascack Valley line in New Jersey, where off-peak service was introduced in October 2007. The research involved two focus groups and an onboard survey of passengers. Benefits were estimated regarding additional revenue generation and reduction in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and GHG emission. The research shows that the new off-peak service potentially reduced VMT by more than 12 million annually due to diversions from other modes. Although diversions from other modes resulted in a substantial reduction in GHG emissions, due to the additional diesel fuel used by the new trains, the net GHG savings were in the range of 28-49 {\%}. The research further shows that both peak period and off-peak riders benefited from the new off-peak service. Evidence is found about an increase in new transit riders and a modest increase peak period usage because of the off-peak service.},

abstract = {Dessouky et al. 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 With finite resources and an extensive road network to maintain, state agencies must make 3 optimal and cost-effective decisions to prioritize roadways to receive rehabilitation (RH) and 4 preventive maintenance (PM) treatments. Prioritization methods implemented by state agencies 5 range from a simple ranking of projects based on judgment to comprehensive optimization by 6 mathematical programming models. The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) districts 7 make RH and PM decisions based on data extracted from the Pavement Management 8 Information System (PMIS). Each district uses a combination of approaches that rely 9 significantly on judgment for identifying RH and PM projects. There is a pressing need to 10 develop a simple, comprehensive prioritization method that reflects state-wide experience, while 11 it is easy to implement using PMIS data. A state-wide survey was developed to obtain the 12 various methods the districts use to make these decisions. The responses obtained suggested that 13 the PMIS data combined with visual inspection are the main tools use to prioritize projects. A 14 computer tool was developed utilizing the information obtained from the survey data. It relies on 15 a prioritization index based on the weights assigned to various distresses, as well as other factors 16 such as traffic levels and structural condition. This computer tool was successfully verified by 17 comparing its output to actual decisions made by TxDOT district personnel. 18 19 Key Words: Prioritization score, Preventive Maintenance, Rehabilitation, Pavement 20 Management. 21 22 23 INTRODUCTION 24 25 A Pavement Management Information System (PMIS) is a process for cost-effectively managing 26 a roadway network. This process includes a systematic, consistent approach of gathering and 27 analyzing pavement data and generating recommendations for making informed pavement 28 investment decisions. A PMIS typically includes subsystems for pavement rehabilitation and 29 preventive maintenance. These two types of treatments may involve models to determine the 30 most cost-effective maintenance treatment (FHWA 1997 and 1998). It is critical, however, that 31 the proper maintenance treatment be placed at the right time for the pavement to function as 32 designed and for the maintenance program to be cost effective (Hicks et al., 2000). They implied 33 also that a limitation of many systems is their inability to comprehensively analyze individual 34 projects and determine the proper timing and cost of PMIS treatment. 35 36 There are a number of indicators that highway agencies use as a basis for identifying an 37 appropriate preventive maintenance (PM) or rehabilitation (RH) treatment to address a given 38 state of pavement deterioration (Hicks et al., 2000). The two most common simple tools are 39 decision trees and decision matrices.

A financing approach being considered includes the placement of tolls along 4 selected interstate highways where tolls are not currently collected. Questions of interest to state 5 DOT officials and transportation policy makers relate to the potential impacts of such 6 approaches. The objective of this paper is to initiate the development of a decision support 7 system (DSS) to assist State Departments of Transportation in the evaluation of the impacts 8 related to placing tolls on interstate highways. Anticipated impacts include capital and operating 9 costs to implement the required toll collection strategies and technologies; expected changes in 10 existing demand along the interstate and alternate routes; potential toll revenue; and privacy and 11 equity implications. With the aid of this DSS, a decisionmaker would be able to specify different 12 toll system characteristics, add options such as desired levels of privacy and equity, and in a 13 matter of minutes estimate capital and operating costs, forecast revenues, perform net present 14 value and payback period analyses for alternative toll collection systems. The paper also includes 15 an illustrative example to demonstrate the application of the DSS to assess the impacts of 16 alternative toll approaches along a segment of Interstate 93 through Boston. The expectation is 17 that this DSS will be expanded to evaluate other financing approaches including congestion 18 pricing strategies, vehicle miles traveled (VMT) based fees, and innovative fuel tax schemes 19 indexed to inflation.},

However, it lacks the Geographic Information System (GIS) 7 component; SafetyAnalyst provides only the data interface needed to exchange spatial data. 8 Given the spatial nature of crash analysis, there is a need for a GIS component to allow users to 9 graphically select locations and display analysis results from SafetyAnalyst. SafetyAnalyst 10 assumes that an agency will adapt its existing GIS system to provide that capability. However, it 11 is unlikely that an agency will have an existing GIS system that can be customized to work with 12 the unique file structures of SafetyAnalyst. This paper discusses SafetyAnalyst, its input and 13 output file structures, and a standalone GIS system designed to interface with SafetyAnalyst. The 14 system provides an alternate method for selecting locations for analysis by SafetyAnalyst using a 15 graphical display. The system also provides a graphical display of the results from 16 SafetyAnalyst's network screening module.

Then, these new neighborhood categories (such as central city residential areas, medium density suburbs, newly built low density suburbs, etc. ) are used as independent variables to explain the resulting average trip distances, while controlling for socio-demographics and access to transit and bicycle facilities. The results indicate that the residential location characteristics are a significant factor in explaining trip distances, people who live in areas which are away from urban centers and with a low mix of employment and population travel longer distances.

By analyzing different types of data related to both the cities' network infrastructure and the travelers' demand, the system is able to suggest which are the best transportation infrastructure investments that meet the needs of people with reduced mobility in order of priority and with respect to the money budgets available. The authors show the effectiveness of the proposed system by means of two case studies focused on very different cities: London and Washington, D.C. Regarding the city of London, the results show that by making accessible a particular station (Farringdon, Hammersmith {\&} City) it is possible to reduce the total travel by a factor which is more than 8 times better than a random choice, and more than 30{\%} more effective than a solution minimizing the number of interchanges.

ABSTRACT 1 The transportation sector represents roughly 20{\%} of the CO 2 emissions in the EU and is 2 the only sector that has continued to increase emissions. As most people live and work in 3 cities in the EU, it is important to identify the leaders and laggards with regard to efforts 4 to decrease CO 2 emissions from transportation. Without an indicator of a city's 5 transportation CO 2 emissions performance, it is not possible to evaluate the current status, 6 assess progress, or make comparisons. Cities make important decisions affecting 7 transportation for the majority of citizens and thus influence transportation CO 2 8 emissions. Yet, until recently, figures for city-level emissions across the EU were not 9 available. Now, the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (E-PRTR) 10 inventory of diffuse sources allows for analysis of a range of atmospheric emissions at a 5 11 km resolution. However, the data must first be validated before being applied. The UK 12 government maintains a higher (1 km) resolution emissions inventory based on a 13 'bottom-up' methodology. The UK National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory (NAEI) 14 data has been used to assess the reliability of the new E-PRTR data. This paper describes 15 how an estimate of city-level transportation CO 2 emissions can be developed through 16 available GIS data and at what geographic level it could be reasonably applied.},

abstract = {As a sustainable transport mode, cycling is getting more attention from policy makers and transport planners throughout the world. However, in the Netherlands, and elsewhere, system wide bicycle volume data are lacking. Municipalities in the Netherlands rely on national travel survey data, combined with visual counts. The lack of data on bicycle volumes hampers municipalities to plan and improve bicycle facilities.  In the Netherlands, inductive loops for both vehicles and bicycles are present at signalized intersections. In this paper, the authors use data from these loops in the town of Enschede, to examine the actual bicycle volumes. They show that inductive loops can be used when they compare their counts with visual counts at a few signalized intersections. At low to medium bicycle volumes (up to 200 cyclists passing per hour), the detections by the inductive loops comply well with the actual number of cyclists. At higher volumes, the probability increases that two (or more) cyclists are detected as one. This happens because of the reduction of time headways, making two successive cyclists undistinguishable. By assuming a random arrival process within a certain arrival time window, the authors can explain the rate of underestimation at high volumes, and correct for this. The results of this study can be applied by practitioners to convert inductive loop data into bicycle volumes and will be a valuable source of data for road authorities in medium-sized cities in the Netherlands.},

abstract = {Many US cities have unsuccessfully experimented with jitney projects to improve transit service, reduce costs, and adapt to shifting demographics. The impetus for this research was to take advantage of a natural policy experiment, the New York City Taxi {\&} Limousine Commission[U+05F3]s (TLC) Group Ride Vehicle (GRV) Pilot Project, to evaluate why jitneys often fail when regulated to supplement conventional transit. The Commission developed the pilot project in response to service cuts on dozens of New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) bus routes throughout the city. These cuts, coupled with higher transit fares, dramatically limited transit access for many city residents. Shortly after the service reductions went into effect in June 2010, the Commission announced the pilot project to bring commuter vans (commuter vans are the licensed jitneys in New York City) to five service areas that lost regular bus service. They expected the project to improve access for New Yorkers and create opportunity for jitney drivers and operators. The pilot project targeted service areas in Brooklyn and Queens, and the Commission received commitments from five existing commuter van operators to participate in the project. The project was controversial for multiple reasons, including the City[U+05F3]s willingness to privatize formerly public transit service and the imposition of two fares for Group Ride Vehicle riders traveling into Manhattan. The first Group Ride Vehicle began service in September 2010, and despite optimism from operators and the TLC, the program was unofficially discontinued after only a few months.Though the pilot project failed to attract riders, it highlighted the importance of commuter vans for transit-dependent populations that rely on them and suggests many challenges to formalizing informal transit in the United States. Using the Group Ride Vehicle project as our starting point, we explore why informal jitneys in the United States succeed, and whether the conditions under which they prosper are compatible with conventional transit operations. Focus groups with operators, unstructured interviews with drivers and riders and participant observation are used to help explain the challenges facing the formalization of jitney services in New York. Our analysis identified four reasons why the GRV project failed: (1) a lack of subsidy to maintain service and build demand, (2) a two-month gap between the service cuts and jitney service implementation, (3) poorly branded service, and (4) confusing language used to describe the program. We argue that some of these factors are more perceived than real, but all of them reflect the difficulty of scaling up a niche jitney service to a general purpose transit service. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Origin-Destination (OD) trip matrices, which describe the patterns of traffic behavior across the network, are the primary data input used in principal traffic models and therefore, a critical requirement in all advanced systems that are supported by Dynamic Traffic Assignment models. However, because OD matrices are not directly observable, the current practice consists of adjusting an initial or seed matrix from link flow counts which are provided by an existing layout of traffic counting stations. The availability of new traffic measurements provided by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) applications allows more efficient algorithms, namely for the real-time estimation of OD matrices based on modified Kalman Filtering approaches exploiting the new data. The quality of the estimations depends on various factors, like the penetration of the ICT devices, the detection layout and the quality of the initial information. Concerning the feasibility of real-time applications, another key aspect is the computational performance of the proposed algorithms for urban networks of sensitive size. This paper presents the results of a set of computational experiments with a microscopic simulation of a network of the business district of Barcelona, which explore the sensitivity of the Kalman Filter estimates with respect to the values of the design factors, and its computational performance.},

abstract = {Like many other states around the country, Texas has experienced a boom in energy-related activities in recent years, particularly in the generation of wind power and the extraction of oil and natural gas. Although energy developments contribute to the state's energy reliability, they also result in many short- and long-term impacts on the state's transportation system. Recently, Texas conducted an evaluation of the effects of energy developments on the state right-of-way, including pavement, roadside, operational and safety, and economic impacts. During the evaluation, the research team developed a spatial approach for the assessment and prediction of energy impacts that used geodatabases of existing energy- and transportation-related data sets. This paper focuses on the development of the geodatabases, their applications in assessing energy-related impacts, and lessons learned during the development and application of the geodatabases. The development of the spatial databases involved significant effort in data collection and processing. The spatial databases that were developed enabled a wide range of queries and reports that helped the research team to understand the distribution and magnitude of energy activities in relation to transportation facilities. In addition to information about data sources and data processing methodologies, the spatial databases provided state transportation officials a useful framework for energy-related transportation planning and assessment of energy impacts and their trends. The valuable lessons and recommended strategies can help other states to fully utilize spatial data sources for understanding energy-related impacts and developing mitigation strategies.},

The primary objective of this paper is to present the results of an evaluation of alternative technologies to estimate travel time along a segment of Interstate 91 in Western Massachusetts where traffic volumes and corresponding sample sizes are expected to be relatively low. The first means of data collection uses global positions system technology (GPS) technology employed by INRIX, an enterprise that provides traffic-related information including travel time, directions, and other driver services. The second means uses Bluetooth technology and field data collected by another vendor, BlueTOAD, along the I-91 study site. A third means of data collection using a license plate based method was devised by the authors to provide “ground truth” travel time against which the results of the above two technologies were compared and evaluated. The data analysis showed that sufficient sample sizes were collected and that the accuracy of travel times estimated from data provided by both vendors (i.e., GPS-based INRIX and Bluetooth-based BlueTOAD) is acceptable since their mean absolute percentage errors (MAPE) were consistently less than 6 percent.},

Shanghai 2 was once the largest national bicycle manufacture base, and cycling continues to be one of the most 3 important commuting modes in Shanghai. However, Shanghai's bicycle mode share reduced more than 4 60{\%} from 1995 to 2009. In the last few decades, no legitimate bicycle transportation policy in Shanghai 5 was developed. Were the previous urban policy and planning account for the decline of cycling use? If so, 6 to what extent had these urban policies influenced the bicycle usership in Shanghai? 7 This paper aims to answer three of the following questions: 8 1) Which urban policies were germane to the development of cycling based on reviewing the bicycle 9 development trend in shanghai? 10 2) How did the previous policies influence cycling in Shanghai. Why did that happen? 11 3) How did these policies affect local cyclists? 12 This paper is arranged in three main sections. The first section reviews data based on statistical 13 record, examines the bicycle evolution in Shanghai and analyzes previous urban policies adopted which 14 are pertained to the development of bicycle transportation in the same decade. The second section 15 analyzes how these policies influence cycling and its environment. Based on the analysis of survey data, 16 the paper discusses the change of the local cyclists' travel characteristics due to the impact of the above 17 policies. Finally, implications are drawn to determine what the criteria of a sustainable cycling policy are.},

A lot of research to adapt Cooperative Systems to 4 different areas in ITS has already taken place, but Cooperative Systems are still under development as the 5 presented review in the paper shows. One field of application is urban intersections.

This overview is assessed 13 afterwards and if a threat for a road user is detected, a warning message is sent to the vehicles involved in 14 the critical situation.

abstract = {The mixed-use development (MXD) trip generation model provides a mechanism for estimating vehicle, walking, and transit trips for an MXD. The model applies trip modifications to standard single-use trip generation estimates developed by ITE. MXDs with diverse internal activities have been shown to capture internal trips at a rate higher than conventional suburban developments; therefore, the MXD trip generation model accounts for the internal capture of MXD sites by reducing the external trips produced and estimating the number of walking and transit trips that would typically be conducted by automobile. In addition, MXDs in central areas have been shown to generate shorter vehicle trips, and this factor has been taken into account in the model, as internal and external vehicle miles traveled (VMT) are estimated on the basis of published travel characteristics of MXDs. The MXD trip generation model provides a straightforward method of testing transportation-related metrics of MXDs. The model uses ratios from a leading research-based MXD model to reduce ITE vehicle trip estimates and presents a summary of results that show the effects on VMT, internal capture, and mode split as a result of enhanced activity density and diversity of land uses within the MXD. The MXD trip reductions are based on a methodology that analyzed data sets for 239 MXDs in six large and diverse metropolitan regions. Benefits of locally calibrated characteristics on vehicle ownership are also included in the mode split of the trip estimates of the MXD trip generation model.},

abstract = {This paper serves as a literature review and assessment of port sustainability and its potential applications for the inland river ports of Kentucky and the surrounding region. The paper discusses and defines sustainability, both generally as it relates to business and industry and specifically as it relates to the port industry and the inland port industry. Given the unique nature of the inland port industry, this review finds that the most effective methods of pursuing port sustainability have been those that employ strategies of sustainable supply chain management. To help illustrate this conclusion, the paper reviews the sustainability challenges facing various domestic and international ports, as well as some of the policy initiatives undertaken to meet these challenges. Finally, it proposes a research model for examining Kentucky port sustainability that centers on taking the lessons learned from major coastal ports and applying them to the inland port industry. The preliminary results indicate that ports along the region's inland waterways would have little difficulty adopting the sustainability practices of coastal ports so long as they focus on two types of initiatives. The first being the adoption of simple business general sustainability practices and the second being the enticing of port tenants, operators, and customers to become more sustainable. Alternatively, the more large scale " in house " sustainability initiatives undertaken at coastal ports are likely an over reaching for inland ports at this time.

abstract = {Travel demand models have advanced from zone-based methods to favor activity-based approaches that require more disaggregate data sources. Household travel surveys gather disaggregate data that may be utilized to better inform advanced travel demand models and also improve the understanding of how nonmotorized travel is influenced by a household's surrounding built environment. However, the release of these disaggregate data is often limited by a confidentiality pledge between the household participant and survey administrator. Concerns regarding the disclosure risk of survey respondents to household travel surveys must be addressed before these household-level data may be released at their disaggregate geography. In an effort to honor this confidentiality pledge and facilitate the dissemination of valuable travel survey data, this research: (i) reviews geographical perturbation methods that seek to protect respondent confidentiality; (ii) outlines a procedure for implementing one promising practice, referred to as the donut masking technique; and (iii) demonstrates a proof of concept for this technique on ten respondents to a household activity travel survey in the Portland metropolitan region. To examine the balance between limiting disclosure risk and preserving data utility, four trials were conducted and measures of household anonymity and built environment variation were analyzed for the relocated household in relation to its actual location. Results of this demonstration revealed that increases in the potential displacement distance of a geographically perturbed household generally reduced disclosure risk, but also limited data utility.},

To that end, the primary objective of this study 3 is to conduct an extensive life cycle cost analysis of a hypothetical purchase scenario of a new bus fleet 4 for New Jersey transit routes with three different purchase options: 1) Conventional Diesel 2) 5 Compressed Natural Gas and 3) Hybrid-electric. Life cycle cost analysis includes not only capital and 6 operating costs, but also air pollution costs. The novelty of this current study is the use of detailed data 7 from an actual transit planning network that includes individual link speeds and the frequency and trip 8 length of bus trips for each transit line. This approach allows us to quantify the network-wide impacts of 9 various bus purchase scenarios. Life cycle cost analysis was used to compare different bus purchase 10 scenarios, estimate the impact of operation speed on life cycle costs and calculate the impact of 11 government subsidies for initial bus purchase costs. This study concludes that, given the unit maintenance 12 and operation costs values reported in the literature and significantly higher capital costs, hybrid electric 13 buses are still not an economically viable solution for NJ Transit as compared to CNG and conventional 14 diesel buses. 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In the mid-2000s, public transit agencies began testing a new form of onboard video event recorder technology on buses. These video-based driver risk management systems capture a video clip when triggered by an unusual event, such as hard braking, a sharp turn, or impact with an object. This represented the first time that onboard cameras were intentionally focused on transit operators as a safety strategy. The objective of this study was to determine whether video-based driver risk management systems have enhanced passenger safety by reducing the frequency and severity of collisions and injuries, while also identifying lessons learned from the implementation of such systems. Data collected from National Transit Database reports and DriveCam, Inc. -- one of the video system manufacturers -- were analyzed for trends in safety performance that could be linked to adoption of the systems. Additionally, interviews were conducted with the six U.S. transit agencies and three contract operators using the systems to assess the issues faced in implementing the technology and results thus far. The study shows that video-based driver risk management systems appear to have a positive impact on transit safety achieved through a reduction in collisions and injuries, as well as the risky driving behaviors that contribute to them. The systems provide transit mangers with a wealth of information about their employees' driving habits that was not previously available. Transit agencies should strongly consider investing in video-based driver risk management systems as one component of an overall safety and training program.},

Specifically, we derive models for the expectation, variance and probability distribution of information propagation distance. Closed form approximation to the expectation is developed and is numerically shown to agree well with the exact models. Monte Carlo simulation results further validate the proposed models.

abstract = {This paper presents an analysis of the degree of willingness to change from motorized travel modes to walking or cycling. The aim of the analysis is to reduce uncertainty between stated willingness to change and real shifts from car or transit to nonmotorized transportation modes. Data were collected in the city of Valencia, Spain, through a novel data collection effort based on multiple survey methods. Respondents traveling by car or transit were asked about their willingness to change to walking or cycling under the implementation of improvement measures to be selected. Then a hypothetical scenario was presented to respondents who stated a willingness to change; in the scenario, the previously selected measures were implemented and respondents were supposed to be cycling or walking. In addition, the costs of their usual travel mode were gradually reduced until they gave up cycling or walking. Those who decided to keep on walking or cycling were assumed to have a strong willingness to change. A statistical analysis performed with Heckman's sample selection model permitted identification of demographic, socioeconomic, and travel-related factors influencing the degree of willingness to change. Results revealed that car users presented a stronger willingness to switch to walking or cycling than transit users. In addition, older respondents showed a stronger willingness to change to both walking and cycling. Work-and school-related journeys were less associated with walking than noncommuting journeys, but they were more related to cycling. Policy implications of the results are highlighted.},

In an 4 effort to better understand why travelers choose a public rest area as opposed to an alternative 5 commercial service facility, a comprehensive survey was conducted at public rest areas 6 throughout Michigan. A companion survey was also performed at large commercial travel 7 centers (i.e., truck stops) for comparison purposes. A total of 2,831 survey responses were 8 obtained at the 15 rest areas and traveler information centers, with an additional 656 responses 9 obtained at two truck stops. The results of the survey showed that rest area patrons preferred 10 rest areas when it was necessary to use the restroom or when needing a short break, primarily 11 due to the quick and convenient access from the highway. Patrons at truck stops indicated a 12 general shift in preference towards the use of commercial facilities, although rest areas were 13 preferred for several common services, including: restroom use, short break, pet relief, and 14 taking a break for children. The median value of services provided at a standard rest area was 15 {\$}1.68 compared to {\$}2.21 at traveler information centers.

abstract = {Manuscript revised from the original submission ABSTRACT Detector delay as a useful detector timing feature is often recommended to minimizing the 1 disruptions on major movements by one or more minor movements. However, this benefit of 2 detector delay is not always certain, because the applicability of detector delay is subject to a 3 combination of gap demand, gap availability, critical gap acceptance, follow-up headways and 4 other factors. Improper use of detector delay could be costly to the traffic on minor streets. With 5 very limited literature, the complex relationship between detector delays and different critical 6 factors has been fully understood. This paper presents an analytical model for estimating the 7 probability of clearing the right-turn-on-red (RTOR) queues within the period of detector delay. 8 This probability is the important first step to the understanding of how this detector feature 9 affects the intersection operational efficiency. The gap-finding process of multiple RTOR 10 vehicles is divided into several realistic cases and analyzed in great details. Insights of the 11 process described in each case have been applied to the derivation of the probability model. 12 Validation of the model is conducted using more than 4000 simulation runs. And a close fit is 13 found between the computed probability and the simulated data, with errors no larger than 5.7{\%} 14 of the targeted values. The method to derive the probability model provides a stepping stone to 15 derive the delay distributions for RTOR traffic. 16 17 18 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Graphical presentation illustrates a strong declining trend in same day trips over the period from 2001 to 2011, which may be associated with the enhanced security regime at the border in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. However other factors, including a strengthening Canadian dollar and slow economic growth after 2008 may also contribute to this trend. Regression analysis is used to identify factors affecting cross-border flows in both directions for both single day and multi-day trips. A parallel analysis is done for the flows to and from the Province of Ontario only. Results indicate that even after controlling for exchange rates and economic performance, a significant negative impact of 9/11 can be detected. A counterfactual exercise suggests that a quite dramatic reduction in vehicle crossings in both directions may be attributed to 9/11. {\textcopyright} 2014.},

Freeway performance measures are tailored to gauge efficiency and effectiveness of HOV 4 operations and applied to measure the operational performance of HOV facilities in the study sites. The 5 measured operational performance is then compared between HOV and GP lanes and between different 6 types of HOV configurations. Findings from the comparative evaluation show that when compared with 7 GP-lane travels, HOV facilities carry more people-miles with fewer vehicle-miles while offering 8 substantial travel time savings to their users; and, when compared with limited-access, contiguous-access 9 offer greater travel time savings for the sites examined in this study while the levels of utilization by 10 vehicles and people are similar. Statistical tests validate the statistical significance of differences of 11 operational performance. Based on these findings, implications for further improvement of HOV facilities 12 are discussed. 13 14 15},

Research has focused mainly on the application of Bluetooth technology to obtain travel time data on freely flowing roads. A few studies have addressed the use of Bluetooth data collection systems on arterial roads, particularly with respect to travel times between signalized intersections, with questionable accuracy. The objective of this research was to develop a methodology to collect accurate and precise travel time data between signalized intersections, with the use of a data collection system that had a Bluetooth basis. The developed methodology utilized received signal strength indicator (RSSI) data to improve significantly the accuracy of intersection-to-intersection travel time samples. Test results on a busy arterial road showed that the travel time samples generated with the RSSI method were significantly better (i.e., had less error) than the travel time samples calculated with other methods reported in the literature. The proposed RSSI travel time data collection method could be implemented with any wireless technology that provided a unique identification number to distinguish between different mobile devices and an associated signal strength measurement during the wireless communication process.},

In such 37 a context, technological constraints must be the basis for any management strategy.

In this paper, a three-41 layer multi-agent framework is used to model and control the homogenization of traffic flow 42 based on stability criteria. The physical layer coordinates the movement of vehicles based on 43 traffic dynamics. This layer includes cooperation derived from the communication and trust 44 layers that respectively manage information and its reliability.

In this context, a framework was proposed to help decision makers estimate the optimal resource allocation across multiple assets considering functional, structural, and environmental performance indicators. Carbon dioxide equivalent emissions were considered in the calculations, along with condition measures to evaluate the optimal budget allotment scenario that will lead to structural and functional integrity and environmental sustainability. The application of the framework was demonstrated in a case study with pavement and bridge assets. Results showed that the framework could be used as a supporting tool for decision makers and transportation agencies to estimate the optimal budget to invest on each asset. Also, the impact of different parameters on resource allocation policy was evaluated with a sensitivity analysis. Findings showed that the initial condition of assets and the priority (weights) assigned to each indicator (functional, structural, and environmental) could change the optimal resource allocation scenarios. The relative size of the assets was also found to have had a notable impact on the optimal budget share. Finally, the need for agencies to consider their own data inputs is discussed and recommendations for future research are given.},

This BDS provides a rich array of archived data that were used in this study to develop the trip time model for the route under study. This trip time model provides heightened understanding of the factors that affect the trip time on the route. The value of the model was revealed when sensitivity analyses were performed using data from the studied route. This analysis concluded that improvements can be readily achieved after understanding the factors that affect total trip time.

Use of the empirical Bayes (EB) method coupled with the use of safety performance 3 functions (SPFs) is regarded as the state of practice in identifying such locations. To apply the 4 EB-SPF method, however, requires considerable resources in preparing data as well as statistical 5 expertise. As a consequence, many highway agencies still rely on traditional methods that use 6 crash frequency and crash rate to identify locations for potential safety improvements without 7 knowing the accuracy of such methods. 8 This study examined four traditional methods commonly used to identify potential 9 locations for safety improvements and compared them to the EB-SPF method. The four methods 10 evaluated were crash frequency, crash rate, rate-quality control, and equivalent property damage 11 only methods. The study was limited to four-leg intersections with either a traffic signal or two-12 way stop control, and 2004-2008 data were collected at 1,670 such intersections. The study 13 found that the crash frequency method performed the best among the four methods in correctly 14 identifying the top 1 percent of unsafe intersections. However, the method tended to flag 15 intersections as top hot spots incorrectly. The rate-quality control method performed the best 16 with respect to identifying the top 5 and 10 percent of unsafe intersections. The findings are 17 expected to help highway agencies that continue to use the traditional methods choose the most 18 appropriate method so that scarce resources available for safety improvement can be invested 19 effectively. 20 21},

abstract = {This paper discusses a naturalistic driving study on the use of mobile phones and navigation systems while driving. Manual interactions with these devices while driving can cause distraction from the driving task and reduce traffic safety. In this study 21 subjects were observed for 5 weeks. Their behavior was logged by four cameras, a Global Position- ing System sensor, and a number of additional sensors. Results are pre- sented on the durations and frequencies of manual interactions with the mobile phone and navigation system. Different manual subtasks with different levels of visual interaction are discussed, as well as how these interactions relate to driving speed. Results show that participants spent on average 1{\%} of their driving time interacting with the navigation sys- tem and 4{\%} of their driving time interacting with the mobile phone, excluding mobile phone conversations. For the mobile phone, 48{\%} of the interactions took longer than 15 s; for the navigation system it was 40{\%}. The average duration of a visual–manual subtask for the naviga- tion system and the mobile phone was not significantly different when the task was performed while driving or while the vehicle was standing still. Exploratory analysis of vehicle speed suggests that drivers do not seem to adjust their speed while performing a visual–manual task. The results are discussed in relation to traffic safety and recommendations for future research.},

abstract = {This study seeks to advance current methods to measure walkability by relating detailed non-motorized infrastructure data with walking behavior in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. Walking distances were estimated using an innovative approach that involved spatially referencing trip location data from a travel diary and calculating shortest distance along a pedestrian network that incorporates both street and off-street pedestrian path data. Results indicate that when controlling for individual and household socio-demographic characteristics, pedestrians walk approximately the same average daily distance, regardless of their home neighborhood walkability. By explicitly examining both walking trips and distances as outcomes, it was possible to consider trade-offs between number of trips and distance walked, by neighborhood walkability. However, individuals living in more walkable neighborhoods are both more likely to walk at least once and engage in more walking trips than those in less walkable neighborhoods. These findings support the notion that increased accessibility reduces trip distances by bringing origins and destinations closer together. The findings from this study can help to inform design standards as part of neighborhood definitions and distance thresholds to destinations to support walking},

In this study, best practices are highlighted and program characteristics associated with high levels of nonmotorized travel are identified, with an emphasis on bicyclists and pedestrians in the California communities of Davis, Palo Alto, and San Luis Obispo, cities known for being bicycle and pedestrian friendly. Analyses of a user preference survey of more than 630 residents in the case study communities, interviews with operators, and review of related literature reveal several factors that matter most to stakeholders for creating bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly places. These factors include (a) acceptable bicycling and walking distances to desired activities, (b) direct routes, (c) good route connectivity, and (d) separation of motorized and nonmotorized transportation modes. Recommendations are presented as key considerations for integrating bicycling and walking facilities into urban infrastructure and are arranged to correspond to the trip-making cycle, from the decision to engage in an activity through the choice of route to arrival at the destination. Findings indicate that bicyclists and pedestrians alike strongly desire automobile-separated facilities on streets. This finding suggests that these kinds of projects may merit priority over purely recreational paths. Although roadways may generally need to be friendly for bicycling and walking, the emphasis should be on linking activity locations and transit stations that are purposely placed to be within acceptable distances for these activities.},

abstract = {A Dynamic Lane-Based Signal Merge Control Model for Freeway Work Zone Operations 1 2 ABSTRACT 3 Traditional merge control strategies cannot yield expected effectiveness under heavy traffic 4 conditions at freeway work zones because inevitable traffic conflicts resulted from complex 5 merging and lane-changing maneuvers could increase the potential of traffic accidents, induce 6 stop-and-go movements, and degrade the operational efficiency. This paper presents a dynamic 7 control model to optimize the signal operations of a new merge system, the lane-based signal 8 merge (LBSM), which uses lane-based signals or variable signs to give drivers in different lanes 9 the right of way to proceed through the open lane(s) in a work zone area. The control objective is 10 to maximize the work zone throughput. Genetic algorithm is employed to solve the model. 11 Results reveal that the proposed method yields promising work zone operational performance 12 under heavy traffic conditions. 13 14 1. INTRODUCTION 15 Background 16 Work zone activities involved with the lane changing and merging maneuvers have a significant 17 impact on traffic mobility and safety on freeway operations. To contend with this critical issue, 18 transportation professionals have proposed a variety of merge control strategies over the past 19 several decades, including the conventional merge (CM), the static early merge (SEM), and the 20 static late merge (SLM). The CM (1,2) is the most commonly used strategy for work zone 21 operations. SEM is designed to minimize the speed variations resulting from lane-changing and 22 merging conflicts by making drivers merge early into the open lane at the farthest upstream 23 segment and complete the merging maneuvers before reaching the merge point. The performance 24 of SEM has been reported by the literature (2,3) to significantly improve the traffic safety under 25 light and moderate traffic conditions. SLM is designed to increase the work zone throughput by 26 fully using the closed lane and making drivers merge at the merging point. The SLM 27 outperforms the early merge with a more specific objective of maximizing throughput and 28 reducing travel times (2,3). 29 To take advantages of both SEM and SLM strategies, a dynamic late merge (DLM) 30 strategy has been proposed (3), which can dynamically display the merging messages based on 31 the properly designed rules. Several field tests (4,5) as well as simulation experiments (6) have 32 demonstrated the performance of the DLM, which can flexibly respond to the time-varying 33 traffic demand by combining SEM and SLM. However, the main issue in DLM is to decide 34 when the early merge or the late merge should be activated based on the optimal set of control 35 thresholds (CT). In this regard, a lane-based dynamic merge (LBDM) control model and its 36 operational algorithm has been developed (7) considering the selection of proper control 37 variables for the DLM operations and the determination of their appropriate thresholds under the 38 time-varying traffic conditions. As illustrated in Figure 1, in the developed LBDM system, CT1 39 reflects the traffic state boundary between free and moderate conditions, and CT2 indicates the 40 boundary of the congested traffic state in a work zone. The LBDM control model aims to 41 maximize the total work zone throughput by effectively activating the early merge or late merge 42 based on computing the optimal values of CT1 and CT2. Simulation experiments show that the 43 LBDM can fully utilize the effectiveness of SEM and SLM within the range of CT1 and CT2, 44 resulting in increased average speed and decreased speed variation. However, when the traffic 45 demand is high (i.e., traffic state is beyond the CT2), the LBDM system loses its effectiveness 46 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Rules that can be added to a base of decentralized, clock-free actuated control are proposed for managing queues during periods of oversaturation. These rules are part of a larger framework for developing logic that will make arterial traffic signals self-organizing rather than organized around a common signal cycle. Features of the proposed logic include green truncation in case of intersection spillback, early green and double realization for left-turn phases prone to pocket spillback resulting from a limited turn-bay length, and dynamic coordination for groups of signals spaced too close together to hold a normal cycle's queue.

The recent development of emissions models such as the MOtor Vehicle 4 Emission Simulator model (MOVES) finally satisfied that critical need, and opened the door 5 to integrating microscopic traffic simulators with MOVES to allow for assessing the 6 environmental impact of traffic management and control measures. To integrate traffic 7 micro-simulators with MOVES, the second-by-second vehicle trajectory output from the 8 traffic simulator can, in principal, be used to define the link drive schedule required to run the 9 project-level MOVES analysis. However, the challenge is that the MOVES model requires 10 defining a representative vehicle trajectory for each link, because tracking the emissions for 11 individual vehicles is computationally intractable. This paper describes a study designed to 12 evaluate the accuracy of different approaches to determining the link drive schedule of a 13 representative vehicle on a link. Specifically, the study compares the accuracy of two 14 aggregation methods and one sampling method for doing this. The accuracy of the 15 aggregation and sampling methods are evaluated for both freeway links as well as arterial 16 links, and for both Cellular Automata based traffic micro-simulators and for car-following 17 models. The results indicate that the sampling method outperforms either one of the 18 aggregation methods, and that using few sampled vehicles and repeating the analysis for a 19 few model runs may be better than using more samples and running the analysis only once.},

abstract = {Actuated traffic signal control logic has many advantages because of its responsiveness to traffic demands, short cycles, effective use of capacity leading to and recovering from oversaturation, and amenability to aggressive transit priority. Its main drawback has been its inability to provide good progression along arterials. However, the traditional way of providing progression along arterials, coordinated-actuated control with a common, fixed cycle length, has many drawbacks stemming from its long cycle lengths, inflexibility in recovering from priority interruptions, and ineffective use of capacity during periods of oversaturation. This research explores a new paradigm for traffic signal control, "self-organizing signals," based on local actuated control but with some additional rules that create coordination mechanisms. The primary new rules proposed are for secondary extensions, in which the green may be held to serve an imminently arriving platoon, and dynamic coordination, in which small groups of closely spaced signals communicate with one another to cycle synchronously with the group's critical intersection. Simulation tests in VISSIM performed on arterial corridors in Massachusetts and Arizona show overall delay reductions of up to 14{\%} compared to an optimized coordinated-actuated scheme where there is no transit priority, and more than 30{\%} in scenarios with temporary oversaturation. Tests also show that with self-organizing control, transit signal priority can be more effective than with coordinated-actuated control, reducing transit delay by about 60{\%}, or 12 to 14. s per intersection with little impact on traffic delay.},

abstract = {Gravity models have been widely used in the trip distribution stage of travel demand models over decades. Recent advancements in research suggest that the destination choice model is a preferred trip distribution method rather than the gravity model. In this paper, a comparison of destination choice model and gravity model is presented using a real case study applied within the Maryland Statewide Transportation Model. The gravity model is formulated as a function of travel time and origin-destination's production-attraction ability and the destination choice model is based upon the utility maximization principle. Household Travel Survey data collected in the Baltimore-Washington region is used to estimate and calibrate the parameters of both models. Considering the wide spectrum of diversity in growth pattern in the Baltimore-Washington survey data, the study area is divided into eight regions to reflect region specific travel behavior. From the result, it is found that a destination choice model better replicates the observed trip length and origin-destination matrix for home based work (HBW) trips. In contrast, the gravity model does not succeed in accurately estimating trip attractions when compared to the survey data. The result shows that a destination choice model performs better than a gravity model in this a statewide model. This research can be used as a tool to assist in choosing a trip distribution method for travel demand modeling.},

abstract = {Florida has a severe problem with pedestrian and bicyclist fatalities. Recent trends show that Florida's pedestrian fatality rate is almost double the national average. Traditional safety programs rely on crash data to develop safety campaigns or countermeasures to increase safety. Since crash data are not readily available and a long time has to pass before meaningful data is collected, a “risk score” was developed to measure the behavior of road users at selected sites in Hillsborough and Miami-Dade counties. Surveys were conducted in June-July 2012 in two of the highest pedestrian crash and fatality counties in Florida to collect data and establish baseline conditions. The surveys included opinion surveys of pedestrians and observations of pedestrians and bicyclists, and their interaction with drivers. The locations where the surveys were conducted were selected based on site characteristics including pedestrian treatments or features, crash history, and land use. The two surveys offered insight on the difference between what people know about the law or correct behavior, and what they actually do in reality. Results pinpoint the problems and aid in deciding the focus of safety campaigns and target audience. The risk score showed that the majority of sites exhibited unsafe behavior from pedestrians, bicyclists, and drivers. The risk score has the potential to aid in measuring the effectiveness of a safety campaign launched by the Florida Department of Transportation focused on increasing the awareness on traffic laws. This way, appropriate countermeasures or funds can be selected for the higher ranking sites first.},

In this paper, a queue length estimation model is proposed to solve this long queue problem using short vehicle trajectories. We first introduce the vehicle trajectory reconstruction model to estimate the missing part in vehicle deceleration or acceleration. The long queue model is then reduced to an ordinary short queue model. A delay-based estimation method is developed to evaluate the cycle-by-cycle queue length. The proposed method is applicable to the moving queue or over-saturation condition, and performs well under low penetration rate. The model is tested in a field experiment with reasonable results.},

ABSTRACT 1 2 In the recent decades, increasing number of travel researchers show interest in travel behavior 3 research based on GPS/GIS technology. The challenge of successfully utilizing GPS-based data 4 is the efficient post-processing method that could generate the essential components as 5 accurately as possible in travel behavior researches such as travel time, trip purpose, travel mode, 6 and trip length. This paper concentrates on part of the GPS data post-processing: trip purpose 7 derivation, and explores the feasibility of automating trip purpose detection employing machine 8 learning method with geospatial location data, the land use data, and the in-practice GPS-based 9 survey conducted by University of Minnesota. Furthermore, it evaluates the impacts of different 10 land use coding methods based on polygon-level, geo-coded home/work locations and Point of 11 Interest (POI) land use data combined with different machine learning methods including 12 decision tree, support vector machine and metalearner. A heterogeneous sample of 2238 trip 13 records with decoded 7 trip purposes is employed. Results show that under all the machine 14 learning methods, the cluster-based land use coding method is exceeded by the closest POI land 15 use coding method, while amongst the three machine learning methods, the metalearner has the 16 best performance to classify the trip purpose. Based on the metalearner and the data set using the 17 closest POI land use coding method, the highest classification accuracy 80.5817{\%} can be 18 achieved.},

Existing 2 efforts in this area mostly involved models that simplified drivers' decision process by assuming 3 travelers to have definite information about travel times on various routes. The driving force 4 behind these models has been economic rationality, which follows the principles of rational 5 theory. However, random disruptions in traffic, both expected and unexpected, make traffic 6 networks uncertain and drivers' route-choice behavior may drift away from rationality. 7 Therefore, efforts should be made to advance existing route-choice models by exploring the use 8 of theories in other fields of science, like psychology, where it has been well established that 9 peoples' attitudes are often influenced by behavioral factors like subconscious perceptions and 10 risk preferences. The goal of this research is to cross-fertilize state-of-the art behavioral theories 11 and random utility based route choice models to measure drivers' route choice attitudes toward 12 travel time uncertainty. The route choice attitudes are elicited through stated preference surveys. 13 Non-linear logit models are formulated that incorporate probability weighting, and risk and 14 ambiguity attitudes (two aspects of uncertainty) with a goal of adding behavioral rigor existing 15 random utility framework. Most importantly, willingness to pay values are derived for uncertain 16 routes that are more behaviorally appealing. Finally, the results are applied in the context of 17 variable tolling via illustrative examples.},

With the ubiquitous applications of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies, privacy issues in transportation are becoming increasingly important and need to be addressed carefully. As a well-known trade-off, data needs and privacy protection should be deliberately balanced for different applications. This paper focuses on developing privacy mechanisms to simultaneously satisfy privacy protection and modeling needs for fine-grained urban traffic modeling using mobile sensors. To accomplish this, a virtual trip lines (VTL) zone-based system and related filtering approaches are developed. Traffic-knowledge-based adversary models are proposed to evaluate the effectiveness of such system by making privacy attacks. The results show that besides ensuring an acceptable level of privacy, the released datasets from such privacy-enhancing system can also be applied to traffic applications with satisfactory performance. Albeit application specific, such " Privacy-by-Design " approach would hopefully shed some light on other applications.},

abstract = {Multi-vehicle household fleets are often composed of vehicles with a wide range of attributes, including passenger and cargo capacities, towing capability, and fuel consumption. Decisions for how these vehicles are assigned to trips can have a significant impact on a household's total fuel use. In this paper, actual vehicle assignments from the 2001 and 2009 NHTS data are compared to the fuel use-minimizing decisions using CTRAM — a model which determines optimal vehicle-to-trip assignments considering constraints on vehicle availability and capability. Results show that the average potential reduction in fuel use through optimal assignment for multi-vehicle households was 10.9{\%} in 2001 and 10.2{\%} in 2009. However, the corresponding increase in assignment optimality that is seen in this period does not appear to be the result of a greater prevalence of active, short-term vehicle assignment decisions, such as a driver's voluntary use of a non-preferred vehicle, or switching vehicles mid-day. This finding provides evidence that the higher level of assignment optimality in 2009 was influenced by other, possibly longer-term decisions, such as considering fuel consumption in purchase decisions according to the primary driver's expected usage of the vehicle (e.g. a small, efficient vehicle for long-distance work commuting). The significance of this conclusion is reinforced by the finding that increases in assignment optimality are smaller in lower income households, possibly due to the lack of efficient vehicles in the secondary market in the years preceding the 2009 survey.},

However, manual, visual evaluation of pavement 4 surface distress is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and potentially dangerous. In order to 5 overcome these limitations, this paper presents a novel approach for pavement surface distress 6 detection through the use of aerial photos. This study was conducted using aerial photographs 7 taken in 2010 and 2011 for part of the state of New Mexico. Twenty mileposts were selected as 8 the study sites and the distress rates for these mileposts were calculated based on manual, visual 9 observations using standard NMDOT protocols. Using the aerial photos as the base map, 10 polygons were manually created on the aerial photos to simulate the visual evaluation zones. The 11 statistics of the spectral response of different bands within these polygons were extracted and 12 compared to the calculated distress rates using stepwise linear regression models. The results 13 revealed that the spectral response in the aerial photos closely matches the calculated distress 14 rates. These results open the way for the future use of aerial photographs to measure pavement 15 distress rates, thereby providing a cost-effective, efficient, and safer alternative to traditional 16 evaluation methods.},

The en route diversion model is first estimated with behavior data from a driving simulator. Subsequently, the model is recalibrated for Maryland, based on Bluetooth detector data, and applied to analyze two dynamic message sign scenarios on I-95 and I-895. This calibration method allows researchers and practitioners to transfer the en route diversion model to other regions based on local observations.

abstract = {The pedestrian comfort and safety level in mass transit stations is now attracting more and more attention, especially in many Asian cities, due to the congested pedestrian flow pattern. This pattern in stations is affected by factors such as the indoor spatial setting of the station, the traffic demand between the entrance and the stairs and the escalators. As a result, multi-directional pedestrian flows interact with each other and finally formed a relatively complex distribution. To simulate this kind of pedestrian flow for planning or evaluation, the present paper addresses two key models in the problem: a hybrid routing model and a collision avoidance model. Space syntax and network flow assignment is combined as a hybrid model to automatically construct pedestrian network and then assign pedestrian to different routes. This procedure provides pedestrians route information, i.e., a sequence of intermediate destinations. Meanwhile, a behavioral model is introduced during the pedestrian movement process to avoid collisions with each other and the obstacles as well.

abstract = {Major transit projects can have profound effects on nearby businesses. Although much research has investigated physical neighborhood changes and neighborhood demographic changes driven by transit projects, little is known about the perceived effects of transit projects in business communities. In a direct response to this knowledge gap, a random-sampled survey of 160 businesses was conducted along four existing and planned transit corridors in the Twin Cities region in Minnesota. With the survey responses, ordered logistic regression models of business perceptions of transit corridor projects were estimated. It was found that responding businesses generally expect positive effects from transit corridors in the future, but the likelihood of positive perceptions differs significantly according to business location, size, and sector, as well as employees' and customers' demographics and customers' travel behavior. These findings provide insights into the types of businesses to target for special outreach efforts as well as strategies for mitigating negative effects and maximizing positive effects perceived by station area businesses.},

abstract = {Train delay incidents have major effects on transit service reliability and on customer satisfaction. Operators have long focused efforts on preventing such incidents. While this action is important, the fact that all transit operations inevitably face some degree of delay and disrup- tion from incidents means that operators must also dedicate attention to reducing the duration of incidents and the time to restore normal operations after incidents occur. To be able to do this, it is necessary to measure the total impact of incidents on train service and customers. This research uses data from the CoMET and Nova metro benchmark- ing groups to investigate the ways in which transit operators can better measure the full effects of incidents on train service and customers. The key benefit of such a passenger-focused approach is that it enables transit managers to direct resources for incident response and recov- ery better, as well as support the case for strategic investments. This research has shown that most operators measure and report only the frequency of incidents. Of the 22 metros interviewed, only two were able to provide detailed data to estimate the number of passengers affected by incidents. It is no coincidence that the only two metros able to provide detailed data are in fact two of the most reliable in the group. All},

Given the complexity of 3 planning and environmental reviews associated with high-speed intercity passenger rail corridor 4 planning, a systematic approach for high-level screening of various alternative routings for 5 proposed high-speed rail corridors is desired. In this context, this paper proposes a multi-criteria 6 decision-making framework to assist high-speed rail planners with the preliminary screening and 7 ranking of potential high-speed rail corridors. The proposed framework is applied to the 8 question of ranking 13 alternative routings for connecting the South Central and Gulf Coast 9 federally-designated high-speed rail corridors located in Texas. Attributes that are incorporated 10 in the decision framework include population, travel demand, capital costs, land use and 11 environmental impacts, and engineering suitability. While the multi-criteria decision-making 12 framework developed in this paper cannot be used to completely replace the environmental 13 review process and formal alternatives analysis, it can be used by planners as a tool for 14 preliminary screening or ranking of proposed high-speed rail corridors for detailed analysis. 15 16 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

One common method is to install signalized MBCs. 3 Until now, there are four mature signal control systems at MBCs that currently used in the U.S. , 4 Great Britain and some other countries which are pedestrian actuated (PA), pedestrian light 5 controlled (PELICAN), high intensity activated crosswalk (HAWK) and pedestrian user-friendly 6 intelligent (PUFFIN). Efficiency evaluation of these methods also has been carried out, however, 7 most of the previous studies based on the hypothesis that pedestrians proceed under green signal, 8 but in reality it is very common to see pedestrians enter crossings during pedestrian clearance 9 interval, which is supposed to weaken the effectiveness and safety at crossings. 10 With a strictly calibrated VISSIM model and SSAM software, the research explores how 11 signalization schemes, pedestrian clearance interval violation rates, traffic flow and geometries 12 affect the efficiency and safety of all road users at MBCs, in order to provide traffic engineers 13 some guidance to select proper methods. Based on a Pearson-correlation analysis and multiple 14 linear regression model, it is found that pedestrian signal violation during clearance interval can 15 slightly reduce pedestrian delay, but results in a rapid increase on pedestrian-vehicle conflicts, 16 especially for HAWK. 17 The final results show that PA leads to high delay of both pedestrians and vehicles but less 18 conflicts, PELICAN is beneficial for vehicular traffic by reducing vehicle delay but unbeneficial 19 for pedestrian traffic since pedestrian delay is always high. HAWK and PUFFIN are better than 20 the above two methods from balancing safety and efficiency for all road users. HAWK has a 21 satisfactory performance at low pedestrian flow but it attributes to more conflicts when 22 pedestrian flow increase up to " middle " and " many " , especially when pedestrian clearance 23 interval violation rate is high. However, PUFFIN has a better performance than HAWK from 24 both perspectives when pedestrian volume is " middle " and " many " .},

ABSTRACT 1 Transportation planning agencies all over the world usually maintain travel time matrices (or net-2 work skims) for a small number of time windows. In order to predict travelers' response to conges-3 tion mitigation strategies, it becomes essential to develop time of day choice models that require 4 travel time estimates at a finer time resolution. In this paper, we develop regression models to relate 5 travel times collected from taxi GPS data to the network travel times and compare the results to a 6 similar model estimated with household travel survey data. The rationale behind this procedure is 7 to develop a formula that allows the calculation of travel time for any origin-destination pair and 8 for any time of the day, given the network travel times for three time periods (AM peak, PM peak, 9 and off-peak). The two data sources, survey and GPS data, are compared based on descriptive 10 statistics and by plotting the variation of the predicted speed by time of day. Statistical tests are 11 performed to investigate whether the two data sources can be pooled together. The test results in-12 dicate that though there are significant differences in the estimated coefficients which do not vary 13 across time of day (for example, coefficients of distance, and central business district indicators), 14 the two data sources exhibit comparable profiles of time of day variation in speed up to a certain 15 scale. 16 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The algorithm 4 proposed is based on the selection of optimal covariates constructed as speed moments, for a class of 5 conditional mean predictors. The second contribution of this article consists in the analysis of specific 6 components of the speed moments with significant correlation with flow values. In particular, we show 7 that for more than 75{\%} of the fixed sensing devices considered, the correlation coefficient between the 8 inter-lanes speed variance and the aggregate flow is more than 0.75. Additionally, for more than 70{\%} of 9 these fixed sensing devices the lane speed variance increases with flow. The third contribution of this 10 article consists of identifying the explanatory features for the high correlation between speed moments 11 and flow values.

abstract = {The Braess paradox and its variants have been studied under the perfectly rational behavior assumption. However, when the perfect rationality assumption is relaxed to bounded rationality, which assumes that travelers can take any route whose travel cost is within an 'indifference band' of the shortest path cost, it remains unclear under what conditions the Braess paradox occurs. This paper fills this gap by exploring relationships between the occurrence of the Braess paradox and the indifference band as well as the demand level in the setting of the boundedly rational user equilibrium (BRUE). The definition of the Braess paradox is extended based on planners' risk-taking attitudes, i.e., risk-averse, risk-prone and risk-neutral, due to the non-uniqueness of BRUE. The paradox occurrence conditions under different risk-taking attitudes are investigated using the classical Braess network and compared with those under the user equilibrium. Then we generalize the paradox conditions to simple and ordinary grid networks with regular Bureau of Public Roads (BPR) link performance functions. The impact of the link cost congestion sensitivity along with the indfference band on the occurrence of the Braess paradox is also studied. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

The 5 proposed approximation, thus, serves as an analytically tractable stochastic model for purposes of real-6 time estimation and prediction of traffic conditions along both freeways and signalized arterials. Namely, 7 the model is linear in the stochastic traffic variables, which allows for use of a standard Kalman filter of 8 the continuous-discrete type.

Three established methods of proving stability of the 6 hybrid system will be employed, they are: Multiple Lyapunov method, Piecewise quadratic Lyapunov 7 method and Commuting stability method. Since studying the stability of hybrid system is quite complex, 8 the stability of the boundedly rational dynamic will be analyzed by above three methods on a hypothetical 9 network, as a pilot study. Due to non-uniqueness of the equilibria, some modification will be proposed 10 when these methods are utilized. Finally how to identify attraction domains of the dynamic is explored, 11 when Commuting stability method is implemented.

abstract = {Cities around the United States are investing in bicycle infrastructure, and to secure additional transportation funding, cities are reporting bicycle use and safety improvements. Data on bicyclist traffic volume is necessary for performing safety studies and reporting facility use. Meeting the need for data, available manual bicycle counting programs count cyclists for a few hours per year at designated locations. A key issue in the design of counting programs is determining the tuning and frequency of counts needed to obtain a reliable estimate of annual average daily bicyclists (AADB). In particular, in which days of the week, hours of the day, and months of the year should counts be collected? And, most important to program cost, how many hours should be counted? This study used continuous bicycle counts from Boulder, Colorado, to estimate AADB and analyze the estimation errors that would be expected from various bicycle-counting scenarios. AADB average estimation errors were found to range from 15{\%} with 4 weeks of continuous count data to 54{\%} when only 1 h of data was collected per year. The study found that the most cost-effective length for short-term bicycle counts is one full week when automated counting devices specifically calibrated for bicycle counting are used. Seasons with higher bicycle volumes have less variation in bicycle counts and thus more accurate estimates.},

Optimally located distribution centers can significantly improve the logistics 47 system's efficiency and reduce its operational cost. However, it is not an easy task to optimize 48 distribution center locations and previous studies focused primarily on location optimization of a 49 single distribution center. With the growing logistics demands, multiple distribution centers 50 become necessary to meet customers' requirements, but few studies have tackled the Multiple 51 Distribution Center Locations (MDCL) problems. This paper presents a comprehensive 52 algorithm to address the MDCL problem. Fuzzy integration and clustering approach using the 53 Improved Axiomatic Fuzzy Set (AFS) theory is developed for location clustering based on 54 multiple hierarchical evaluation criteria. Then, Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to 55 Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is applied for evaluating and selecting the best candidate for each 56 cluster. Sensitivity analysis is also conducted to assess the influence of each criterion in the 57 location planning decision procedure. Results from a case study in Guiyang, China, reveals that 58 the approach developed in this study outperforms other similar algorithms for multiple 59 distribution center location selections.

In this 3 paper, a bi-level programming model is proposed for optimization of taxi fare in monopoly market, as 4 simultaneously considers the equilibrium between the social welfare and profit of taxi firms. The 5 upper-level problem is a set of formulations ensuring maximization of social welfare under constrain 6 on taxi fare restriction of government in taxi industry. The lower-level model aims to maximize the 7 profit of taxi firms from fare revenue and maintains the positive value of firm profit and 8 supply-demand equilibrium of taxi market. The Lagrangian approach is used to transform the lower 9 model into upper model with K-K-T conditions, and the bi-level programing model becomes a 10 single-level programing model. The Genetic Algorithm and Simulated Annealing algorithm are 11 respectively designed to solve the model.

abstract = {A reliable a priori shortest path (RASP) offers the least time budget which ensures that a traveler can arrive at the destination on-time with the desired probability. RASP is equivalent to enumerating all non-dominated paths under the first order stochastic dominance (FSD) rule. Compared with the problem in static networks, the RASP problem becomes more complex in dynamic networks because it is more difficult to compute path travel time distributions. Two modules of process are the keys to solve the RASP problem. One is the convolution scheme (how to compute a path travel time distribution from its member links' travel time distributions), and another one is the stochastic dominance scheme (how to determine non-dominated paths). This paper aims to find an efficient solution algorithm to this problem. Firstly, we develop an alternative convolution method based on adaptive discretization approach which was originally proposed to solve the RASP problem in static networks. On the other hand, we show that the higher order stochastic dominance rule can reduce the number of non-dominated paths, which promises to improve the computational efficiency. Numerical experiments show that the second-order stochastic dominance (SSD) rule offer good approximations, while the CPU time is reduced by at least 50{\%}.},

abstract = {As median household incomes rise in India, discretionary spending in the consumption basket is going up, along with increases in transportation budgets. Middle-class households are investing in private vehicles such as motorized two-wheelers (TWs) and cars. This is further adding to negative externalities such as congestion, emissions, higher accident rates, noise pollution, etc.  This paper explores the drivers of TW and car ownership in middle-class Indian households. The analysis is conducted using a household travel survey from the Greater Mumbai Region (GMR), where the unit of analysis is the household (N=38,346). Using a discrete choice modeling framework, where the choice set is households having (i) no vehicles, (ii) only TW/s, or (iii) at least one car, the results indicate that utility from vehicle ownership increases with – • Life cycle variables: kids in the household, married status of primary wage earner. • Socio-demographic variables: housing unit characteristics (number of rooms, apartment/independent housing type), primary wage earner's characteristics (college education, employment status, male), persons in the household. • Other variables: per capita household income, distance from a railway station, primary wage earner's urban periphery work location, population density at primary wage earner's work location.  These findings illustrate the sensitivity of vehicle ownership not only to life cycle and socio-demographic variables, but also to land use variables such as density, proximity to transit, and jobs-housing locations in the city-region. Policies that encourage both in-city and urban periphery node development, with strategic higher development densities, along with provision of public transportation options are indicated from this research.},

abstract = {Urban India is rapidly growing as people dream of better lives and move to cities. However, areas within city boundaries are growth constrained due to floor-area ratio ceilings. Thus, much of the new growth ‘escapes' to urban peripheries where small existing towns and villages become agglomeration anchors. Many peripheral areas become bedroom communities for lower-income households, but have inadequate infrastructure supply.  This paper focuses on how suburbanization is affecting vehicle use in the Greater Mumbai Region (GMR). As incomes grow, regulatory burdens and use costs become smaller, increasing households' willingness to use vehicles, especially for non-discretionary trips. The lack of efficient travel options adds to private vehicle use. Higher vehicle use impacts quality of life issues such as time spend commuting, accident rates, noise pollution, and particulate/GhG emissions.  Using a 1.5{\%} household travel dataset of the GMR, this paper presents findings from vehicle kilometers traveled and person kilometers traveled models. The unit of analysis is the household, and models are specified as log-log ordinary least square regressions. The models show that vehicle use goes down if density of housing and jobs increases at the home or work location. Car use goes up with per capita income, but it goes down for two-wheelers. Vehicle use increases with distance to transit and number of earners in the household. Overall, the findings have implications not just for managing vehicle use through mechanisms such as pricing during peak times, but also for management of the agglomerative forces both within and outside municipal boundaries.},

Abstract 1 The current dual-standard system for regulating fuel economy, which is intended to limit 2 automobile dependence on foreign oils, is actually providing a market advantage for less fuel-3 efficient vehicles and redefining how Americans approach transportation. In the last decade, 4 light-duty trucks in the forms of pickups, sport-utility vehicles (SUVs), and minivans have 5 become common passenger vehicles, but they have not been classified as such by the fuel 6 regulations 7 The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration updated fuel-economy regulations 8 in recent years to address modern challenges. The updated system retains the dual standard but 9 attempts to refine vehicle classification through physical characteristics, but physical 10 characteristics of vehicles are not the sole factor influencing purchasing decisions. People buy 11 vehicles to fit lifestyles and portray self-images; hence people's purchasing decisions are heavily 12 influenced by how products are represented. 13 The objective of this research is to characterize and evaluate how vehicle marketing 14 material for specific vehicles differs from how those vehicles are represented and counted for 15 fuel-economy compliance. This study addresses this objective with a content analysis of vehicle 16 brochures evaluated through the lens of critical discourse analysis. Statistical analysis of 17 brochure content showed significantly greater focus on passenger themes in brochures for light-18 duty trucks even though the looser regulatory standards for these trucks were intended to keep 19 costs low for business and freight. The industry intentionally communicates certain values by 20 depicting certain functions the consumer should expect vehicles to perform. This study identifies 21 how manufacturers do not necessarily market vehicles according to fuel-economy designations 22 and it shows that the regulations have not kept up with changing consumer preferences. 23 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Various strategies to address the energy and environmental issues require significant reductions from the transportation sector. Automated Electric Transportation (AET) is one concept that can help to achieve this. AET's operational concepts will allow for reduction of congestion while reducing energy required to power the vehicles, and ultimately CO2 emission. This study aims to develop an evaluation framework of the AET system. It focuses on three measures of effectiveness (MOEs): the system capacity, energy savings, and emission reduction. They are examined based on simulated vehicle activity profiles obtained from Paramics. This proposed framework should be capable of evaluating the impact due to the future implementation of AET. The advantages of AET over the conventional real-world driving pattern are also discussed.},

In particular, the use of different materials, maintenance strategies, latest equipment and hurdles to sustainability were explored. The online survey included a total of 34 questions specifically addressing application rates, materials, types of equipment and preferences towards various maintenance strategies. The information obtained from this research represents a unique compilation of the current standard of practice as described by actual field practitioners in the form of answers to carefully designed questions. From a research perspective, the results from the survey are very useful in explaining material usage patterns and exploring potential areas for improvement. Practitioners in the field can compare their practices to those presented in the survey while equipment and material manufacturers can use the results to improve their products and better serve the need of the industry. The results reveal that a large percentage of maintenance contractors only estimate their application rates based on seasonal salt purchase or truck or hopper loads at best. Moreover, lack of information in regards to the use of new materials and technologies is seen to be one of the major hurdles in their adoption and large scale usage.

Pedestrian red light crossing gap was collected by video cameras and it was assigned as rejected and accepted data to distinguish between normal crossing and violating crossing. Two methods were used to acquire the RLC critical gap. A multiple linear regression model was introduced, and variables revealing personal characteristics, traffic conditions, and trip features were defined as covariates to describe the effects of internal and external factors. The study concluded that Harder's method is good for getting the RLC critical gap and when time gap is larger than 6.12s violations become more and more. The pedestrian RLC time gap is related with weather, age, group size and violating whether at the beginning of red light time, and it is not related with gender, violation stage and other factors.

Using four statistical methods to rank the relative importance of 13 various explanatory data items recorded in NBI, the authors analyzed the frequencies 14 of these items appear in the top 20 of the generated rankings. The frequency analysis 15 results show substantial variations in the frequencies generated for different bridge 16 condition rating items using data from different regions, while some items are 17 consistently identified as important.

abstract = {The U.S. Department of Transportation affirmed the integrated corridor management (ICM) initiative to mitigate traffic congestion on urban corridor networks by systematically leveraging and diverting traffic to better utilize the available capacities of parallel arterials. ICM strategies would be of utmost importance when traffic incidents that may cause significant delays occur on freeways. By effectively diverting upcoming traffic to the adjacent arterials via variable message signs and real-time traveler information systems (e.g., mobile devices), the impact of incidents can be alleviated. To understand fully the effectiveness of ICM strategies, a framework needs to be developed to model, simulate, and analyze ICM operations under different scenarios. This study developed and calibrated a VISSIM simulation model based on field-collected video and sensor data for the South of Downtown area of Seattle, Washington. The analysis aimed to quantify networkwide ICM performance by empirically diverting traffic to adjacent arterials in response to incident management for freeway operations. Multiple scenarios were built into the simulation model to account for different diversion rates as well as recurrent and nonrecurrent congestion situations. When more traffic is diverted into an arterial, the arterial's performance degrades while improvements in travel time and delay for the freeway become marginal. Through quantitative analysis of the delay, throughput, and travel time of freeway segments and the arterial network, the trade-off in the overall system performance was carefully studied and understood. The research findings set up a solid foundation for ICM strategy development and optimization of traffic system operations.},

Extensive data on ridership, station area 40 characteristics, route configuration, transit network connectivity and special generators were 41 collected for modern streetcar lines in Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Washington; and Tacoma, 42 Washington. 43 Regression models were used to measure the influence of different variables on 44 ridership. Three urban streetcar ridership models are presented with adjusted R Squared values 45 ranging from 0.74 to 0.76. Variables found to have a statistically significant influence on 46 streetcar ridership include feeder rail, retail and residential accessibility, distance to closest 47 station, free stations, start-of-line stations, and special generators including hotels, colleges, 48 hospitals and entertainment centers.},

abstract = {1 A test section of railway was installed in Nebraska, with samples taken over the course of three 2 years (1990 to 1993) for sieve analyses. Single-factor analysis of variance tests were used to 3 determine the relationship of measured parameters to the fouling of ballast. Ballast fouling, as 4 measured by the traditional fouling index, increased over time. Fouling was more prevalent in 5 the lower depths of the ballast layer, as well as in the tamping zones. This is because fouled 6 material migrates downward within the ballast layer, and the tamping process increases fouling. 7 Fragmentation fractal analysis was used as a method of classifying the grain size distribution 8 (GSD) of ballast. The average value of the fragmentation fractal dimension increased over time 9 for the entire GSD curve, but decreased for the part of the curve representing the fouled material. 10 Further analysis indicated that the initial GSD of the ballast may not show fractal geometry 11 because of its manufactured nature, but over time the increase in fouling forces the GSD toward 12 a fractal distribution.},

There is a particular need for performance measures that can guide the development of more sustainable transportation systems. This paper describes an effort to apply standardized performance measures in four different metropolitan and rural regions across the United States. Each pilot community was provided with a {\^{a}}€{\oe}Draft Guidebook for Sustainable Community Performance Measurement{\^{a}}€, which lays out data sources and preliminary steps for calculating 17 proposed performance measures. The pilot efforts revealed several consistent challenges to establishing performance measures that can be calculated in a standardized way across multiple geographic regions. First, inconsistencies in data sources across regions, as well as different levels of technical capacity to calculate measures, mean that the accuracy of measures calculated varies from region to region. Second, some of the measures are more appropriate for application in urban areas than in suburban and rural areas. Third, if measures are expected to inform local planning processes, regions understandably want to customize them to reflect their own priorities. Customization results in measures that cannot be compared across regions. Based on these findings, the authors suggest that comparing sustainable community outcomes and trends in regions across the U.S. requires implementing standardized performance measures in a more centralized manner.},

Consequently, capacity is determined assuming that when a signal 4 changes to green, the flow across the stop line increases rapidly to a constant discharge rate. This assumption 5 has been challenged by some recent field observations conduced in Taiwan and USA, which showed marginal 6 increase in queue discharge flow rate as the average headway decreases along the position of queued vehicles 7 towards the back of queue. This paper investigates queue discharge behavior at signalized intersections based on 8 data collected from six signalized intersections in Auckland, New Zealand. These field observations confirm 9 what was observed elsewhere that the saturation flow rate increases with green time. An empirical model is 10 proposed to incorporate this increasing trend in saturation flow rate for capacity and signal timing analysis. A 11 methodology is devised based on Highway Capacity Manual to incorporate the proposed model, which showed 12 prospect to handle the shortcomings of traditional model for practical applications in real world situations.},

Demographic (age, gender, and cycle frequency) and trip purpose information was also collected. Three attributes are analyzed in the model: bridge accessibility to the bicycle network, vehicular volume, and bicycle separation from traffic. Accessibility and bicycle separation significantly impacted bicyclists' behavior, especially for female and infrequent bicyclists as well as for trips where travel time is not a significant issue. Distance was also analyzed and found to be the most significant factor, particularly for time-constrained trips (trips during the peak period and commute trips).

abstract = {In public transport (PT) planning accurate demand data is a crucial requirement. Recently more and more bus operators have introduced the usage of smart cards, which replace cash payments and allow users to load money onto their card. The cards are able to be tagged on-and-off onto a reading device on the vehicle and the customer is charged accordingly. This allows the public transport operator to access a vast amount of information on the trips made by the customers. However, not every bus operator has access to this kind of data, but are using ride and point checks or revenue counts to determine the demand and the resulting loads on the vehicles. These checks are costly and time consuming and are more prone to human error. One question that may be asked is how the quality of the resulting timetables differs when using different methods. This work considers the determination of the daily and hourly maximum load points (which can be determined by point checks) as well as individual maximum load points of the vehicles (which either require ride checks or a automated passenger count system). The timetables based on the different maximum load points are created using a multi-objective approach with the two simultaneous objectives: minimizing the expected passenger waiting time and minimizing the discrepancy from a desired occupancy level on the vehicles. The methodology developed is applied to a case study in Auckland, New Zealand. A detailed analysis of the timetables then reveals if one method is superior to the others and at what extend.

abstract = {6 Due to ADA, public transportation has become a means for people with disabilities to access and get 7 around in their communities. For wheelchair-seated passengers to safely travel on fixed route transit, 8 transit vehicles have been equipped with belt-type wheelchair tiedowns and occupant restraint 9 systems for the past few decades. Surveys among bus operators and wheelchair users found that these 10 time consuming devices are rarely used and cannot be used by wheelchair seated individuals 11 themselves, and prohibit independent travel of these individuals. This paper describes the 12 development of a solution that brings wheelchair-seated travel on public transit to the 21 th century. 13 Implementation of a similar concept will also promote use and improve transit safety for wheelchair-14 seated passengers. 15 16 Background 17 Seniors using scooters or manual wheelchairs, and individuals with disabilities using either scooters, 18 manual or powered wheelchairs comprise a large segment of our population today. According to the 19 US Census Bureau there is an estimated number of 19.2 Million of non-institutionalized individuals in 20 the United States that reported an ambulatory disability in 2008 [1]. In 2006 the National Highway 21 Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported 30 million people in the US that are over 65 years of 22 age and are licensed drivers in the US. In the coming years, it is expected that a larger percentage of 23 elderly will shift their private modes of transportation to a public one. This trend has started to 24 display in many demand response (paratransit) transportation systems. These paratransit programs 25 are trying to promote public transportation among their clientele to reduce the high cost of this ADA 26 mandated demand route transit service. 27 28 For individuals with disabilities, lack of accessible transportation is a key barrier to employment. 29 Elderly individuals utilize public transit mostly for social and medical purposes (doctors visits). In the 30 coming years, it is expected that a larger percentage of elderly will shift their private modes of 31 transportation to public transportation. Although a report from APTA states that 98{\%} of public buses 32 are accessible to wheeled mobility aid users and equipped with a lift or ramp for independent 33 boarding [2], the systems commonly installed on board LATVs can not be used independently by its 34 riders. In the US, wheelchairs and scooters need to be accommodated on LATVs [3]. The ADA and 35 DOT Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49 specifies design requirements for wheelchair passenger 36 stations and associated wheelchair securement systems and occupant restraints to protect wheelchair-37 seated passengers during normal driving and in accidents [4]. 38 39 Especially in fixed route transit these traditional belt-type systems have shown to be difficult to use 40 and require full operator assistance and extensive training to ensure correct and effective securement 41 (Hardin et al. Buning et al.). DOT does not require the use of securement systems or occupant 42 restraint systems on board of large transit vehicles. But to avoid occupant injuries and provide a 43 similar level of safety to wheelchair passengers, best practices in industry strongly recommend a) the 44 use of a wheelchair securement system to prevent passengers from getting injured by moving 45 wheelchairs, AND b) the use of an occupant restraint system to protect the wheelchair-seated 46 passenger from being projected from their wheelchairs. 47 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. Sponsoring Committee: ABE60 -Accessible Transportation and Mobility 2 1 Evidence of the risk of injury to wheelchair occupants is further found in research conducted by Shaw 2 et al. [5] and Songer et al. [6]. Shaw (2000) estimated injury risk using the Fatality Analysis 3 Reporting System (FARS) database and derives an estimate from general population fatality data. He 4 estimated a fatality rate (for wheelchair users using public transit) of .01 injuries per 100,000 miles 5 traveled as a substitute for rate of injury risk. Songer et al. [6] investigated injury risk among 6 wheelchair-seated passengers differently. He conducted a nationwide survey of 596 wheelchair users 7 of which sixty-one percent (61{\%}) reported regularly riding as passengers in public vehicles, and 20{\%} 8 reported that public transportation was their primary mode of travel. Study participants were 9 surveyed on the injury frequency resulting from non-crash situations. Results indicated that these 10 non-crash situations included sudden vehicle braking, sharp turning and quick acceleration. Songer 11 estimated a 520 times larger risk of injury (5.2 injuries per 100,000 miles traveled) for wheelchair-12 seated passengers in public transportation [6]. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 13 (NHTSA) analyzed NEISS data on wheelchair user injuries and deaths associated with motor vehicle 14 incidents that occurred during the period 1991-1995 [7]. Incidents involved vans, passenger cars, 15 buses, ambulances and trucks. Thirty-five percent of injuries or deaths were due to improper or no 16 wheelchair securement (35{\%}), and 17{\%} of these incidents occurred in buses. Other evidence indicates 17 that the lack of proper occupant restraint use is the main cause of injury to wheelchair seated 18 occupants riding in large accessible transit vehicles [8, 9]. Shaw and Frost confirm the need for next 19 generation wheelchair securement and occupant restraint systems that are reasonably safe for the 20 public transit environment and are easy to use and acceptable to wheelchair riders and transit bus 21 operators [9, 10]. 22 23 A recent study done by the RERC on Wheelchair Transportation Safety at the University of Louisville, 24 KY included a retrospective review of on-board video surveillance recordings of wheelchair, scooter 25 and power wheelchair trips on fixed-route transit vehicles. Of 295 video recordings 73.6{\%} of 26 wheelchairs were unsecured during transit and complete use of all four tiedowns was observed more 27 frequently for manual wheelchairs (14.9{\%}) and power wheelchairs (5.5{\%}), compared to scooters 28 (0.0{\%}). Nonuse or misuse (lap belt use only) of the occupant restraint system occurred during 47.5{\%} 29 of WhMD trips. 30 31 Finally, numerous lawsuits have been filed against transit authorities [verbal communications with 32 Drs. Hobson, Bertocci, Frost, van Roosmalen and Mr. Cross, 2011]. The verdicts of these suits are 33 primarily negligence of vehicle operators to correctly secure wheelchairs and restrain wheelchair-34 seated passengers, and negligence of transit management to properly train operators on best practices 35 w.r.t. transporting (wheelchair-seated) individuals with disabilities. Lawsuits are very costly ({\$}500k – 36 {\$}2M) but can be prevented when adopting improved safety systems that are designed for and can be 37 used independently by passengers that stay seated in wheelchairs and scooters. 38 39 These findings support the need for development and implementation of wheelchair-passenger safety 40 systems with improved usability that can be operated independently by wheelchair-seated passengers 41 on board fixed route transit vehicles. 42 43 Another recent study was done as part of the RERC-WTS to investigate traditional wheelchair 44 tiedown and occupant restraint systems (WTORS) and other novel, automatic approaches to improve 45 passenger independence and safety on board transit vehicles. Both bus operators and wheelchair 46 users were surveyed AND observed while riding in a transit vehicle using three different types of 47 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {An iterative method is proposed to estimate bus route origin-destination (OD) passenger flow matrices from boarding and alighting data for time-of-day periods in the absence of good a priori estimates of the flows. The algorithm is based on the widely used iterative proportional fitting (IPF) method and takes advantage of the large quantities of boarding and alighting data that are routinely collected by transit agencies using automatic passenger count (APC) technologies. An arbitrarily chosen OD matrix can be used as the base matrix required to initialize the algorithm, and the IPF method is applied with bus trip-level boarding and alighting data and the base matrix to produce an estimate of the OD flow matrix for each bus trip. The trip-level OD flow matrices are then aggregated to produce an estimate of the period-level OD flow matrix, which in turn is used as the base matrix for the following iteration. The process is repeated until convergence. Empirical results are conducted on operational bus routes using APC data collected during multiple season-years, where directly observed OD passenger flows are available to represent the ground truth. In all cases in which APC data are available for even a reasonably small number of bus trips, the iteratively improved base method produces better estimates than the application of the traditional IPF method when using a null base matrix, which is commonly adopted in the absence of a priori information without updating. Moreover, the algorithm converges in minimal computational time to the same estimates regardless of the initializing matrices used.},

abstract = {A novel parking pricing strategy dependent on real-time sensing is proposed to manage the parking demand. Parking pricing and information provision jointly serve as a dynamic stabilized controller to minimize the total travel time (TTT) of the system. Parking prices are adjusted in real time according to the real-time occupancy collected by parking sensors. All the parking information along with parking prices, is then provided for travelers to make real-time parking choices. We model the optimal parking pricing in the preferred (closer) parking cluster as a stochastic control problem. We take into account two types of randomness, demand uncertainties and user heterogeneity in Value of Time (VOT), both of which can be learned by taking real-time measurements. The optimal parking pricing policies are solved using the dynamic programming approach. There exists a critical occupancy for each time period, and the parking prices should be set effective (by diverting travelers to the farther parking lot) when the up-to-date occupancy is above the critical occupancy. From the numerical experiments, we find that the optimal parking policies based on stochastic control models are promising. They can deal with different demand levels (high, low or unstable) and generally outperform the deterministic pricing schemes. It can approach the minimum TTT in most of the cases as if we know the traffic demand in advance of the commuting time. Providing real-time occupancy information alone without setting proper parking prices, seems useful, but marginal, in reducing the parking congestion. {\textcopyright} 2014.},

abstract = {Transportation planners and engineers alike have identified that drivers' risk attitudes have a significant effect on their route and departure time choices. We utilize methods from experimental economics to elicit risk attitudes through controlled incentivized experiments in driving simulators with actual monetary consequences. This last feature of our design can eliminate hypothetical biases observed in other studies that utilize purely hypothetical questions. We identify risk attitudes by defining simulated route choices as lotteries that may pay some money for sure or different monetary rewards with some uncertainty. We use structural estimation to estimate risk attitudes in our sample and allow for both Expected Utility theory and Rank-Dependent Utility theory. Our econometric approach applies the " contextual utility " correction by Wilcox (2011) to control for " size effects " that have been identified in the estimation of value of time and reliability. Our experimental design allows us to compare risk attitudes across two different regions in the US and study the demographic determinants of risk aversion. We find that, both under Expected Utility and Rank-Dependent Utility, risk attitudes are heterogeneous in our sample and largely explained by subjects' age and accumulated wealth during the experiment. Finally, we find no evidence of a structural difference between the two traffic regions used in this study.},

abstract = {Mixed traffic flow with high composition of motorcycles is a common situation in most of the Southeast Asian countries like India. Motorcycles possess several unique features such as narrow width, small size, high power-to-weight ratio and intuitive steering. All this may lead them to have more freedom in a traffic stream and also perform some characteristic behaviour patterns in mixed traffic flow.  Moreover, mixed traffic is characterized by a mix up of vehicles having diverse static and dynamic properties. This type of traffic is characterized by lack of queue and lane discipline based on availability of space near intersections. At intersections, left, through and right turning vehicles seek to occupy the same physical space. In such situations, the through vehicles are susceptible to delays. Moreover, observation in the field indicates that motorcycles tend to accumulate near the stop line by weaving through gaps during the red phase to facilitate an earlier discharge during the initial period of the green due to its smaller size and high manoeuverability, which reduce other modes' speed and therefore, they may cause congestion at that time. Also, this leads to excess delay for other vehicles while discharging from the intersection.  Many mega cities in Southeast Asia are suffering from a high degree of congestion, which is mostly caused by motorcycles. It is important for these countries to develop appropriate management strategies for motorcycles. Understanding its moving behaviors and modeling them in a more realistic way may help. For this purpose, a microscopic traffic simulation model for signalized intersection developed specifically for mixed traffic was used. This model covers different vehicle types, and allows for some special behaviors, such as seepage to fronts of queues by motorcycles. The model was calibrated and tested with data from Chennai city, India, and its predictions were found to be in close agreement with the field data. This model was used to simulate traffic flow on Exclusive Stopping Space for Motorcycles (ESSM) near stop line. The benefits of ESSM were studied by varying the vehicular composition, traffic volume and ESSM lengths. The findings show that for certain composition, volume levels and length of ESSM, delay to vehicles decreases which shows that ESSM is beneficial for all types of vehicles at intersections.},

abstract = {Trip assignment is still a modelling and prediction challenge. For aggregate analyses, traditional trip assignment approaches may suffice. However, investigations of drivers' choices with respect to network infrastructure changes require more disaggregate and behavioural approach. Effects of critical infrastructure elements in the network on route choice behaviour of the drivers are often crucial to investigate. The case of Montreal is of particular interest since the city, an Island, is completely separated from the rest of the region by two important rivers. Consequently, drivers have to select one of the available bridges to reach their destination. The research relies on a set of observed trips with bridge declaration from a large-scale travel survey conducted in 2008. It is a one-day trip diary reaching some 4{\%} of the residing population and including the bridge chosen in the itinerary for car driver trips. The paper provides a descriptive analysis of the bridges and their usage. An advanced discrete choice model that jointly models choice set formation and final choice is then formulated and estimated using the observed trips. Empirical model correctly identifies effects of travel time interacting with time of day and destination trip purpose. Travellers are more sensitive to travel time during off-peak period. Empirical results show that age, gender and household auto ownership explain the variation of scale parameters of route/bridge choice; for instance, older people show more stable route/bridge choice behaviour than younger ones. Discussion on the performance of the model is provided along with further result analysis and perspectives for further work.},

abstract = {Land development models are often the weakest part of land use transport interaction models. This is partly because decisions on implementing real estate development projects are seldom recorded. In this context, the term project means a prepared plan for creating new space in the form of one or more buildings. Since we are interested in explaining the development of built space using discrete choice modeling, knowing about the decisions on projects would be ideal. However, registers are more likely to have information on existing buildings rather than data on project decisions. If the register contains the year of construction, this can be used as proof of a development decision. Unfortunately, registers do not include information on how many buildings were constructed in the same project. This paper discusses the issue of missing information on projects using parcel-based development location choice models. These models are being used in the implementation of an UrbanSim land use transport model for the Canton of Zurich in Switzerland. The purpose of the development location choice models is to locate development events generated by a transition model to update alternative locations for household and firm location choice models. To discover the effect, if any, of missing information about projects, we compare the parameters estimated on two different databases for each of four development location choice models. One database contains construction projects with multiple buildings, while the other contains only single buildings. Our conclusion is that using building registers is a viable option if no data on development projects is at hand, especially, if there are few projects with multi buildings in the considered area. However, register data often does not contain information on projects, which can lead to biased parameters because the size of the considered development events is too small. 2 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Since the MFD represents the area-wide network traffic performances, studies on 4 perimeter control strategies and an area traffic state estimation utilizing the MFD concept has 5 been reported. The key requirements for the well-defined MFD is the homogeneity of the area-6 wide traffic condition, which is not universally expected in real world. For the practical 7 application of the MFD concept, several researchers have identified the influencing factors for 8 network homogeneity. However, they did not explicitly take drivers' behaviour under real time 9 information provision into account, which has a significant impact on the shape of the MFD. 10 This research aims to demonstrate the impact of drivers' route choice behaviour on network 11 performance by employing the MFD as a measurement. A microscopic simulation is chosen as 12 an experimental platform. By changing the ratio of en-route informed drivers and pre-trip 13 informed drivers as well as by taking different route choice parameters, various scenarios are 14 simulated in order to investigate how drivers' adaptation to the traffic congestion influences the 15 network performance and the MFD shape. This study confirmed and addressed the impact of 16 information provision on the MFD shape and highlighted the significance of the route choice 17 parameter setting as an influencing factor in the MFD analysis. 18 19 Keywords: Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram, pre-trip information, en-route information, 20 microscopic simulation, route choice 21 22 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In light of the necessity of reducing motorized road traffic in Europe, above all in city centers, focus is switching more and more to cycle freight. At present there is little research or systematically prepared findings in this area. This paper demonstrates that the use of cycle freight is already widespread, though restricted to larger cities, which have the density necessary to create demand. The existing firms that use cycle freight operate primarily as pure cycle freight operators. The parallel operation of cargo cycles within fleets of otherwise motorized vehicles has, however, been tried successfully on several occasions. The availability of city center hubs that ensure the necessary efficiency is one of the special requirements associated with the use of cargo cycles. Customers still have reservations, although it may be assumed that these reservations are more a case of initial resistance and could be overcome through information and advertising campaigns. In total, it is expected that around a quarter of city center freight transport could be carried by bike. Bike freight will work only if this mode of delivery is given greater consideration in city and transport planning. Initial estimates indicate that the reduction in air and noise pollution created by cycle-based commercial traffic could be quite significant, although systematic analysis is lacking in this area. To date, there have been no studies on the effects of cycle freight on city center traffic.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015 Springer Science+Business Media New YorkModeling commuters' choice behavior in response to transportation demand management (TDM) helps in predicting the consequences of TDM policies. Although research looking at choice behavior has evolved to investigate preference heterogeneity in response to factors influencing mode choice, as far as we know, no study has considered taste variation across commuters in response to multiple TDM policies. This paper investigates the presence of systematic preference heterogeneity across commuters, in response to the TDM policies that can be explained by their socio-economic or commuting-related characteristics. Analysis is based on results of a stated preference survey developed using a Design of Experiments approach. Five policies were assessed in order to study the impact they had on how commuters chose their mode of transportation. These include increasing parking cost, increasing fuel cost, implementing cordon pricing, reducing transit time and improving access to transit facilities. For the sake of assessing both systematic and random preference heterogeneity across car commuters, a form of the Mixed Multinomial Logit (MMNL) model that identifies sources of heterogeneity and consequently makes the choice models less restrictive in considering both systematic and random preference variation across individuals was developed. The sample includes 366 individuals who regularly commute to their workplace in the city center of Tehran, Iran. The likelihood function value of this model shows a significant improvement compared to the base MNL model, using the same variables. The MMNL model shows that taste variation across the studied commuters results in differences in influences estimated for three policies: increasing parking cost, reducing transit time and improving access to transit. The analysis examines several distributions for random parameters to test the impacts of restricting distributions to allow for only normality. The results confirm the potential to improve model fit with alternative distributions.},

abstract = {Focusing on tourist behavior, this paper develops a nested time use and expenditure behavior model in the context of multi-destination visit, where a tourist visits one or more destinations. In this case, tourists' decisions include, 1) whether to visit a destination or not (destination visit decision), and in case of visiting a destination, 2) how long to stay there (activity time decision), 3) whether to spend any money there (expenditure decision), and in case of spending any money, 4) how much of money to spend there (expenditure level decision). To accommodate the above decision-making mechanism with two discrete and two continuous dependent variables, a nested Tobit modeling technique is first integrated with a multi-linear utility-maximizing time use and expenditure behavior model, and then a pair copula is applied to represent the correlated error structure of the above four dependent variables. Pair copula is a function that can combine different bivariate copulas to represent a joint multivariate distribution, where variables are sequentially incorporated into conditioning sets with a nested tree structure. As a case study, the developed model is estimated by comparing three types of canonical vine copulas: Gaussian, FGM and Frank copulas. First, the model effectiveness is confirmed by using a questionnaire data collected in the Tottori Prefecture of Japan in 2007. Second, it is revealed that the Frank canonical vine pair copula model is superior to other models. Third, it is found that the value of activity time varies considerably with tourists' origins. Finally, influential factors to time use and expenditure behavior are examined.},

abstract = {This study integrates the concepts of relative utility and prospect to represent the context dependence in travel choice behavior by incorporating asymmetric and non-linear responses. Relative utility argues that utility is only meaningful relative to some reference point(s) and it conceptually allows the existence of multiple reference points in a systematic way. Prospect theory argues that people's decisions tend to be more sensitive to losses than to gains, where gains and losses are defined with respect to a reference point, but it has not been concerned about how to specify the reference point(s). On the other hand, even though the concept of relative utility could accommodate nonlinear utility structures, no study has been done to capture the non-linearity caused by people's asymmetric responses to gains and losses. Theoretically, the integrated model can be used to express various types of context dependencies. The effectiveness of the integrated model is confirmed using a stated preference data with 1,872 samples on the joint choice of departure time and driving route under the provision of dynamic travel information, collected in Beijing of China in May 2008. Sensitivity of the model performance to different values of prospect parameters is also analyzed. Influential factors to the choice behavior are also explored.},

abstract = {Lane changing maneuvers could have a substantial influence on traffic flow characteristics as a result of their interfering effect on surrounding vehicles. The interference effect of lane changing is more pronounced when heavy vehicles change lanes compared to when passenger cars undertake the same maneuver. This is due to the physical effects that the heavy vehicles impose on surrounding traffic. This paper investigates and compares the traffic flow characteristics which influence the lane changing behavior of heavy vehicle and passenger car drivers on freeways under heavy traffic conditions. A trajectory data set comprising 28 heavy vehicle and 28 passenger car lane changing maneuvers is analyzed in this study. The results suggest a substantial difference exists between the traffic characteristics influencing the lane changing behavior of heavy vehicle and passenger car drivers. Heavy vehicles' speed changes little during a lane changing maneuver. Heavy vehicle drivers mainly move into the slower lanes to prevent obstructing the fast moving vehicles which approach from the rear. However, passenger car drivers increase their speed according to the speeds of the lead and lag vehicles in the target lane. They more commonly move into the faster lanes to gain speed advantages.},

ABSTRACT Transport applications usually require a network description to map collected data, to simulate traffic, or to analyze routing or traffic demand spreading through an area. Many applications are developed to support these tasks, and all of them are using a different network definition and require different input files. This leads to a lot of redundancy in data storage, fragmented data availability, and problems in data acquisition. This paper introduces a model free network standard that is able to cater for the needs of various applications, and build a solid basis for a transport data hub, which could be utilized as a single source of data access for road authorities. The standard has been integrated with a research framework for simulation, a commercial simulation package, and a visualization tool to demonstrate its potential.

abstract = {The goal of this paper is to identify how different land use development policies, such as policies that promote Transit Oriented Development (TOD), impact travel demand patterns and change Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. TOD land uses are typically assumed to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and emissions, while also reducing trip lengths and increasing transit and non-motorized walk and bicycle trips. Although increases in transit and non-motorized modes of travel reduce overall emissions, changes to trips made by auto modes may have a differential impact on emissions, as these types of trips may have a higher rate of emissions generation depending on the impacts to auto speeds caused by TOD. Park-and-ride to transit trips, while providing a benefit for shifts from auto to transit travel, also contribute emissions and these trips may not be accounted for in most existing model-derived emission estimates, therefore it is important that TOD strategies determine the impact that these trips have on emissions. The integration of emissions and land use modeling within the framework of a four-step travel demand model  provides a method for local planning agencies to estimate detailed GHG emissions, including emissions caused by vehicle types. A case study of this integrated methodology applied to a multimodal transportation corridor plan, the Grand Boulevard corridor in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties California, is presented. Mixed-use TOD policies, increasing the density of both housing and jobs together as opposed to increasing the density of housing or jobs separately, resulted in the best reduction in emissions relative to base case conditions. While here was overall a decrease in emissions for all scenarios, emissions increased for the truck and park-and-ride vehicle trip markets across virtually all TOD scenarios evaluated. The results from the evaluation of the TOD scenarios provide local planning agencies information for developing policies that consider various transportation and land use strategies and the associated impacts on GHG emissions mitigation.},

Model results consistently showed that nonauto transportation infrastructure diversity and quality were the most important aspects of smart growth patterns that affected the choice of nonauto travel modes. Moreover, housing mix in a neighborhood increased the likelihood of choosing walking and cycling for daily work trips and daily nonwork trips. The socioeconomic diversity of a neighborhood reduced the likelihood of choosing walking and cycling for daily nonwork trips. The remaining two factors—residential density and mixed use—insignificantly affected travel mode choice. Overall, people living in smart growth neighborhoods in Los Angeles do travel smarter, in that they use environmentally more sustainable (bus and train) and healthier (walking and cycling) travel modes.},

Fang – Skateboarding as a mode of transportation: Review of regulations in California 1 ABSTRACT 1 2 Skateboarding, most commonly thought of as a recreational activity, can also be used as an 3 active travel mode. Recreational skateboarding also often occurs on transportation facilities. 4 Thus, skateboarding is a phenomenon of interest to transportation planners and decision makers 5 and a target for policy actions. A review of California cities and college campuses show that 6 regulations on skateboard travel and riding on transportation facilities are common. Regulations 7 most frequently prohibit skateboarding in certain areas, but are also often written to restrict 8 certain behaviors on a skateboard. While the presence of any regulation is common, the specifics 9 of the regulations vary, resulting in inconsistent and sometimes contradictory regulations from 10 city to city. Justifications for regulations, although not always stated, include concerns over user 11 safety, safety of nearby pedestrians, damage to property, behavior, interference to nearby 12 business, and creation of a nuisance. Current regulations may be an impediment to the use of 13 skateboards for active travel, especially when they target recreational skateboarding, but are 14 written such that they affect all skateboarders. To encourage skateboarding as a mode of active 15 travel, further evaluation of the actual characteristics and behavior of skateboarders may be 16 necessary to create appropriate regulations that address legitimate issues without hindering 17 innocuous use.},

abstract = {There has been continuing interest among transportation planners, economic development specialists, and private industry about the relationship between the demand for industrial space and the level of freight transportation activity. With the growing importance of logistics and supply chain economics for many industrial and business activities, firms organizing their industrial activities and locating their warehousing and operational centers increasingly must consider the availability, quality, and cost of a range of transportation services, particularly in connection with essential intermodal activities. Accordingly, development of major logistics parks in conjunction with major intermodal hubs has become an important element in the overall industrial economy, predicated on the notion that robust freight activity is a good indicator of demand for industrial space. In this study, using regression techniques, we examine the relationship between freight transportation activity and industrial space demand at the metropolitan area level. The results confirm this relationship, reflecting significant statistical association between higher levels of freight traffic and higher levels of industrial space demand. This relationship is more pronounced in inland versus port markets. In addition, the data reveal that there was a shock to industrial space demand in 2001, thereby altering the structural relationship between demand and the drivers of demand. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

The paper 6 examines the circumstances and motivations for accessors and shedders to join a carshare, 7 changes to their travel behaviour in the short and longer run and how their behaviour might 8 have changed if they had not joined. This is achieved through in-depth interviews of 16 9 members of a carshare in the city of Bath in the UK. The members interviewed were selected 10 to achieve a mix of accessors and shedders and recent and longstanding members. It is found 11 that the carshare attracted those already contemplating giving up their car or triggered to 12 consider giving up their car ownership by life events. Joining a carshare prevents acquisition 13 of cars for some members but some subsequently take opportunities to acquire cars as 14 circumstances change. Once shedders become members it is found they adapt to managing 15 without a personal car and use a variety of transport modes, planning their activity-travel 16 schedules in advance and taking into account costs and convenience of different options. The 17 increasing popularity of new mobility options such as carsharing also has implications for the 18 methods used to analyse and model travel behaviour.

abstract = {Advanced fuel economies in both traditional internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEs) and electric vehicles (EVs) have a strong influence on transportation revenue by reducing fuel consumption per vehicle and ultimately drawing down the amount of fuel tax revenue received. It is expected that more electric vehicles, especially gasoline hybrid electric vehicles, with higher fuel economies than ICEs will enter the roadway in coming years, and fuel tax revenues and the Highway Trust Fund will increasingly become more affected. This study estimates the impact that increased sales of EVs will have on future fuel tax revenues by drawing on industry estimates of future EV market shares and anticipates future fleet mix and fuel economy. An estimation process overview is provided and assumptions are described. Fuel tax revenue amounts that would be expected from future light vehicle fleets with increased shares of EVs are compared to equally sized fleets comprised of all ICEs, and future fleet mixes are estimated. Results show that as more electric vehicles enter the light vehicle fleet, greater revenue losses are expected and total losses from years 2011 through 2050 depend on fleet composition and fuel economy. Finally, it is found that the amount of fuel taxes paid by ICE drivers each year remain greater than fuel taxes paid by EV drivers even with advances in the average ICE vehicle fuel economy. TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. Hall, Walton, and Jin 2 INTRODUCTION AND MOTIVATION Encouragement to increase sales of electric vehicles (EVs) comes from various motivations such as reducing US oil dependence for national security, realization of the harmful impacts of greenhouse gas emissions from traditional internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEs), and economic competitiveness and desire to be a leader in technological advancements. Whatever the motivation, it is true that consumer interest and sales of EVs has increased in the past decade. As more EVs hit the road, transportation officials are watching to see how these vehicles, with the potential to have greatly advanced fuel economies, will impact transportation funding through the federal fuel tax. Already, traditional ICEs are becoming more fuel efficient and revenue from the fuel tax is not keeping pace with roadway funding needs. With the introduction of electric vehicles, this trend becomes more exacerbated. The primary focus of this study is to investigate how electric vehicles with more advanced fuel economies will impact federal fuel tax revenue by calculating fuel consumption reductions to be expected with higher shares of EVs in the light fleet and then estimating fuel tax revenue losses. In this paper, an overview of the federal fuel tax is given, estimation process and data are described, and resulting future fleet mixes and expected fuel tax losses are presented for five scenarios. The years of interest in the study are from 2011 through 2050, and information about market projections for electric vehicles come from industry reports, which make projections forsales during this time period. Federal Fuel Tax Since 1932 the Federal government has placed an excise tax on gasoline. At its inception, the asoline tax rate was 1 cent per gallon, and vehicle fuel economy of highway vehicles was likely below 13 miles-per-gallon according to earliest found data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA)(1). Although the fuel tax has been in place since 1932, it was not directly tied to highway funding until the creation of the Highway Trust Fund in1956. Since1932 the gas tax has been raised numerous times with the latest increase in 1993—an increase from 14.1 to 18.4 cents per gallon. Nearly twenty years later, no additional increases in the gasoline tax have been made, and efforts to generate support in favor of either raising the gas tax further or indexing it to the dollar value of gasoline have been unsuccessful. Early data from the EIA for passenger vehicle fuel economy, gasoline consumption, and vehicle miles traveled (VMT) was found for year 1949; the data shows an average light fleet fuel economy of 15 MPG, 9,388 average VMT and 627 gallons of gasoline consumed per vehicle in that year (1). Calculating the average cents-per-mile rate paid per vehicle in 1949 and adjusting for inflation shows that the average driver of a passenger car paid 1.3 cents per mile traveled (reported in 2010 dollars). In comparison, in 2010 with increased average VMT per vehicle and fuel economy advances, an average driver paid 0.8 cents per mile. It is expected that without changes in the structure of transportation funding, that the ratio of cents paid to miles driven will decrease even more.},

This paper reports a fundamental work from various 5 aspects to study the speed synchronization behavior of the merging vehicle by tracking their 6 trajectories on the merge-related lanes. By classifying the merging vehicles into “Original 7 Gap” type and “Overtaking” type, the existence of the speed synchronization during the lane 8 change preparation stage is proved by comparing the speed difference between the merging 9 vehicle and PL (putative leader) /PF(putative follower) at different locations. After this, a 10 synchronization rule of the merging vehicles is constructed. The merging vehicles tend to 11 maintain a speed which is 5{\~{}}7 m/s higher than the speed of PL to overtake unsatisfied 12 current gap on the adjacent main lane. When they meet an acceptable gap, they would take a 13 two-step strategy to merge into main lane. Then, the effect of the speed difference between 14 merge vehicles and PL/PF on the gap selection are concluded, which is that higher speed 15 difference leads to gap rejection. Finally, the absolute speed difference between merging 16 vehicle and PL/PF are modeled using multi-regression method. The number of rejected gaps 17 by merging vehicles, the merging vehicles' speed synchronization direction (acceleration or 18 deceleration), the speed difference between PL and PF, the time headways, the distance from 19 merging vehicles' current location to the end of the auxiliary lane and the vehicle type of PL 20 of merging vehicles are found to have significant effects on the speed difference tolerance.},

abstract = {Heavy-duty trucks are a critical component of the U.S. goods movement system; however, they consume a large amount of fuel and emit significant pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. The trucking industry is always looking for any measure to improve their operations and reduce fuel consumption, including efficient routing. Many existing fleet management and routing systems are based on minimizing total miles traveled which does not necessarily minimize fuel consumption or emissions, particularly under congestion and in areas having significant changes in road grade. In this paper, we describe new Eco-Friendly Navigation (EFNav) algorithms that were developed specifically to minimize fuel consumption and emissions from heavy-duty trucks. An EFNav mesoscale model was developed from a rich set of truck energy and emissions data collected by UC-Riverside's heavy-duty Mobile Emissions Laboratory (MEL) and a robust data set simulated for a wide range of operating conditions using CE-CERT's heavy-duty truck energy and emissions model. The mesoscale model is the basis of the EFNav routing algorithm and provides a more accurate projection of fuel use than the standard average speed based estimation by accounting for vehicle mass and road grade. A prototype implementation of the eco-routing system was performed for a heavily loaded class-8 heavy-duty truck. It was shown that the navigation system, with real-time traffic information, was able to estimate projected fuel use to within 7.5{\%} over the test routes and simulation work showed that the variance in fuel use between an empty and fully loaded vehicle was as much as 240{\%} over the selected route.},

The application of the 8 framework is illustrated with a simple case study. We also present a preliminary analysis to 9 demonstrate how the roadway topography and condition can affect the dynamics of the system 10 vulnerability.

ABSTRACT 1 Climates are changing throughout the world, including on a regional level in North 2 America. It is likely that changes to four aspects of the climate will cause the greatest impacts to 3 transit infrastructure and operations: intense precipitation, very hot days and heat waves, rising 4 sea levels, and storm (e.g., hurricane) intensity. Climate changes will affect the way 5 transportation professionals manage their multimodal transportation infrastructure. A region or 6 city's ability to adapt their vulnerable transportation infrastructure and operations to climate-7 related impacts will determine the resilience of that community's transportation system. 8 Federal agencies have led the way in adapting many transportation modes to climate changes. A 9 literature review and analysis of current activities and a survey of 300 transit agencies found that 10 focus at the transit agency level was on mitigation of climate change by reducing greenhouse gas 11 emissions. However, transit agencies are facing impacts caused by current weather conditions 12 and by future climate change. The review highlights 17 agencies conducting climate adaptation 13 activities, mostly as part of federally-funded pilot projects. The online survey focused on 14 gathering information such as whether the agencies were involved in climate change adaptation 15 activities, which activities they have or are currently engaged in to assess potential impacts of 16 weather and climate change on their facilities and operations and the relative importance of 17 different resources to effectively assess these impacts. The most common barriers to conducting 18 activities seems to be a lack of funding, lack of access to information and tools (including 19 regional-scale data) and lack of organizational priority. 20 KEYWORDS: Climate Change, Transit, Adaptation, Vulnerability 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

In order to assist governments make appropriate decisions to enter PPPs that are in the best 4 interest of taxpayers, this paper develops a general framework for evaluating the long-term leasing of toll roads. 5 The two main decision criteria, the economic efficiency of privatization and the protection of public interest, 6 are investigated. Economic efficiency is analyzed using an uncertainty-based Net Present Value (NPV). 7 Further, a case study of the Indiana Toll Road lease is carried out. The NPV calculated using Monte Carlo 8 simulation demonstrates that government is not likely to earn as much benefit as the upfront payment lease 9 amount if it continued its in-house management of the toll road. Sensitivity analysis in terms of revenue and 10 cost factors is also conducted. Further, a " break-even " analysis is conducted to examine the conditions under 11 which the government would obtain as much benefit as it did from the privatization. Finally, the actions taken 12 by the Indiana government attempting to protect the interest of Indiana citizens and toll road users are 13 discussed.},

abstract = {This paper estimates the effect of highways on land prices using the implementation of the west branch of a large beltway around Sao Paulo Metroplitan Area. This is a unique opportunity since the beltway is being implemented by branches. So, it is possible to use the zones surrounding the branches where construction has actually started as a treatment group to be compared with zones surrounding branches for which construction has not started yet. Since we have a proxy for land price data before and after construction, it is possible to estimate the impact by difference-in-difference. The evidence is that there are significant and asymmetrical effects caused by the highway construction. Parcels located close to ramps on the west side of the track observed an increase in price faster than similar zones close to other (planned) branches. For parcels located on the east side of the beltway, relatively far from the track (between 2.5 km and 5 km), the effects of construction and delivery/operation faced a (relative) decline in land prices. These results have consequences for transportation finance; betterment levies and value capture taxes; and welfare},

Hwang, Reuscher, Wilson and Murakami 2 ABSTRACT Non-motorized travel (i.e. walking and bicycling) are of increasing interest to the transportation profession, especially in context with energy consumption, reducing vehicular congestion, urban development patterns, and promotion of healthier life styles. This research project aimed to identify factors impacting the amount of travel for both walk and bike trips at the Census block group or tract level, using several public and private data sources. The key survey of travel behavior is the 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) which had over 87,000 walk trips for persons 16 and over, and over 6000 bike trips for persons 16 and over. The NHTS, in conjunction with the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, street density measures using Census Bureau TIGER, WalkScore{\textregistered}, Nielsen Claritas employment estimates, and several other sources were used for this study. Stepwise Logistic Regression modeling techniques as well as Discriminant Analysis were applied using the integrated data set. While the models performed reasonably well for walk trips, travel by bike was abandoned due to sparseness of data.},

abstract = {The scope of this paper is to develop an advanced stated preferences (SP) survey customized to capture teenagers' behaviors and to estimate models of hybrid mode choices, in which the utilities depend on both the attributes of the mode and the latent variable willingness to walk or cycle. The SP scenarios include four alternative modes for the trip to school-car (escorted by parents), bus, bicycle, and walk-while the attributes are travel time; travel cost; walking time to the bus station; availability of bike paths, sidewalks, and parking places; and weather conditions. The data are drawn from a survey that took place in all the high schools of Cyprus in 2012. The sample consists of 4,174 teenagers (ages 12 to 18) and covers 8.7{\%} of the total high school population. For the model estimations, 8,348 SP observations are used. It was found that the existence of bike paths and wide pavements significantly affect the choice of active transport. The latent variable enters significantly into the specification of the choice model to assure that unobserved variables should be implemented in the choice process. Willingness to walk and to cycle has a positive effect on the choice of those alternatives and a negative effect on the choice of a car. Moreover, parents' level of education and mode use patterns and habits influence the development of attitudes toward mode choice. The results of the study provide insights on policies and campaigns that may help the next generation develop greener travel behavior.},

abstract = {Most passenger rail services in the United States (U.S.) operate on corridors that are shared with freight traffic. As the demand for passenger and freight transportation grows and emphasis is placed on increased speed and on-time performance of passenger services, the available capacity becomes even more consumed. Where higher speed passenger trains are mixed with freight, the increased heterogeneity from expanding speed differential creates further challenges for reliable operations. Based on the experiences in the other parts of the world, the required reliability is typically secured through structured/planned/scheduled operation. As the U.S. continues to develop higher speed passenger service with similar characteristics to those in European shared-use lines, the accuracy of capacity analysis methods becomes more important, and tools applied in Europe may become more applicable to the U.S. conditions as well. This paper presents the fundamental facts on railway capacity obtained through the literature review. It will provide a brief review of capacity definitions used in both Europe and the U.S., followed by description of differences in their respective rail systems. The paper will also introduce the various types of approaches for capacity analysis and review several case studies in the U.S. and Europe that use those approaches.},

These findings were based on an internal study conducted by Polk. The study also indicated that if repurchase behavior among the high volume audience of Toyota Prius owners wasn't factored in; hybrid loyalty would drop to under 25{\%}. This news release has generated a lot of interest and concern by the automobile industry as well as consumers, since it was published, and caused many to think about the idea of hybrid loyalty as well as factors that influence consumers. Most reactions to the 35{\%} hybrid loyalty dealt with concerns of the viability of hybrid technology as part of the solution to address transportation energy challenges. This paper attempts to shed more light on Polk's hybrid loyalty study as well as explore several information sources concerning hybrid loyalty status. Specifically, major factors that might impact the selection and acquisition of hybrid vehicles are addressed. This includes investigating the associations between hybrid market shares and influencing factors like fuel price and hybrid incentives, as well as the availability of hybrid models and other highly fuel efficient vehicle options.

Both data sets included average speeds, 13 probe counts, and the standard deviation for each time interval for various time periods. 14 15 In order for these datasets to be useful to state and local agencies, they were conflated with 16 Kentucky's existing highway network. Both of the datasets were linked to networks that differ 17 from the state's Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) network. There is a need to 18 link the purchased data to the state's network as it contains attributes critical in developing 19 performance measures. 20 21 The usefulness of the private sector speed data relied greatly on the success of the conflation 22 process with the state's HPMS data. In order to derive performance measures from the data, 23 several state-owned attributes were needed (such as traffic volumes and highway type). It was 24 found that the TMC network provided more reliable descriptive statistics as compared to the 25 link-based network which used free-flow speeds in records with no probe data. Free-flow speeds 26 are useful as a secondary estimate for travel times for navigation, but not for performance 27 measures. Conversely, the coverage of the link-based network was significantly more prominent 28 than that of the TMC-network. 29 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

However, they cannot accurately 51 capture the number of empty trips that result as a consequence of moving these commodities. Previous 52 research has proposed a number of methodologies to incorporate empty trips as a function of loaded trips 53 and some assumptions about the trip chains. Parameters in these models are calibrated with extensive 54 origin-destination surveys. However, freight transportation data is usually scarce or not properly available 55 for models. This paper presents a novel methodology to estimate the number of empty trips based on a 56 time expanded network flow approach that captures behavioral and operational characteristics of the 57 carriers. The model is formulated as a linear optimization problem that minimizes the system costs 58 associated to truck trips. The model is validated with a commercial vehicle survey from Colombia. The 59 results show that under some operational assumptions, the model appropriately represents the amount of 60 empty vehicle-hours in a freight transportation network. 61 62 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This paper presents a novel approach for allocating containers to storage blocks in a marine container terminal. We model the container terminal as a network of gates, yard blocks and berths on which export and import containers are considered as bi-directional traffic. For both export and import containers, the yard blocks are the intermediate storage points between gates (landside) and berths (waterside). Our model determines the route for each individual container (i.e. assign the container to a block to be stored) based on two competing objectives: (1) balance the workload among yard blocks, and (2) minimize the distance traveled by internal trucks between yard blocks and berths. The model utilizes an ant-based control method. It exploits the trail laying behavior of ant colonies where ants deposit pheromones as a function of traveled distance and congestion at the blocks. The route of a container (i.e. selection of a yard block) is based on the pheromone distribution on the network. The results from experiments show that the proposed approach is effective in balancing the workload among yard blocks and reducing the distance traveled by internal transport vehicles during vessel loading and unloading operations. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {The accurate modeling of travelers' route choice decision making when faced with unreliable (risky) travel times is necessary for the assessment of policies aimed at improving travel time reliability. Compared with econometric models, process models have not been investigated in travel decision making under risk. A process model aims to describe the actual decision making procedure and could potentially provide a better explanation to route choice behavior. A process model, the priority heuristic (Brandstatter et al. , 2006), is introduced to the travel choice context and its probabilistic version, the probabilistic priority heuristic (PPH) model, is developed in this study. With data collected from a stated preference survey, a rank-dependent expected utility (RDEU) model and two other alternative models are compared with the PPH model through cross validation. Results showed that the PPH model outperforms the RDEU model in both data- fitting and predictive performances. This suggests that the process modeling paradigm could be a promising new area in travel behavior research. Major drawbacks of the PPH model include the discontinuity of the choice probability with respect to outcomes and associated probabilities, the limited applicability in situations where one alternative dominates or almost dominates the other, and the non-trivial extension to multiple-alternative situations.},

abstract = {1 Incidents, pre-programmed or random, are major sources of congestion on urban freeways. With many 2 urban freeways in the United States operating close to capacity, the need to reduce the impact of incident-3 related congestion has become critical. Incident Management Strategies (IMS), when properly developed 4 and deployed, have the potential to reduce such urban congestion. The problem addressed in this paper 5 deals with the question of dynamically finding alternate paths in a given network when a section of the 6 network is temporarily incapacitated because of incidents. Instant knowledge of such alternate paths with 7 surplus capacities may enable Traffic Management Centers (TMC) to efficiently divert traffic from the 8 affected portion of the network, thereby helping alleviate congestion. As a part of this effort, the authors 9 adapted a micro-simulation model AIMSUN to assess the impact of deploying IMS's on an urban 10 network. This paper deals with a major focus area of this study, calibration of the micro simulation model. 11 Calibration of the proposed model is demonstrated on a heavily traveled portion of an urban 12 network in the Detroit metropolitan region. The network contains two freeways in the north-south and 13 east-west directions (Interstate 75 and Interstate 696) instrumented with various ITS devices, and a 14 number of major arterials. The model calibration process is conducted in two separate channels. Initially, 15 the model is calibrated without any incident data. Upon completion of no-incident calibration, the model 16 is further validated with incident data. Travel time and traffic volume data (in 5 minute increments) were 17 obtained from sensors installed by the Michigan Department of Transportation at strategic locations on 18 the two freeways. A set of statistical tests are reported that shows excellent correlation between the 19 observed data and the model output. The calibrated model with extensive field data may be used as a tool 20 to assess the traffic consequences of various IMS's. 21},

In the past years, several algorithms were developed to obtain the 5 homogeneous sections; however, there are currently no practical or widely acceptable guidelines 6 on the issue of how to choose and apply the algorithms properly. The most relevant previous 7 studies involving pavement segmentation algorithms were reviewed and their findings reported. 8 From the engineering point of view, some algorithms are difficult to implement in pavement 9 management practice due to issues related to data transformation, complicated calculations, time 10 consumption, or additional software required. The deflection measurements obtained from two 11 sections in the United Kingdom were analyzed with seven algorithms to verify their 12 effectiveness and efficiency including parameter sensitivity, data pretreatment and post treatment 13 to ensure the requirements of both statistical significance and engineering practice.

abstract = {3 State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) today are seeking financing alternatives so 4 that transportation infrastructure investments can become less dependent on the amount of fuel 5 U.S. drivers consume. Because the fuel tax in its current form is no longer viewed by many as a 6 sustainable and stable option, other financing alternatives are being considered. One such 7 alternative includes the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) fee. Examples of such VMT fee 8 alternatives include: 1) collection using an onboard diagnostic system (OBD); 2) collection at the 9 fuel pump using an OBD in conjunction with GPS technology; and 3) collection at a vehicle 10 inspection station using the OBD. 11 The primary objective of this paper is to evaluate these three VMT fee alternatives in 12 terms of their benefits, challenges, and suitability for consideration in Massachusetts. A major 13 conclusion is that a fuel tax, if increased and indexed to inflation, is a viable short term financing 14 approach and that a VMT fee should be considered further as part of a long term strategy. It is 15 expected that the results of this research will be of interest to State DOT personnel and policy 16 makers seeking new financing approaches and revenue streams to support transportation 17 investments. 18 OBJECTIVE OF THE PAPER 19 The primary objective of this paper is to evaluate three vehicle miles traveled (VMT) fee 20 alternatives in terms of their benefits, challenges, and suitability for consideration in 21 Massachusetts.

Until recently South African research 3 into agent-based modeling of traffic behavior mainly focused on commuters travelling between 4 home and work. Although the models accurately predict travel times, people in the real world 5 travel for a number of reasons other than work, such as going to school or going shopping. 6 Agent-based models are often criticized as being data intensive, both in developing and 7 developed countries, and consequently limited work has been done relating to secondary 8 activities. In this paper we show how open data, in the form of OpenStreetMap, is used to 9 enhance existing traffic models. We demonstrate how, in an agent-based setting, the model 10 responds in a realistic way using shopping and leisure facility data in the Nelson Mandela 11 Metropolitan in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. This is achieved by extending an existing 12 agent-based model and providing agents with more realistic spread of behavioral responses, in 13 this case a choice of facilities where secondary activities such as shopping and leisure can take 14 place. 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

An increasing number of jurisdictions have passed Complete Streets policies that formalize that community's intent to plan for, engineer, construct and maintain transportation facilities that serve, automobiles, transit, bicycles, pedestrians and freight. The multimodal infrastructure these policies encourage has the potential to improve the quality of life for groups traditionally underserved by automobile oriented development, also called the transportation disadvantaged.  However, very few of these policies directly acknowledge the importance of serving the transportation disadvantaged. This study profiles three communities that have prioritized walking, biking and transit investments that serve these populations: the Sault Ste.

abstract = {This paper presents a comparative analysis of bus emissions associated with a variety of fuel types, specifically for developing countries. A large data set of in-use transit bus tests is compiled for commonly regulated transportation emissions including carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. Carbon dioxide is included to help in understanding greenhouse gas emissions. A meta-analysis technique is used with 25 studies to find a range of emissions values for various fuel and exhaust aftertreatment combinations to determine which combinations provide the greatest emissions reduction. The fuels considered are diesel with various concentrations of sulfur, biodiesel (100{\%} and 20{\%} blend with diesel), compressed natural gas, liquefied natural gas, and ethanol. The standard internal combustion engine, the internal combustion engine-electric hybrid, and a variety of exhaust aftertreatment technologies are considered. The analysis shows that no single fuel is best for reducing all emissions if the appropriate exhaust aftertreatment technologies are used. The technologies showing the lowest emissions in important categories (nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and carbon dioxide equivalents) are compressed natural gas with a three-way catalyst, 100{\%} biodiesel, and ultralow sulfur diesel with selective catalyst reduction. Other factors, such as altitude, drive cycle, and mileage, also affect emissions values. A wide range of emissions values is found, even for the same fuel and technology. The variations and factors should be understood for accurate evaluation of results from further emissions testing.},

abstract = {Potential evacuees without access to personal automobiles are expected to use transit, especially buses, to reach safer regions. For a transit agency, operation problems to be considered include establishing bus launch areas, positioning the minimum number of required buses, and coordinating transit operators, especially determining whether the number of drivers will be sufficient to cover the number of vehicles (i.e., buses) to be used during the evacuation. It is also highly probable that during an emergency, absenteeism rates for bus drivers might increase. In this study, the authors developed two stochastic models to determine the need for extra drivers during an emergency evacuation and to provide optimal solutions using well-established concepts in mathematical programming. First, the authors reviewed the literature to develop an effective methodology for the development of optimal extraboard management strategies. The authors found that although several recent reports clearly mentioned the problem of not having enough bus drivers during emergency evacuation operations, no analytical study incorporated the optimal extraboard size problem into emergency evacuation operations. Second, two mathematical models are presented in this paper. The aim of the developed models is to fill the gap in the literature for determining optimal extraboard size for transit operations during emergency evacuations. The models are specifically designed to capture risk-averse behavior of decision makers. Finally, these models were tested with hypothetical examples from real-world data from New Jersey. Results show that both models give reasonable extraboard size estimates, and under different conditions, these models are responsive to the changes in cost and quality of service preferences. The results are encouraging in terms of the models' usefulness for real-world applications.},

Simulation results show both models are capable of capturing individual 21 departure time adjustments and the aggregate peak spreading effects. The eventual patterns in 22 departure time shirt look similar in both models, showing that the difference in dynamic network 23 supply model has not affected the overall performance of integrated models. The computing time 24 on the TransModeler model is significantly longer due to its microscopic nature. This 25 disadvantage in computing efficiency is compensated by its strength in tracking individual 26 vehicles and modeling details in vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-infrastructure interactions. Both 27 models are sensitive to changes in pricing strategies. More research efforts are needed to get a 28 better understanding of the performance of integrated models under different scenarios.},

Argonne National Laboratory undertook some simple experiments to provide a preliminary factual basis for recommendations on when to keep the engine on, and when to turn it off, for the minimum environmental impact. Our previous work demonstrated that idling is a very inefficient way to warm up your car, and that the catalytic converter cools slowly enough that it will still be working when you return to your car after a short stop. The argument against parking and going into a business, rather than using a drive-through window, has been that the emissions and fuel use associated with restarting your car are greater than those incurred by idling for that time. Argonne undertook a series of measurements to determine whether this was true by comparing actual idling fuel use and emissions with those for restarting. This work seeks to answer the question: Considering both fuel use and emissions, how long can you idle in a queue before impacts from idling are greater than they are for restarting? Fuel use and carbon dioxide emissions are always greater for idling over 10 seconds; the crossover times are found to vary by pollutant.},

Findings suggest that aggressive drivers (with 51 small response times and jammed spacing) are responsible for spontaneous formations of 52 oscillations. Furthermore, aggressive drivers tend to exhibit large clockwise hysteresis loops, 53 which instigate the transition from precursor to well-developed oscillations that propagate in 54 space. Once formed, the oscillations exhibit four development stages: precursor, growth, stable, 55 and decay stages. Each stage is characterized by distinct hysteresis orientations (e.g., clockwise 56 vs. counter-clockwise loops) and magnitude. Oscillations grow significantly in amplitude in the 57 precursor and growth stages in which clockwise hysteresis is prevalent.

We develop a maximum-likelihood negative binomial model to examine how various spatially defined variables, including road, income, and vehicle ownership, may be associated with casualties using census block-group level data. Due to suspected spatial correlation in the data we also employ a conditional autoregressive Bayesian model using Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation, implemented with Crimestat software. Results suggest that spatial correlation is an issue as some variables are not statistically significant in the spatial model. We find that both pedestrian and motor vehicle casualties are greater in lower income block groups. Both are also associated with less household vehicle ownership, which is not surprising for pedestrian casualties, but is a surprising result for motor vehicle casualties. Controls for various road categories provide expected relationships. Individual level data is further examined to determine relationships between the location of a crash victim and their residence zip code, and this largely confirms a residual effect associated with both lower income individuals and lower income areas. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

The focus of this study is to contribute to incorporating this aspect within current activity-based modeling frameworks. Data from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey of the United States are used in this analysis. The empirical scope of this study is limited to two-adult two car households in the context of social-recreational tours; however, this methodology can be directly extended to other cases as well. An exploratory analysis indicates that the “primary driver” variable is perhaps the strongest predictor of the vehicle allocated to independent tours and tours made by adults with children. In the case of joint tours, there is clearly a choice of vehicle to be made. Following the exploratory analysis, two models were developed. One allocates each vehicle to a primary driver in the household (long-term, household-level model). The second allocates a vehicle for the joint tours (short-term, tour-level model). Both models were estimated using the unlabeled binary-logit methodology. Several vehicle attributes (such as size/body type, fuel efficiency, age, and operating costs) and socio-economic variables (age, and presence of children) were estimated to be statistically-significant predicators of the vehicle-allocation patterns.},

The objective of these PVMSs is to provide drivers with adequate warnings related to severe weather conditions (e.g., fogs, dusty, rainy) and critical areas such as construction zones and school crossings. The effectiveness of PVMSs in Abu Dhabi has not been evaluated yet in any perspective. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of PVMSs on driver speeding behavior on rural highways. The study adopted a longitudinal approach and involved the collection of vehicular speed and classified volume data. Data collection were performed in three stages: 1) Without PVMS, 2) PVMS was installed and relaxation period was given to ensure the road users become familiar with PVMS; 3) With PVMS. Approximately half of a million vehicular data were collected at the study location. The descriptive and analytical statistical methods were used to compare speed data for the first and third stages. Results showed that there is no significant difference between mean and 85th percentile speeds for before and after installation of PVMS. PVMSs were found to be effective though statistically not significant (p-value {\textgreater} 0.005 at 95{\%} confidence level) in reducing driver's speeds on rural highway in Abu Dhabi. Further, the proportion of vehicles speeding excessively (i.e. vehicles traveling over the posted speed limit) was slightly decreased by the use of PVMS.},

abstract = {Modern traffic signal controllers usually must adapt to local transportation agency requirements. The standardization of controller hardware under advanced transportation controller standards provided flexibility and allowed customized development of controller software. This process resulted in a multitude of market controller software features that are a challenge to evaluate. A decision-support system based on a multi-criteria decision-making technique for the evaluation of traffic signal controllers is presented. The method for evaluating the controllers was based on the set of critical functional requirements for signalized intersections. The method was developed for a signal system at the Virginia Department of Transportation. The critical functional requirements were developed through discussion with professionals in the field of signal system operations across North America. Criteria for scoring the controller features were developed from the information obtained from the controller manuals, vendors, software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop testing, survey of agencies, and so forth. An evaluation of three controllers within the proposed framework is presented, along with decision-support visualization aids. Alternate methods are suggested for evaluation purposes and give opportunities for further research.},

abstract = {There is considerable evidence that roundabouts are the safest and most efficient form of traffic control for most intersections. The potential use of roundabouts with all their inherent benefits may be greatly diminished if they are not able to accommodate oversize/overweight (OSOW) vehicles, sometimes called "Superloads." The problem, therefore, is how to accommodate OSOW vehicles without sacrificing the integrity, safety and other benefits of roundabouts.This study uses TORUS software to design six standard roundabouts using guidance from the latest Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) roundabout guide. Six OSOW check vehicles from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation's library were used to modify the designs to accommodate these selected check vehicles at the roundabouts. These six OSOW check vehicles were used to conduct swept path analysis using AutoTURN software at the selected six standard roundabouts for right turn, through, and left turn simulations. The space requirements for these maneuvers were analyzed in detail. Various strategies for better accommodating these OSOW check vehicles were suggested and experimented with in this study using AutoTURN software simulations. The effectiveness of using a straight passage through the center island for OSOW vehicles was also addressed in this study and was found to be effective. All the strategies investigated in this study proved to be effective in accommodating OSOW vehicles when compared to conventional ways of using a roundabout. The needed total truck apron was calculated and used as a reference to determine an effective strategy for accommodating OSOW vehicles. This research can be used as guidance for transportation engineers, planners and decision makers to determine possible ways of designing a roundabout at an intersection where certain OSOW vehicles are expected.},

The findings presented here are the result of the first study of this type and scale in the United States. We limit our scope to the examination of the relationships between consumer expenditures and trip making behavior, including mode of travel and frequency of trips. This analysis is guided by the following objectives: 1) quantifying the various transportation mode shares of customers for a variety of business types, locations and transportation contexts; and 2) comparing levels of consumer spending and frequency of visits by travel modes. This analysis made use of intercept surveys of local business completed at 78 establishments in the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area. Ordinary least squares regression models were estimated to investigate the factors related to expenditures per trip at different establishment types. The findings support the notion that customers that arrive by modes other than the automobile are competitive consumers. They spend similar amounts or more, on average, than customers arriving by automobile. They are also more frequent patrons on average, potentially presenting a unique marketing opportunity for these businesses. Business perceptions against non-automobile infrastructure provision should be lessened by the findings of this research, and public agencies can use the results presented here to help communities understand the economic benefits related to investing in bicycling, walking, and transit.},

abstract = {In China, motor vehicle emissions have been identified as the major source of urban air pollution. Thus, estimation of emissions and their impact on air quality is necessary. Vehicle emissions vary strongly with region and depend on local vehicle operation and emission performance. This paper uses the MOVES (Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator) model, released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, for the estimation of vehicle emission factors in Shanghai, China. To achieve a convincing emission result, vehicle operation is extracted from massive taxi Global Positioning System (GPS) data, and the emission inventory from MOVES is revised according to China's vehicle emission standards. In addition, deterioration factors are calculated on the basis of vehicle condition. Comprehensive emission factors are generated for Shanghai light-duty vehicles at various average speed levels. The results indicate that emission factors for hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen of in-use light vehicles in China are 0.1 to 0.25 g/km, 4 to 7 g/km, and 0.4 to 0.8 g/km, respectively. These amounts are 15, 1.9, and 5.9 times higher than those in the United States, respectively. By 2012, the Environmental Protection Bureau had established 10 monitoring sites in Shanghai and released data for real-time concentrations of particulate matter less than 2.5 urn in diameter, particulate matter less than 10 urn in diameter, nitrogen dioxide (NO(2)), and sulfur dioxide to the public. On the basis of the new release of data, a field study estimating near-road air quality was conducted with MOVES and the air dispersion model AERMOD. The concentration result shows that the accuracy of near-road NO(2) estimation is improved with taxi GPS data and the revised MOVES emission inventory. The study explores the extended application of MOVES by offering a procedure for applying MOVES in non-U.S. regions.},

The final model results indicate that the TriMet 12 model does a better job explaining the variation in ridership at the stop-level; the adjusted-R2 is 13 0.69, compared to 0.61 for the LTD model, and 0.53 for the RVTD model. Land use 14 characteristics around transit stops do have significant effects on transit ridership, though these 15 effects are much smaller than the effects of transit level of service. Socio-demographic 16 characteristics seem to have a larger effect on ridership in the large urban area than small urban 17 areas (TriMet: 24{\%} vs. LTD and RVTD: 11{\%}).

This proposed model has two major differences from other regional commercial vehicle models in the US, which include: 1) this model is stratified by commercial vehicle type and trip purpose jointly, instead of being stratified by vehicle type only, and 2) this model employs the discrete choice modeling technique, instead of using a traditional gravity model. With this technique, non-impedance variables were able to be tested for inclusion in the utility function of the model. It was found that, second only to travel time, inter-county crossing and inter-area-type dummy variables, especially the latter, are statistically significant and can add additional explanatory power to the model. The model estimation results also indicate the model fits the data well with likelihood ratio index () values ranging from 0.24 to 0.32. This research effort demonstrates that a destination choice model stratified by both vehicle types and trip purposes can be successfully developed and employed for modeling commercial vehicle trip distribution.

abstract = {This paper examines a way to synthesize route travel time probability density functions (PDFs) on the basis of segment-level PDFs. Real-world data from 1-5 in Sacramento, California, are employed. The first finding is that careful filtering is required to extract useful travel times from the raw data because trip times, not travel times, are observed (i.e., the movement of vehicles between locations). The second finding is that significant correlations exist between individual vehicle travel times for adjacent segments. Two analyses are done in this regard: one predicts downstream travel times on the basis of upstream travel times, and the second checks for correlations in travel times between upstream and downstream segments. The results of these analyses suggest that strong positive correlations exist. The third finding is that comonotonicity, or perfect positive dependence, can be assumed when route travel time PDFs are generated from segment PDFs. Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests show that travel times synthesized from the segment-specific data are statistically different only under highly congested conditions, and even then, the percentage differences in the distributions of the synthesized and actual travel times are small. The fourth finding, somewhat tangential, is that there is little variation in individual driver travel times under given operating conditions. This is an important finding, because such an assumption serves as the basis for all traffic simulation models.},

Using data on US metropolitan areas, this paper traces the links from transit service to central city employment density, urbanised area employment density and population; and from these physical agglomeration measures to average wages and per capita GMP. Significant indirect productivity effects of transit service are found. For example, in the case of central city employment density, estimated wage increases range between {\$}1.5 million and {\$}1.8 billion per metropolitan area yearly for a 10 per cent increase in transit seats or rail service miles per capita. Firms and house- holds likely receive unanticipated agglomeration benefits from transit-induced densifi- cation and growth, and current benefit–cost evaluations may therefore underestimate the benefits of improving transit service, particularly in large cities with existing transit networks},

At present, it is unknown which of these methods or any combination of these methods is capable of efficiently collecting safety-related roadside feature data while minimizing cost and safety concern. The objective of this research is to identify required roadside feature data for various types of highway segments and to characterize the capability of existing sensing methods in contrast to required roadside feature data through literature review and a nation-wide survey, and large-scale field trials of selected sensing methods. The results of literature review and surveys are reported in this paper. The findings of this research suggest that either mobile LiDAR or the combination of video/photo log method with aerial imagery method is capable of collecting required HSM-related roadside information. However, due to the high data reduction effort, the current mobile LiDAR method needs significant improvement in the LiDAR data processing and feature extraction stage.},

Travel survey data from the Twin Cities metropolitan area (which includes the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul) is used for the analysis. Travelers are classified into two groups based on the ratio of perceived and estimated commute travel time. The measures of network structure are estimated using the street network along the identified commute route. T-test comparisons are conducted to identify statistically significant differences in estimated network measures between the two traveler groups. The combined effect of these estimated network measures on travel time is then analyzed using regression models. The results from the t-test and regression analyses confirm the influence of the underlying network structure on the perception of travel time.},

abstract = {Automatic vehicle identification (AVI) systems are increasingly used for the collection of traffic data in urban and freeway networks. Several methods have been proposed for the estimation of travel times from AVI data, mainly for freeways. The problem of estimation of travel times in urban networks was examined. The main difference between freeway and urban networks is that urban network AVI data are often extremely noisy. A major part of that noise is attributed to vehicles that do not traverse the monitored section directly but stop for various reasons. A mixture model was proposed to capture the underlying states of the measurements of AVI travel times in urban areas. The hypothesis was that travel times are drawn from two (or more) populations, one representing normal movement through the network and one representing vehicles that stop for whatever reason. The method was applied with AVI data (collected through a system for automatic recognition of number plates) from a number of corridors in central Stockholm, Sweden. The model was estimated as a mixture of two lognormal distributions, and bootstrap standard errors were calculated. The results illustrate the robustness of the method and its ability to identify the underlying distribution of the latent populations consistent with the characteristics of each route, while standard methods for outlier removal fail.},

abstract = {Accessibility is traditionally considered to be a property of a point or region in space, and to be invariant over time (or at least over some computationally convenient time interval). However, a location's accessibility can vary over time on a wide range of scales. This temporal variation is especially significant for schedule-based transportation systems. Current integral measures of ac- cessibility generally reflect the accessibility only at points in time corresponding to the departures of one or more trips; accessibility between these time points remains unconsidered and undefined. Consequently, these measures are insensitive to changes in route frequency and the distribution of trip departure times. Furthermore, these approaches ignore the disutility experienced by a system user who is limited to departing or arriving at scheduled times rather than at preferred times. As a result, they systematically overestimate the accessibility experienced by users of scheduled trans- portation systems. This paper establishes new methods for representing the accessibility provided by a schedule-based transportation system from a specific location as a continuously-defined acces- sibility function (CDAF) of desired departure time, defined for all time points. Using schedule and route information from metropolitan transit providers, applications of these methods are demon- strated to gain new insight into the accessibility provided by real-world transportation systems. Four examples are developed to represent common service types in metropolitan transit networks. The results confirm that accessibility is significantly overestimated by measuring single points and show that trip frequency is more valuable for sustained accessibility than high accessibility on individual trips.},

This paper 23 describes the program's quantitative evaluation approach, with a focus on a model the NTPP 24 Working Group developed, and provides insights and lessons learned for peers. 25 Demonstrating the benefits of walking and bicycling investments has been an ongoing 26 challenge for communities across the country. A model that uses annual nonmotorized count data 27 to estimate mode share changes and avoided vehicle miles traveled (VMT) is described for the 28 consideration of peer communities, metropolitan planning organizations, and other entities 29 interested in quantifying the community-wide impacts of investments in nonmotorized 30 infrastructure and programs. Additionally, this paper invites other communities to follow, adapt, 31 and improve the model that the NTPP used in order to move the field forward and evolve its 32 active transportation performance measures. 33 Bookend counts in each of the communities estimate that between 2007 and 2011, 34 bicycling and walking increased 67 percent and 31 percent respectively in the pilot communities. 35 Based on these counts, the model estimates that between 2007 and 2011, people walked or 36 bicycled nearly 72 million miles instead of driving, saving over three million gallons of gas. This 37 number of avoided vehicle miles traveled reflects new bicycling and walking trips added to the 38 levels assumed for 2007 and controls for population growth from 2007 to 2011. This finding 39 supports one of the underpinnings of the NTPP program: that by improving nonmotorized 40 transportation networks, more people will choose to walk and bike for transportation},

abstract = {Travel time is viewed by both travellers and road managers as one of the key qualities of service 3 indicators. However, a relatively limited number of technologies are available that can measure travel 4 times. Bluetooth detectors have recently emerged as a viable technology for acquiring vehicle travel 5 times. A number of studies have been published describing the technology and comparing the measured 6 travel times to travel times obtained via another technology. However, most of these studies have focused 7 on the application of Bluetooth detectors to freeway environments for which measurement errors tend not 8 to be significant. In this paper we examine the application of Bluetooth detectors to acquire arterial travel 9 times. The arterial environment is substantially more challenging as a result of the frequent interruptions 10 in the traffic flow caused by the operation of traffic signals. 11 In this paper we examine the magnitude of detection time and travel time measurement errors. It is 12 not feasible to use field data to examine the measurement error because the error is inherent within the 13 observations and cannot be separated. Consequently, we propose an evaluation framework that combines 14 micro traffic simulation with Monte Carlo simulation to synthesize measurement errors for a range of 15 arterial traffic conditions. The results show that the mean travel time error is essentially zero for all 16 traffic conditions. However, the variance of the error varies as a function of the traffic conditions. We 17 develop a multivariate regression model to quantify the standard deviation of the travel time measurement 18 error as a function of the traffic factors, and, using this model show that under some conditions, the 95{\%} 19 confident interval of the travel time measurement error may reach 25{\%} of the true mean travel time. 20 These results can be used to assess potential Bluetooth detector deployment plans and provide insight into 21 the upper bound on the reliability of arterial travel time measurements obtained from Bluetooth detectors.

abstract = {Electric vehicles (EV) have received much attention in the last few years. Still, they have neither been widely accepted by commuters nor by organizations with service fleets. It is predominately the lack of recharging infrastructure that is inhibiting a wide-scale adoption of EVs. The problem of using EVs is especially apparent in long trips, or inter-city trips. Range anxiety, when the driver is concerned that the vehicle will run out of charge before reaching the destination, is a major hindrance for the market penetration of EVs. To develop a recharging infrastructure, it is important to route vehicles from origins to destination with minimum detouring when battery recharging/exchange facilities are few and far between. This paper defines the EV shortest-walk problem to determine the route from a starting point to a destination with minimum detouring; this route may include cycles for detouring to recharge batteries. Two problem scenarios are studied: one is the problem of traveling from an origin to a destination to minimize the travel distance when any number of battery recharge/exchange stops may be made. The other is to travel from origin to destination when a maximum number of stops is specified. It is shown that both of these problems are polynomially solvable and solution algorithms are provided.},

abstract = {33 34 Serving two-way traffic in a single-way path is needed in some circumstances. When traffic 35 demands are low, vehicles in two opposing directions may share a single-way path without 36 much problem. With the demands increasing, however, the possibility of conflict is getting 37 larger and eventually conflict becomes unavoidable. In case of no signalization, the following 38 scenario is considered in this paper that opposing traffic arriving at both ends of a single-way 39 path negotiates, based on the first-come-first-serve rule, to avoid unsolvable conflict within 40 the path. In particular, a latecomer has to wait at her entry of the path until an early bird from 41 the other entry and possibly some of its followers to first go across the path. Consequently, a 42 queue may build up behind the latecomer. When traffic demands get even bigger, alternating 43 queues are expected at either entry of the path. This paper examines the probability that 44 typical conflict occurs in this scenario as well as average queueing delay resulting. 45 Mathematical analysis is conducted also to reveal basic features of alternating queues. The 46 obtained theoretical results are crucial for decision-making concerning the usage of a single-47 way path to serve two-way traffic in case of needs.

In this study, a computer vision-based software tool, Rapid Traffic Emission and Energy Consumption Analysis (REMCAN), is developed to enable a rapid operating mode distribution profiling for the MOVES model. The video-based system provides traffic activity inputs, including vehicle speeds and acceleration and deceleration rates covering the entire vehicle fleet; these may be difficult to extract from traffic data collected by traditional methods. The REMCAN system architecture and vehicle parameter extraction methods are presented. The speed measurement, which is the most critical factor for operating mode profiling, is calibrated with a coefficient that converts screen space to real-world space. Three case studies with different traffic operation scenarios are tested to demonstrate the capability of the REMCAN system. The integration of REMCAN traffic activity data collection and MOVES operating mode distribution generation provides timely, low-cost, and accurate environmental impact assessment compared with traditional data sources for emission estimation analysis.},

abstract = {Queue spillbacks are a major problem in urban signalized arterials because such spillbacks can lead to gridlock and excessive delays. Several methods based on fixed-location detector data have been proposed to identify the occurrence of queue spillbacks and implement signal control strategies to mitigate their impacts. This paper presents two queue spillback detection methods based on connected vehicle (CV) or probe data. The first method requires only the use of CV data and is based on the notion that nonequipped vehicles in queue that arrive after the last CV-equipped vehicle can be modeled by using a geometric distribution. The second spillback detection method combines CV data with information about the signal settings at the upstream intersection and is based on a kinematic wave theory of traffic. The authors also developed a signal control strategy to mitigate queue spillbacks once they were detected. The proposed queue spillback detection methods and alternative signal control strategy were tested through simulation on a four-signal segment of San Pablo Avenue in Berkeley, California. The results show the penetration rate thresholds of CV-equipped vehicles required for accurate queue detection. The proposed signal control strategy improved traffic operations for the upstream cross streets without compromising traffic operations on either direction of the arterial traffic and substantially reduced the variation of the queue length on the critical arterial link.},

The model comparisons are then carried out using time-dependent data, of two very different types: vehicle trajectory data, and single-loop sensor data. The study of these PDE models is carried out in a macroscopic sense, i.e., continuous field quantities are constructed from the discrete data, and discretization effects are kept negligibly small.},

Spatial and temporal link travel time correlations are both considered in the proposed solution, which is based on a dynamic programming approach. In particular, the spatial correlation is represented by a Markovian property of the link states, in which each link is assumed to experience congested or uncongested conditions. The temporal correlation is manifested through the time-dependent expected link travel time given the condition of the link traversed. The framework enables the use of a route guidance system, in which at any decision node within a network, a decision can be made on the basis of current traffic information about which node to take next to achieve the shortest expected travel time to the destination. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the computational steps involved in the framework to make route choices and to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution.},

abstract = {The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency has adopted a performance goal of 60{\%} to 80{\%} occupancy for their metered parking. The rule represents an heuristic performance measure intended to reduce double parking and cruising for parking, and improve the driver experience. In this paper, we study the data collected as part of the SFpark pilot and evaluate the implications of the occupancy rule. We confirm the finding of others indicating that the probability a driver finds available parking on the block where s/he is destined tracks with average occupancy until about 85{\%}‐90{\%}, after which the system breaks down and the chances of finding a spot deteriorate rapidly. We also find that the relationship between occupancy and the probability of finding a space is sensitive to the duration of the averaging period, i.e. the hourly average occupancy is a better predictor of finding a spot than is occupancy averaged over a longer period such as a few weeks. In addition, using occupancy data for five minute time periods, we develop a lower bound on the arrival rate for each block. Using the arrival rates we run simulations to estimate the expected number of blocks a driver must cruise before finding a space, and some preliminary evidence for impacts of SFpark over one year},

abstract = {In Under-saturated conditions, delay minimization and bandwidth maximization are the two main objectives that are used to optimize traffic signals in arterial networks. Targeting one or both of these objectives may not result in effective operations during oversaturated conditions. In order to possibly maintain optimal states of traffic during over-saturated conditions or transitions between unsaturated and over-saturated conditions, control strategies should be developed and formulated based on an integrated criterion that combined throughput maximization, delay minimization and queue management through a multi-objective analysis framework. This paper provides a closed-form formula for the control plan scheduling problem assuming three regimes of operation during an oversaturated control situation: loading, processing, and recovery. The formulation identifies the optimal timing plans for different control objectives in each regime and the optimal point to switch from one plan to the next, which is not typically addressed in traditional signal timing optimization tools. The impacts of switching points on network critical routes travel time were assessed. The simulation results of Post Oak network show significant improvements due to the application of the proposed timing procedure. In particular, the test case also revealed that throughput maximization control during the loading regime provides the network with extra reserve capacities on the critical routes which improves total performance versus other combinations of control objectives.},

Gay men living in a neighborhood of affinity -- those with a high percentage of coupled gays and lesbians -- take shorter work and non-work trips. The mix of local activity sites and social connections results in some gay men conducting a substantial share of their lives within these neighborhoods and nearby. These results are independent of the design or density of the neighborhood. The authors do not, however, find similar results for lesbians, perhaps because they have less residential mobility. Gay and lesbian neighborhoods of affinity represent the kinds of supportive communities where local travel is possible for many activities, behavior that planners seek with so many public policies.},

abstract = {The study of the relationship between macroscopic traffic parameters, such as flow, speed and travel time, is essential to the understanding of the behaviour of freeway and arterial roads. However, the temporal dynamics of these parameters are difficult to model, especially for arterial roads, where the process of traffic change is driven by a variety of variables. The introduction of the Bluetooth technology into the transportation area has proven exceptionally useful for monitoring vehicular traffic, and Bluetooth data is now being used for travel time estimations and as a novel approach for studying traffic demand. In this work, we propose an approach based on Bayesian networks for analyzing and predicting the complex dynamics of flow or volume, based on travel time observations from Bluetooth sensors. The spatio-temporal relationship between volume and travel time is captured through a first-order transition model, and a univariate Gaussian sensor model. The two models are trained and tested on travel time and volume data, from an arterial link, collected over a period of six days. To reduce the computational costs of the inference tasks, volume is converted into a discrete variable. The discretization process is carried out through a Self-Organizing Map. Preliminary results show that a simple Bayesian network can effectively estimate and predict the complex temporal dynamics of arterial volumes from the travel time data. Not only is the model well suited to produce posterior distributions over single past, current and future states; but it also allows computing the estimations of joint distributions, over sequences of states. Furthermore, the Bayesian network can achieve excellent prediction, even when the stream of travel time observation is partially incomplete.},

Unlike under-saturated conditions, operation 45 of traffic signal systems during congestion requires careful consideration and analysis of the underlying 46 causes of the congestion before developing mitigation strategies. This paper presents an application of a 47 new oversaturation timing strategy (OTS) in a congested arterial network. The OTS employs the 48 principles of oversaturation timing (i.e., prevent spillback into upstream intersections and prevent 49 starvation at downstream intersections in cycle length selection, splits allocations, and offset design 50 along with critical routes protection. Microscopic simulation results of the arterial test case revealed that 51 traffic control strategies developed using the proposed framework led to significant improvement of 52 system performance when compared to signal control strategies designed for operations in under-53 saturated conditions. Each of the generated control plans includes series of timing plans with different 54 control objectives. These control plans successfully manage the queues along the network links. The 55 developed control plans apply both internal metering by allocating queues on links with extra reserve 56 capacities, and external metering by holding traffic outside the network preventing demand loading on 57 the network from reaching critical levels. It also revealed that applying capacity maximization on early 58 stage would provide extra reserve capacities to the critical routes unlike delay minimization control that 59 balances the queues formations on all network links. 60 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This paper argues for two main points. First, in principle, the causal effect of a countermeasure as defined in the HSM, and counterfactual prediction as used in clinical analysis of individual crash events, can be viewed as different methods for estimating the relative fraction of crashes, preventable by the countermeasure, within a crash population. The accuracy of counterfactual prediction requires that the estimation of crash features produced in a crash reconstruction be consistent, which can be interpreted as a requirement that the reconstruction methodology be well-calibrated. Second, it is possible to make falsifiable predictions using microscopic crash simulation models, so the claim that these models are inherently unscientific is unfounded. Since, at the present state-of-art, microscopic models are better-suited to predicting characteristics of a population of crashes, rather than overall crash frequencies, testing and criticizing these models will require information at a finer level of detail than is typically available in computerized crash records. Since the effect of a countermeasure can vary depending on local conditions, using an aggregated, average estimate may be locally misleading. Structural models are better at predicting modification effects than they are at predicting crash frequencies, so one line of future research could be into the usefulness of a “mechanistic-empirical” strategy, where regression models, similar to the HSM base models, are used to predict event frequencies, while structural models are then used to classify the events},

GHG emission rates are generated from Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model and approximated as a function of the average link travel speed. To model uncertainty, the link travel speed is treated as a discrete random variable with a given distribution. Freight carriers are assumed to be risk-averse, which is captured by the second order stochastic dominance (SSD) relationship. The reliable freight routing model is formulated as an integer program that can be easily tailored to a variety of modelling preferences. The study experiments with eight variants of the base model, each corresponding to a different trade-off strategy between the three objectives, namely, efficiency, reliability and emission cost. The main findings from the numerical experiments are (1) modelling emission as a constraint seems more appealing due to the difficulty of estimating monetary value of emission cost; (2) the feasible set, hence the optimal solution, depends on the type of SSD constraints (time or emission), as well as the choice of the benchmark; and (3) avoiding risks in the SSD sense could increase the total cost by up to 20{\%} in a real network.},

This study develops a framework to evaluate the impact of policies for EV uptake. Using the city of Sydney, Australia, as a case, the framework utilizes a system dynamic model that explicitly incorporates the life cycle of vehicles, consumer preferences, impact of infrastructure on choice, positive cascading effect on choice due to increased penetration of EVs as well as feedback effects of advertising. It was found that the EV uptake predicted by the model was the most sensitive to the capital and operational cost of the vehicle, based on which five policies were identified that would affect these variables. Finally, a cost benefit analysis was conducted to evaluate the policies. It was found that the government subsidy of 70{\%} on electricity rates for charging electric vehicles was the most cost effective. Though this framework was used in Sydney, this methodology provides planners a tool through which they can evaluate policies related to uptake of new vehicle technologies},

Beijing is considered the most motorized city in China, and the consequent air pollution and congestion are stark. However, despite worsening conditions and rising prices, owning a car is often portrayed as a natural expectation, or even requirement, for rising middle class Chinese. Prior studies suggest that the desire for cars is a values-based perception, influenced by desires for social status and materialistic aspirations, rather than an instrumental desire. Through semi-structured interviews, this study explores the life aspirations and values of post-80's generation white collar workers, and how important car ownership is to them. While all interviewees express desire to own a car at some point, the motivations for doing so were quite different. Men felt a significant pressure from women and society to ‘provide', which includes having a car. Women all saw having a car as necessary, but not because of prestige or status. Overall, the assumption by these rising middle class Beijingers is that owning a car is an expectation rather than a luxury. Strong value associations with driving already exist, independent of driving experience, suggesting the role of advertising and peer conformity. Almost no ‘rational thinking' weighing mobility options occurred, but thinking was highly emotionally coded.},

abstract = {North American transit agencies have made large investments since the late 1990s in the coordination of bicycling and public transit services. A key goal in doing so has been to increase transit ridership by extending the geographic area from which riders can easily and quickly reach transit stops and stations. While it is widely hypothesized that being able to travel on transit vehicles with bicycles allows riders to access transit stops and stations from a larger geographic area, the empirical evidence of this is scanty. Information available for Northeast Ohio, where the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (GCRTA) operates rail, bus and demand response transit, presents an opportunity to address an important aspect of this issue. The availability of detailed long-term bicycle-on-bus boardings (BoBBs) data and the implementation of a series of service reductions in 2008, 2009 and 2010 offer an opportunity to ask the question: Do significant changes in geographic access to transit services result in significant changes to the numbers of cycle-transit users accessing transit buses? The evidence from GCRTA[U+05F3]s service area provides some support for this conclusion, with the rates of utilization of bus bicycle racks increasing significantly over time and in slightly higher numbers for routes that saw the largest reductions in bus transit service. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Most transportation research related to motor carrier rates has focused on the cost determinants of long-term carrier contracts for specific lanes. However, with the emergence of third-party logistics (3PL) providers in the U.S. following deregulation in the 1980s, a significant amount of capacity for shipments is secured via spot market transactions. Carrier rates for shipments with even the same origin and destination can vary widely between transactions in this scenario. This research investigates the factors behind this occurrence and identifies the major determinants of carrier costs in spot market transactions at both the individual shipment and the more aggregate lane level. Additionally, it also explores a tactical planning scenario in which a 3PL provider addresses chronic fiscal underperformance on certain lanes. The research has found that factors such as distance, characteristics of the shipping lane and the required truck type are among the most important determinants of motor carrier rates at both the shipment and lane level. Also, seasonality and overall market conditions play a major role in determining rates for truckload shipments. The study then goes on to show that the results of the cost determinant analysis may be used to set better baseline prices on underperforming lanes.},

abstract = {1 The objective of the research is to study optimal routing policy (ORP) problems and to develop an ORP algorithm 2 practical for large real-life networks, where a traveler could revise the route choice based upon en route information. 3 The routing problems studied can be viewed as counterparts of shortest path problems in deterministic networks. A 4 routing policy is defined as a decision rule that specifies what node to take next at each decision node based on realized 5 link travel times and the current time. The existing routing policy algorithm is for explorative purpose and can only be 6 applied to hypothetical simplified network. In this research, important changes have been made to make it practical in 7 a real-life network. Important changes in the new algorithm include piece-wise linear travel time representation, turn-8 based, label-correcting, and dynamic blocked links. We then study complete dependency perfect online information 9 (CDPI) variant in a real-life network (Pioneer Valley, Massachusetts). Link travel times are modeled as random 10 variables with time-dependent distributions which are obtained by running Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) using 11 data provided by Pioneer Valley Planning Commission (PVPC). We give a comprehensive explanation of the changes 12 by comparing the two algorithms and an in-depth discussion of the parameters that affects the running time of the new 13 algorithm. We then carry out computational tests on the running times changing with different parameters and present 14 the summary of its effectiveness. This research is also a good starting point to investigate strategic route choice models 15 and strategic route choice behavior in a real-life network. The major tasks are to acquire data, generate time-adaptive 16 routing policies, and estimate running time of the algorithm by changing the parameters. The research contributes 17 to the knowledge base of ORP problems in stochastic time-dependent (STD) networks by developing an algorithm 18 practical for large-scale networks that considers complete time-wise and link-wise stochastic dependency.},

In this paper, besides the socioeconomic vari-5 ables, both local and regional transport network development and accessibility growth are 6 considered to isolate the impacts on the changes of land use types brought by different 7 sources of accessibilities.

Focus-9 ing on the land typologies which shift the land use types during the studied years, we find 10 that the growth of regional accessibility by the inauguration of new high speed rail lines is an 11 important incentive which may lead to the upgrade of land occupation.

Using both passive observations and self-reported surveys mainly from college students in Vancouver, Canada, it found that the majority of passengers used their time actively instead of doing nothing. Most of the observed active activities are associated with the usage of smart devices. Although the possession of smart devices is prevalent, only a small portion of passengers (less than a third) actually use them during travel. A variety of environmental and trip factors, personal attributes, and past experiences influence the usage of smart devices, but only explain the variation marginally. Research also found that the usage of smart devices encourages multitasking both at bus stops and on buses. Smart phones are the most conducive to multitasking, followed by iPod/MP3 players, and iPads/tablets.},

abstract = {1 This paper addresses a new traffic assignment problem with mode and route choices for the emerging 2 need of modeling traffic networks that accommodate electric vehicles. Two transportation modes (or 3 vehicle types), gasoline and electric vehicles, are exclusively included in the problem, which distinguish 4 from each other in terms of the driving distance limit and travel cost composition. A convex programming 5 model is proposed as a modeling tool for evaluating such mixed-mode traffic networks that are 6 anticipated to exist for a long period in the electrified transportation era. Our focus in this paper is on the 7 computation and evaluation of this mixed-mode traffic assignment problem's solutions. In particular, we 8 developed and implemented two competitive solution algorithms: one is a linear approximation algorithm 9 of the Frank-Wolfe type, which allows for a parallel treatment of O-D pairs and a one-to-all constrained 10 shortest path procedure for path generation; another is a quadratic approximation algorithm that makes 11 use of the Gauss-Seidel decomposition to deal with O-D pairs in a sequential manner and generate paths 12 by a one-to-one constrained shortest path procedure. Our experimental results from applying these 13 algorithms for a number of synthetic and realistic networks clearly show that, from the model behavior 14 perspective, the produced mode-route flows replicate the anticipated travel choice pattern, and, from the 15 solution efficiency perspective, the relative competitiveness of the two algorithms depends on the 16 required solution precision. 17},

abstract = {The purpose of this study is to extend the research on gendered differences in travel patterns in the Arab world by an in-depth study of the interrelationship of travel-related activities and various socio-economic and demographic characteristics. This study is based on a unique data set that includes activity and travel diaries collected from three Arab communities in the Galilee region of Israel. Through descriptive statistics and nonlinear structural equations modeling, we found that gender plays an important role in both activity participation and travel behavior in these communities. Women tend to travel less than men in terms of both number of tours, defined as chain of trip segments that start and end at home, trips, and total time spent traveling. Women tend to work more within their communities and to conduct more of their activities by walking; they are also the ones who make more child-serving stops, which affect their travel patterns. Women tend to travel by car more as passengers, whereas men tend to be drivers. Those who made more tours also tended to make more complex tours, with more stops per tour, although, in general, complex tours are not substituted for making additional tours. People who work outside the community and make complex tours are more likely to drive, as the car is needed for these types of trips, which men make more than women. From a policy perspective, these findings suggest that public transportation services are needed to help overcome gender differences in travel behavior. Improving transit service for school trips and improving urban design through a friendlier environment, especially for children, will beneficially affect the complexity of women's daily activity patterns and their quality of life.},

It demands an approach which can simulate the details of continuously changing 7 city logistics characteristic in efficient way and coin emergent behaviour of the dynamically changing city logistics 8 activities. This methodology should be able to help understand undergoing changes of system which in turn create 9 knowledge base about the system and its emergent behavioural processes for generating appropriate solutions of the 10 problems associated with distributed decision making. This paper describes the modelling of city logistics covering 11 strategic and tactical decision at logistic level whilst operation decision at distribution level using agent technology. 12 The paper attempts to show the potential of agent technology in evaluating policy measures to reduce negative 13 effects of city logistics domain. The architecture of the model enables the understanding of decentralized decision 14 making of urban freight stakeholders and provides the decision makers with a useful tool to assess holistically the 15 impacts of policies related to urban freight domain. Moreover, with modularity and extendibility it is possible to 16 expand the model for real-life scenario.},

abstract = {The eco-routing problem concerned in this paper addresses the optimal route choice of eco-drivers who aim to meet an emission standard imposed by regulators, while trying to find the path with the minimum total operating cost, which consists of both travel time and fuel costs. The paper first develops fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions estimation models that link emission rates to a vehicle's physical and operational properties. Unlike most studies in the literature, the emission model developed in this paper retains as many microscopic characteristics as feasible in the context of route planning. Specifically, it is able to approximate the impacts of major acceleration events associated with link changes and intersection idling, and yet does not require detailed acceleration data as inputs. The proposed eco-routing model also explicitly captures delays at intersections and the emissions associated with them. Using a simple probabilistic model, the impacts of different turning movements on eco-routing are incorporated. The proposed model is formulated as a constrained shortest path problem and solved by off-the-shelf solvers. Numerical experiments confirm that vehicle characteristics, especially weight and engine displacement, may influence eco-routing. The results also suggest that ignoring the effects of turning movements and acceleration may lead to sub-optimal routes for eco-drivers. ?? 2013 .},

However the investment goals cannot be fully 4 achieved until transit services are efficiently delivered, for which a good 5 understanding of transit demand is critical. Transit demand analysis proves a very 6 challenging task in fast growing Chinese cities partly due to lack of reliable data 7 from and applicable techniques for the city context. This paper presents an effort to 8 meet the challenge by developing an accessibility-based method to estimate transit 9 trip production at the station level. Through a case study of the light-rail transit (LRT) 10 line in Wuhan, China, the method proposes a GIS-based process to derive land use 11 data needed for accessibility modeling and a statistical procedure to estimate and 12 forecast transit boardings for selected stations during the peak hours and throughout 13 the workdays. Empirical calibration shows that the proposed method produces 14 results useful for improving transit planning when detailed, timely data do not exist 15 for the application of the known tools for transit demand analysis. While the study 16 focuses on the Wuhan case, the analytical framework developed here is transferable 17 to other Chinese cities or the areas in other countries, including the developed 18 countries whenever detailed data on transit operations and on local demographics are 19 unavailable. 20},

Model 1 studies decisions to realize or not realize activity travel episodes by considering whether they have been included in the planned agenda. Model 2 analyzes decisions to perform activity travel episodes as they were planned or to modify one or more of their attributes before execution by considering whether their realization had been previously decided. Random parameters are used in both models to accommodate heterogeneity effects. Location, timing, and duration of activity travel episodes are important explanatory variables in the two scheduling processes studied. Few demographic and socioeconomic variables affect the decision processes. Significant correlations between decisions included in both models are found.

abstract = {1 This paper reports the outcomes of empirical research into international multimodal travel 2 choices, executed within the Enhanced WISETRIP project (EU Funded FP7 Framework 3 Research Program). The project aims at developing new possibilities for planning, booking and 4 travelling multimodal international journeys adapted to user needs, multiple trip criteria, and 5 environmental impact. Crucial for achieving the project's ambitious goal, is to be able to capture 6 a wide-range of user needs and diverse journeys, for which a so-called a 'trip strategy' is defined. 7 A " Techno-Experiential Design Assessment " (TEDA), comprising of user interviews and a 8 stated preference survey, was designed and implemented. The analysis of the TEDA outcomes 9 has resulted in rules and constraints for the trip strategy. The trip strategy modeling considers 10 personalized choice criteria and representative travel situations based on forecasts or user defined 11 possibilities of events. Five group interviews, including trials on user experience with potential 12 scenarios and alternative presentations of travel information, were conducted. After that two 13 online stated preference surveys were carried out for four distance classes for international 14 travelers. The outcomes of the interviews and survey include some interesting findings: (1) 15 majority of travelers indicate the need for a multimodal tip planner; (2) use of real-time 16 information and disruption messaging is doubled when roaming cost is not an issue; (3) travelers 17 are willing to switch to more CO2 friendly route if all other items are comparable; (4) safety, 18 comfort and cost are the most important factors that determine the modal and itinerary choice. 19 These practical results help in a better understanding and are considered critical in achieving an 20 enhanced international multimodal journey planner that should be affordable and encouraging 21 for a wide variety of users. 22 23 24 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Accessibility of public transit is an important political and social objective for transit agencies across the world. To meet this objective, many transit agencies provide a specialized door-to-door transportation service, called "dial-a-ride" (DAR), for the elderly and disabled. Annual DAR ridership growth,exceeding 5{\%} is reported in many cities in the United States, and this trend is expected to continue because of the aging population. In response to increased ridership, DAR services have become the fastest growing fraction of many transit agency budgets. These trends motivate the development of models that support decision making in the planning of new DAR systems or expansion of existing systems. Several statistical models have been developed in the past decade that can be used to determine the necessary DAR system capacity. These models focus on peak period analyses and provide good fit when applied to simulated case studies. This study aimed to demonstrate the importance of considering the entire day of operations rather than only the peak period. Several factors were identified that have been omitted in the literature, and comprehensive statistical and meta-models were developed for determining DAR system capacity. The performance of two proposed models was assessed with real-world data from a DAR service. The proposed models are available to the general public through a web system that provides free decision support to practitioners involved in designing DAR systems.},

The objective is to find a strategy that minimizes the expected travel time, subject to a constraint that guarantees that the destination is reached within a certain threshold. Although this framework proves to be advantageous over a priori routing, it inherits the curse of dimensionality, and state space reduction through preprocessing is achieved by solving variants of the time-dependent shortest path problem.

The objectives of this study were to analyze1) the correlation between risk and the speed perceived by the drivers, 2) the influence of the geometric layout on the perceived risk, 3) the influence of familiarity with the environment on the perceived risk, 4) the analytical perception of the speed. Test participants were recruited to drive on the test track for a total of 18 laps. The population demographics were identified through a questionnaire. Three different scenarios were used during the experimental trials. The scenarios consisted of different driving instructions given to the drivers, namely 1) the adoption of thre vehicle speeds indicated qualitatively (low, medium, high) with no real time information to the driver about the speed, 2) the adoption of three speeds indicated quantitatively with no real time information to the driver about the speed, 3) the adoption of three speeds indicated qualitatively (i.e., using a low, medium and high level of safety) with real time information on the speed to the driver. The study permitted us to identify a correlation between risk perception and drivers' familiarity with the test track. The test also showed the relationship between speed and perceived risk and the relationship between speed and the geometric layout of the racetrack.},

The OMITS has been 8 designed to integrate the availability of multiple transit modes into the ridesharing service to 9 provide riders and drivers flexible, efficient, and reliable transportation services, through 10 dynamic matching and routing algorithms and emerging information communication and data 11 mining and fusion technologies. The OMITS App, which is run on a smart phone (iPhone or 12 Android), has been developed for customers to communicate with the OMITS server, detect 13 roadway traffic conditions, and receive driving directions. The travel time for a road section is 14 predicted considering the traffic factors through the historic and real-time traffic data and public 15 transit schedule. Using the multimodal travel system, the OMITS integrates multimodal transit 16 options including the information of time-dependent arc weights, namely travel time, and 17 switching delays and provides the time-dependent multimodal shortest path using the Dijkstra's 18 algorithm under the FIFO condition. The OMITS system provides an optimized ridesharing and 19 transit service based on spontaneous transportation demands and service availability. A small 20 scale OMITS prototype has been developed and tested in New York City. An example is 21 presented to demonstrate the dynamic transit service algorithm. 22 23 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

This is based upon the assumption that unfamiliar drivers will drive at slower speeds with longer headways which would require higher capacity. However, there has been little research supporting the use of the F p factor, and the HCM cautions against its use unless the analyst is fairly certain the traffic stream is actually unfamiliar. As an experiment, two bottlenecks in California were selected and were analyzed both during the weekday peak and Sunday afternoons in periods where the traffic stream was likely to be non-local. Results showed that changes in queue discharge flow were minor at these two locations. Further research with additional sites and an increased awareness of the definition of familiarity will be required confirm results from this research.},

A special type of floating bridge, a ribbon pontoon floating bridge, is designed, built, and stocked by the military and emergency management organizations to be deployed in times of need. Lightweight and quickly erected, such bridges use the buoyancy of water to support their weight and imposed traffic loads. With increasing vehicular weights and the need for fast traversing times, analytical tools capable of designing and analyzing floating bridges are necessary. This development is ideal for optimizing vehicle weights and spacing to achieve greater economic efficiency. An analytical and experimental research program designed to study the dynamic behavior of ribbon pontoon floating bridges under two-axle vehicular loading is presented. This analytical method yielded maximum bridge displacements comparable to the experimental results. In most cases, analytical results were higher than experimental results; this difference provided a level of conservatism for design. Midspan displacements were accurately predicted as the vehicle traversed the floating bridge. However, at heavier vehicle weights, the analytical model failed to predict midspan displacement accurately at axle locations beyond midspan.},

Compared with the classical routing problems, the objective of IRPSM is to maximize 4 the inventory slack, defined as the difference between new delivery arriving time and estimated 5 materials' running out time, rather than minimize the total delivery cost.

abstract = {Automobile fuel economy standards in the United States have remained relatively flat for several decades. However, with the recent concern of reducing greenhouse gases (GHG, in particular carbon dioxide CO 2), new federal GHG and fuel economy regulations have been proposed and have gone into place starting in 2009. The current standards cover model years 2012-2016, requiring an ultimate 35.5 miles per gallon. Recently, a more aggressive second phase of fuel efficiency goals have been proposed, targeting model years 2017-2025, that requires performance equivalent to 54.5 mpg or 163 grams/mile of CO 2 for vehicles by model year 2025. As part of this proposal, regulators will allow for additional " off-cycle " credits for technologies that can reduce CO 2 emissions, but the CO 2 reductions are not necessarily measurable on standard vehicle fuel economy dynamometer-based test cycle procedures. This is typically the case for technologies that aim to smooth the velocity profile of a vehicle, such as eco-driving and related technologies. To qualify for these off-cycle credits, automobile manufacturers must quantitatively demonstrate CO 2 reductions due to their technology. This paper describes a proposed generalized methodology for establishing these off-cycle credits. TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The demand growth is relatively slow in Period I, and 41 then speeds up in Period II, before returning to a slower pace in Period III. As for trip purpose, 42 Shanghai's travel is much more diversified with increasing share of non-commuting trips (from 43 28{\%} in 1995 to 46{\%} in 2009). Spatially, travel demand is dispersed from the central district to 44 peripheral districts because of urban expansion and decentralization, and from Puxi (west of 45 Huangpu River) to Pudong (east of Huangpu River) as a result of the significant economic 46 development of the Pudong New Area. Both spatial diffusion and purpose diversification favor 47 the convenience and flexibility of private motor vehicles. Driven by rapid motorization, vehicle 48 travel is growing at a much faster pace than person travel. Overall in terms of percentage growth, 49 travel demand in Shanghai reached its peak growth in 2004, for both person trips and vehicle 50 trips. In terms of absolute number, person trip growth has peaked but vehicle trip growth has not. 51 In response to the growing demand, especially rapid motorization, the local government has 52 made tremendous investments in road infrastructure and public transit, and has attempted to 53 manage demand through vehicle ownership control. 54 55},

Some mobility attributes, for example, car ownership and transit pass, are substitutable; others, for example, car ownership and reserved parking at work, are complementary. For this reason, mobility attributes have to be analyzed and modeled jointly.

With a survey with both open and closed questions of a single sample of respondents, an analysis was done on attitudes about public transportation of peak-hour transit users in Arequipa, Peru. It was found that combining both question types helped identify and compensate for the limitations of each. The results of the open and closed questions were dramatically different, even though the same individuals answered both questions. In response to nondirective, open-ended questioning, respondents emphasized experiential concerns such as comfort and travel times. However, when asked to rank transit-related issues in order of importance, respondents overwhelmingly chose social concerns such as pollution and traffic accidents over the experiential concerns they themselves previously mentioned. The psychological forces that may have led to these apparently contradictory results were explored. The paper drew on the belief-sampling model of survey response and social desirability bias to explain why open questioning may have understated the true value respondents placed on social issues, whereas the closed question may have underemphasized the importance of users' quotidian travel experience. The participants' willingness to change answers between the two question forms suggests that confirmation bias may not be a significant impediment to the use of mixed question types.},

Clifton, Currans and Muhs 2 ABSTRACT This paper outlines a new perspective on data collection to inform site‐level trip generation studies with amendments to ITE's Trip Generation Handbook in mind. The data collection proposed here is informed from the authors' experiences in a study that aimed to adjust trip generation rates for urban context [1]. In this study, a consistent and reliable method for adjusting ITE's trip generation rates to account for increased non‐automobile travel in different urban contexts was developed. Based upon these experiences, the design presented here proposes more emphasis on collecting information on person counts and how those person trips are distributed across various modes, including walking, cycling and transit. This paper advocates a move away from the vehicle‐based counts used historically in these studies, to a focus on how new development impacts all transportation system users.},

abstract = {The operation of traffic signals is currently limited by the data available from traditional point sensors. Point detectors can provide only limited vehicle information at a fixed location. The most advanced adaptive control strategies are often not implemented in the field because of their operational complexity and high-resolution detection requirements. However, a new initiative known as connected vehicles allows the wireless transmission of the positions, headings, and speeds of vehicles for use by the traffic controller. A new traffic control algorithm, the predictive microscopic simulation algorithm, which uses these new, more robust data, was developed. The decentralized, fully adaptive traffic control algorithm uses a rolling-horizon strategy in which the phasing is chosen to optimize an objective function over a 15-s period in the future. The objective function uses either delay only or a combination of delay, stops, and decelerations. To measure the objective function, the algorithm uses a microscopic simulation driven by present vehicle positions, headings, and speeds. The algorithm is relatively simple, does not require point detectors or signal-to-signal communication, and is completely responsive to immediate vehicle demands. To ensure drivers' privacy, the algorithm does not store individual or aggregate vehicle locations. Results from a simulation showed that the algorithm maintained or improved performance compared with that of a state-of-the-practice coordinated actuated timing plan optimized by Synchro at low and midlevel volumes, but that performance worsened under saturated and oversaturated conditions. Testing also showed that the algorithm had improved performance during periods of unexpected high demand and the ability to respond automatically to year-to-year growth without retiming.},

abstract = {This paper describes a project to develop a microlevel traffic simulation for a megaregion. To accomplish that goal, a mass evacuation event was modeled with a traffic demand generation process that created a spatial and temporal distribution of departure times, origins, and destinations based on past hurricane scenarios. A megaregion-scale simulation was required to assess this event, because only at this level could traffic from multiple cities, over several days, with route assignments in multiple and overlapping directions be analyzed. One finding of the research was that it was possible to scale up and adapt existing models to reflect a simultaneous multicity evacuation covering a megaregion. The movements generated by the demand and operational models were logical and meaningful, and they were able to capture the key elements of the system, including the traffic progression over vast spaces and long time durations. They were also adequate to demonstrate the benefits of proactive traffic management strategies and the effect of increased and decreased advance warning times. The project also revealed numerous limitations of the existing modeling and computational processing capabilities. The knowledge and results gained from this research can be adapted and can be transferable for the evaluation of other locations with different road networks, populations, transportation resources, and hazard threats. Models such as this can also be modified to represent future anticipated growth and development in other large regions and can be used to evaluate the performance, varying conditions, and interrelationships between behavioral response and regional transportation management strategies.},

The need to quickly 3 communicate up-to-date messages to the road users as part of Active Traffic Management 4 (ATM) strategies has given rise to the increasing use of dynamic message signs (DMS). 5 A typical DMS includes only dynamic messages. An alternative to DMS is hybrid signs, which 6 display both static and dynamic messages on a single sign. A hybrid sign consists of a 7 conventional retro-reflective static sign that is embedded with one or more relatively small, 8 dynamic, usually light emitting diode (LED) message panels. Potential advantages of hybrid 9 signs over DMS include better legibility, shorter reading time, smaller size, and lower 10 installation, operations, and maintenance costs. This paper provides the first state-of-the-practice 11 review on the use, design, and performance of hybrid signs. It covers hybrid sign applications in 12 different parts of the world, including the U.S., Europe, Australia, Asia, and Africa. The 13 application areas include variable speed limit display, speed monitoring display, parking 14 guidance system, travel time display, managed lane operations, and graphical route information 15 display. Multiple examples of each application, many of which were considered innovative and 16 can potentially be adopted for use in the U.S., are given. Issues related to the applications are 17 discussed and lessons learned are provided. 18 19},

abstract = {32 33 In this paper we explore the potential of a smartphone database to investigate influences on travel 34 behavior. Our aim is to exploit the rich individual-level data available from the smartphone to 35 study the influence of communication and social contacts (collected via phone call and sms logs) 36 on spatial movement (collected via GPS). An advantage of smartphone data is the ability to 37 collect such rich data without user input over a long period of time, and the disadvantages is the 38 difficulty associated with processing the data. We work with three months of data from 111 39 people collected via a snowball sample. In studying travel behavior, we focus on high level 40 measures of mobility as represented by the size of activity space and travel intensity (our 41 dependent variables). We use as explanatory variables sociodemographics, spatial relationship 42 between home and work, use of communication (number of phone calls and sms), and the travel 43 behavior of those in the sample who are connected to the respondent (where connectivity is 44 measured by phone and sms contact). We describe how these variables were processed from the 45 smartphone data and present estimation results from the regression analysis. We find that people 46 tend to travel in a similar manner as those they are socially connected to (consistent with the 47 social network and travel literature) and that communication use is a complement to physical 48 travel (consistent with the telecommunication and travel literature). The results, although 49 preliminary, illustrate how smartphone data can be exploited to reveal complex features of travel 50 behavior, even when they are not collected for travel behavior purpose. 51 52 53 1. INTRODUCTION 54 55 The availability of smartphone data opens new opportunities to analyze travel behavior. This 56 paper is an exploratory study about the potential of use smartphone dataset to evaluate how the 57 social contacts of a traveler, together with her profile as a user of communication services, are 58 related to travel behavior. 59 60 Compared to traditional surveys, such as those based on travel diaries, smartphones data are not 61 biased by interpretation, judgment or omission from the travelers. The various sensors available 62 in the current generation of smartphones reveal rich information about the location, the 63 movements, the contacts and the usage of the phone, in particular the communication profile via 64 phone calls and text messages. An important point is that the dataset has not been collected for 65 travel behavior purpose. Our objective in this paper is to explore how this information can be use 66 to quantify the impact of various measured quantities on travel behavior. 67 68 The paper is organized as follows: first a literature review is provided, then, the methodology and 69 model are presented, followed by a case study and conclusions. 70 71 2. LITERATURE REVIEW 72 73 The literature on travel behavior is vast. Most articles focus on measuring travel habits and 74 activity patterns are based on travel diaries or GPS data. For instance, Buliung and Kanaroglou 75 (2006) analyze how households and individuals are using space to conduct their activities. 76 Schlich and Axhausen (2003), Pas (1988) and Gonzalez et al (2008) measure habitual travel 77 behavior and Hanson and Huff (1988) study the variability in individual travel pattern.

abstract = {in EndNote Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) have primarily focused on systems management. To further improve connectivity and safety in the future, ITS might embrace a more holistic planning approach. While the future of ITS remains an open question, its evolution is closely linked to how the world evolves on many dimensions⎯?social, political, economic, legal, and environmental. In this paper, the authors present results from four expert workshops. These consisted of an initial steering committee workshop (February 2011), two expert scenario- planning workshops (June 2011), and a final steering committee workshop (July 2011). The scenario planning workshops explored the implications of alternative futures on ITS and incorporated a broad interdisciplinary approach in developing a long-term transportation vision (2030 to 2050 time horizon) for the United States. Twenty-four experts, representing diverse disciplines, participated in a series of workshops to envision plausible futures and to assess their effects on the transportation system. By exploring different futures, experts identified opportunities and barriers for implementing advanced seamless transportation systems. Opportunities include the deployment of adaptable, integrated technology and transportation infrastructure to address natural disasters and climate change. The most significant barriers were funding and politics. The experts suggested that financial barriers be overcome through innovative funding techniques and improved public outreach. Building upon the experts' recommendations, several visions for an integrated ITS approach, which addresses social and environmental challenges in the future, were created. These include private-public partnerships; distributed implementation models (e.g., localized); and the development of seamless transportation systems to reduce energy consumption, emissions, and road congestion.},

In the model most widely used, the distribution is assumed to follow a gravity model with a negative exponential deterrence function and the assignment is made according to the deterministic user equilibrium principle. In this paper, we describe an extension of this model in which the allocation of trips to routes is made according to the principle of stochastic user equilibrium. We discuss the behavioural foundations of trip assignment and combined models assuming deterministic or stochastic route choice. In particular, we describe how they can be derived using the efficiency principle from discrete choice theory; the combined distribution and stochastic assignment model is obtained as the continuous approximation of the discrete problem of finding the most probable flow pattern under the assumption of efficient trip making behaviour. We outline an algorithm for the solution of the model which is based on route (column) generation, disaggregate simplicial decomposition, and partial linearization.},

Yagi et al. 2 ABSTRACT Following the analysis of the household auto/motorcycle ownership and mode choice models that were presented last year, this paper particularly presents the results of joint mode and destination choice models that were developed based on the two large-scale travel surveys conducted eight years apart from each other. It also compares the models and discusses implications of the changes that have been made in the Jakarta Metropolitan Area in the last decade. Interpretation of the effects of different types of variables including basic travel, household, and individual characteristics as well as zonal attributes in the models estimated for 2002 and 2010 led to several interesting insights in light of the change in the transportation environment as well as the increase in complexity of the travel behavior in Jakarta. So long as the context of the society will not change, both models should remain unchanged with fixed parameters over a period of time. However, the models that were estimated based on the surveys conducted nearly a decade apart have indicated quite different parameters with different degrees of significance. As was found in the comparison that was made last year, transferability of those disaggregate choice models may not always apply in urban areas of the developing world such as Jakarta, even though the model structure may remain the same. Such implications may also be important and hence worth studying for other urban areas of the developing world though similarities may be restricted to regions that share modal and cultural norms in common.

Branded as Call-n-Ride (CnR), this DRT service is operated in 20 3 service areas in a variety of settings throughout the RTD district. CnR was developed to serve 4 communities that are difficult to serve cost-effectively with bus service due to their low to moderate 5 residential and employment densities, circuitous street networks and dispersed geographic and temporal 6 travel patterns, but which have sufficient demand to warrant by policy a community service or connection 7 to the metropolitan transit network. The CnR service is characterized by a range of DRT service 8 configurations, incorporating many to many services, scheduled checkpoints, zones and flex-routes 9 specifically tailored to the topography and travel patterns of each service area. Based on an analysis of 10 data obtained primarily from CnR's automated scheduling system, this paper provides insights into the 11 operations of such DRT services for the general public that may assist others in assessing its feasibility 12 for implementation in other metropolitan areas. 13 14 INTRODUCTION 15},

Singleton 2 ABSTRACT 1 Activity-based household travel surveys are becoming much more common as states and 2 metropolitan regions contemplate advancing their travel behavior forecasting abilities. Such 3 activity and travel surveys are valuable for the estimation and calibration of activity-based travel 4 demand forecasting models. Before travel survey records can be used, they must be edited using 5 data cleaning processes that identify, reject, and/or correct internal inconsistencies, miscoded 6 information, and other errors. Literature on travel survey data cleaning is sparse, and few travel 7 survey data cleaning standards exist beyond ad-hoc rules of thumb. 8 This paper presents a possible methodology for improving on data cleaning rules of 9 thumb by borrowing statistical methods, especially from the field of robust statistics. The 10 methodology was applied to the walk trip records of a household activity and travel survey 11 conducted during 2011 in the Portland, Oregon, region. First, indicator variables were 12 constructed to flag suspect walk trips. Next, visual inspection of the highest-ranking 5{\%} of 13 suspect walk trips was performed. The methodology identified 29 walk trips with an incorrect 14 mode, 19 location errors, 39 trips with travel time errors, and 6 walk trips with inaccurate trip 15 purposes. After correcting the mode errors and removing the trips with location errors, key walk 16 calibration statistics were more reasonable, demonstrating the usefulness of a statistically-17 derived data cleaning methodology. Finally, the paper concludes with recommended foci for data 18 cleaning efforts of activity-based household travel surveys. 19 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Evidence shows that although the take-up of travel plans is increasing across 31 the NHS, the impact of travel plans in promoting walking as a travel option is relatively low among 32 hospital staff. There is a lack of research on hospital travel plans, specifically in terms of what factors 33 may have affected their success. This empirical study aims at bridging the gap between research and 34 practice by capturing the views of the NHS representatives on hospital travel plans by use of a 35 questionnaire. The survey findings show that despite having a high potential to promote walking as a 36 key travel option among the hospital staff, the measures to promote walking are cited as the least 37 effective. A Spearman correlation coefficient test was performed to evaluate the correlation between 38 travel plan measures to promote walking and restrictive measures to reduce the use of cars. The 39 results show that the effectiveness of measures to reduce the use of cars is positively correlated with 40 the effectiveness of measures to promote walking. The effectiveness of travel plan measures is 41 attributed to the successful adoption of innovative strategies in the given travel plan context. 42 43 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Major State Departments of Transportation such as the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) operate and maintain networks of thousands of miles of conduits, many carrying fiber optic cables that are vital to State communication systems. These conduits are located alongside or across highways and frequently must be located and marked to avoid damage from digging or boring resulting from construction. The existing inventory system consisted of sections of pipelines of varying length with differing lengths and sometimes unknown or changing diameters and materials. In order to facilitate the location of fiber optic facilities by operations personnel and enable access to junction boxes and conduits, a computerized connectivity-based inventory system for fiber optic segments and nodes (junction boxes) was developed in a first phase. The system enabled the transition from a flat incomplete and inaccurate system of facility identification to a comprehensive hierarchical system of facility cataloguing. An expansion of the system to include multiple inner layers within pipes and junction boxes, such as Conduits and Cables enabled the definition of a Routing entity, an essential component of a comprehensive fiber optic connectivity-based system. Key to the system design is the definition of the multi-layered hierarchical relationships between various levels of facility definition. The ability to " drill-down " from an external layer to an inner component and to establish multi-directional facility contiguity enables the progressive improvement of data quality and the establishment of a reliable connectivity model between facilities. This extended prototype enables the successful transition from a system based on section records to a more connectivity-based hierarchical asset management model of fiber optic underground facilities, with significant savings in operational costs and reliability of the field investigative work.},

This paper presents selected results using a laser-based scanning technique to determine the 4 form of aggregates used in construction of pavements in South Africa. A three-dimensional (3-D) 5 laser scanning system was used to scan aggregate materials from different sources, and the data were 6 processed to reconstruct 3-D models of the aggregate particles. The models were further analyzed to 7 determine the form properties. In this paper, two analysis approaches, based on aggregate physical 8 properties and spherical harmonic analysis, were employed to determine the aggregate form indices. 9 The aggregate form indices obtained from the physical aggregate properties were compared with the 10 form indices computed based on the spherical harmonic analysis. The indices based on the physical 11 properties include sphericity computed from the surface area and volume, sphericity computed from 12 three orthogonal dimensions, and flat and elongated ratio computed from the longest and shortest 13 dimensions of an aggregate particle. Good correlations were observed between the form indices 14 obtained from the aggregate physical properties, and the spherical harmonic form index.

ABSTRACT 1 The research presented in this paper quantifies the efficiency, energy, and environmental impacts of 2 single-lane and two-lane roundabouts compared to all-way stop control (AWSC), two-way stop control 3 (TWSC), and traffic signal control. Furthermore, the research develops guidelines for the identification of 4 the optimum intersection control as a function of the level of intersection demand, the distribution of 5 demand across various approaches, and the distribution of approach demand between left, through and 6 right turner movements. The research first compares the alternative control strategies using field data 7 collected from two roundabouts in the Blacksburg Area. The field data are then used to validate the 8 INTEGRATION software for the modeling of different intersection control strategies. The field data 9 demonstrate that in both cases roundabouts are the optimum control strategy. The sensitivity analysis 10 demonstrates that single-lane roundabouts are more effective for high through and right turn demand 11 levels and less effective for high left turn demands in comparison to other isolated intersection control 12 strategies. The two-lane roundabout results suggest roundabouts are effective regardless of the demand 13 level and distribution of demand across the various movements. 14 15 16 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

They can be used to obtain quick, order-of-magnitude estimates of 4 transit patronage, at a fraction of the cost of a full travel demand model, and are also more adept 5 at capturing the effects of smart growth on transit ridership. Their relatively low cost, flexible 6 data requirements and rapidity make them particularly suited to developing world cities. Yet 7 these cities still rely exclusively on full travel demand models to advise investments in new 8 transit infrastructure. In doing so, they often rely on old data and household surveys that are out 9 of date, and do not capture important recent changes in travel patterns. Using Mexico City as a 10 case study, we illustrate the benefits of using DRM models in a developing world context. We 11 develop ridership models for the city's BRT and Metro networks, studying how land use, service 12 and station attributes impact ridership for each mode, and also how connections between BRT 13 and Metro affect each other's ridership. We notably found that the two systems are highly 14 complementary, each getting ridership benefits from connecting to the other. We then discuss the 15 implications of our findings for transport policy in Mexico City, as well as some shortcomings of 16 DRM models – in particular their difficulty in accounting for informal transit.},

ASSIST-WEE was developed on a customized version of the AreGIS 9.2 Developer Engine in the Microsoft .NET Framework. The tool is built on a flexible framework that allows for adoption of any traditional transportation planning model, as demonstrated with the output of two major transportation planning models on different software platforms: the New York Best Practice Model, running in TransCAD, and the North Jersey Regional Transportation Model-Enhanced, running in CUBE. ASSIST-ME allows agencies and planners to easily work with transportation planning model output, analysis of which is often time-consuming and requires extensive training. It offers four key functionalities: data visualization, demand analysis, path analysis, and benefit-cost analysis. Data visualization and demand analysis enable the user to work easily with direct model output; the custom path and cost analysis tools support analyses beyond those possible with other software packages. The benefit-cost analysis functions utilize the latest quantification-monetization approaches employed in research and by government agencies and require no external applications or procedures. This process can be used for any planning scenario, but ASSIST-ME also allows for customization to modify input data or analysis procedures according to the user's needs. ASSIST-ME incorporates data visualization, data analysis, and output reporting functionalities in a single user-friendly setting that requires minimal training or knowledge of the models themselves.},

abstract = {(6,553 words + 2 Figures (250) = 7,053 words) This paper was submitted to the Transportation Research Board. ABSTRACT The paper presents a route choice model and algorithm for dynamic assignment in congested, i.e. overcrowded, transit networks where it is assumed that passengers are supported with real-time information on carrier arrivals at stops. If the stop layout is such that passenger congestion results in First-In-First-Out (FIFO) queues, a new formulation is devised for calculating waiting times, total travel times and route splits. Numerical results for a simple example network show the effect of congestion and information on route choice, both in terms of total travel time to the destination and route split. Moreover, it is shown that while the provision of information does not lead to a remarkable decrease in total travel time, with the exception of some particular instances, it changes the travel behaviour of passengers that seem to be more averse to queuing at later stages of their journey and, thus, prefer to interchange at less congested stations. This result suggests that information can help to achieve a more equilibrate use of the network. TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {1 Prediction of future freight demand for multi-modal transportation is one of the critical issues 2 in seaport planning and development either in developed or developing countries. Developing 3 country like India is experiencing freight growth at about 10{\%} per annum in the current 4 scenario. Owing to such growth, Indian ports handle 95{\%} of the total volume of country's 5 trade and about 70{\%} in terms of value. The 13 major ports and 200 non major ports handle 6 75{\%} and 25{\%} of the total seaport freight throughput respectively. Among the 13 major ports, 7 Mumbai Port ranked at no.3 in the current year handles about 11{\%} of the total freight traffic 8 at major seaports in India. Therefore, an attempt has been made to analyze and model the 9 freight flow data for Mumbai Port using regression analysis and time series techniques. The 10 annual data series recorded for the last 112 years at Mumbai Port is used for this study. None 11 of the past studies in the literature have presented the use of multivariate linear regression 12 (MVLR) for port freight flow estimation though the technique has been used extensively for 13 some other areas of demand estimation. Therefore, several econometric models were 14 developed using regression technique and it was found that MVLR models were suitable for 15 estimating the inbound and outbound freight traffic. About 17{\%} of the data were selected at 16 random to validate the forecast models. The validation revealed that MVLR models were 17 appropriate for future freight flow estimation since these models resulted with low forecast 18 errors i.e. average absolute error is 11.94{\%} and 12.92{\%} for inbound and outbound freight 19 flow respectively. The r 2 values were highest for MVLR models among all the regression 20 models. Higher r 2 value and low forecast error indicating that the MVLR models may be 21 preferred for seaport freight flow estimation over other type of regression models. Also, the 22 forecast errors resulted from MVLR models were within 10{\%} limit for the recent years 23 forecast. Similarly, time series models like ARIMA (0, 1, 0) and ARIMA (1, 1, 2) were found 24 suitable for inbound and outbound freight flow prediction respectively. The economic 25 indicator variables data were obtained from the data base of Center for Monitoring Indian 26 Economy (CMIE). This study has been motivated by the growing recognition that freight 27 movement is not receiving sufficient attention from transportation researchers (in particular 28 to Indian scenario) in recent times. The study may benefit port planning agencies for port 29 infrastructure planning and development.},

The reliable path is defined in this paper as the path that requires 6 the lowest travel time budget to ensure a given probability of on-time arrival. Such path can be 7 found by solving the shortest path problem considering on-time arrival reliability, or SPOTAR. 8 We propose to approximately solve SPOTAR using an approach based on Monte Carlo 9 simulation. A major advantage of the simulation-based algorithm is its ability to deal with 10 correlated link travel times. Using a real-world network, the study first validates the simulation-11 based algorithm by comparing it to a label-correcting algorithm, and then uses it to examine the 12 impacts of the correlations in link travel times. The results of numerical experiments indicate that 13 correlations affect the optimal SPOTAR solutions significantly. Yet, larger correlations do not 14 always imply that larger errors would occur if they are ignored. 15 16},

It is essential for a forecasting model to capture the periodicity and nonlinearity 3 characteristics of short-term passenger flow and to embed these characteristics into the model to enhance 4 forecasting performance. In this research, a support vector machine global online model (SVMGOL) is 5 first proposed by embedding the periodic characteristics via seasonal autoregressive integrated moving 6 average model (SARIMA) to capture the inherent periodicity of passenger flow. A support vector machine 7 local online model (SVMLOL) is then proposed by embedding the nonlinear characteristics via successive 8 passenger flow value inputs to capture the local nonlinear characteristics of the passenger flow. To take 9 advantage of the two online models, this research constructs a support vector machine hybrid online model 10 (SVMHOL) based on the idea of data fusion and discusses the model building process and its application 11 in the prediction of short-term passenger flow at Zhujianglu Station of Nanjing Metro.

They are primarily found in dense urban areas in the developed world though they are reaching beyond this comfort zone in several ways.  There are now more than a million subscribers worldwide.  CS services generally require public sector support, though this is not always the case and may be less so in the future. Some CS systems are publicly-funded, but policymakers are taking note of this mode of transport for several other reasons as well: it affects use of other forms of transportation, it impacts on important outcomes such as emissions and parking needs, and it uses privileged access to publicly-owned on-street space.  At the moment policymakers must make decisions on a very limited evidence base, in particular as regards new types of CS systems.  To date a small number of studies have attempted to forecast how widespread CS services might become and the likely impacts.  This paper presents forecasts prepared with a newly-developed methodology using London, England as a case study.  The authors show that the potential market and impacts of CS systems are highly-dependent on the specific service features.},

abstract = {Models explaining and predicting human travel behavior have gone through many changes in the past few decades. As researchers attempt to explain more and predict with more accuracy, the inclusion of social interactions in modeling and simulation is being recognized as a necessity. Among these efforts, researchers have focused on issues such as the composition of social networks, and the constraints and influences that others have on spatial decisions. An important aspect that has been understudied however is the variability or heterogeneity of individuals both as social network members and as participants in these social networks. Understanding the role individuals play in decision-making in different social networks can further define our models to include more accurate representations of human behavior. This research explores the differences between social network composition, and the decision roles members play within different social networks specifically when deciding where to participate in activities. A survey was conducted in Santa Barbara, California on social network involvement, network attributes, and decision-making roles within each network. Two separate latent class cluster analysis models were developed to classify social network involvement and roles. Results show that there are clearly different types of social involvement and roles within networks. Further data collection and analysis will be used to better understand how these decision-making roles manifest themselves in activity decision-making.},

What efforts have been undertaken tend to focus on outputs (e.g. number of participants at meetings), rather than outcomes (e.g. participant satisfaction with the process).

abstract = {The latest advancements in intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) increasingly rely on wireless vehicle-to-vehicle (VTV) and vehicle-to- infrastructure (VTI) communications to manage traffic flows at intersections dynamically. A prominent example is virtual traffic lights (VTLs), which use only VTV communications and which have been shown to have the potential to increase traffic flows and reduce emissions significantly. Two key issues that can affect the adoption of desirable ITS solutions like VTLs are functional safety and the management of a move from a vehicle fleet not equipped with VTLs to a vehicle fleet completely equipped with VTLs. For the first issue, the first model-driven engineering-based modeling and verification technique for ITSs is proposed. This technique can be used to prove functional safety with 100{\%} coverage. Through the use of this technique, it is shown that although VTLs are safe under normal circumstances, they are very fragile when they face unlikely, but not impossible, exceptional circumstances. For the second issue, an extended algorithm called VTL+ is proposed. VTL+ uses additional VTI communication with the existing infrastructure to enable effective and safe traffic flow during the VTL transition phase. It is also found through static analysis that VTL+ is more robust and more feature rich than VTLs.},

abstract = {The Washington State Transportation Commission (WSTC) has pioneered a new approach to involving the public in transportation policy by using online surveying and survey panels. To broaden outreach to Washington State residents and improve public engagement with government, WSTC created the Ferry Riders' Opinion Group (FROG) survey panel in 2007. WSTC, whose responsibilities include setting ferry fares and highway tolls, began by surveying ferry riders' views on customer service, ferry fares, and fare policies. After discovering how eager ferry riders were to share ideas and opinions, WSTC created an online survey panel of ferry riders to listen and communicate with them about more detailed, focused topics such as ferry service levels, assessment of mode shift potential, and system investment priorities. In 2012 WSTC took this two-way, dynamic interaction with the public to the next step, launching the Voice of Washington State (VOWS) online survey statewide panel. The FROG and VOWS programs elicit citizen views on transportation policy and funding, generating unique data that WSTC then shares with state and local decision makers. These survey panels engage the silent majority in policy making in a manner never before offered. This paper describes the development of the FROG and VOWS survey panels, the recruitment and retention of panel members, and how survey results are analyzed and reported to decision makers and panel members. The many participants and the real and responsive policy changes resulting from the survey data demonstrate the success of these programs.},

The data collection involved intercept interviews with truck drivers at three rest area and truck stops along major highways in North America. The computerized survey solicited information on truck routing decisions, the identity of the decision-makers, the factors that affect routing and sources of information consulted in making these decisions. Stated Preferences (SP) experiments were conducted, where drivers' choice behaviour between two hypothetical scenarios were observed and modeled. 252 drivers completed the survey, yielding 1121 valid SP observations. This data was used to study the identity of routing decision makers for various driver segments and the sources of information used both in pre-trip planning and en-route. A random effects logit model was estimated using the SP data. The results show that there are significant differences in the route choice decision-making process among various driver segments, and that these decisions are affected by multiple factors beyond travel time and cost. These factors include shipping and driver employment terms, such as the method of calculation of pay and bearing of fuel costs and tolls.},

abstract = {Serving protected left-turn phases for one or two vehicles can often be an inefficient use of cycle green time when the opposing through movements are over capacity. This paper assesses the performance of an intersection at which controller logic is applied to delay the call for a protected left-turn phase on the basis of vehicle wait times. During four weeks of evaluation, the delay on left-turn phase calls was varied in 25-s increments from 0 to 75 s. The results indicate that delaying left-turn phase initiation substantially increases the amount of green time for saturated through movements while minimally increasing the travel delay for left-turning drivers. The recommendation is made for agencies to consider using a delay in the range of 25 to 50 s for calling protected phases at intersections at which the opposing through movement is oversaturated and could benefit from additional green time. This paper presents one of the first quantitative studies evaluating potential intersection capacity and performance improvements with respect to left-turn detector delay.},

It is the list of order that all intersections will be 3 optimized in sequence. Along with this, the determination of critical intersection of 4 the network is an important problem as well. But the optimisation order and critical 5 intersection is determined by users by experience, or by simple greedy-like method 6 such as saturation degree sorting method etc. The optimal signal timing plan generated 7 by them may not be the true optimal plan. This paper addresses this issue by a new 8 method to find the optimal optimisation order and critical intersection which has been 9 named Sorting Model of Optimisation Order (SMOO). The intersection at first 10 position of the optimisation order list is defined as the critical intersection. Two cases 11 are used to test this model. By experiments, SMOO computes more optimal order 12 compared to other greedy sorting methods. The measures of effectiveness of signal 13 plans from SMOO outperform the other methods'.},

The most successful incentive schemes for reducing speeding were associated with a 60-80 percent reduction of speeding. Trials designed to reduce mileage were not as successful and resulted in mileage reductions of 0 to 10 percent. Small samples and high attrition rates (i.e. participants dropping out of the study before it was completed) characterized most trials. There is also likely to be self-selection bias, but the size of this bias is difficult to determine. Data for Sweden and Denmark suggest that it could be substantial. Hence, the effects found in the trials reported so far reflect what can be accomplished in groups of highly motivated drivers.},

abstract = {Detector occupancy is commonly used to measure traffic signal perfor-mance. Despite improvements in controller computational power, there have been few innovations in occupancy-based performance measures and little integration with other data. This paper introduces and dem-onstrates the use of graphical performance measures based on detector occupancy ratios to verify potential split failures and other signal timing shortcomings reported to practitioners by the public. The proposed per-formance measures combine detector occupancy during the green phase, detector occupancy during the first 5 s of the red phase, and phase ter-mination cause (gap out or force-off). They are summarized by time of day to indicate whether the phase is undersaturated, nearly saturated, or oversaturated. The graphical performance measures and related quanti-tative summaries provide a first-level screening and triaging tool to help practitioners assess user concerns about whether sufficient green times are being provided to avoid split failures. They can also provide outcome-based feedback to staff after split adjustments have been made to deter-mine whether operation improved or worsened. The paper demonstrates how the information was used to make an operational decision to reallo-cate green time that reduced the number of oversaturated splits on minor movements from 304 to 222 during a Thursday 0900 to 1500 timing plan and from 240 to 180 during a Friday 0900 to 1500 timing plan. Traffic engineers frequently respond to trouble calls from the public about perceived traffic signal timing deficiencies. A common reported issue is that the signal did not provide enough green time to serve the vehicles waiting for a particular movement. This event is known as a split failure. It is particularly aggravating to motorists because they must wait for an entire cycle length before the next green indication. Preventing split failures from occurring by proactive adjustment of signal timings to accommodate evolving traffic demands is desirable. At the same time, for efficient operation of the intersection, termina-tion of actuated phases as soon as their demand has been served is desirable. Increasing the split time for a problem phase is not always an adequate response to a trouble call, especially at times of day with moderate to heavy demand on competing phases. Currently, detector occupancy is the primary performance mea-sure for determining the condition of operations of each phase of a signal. Occupancy is used for performance monitoring and adaptive control in several advanced control systems. For example, the Sydney (Australia) Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (1, 2) measures a degree of saturation based on detector occupancy, while ACS-Lite (3) uses the green occupancy ratio (GOR), or the percent of time the detector is occupied during green, to drive split adjustments. Detector occupancy is limited in that the rate of occupancy quickly attains a high value under moderate demand, which is shown by Smaglik et al. in a paper comparing GORs and volume-to-capacity (v/c) ratios (4). Efficient operation occurs when there is expeditious termination of actuated phases, and a high GOR during a given split does not always correspond to a split failure. One possible solution is to utilize a vehicle-counting detector, which provides higher-fidelity data and can be used to monitor phase performance and adjust splits (5–8). In earlier research, an upper-bound threshold on the v/c ratio was used to estimate the occurrences of split fail-ures. This approach requires the installation of counting detector amplifiers. In contrast, occupancy measurements are feasible at any intersection with existing detection. Recently, Hallenbeck et al. proposed the measurement of occupancy during both green and yellow for measuring phase performance (9). Sunkari et al. proposed the measurement of " queue service time, " the interval between the onset of green and the termination of a continu-ous call for the respective phase (10). They also measured the number of phase max outs. Li et al. proposed monitoring the number of times phases maxed out during three or more consecutive cycles (11). The present study extends this work by combining the green occupancy with the occupancy during the start of red and phase termination infor-mation to provide a more accurate view of phase performance than green occupancy alone can provide.},

Wang 2 ABSTRACT 1 Since the 1990s, federal legislation as well as local and state political environments has changed 2 the landscape for metropolitan planning of land use and transportation. There is an urgent need 3 for improved models that address the interdependencies between land use and transportation, and 4 considerable new work is underway to develop such models by MPOs. However, these models 5 require the integration of massive amounts of land use and socio-economic data. The current 6 state of practice for preparing and managing data for integrated modeling is ad-hoc and messy. 7 Such practice is increasingly challenged, as data sources increasingly update more frequently and 8 come with various quality issues. This paper reports the progress of an ongoing project that aims 9 to address this challenge. The project focuses on bringing interdisciplinary methods to make the 10 best use of available data in land use and transportation domain. It identifies strategies for 11 changing the paradigm of data management from episodic and costly to continuous and efficient. 12 We recommend continuous and reusable strategies for managing data in this new paradigm, and 13 pay special attention to monitoring quality of the data through automated data quality indicators 14 as data from various sources are being integrated on a continuous basis. This paper primarily 15 focuses on a key piece of the framework, the data quality indicators, and demonstrates their 16 application with data from Oregon.},

This paper incorporates the RIN system into the design of a biofuel supply chain that addresses independent decisions of non-cooperative farmers, biofuel manufacturers, and blenders. Game-theoretic models are developed to examine the impacts of the RIN system on individual stakeholders' decisions (e.g., on farmland use, bio-refinery investment, biofuel production) and the competition between food and biofuel industries, in both a perfectly competitive scenario and a monopoly scenario. For the perfectly competitive scenario, Nash equilibrium can be obtained by solving a convex optimization problem. For the monopoly scenario, a bi-level Stackelberg leader-follower model is developed, from which we found that a rigid mandate on blenders may suppress the total biofuel production. To avoid such unintended consequences, a relaxed unit-RIN based penalty scheme is proposed and shown to improve the overall biofuel supply chain performance. Managerial insights are drawn from a numerical case study for the state of Illinois. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

The disorganized information from different sources leads to a mixture of format and definition. In the work reported in this paper, the Dempster-Shafer theory (DST) of evidence was applied to combine evidence (i.e., a piece of information that supports a claim) from different sources. The method is regarded as a generalization of the Bayesian theory and can avoid two difficulties in classical probability theory: handling the conflicting information and assigning prior probabilities. The work of data fusion was demonstrated first by a decision fusion problem that involved the reconciliation of contradictory expert reports. The DST can provide a decision maker with a comprehensive result through the combination of different experts' opinions. Second, fusion was conducted of two representative maritime incident databases: that of the Global Integrated Shipping Information System and that of the International Chamber of Commerce. Although the records in the databases had some defects (e.g., disorder, error, contradiction), the DST was able to work effectively and calculate an uncertainty interval of incident.},

abstract = {This article presents a mixed-integer programming model for a multitype facility colocation problem with capacity expansion over a multiperiod horizon. This problem is motivated by the emerging U.S. biofuel industry that is rapidly expanding its infrastructure facilities to produce bioethanol from agricultural crops. Each type of facility (e.g., corn- or cellulose-based biorefinery) requires a different type of raw material (e.g., corn or perennial grass), but they produce the same final product (e.g., bioethanol), and colocation of multiple types of facilities results in cost-saving benefits due to complementary production process and byproduct recycling. Multiple solution approaches (i.e., Lagrangian relaxation, Benders decomposition, and accelerated Benders decomposition) are proposed to solve this problem. Numerical experiments show that accelerated Benders decomposition most effectively solves large-sized problems in a short amount of time. Various managerial insights are also drawn from the computational results.  2013 Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering.},

Consequently, the research presented in this paper extends a 4 previous study by developing a simple model that estimates the traffic stream flow passing a 5 moving bottleneck. Specifically, the research presented in this paper extends the deterministic 6 modeling approach by considering differences in driver and vehicle behavior using simulated 7 data generated using the INTEGRATION software. It is shown that the impact of the speed 8 distribution is more notable for high demand levels and results in a decrease in the passing 9 rate, which is consistent with traffic flow theory. Finally, the paper also demonstrates that the 10 roadway jam density has no to minimum effect on the bottleneck passing rates. With this 11 extension, the proposed framework is comprehensive with regards to the estimation of the 12 passing rate past moving bottlenecks.},

abstract = {A methodological framework is formulated so that continuum approximation techniques can be used to design bus networks for cities where travel demand varies gradually over space. The bus-route configurations that result consist of (i) a main, possibly city-wide grid with relatively large physical spacings between its parallel routes and the stops along those routes; together with (ii) one or more local grids with more closely-spaced routes and stops that serve neighborhoods of higher demand densities. The so-called power-of-two concept is borrowed from the field of inventory control, and is enforced so that local grids can be inserted seamlessly within the main one.The resulting heterogeneous route configurations can reduce the costs to the bus users and the operating agency combined, as compared against the costs of homogeneous bus-route grids. Differences of as much as 8{\%} are observed for numerical examples that cover wide-ranging patterns in spatially-varying demand. Much of the savings are due to the diminished access costs that users enjoy when high-demand neighborhoods are served by local grids with closely-spaced routes and stops.},

The objective is to deter- mine the optimal facility location and deployment time that minimize the costs for facility construction and customer service in a planning horizon. To overcome computational challenges, the CA model determines the optimal facility density in the spatiotemporal continuum. Then we propose a tube model to discretize the resulting continuous facil- ity density function into a set of time-varying facility location trajectories. To enforce consistency in facility location over time, an iterative regulation procedure based on a penalty method is applied. We present convergence properties of the proposed proce- dure and further derive conditions under which the CA approach and the tube model yield tight approximation error bounds. We conduct a series of numerical experiments to illustrate the applicability and computational performance (e.g., accuracy and conver- gence) of the proposed modeling framework, first via comparison with discrete model counterparts using hypothetical data, and then via application to an empirical case for the state of Illinois. Our results showthat the proposed method effectively solves the dynamic facility location problem to reasonable accuracy. Various managerial insights are also drawn.},

abstract = {Railroads have long been serving the largest portion of freight ton-miles in the U.S. freight shipment market. The rising demand for rail transportation is expected to continue in the foreseeable future, and considerable network congestion and inefficiency will result. Thus, a systematic methodology is needed to predict freight flow concentrations and congestion patterns in the rail network. A customized network assignment model for rail freight shipment demand is proposed; in this model, single- and double-track lines are represented by an equivalent directed graph. A railroad-specific link cost function adjusted for single and double tracks is developed to capture traffic delay, and an adapted convex combination algorithm is developed to find the shipment routing equilibrium. This model is applied to an empirical case study for the U.S. rail network with national freight shipment demand in 2007. The resulting freight flow pattern is visualized graphically and validated with empirical data. The proposed modeling framework could be used to help public agencies and private companies predict rail network traffic and develop infrastructure investment strategies to reduce adverse social impacts imposed by rail traffic delay.},

This paper first proves the Gersho's conjecture (1979) which states if the inbound transportation cost is ignored, the optimal shape of each service region should be a regular hexagon. When inbound transportation cost becomes non-negligible, however, we show that a tight upper bound can be achieved by a type of elongated cyclic hexagons. A cost lower bound based on relaxation and idealization is also obtained. We can derive analytical formulas for the upper and lower bounds, and the gap between them turns out to be within 0.3{\%}. This strongly suggests that the elongated cyclic hexagon is very close to, and highly likely to be, truly optimal. We further conduct numerical studies to illustrate the impact of service region shapes, and to verify the analytical findings.},

Davis 2 49 ABSTRACT 50 51 Recently, there has been a trend among toll road agencies to index their tolls to inflation, giving 52 rise to the question of how past tolls compared with inflation. To answer this, a database including all toll 53 roads in the United States since 1950 was developed. The database was used analyze historical national 54 average per mile toll rates for passenger cars and commercial vehicles and compare these rates with rates 55 of inflation. Historical toll road operation trends including the annual number of agencies and centerline 56 mileage since 1950 were also analyzed and discussed in context of changing Federal highway policies 57 over time. To consider inflation from both the perspective of drivers and toll agencies, both the U.S. 58 Bureau of Labor Statistics' national-level All Urban Consumers Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Federal 59 Highway Administration construction price indices were used for comparison. It was found that, 60 considering typical published electronic or cash toll rates, the national average annual toll increase since 61 1960 is 3.1 percent for passenger cars and 3.6 percent for commercial vehicles. This compares to an 62 average annual national CPI increase of 4.0 percent and construction price increase of 3.9 percent in this 63 period. While current national average toll rates remain significantly lower than the inflation rate, the gap 64 has narrowed in recent years especially considering commercial vehicle tolls and the drop in construction 65 prices following the recent recession. 66 67 68 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Most signal timing design documents focus their attention on critical parameters such as cycle, offset, and splits, but provide little guidance on other coordination parameters. The choice of settings for those parameters is consequently based on opinion more often than quantitative results. The force-off mode (fixed or floating) and the use of fully-actuated coordination (or " early yield ") are two such parameters. In this study, software-in-the-loop simulation was carried out to evaluate the impact of these two design parameters on coordinated system performance. Four alternative volume scenarios were simulated that explored a variety of demand conditions based on varying demand for the main-street and side-street movements. When side street volume approaches capacity, there are operational benefits for the associated phases, particularly when main street volumes are below capacity. Some modest improvements in individual movement average delays are observed even when the main street volumes are also near capacity. Fixed force-off and fully actuated coordination reduce the delay of noncoordinated phases. Coordinated phase delay and arterial travel times are not affected. The paper concludes by recommending that default coordinated intersection designs should feature detection on all phases and be configured for fixed force-offs and fully actuated coordination.},

abstract = {The double crossover diamond (DCD) (also known as the diverging diamond interchange) was first introduced conceptually to engineers and planners in the United States less than a decade ago. The concept has been spreading rapidly since that time; as of July 2013, DCDs had been constructed in 19 locations in eight states and had been studied in countless other projects nationwide. Nearby frontage roads pose operational challenges for all interchanges, and DCD geometry intensifies this problem. Reverse curvature for crossover points reduces the storage length between ramps and nearby frontage roads in DCDs. The crossover roundabout concept was conceived as a potential solution to this challenge. Instead of a signalized crossover point (as in a DCD), a five-legged roundabout was proposed for the intersecting arterial, frontage road, and ramps. A crossover roundabout would function essentially like any other roundabout except that it would adjoin an arterial roadway with travel directions flipped on one side. The operational and safety benefits of typical roundabouts are expected to apply to crossover roundabouts; no new driver behaviors must be learned. Variations of crossover roundabout interchanges are possible: one crossover roundabout could adjoin half of a DCD, or two crossover roundabouts could form a complete interchange. Interchanges with two crossover roundabouts would look like typical double-roundabout diamond inter-changes with the arterial road directions flipped between the roundabouts. Crossover roundabouts are not required to contain frontage roads to function. Microsimulation and cost estimations have shown the concept to have merit; crossover roundabouts can combine the best attributes of DCDs and roundabouts.},

These inventories and projections are provided to ACCRI researchers for a 2006 baseline year (31.3 million flights) and future years to 2050. They are computed using the FAA's Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT), designed to assess interdependencies between aviation-produced noise, emissions and fuel burn. The operational data comprising the 2006 inventories cover roughly 80{\%} of global operations, including all commercial operations following Instrument Flight Rules. Future projections represent a range of scenarios that consider both aircraft technology and system-wide operational improvements. This paper discusses the baseline 2006 data, as well as the method for forecasting future operational data. The paper also overviews the AEDT methods for computing aircraft performance, including the resultant fuel burn and emissions. Aggregate fuel burn and emissions inventory data are provided.},

While the society derives significant benefits from rail transport of hazardous materials, the associated accident risks must be appropriately managed. There is growing interest from the government, railroad industry and public to optimize all approaches to effectively reduce hazardous materials transportation risk. A hazardous materials release incident can be due to various accident causes, among which broken rails are the most frequent causes. Ultrasonic rail defect inspection is commonly used to prevent broken-rail-caused train accidents, thereby reducing hazardous materials transportation risk. However, little prior research has been conducted to quantify the relationship between hazardous materials release risk and rail defect inspection frequency, nor how to optimize rail inspection schedules to maximize risk reduction across a range of resource availability. In this paper, a decision support tool is developed to determine the optimal rail defect inspection frequency of different track segments in order to reduce route risk in the most cost-efficient manner. The methodology and results are intended to assist decision makers for local, regional and system-wide risk management of hazardous materials transportation by rail.},

abstract = {This paper discusses the creation of a practical modeling approach that integrates land use and transportation demand to quantify environmental sustainability under various land development regimes. This includes a novel approach that combines a logit model and multi-criteria evaluation (MCE) with the goal of projecting future residential population and employment distributions for status quo and idealized urban forms (sprawl, compact, and multinucleated). A sustainability index is created to measure key performance indicators comparing the sustainability of potential urban forms. The results of this index validate prior expectations that a compact urban form minimizes harmful environmental emissions from transportation by reducing the length of commuter trips while sprawl has the opposite effect. Surprisingly, the multinucleated urban form produces results similar to the status quo scenario indicating that it may not be a desirable alternative for reducing the overall harmful emissions from automobile usage. The poor performance is partially driven by a lack of explicit transit ridership behavior. These results reveal that the sustainability of urban patterns in a sprawled city like Windsor is reliant on their ability to encourage alternate modes of transportation.},

abstract = {The North Carolina Level of Service (NCLOS) methodology provides a planning-level assessment of transportation facilities through a generally faithful implementation of the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) to derive service volume estimates and performance expectations, with a few minor deviations from the HCM 2010. Implemented in the NCLOS software tool, the method gives a visual representation of traffic volume plotted against the various measures of effectiveness for each facility type. The graphical output shows the feasible performance range from the best to the worst case scenarios for each facility type in North Carolina based on different default values, as well as an average default scenario. The user-defined subject facility is evaluated within that range of values to give the user a direct assessment of the performance. The user can conduct a sensitivity analysis of various scenarios by altering the input values to represent possible design considerations for a particular highway. The tool also enables the user to produce a numerical report detailing the results of the analysis, as well as the ability to export the calculated capacity to transportation planning software and travel demand models. The main contributions of this paper are the NCLOS methodology itself, as well as extensive work on default value development. The paper further provides an example application to an urban street segment case and a two-lane highway facility, with the latter offering interesting insights in the behavior of the three different performance measures in that method. Overall, NCLOS is a powerful tool to allow quick planning-level assessment of the capacities of various road segments.},

abstract = {A decision framework was developed for context-sensitive planning within the roadside right-of-way in Michigan. This framework provides a roadside suitability assessment model that may be used to support integrated decision-making and policy level considerations for right-of-way use and development. The model accommodates a broad range of potential types of non-traditional developments, while considering a diverse range of roadside contextual features, including land use (current and future), land cover, environmental features, natural resources, and plant and animal habitats, among other features. The primary function of the model was to identify the area(s) along a highway corridor that are most (or least) suitable for development within the roadside right-of-way. This is performed using geographic information systems to calculate a roadside suitability index for each area along a corridor. The suitability index provides a relative indication of the overall suitability for a particular development within the roadside right-of-way. The roadside suitability assessment was demonstrated using a 20-mile pilot section of Interstate 94 in Kalamazoo and Calhoun Counties in southwest Michigan. Four types of non-traditional ROW development were considered for the corridor, including solar panels, wind turbines, agriculture/farming, and " green " infrastructure (i.e., stream or wetland mitigation, etc.). The resulting suitability index scores for the pilot corridor were generally consistent with standard land-use planning considerations.},

The tangible method 41 consists of two parts. At first, it is assumed that the probability is equal everywhere in 42 the sea. The average probability of piracy is estimated. Then, an adjusting coefficient is 43 proposed to revise the probability of piracy in each trip. The adjusting coefficient of 44 each trip is related to the average number of piracy in every grid which is defined in 45 Geographic Information System (GIS) and come across by the trip. Finally, a numerical 46 example of a trip from Shanghai to the Republic of Kenya is used to illustrate the 47 application of the proposed method.

abstract = {While taxiing, aircraft are powered by their main engines. This paper estimates the potential reductions in costs and emissions that could be achieved with tugs or an electric motor embedded in the landing gear to propel aircraft on the ground. The use of tugs would result in the avoidance of {\$}20/ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions if the measure were adopted for all domestic flights. Estimates of average net savings for airlines vary from {\$}100 per flight at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City to a loss of {\$}160 per flight in Honolulu, Hawaii. Electric taxiing would save between {\$}30 and {\$}240/ton of CO2 emissions avoided. Either approach could reduce CO2 emissions from domestic flights in the United States by about 1.5 million tons each year, or about 1.1{\%} of the total emissions in 2006. If the switch were limited to large narrow-body aircraft on domestic service at the busiest airports in the United States, the total reduction in emissions would be 0.5 million tons of CO2 annually, accompanied by savings of {\$}100/ton. Air quality benefits associated with lower main engine use were monetized by using the air pollution emission experiments and policy model and ranged from more than {\$}500 per flight in the New York City area to just more than {\$}20 per flight in the Dallas–Fort Worth, Texas, area. The analysis also demonstrates that emissions reductions from different interventions (e.g., single-engine taxiing and the use of tugs) are often not independent of each other and therefore cannot be combined in a simple way.},

abstract = {Convective weather is known to reduce airspace capacity, but the extent of the impact is not well understood. Understanding how weather impacts terminal area capacity is essential for quantifying the uncertainty in weather forecast, determining how accurately the weather needs to be forecast, for developing an optimal mitigation strategy. Prior research has focused on the overlap between convective weather cells and air routes, but has not sufficiently analyzed the differences that arise due to factors such as aircraft types and pilot behavior. This paper examines the interactions between convective weather and aircraft trajectories in the arrival airspace surrounding Chicago O'Hare International Airport. Case studies based on operational data are used to determine potentially relevant operational factors, and a predictive model is built using these factors to forecast if a flight will pass through hazardous weather. The results of the analysis suggest that these operational factors are secondary compared to the weather itself in determining whether a pilot will deviate from or penetrate hazardous weather.},

This research, using historical data, quantifies the impact on flight predictability of one airport's enhancement of infrastructure capacity. A case study using statistical methodologies, including cluster analysis of national airspace days and quantile regression of flights, identifies how deployment of a fifth runway at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia affected the predictability of flight arrivals. The analysis identifies four scenarios-defined according to the level of national airspace strain and terminal airspace weather disruption-for which inclusion of the fifth runway in the runway configuration is associated with either improvement or degradation in predictability. If broad gains are to be made in improving predictability for the national airspace, then capacity enhancements may offer a limited contribution to what must be a multifaceted solution.},

This exemption leads to a biased allocation that favors longer flights over shorter flights and alters an otherwise fair allocation. In this paper we presented two algorithms to reduce the exemption bias through speed control. The first algorithm attempts to assign the maximum possible delay achievable through speed control to the exempt flights. The second algorithm begins by prescribing the maximum possible delay to exempt flights but works to improve on this allocation by acting to fill holes in the schedule with speed controlled exempt flights whenever possible. Both algorithms demonstrated considerable delay transfer relative to distance based Ration-by-Schedule, however the second one also revealed some ability to improve throughput.},

Since the mission was estab- lished as a National Park Service site, visitors have arrived at the park primarily by personal vehicle. Reducing the number of motor- ized vehicles near the historic missions and promoting alterna- tive transportation options for visitors will help protect resources and enhance the visitor experience. The first bikesharing system in Texas, San Antonio B-Cycle, was launched in 2011 in downtown San Antonio. Shortly afterward, partners in the city of San Antonio's Office of Sustainability, San Antonio Bike Share, and the National Park Service's Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance program proposed a linear expansion of the bikeshare system from downtown, south along the San Antonio River and a newly built recreation trail, to connect to the park. A successful project proposal was developed for an FTA grant; in 2012 the city was awarded {\$}324,000 and the fol- lowing year received an additional {\$}295,774. This case study documents the process for expanding the San Antonio urban municipal bikeshare system in a nontraditional linear way, within a national park, by lever- aging community partnerships. The study presents contextual infor- mation on the local setting and its transportation challenges, identifies relevant strategic initiatives prompting citywide improvements, sum- marizes the bikesharing concept, and details project development steps. The study concludes with analysis of usage data, which indi- cates project success and distills project challenges and key findings into a useful tool for other bikeshare implementation or expansion efforts.},

abstract = {It has recently been shown that network-wide averages of traffic variables can be used to describe current operating conditions on urban traffic networks. Furthermore, reproducible relationships between these variables can describe network dynamics and help inform large-scale traffic control strategies to improve network efficiency. Such relationships, like the Network or Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram that relates average vehicle flow and density, have been shown to exist, but they remain notoriously difficult to estimate. This work proposes how data from mobile probe vehicles can be used to estimate relevant network-wide traffic variables, including average vehicle flow, density, speed, number of vehicles circulating and exit flow. The method requires very little data—just the distances traveled by probes at various times and counts at fixed locations. The former piece of information is becoming increasingly available through advances in Intelligent Transportation Systems, GPS and mobile computing. The latter can be estimated by combining probe data with fixed detector sources. In addition, the uncertainty of these measurements can be estimated using data from the probe vehicles themselves. This information can be used to monitor traffic in real-time or even directly estimate the MFD and other network-wide relationships. This methodology is tested on a micro-simulated network and has been shown to be very accurate when mobile probe penetration rates reach about 20{\%}.},

The estimated models are then used in an algorithm that assigns households to locations in the Los Angeles County. Daily Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) of each household are assigned in this way to the parcel the household is assigned using the algorithm. The method illustrated here shows the feasibility of doing this assignment using millions of parcels and households. It also shows that the results are reasonable and that it is possible to estimate VMT at specific locations and for spatially disaggregate jurisdictions, enabling the assessment of VMT responsibility and associated policies at very fine levels of resolution.

abstract = {This work addresses the real-time problem of managing takeoff and tending operations during traffic disturbances at a busy terminal control area (TCA). An important objective of traffic controllers is the minimization of delay propagation, which may reduce the aircraft travel time and the energy consumption. To improve the effectiveness of air traffic monitoring and control in a busy TCA, this paper presents an advanced optimization-based decision support system and compares centralized and rolling horizon approaches. The possible aircraft conflict detection and resolution actions were viewed as aircraft timing and routing decisions. The problem was modeled by an alternative graph formulation (i.e., a detailed model of air traffic flows in the TCA) and solved by scheduling and rerouting algorithms. The paper also proposes a new mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) formulation to compute (near) optimal scheduling and routing solutions. The paper compares the tirst-in, first-out (FIFO) rule, used as a surrogate for the dispatchers' behavior, a truncated branch and bound algorithm for aircraft scheduling with fixed routes, a tabu search algorithm for combined aircraft scheduling and rerouting, and the MILP formulation solved via a commercial solver. Computational experiments are presented for practical-sized instances from Milano Malpensa Airport in Milan, Italy. Disturbed traffic situations were generated by simulating various sets of delayed landing and departing aircraft. A detailed analysis of the experimental results demonstrates that the solutions produced by the optimization algorithms are of a remarkably better quality compared with the FIFO rule, in relation to delay and travel time minimization.},

abstract = {Recent work has shown that an innate instability exists on urban traffic networks that causes congestion to tend toward inhomogeneous spatial distributions. This can lead to less consistent and reproducible relationships between average flow and density across a network (known commonly as the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram or MFD). Since well-defined MFDs show promise in the design and control of urban networks, it is important to find ways to avoid this unstable behavior. The present paper explores how well traffic signals with adaptive green durations might be able to mitigate this instability and provide more consistent MFDs. A family of adaptive signal control strategies is examined on two abstractions of an idealized grid network using an interactive simulation and analytical model. The results suggest that adaptive traffic signals should provide a stabilizing influence, which increases average flows and decreases the likelihood of gridlock, when the network is moderately congested. The benefits in moderately congested states increase with the adaptivity of the signals. However, when the network is extremely congested, vehicle movements become more constrained by downstream congestion and queue spillbacks than by traffic signals, and adaptive traffic signals appear to have little to no effect on the network or MFD. In this latter case, other strategies should be used to mitigate the instability, like adaptively routing drivers to avoid locally congested regions. These results are consistent with simulations of more realistic adaptive signal control schemes that have been studied in the literature.},

(2) What are the differences between estimated and routed distances for stages? (3) Is it worth it to switch from self-estimated distances to technological solutions in national travel surveys with a comparison between GPS and route-recording?

Secondly, route-recording provides reliable and valid distance measures and is one way to overcome the difficulty in participants distance estimates. Thirdly, in its current form, it is not yet an alternative to GPS in national travel surveys, if one is interested in the actual routes travelled by survey participants.

However, the multiple screening technologies and different speeds of passengers lead to unpredictable, and sometimes long waiting times. Security agencies and airport managers must thus find ways to minimize checkpoint screening times without compromising the security of aviation transportation. This paper introduces an analytic model that derives the distribution of completion times for passengers through a security checkpoint given its architecture, passenger profiles, and expected service times at different checkpoint components. By varying the model's parameters and checkpoint architecture, security agencies and airport managers can quickly understand how the end-to-end completion times of passengers are affected by policy changes and checkpoint reconfigurations. The model can also be used to forecast the performance of future checkpoint architectures utilizing new components and polices. We demonstrate the utility of the model by analyzing a prototypical security checkpoint.},

Measuring and evaluating the large scale passenger crowd in the subway network is 35 very important for both operators and passengers. This paper describes an attempt to develop passenger crowd 36 index for subway network. The real time passenger traffic data was collected via video surveillance, laser 37 detector and automatic fare collection system. The density, speed and flow data were extracted from different 38 data sources. The crowd index was modeled with three variables: the intensity of the crowd, the scale of the 39 crowd and the duration of the crowd. The crowd index was calculated at four hierarchies: facility, station, line 40 and network. The crowd index allows cross-sectional and time series comparisons. The developed index was 41 suggested as congestion intensity evaluation, early warning and quick response measures for crowd monitoring 42 and control especially at condition of sudden outburst large scale passenger flow. The model has been applied 43 in Beijing based on the project of internet of things in Beijing urban railway network.

One such outcome has been a sharp increase in foreclosure rates with 4 associated economic and social effects on households, neighborhoods, and local governments. 5 As mobility costs are inextricably linked to housing locations, the relationship between transport 6 costs and housing costs is a component of neighborhood-level economic condition. Although 7 many studies have mapped housing and or transportation affordability, the definition of 8 affordable is typically established by 'rules of thumb' or existing policy. 9 This study expands on these definitional studies with an empirical analysis to test 10 whether the 'rules of thumb' can help predict levels of an outcome indicator of unaffordability: 11 mortgage foreclosures. Using data from the Research Triangle Region of North Carolina, the 12 analysis finds a positive association between high housing and high vehicle ownership and 13 foreclosure rates, suggesting that these factors may contribute to negative neighborhood-level 14 economic outcomes. The findings support the case for integrated planning, policy, and programs 15 to better coordinate the transportation and housing sectors as part of improving economic 16 sustainability and community resilience.},

abstract = {The design of pedestrian crossings is a complex problem that must consider various factors. The basic criterion for determining the choice of a particular type of pedestrian crossing is traffic safety. To improve traffic safety, typical zebra crossings are being reconstructed, usually with implementation of refuge median islands or traffic signals. However, traffic engineers cannot properly take into account the influence of a type of pedestrian crossing on capacity and traffic progression as negative consequences for both pedestrians and vehicles. A study was conducted on the influence of various types of midblock pedestrian crossings on road capacity. Zebra crossings, crossings with refuge median islands, and signalized crosswalks were analyzed. For the evaluation, a simulation model was built in VISSIM and calibrated with research results on driver and pedestrian behavior. Empirical research confirmed the strong influence of regulations and pedestrian crossing types on the behavior of drivers. The results show that willingness to give right of way on urban streets influences capacity reduction and delays. Taking as a basic criterion overall delay for both vehicles and pedestrians, volume limits for implementation of a pedestrian crossing with a median island or traffic signals are proposed.},

The progression adjustment factor in HCM is only descripted by the arrival types. Thus, in a planning scenario, the planner is not able to determine the progression adjustment factor according to the proposed traffic demand and signal timing plan. The upstream filtering adjustment factor in HCM is defined as a function only of the volume-to-capacity ratio of the upstream signal. This is not sufficient. For overcoming both problems mentioned above, some useful derivations which can be used as a default solution given the traffic demand and signal setting in a planning scenario are presented.

abstract = {The capacity of a freeway is traditionally considered as a constant value in traffic engineering. In reality, capacities vary according to external conditions such as dry or wet road surfaces, daylight or darkness, and to the prevailing travel purpose of drivers on the freeway. Even under constant external conditions different capacities can be observed on freeways because of variations in driver behaviors. A capacity in this sense is no longer a constant value. Empirical analyses of traffic flow patterns show that this type of capacity can be treated as Weibull distributed. Using the distribution function of capacities, the probability of traffic breakdowns and thus the reliability of the freeway can be estimated. Up to now stochastic capacities have been mainly analyzed at specific points which are considered as bottlenecks. The stochastic relationship between the adjacent bottlenecks has not been taken into account. Furthermore, if a long segment of a freeway without clearly defined bottlenecks is analyzed, no methods are available for estimating the distributed capacities of several combined bottlenecks along a freeway. This paper introduces a concept dealing with the stochastic interpretation of capacity and breakdown probability within a larger freeway network. The stochastic methodology presented delivers a theoretical average capacity and the probability of breakdowns for freeway segments with different lengths. The methodology can also be used to identify the effects of consecutive freeway segments and bottlenecks such as on-ramps, off-ramps, and weaving areas with different characteristics. Using the proposed method, it is possible to determine the probability distribution function of breaking down from free flow into congested flow for a freeway segment as a function of the average volume or density. Using the methodology presented in this paper, the risk of disturbance of traffic flow along a freeway segment or within a freeway network can be analyzed.},

abstract = {1 There is a critical need for increased understanding on how transportation impacts the lives of low-2 income people. We surveyed 352 mostly low-income and Latino residents in four communities 3 representing the range of transportation environments in Massachusetts. The survey was followed up 4 with in-depth focus groups conducted within each community surveyed. Subjects were mostly car and 5 transit users, and few depended on walking or biking despite living in walkable communities. The cost of 6 both car ownership and transit were major problems and many reported they had gone without other basic 7 necessities in order to pay for transportation. Many could not afford a car and or did not have a driver's 8 license. Focus group participants reported they waited for months if there was insufficient money to pay 9 for car repairs. Subjects could not access jobs that public transit did not reach, and limited service hours 10 and infrequency of transit service were commonly-reported problems. Many subjects reported having 11 been late for work, health care appointments, or school activities because of transportation-related issues. 12 People without cars often had to bargain with others to get rides. These findings suggest that public transit 13 service can mitigate the need for a car, but the service that is provided must be affordable, frequent, and 14 extensive. Affordable transportation options are important for social mobility, and can help low-income 15 Latinos better meet basic needs and access necessary services. We should be cautious of the ways in 16 which we aim to strive for affordability. 17 18 INTRODUCTION 19 Much of what is known about the travel-related behaviors and the needs of low-income Latinos (and other 20 low-income households) is largely based on analyses of large datasets. While useful for many purposes, 21 travel data collected through the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) focuses 22 almost exclusively on journeys to work and does not provide information on the non-work travel 23 characteristics of respondents. Transportation data is sometimes collected at the local level through 24 instruments like on-board transit surveys, but these methods may fail to reach low-income and Spanish-25 speaking travelers in substantial numbers (1). The purpose of our research is to better understand the 26 transportation behaviors, challenges, and needs of low-income Latinos residents in Massachusetts by 27 speaking directly to this population through a combination of door-to-door surveys and focus groups. 28 In response to travel-related research and data gaps identified by a local Latino advocacy 29 organization, this study examines how low-income Latinos in four Massachusetts cities with varying 30 access to public transit service travel about their daily lives. Specifically, we are interested in how low-31 income Latinos use transportation to access employment, school, grocery stores, family, and other 32 important destinations. The data gathered through both the door-to-door surveys and focus group 33 facilitation demonstrate the heavy toll transportation challenges take on the budget, time, and quality of 34 life of an oft-marginalized population. Many low-income Latinos we spoke with lacked good 35 transportation options, and were frequently forced to choose between expensive dependence on 36 automobiles and time-consuming, insufficient public transit. The consequences of this transportation 37 dilemma we documented were severe: many respondents reported being late for work or medical 38 appointments, needing to negotiate and barter with others for rides, and having to forego the purchase of 39 basic necessities in order to pay for travel. In communities with high-quality transit service, public 40 transportation provides essential support for accessing routine activities and employment. But in areas 41 where public transit service is less reliable, a persistent tension exists between a reliance on automobiles 42 to get around and the financial burdens associated with car ownership. We conclude that these 43 transportation dilemmas adversely affect people's access to basic needs, broader opportunities, and 44 overall quality of life. Our results are useful for clarifying the transportation burdens of marginalized or 45 vulnerable populations, especially where service is limited and transportation costs are rising. Public 46 policymakers and transportation planners need to provide low-income Latinos with better and more 47 affordable transportation options for the sake of both social equity and workforce development (2). 48 49 PREVIOUS RESEARCH 50 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

TOTEMS generates a probe 11 vehicle's second-by-second location, speed and acceleration. Data from 41 trials of a 12 conventional gasoline vehicle are compared with microsimulation model output for a 13 signalized urban arterial and for a stop-controlled urban collector. 14 15 Adjustments to TransModeler car-following parameters did not adequately replicate the 16 operational characteristics of the TOTEMS vehicles. However, adjustments to free-flow 17 model parameters did more closely replicate real-world behavior. Specifically, default free-18 flow parameters governing the change in acceleration as a target link speed is approached 19 were found to exaggerate driver aggressiveness. 20 21 Guidelines were developed for adjusting default free-flow parameters to more accurately 22 reflect the operating mode of a real-world vehicle using tailpipe CO and PM 2.5 emission 23 rates as comparison metrics. For greater accuracy, analysts should be aware of the 24 limitations of using the default free-flow microsimulation parameter values; the 25 dependency of tailpipe emissions on acceleration rates suggests the need for changes in 26 default parameterizations to more accurately reflect real-world behavior.},

The calculation of travel time is 3 deployed by volume-delay functions, a sub-model of route assignment procedure, using 4 the correlation between increasing numbers of vehicles on a road and the road's 5 restrictive capacity. By investigating existing volume-delay functions, a clear gap is seen, 6 demonstrating that current functions are not suited to reflect the empirically known large 7 impact of trucks on passenger car travel times. This issue becomes crucial when transport 8 models are used to reflect future scenarios where goods transportation is expected to be 9 increased greatly, and when transport models cover passenger and commercial traffic 10 together. 11 This article presents a new volume-delay function which successfully covers trucks' 12 impact on traffic flow in the case of Germany very well, and with slightly deviations also 13 North America.

While some studies have suggested that accelerating mildly minimizes the vehicle fuel consumption levels, this study demonstrates that this is not the case. The research presented in this paper develops a dynamic programming and path-finding algorithm to compute the fuel-optimal throttle level input for acceleration maneuvers. A constant throttle model is compared with two variable throttle models that are based on state-of-the-art path-finding algorithms: namely, the Dijkstra and the A-star algorithms. These methods were compared using two measures of effectiveness - model accuracy and computational efficiency. The results demonstrate that a variable throttle model minimizes the fuel consumed relative to a constant throttle model, but is computationally complex. The optimum solution computed using a constant throttle model is up to 10 percent fuel saving than the way we normally drive. It can also be seen that the A-star algorithm is a trade-off between the fast and less accurate constant throttle model and the slow and more accurate Dijkstra model.},

It is therefore important to understand the potential changes in order to accommodate adaptation planning for cycling. The authors propose a framework to model the potential changes in bicycle flow in London by developing a negative binomial count-data model and by incorporating future projected weather data from downscaled global climate models, a first such approach in this area. High temporal resolution (hourly) of the model allows the authors to decipher changes not only on an annual basis, but also on a seasonal and daily basis. The authors find that there will be a modest 0.5{\%} increase in the average annual hourly bicycle flows in London's network in 2041 over year 2011. The increase is primarily driven by a higher temperature due to a changed climate, although the increase is tempered due to a higher rainfall in the future. The annual average masks the differences of impacts between seasons though - bicycle flows are expected to increase during the summer and winter months (by 1.6{\%}), decrease during the spring (by 2{\%}) and remain nearly unchanged during the autumn. Leisure cycling will be more affected by a changed climate, with an increase of around 7{\%} during the weekend and holiday cycle flows in the summer months.},

abstract = {Motor vehicles are one of the major sources of air pollution in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. The government took various policies to convert the petroleum vehicles on road to run on compressed natural gas (CNG), which allows both air quality improvements and energy security benefits. One of the market friendly policies to encourage the fuel switch was to increase the price differential between CNG and petrol and diesel. This has allowed a wide-scale adoption of CNG as the fuel of choice. However, several years into the policy, there is now a widespread belief among the policymakers that the CNG conversion may have increased car ownership and car travel due to their lower running costs, resulting in more congestion and a reversal of the strategy is on the cards. It is therefore important to test the hypothesis whether CNG conversion had genuinely increased car ownership and car travel in Dhaka city. This paper presents the results of a questionnaire survey and an econometric intervention analysis to understand the impact of CNG conversion on car ownership and car travel in Dhaka. Attention is also given to disentangle the self-selection and price-induced travel effects of CNG conversion. Results show that ownership did not increase, but travel of on-road vehicles increased due to the CNG policy. However, additional congestion costs are still around one half of the health benefits brought about by the policy. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

In order to evaluate strategies and policies, forecasting tools have been 4 adopted by institutions. Currently, the estimation of traffic emissions is based on static models, in which the 5 amount of pollutant is computed as a function of average parameters (average speed). 6 The well-known traffic increase of the recent years has significantly changed the actual flow 7 conditions, producing a strong rise of interferences. As this facet affects the operating condition of each vehicle, 8 the use of a standard emission model at high traffic interference can lead to some inaccuracies. In such cases, 9 instantaneous emission models introduce deeper capabilities; essentially, the pollutant prediction is directly tied 10 to the engine vehicle operation point in real-like traffic condition. This second modeling approach has been 11 adopted in the current work. A complete lumped parameter vehicle model has been built to be used as a virtual 12 on-road emission/fuel consumption test unit. Investigations have highlighted the dependence of emission level 13 and fuel consumption on drivers' behavior; indeed, the analysis took advantage of the experiments carried out in 14 the virtual reality laboratory: on a typical highway geometry, three different flow conditions have been 15 simulated. In the present study has been highlighted the relationship between drivers behavior and the emissions 16 of a diesel compact passenger car. Finally, in order to assess the differences between static and instantaneous 17 emission models, a comparative analysis has been carried out. 18 19 20},

The task is even more difficult for those who want to ensure 4 that TOD improves social equity. This research creates a " rating system " that measures the capacity for 5 equitable TOD within a station area by identifying easily quantifiable and comparable built, social and transit 6 attributes that reduce driving, increase transit ridership, and promote equity. 7 eTOD Score was piloted in Massachusetts due to the availability of vehicle-miles traveled (VMT) 8 data for validation. The rating system ranks station areas – half-mile buffers around rail stations and certain 9 bus stops – on three scales encompassing ten nationally-available indicators chosen based on their correlation 10 with VMT. The sub-scales for transit, orientation and development indicate the relative transit orientation of 11 a station area and which attributes most need improvement.

abstract = {This research explores whether LED roadway luminaire technologies are a viable future solution to providing roadway lighting. Roadway lighting enhances highway safety and traffic flow during limited lighting conditions. The purpose of this evaluation study is to determine the feasibility of transitioning from standard high pressure sodium (HPS) roadway luminaire to LED roadway luminaires on the state DOT-maintained highway system. This paper includes a technical and economic feasibility analysis of replacing high pressure sodium luminaires with LED luminaires along state routes. LED roadway lighting pilot sites across the state of Missouri were used to evaluate the performance of each LED luminaire. Economic Feasibility was analyzed using a Life Cycle Cost approach. The life cycle cost of each LED and HPS luminaire was then annualized in order for a fair comparison across all luminaires. The sensitivity each luminaire's annualized cost was also determined through an incremental sensitivity analysis. Based on the results of the technical feasibility analysis, only one luminaire conformed to the IES standards for moderately busy, medium pedestrian conflict with R3 pavement classification. One of the eight studied LED luminaires economically outperformed the existing HPS Life cycle cost. However, continual advances in LED luminaire performance can change the economic and technical feasibility of LED luminaires in this region.},

abstract = {Providing real-time and accurate travel time information of transit vehicles can be very helpful as it assists passengers in planning their trips to minimize waiting times. The purpose of this research is to develop and compare dynamic travel time prediction models which can provide accurate prediction of bus travel time in order to give real-time information at a given downstream bus stop using only global positioning system (GPS) data. Historical Average (HA), Kalman Filtering (KF) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models are considered and developed in this paper. A case has been studied by making use of the three models. Promising results are obtained from the case study, indicating that the models can be used to implement an Advanced Public Transport System. The implementation of this system could assist transit operators in improving the reliability of bus services, thus attracting more travelers to transit vehicles and helping relieve congestion. The performances of the three models were assessed and compared with each other under two criteria: overall prediction accuracy and robustness. It was shown that the ANN outperformed the other two models in both aspects. In conclusion, it is shown that bus travel time information can be reasonably provided using only arrival and departure time information at stops even in the absence of traffic-stream data.},

abstract = {1 In this paper, we focus on the accident messages displayed on freeway changeable message signs 2 (CMS), and study their effect on drivers' route choice behavior. Previous studies on the effect of 3 CMS messages have shown mixed results, due to differences in event types and modeling choices. 4 Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to ascertain the real effect of CMS accident messages, 5 and also to compare two commonly used statistical models. We calculate the proportion of total 6 flow heading to off-ramps or freeway interchanges (called " diversion rate " hereafter) at diverging 7 locations, and use the change in diversion rate as the indicator for behavior change. We first draw 8 insights from two case studies, and find that the effect of CMS accident messages on the diversion 9 rate is minor and the effect of visible congestion is dominant. We then compare two commonly 10 used statistical analyses, accounting for the effect of visible congestion. The correlation analysis 11 compares the diversion rate with and without CMS accident messages, while the causality analysis 12 compares the diversion rate right before and after CMS accident messages are turned on or off. 13 With empirical data from three study sites, we use the causality analysis to show that the real effect 14 of CMS accident messages on diversion rate is insignificant. However, the correlation analysis 15 shows positive correlation between CMS accident messages and diversion rate, indicating that this 16 analysis cannot be used to draw causal inferences and that other factors have played a role in 17 changing the diversion rate.},

Its ownership is founded on a public-private partnership, and its initial capitalization draws on the state's noncapital contribution in the form of PPP participation guarantees, private capital contributions from local and global investors, and its own bank deposits. iCoop's business model eliminates the state's need for PPP "subsidies" resulting from toll revenue shortfalls and converts them into additional debt capacity with returns for reinvestment. iCoop helps to lower the overall PPP financing costs und reduce perceived risks associated with greenfield construction financing. iCoop is also designed explicitly to mitigate key political risks underlying PPP projects. Through iCoop, the state can effectively increase its infrastructure debt capacity without jeopardizing its current debt limit and do so with no direct capital contributions. For global investors, iCoop provides a new vehicle to access a portfolio of infrastructure assets, thereby offering them the opportunity to further diversify their risks. iCoop gives a face to the much-talked-about infrastructure bank idea with a sound business rationale and a clear implementation strategy.},

ABSTRACT 1 Collecting travel times through Bluetooth detectors is becoming increasingly popular due to its 2 advantages of: (1) measuring travel time directly; (2) anonymous detection; (3) weatherproof; and (4) 3 cost-effectiveness. However, as with other AVI (automatic vehicle identification) technologies, 4 estimating average travel time based on data collected by Bluetooth detectors requires some form of filter 5 to identify and remove the outliers. 6 Existing real-time travel time outlier filtering algorithms are data driven models which rely on 7 measures of variance in the data obtained in the recent past to discriminate between outliers and valid 8 observations at the current time. However, these models typically perform poorly when travel times 9 change rapidly, such as when an incident occurs. In this paper, we propose a traffic flow filtering model 10 which can be applied as an enhancement to existing data-driven outlier detection algorithms as a 11 mechanism to improve outlier detection performance. 12 We describe the proposed model and then demonstrate its performance by incorporating the 13 model into two existing data driven outlier detection algorithms and applying the enhanced algorithms to 14 a dataset of freeway travel times collected by Bluetooth detectors. The application results indicate that the 15 proposed method is able to solve the problem of tracking sudden changes in travel times and enhance the 16 performance of the data-driven outlier detection algorithms.},

However, systematic studies and experiments regarding 4 emissions effects of eco-driving at intersections have been rare. This paper is intended to 5 evaluate effects of driving behaviors in the eco-driving, in reference to the deceleration at the 6 upstream, idling or turning off engine at the stop line, acceleration at the downstream, on 7 emissions. Instantaneous vehicle emission data from different driving behaviors emulating 8 various eco-driving scenarios are collected through field tests. After analyses of emission 9 characteristics of different driving behaviors at intersections, driving behavior models are 10 developed for deceleration at the upstream and acceleration at the downstream links, using 11 the emission modeling approach that incorporates the concept of Vehicle Specific Power 12 (VSP). In the application to the more comprehensive emission data collected in Beijing, 13 vehicle emission regularities and the emission-least eco-driving behaviors are identified. It is 14 demonstrated that total emissions of CO 2 , CO, NOx, and HC decrease with the increase of the 15 decelerating distance. Turning off the engine generates the least CO 2 , CO, NOx, and HC at 16 the stop line. Besides, at the downstream, total emissions of CO and NOx decrease with the 17 increase of the accelerating time. However, total emissions of CO 2 and HC are fluctuating 18 and the slowest acceleration does not produce the least CO 2 and HC. 19 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The findings suggest that firm growth is highly influenced by location attributes, which is expected from the perspective of land use transportation integrated (LUTI) models. Although the results are in line with previous empirical research, we could analyze a larger set of attributes compared to what is found in the literature.

SoMa is currently 4 comprised of a predominantly one-way street grid with long blocks of multi-lane arterial streets designed to carry 5 traffic from Downtown to the city's major regional freeway access points. With at least 48,000 housing units and 6 122,000 more jobs expected in this area, San Francisco has developed plans to aggressively reduce number of 7 general purpose travel lanes on many streets to improve livability and better balance travel options amongst modes. 8 This paper presents analysis and findings of an effort to use quantitative analysis to identify the cumulative 9 transportation performance effects of these proposed changes. The paper presents a combination of activity-based 10 travel demand model, traffic microsimulation, and off-model analysis to describe one of the key problems identified 11 – that plans for the Core could lead to a " carmaggedon " scenario (i.e perpetual gridlock) where the forecast level of 12 auto demand " breaks " the Core network—a particular problem because of the negative impact perpetual gridlock 13 would have for transit operating at-grade. A range of strategies to reduce auto demand are evaluated for their 14 effectiveness, finding that demand management and mobility improvement strategies are essential.

Abstract 1 In recent years, Reinforcement Learning (RL), an Artificial Intelligence based learning method, has gained 2 some interest among researchers in solving control systems problems. Although RL methods have been 3 applied to different transportation problems such as ramp metering and traffic signal control; RL in its 4 conventional form, with discrete state space representation, lacks learning efficiency and becomes 5 intractable when applied to medium and large-scale transportation control problems. Continuous state space 6 representation in RL problems implies direct representation of the problem's continuous variables using 7 function approximation techniques that has the potential to addresses some of the challenges associated 8 with employing RL in large transportation networks. Function approximation methods, when properly 9 designed, have the potential to result in 1) faster learning, 2) better performance, and 3) easier design/set 10 up for RL control systems. In this paper, three function approximation techniques: k-nearest neighbor 11 weighted average, multi-layer perceptron neural network, and linear model tree are developed and 12 compared against the conventional table-based RL as a benchmark. The four approaches are applied to a 13 ramp metering case study in the city of Toronto. The approaches are tested on a microsimulation model and 14 compared using the following criteria: learning speed, design effort, computational requirements, and 15 network performance. It is concluded that, for RL problems, the linear model tree method provides the best 16 function approximation with minimal design effort given the noisy measurements in traffic control 17 applications with more than 10 times faster leaning speed over the conventional table-based RL methods.},

The PPP project consists of a motorway, which was previously a 8 single lane in each direction and was prone to many accidents and fatalities. During the early 9 phases there were many challenges to overcome as the procurement process was the first of its 10 kind in Finland, using private financing and open competition through public tendering. PPP 11 road projects were practiced internationally, but this project is one of Europe's earliest PPP road 12 projects coming to a completion. There are very few final results and evaluations of value for 13 money from completed PPP projects worldwide. The objective of the paper is to present the 14 results of Finland's first PPP road project. The paper will show the results of value for money 15 evaluation, lessons learned, overview of the tendering process, payment mechanism, challenges, 16 safety performance, and various aspects of the PPP model. Two other PPP projects are also 17 discussed in the paper. The methodology of this paper is from data collected by the client, 18 interim reports, and an official upcoming study using the results from PPP projects in Finland. 19 The results show that there was a positive outcome of value for money, significant safety and 20 environmental improvements, and a project completed significantly faster than traditional 21 methods.

The increased rate of car use especially in rich 3 developing countries has serious implications in terms of pollution, noise, and congestion. While 4 the struggle in the Western world focuses on the battle with automobiles and their dominance in 5 all aspects of daily lives, the developing countries in the Gulf, such as Qatar, face the dilemma of 6 serving tremendous growth in the travel demand constrained by limited land and inferior 7 infrastructure. 8 9 To address the fast growing transportation demands in the Qatari's urban areas, the government 10 introduced a major project, the Doha Metro Network. This metro system will ultimately consist 11 of four Metro lines with 98 stations serving the City of Doha (the capital of Qatar). The metro's 12 first phase is expected to be completed in 2020 in order to be ready for the Qatar 2022 FIFA 13 World Cup, while the final phase is expected to be completed in 2026. In order to benefit from 14 this new Metro line in reducing traffic congestion problems in Doha, the Metro line must attract 15 sufficient commuters especially those depending extensively on private cars. This clearly means 16 that this new service must be attractive with a reasonable level of service to attract large numbers 17 of car users to switch to the new Metro. This goal can be achieved by a clear understanding of 18 the user's needs and expectations. 19 20 This paper aim as providing a comprehensive study that strive to identify and quantify the 21 significant factors affecting commuters' perspectives, preferences and tendencies to use this new 22 Metro Network for their daily trips in the future. The data used for the analysis was obtained 23 from a self-reported questionnaire survey carried out among 316 commuters living in Doha. To 24 achieve the objectives of this study, different data mining techniques were employed including 25 conditional distributions and two-way analysis. In addition, logistic regression and structural 26 equation modeling approaches were developed. 27 28 The results revealed that the location of metro stations, the metro station's features, the metro's 29 features, gender, the number of daily trips, the purpose of trips, and the average duration of trips 30 in Doha were the significant factors that affected commuters' willingness/tendency to use the 31 new metro service of Doha. In addition, it was found that long distances between the metro 32 stations and the origin and final destination, the weather conditions in Qatar, and people 33 accustomed to using their private cars were the main self-reported reasons that might prevent 34 people living in Doha from using the new metro service. 35 36 The results of this study provide authorities and decision makers in Doha with valuable 37 information that should be taken into consideration prior to implementing the new metro service. 38 These proposed policies/suggestions, if applied, will contribute to the success of the new metro 39 system. 40 41},

abstract = {1 This research aims to make a comprehensive and objective comparison and assessment between 2 the relative significance of three crucial issues in the context of probabilistic network analysis 3 and prediction of static stochastic pattern of flow. 4 In recent years, there has been a growing recognition towards the advantage of path-5 based methods of stochastic traffic assignment (STA). It has been well established that explicit 6 treatment of path-flow variables allows application of more advanced random utility models in 7 analysis of transportation networks. This research is intended to investigate the question that to 8 what extent the size of generated path sets can affect prediction of flows. A simulated path 9 generation algorithm was applied to an illustrative network and the investigations showed that 10 the size of generated path sets only slightly affects the flow prediction. 11 Further investigations have also been conducted with respect to the relative importance of 12 model estimation and model specification in STA. In the literature of univariate STA, there has 13 been considerable attention to utilization of sophisticated choice models to address different 14 problems in this context including the problem of path overlapping. However, in most of these 15 researches the problem of estimating the single calibration parameter of these models has been 16 neglected and the models were studied using pre-specified parameters. A structured-parameter 17 paired combinatorial logit (PCL) assignment model along with a practical and heuristic method 18 of calibration is proposed in this study. The proposed model not only can represent the 19 correlation among path utilities, but also considers the fact that traveling between different 20 origin-destination (O-D) pairs may correspond to different levels of stochasticity. Results 21 showed that calibration of SUE models could more meaningfully affect the prediction of flow 22 than selection (specification) of the choice model.},

New approaches to sustainability and transportation pedagogies will 15 provide a galvanizing force for tomorrow's graduates, who must respond to concerns 16 about climate change and the environment, social equity, and an uncertain economy. 17 They will require an aptitude for both technical skills and collaborative leadership and 18 communication skills. 19 The course was guided by a framework founded in five themes from the literature 20 on sustainability education and transportation planning and engineering education: (1) 21 leading with sustainability's cornerstones of people, prosperity and planet, (2) sponsoring 22 a systems thinking approach to analyze transportation issues and potential solutions, (3) 23 incorporating knowledge from interdisciplinary resources, (4) promoting " softer " skills 24 including communication and leadership, and (5) emphasizing applied learning. The 25 themes aim to overcome institutional barriers and to better prepare students for the 26 rapidly evolving challenges they will encounter in the sustainability and transportation 27 fields. 28 Although the purpose of the project was to develop a framework and 29 institutionalize a sustainable transportation class at the graduate level, the student projects 30 had unforeseen impacts upon the community in furthering innovative technologies and 31 policies. Ultimately, the class was featured in the local progressive weekly newspaper as 32 starting a "sustainable transit revolution.

PM2.5 and CO concentrations were measured and compared across pedestrian, bus, and car modes during lunchtime and the afternoon peak hour within a 3-week time period on preselected round-trip routes. Variability in the concentration ratios of PM2.5 and CO for the selected transportation modes was quantified, and factors affecting variability in concentrations were identified. Exposure concentrations of transportation modes were sensitive to mode and were affected by factors such as vehicle ventilation and proximity to on-road emission sources. In general, pedestrian and bus modes had higher PM2.5 concentrations than did the car mode. However, the car mode had the highest average CO concentrations among the selected modes. Near-road pedestrian PM2.5 concentrations generally covaried with fixed site monitor (FSM) measurements, but there was little correlation between pedestrian CO concentrations and FSM data. Field studies such as this one are needed to develop input data for simulation models of population-based exposure to predict more accurately exposure concentrations for transportation modes.},

Measurements of carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and Particle Matter (PM10) were performed by the air quality monitoring net from CETESB (Environmental Agency of Sao Paulo State). High concentrations correlated with high density traffic (approximately 3,000 ± 1,000 vehicles per hour), especially during weekdays, and have a characteristic diurnal pattern with two peaks: at morning (06:00 to 9:00 h) and at afternoon (16:00 to 19:00 h). The emission factors (EFs) of pollutant species were heavily influenced by the pollutant species loads, so the total vehicle traffic and the fraction of HDV. The EF values for HDV were 3.5 ± 1.5 g/km, 1,427 ± 1,178 g/km, 9.2 ± 2.7 g/km, 0.290 ± 0.248 g/km, for CO, CO2, NOx and PM10 respectively, and for a temperature inside the tunnel of 20 – 25 °C. These values could be directly applicable to outside tunnel conditions because they are derived from pollutant species mass concentrations that are roughly a factor of only 2.5-3.5 higher than S{\~{a}}o Paulo typical urban concentrations. EF values of 5.8 ± 3.8 g/km, 219 ± 165 g/km, 0.3 ± 0.2 g/km, 0.178 ± 0.143 g/km, for CO, CO2, NOx and PM10 respectively, were obtained for LDV, assuming constant ratios between concentration increments of pollutant species x and trace CO and considering than the EF(CO)LDV were 1.5 times higher than the EF(CO)HDV. In the methodology used to determine inside tunnel EF estimates, parameters such as velocity of the air, cross section area and length of the tunnel and vehicles passing at one hour time interval were considered, and sensitivity analyses was done},

Hurwitz, Monsere, Marnell {\&} Paulsen 2 ABSTRACT 1 Many jurisdictions are using the flashing yellow arrow (FYA) to control protected/permissive left turns 2 (PPLTs). For cost and other reasons, some jurisdictions have or are considering implementing FYA with 3 a 3-section vertical head, displaying the flashing yellow indication in the same signal face as the protected 4 green arrow. The current MUTCD permits 3-section operation only in height-restricted locations for 5 permissive turns. This paper summarizes the comparison of driver performance with respect to 3-and 4-6 section FYA signal configurations gathered in a high-fidelity, motion-based driving simulator with 7 mobile eye-tracking equipment. The experiment controlled for the effects of the opposing traffic, the 8 presence and walking direction of pedestrians, and the signal head arrangement. A 24-intersection 9 simulated environment was created and 27 subjects completed the course, producing 620 permissive left-10 turn maneuvers for further analysis. Driver performance was measured by 1) average total eye-glance 11 durations at specific areas of interest and 2) the position of the pedestrian in the crosswalk when the driver 12 initiated the left-turn. No statistical differences were identified between the average fixation duration 13 when the FYA was presented with a 3-or 4-section signal head. The position of the pedestrian in the 14 crosswalk when the driver began the left-turn was not statistically different for three of the four pedestrian 15 walking directions presented. Overall, it would seem that measureable driver performance is not sensitive 16 to the vertical positioning of the FYA display in the permissive interval. 17 18 INTRODUCTION 19 When a separate lane is provided for left-turning vehicles, the interval during which drivers turn can be 20 described as either protected or permissive. In a protected interval, the left-turning driver has the 21 exclusive right-of-way and will face no other (legal) conflicts. In permissive operation, the driver may 22 turn only after yielding to other conflicting movements such as pedestrians, vehicles or bicycles. 23 Permissive intervals have historically been communicated to drivers with various traffic-signal 24 indications such as a circular green, flashing circular red, flashing circular yellow and a flashing yellow 25 arrow (FYA). Research funded by NCHRP demonstrated that the FYA indication was the most effective 26 of these displays for communicating permissive left-turns by most measures (1, 2). Subsequently, the 27 FYA display was included in the 2009 edition of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices 28 (MUTCD) (3). 29 30 To implement the FYA in protected/permissive operation for left-turns (PPLT), the 2009 31 MUTCD requires the use of the 4-section signal face (4D.20.03). As jurisdictions deploy the FYA, some 32 have or are considering a 3-section vertical head—displaying the flashing yellow indication in the same 33 signal face as the protected green arrow—for cost or other reasons. Three-section signal faces are 34 currently allowed for permissive-only (4D.18.03), protected-only (4D.19.03), flashing red operations 35 (4D.18.05) or when height or lateral restrictions prevent the use of a 4-section display in PPLT (4D.20.03 36 (H)). The requirement of four sections for protected-permissive operation would seem to suggest better 37 driver task performance with this arrangement. However, research confirming this suggestion is limited. 38 In the original FYA display research (1, 2) driver performance with respect to the number of sections in 39 signal head display was not examined and no other published research on this topic has been identified. A 40 search of TRB Research in Progress database identifies NCHRP 20-07-Task 283 is currently underway to 41 study shared yellow signal faces in the FYA by Dr. Noyce at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. 42 43 This paper compares driver performance with respect to 3-and 4-section FYA signal 44 configurations gathered in a high-fidelity, motion-based driving simulator with mobile eye-tracking 45 equipment for drivers making permissive left-turns. A 24-intersection simulated environment was created 46 and 27 subjects completed the course making 620 permissive left-turn maneuvers. Driver performance 47 was measured by average total eye-glance durations at specific areas of interest per intersection approach 48 and turning maneuver (left-turn pavement bay markings, the signal indication, the pedestrian and vehicle 49 waiting area, and the pedestrian signal heads) during the permissive operation.

abstract = {—Drivers' diversion decision behavior under expressway variable message signs that provide travel time of both an expressway route and a local street route is investigated. Both a conventional cross-sectional logit model and a mixed logit model are developed to model drivers' response. It is based on the data collected from a stated preference (SP) survey. The mixed logit model accounts for taste variations across individuals regarding certain alternative attributes (i.e. travel time and number of traffic lights) and correlations among repeated choices of the same respondent. Results show that travel time saving and driving experience serve as positive factors, while the number of traffic lights on the arterial road, expressway use frequency, being a mid-age driver and an employer-provided car driver serve as negative factors in diversion. The mixed logit model obviously outperforms the cross-sectional model in dealing with repeated choices regarding the goodness of fit criterion. The significance of standard deviations of random coefficients for travel time and number of traffic lights evidences the existence of taste variations across individuals. The findings of this study have implications for future efforts in driver behavior modeling and advanced traveler information system assessment.},

Reserved bus lanes are an option in some cases, but may not be 3 possible in others due to political, financial, and spatial constraints. Previous research into the 4 distribution of road space has developed ideas like intermittent bus lanes and bus lanes with 5 intermittent priority which reserve specific blocks in space-time for buses. However, all of 6 these would have non-negligible impacts on other traffic if implemented on a congested corridor. 7 We develop static and dynamic methods for distributing road space on a three lane arterial 8 street between buses and other vehicles while preserving a minimum level of performance for 9 buses. The static method allows a fixed percentage of vehicles to use the bus lane. We note 10 that the optimal value that minimizes passenger delays depends on the level of congestion and 11 demand scenario. A dynamic control strategy is developed based on a linear feedback approach 12 by utilizing speed of buses as a set point objective. This strategy is effective at maintaining 13 minimum bus performance and could represent a system optimal solution if bus occupancy levels 14 are high enough. The paper concludes by discussing implementation strategies and possible 15 challenges for such a control strategy.},

For urban roads, a GPS dataset which includes all taxi trips in New York 3 City is used. For highways, New Jersey Turnpike (NJTP) Automatic Vehicle Location data is 4 employed. Moreover, NJTP is divided into two sections as urban and suburban highway based 5 on urbanization level, time of day demands, and physical roadway features. Hence, the analysis 6 does not only compare the travel time patterns between highways and urban roads, but also 7 investigates the travel time characteristics along the same highway facility. First, the temporal 8 variation of travel times at both facility types are calculated and compared. Second, the travel 9 time distributions are extracted for different time periods and compared visually to determine the 10 distributional patterns. Last, the relationship between the average travel time and variability is 11 investigated. Travel time patterns not only differ between urban roads and highways, but major 12 differences in travel time characteristics can also be observed along the same highway. Higher 13 travel times correspond to lower reliability at the highways, yet correspond to higher reliability at 14 the urban roads. Overall, the findings suggest that attributing travel time variability pattern 15 differences to facility type may actually be an oversimplification of the phenomenon. 16 17 INTRODUCTION 18 In recent years, there have been an increasing number of travel time variability studies due to an 19 increased market penetration of technologies such as GPS, smart phones, and Bluetooth devices. 20 With the help of these technologies, equipped vehicles in a transportation network may be 21 utilized as probe vehicles, and the travel time characteristics can be calculated even in real time. 22 Researchers employ value of travel time (VOT) and value of travel time variability/reliability 23 (VOR) as a measure for evaluating transportation planning, policy and investment decisions. 24 On one hand, many studies agree that the travel time variability fluctuates mainly with 25 respect to the time period (e.g. peak hours vs. off-peak, weekdays vs. weekends). Other factors 26 such as weather, traffic incidents, roadways geometry, traffic signals, and traffic demand level 27 are also considered to have influence on variability. However, the magnitude and the sign of 28 identified impacts are not consistent among the studies. For instance, the impact of weather has 29 been found to both increase and decrease variability (also with varying levels of impact) based 30 on different studies (1). Similarly, the facility type (highway vs. urban roads, freeway vs. 31 arterial) has also been recognized as an important distinction. Peer et al. (2) studies travel time 32 variability on Dutch highways and question some of their results' divergence from previous 33 urban road studies. They conclude that travel time variability in urban networks is already high 34 due to factors such as traffic lights, and an increase in mean delay may not be fully reflected on 35 the travel time variability. Likewise, (1, 2, 3, 4) identify conflicting variability patterns for urban 36 roads compared to highways. 37 So far, the discrepancy between highways' and urban roads' travel time variability has 38 been identified through several studies and datasets that do not necessarily belong to the same 39 city or even region. Meanwhile, the characteristics and dynamics of each urban area may lead to 40 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {1 2 Following a decade of busway investment, light rail transit (LRT) has re-emerged as an inner-city 3 transit investment for Australia. In the next decade Australian LRT network size will grow by about 25{\%}. 4 Analysis shows that Australian LRT is dominated by the Melbourne streetcar network (one of the largest in 5 the world). Although LRT networks have not expanded much, ridership growth has been substantial 6 (+46{\%} between 2001 and 2012) and well above system-wide (all mode) public transport ridership growth 7 in most cities. In general, service levels on Australian trams are low compared to European/US systems. 8 Also service levels have not kept pace with ridership growth, acting to increase the ridership productivity of 9 most Australian LRT. 10 Melbourne leads Australia in terms of ridership productivity (passengers/vkm) and Melbourne 11 tram route 109 has the highest ridership (935K p.a.) and service effectiveness (11.5 passengers/vkm). 12 Between 2006-2013, Australian LRT ridership growth has been higher than the US; however US service 13 levels have grown substantially more than in Australia during this period. The outcome is that while 14 Australian service effectiveness has grown by 20{\%} it has fallen by 8{\%} in the US. 15 While the contemporary history of Australian LRT planning has focussed on the 'streetcar 16 struggle' i.e. acting to reduce congestion effects on growing road traffic on LRT performance.

abstract = {The estimation of the critical gap has been an issue since the 1970s, when gap acceptance was introduced to evaluate the capacity of unsignalized intersections. The critical gap is the shortest gap that a driver is assumed to accept. A driver's critical gap cannot be measured directly, and a number of techniques have been developed to estimate the mean critical gaps of a sample of drivers. This paper reviews the ability of the maximum likelihood technique and the probability equilibrium method to predict the mean and standard deviation of the critical gap with a simulation of 100 drivers, repeated 100 times for each flow condition. The maximum likelihood method gave consistent and unbiased estimates of the mean critical gap, whereas the probability equilibrium method had a significant bias that was dependent on the flow in the priority stream. Both methods were reasonably consistent, although the maximum likelihood method was slightly better. If drivers were inconsistent, again the maximum likelihood method was superior. A criticism leveled at the maximum likelihood method has been that a distribution of the critical gap has to be assumed. It was shown that this did not significantly affect the method's ability to predict the mean and standard deviation of the critical gaps. Finally, the maximum likelihood method can predict reasonable estimates with observations for 25 to 30 drivers. A spreadsheet procedure for using the maximum likelihood method is provided in this paper. The probability equilibrium method can be improved if the maximum rejected gaps are used.},

abstract = {The role of bicyclists as consumers is explored through an examination of the relationship between travel mode and shopping behavior. As cities develop policies to combat congestion and reduce emissions from the transportation sector, tension often develops when scarce road space must be allocated, particularly in dense urban cores. The challenge is to accommodate all travel modes and ensure that local businesses are not negatively affected by infrastructure changes. Previous studies in the United States and abroad focused primarily on consumable goods, not retail expenditures. These studies demonstrated that bicyclists made more frequent purchases than their car-driving and transit-riding counterparts and tended to shop at small businesses close to home, whereas motorists spent more money on single occasions. The objective of this study was to examine differences in shopping behavior between bicyclists and motorists—two groups that are in perpetual competition for parking space and other infrastructure accommodations—in downtown Davis, California. Two cross-sectional online surveys in 2009 and 2010 that asked questions about recent shopping in downtown Davis provide the data set. Respondents who biked on their most recent trips downtown spent, on average, slightly more on their purchases each trip than their car-driving counterparts. Bicyclists also made more frequent shopping trips and thus spent more money at downtown establishments than customers traveling by car.},

While 4 these behavioural aspects may be present at the same time in a choice context, most research 5 has studied only one effect at a time. The risk in studying these behavioural aspects 6 separately is that their effects can be confounded or overstated. In this paper we focus on two 7 of the most popular behavioural extensions of the classical choice framework: preference 8 heterogeneity related to attitudes and reference-dependent preferences. We investigate how 9 the two phenomena interact in a combined framework. We test our hybrid choice model that 10 allows for reference-dependent preferences on a data set with choices among alternative-fuel 11 vehicles. The models are validated using a large hold-out sample. Our results show that both 12 effects are important to explain heterogeneity in choice behaviour and that they are not 13 confounded in our application. Latent variables and reference-dependent preferences appear 14 to explain different dimensions of choice.},

The case of the 185-km Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project in the Johannesburg-Pretoria urea of South Africa offers an opportunity to empirically examine the equity impacts of large-scale road pricing in middle-income countries. The paper reports on the novel use of GPS data from multiple sources to assess the distribution of benefits and costs of electronic tolling across passenger and freight users. CPS data from commercial truck fleets are combined with multiday GPS trucks from a panel of private vehicle drivers to derive measures of user benefit by class. Compared with an alternative hypothecated fuel tax, electronic tolling is more progressive in regard to income and vehicle class because such tolling transfers costs from private to commercial vehicles, in line with the greater pavement damage caused by trucks. Time-of-day discounts favoring commercial vehicles suggests that the injudicious application of discounts and exemptions can distort rather than enhance equity in road pricing projects.},

abstract = {Real traffic data and simulation analysis reveal that for some urban networks a well-defined Macro- scopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) exists, which provides a unimodal and low-scatter relation- ship between the network vehicle density and outflow. Recent studies demonstrate that link density heterogeneity plays a significant role in the shape and scatter level of MFD. Evidently, a more ho- mogeneous network in terms of link density can result in higher network outflow, which implies a network performance improvement. In this study, we introduce two macroscopic models, region- and subregion-based MFDs, that model the density heterogeneity in urban networks in order to an- ticipate the heterogeneity effect. We study the dynamics of heterogeneity and how they can affect the accuracy and scatter of a multi-region MFD model. We also introduce a boundary/perimeter flow control by integrating the MFD modeling. The perimeter controller operates on the border between two urban regions, and manipulates the percentages of flows that transfer between the two regions such that the network delay is minimized. The optimal perimeter control problem can be solved by a model predictive control approach, where the prediction model is the aggregated region-based MFD and the plant (reality) is formulated by the subregion-based MFDs, which is a more detailed model. The perimeter control alleviates the traffic congestion directly by manipulating the perime- ter transfer flows of regions while indirectly tries to maximize the outflowof each region by making the regions more homogeneous. The results of this research can provide an insight on the dynamics of heterogeneity in urban network traffic control.},

Nevertheless, the static information provi-sion from household/individual travel surveys for mobility prediction fails to capture the effects of the fast-evolving mobility trends, particularly today when individuals tend to relocate and change their mobility behavior more frequently than before. This paper presents techniques that handle au-tomatically real-time data from social sensing mechanisms (i.e., social media and mobile phones) to take advantage of the wide deployment of pervasive computing devices and the information ex-change through them. The techniques are used to circumvent the shortcomings of traditional data sources and derive insights about the activity patterns of individuals for estimating their mobility behavior. In more detail, the automatic techniques comprise different rule-sets that process information about the type of interactions (i.e., chatting via social media), the timing of interactions and the duration and re-currency of interactions to develop the mobility profiles of individuals and forecast their mobility patterns during the week or the weekend. The techniques are validated against a four-month sample using information published on social networks by a set of users from the same city. The output of the techniques can be used for updating regularly the data provided by travel surveys or for developing tailored mobility forecasting models.},

abstract = {47 This study analyzes the impact of the opening of the West Coast Expressway in Korea on the 48 location of new manufacturing establishments. The expressway opened in December 2001 49 and connects the Seoul Metropolitan area with Jeolla province. The major construction goals 50 with the expressway were to stimulate industrial development of nearby regions and improve 51 the traffic flow of existing industrial complexes. The analysis is conducted using panel data 52 for the ten year period of 1997 through 2006 developed from the annual Korea Mining and 53 Manufacturing Survey and other sources. 54 The analysis uses a fine spatial resolution based on three non-overlapping, small spatial 55 administrative units: city wards (Korean: dong), towns (Korean: eup), and rural districts 56 (Korea: myeon). This leads to 2,029 observations (one for each spatial unit) per year, or a 57 total of 20,290 observations in the whole 10 year panel. The analysis is performed with a 58 fixed-effect negative binomial panel regression. 59 The opening of the West Coast Expressway has a significant positive impact on the 60 location decision of new manufacturing establishments. The average wage of employed 61 workers in local manufacturing establishments is an important location determinant for new 62 manufacturing establishment. The number of employed workers in existing manufacturing 63 establishments of the local area is a highly significant positive location determinant for new 64 manufacturing establishments, indicating agglomeration effects. 65 66 67 Keywords: Social Overhead Capital, Transportation infrastructure, Investment, Location, 68 Firm birth 69 1. INTRODUCTION 70 Since the 1960s, Korea has consistently expanded investment in social overhead capital 71 (SOC) such as roads and railways in order to enhance national industrial competitiveness by 72 overcoming the shortage of SOC. Even recently, there have been considerable investments 73 into these areas. For example, 7.8{\%} of the total fiscal budget was invested in 2008 and an 74 estimated 8.7{\%} in 2009, although these figures are considered to be temporary measures to 75 overcome the recent unprecedented economic crisis. In particular, the amount of fiscal 76 investment in roads recorded 7.8 trillion South Korean Won (KRW) in 2008 and is reached 77 9.4 trillion KRW in 2009 (1). Helped by such a large fiscal investment, the total distance of 78 Korea's expressway increased from 1,825 km in 1995 to 3,913 km (2) in 2011. 79 Given the immense expenditure of major transport infrastructure construction, it is 80 important to investigate the impact on the development of both national and regional 81 economies. The importance of transportation cost in the location decision of an establishment 82 has been emphasized for quite a long time since Weber (3) established a model for cost 83 minimization or profit maximization. This is because the analysis of the impact of transport 84 infrastructure on the establishment location pattern is critical to the establishment of effective 85 regional development policies and transportation substructure planning. 86 Most of previous studies on the impact of transport infrastructure were focused on the 87 estimation of aggregate economic effects. Existing studies show contradicting evidence and 88 so far there is no clear answer regarding the correlation between infrastructure level and the 89 economic growth level. For instance, Aschauer (4) and Fernald (5) in their studies conducted 90 at the U.S.A. national level show there is a positive correlation between infrastructure capital, 91 specifically expressways, and productivity. Conrad and Seitz (6) and Boarnet (7) show that 92 there exists a positive correlation between transport infrastructure and output. On the other 93 hand, Holtz-Eakin and Schwartz (8), in a study conducted on the U.S.A. state level, show the 94 rise in the expressway stock did not affect the rise in productivity, and Evans and Karras (9) 95},

abstract = {Fostering of carpools and higher car occupancy levels in general has become a trending transport political topic. A more intelligent use of the private vehicle fleet is regarded as a measure to reduce congestion, fossil energy consumption and negative external impacts, particularly in densely populated areas. Observations in Germany suggest that the provision of sufficiently large and well-equipped park-and-pool lots near motorways access points, which are common " match points " of work commuter routes, is a critical success factor of rideshare-oriented policies in rural areas. Self-organized mobility is in position to complement the public transport supply. This contribution presents a potentially novel approach to generalized demand modeling of such parking lots, specifically in rural areas, and coupled with an existing travel demand model. Following a literature review, an evaluation of a comprehensive household survey, and a synopsis of our own field studies to date, the theoretical part formally describes the multi-phase computation of the utilizations of parking sites by temporary commuter carpools. The distinguishing idea is to jointly model the consideration of carpool parking and passenger collection tours in the choice set formation and qualification of choice options of participants in rideshares. The conceptual approach and its implementation aspects were tested in a case study on investment needs in the German federal state of Thuringia.},

abstract = {Evidence suggests that the relationship between where individuals are employed and reside is complex, more so for individuals with disabilities. The purpose of this study was to compare the employment rates of individuals with disabilities to the population density levels and transportation options of the areas in which they live. The participants represented 3,975 individuals between the ages of 18 and 64 years with and without disabilities residing throughout Utah's 61 small health areas. The results indicate that individuals without disabilities are significantly more employed in areas with good public transportation access. However, it is likely that individuals with disabilities do not benefit from public transportation systems when barriers in the system effectively keep the system below the threshold of comprehensive route coverage and increased stop frequencies necessary for convenient access between places of residence and employment. Individuals with disabilities living in rural areas are likely to experience greater unemployment as a result of fewer job opportunities and less access to resources to mitigate the employment barriers associated with rural areas. While suburban areas are associated with greater job opportunities, they are also associated with fewer transportation options, which mitigates the benefits for individuals with disabilities and other transportation disadvantaged populations. Likewise, while urban areas are associated with greater transportation options, they are also associated with mismatched employment opportunities, which mitigates the benefits for individuals with disabilities and other populations faced with education disparities.},

However, it has some extraordinary characteristics that need to be taken into account: (1) very tight time window; (2) urban road traffic condition during peak hours in the morning and afternoon. After investigation and interview, this paper treats financial convoy problem as TDVRP since the standard deviation of travel time is largely affected by difference of departure time rather than random fluctuation. The objective function is to minimize total cost. Firstly we propose a modified evolutionary strategy, then prove its effectiveness on Solomon's benchmark of static VRPTW, and apply to TDVRP model with certain modifications. We also provide results of situations in which we only consider the time dependent travel time of part roads (for example, arterial roads). In the end, we conduct a case study on V Company's financial convoy service in Nanshan district of Shenzhen, China. The result shows that our migration operator together with evolutionary strategy is effective to handle these problems.},

abstract = {Saturation flow rate is regarded as one of the key parameters in estimating capacity and delay for the evaluation of performance at signalized intersections. In China, the saturation flow rates of shared right-turn lanes typically show large fluctuations because of the different departure characteristics of through and right-turning traffic, as well as complex interactions with pedestrians. This study addresses this complexity by proposing a four-stage saturation departure model based on an empirical analysis of discharge headways in shared lanes. The developed model reflects the stochastic nature of vehicle pedestrian conflict and constructs the logical relationships between shared right-turn saturation flow and its various influencing factors, such as right-turn proportion, pedestrian demand, and the storage capacity of the right-turn radius. A comparison of observed saturation flow rates and estimates from the proposed model and the Highway Capacity Manual demonstrates the good performance of the proposed method. The manual, however, is found to underestimate the effect of pedestrian interference on performed saturation flow rates.},

abstract = {Bicycle sharing systems (BSS) are becoming ever more popular all over the world. One of the remaining problems is that the distribution of rides between stations is not uniformly distributed and certain stations fill up or empty over time. These empty and full stations lead to demand for bikes and return boxes that cannot be fulfilled leading to unsatisfied and possibly even lost customers. To avoid this situation, bikes in the systems are redistributed by the provider. While redistribution of bikes in such systems is well studied, the underlying demand is not yet modeled to serve as an input to improve the redistribution. This gap is closed in this paper. We model demand for bikes and return boxes using data from the BSS Citybike Wien in Vienna, Austria. In particular, the influence of weather and full/empty neighboring stations on demand is studied using different count models. Furthermore, we show that forecasts from our model improve the forecast using historic demands. Lastly, the influence of new stations on the model parameters of a station and resulting structural breaks in the model are discussed.},

The Transportation Education 3 Development Pilot Program (TEDPP) is one such initiative from FHWA seeking to grow 4 new projects that will demonstrate successful outcomes and pathways for replication. 5 Paralleling this, developmental evaluation has emerged as a new paradigm for evaluating 6 evolving programs that are complex and innovative, involving multiple partners and sectors. 7 This paper provides a case study of a developmental evaluation conducted on the TEDPP 8 initiative at the University of Vermont Transportation Research Center (UVM TRC). The 9 TEDPP initiative had two goals: encouraging new entrants into the transportation workforce 10 and retaining and improving the efficacy of current transportation employees. Although 11 internal formative and summative evaluation measures were addressed throughout the 12 TEDPP implementation (2008-2012) a comprehensive developmental evaluation for the 13 entire project was undertaken in 2012-2013. This study describes the developmental 14 evaluation in terms of methodology, evaluation, key findings and suggested 15 recommendations for transportation workforce development projects. The result determined 16 the TEDPP at UVM TRC accomplished many important outcomes. Although these outcomes 17 differed from those conceived at the start of the project, the overall goals were still 18 supported. The nature of this developmental evaluation revealed unexpected benefits and 19 provided a framework for future program expansion in terms of audience and offerings.

A range of methodologies to estimate GHG emissions from 4 various categories of transit agency activities have been integrated into the Calculator which has been 5 funded by the Federal Transit Administration. To estimate the direct emissions, a method with the 6 operating mode bins, based on scaled tractive power, of MOVES has been implemented in the Calculator. 7 Parameters including driving schedule, road grade, and passenger load, were specified for the estimation. 8 load-based life-cycle GHG emissions with five predefined driving cycles in eight combinations of 9 powertrain and fuel types, including conventional diesel bus, CNG bus, parallel and series hybrid buses, 10 battery bus, fuel cell bus, plug-in fuel cell bus and plug-in hybrid bus, were compared and the results 11 show that driving schedules have impacts on the estimated emissions. In comparison to findings from 12 other studies, the selected Knoxville Area Transit (KAT) driving schedules are estimated to have lower 13 CO 2 equivalent emissions with hybrid technology and higher emissions with the conventional diesel, 14 CNG, and fuel cell technologies. Sensitivity analysis of passenger loading parameter with different bus 15 technologies and driving schedules has been demonstrated. Findings and recommendations include (1) 16 transit agencies have better to conduct the evaluation with their own local conditions; (2) battery bus has 17 the lowest emissions in most of the scenarios investigated; (3) the mass of CO 2 equivalent emissions per 18 mile is a good indication for the evaluation; (4) route length does not matter in the analysis; (5) the 19 passenger loading parameter affects the emissions in bus technologies differently. 20},

abstract = {Millions of people in the United States travel by personal automobile to attend professional sports matches played at various stadiums. Engineering and planning publications lack information on parking provisions for major sporting events. The results from this paper on parking outcomes suggest that the current parking provisions are not efficient. This case study examines parking supply, parking utilization, event auto occupancy, and event auto modal share at four major professional sports venues in the Denver, Colorado, region. The percentage of parking supply per parking demand was calculated for several surveyed games in terms of the average attendance, and parking utilization was evaluated during nonevent periods. In general, the surveys of the games indicated that more parking was provided than was necessary, even when attendance was higher than typical. For an event with average attendance, parking utilization was as low as 65{\%}, with 2.2 persons per vehicle. In contrast, when parking occupancy was high, auto occupancy increased to 3.0 persons per vehicle. With such different carpool rates, as well as evidence suggesting that spectators who travel to some facilities are willing to park and walk farther than a half-mile, the results suggest that parking supply and travel behavior are endogenous and should not be treated independently. This study also considered parking occupancy at nonevent times and found whole-scale underutilization, even in downtown locations with great opportunity costs.},

abstract = {6 Motivated by the increasing interest in implementing and exploring a wider range of pricing 7 alternatives, this paper compares different approaches for capturing the heterogeneity of user 8 preferences in forecasting the demand for tolled facilities resulting from user responses to pricing 9 schemes. Existing tools used in practice typically deal with users' value of time (VOT) 10 heterogeneity in one of two principal ways: ignore it, and use a constant value of time, or 11 recognize it by defining discrete user classes each corresponding to a given VOT range, 12 represented by its midpoint or average VOT. The first is fundamentally incorrect, and would 13 lead to biased estimates of network performance; the second is only a coarse approximation. 14 Recently, a third approach, recognizing that VOT is a continuous variable that is distributed 15 probabilistically across the user population, is gaining greater attention. The following questions 16 are examined: (i) what are the impacts of different VOT assumptions on prediction biases in 17 forecasts of toll road usage under different pricing schemes? (ii) do the discrete treatments 18 provide a good approximation of models with continuously distributed VOT, and if so how 19 should VOT be assigned to user classes? (iii) what are the relative computational implications of 20 different VOT assumptions, and what is the role in this regard of efficient implementation 21 techniques for large-scale network applications? The results suggest that recognizing the 22 continuous nature of the VOT distribution is justified on both accuracy and computational 23 grounds, especially in light of recent algorithmic and implementation advances in this regard.},

abstract = {While congestion charging has been heavily studied, relatively little literature focus on incentives and none is comparing different incentivization schemes. This paper investigates the impact of providing incentives on travelers' choices for their commute to work. In contrast to road pricing, an approach of offering incentives to decongest is gaining interest with field test in Europe, India, the US or Singapore. Many forms of incentives exist and the objective of this study is to analyze the potential of a variety of incentive schemes including offering monetary rewards such as cash, credit towards Apple Store, donations, lottery, or in-kind rewards such as HOV pass, guaranteed parking, free coffee or privileged status. This study analyzes the results of a stated-preference survey conducted in the San Francisco Bay Area. In this survey the participants were presented with hypothetical scenarios where they could change their commute for an incentivized alternative. A nested-logit model was estimated from the SP survey and forecasts were made using the 2000 Bay Area Travel Survey. We found that our subjects are willing to change their commute, exhibiting a range of willingness to be paid {\$}6.95-{\$}18.98 per hour of travel time or {\$}10.60-{\$}28.93 per hour of schedule delay. Apple credit and cash proved to be the more efficient monetary rewards while HOV pass was value at {\$}10.85 by the participants. As predicted by behavioral economics, travelers are much more sensitive to charges than to rewards. While application of the model within a traffic simulator is outside of the scope of this study, more limited forecast explore the direct demand response. Illustrative forecasts show that the main contribution to a shift outside the peak hour relies in an earlier departure time and the use of an alternative road or that the use of incentives to shift people follows a law of increasing returns.},

In this study we use the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area to identify its regional competitive clusters and look at the role the current metropolitan transit system plays in providing access to jobs in these sectors. We identify nine clusters for the region and find that the clusters exhibit different location patterns which affects their ability to be served by transit. We argue that understanding the connection between transit systems and regional competitive clusters have critical policy implications for increasing transit rid-ership, reducing negative consequences associated extensive auto use, strengthening existing economic clusters by expanding the labor force access, and improving the accessibility for those that are transit dependent in the region to jobs in these sectors. To ensure that jobs with different skill requirements are encompassed in our analysis, we use an expanded definition of economic clusters where a range of industrial sectors are linked together through trading relationships. Though these clusters at their center are anchored by the sectors considered the drivers of the regional economy, the related sectors we identify as part of these clusters con-stitute a range of employers and labor force needs. The framework allows for focusing on the regions strengths and ensuring that people of varying transportation needs can participate in these growing sectors.},

abstract = {Intersection safety is a national priority, and a driver's stop-or-run decision at signalized intersections is an important factor that can lead to red light running (RLR) and cause intersection-related accidents. This paper investigated this important issue by using high-resolution traffic and signal event data collected from loop detectors. First, a simple method was developed to identify first-to-stop, yellow light running, and RLR cases by using information from stop bar detectors located right behind the stop line and advance detectors located several hundred feet upstream from the stop line. Traffic data collected from advance detectors (including occupancy time and time gap), signal information collected from the signal system (including used yellow time and time left to yellow start), information from three preceding vehicles, and information from vehicles on adjacent lanes were all applied to identify the factors that significantly affect drivers' decision making. A binary logistical regression method was applied to analyze the significance of all these factors. From the investigation results, it was found that occupancy time, time gap, used yellow time, time left to yellow start, time gap between first two preceding vehicles, whether the nearest preceding vehicle runs through the intersection during yellow, and whether there is a vehicle passing through the intersection on the adjacent lane showed a significant effect on drivers' decisions. A prediction model, which predicted whether a driver stopped or ran through the intersection, was also developed with the information collected by advance detectors. The testing experiment showed that the model's accuracy was as high as 87{\%}.},

Different approaches and methods are found in literature for the resolution of the maintenance program problem, varying in the input data, the considered time frame and the process used to select sections, treatments and timings. This paper seeks to assess the existing methods used for the economic evaluation, optimization and prioritization applied to pavement network management and to recommend the most suitable methods for different scenarios. Two main approaches (sequential and holistic) and three classes of methods (priority based on ranking and multicriteria analysis, optimization, and near-optimization methods) have been applied for solving the maintenance program problem. Holistic approach, normally solved using optimization or near-optimization methods, tackles the problem considering the overall network condition. Sequential approach is easier to implement and understand, but it may deal to solutions far from optimal because it does not consider the problem as a whole. Scenarios defining the suitability of these approaches are defined. Finally, a hybrid approach based on iterations is purposed. Iterative approach considers the overall condition of the network and it is supposed to deal to better solutions than sequential approach and to be easier to implement and understand than the holistic approach.},

abstract = {1 Maryland has a long history of being a leader in land use planning and was an early adopter of 2 the concept of smart growth for sustainable development. The Maryland Statewide 3 Transportation Model (MSTM) is the first statewide travel demand model developed for the 4 Washington-Baltimore region. Its primary development has occurred through the course of the 5 last three years (2009-2012). A summary of the model structure is presented in this paper. The 6 rationale for the MSTM's development is discussed in the paper followed by a description of the 7 study area and model structure. The novelty of the MSTM is the use of a three-layer structure. 8 The first layer includes macro scale travel patterns from the entire U.S. and the third layer 9 includes travel patterns at a finer urban level detail. The second layer is statewide in scope and is 10 an amalgamation of the first and third layer. The trip-based model consists of eighteen trip 11 purposes that are cross-classified by five income categories, eleven modes of travel, and four 12 time-of-day periods. The model components have been estimated and calibrated using the results 13 of household travel surveys done across the major metropolitan areas in the state during 2006 14 and 2007. The MSTM has been validated against traffic counts and vehicle miles travel data for 15 the year 2007. Further, the model is used in scenario planning by analyzing the model sensitivity 16 to various policies currently being considered at the statewide level with a 2030 planning 17 horizon. Four scenarios are considered in the sensitivity analysis and each scenario was 18 compared to a reference case. All scenario results provide greater insights to policy decision 19 making. This tool can be used as an instrument for statewide travel demand modeling in 20 Maryland and policy decision making for scenario planning. 21},

abstract = {The vehicle routing problem with simultaneous deliveries and pickups (VRPSDP) has attracted much research interest because of the potential to provide cost savings to transportation and logistics operators. Several extensions of VRPSDP exist. Of these extensions, the simultaneous deliveries and pickups with split loads problem (SDPSLP) has been proposed to eliminate vehicle capacity constraints, as well as allow the deliveries or pickups for a customer to be split into multiple visits. Although delivery and pickup activities are often constrained by time windows, few studies have considered such constraints when SDPSLP has been addressed. To fill the gap, this paper formulates the vehicle routing problem of simultaneous deliveries and pickups with split loads and time windows (VRPSDPSLTW) as a mixed-integer programming problem. A hybrid heuristic algorithm was developed to solve this problem. Solomon data sets with minor modifications were applied to test the effectiveness of the solution algorithm. The results of a computational experiment demonstrated that use of the proposed algorithms to solve VRPSDPSLTW had advantages for minimization of the total travel cost, number of vehicles, and loading rate. The proposed formulation and solution algorithm for VRPSDPSLTW may serve as a general analytical tool for the optimization of vehicle routing in practice.},

Out of ten data sets, the research team could obtain two data sets with congested 4 conditions and eight data sets with free flow conditions to establish the curves for ideal and non-5 ideal work zone conditions. Ideal conditions refer to a work zone with ideal geometric 6 characteristics and no other speed reducing factors such as work activity and police presence. 7 The non-ideal speed-flow curves for speed limit of 45 mph and 55 mph are respectively 8 associated with police presence and speed monitoring display in the work zones. 9 It turned out that the shape of the 45-mph curves is different than that of the 55-mph 10 curves. Especially, regression analysis of the eight free flow data sets (three with speed limit of 11 45 mph and five with speed limit of 55 mph) showed that the slope of the free flow lines is 12 significant for speed limit of 45 mph. On the other hand, a horizontal line can be considered for 13 speed limit of 55 mph since most of the slopes are statistically insignificant. 14 In addition, the paper develops a methodology to estimate capacity and operating speed. 15 The methodology considers the effect of non-ideal conditions as reductions in free flow speed 16 and establishes a curve based on the reduced free flow speed. To establish the curve, one can use 17 the look-up tables provided in this study without going through the curve fitting process. An 18 example problem was solved to show how to use the look-up tables.},

The symmetry of board- ings and alightings is arguably the most important concept in the estimation of travel distances such as average trip lengths and passenger miles from data from entry-only fare collection systems. The paper shows the ways such data can be used to examine the symmetry of boardings and alight- ings through travel patterns in spatial and temporal dimensions. A novel method for aggregating stops, especially for the nearest stops in the oppo- site direction, is used to compare boardings in one direction with alightings in the opposite direction. Spatially, the method allows examination of the characteristics of boardings and alightings in a spatial dimension. Tem- porally, the method examines whether a specific and symmetric passen- ger flow is observed between specific periods (e.g., between morning and afternoon peaks). A case study of the Minneapolis–Saint Paul, Minnesota, region is performed by using automatically collected data from Metro Transit. Automatic fare collection data reveal considerable variation in passenger flow between specific periods. The use of automated passenger- counting data shows this variation to be statistically significant when both temporal and spatial symmetry are examined on an individual day. Transit},

ABSTRACT The national bridge inventory (NBI) database offers a wealth of information but its complexity due to non-linear variable relationships, subjectivity from visual inspections, and missing data limit its full utilization for developing performance prediction models. This paper documents how a careful preparation of the NBI database and use of a basic artificial neural network, a multi-layer perceptron (MLP), can be effective for developing bridge deck degradation models. Development of an MLP model for deck surface condition rating and its assessment with statistical metrics are presented, along with its use to create deterioration curves over the life of a deck. An approach for generalizing the neural network model for a population of bridges is also presented. The MLP model had a predictive capability of 83{\%} when allowed a variance equal to bridge inspectors. The generalized MLP degradation curve is more resilient to errors in the data and provides a more detailed degradation profile than Markov models. Simple MLPs can thus allow for an efficient project and network levels degradation modeling of bridge elements based on empirical historical data.

abstract = {1 The shortest path problem is very important in transportation field, but limited researches have consid-2 ered intersection delays caused by traffic signals and queuing vehicles when seeking shortest path. When 3 considered, the traffic signal was mostly modeled as fixed timing. Delays caused by queuing vehicles 4 were seldom considered. Consequently, shortest path problem considering traffic signals is usually deter-5 ministic. In the case of actuated traffic signal control, however, the intersection delays are stochastic in 6 nature. In addition, the delays experienced by a vehicle at a downstream intersection may depend on 7 the delays it experiences at upstream intersections. In this paper the shortest path problem considering 8 traffic signals is modeled based on the theory of Markov decision problem (MDP). The delays caused 9 by actuated traffic signals as well as by queuing vehicles are included in the formulation. The problem 10 is first formulated as an infinite horizon and countable state space MDP with absorbing state set. This 11 formulation allows the intersection delays to be considered as stochastic and delays experienced by a 12 vehicle at downstream intersection will depend on those at upstream intersections. As the MDP with 13 countable state space cannot be solved directly in practice, a corresponding finite state space MDP is 14 formulated taking advantage of the cyclic property of traffic signals such that the optimal policy can be 15 solved for using value iteration algorithm. The output of the algorithm will be an optimal policy instead 16 of a single optimal path. We show that the required input information for the model can be estimated 17 from high resolution traffic data obtainable from field and numerical tests are carried out at the end.},

abstract = {Abrupt airport outages resulting from terrorism, natural disasters, and incidents can cause reroutes and fuel-critical situations for flights. Although aircraft carry reserve fuel for holding and diversions, poor situational awareness and incomplete information about conditions may cause disordered reroutes. In this paper a deterministic routing model for airport outages that assigns flights an arrival time at a diversion airport is developed. The model includes a parameter for decision time, allowing one to investigate the value of faster response with advanced technologies. The model minimizes flight time after the disaster to ensure that flights avoid fuel emergencies. Model formulations include an unconstrained allocation of flights to diversion airports and a constrained allocation of flights according to routing rules; this formulation is suboptimal but provides a powerful tool because of its potential ease of implementation. The models are used to determine how coordinated traffic flow management actions could have diverted flights and reduced fuel-critical situations immediately following the destructive 2011 To-hoku earthquake. It is found that under reasonable assumptions about diversion airports and capacities, all flights can be accommodated without reaching a fuel-critical state for a decision occurring 20 min after the disaster. A longer diversion decision-making process results in some flights reaching emergency conditions, requiring the use of other, less preferred diversion airports and expedited handling procedures. The more constrained model requires faster response for full accommodation of flights.},

abstract = {This report summarizes the results of year four of a national random-digit-dial public opinion poll asking 1,501 respondents if they would support various tax options for raising federal transportation revenues, with a special focus on understanding support for increasing revenues for public transit. Eleven specific tax options tested were variations on raising the federal gas tax rate, creating a new mileage tax, and creating a new federal sales tax. Other questions probed various perceptions related to public transit, including knowledge and opinions about federal taxes to support transit. In addition, the survey collected data on standard sociodemographic factors, travel behavior (public transit usage, annual miles driven, and vehicle fuel efficiency), and attitudinal data about how respondents view the quality of their local transportation system and their priorities for government spending on transportation in their state. All of this information is used to assess support levels for the tax options among different population subgroups. The survey results show that a majority of Americans would support higher taxes for transportation—under certain conditions. For example, a gas tax increase of 10¢ per gallon to improve road maintenance was supported by 67 percent of respondents, whereas support levels dropped to just 23 percent if the revenues were to be used more generally to maintain and improve the transportation system. For tax options where the revenues were to be spent for undefined transportation purposes, support levels varied considerably by what kind of tax would be imposed, with a sales tax much more popular than either a gas tax increase or a new mileage tax. With respect to public transit, the survey results show that most people want good public transit service in their state. In addition, two-thirds of respondents support spending gas tax revenues on transit. However, questions exploring different methods to raise new revenues found relatively low levels of support for raising gas tax or transit fare rates. Also, not all respondents were well informed about how transit is funded, with only about half knowing that fares do not cover the full cost of transit.},

Estimation of ton-miles in the U.S. transportation system requires freight flow data at disaggregated level (either by link flow, path flows or origin-destination flows between small geographic areas). However, the sheer magnitude of the freight data system as well as industrial confidentiality concerns in Census survey, limit the freight data which is made available to the public. Through the years, the Center for Transportation Analysis (CTA) of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has been working in the development of comprehensive national and regional freight databases and network flow models. One of the main products of this effort is the Freight Analysis Framework (FAF), a public database released by the ORNL. FAF provides to the general public a multidimensional matrix of freight flows (weight and dollar value) on the U.S. transportation system between states, major metropolitan areas, and remainder of states. Recently, the CTA research team has developed a methodology to estimate ton-miles by mode of transportation between the 2007 FAF regions. This paper describes the data disaggregation methodology. The method relies on the estimation of disaggregation factors that are related to measures of production, attractiveness and average shipments distances by mode service. Production and attractiveness of counties are captured by the total employment payroll. Likely mileages for shipments between counties are calculated by using a geographic database, i.e. the CTA multimodal network system. Results of validation experiments demonstrate the validity of the method. Moreover, 2007 FAF ton-miles estimates are consistent with the major freight data programs for rail and water movements.},

The two algorithms are closely related with one major difference: they solve the decomposed elementary node-based subproblem using different methods. Specif-ically, LUCE employs a greedy algorithm that is able to solve the subproblem exactly, whereas OBA uses a one-step quasi-Newton method known as gradient projection to solve the subproblem approximately. There-fore, LUCE seems to hold promises to improve OBA because its subproblem solver is presumably faster and more precise. We implemented these two algorithms in the same programming platform, where the codes of them are shared as many as possible. Numerical experiments reported in this paper, however, indicate that LUCE not only provide no obvious computational advantages over OBA, it often fails to converge beyond certain point. The focus of this paper is to find an answer to this counter-intuitive phenomenon. Our analysis suggests that the greedy method used by LUCE require highly accurate estimation of second-order deriva-tives. When second-order derivatives are subject to large errors, the greedy method can provide consistently sub-optimal descent direction, which seems to be unable to fix.},

abstract = {Recent advances in freight and commercial vehicle modeling have tended to focus on either tour-based truck models or on logistics supply chain models, but relatively little progress has been made on combining the two paradigms into an integrated model framework that models both shipments and truck movements in a disaggregate manner, such that the amount of travel and the travel patterns of local freight truck movement is responsive to changes such as the amount of production and consumption of commodities in a region. This paper describes a tour-based truck model for urban commercial vehicle movement that is part of such a complete framework, developed by the authors and demonstrated in the Chicago metropolitan region. The tour-based truck model's demand for truck trips derives from a microsimulation of individual shipments, the businesses that ship and receive the shipments, and the distribution centers through which the shipments are moved. The model links shipments coming through distribution centers with the vehicles that will deliver them. The model is comprised of a sequence of discrete choice models and clustering and sequencing models to build vehicle tours. The discrete choice models were estimated using the Texas commercial vehicle survey and then applied in Chicago. The paper presents the specifications of the models that comprise the tour-based truck model and discusses their reasonableness with respect to observed truck movements from the Texas commercial vehicle survey.},

Abstract Smart growth planning often focuses on building new housing near rail stations, on the assumption that transit-oriented development can reduce driving and therefore mitigate climate change, pollution and congestion. But research has rarely investigated how transit-oriented development affects auto use—or asked whether new development should be oriented away from autos, rather than toward rail. This study addresses two questions. First, do households choosing new housing near rail stations have different patterns of auto ownership and use? Second, are those differences a result of rail access, or other factors associated with rail access? Previous studies have not used comparable data to compare nearby and farther away housing units; have lacked data on parking supply; have not controlled for characteristics of the housing itself, particularly the age of the housing; and have generally failed to account for how residential choices may affect TOD housing outcomes. I surveyed over 1,100 households within two miles of ten rail stations, and conducted a field count of over 6,200 on-street parking spaces on 818 block faces near the stations. The household survey collected information on housing characteristics, parking, travel, and household demographics as well as stated residential choice criteria to control for heterogeneity in preferences. The survey data were geocoded and joined to on-street parking supply data and other spatial data from secondary sources. I used regression analysis to examine how housing, parking, neighborhood and subregional spatial characteristics are correlated with automobile ownership, commuting, and grocery trips. Auto ownership and use is much lower among households living in new housing near rail stations, but these differences are not explained by rail access. Off-and on-street parking availability, housing type and tenure, local and subregional density, and bus service are much more highly correlated with residential choices and subsequent auto ownership and travel. Rail access is associated with lower auto use when combined with factors like parking supply and housing type, but rail by itself has little explanatory power. The details of TOD matter, and some of the things that " work " about TOD have little or nothing to do with rail access by itself. Planners should broaden efforts to develop dense, mixed-use housing beyond rail station areas. Denser housing development coupled with good management of automobile parking and improved bus service could be more -effective, and less expensive, than a development policy oriented around rail stations.},

abstract = {Transportation agencies are increasingly interested in the use of new strategies for project delivery. Over the last decade, many have focused on adding Design-Build (DB) to their project delivery toolbox. As a result, a large majority of state agencies have already used DB at least on a pilot basis and many have obtained, and widely used, legislative authority to implement it on many projects. Previous research has shown that the goal is not to replace the existing paradigm of Design-Bid-Build project delivery with another paradigm, but, instead of replacing a single-delivery method model of delivery with another that includes several options. As a result, some of the early implementers of DB are now experiencing the implementation of another project delivery model in transportation, Construction Manager General Contractor (CMGC) and/or Construction Management at Risk (CMR). First, this paper reports results from a survey on the status quo in terms of CMGC utilization and then compares it against DB utilization. Then, it utilizes a previously-developed implementation framework to map the current status of different agencies and outlines a roadmap toward implementation. This paper relies on the argument that efforts for adding new project delivery methods (e.g., CMGC, DB, etc.) to an agency's delivery toolbox follow the same process and encounter similar challenges. Therefore, agencies that are interested in exploring and implementing CMGC may gain from lessons learned of other agencies that have already implemented it, and also from their own (or others') lessons learned from implementing DB.

Demand-responsive transportation can be used to improve transit service levels in low-demand areas. Because demand in cities can vary significantly across the region and by time of day, an effective means of determining when demand-responsive services can outperform fixed-route services, and vice versa, is needed. This research builds on existing comparison techniques that focus on gridded street systems and expands the techniques to include all types of street networks, transit schedules, and passenger demand levels. The generic techniques are presented and a case study is given for Atlanta, Georgia, to determine where demand-responsive feeder systems could be implemented to improve customer satisfaction and reduce operating costs.},

The main differences with the HTS conventional approach 50 (to interview people by telephone or mail) are highlighted. All this is accomplished with a case study 51 where is presented the HTS methodology used in Medellin's (Colombia) metropolitan area in 2011-2012 52 using a sample of 20,000 face-to-face interviews. The results of the HTS are presented and analyzed for 53 the case study. It was found a low number of trips per inhabitant (1.7). It is relevant the modal split in a 54 city with a restriction of using the car according the license every peak period in weekdays but with a 55 great number of taxis, near to eight thousand per million of inhabitants. The paper also shows the 56 difficulties that the interviewers had to deal with to do the surveys: planning process, accessibility to 57 households due to different social aspects (e.g. safety, fear, social events, and international sport events), 58 security concern, among others. Finally challenges for future modeling are presented. 59 60 1. INTRODUCTION 61 62 Travel demand is a fundamental factor in the planning of any region or city. The number of trips 63 generated in the different zones of a city is distributed to many destinations following travel patterns. 64 Those patterns are obtained from traffic counts and interviews to travelers. The latter could be done most 65 likely at home, at work, or on the vehicles. This type of survey gets information about the origin, the 66 destination and the socioeconomic aspects of the commuters. Many researchers (Duncan and Duncan, 67 1955; Ortuzar et al., 1993; Chapleau et al., 1996; Chapleau, 1997; Sun et al., 1998; Kato et al., 2011) have 68 studied the Household Travel Survey (HTS) trying to improve the questionnaire, the methodology and of 69 course, the outcomes. For example, Richardson et al. (1995) states that the survey methodology needs to 70 allow integration of related data items that influence behavior, because it is always needed in large 71 metropolitan areas for having robust models for forecasting purposes. 72 73 The place where the surveys are done will affect the accuracy of the answers. If people are busy at work 74 or in a shopping center, they will not focus on the interview, and will try to end it as soon as possible. For 75 that reason, the best option to do the surveys is at home where people are resting and usually have more 76 time. However, doing the surveys to householders at home imply high costs (in US the cost could be 77 between 100 to 150 USD per interview). Use of telephone and mail are the most used type of surveys for 78},

abstract = {This study presents a method to quantify multimodal trip generation for developments in smart-growth areas. The technique combines door counts and intercept surveys to classify trips by mode, and it has several advantages over existing methods that use automated technologies to count automobiles entering and exiting access points to developments. These advantages are particularly important in urban areas with mixed-use developments, mixed-use buildings, and a variety of parking arrangements. First, door counts quantify the total number of trips generated by all modes. Second, door counts quantify all people traveling to and from particular land uses, even if a targeted use is part of a larger, mixed-use building. Third, intercept surveys differentiate between people who are walking for an entire trip and people who are walking as a secondary mode to or from parking or transit. The method was applied at 30 smart-growth study locations in California. Multimodal person trips and vehicle trips were documented at 24 of the study locations during the morning peak hour and at 27 study locations during the afternoon peak hour. Weighted averages from these locations show that suburban-based ITE peak hour vehicle trip estimates were 2.3 times higher than actual vehicle trips in the morning and 2.4 times higher than those in the afternoon. Total person trip generation at the smart-growth study locations was similar to the total person trips estimated from ITE data; however, larger shares of person trips at the smart-growth locations were made by walking, bicycling, or public transit.},

While most available comprehensive road network datasets, either from commercial data vendors or 5 public agencies, are tailored towards motorized traffic, OpenStreetMap as a community based, open access platform for geospatial vector data provides a viable alternative for data retrieval of cycling feature data. The analysis in this study reveals a steady growth of cycling related data in the OpenStreetMap platform over the past few years, rendering the data more complete and appropriate to be used as base map for planning studies on non-motorized transportation. A 10 comparison with the Google Maps Bicycling layer shows that the data quality of OpenStreetMap designated lanes is particularly high. OpenStreetMap bicycle trail data are somewhat more erroneous through missing data and incorrectly classified trails, however still of relatively good quality. For practical purposes it is recommended to check OpenStreetMap trail data against the Google Maps Bicycling layer before an analysis is conducted based on OpenStreetMap trail data.},

The approach offered here is geared towards traffic planners in small 3 towns who have to deal with such scenarios. In such settings, roundabouts are usually among 4 favorite intersection control types. Roundabouts usually operate in low volume traffic areas, 5 while high traffic volumes are expected during evacuation. This paper develops a framework to 6 evaluate the traffic impacts of evacuations in roundabouts within a network. A methodology 7 based on relaxed discrete network design problem is presented along with a decomposition 8 approach to simplify the solution strategy. Two volume adjustment strategies are proposed to 9 maintain the interactions of neighboring intersection while taking advantage of simplicity of 10 traffic analysis at isolated intersections. The case study based on a sub-network of the city of 11 Newark in Delaware is presented. Discussions on applicability and future directions of this 12 research are provided.},

Various combinations of the following design parameters were studied using microscopic traffic simulations:  Speed thresholds -for queue detection and warning message selection,  Aggregation interval -for averaging vehicle speeds at each sensor location  Update interval – for updating messages based on PCMS  Detector spacing – distance between speed sensors deployed upstream of the lane closure  PCMS location – defined by their distance to the lane closure. As expected, the queue warning systems with half-mile detector spacing can more accurately detect the end-of-queues than those with 1-mile detector spacing. It was also found that the queue detection and queue length estimation accuracy of the system was not sensitive to the speed thresholds in the 25-35 mph speed range. Therefore, based on safety considerations, 35 mph is recommended as queue detection threshold. The recommended threshold for " slow traffic " messages in freeway applications is 55 mph. The recommended speed aggregation interval is 5 minutes.},

abstract = {Although walking is the dominant mode of transportation to transit facilities, there are strong variations by socio-demographics, geography, mode of public transit used and other factors. There is particularly a need to understand ways in which car owners who choose to use public transportation can be encouraged to carpool, walk or bicycle in the “first mile” and “last mile” of the transit trip, instead of driving. These considerations have implications for addressing cold start trips resulting from short drives to transit facilities, active transportation strategies that may benefit transit users who currently drive, and in deriving solutions for shared transportation such as bicycle-sharing and car-sharing programs. Using data collected in the Chicago Metropolitan Area, the authors investigate how the mode choice for the access trip to transit stations is related to costs, personal and household variables, trip characteristics, and neighborhood factors including crash frequencies, crime prevalence, neighborhood racial characteristics, population density, roadway density etc. for persons in car owning households. The results suggest that while much of the choice depends on personal and trip related variables, some neighborhood level factors as well as the provision of parking at transit stations have important relationships to mode choice that can influence built environment factors such as density and policy areas such as the provision and operation of transit parking facilities.},

These projects 49 require large financial investments; therefore, careful attention is required since early planning 50 stages. Transportation planners are challenged to estimate future ridership for new or upgraded 51 rail service, since this is one of the most important factors for decision makers. This paper 52 presents a sketch planning model to estimate ridership for a new or upgraded airport rail service. 53 This model is based on the characteristics of existing rail service in the United States, and only 54 requires limited input for estimating the ridership: total rail network length, rail line headway, 55 and transfer time from rail station to the airport terminal. Data for these parameters are readily 56 available from free sources; in addition, this model can be easily replicated for estimating airport 57 rail ground access in the U.S. This sketch planning model is applied to recently implemented or 58 planned rail access to airports in Dallas and Oakland. The proposed model's results are within 59 five and nine percent of the ridership estimated using more sophisticated models; a recently 60 implemented service appears to be within twenty-five percent of the predicted value. 61 62 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Gebhart 1 ABSTRACT 19 East River Plaza is a recently constructed mall in the East Harlem section of Manhattan. The 20 development contains big box stores including Target, Costco, and Best Buy along with a 1,248 21 space parking garage. This paper evaluates the assumptions and methodology of the analysis 22 determining the large parking supply, measures current parking usage, and determines modal 23 splits through an intercept survey. The project's Environmental Impact Statement assumed 67{\%} 24 to 68{\%} of all trips arriving to East River Plaza would be by automobile. Parking accumulation 25 was calculated using parking studies conducted at Home Depots in the Bronx, Queens, and Port 26 Chester, NY and a Costco in Staten Island, all of which are less dense and have higher vehicle 27 trip rates and vehicle ownership rates. These calculations resulted in a peak parking 28 accumulation of 1,190 vehicles for a Saturday afternoon. Actual parking occupancy 29 observations revealed only 371 vehicles (34{\%} occupancy) on a Tuesday afternoon in late 30 November, and 426 vehicles (39{\%} occupancy) on a Saturday afternoon in December. The 31 intercept survey revealed 48{\%} and 37{\%} of respondents arrived by foot and 27{\%} and 33{\%} drove 32 on Tuesday and Saturday, respectively. Thus, the parking supplied has resulted in an 33 underutilized land use and lost opportunity for additional development. Future big box 34 developments in dense urban areas should not use suburban models for auto trip generation and 35 parking accumulation and instead consider the provision of trips being made by walking and 36 public transportation, reducing the need for unnecessary parking.},

abstract = {Planners and policy makers have recognized the effects of the built environment on vehicle ownership and use. Within the voluminous literature, however, few studies have examined how the built environment was associated with household electric bike (e-bike) ownership. This study explored the relationship between the built environment and household e-bike ownership in the Chinese context, on the basis of data collected in the Zhongshan Metropolitan Area. The e-bike choice models suggested that household measures dominated the number of household e-bikes, but the models also detected a relationship between several built environment attributes and household e-bike ownership. All else being equal, denser and higher mixed land use development, more connective transportation links, and accessibility to commerce and jobs were related to lower household e-bike ownership. Households located in urban neighborhoods tended to own fewer e-bikes than those in suburban or rural areas. The availability of competitive transportation modes was strongly related to the likelihood of e-bike ownership. The results suggested that policy makers should consider built environment attributes with respect to policies on e-bike ownership and set different policies in different areas according to the variations in the built environments. The findings also suggested that e-bike ownership policies should be integrated with ownership policies on competitive modes and with policies related to public transportation service improvement.},

In deriving 8 these solutions a distinction between anticipative and retrospective travel times are made. 9 Anticipative travel times are used to estimate upstream counts, and retrospective travel times are 10 used to estimate downstream counts.

[e.g., Global Positioning System (GPS) and smartphones] to reduce survey burdens and accurately collect location information (1–5). This paper investigates the application of smartphone sensing technologies for continuous collection of spatiotemporal activity–travel data. This study is motivated by rapid advancements in smartphone capabilities (e.g., more sensors and processing power). The authors anticipate that such technological advancements would significantly affect survey methods and provide a more respondent-friendly survey design. Smartphone sensors can be categorized into three groups according to their application to travel data collection: • Motion sensors (6): – Accelerometer, which measures the device linear acceleration; – Gyroscope, which measures the angular rate of change (i.e., rotation velocity); and – Magnetometer (i.e., compass), which measures the magnetic field strength; • Location sensors: – GPS, which is commonly used in outdoor settings, and – Network-based location services, which use cellular network and wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) to determine the location (i.e., via triangulation); and • Ambient sensors: – Light sensor, – Microphone, and – Proximity sensor, which detects nearby objects and can indicate when the phone is near the user's ear (e.g., during a call). This research focuses on collecting data from travelers in a respondent-centric approach by considering their interests. Traditional data collection techniques that directly interact with participants are limited by factors such as respondent's memory, cognition, and interest to participate. These factors pose a challenge to the collection of quality data. The challenges accentuate the need for a user-friendly method of data collection that seamlessly integrates into travelers' daily lives. The paper proposes such a methodology for activity–travel data collection. The remainder of this paper is structured into three sections. The first section provides a literature review on current data collec-tion methods, with more emphasis on the applications of emerging technologies (e.g., GPS and smartphones). The second section discusses the main components of the proposed travel data collection framework and explains how they can be employed for practical data collection projects.

abstract = {This study proposes a formulation for the transit network frequency setting problem. The formulation provides an optimal allocation of resources over space and time while recognizing the existence of multiple service patterns along each bus route. Transit agencies must allocate their limited resources optimally to maximize user benefits, operator benefits, or a combination of the two. The coupling of the routes with the service patterns provided along all or portions of the routes is effectively captured, and the user perspective and the operator perspective are merged into one formulation. The service patterns may be scheduled with different subsets of stops for a given route. Users see the resulting combined route headways at the stops. The number of riders varies with the prevailing number of bus trips at a given stop, which is the combination of different pattern dispatch frequencies. Two main formulations are introduced. The first extends work of Furth and Wilson and seeks to maximize the number of riders and the total wait time savings under budget, fleet, policy headway, and bus loading constraints. The second minimizes the net cost under fleet, policy headway, bus loading, minimum ridership, and minimum wait time savings constraints. In both formulations, pattern headways in different time-of-day intervals are the decision variables. This paper provides the mathematical formulation underlying the proposed methodology, describes the solution method and implementation, and demonstrates, by example, important properties of the frequency setting problem in this context, including some that may at first appear counterintuitive.},

In the tour context, there are a number 3 of choice dimensions wherein the choice of the alternatives and the amount to consume is made 4 simultaneously. In particular, the choice of different activity types and the amount of time allocated to 5 various activity types within a tour is of considerable interest. The simulation of these choice processes 6 must be done while also recognizing the dependencies and interactions across choice contexts within 7 the tour. It is desirable to model the choice context of multiple discrete choices (activity types) and the 8 associated continuous variable (time spent on the activity types) under a single unifying framework to 9 accurately capture the interrelationships across the choice dimensions within a tour. Data from the 10 latest wave of the NHTS is used to estimate a joint model of activity type choice and continuous time 11 allocation using the multiple discrete-continuous extreme value model. In addition, history of activity 12 participation is explicitly captured in the model specification as explanatory variables. Results from the 13 empirical exercise provide plausible results and support the case for modeling these choice dimensions 14 simultaneously to accurately capture the inter-relationship between activity type choice and activity 15 time allocation. History of activity participation was found to be significant with notable trade-off and 16 complementarity effects exhibited by individuals for selected non-work activity types. 17 18},

abstract = {Since PHEVs operate in two different energy use modes, establishing how much electric travel is possible with a given CD range is important to properly account for the environmental benefits and petroleum displacement potential of PHEVs. However, given the flexibility of the PHEV drivetrain, a number of factors will shape which vehicles consumers purchase and how the PHEV is used. Current methods for estimating the eVMT potential of a given PHEV focus on assumptions for charging frequency and single day driving diary data. To estimate the potential implications of added workplace, public and DC fast charging infrastructure on the fraction of electric vehicle miles traveled (eVMT) consumer PHEV-conversion usage patterns recorded during a vehicle demonstration project are combined with an energy and infrastructure model. The results show that charging infrastructure can increase the fraction of eVMT driving considerably (up to 15 percentage points) but, the benefit varies considerably by household and vehicle CD range. DC fast charging is shown to provide the most benefit of any away from home charging for PHEVs with 70 or more miles of CD range, but the use of fast charging by PHEV consumers will be sensitive to price and time tradeoff considerations. Further analysis of the UF results shows that household's EV driving experience will vary considerably from the average, which highlights that using a fleet-wide utility factor to plan optimal PHEV ranges will lead to over and under estimates of CD range and battery size requirements for PHEV consumers.},

abstract = {Efficient operation of traffic signals is greatly beneficial to drivers. Because of the intensive labor required, most traffic signals in the United States are retimed once every 3 to 5 years or more, even though signal retiming has a very high benefit-cost ratio. Such a practice may miss opportunities for operational improvements and lead to unnecessary delays. One of the major obstacles to improving the practice is the lack of data collection capability and a convenient performance monitoring tool for signalized arterials. To fill this gap, this paper proposes a performance diagnosis tool for arterial traffic signal systems. The tool aims at identifying necessary parameter changes and assisting agencies in periodically fine-tuning signal timing parameters. A flexible and low-cost data collection unit is developed to equip traffic signal cabinets with event-based data collection capability. Three major parameters of traffic signals (offset, green split, and cycle length) are evaluated in the data center by diagnosis modules that use event-based traffic data. The development of the data collection unit and the diagnosis methodologies are described in detail. The implementation of the tool is illustrated by field data analysis at intersections on Trunk Highway 13 in Burnsville, Minnesota.},

While Smith's 4 model offers a new regime for modeling traffic evolution, it contains an ad-hoc step of flow 5 adjustment, for the purpose of maintaining the flow conservation. The additional adjustment 6 in Smith's approach results in difficulties in analyzing system's properties. This paper proposes 7 a general formulation for a class of flow splitting models, which endogenously preserves the 8 flow conservation.

Gosling, Wei and Freeman 2 ABSTRACT 1 Funding projects to improve the intermodal connectivity between the surface 2 transportation system and airports is often complicated by the need to draw on a 3 range of different funding programs and sources, each with their own project 4 eligibility requirements and regulations. This paper presents seven case studies of 5 the funding sources used for a range of major intermodal airport ground access 6 projects in the United States that were completed in the past twelve years or are 7 currently under construction. The case studies were undertaken as part of a 8 recently completed research study that investigated collaborative funding 9 strategies to facilitate airport ground access. The projects comprise a major 10 intermodal center, two automated people mover links between airports and nearby 11 rail stations, two airport access highway projects, and two extensions of rail 12 transit systems to airports. 13 The funding sources for the seven projects varied widely with the nature 14 and location of the project. All seven projects involved some collaboration 15 between local, state and federal agencies in developing the funding plan for each 16 project, although the number of agencies involved varied, with the larger projects 17 generally having more agencies involved in providing funding. This experience 18 suggests that developing a funding plan for such projects requires the involvement 19 of a broad range of stakeholder agencies in planning and implementing the 20 project.},

These models, however, have additional consistency constraints, when compared with non-hybrid models, such as the need to maintain consistency across their components models. This consistency requirement takes two forms, model-based consistency, i.e. whether the model outputs and measures of effectiveness match under specific conditions; and process-based consistency, i.e. whether the models maintain consistency as demands or roadway conditions change. This paper is intended to provide insight into statistical measures that can be used to evaluate both kinds of consistency, and to demonstrate a process that can be used to increase the consistency of models.},

abstract = {1 Tailpipe emissions significantly contribute to air quality problems at both local and regional 2 scales. The quantity of tailpipe emissions is affected by several factors including vehicle 3 characteristics, driver behavior and prevailing road and traffic conditions. This paper presents a 4 corridor-level methodology to compare tailpipe emissions produced at a site in Raleigh, North 5 Carolina, where a Transportation Improvement Project (TIP) was implemented to convert a 6 traffic signal to a multi-lane roundabout in 2010. An intersection-level analysis is also presented 7 to assess the contribution of the multi-lane roundabout to the emissions impacts of the TIP. It is 8 common in practice to synthesize or forecast traffic activity data and use it to predict the traffic 9 emission impacts and compare changes before and after a TIP. The unique methodology in this 10 paper presents an alternative to forecasting, by utilizing empirical emissions and vehicle activity 11 data collected before and after the TIP. Second-by-second tailpipe emissions concentrations were 12 collected via a Portable Emissions Measurement System (PEMS), which was installed in the test 13 vehicles. Emissions factors were obtained and used with vehicle activity before and after the TIP. 14 It was found that at the corridor-level, turning movements from the main street produced higher 15 total emissions while turning movements from the minor street produced lower total emissions 16 after the TIP. The emissions per unit distance were lower for most movements after the TIP. 17 However, these differences were not statistically significant. At the intersection-level, two 18 movements that were made directly at the study intersection showed that vehicles tested after the 19 TIP at the multi-lane roundabout had lower emissions per unit distance. For the right turn from 20 the minor street to the major street, the decrease in emissions per unit distance of carbon 21 monoxide, hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide was significant. 22 23 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Numerous studies in recent years have sought to quantify and evaluate the effects of traffic control and demands on vehicular emissions, such as CO 2 . In this paper, an analytical model has been developed based on kinematic wave theory in order to compute number of stops and the proportion of time spent idling and cruising based on the arrival flows at an isolated signalized intersection. The acceleration, deceleration, cruising, and idling are quantified and related to vehicular emissions. Since the magnitude, duration, and pattern of acceleration and deceleration play an important role in determining traffic emissions, real vehicle trajectories from NGSIM have been extracted in order to calculate typical characteristics of the acceleration and deceleration behavior of real drivers. Finally, EPA's microscopic emission model, MOVES, has been implemented to estimate emission factors for each of the driving modes as measured from the NGSIM trajectories. By incorporating the resulting emission factors into the analytical traffic model, total traffic emissions are easily estimated for a wide range of arriving traffic flows without the need for extensive microsimulations or additional data collection. The method is developed and illustrated with an analysis of CO 2 equivalent, but the approach can be applied generally to any pollutant of interest. The results of this research show that as arrival flow increases, the contribution of emissions from vehicle stops dominates the total CO 2 emissions on the road segment. The analytic expressions also facilitate other systematic analyses, such as evaluating the effect of residual queues on vehicular emissions along an intersection approach.

abstract = {1 With skip-stop rail transit operation, transit agencies can reduce their operating costs and fleet 2 size, and passengers can experience reduced in-transit travel times without extra track and 3 technological improvement. However, since skip-stop operation does not serve all the stations, 4 passengers at exclusive stopping stations can possibly experience increased access time, waiting 5 time, total travel time, and transfer. Only when the stopping stations are carefully coordinated 6 can skip-stop service benefit passengers and transit agencies. 7 This research developed a mathematical model using a Genetic Algorithm that 8 coordinated the stopping stations for skip-stop rail operation. Using the flexibility of the Genetic 9 Algorithm, this model included many realistic conditions, such as different access modes, 10 different stopping scenarios, different collision constraints, and different objective functions. 11 For this research, the Seoul Metro system's line No. 4 was used as an example. With 12 skip-stop operation, total travel time became about 17-20 percent shorter than with original all-13 stop operation, depending on the stopping constraints. In-vehicle travel time became about 20-26 14 percent shorter due to skipping stations, although waiting, transfer, and additional access times 15 increased by 24-38 percent. 16 Each train skipped five to nine stations, which reduced five to nine minutes (up to 8 17 percent) of the operating time. As mentioned, this model was built to minimize the total travel 18 time. If the model's objective was minimizing operating time or minimizing total cost, the model 19 could reduce operating time more.},

The results 63 further showed that the use of free flow speed (predicted by the HCM 2010 methodology) in 64 determining arterial level of service produced lower levels of service for 10 of the 20 segments 65 analyzed. In addition, calibration of the HCM 2010 model coefficients showed that speed 66 prediction by this model can be improved if the speed limit coefficient is doubled and the 67 influence of cross section and access density factors substantially decreased.},

abstract = {The way in which a person organizes his or her day, both temporally and spatially, is a highly important matter to travel behavior and travel demand modeling. Many times, the focus of these models is to accurately predict the ''where'' and ''when'', without paying adequate attention to the ''why.'' The participation in activities, and therefore the selection of a place for these activities has been recently discussed within the framework of subjective well being. The motivation of happiness can be used to under-stand how and why people make the choices that they do. Many different criteria are used by individuals in the selection of destinations. These criteria range from attributes such as distance and cost, to attributes such as comfort, security and social aspects in determining the most rewarding destinations. Aspects contributing to a rewarding experience can also be viewed as those decision criteria that lead to the highest satisfaction. In this paper, several attributes of places and decision-making are explored for their potential to explain destination choices. First, a broader analysis of destination choice and criteria used helps us develop a geographic representation of attitudes and views regarding the area of Santa Barbara, California. Following this general evaluation of space, individual activity types are statistically analyzed in the importance different attributes play in the selection of a destination that leads to higher satisfaction.},

abstract = {Hinterland haulage among major deep-sea ports and the cargos' inland origins/destinations has become an important component in modern logistic systems. Intermodal freight transport integrates the use of different modalities (e.g., trucks, trains, barges.) during the freight delivery process to improve the reliability and efficiency of hinterland haulage. In this paper, the authors first introduce intermodal freight transport and present existing intermodal container (freight) transport planning approaches. Next, a dynamic intermodal transport network (ITN) model developed by the authors in an earlier work is briefly recapitulated. To deal with the dynamic transport demand and the dynamic traffic conditions in the ITN, they propose a so-called receding horizon approach to address the intermodal container flow assignment problem between deep-sea terminals and inland terminals in hinterland cargo transport. The proposed approach considers the movement of containers as a flow and makes container flow assignment decisions in a receding horizon fashion during the container transport process. At each time step of the process, the future behavior of the ITN is predicted using a dynamic ITN model with load-dependent freeway transport times fed with information on the current and estimated transport demands and traffic conditions. To determine container assignments using this model, a nonlinear optimization problem is solved at each time step. Simulation studies for intermodal container flow assignments are conducted using both an all-or-nothing approach and the proposed receding horizon approach.},

abstract = {On April 13th, 2012, Michigan instituted reforms to its longstanding universal helmet law, becoming the 28th state with a partial helmet law requiring use by only a subset of the riding population. Given continuing increases in motorcycle fatalities, helmet use remains a divisive policy issue facing state governments. The extant research literature includes several examples of before-and-after studies that have evaluated the effects of changes in motorcycle helmet laws on metrics such as helmet use and statewide motorcycle fatalities. However, there is a gap in terms of a comprehensive assessment of the effects of helmet use laws on the full range of crash injury outcomes. This study adds important evidence to inform the continuing debate as to the efficacy of universal helmet laws. A detailed, disaggregate-level study was conducted to assess the degree of injury severity sustained by crash-involved motorcyclists before and after Michigan's transition from a universal to a partial helmet law. While controlling for a variety of rider, roadway, traffic, and weather characteristics, the results show helmets to reduce the probability of fatalities by more than 50 percent. Beyond helmet use, injuries also tended to be less severe in crashes that involved deer or occurred at lower speeds or under inclement weather conditions. Conversely, injuries were more severe in high-speed collisions or when drugs and alcohol were involved in the crash. Female riders, as well as younger (ages 21 to 30) and older (ages 51 to 70) riders tended to be more susceptible to severe injury.},

Khadem Sameni and Landex 1 ABSTRACT 2 3 At the strategic level, railways currently use different indices to estimate how 'value' is 4 generated by using railway capacity. However, railway capacity is a multidisciplinary area, and 5 attempts to develop various indices cannot provide a holistic measure of operational efficiency. 6 European railways are facing a capacity challenge which is caused by passenger and freight 7 demand exceeding the track capacity supply. In the absence of a comprehensive railway capacity 8 manual, methodologies are needed to assess how well railways use their track capacity. This 9 paper presents a novel and unprecedented approach for this aim. Relative operational efficiency 10 of 24 European railways in capacity utilization is studied for the first time by data envelopment 11 analysis (DEA). It deviates from previous applications of DEA in the railway industry that are 12 conducted to analyze cost efficiency of railways. Six DEA models quantify various aspects of 13 micro, macro and quality of railway capacity utilization in these countries. New inputs like gross 14 domestic product, population and area of the country help to provide a better picture of the status 15 of railways. Passenger satisfaction data about different aspects of railway services in European 16 countries has recently been quantified by European commission and are used for the first time in 17 the literature. Invaluable insights can be inferred from the results which can provide a ground 18 basis for railway practitioners and policy makers. 19 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

In this paper, a method for creating city-specific, bicycle SPFs is presented and applied to Boulder, Colorado, the first time a bicycle SPF has been created for a U.S. city. Such functions provide a basis for both future investigations into safety treatment efficacy and for prioritizing intersections to better allocate scarce funds for bicycle safety improvements. The SPFs demonstrate that intersections with more cyclists have fewer collisions per cyclist, illustrating that cyclists are safer in numbers.},

abstract = {Word Count: 5,600 +1,500 (3 figures+3 tables) = 7,100 TRB 2013 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. 2 ABSTRACT Methods for the road network design problem are, typically, based on the optimization of the network efficiency measures (e.g. network-wide travel time) under a predefined budget. In these approaches, equity issues are not taken into account and, consequently, most of the road improvements are planned next to the large cities. Thus, disparities between large and small cities increase, which does not conform to the sustainable development objectives. In this paper, to overcome concerns associated with the traditional methods, equity is incorporated into the interurban road network design problem. To this end, accessibility concepts are employed in this study. However, unlike the previous studies, instead of maximizing the total accessibility, a new definition is proposed for inaccessibility, and total inaccessibility is minimized throughout the network. Using the new definition is not only more compatible with the equity issues, but also helps to eliminate the nonlinearity of the problem. Average travel time to the neighboring opportunities is utilized to propose the definition for inaccessibility, which more effectively captures the reality. With the aim of this definition, equity is incorporated into the road network design problem implicitly. This is another improvement over the previous methods, where a new term in the objective function or a new constraint is added to include the equity. The proposed model is formulated as a mixed integer programming (MIP) problem, where the objective is to minimize the aggregate inaccessibility over all the population centers in the network. To illustrate the application of the model, a medium-sized network is used as the numerical example and the respective exact solution is found using a commercial solver (CPLEX).},

The high penetration rate of smartphones incorporated with the 7 high location accuracy of GPS receivers will provide better estimation of locations and 8 traffic conditions and states. This study presents a field experiment conducted along 9 Whitemud Drive (a section of a connected vehicle test bed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) 10 using a GPS-enabled smartphone, cellular positioning technique, professional GPS 11 handset and combination of smartphones and Geo-fences. The relative positioning errors 12 between the devices were estimated through experimental design, and evaluated in three 13 scenarios. The results suggest that GPS-enabled smartphones are capable of correctly 14 positioning nearly 100{\%} of the roadway segments to Google Earth, while achieving 15 accuracy of within or less than 5 meters for 95{\%} of the data. Using a cellular positioning 16 technique, cell-IDs were correctly identified in repeatable trials with accuracy levels 17 much lower than the smartphone-GPS positioning. Using a combination of smartphone 18 positioning and Geo-fences is promising in finding accurate positions and timestamps. In 19 all scenarios, the use of four data sources for obtaining locations and traffic data is 20 feasible; and particularly, using GPS-enabled smartphones and/or its combination with 21 Geo-fences can provide better location accuracy. 22 23},

Less work has been done on understanding the relationship between access to transportation, well-being and type of disability. The objective of this paper is to provide a better understanding of this relationship. This is achieved through a statistical analysis of Statistics Canada?셲 2006 Participation and Activity Limitation Survey (PALS). The statistical analysis consists of descriptive methods and a factor and cluster statistical analysis. Results of the statistical analysis indicate that people with mental/cognitive disabilities are younger and have less income than people with sensory and physical disabilities. The statistical analysis also found that people with disabilities who have access to public transit have a higher sense of well-being. People who do not have access to public transit have a lower sense of well-being, and more so if they cannot afford personal transportation modes such as the car. This relationship between access to public transportation and well-being is more pronounced for people with mental/cognitive disabilities. The results of this research indicate that people with disabilities will have a greater quality of life if they live in areas that provide multiple transportation options. Built environments that facilitate walking and with enough density to support reliable and frequent transit options will ensure the greatest participation in society for people with disabilities. This is particularly true for people with mental/cognitive disabilities, who face an added barrier of having lower incomes and not being eligible for paratransit.},

abstract = {Transit signal priority (TSP) strategies are widely used to reduce bus travel delay and to increase bus service reliability. State-of-the-art strategies enable dynamic (and optimal), rather than predetermined, TSP plans to reflect real-time traffic conditions. These dynamic plans are called adaptive TSP. Existing adaptive TSP strategies normally use a performance Index (PI), which is a weighted summation of all types of delays, to evaluate each candidate TSP plan and the weights to reflect the corresponding priority. The performance of an adaptive TSP depends on three factors: delay estimation, weights determination, and optimization formulation. In this context, there are three key academic contributions: (a) an enhanced bus delay estimation model based 011 advance detection, (b) a mechanism to adjust the PI weights dynamically to reflect the changing necessity of TSP under different conditions, and (c) TSP optimization formulated into a quadratic programming problem with an enhanced delay-based PI to obtain global optimization with the use of MATLAB solvers. In addition, an adaptive TSP simulation platform using a full- scale signal simulator, ASC/3, in VISSIM was developed. The optimal TSP plans were granted or were rejected on the basis of TSP events, such as check-in, check-out, and multiple TSP requests. Through a case study in VISSIM, this research found that, compared with conventional active TSP strategies, the new adaptive TSP strategy could further reduce bus travel time while maintaining a better balance of service 011 non-TSP approaches along a 7.4-km has corridor in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.},

abstract = {1 The objective of this study is to investigate the properties of the flexibility model in a 2 network of freeways which conveys high volumes of traffic. For that a Dynamic 3 System Flexibility model was defined and its three major components are evaluated 4 and discussed. The Dynamic System Flexibility measures and estimates the options of 5 drivers traveling between origin–destination pairs (O-Ds) in a freeway network. The 6 three models' components depend on the number of possible and feasible routes 7 between a given O-D pairs; on the common lengths among the possible routes and, on 8 the amount of variability between each route's length and the length of the shortest 9 route. The lengths of the link in the model are perceived lengths and depend on the 10 occurrence of congestion in them. 11 It was found that the flexibility measure provides a good estimate of the 12 number of options available to drivers in a given network. Moreover, this measure is 13 sensitive to the amount of congestion in the freeway system, and therefore, the model 14 that is proposed is flow-dependent. It was also found that while the common lengths 15 between the routes increase, the flexibility decreases. A pseudo paradox, similar to 16 Braess' paradox, is shown to exist under certain network conditions.},

abstract = {Variable Speed Limits (VSL) aim to improve freeway mobility and safety by controlling collective behaviours of drivers who are coming from upstream and ramps. Thus, VSL benefits should be positively correlated with VSL compliance level (CL). Surprisingly, a number of heuristic VSL control strategies have shown that VSL with increased CLs can, in fact, increase travel time. However, it is yet to be analyzed whether or not that outcome is due to the control strategy design or the CL. Some recent studies have shown that, regardless of CL, a proactive optimal VSL control provides mobility benefits; however, no evidence was found to indicate which CL is most achievable in practice, nor was a description found for the distribution of speed of a given VSL. The objective of this paper is to quantify the relative contribution that CLs with a proactive optimal VSL control have on improving mobility and safety. In this study, several CL-to-VSL strategies were modeled after real-world driver behaviour. To quantify the impact of CLs only, speed distributions were altered with the static speed limit. Then, the benefits were quantified by implementing a proactive optimal VSL control strategy with the CLs. The simulation evaluation showed that both VSL mobility and safety benefits are positively correlated with increasing CLs. Specifically, the travel time, throughput, and collision probability are improved in the range of 5- 15{\%}, 6-8{\%}, and 50-60{\%}, respectively. The study findings will help guide transportation agencies in deploying VSL control considering CL, so as to achieve maximum mobility and safety benefits.},

abstract = {Proactive optimal variable speed limit (VSL) control is a promising solution to improve both mainline travel time and link throughput. Despite this well-recognized fact, most previous studies found that the 3 VSL control improves only the travel time. This finding hinders the overall mobility benefits and credibility of the computationally intensive proactive optimal VSL control compared to other field-implemented VSL control strategies that do not involve real-time traffic state prediction and optimization. 6 This study proves that to achieve maximum mobility benefits from the proactive optimal VSL control, the selection of appropriate objective functions and the maintenance of a prudent relationship between the partial objectives is required. However, considering mobility parameters, the VSL performance could still 9 be unsatisfactory due to inappropriate values of the control parameters: prediction horizon and control horizon. To this end, this study presents the VSL control mobility benefits considering typical values of the control parameters and objective functions. A tuning rule of weight parameters in the combined 12 objectives is presented, through which transportation practitioners can perceive how the VSL control will impact traffic operation in the real world. Then, the authors investigate relative improvements in mobility parameters and compare those improvements to the uncontrolled case as a function of the prediction 15 horizon for several values of the control horizon. This study evaluates the efficiency of the VSL control for a range of mainline demand levels. These analyses provide a guideline for choosing optimal values of control parameters and objective functions for future field deployments of proactive optimal VSL control. 18 Author keywords: Variable speed limit; macroscopic simulation; model predictive control; active traffic management; multi-objective optimization.},

However, adding new roads 3 or new lanes to existing highways can be an expensive undertaking, especially in dense urban areas where 4 congestion is more severe. Communities may find it is more cost-effective to manage demand so it is 5 more evenly distributed across existing capacity. One way to do this is to provide travelers with 6 comprehensive real-time information so that they can make more personally efficient transportation 7 decisions that also help distribute travel demand across the total capacity in a multi-modal travel corridor. 8 The Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) Initiative seeks to test the effectiveness of this kind of 9 solution. ICM researchers recruited a panel of travelers at two Pioneer sites and collected baseline data 10 on panel members' travel and information use habits. This baseline survey was followed by three months 11 of pulse surveys which measured panel members' use of and satisfaction with real-time travel information 12 during specific traffic incidents. A second set of pulse surveys and a final survey will measure how panel 13 members' behaviors have changed after the implementation of ICM strategies.

Travelers are 3 endogenously divided into two major segments including opportunist travelers and routine 4 travelers by utilizing a nested logit structure. Opportunist travelers perform their LD trips 5 erratically, disregarding the duration that has passed since their last LD trip. They are waiting for 6 an opportunity such as Friends' wedding, long weekend, or an anniversary to plan their next LD 7 trip. Routine LD travelers are people who travel on almost fixed intervals. This regularity in their 8 LD trips can have two main reasons including purpose of their trip (such as business, visiting 9 doctor and visiting parents) and their inflexible time schedule. Routine travelers are usually time-10 pressed which means that performing their next LD trip depends on the duration passed since 11 their last LD trip. For each category of travelers, a suitable mixed proportional hazard (PH) 12 model is developed which can capture the effects of heterogeneity. Baseline hazard function of 13 opportunist travelers is assumed to be constant and independent of time. On the other hand, for 14 routine travelers the baseline hazard is assumed to be time dependent with two alternative hazard 15 model including Weibull PH model and Non-parametric baseline PH model. The models are 16 estimated over the first wave of a long-distance travel survey in Illinois in which respondents 17 were asked to report details of their last ten LD trips in 2012.},

We analyze toll price elasticity of traffic demand, which is directly measured using these nationwide demonstration projects and can be regarded as the main indicator for evaluating policies. Because elasticities were measured across various demonstration projects and different sections of the roads, exploring the determinants of toll price elasticity is possible. We compared cross-sectional elasticities for different projects, and more comprehensively, performed a multiple regression analysis of toll price elasticity at the interchange (IC) pair level. We found that vehicle type difference, magnitude of toll price reductions, difference in time frame, and geographical conditions of toll roads (e.g., the distance from an ordinary road to the nearest IC) would significantly affect toll price elasticity of traffic demand.},

Fwa 5 6 7 ABSTRACT 8 9 This paper presents a research study to handle the problem of missing data in airport 10 pavement management systems. This study is a continuation of an earlier study addressing 11 the same concern. In the earlier study, a Stochastic Multiple Imputation (SMI) approach was 12 adopted to overcome major limitations associated with conventional data imputation 13 methods. The SMI approach considers the variation of multiple plausible imputations and 14 obtains an unbiased estimate in replacing a missing data value. This approach was found to 15 out-perform the three most commonly used imputation methods for missing data handling in 16 pavement management: linear interpolation method, substitution by mean method, and 17 regression method. However, the SMI approach estimates missing data values purely based 18 on statistical techniques, without making use of any unique characteristics of pavement 19 performance data. The present study explores the possibility to further improve the data 20 imputation process by exploiting parallel pavement performance related data available from 21 pavement condition and performance surveys of airfield pavements. An augmented 22 stochastic Multiple Imputation (ASMI) approach is proposed to incorporate auxiliary 23 parameters to aid in reducing uncertainty and improving prediction performance of runway 24 pavement condition data. Using pavement friction data as illustration, the related parameter 25 data included are aircraft landing volume, rainfall, and temperature. This study shows that 26 the proposed ASMI approach provides an analytically meaningful method from pavement 27 engineering point of view that is able to further improve the quality and reliability of 28 imputing missing data for airport pavement management. 29 30 31 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Both the state-of-the-art and the state-of-the-practice in travel 4 demand modeling have advanced considerably over the many decades since the original four-step model 5 structure was conceived. However, the models are not now, and never will be, perfect representations of 6 the systems they represent and so there are inevitably uncertainties around the forecasts that these models 7 generate. There are many applications in which the travel demand forecasts are important, for example, in 8 determining whether a given alternative is financially or technically feasible or meets some benefit 9 threshold. In these applications, uncertainties in the model forecasts may translate directly into risks of 10 not accomplishing the objectives related to the decision to implement or not implement the alternative. 11 For projects that involve outside financing, this threshold varies greatly between equity and lender 12 participants because of their differing risk-reward profiles. 13 Several previous papers and reports have described the uncertainties associated travel demand 14 forecasting and recommended ways of improving the state-of-the-practice. Among those 15 recommendations is the application of formal quantitative risk analysis methods. This paper summarizes 16 the existing literature and describes the application of one relatively straightforward but robust approach 17 for conducting quantitative risk analysis with travel demand forecasting models. 18 The formal risk analysis approach described here can assist by providing a more complete evaluation 19 of a project's likelihood of achieving specified objectives. In addition, it can have a broader application 20 in the development of traffic and revenue forecasts other than a " most likely " or 50{\%} probability of 21 attainment (" P50 ") scenario. When another probability level or target is requested (e.g., 75{\%} by a debt 22 provider or rating agency), traffic and revenue analysts can use expected values for many required inputs 23 and prepare a P50 forecast. They can then apply the procedures outlined here to determine the 24 probabilities of attaining other levels of demand or revenue.},

The three travel mode combinations were: (a) passenger vehicle only, (b) passenger vehicle and public bus, and (c) car-sharing and public bus. Six highway vehicles and modes are analyzed: an internal combustion engine (ICEV), a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), a car-sharing program with ICEV, a car-sharing program with HEV, a diesel bus, and a hybrid diesel electric bus. Car-sharing is a service that provides to its members low cost mobility; it enables a more efficient use of vehicles and it is dominant when a private vehicle is required and other modes of transport are not sufficient.},

Recent researches on elderly behavior suggest that more than thirty percent of seniors' out-of-home activities are related to shopping activities. This paper compares the inter-shopping duration of senior citizens aged 65 and older and their younger cohort. In this study, a latent segmentation AFT-based duration model is developed to model inter-shopping duration. Previous attempts on modelling the inter-shopping duration were based on proportional hazard (PH) approach. However, for the cases that proportionality assumption is not valid, the applicability of the PH model would become questionable. The proposed AFT-based model is developed for both seniors and non-seniors. The results indicated that the elderly people are more likely to be erratic shoppers. In the non-elderly group, 62{\%} of shoppers were regular and 38{\%} of them were erratic. The covariate effects results for non-senior shoppers revealed that higher income and bigger household size would result in shorter regular inert-shopping durations and longer random shopping durations. Non-senior shoppers with higher education have longer regular inter-shopping durations, and do more random shopping activities. Furthermore, non-senior shoppers who live alone do more random shopping activities, perhaps due to the reason that shopping activity is more like a leisure activity for them. For the elderly cohort, engaging in shopping activities with companions decreases their inter-shopping duration, perhaps because seniors are more willing to socialize with others. As expected, higher income or presence of children in the household would increase the frequency of shopping activities.},

abstract = {Policymakers around the globe have opted for high levels of regulation of the market for vehicle safety and declared many vehicle safety systems as mandatory for new cars. In this paper we argue that the delivered justifications for these policies are at least questionable. We add a completely new argument to the discussion and show in a simple theoretical model that vehicle safety systems might cause positive externalities. Based on a large dataset of traffic accidents in Germany we show that the these externalities in fact occur. Based on our estimation results we show that for anti-lock-brakes (ABS) and electronic stability programmes (ESP) the average expected externality exceeds the price of these systems. Thus, the obligation to equip any new car with both ABS and ESP is adequate from an allocative point of view although the official justification for the introduction of these regulations are flawed. {\textcopyright} 2014 Society for Policy Modeling.},

abstract = {The goal of this research was to determine the effects of geometric characteristics on double left-turn lane (DLTL) operations, as measured with saturation flow rate (SFR) in units of passenger car per hour green per lane (pcphgpl). Data from 26 sites located in three states (Arizona, California, and Texas) were used in the analyses. The average double left-turn lane SFR was 1775 pcphgpl. The inside/outside lane variable was found to be not significant which means that the inside and outside lane SFRs are similar. For each additional U-turning vehicle within the left-turn queue, SFR would decrease by 56 pcphgpl after accounting for the effects of other variables in the model. The model results indicate that the addition of a new lane on the receiving leg from a channelized right turn results in an increase in SFR of about 50 pcphgpl. Width of the left-turn lanes did not significantly affect the SFR. The method to determine SFR requires the elimination of a queue if a heavy vehicle is present. Therefore, while the operations of queues with only passenger cars are similar for the various left-turn lane widths studied (9.5 to 13 ft); the operations of queues that include heavy vehicles (trucks or buses) may have different results. The width of the receiving leg represents the visual target for the left-turning drivers. When the receiving leg width is between 24 and 36 ft, the average SFR was 1725 pcphgpl while a receiving leg width of 40 to 54 ft was associated with an average SFR of 1833 pcphgpl. A potential change to practice based upon this research is to modify guidance documents to reflect the finding that the capacity of DLTLs is approximately 196 rather than 180 percent of a single median lane. BACKGROUND The AASHTO Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (commonly known as the Green Book) (1) has a section that is new to the 2011 edition on Double or Triple Left-Turn Lanes, which contains several general statements regarding multiple left-turn lanes. Some of these statements could be expanded with information available in other documents, such as the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) (2), a recent Texas study on triple left-turn lanes (3), the FHWA Signalized Intersection: Informational Guide (4), and a Florida study (5). However, there are some unanswered questions and the focus of this paper is to quantify the effects of geometric characteristics on double left-turn lanes (DLTLs) operations, measured using saturation flow rate (SFR) expressed in passenger car per hour green per lane (pcphgpl). LITERATURE Several projects have documented research with turn lanes and this section will summarize key findings relevant to this research. Wortman (6) conducted a review on double (then known as dual) left-turn lanes for the Arizona Department of Transportation in the 1980s. In it, he cited work from Neuman (7) that DLTLs should be considered at any signalized intersection with high left-turn design hour demand volumes, including a general rule that it is appropriate to consider DLTLs when the demand volume is 300 passenger cars per hour or more. Other guidelines from Neuman (7) include the following:  The throat width for the turning traffic is the most important design element. Drivers are most comfortable with extra space between the turning queues of traffic. A 36-ft throat width is desirable for the receiving leg of double left-turn lanes because of vehicle},

At night, the detection distance to an object was shorter behind an assembly with R-B when compared with an assembly with two 12-in. circular beacons below the sign.

However, only in the last 30 years has commuter rail gained recognition 4 as a mode of public transportation separate and distinct from other railroad services. 5 The development of commuter rail as a mode of public transportation, supported 6 and operated by public entities, was a marked shift for an industry comprised of self-7 reliant firms. Railroads and public entities developed new techniques to manage finances, 8 optimize schedules, and market their services. New agreements assigned responsibility 9 for costs and liabilities to public entities and set limits on infrastructure usage. The 10 increased responsibility of public entities for commuter rail services has required a public 11 policy permitting subsidy of operations, infrastructure investments, and new governance 12 structures. 13 This paper traces the evolution of commuter rail service in the San Francisco 14 Peninsula and describes the operating practices, agreements, and institutional structures 15 that facilitated its rise as a mode of public transportation. 16 Understanding how and why choices were made at the beginning is crucial for 17 appreciating how this commuter rail service has evolved into its current state and how 18 this particular operation can be enhanced with electrification and eventually blended 19 operations with the future intercity high-speed rail service in California.},

While earlier versions of this survey (which has been undertaken annually since 2007) have exclusively addressed back-to-base carsharing by private users, the growth of these alternative carsharing concepts led to the decision to study them as part of the 2012/13 edition. The survey of peer-to-peer users focused on the 'renter' sub-segment of peer-to-peer carsharing (as opposed to the complementary 'car-owner' sub-segment). Both corporate carsharing members and corporate travel administrators were surveyed (with different questionnaire instruments); this paper reports results from the corporate-carsharing-member component of the survey. Key findings reported here are: 1) the net effect of peer-to-peer carsharing was to increase driving mileage amongst car-renters, 2) Corporate carsharing members reduced their use of personal cars for both business and commuting travel, and 3) More corporate carsharing members say that after joining the service they make more business journeys than say that they make fewer business journeys.},

abstract = {Understanding how levels of satisfaction differ across transportation modes can be helpful to encourage the use of active as well as public modes of transportation over the use of the automobile. This study uses a large-scale travel survey to compare commuter satisfaction across six modes of transportation (walking, bicycle, automobile, bus, metro, commuter train) and investigates how the determinants of commuter satisfaction differ across modes. The framework guiding this research assumes that external and internal factors influence satisfaction: personal, social, and attitudinal variables must be considered in addition to objective trip characteristics. Using ordinary least square regression technique, we develop six mode-specific models of trip satisfaction that include the same independent variables (trip and travel characteristics, personal characteristics, and travel and mode preferences). We find that pedestrians, train commuters and cyclists are significantly more satisfied than drivers, metro and bus users. We also establish that determinants of satisfaction vary considerably by mode, with modes that are more affected by external factors generally displaying lower levels of satisfaction. Mode preference (need/desire to use other modes) affects satisfaction, particularly for transit users. Perceptions that the commute has value other than arriving at a destination significantly increases satisfaction for all modes. Findings from this study provide a better understanding of determinants of trip satisfaction to transport professionals who are interested in this topic and working on increasing satisfaction among different mode users. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

A challenge arising in this 2 context concerns the selection of the most influential input parameters. A model Sensitivity Analysis (SA) should be 3 used with this aim. Unfortunately, due to the limitation of time and computational resources, a proper SA is hardly 4 performed in the common practice. 5 A recent study introduced a methodology based on Gaussian process meta-models for the SA of 6 computationally expensive traffic simulation models. Its main limitation was, however, its dependence on the model 7 dimensionality. When the model has more than 15{\~{}}20 parameters (depending on its regularity), the estimation of a 8 Gaussian process meta-model (also known as Kriging meta-model) may become problematic. In this light, the SA of 9 high-dimensional and computationally expensive models still remains an issue. 10 In the present paper, the Kriging-based approach has been coupled with another recently developed 11 approach (the quasi-OTEE) for the SA of computationally expensive models. The quasi-OTEE SA can be used to 12 identify the whole sub-set of sensitive parameters of a high-dimensional model, and the Kriging-based SA can then 13 be used to refine the analysis and rank the different parameters of the sub-set in a more reliable way. The application 14 of this new SA method is illustrated with the Wiedemann-74 car-following model.

The author recommends a statewide taskforce for 7 modeling to improve statewide data and model interoperability and investments in a project-and corridor-8 level empirical evaluation methodology to produce standardized micro-scale data. The author 9 recommends these efforts be aided by a statewide data integration office that assists transportation and 10 land-use authorities in making sense of big data. Other recommendations include the transition to a 11 modal emissions model, the use of fuel sales and remote sensing to validate transportation CO2 12 measurements, and establishing regional emissions targets that are responsive to changes in exogenous 13 factors. While specific to the California policy context and implementation of the state's Sustainable 14 Communities and Climate Protection Act of 2008 (SB 375), the findings have relevance to other areas of 15 the United States and internationally as subnational jurisdictions look to adopt greenhouse gas targets for 16 transportation.},

abstract = {Connected vehicle technology offers great potential to improve the safety and the mobility of a transportation system. Probe data collection is one feature of connected vehicle technology in which vehicles collect information such as their location and speed. Probe data could be used to support various traffic management and traveler information applications. This paper presents the novel R2 protocol, used to collect probe data in a connected vehicle environment. The core principle of R2 protocol is to collect only vehicle snapshots when a significant change occurs in vehicle speed. Data from a connected vehicle simulation test bed in Boise, Idaho, and a real-world test bed in Oakland County, Michigan, were used to evaluate the proposed protocol. An average speed method and a method with its basis in the reconstruction of vehicle time-speed plots were used to estimate link travel time. Linear regression, cubic spline, and piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation were applied to reconstruct time-speed plots. The proposed R2 protocol was compared with three existing protocols: fixed 2-s, fixed 4-s, and SAE J2735. The results from the simulation test bed indicated that the R2 protocol not only out-performed the three protocols in error measurement but also required fewer snapshots to achieve the lower-error value. The snapshots recorded by the R2 protocol were 30{\%}, 26{\%}, and 4{\%} lower than those recorded by the other three J2735 protocols. The Michigan test bed case study showed that the R2 protocol produced fewer errors and needed 11{\%} fewer snapshots than the SAE J2735 protocol.},

The traditional demand modeling approach is to 3 focus on a " typical " commuter, who is a full time worker with a fixed workplace and who 4 commutes every workday according to a fixed schedule in the peak periods. This paper 5 investigates the evolution of alternative work arrangements such as part-time work, self-6 employment, working from home, telecommuting, and flexible and/or compressed work 7 schedules, as well as the incorporation of these factors in travel demand modeling. Three 8 interlinked sub-models of the regional Activity-Based Model (ABM) were developed for 9 Jerusalem: 10  Strategic long-term model that predicts employment type (owner/self-employed or 11 hired), full-time vs. part-time worker status, number of jobs (to account for specifics of 12 multiple-job holders), and usual workplace type (home vs. outside). 13  Long-term workplace location choice model for those whose usual workplace is 14 outside home. 15  Mid-term model that relates to usual commuting frequency and flexibility. Commuting 16 frequency choice incorporates the possibility of a compressed work week. This is 17 combined with possible telecommuting frequency. Two other dimensions relate to 18 work schedule flexibility and usual commuting hours (outbound and inbound). 19 20 All choice models were estimated based on the recent Household Travel Survey in 21 Jerusalem.

abstract = {This paper explores the potential role of indigenous transport for increasing the adaptive capacity of selected cities in developing Asia. Indigenous transport drivers were surveyed face-to-face in Bandung, Indonesia, and in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, to gain an understanding of how transport workers, specifically drivers-operators, characterize transport modes considered as indigenous and perceive their potential role in increasing the adaptive capacity of these cities. The main finding was that indigenous transport modes in the two cities in the case study had evolved to fit a niche market influenced by differing urban scales and divergent demographic and geographic characteristics. Thus, the experiences and the perceptions of transport workers on indigenous transport were highly contextualized in relation to service and route characteristics. Operating conditions for drivers were indicative of the regulatory status of indigenous transport modes in the informal landscape. This analysis contributes to an increased understanding of the role and the operation of indigenous transport modes within the transport system. The analysis also contributes policy-relevant insights to improve an understanding of the potential role of indigenous transport in climate change adaptation, as well as to increase awareness and to anticipate a shift to a more environmentally sustainable transport mode.},

Usage patterns consist of frequency, travel purpose, riding distance and use 8 form (transfer or not). Users of Mode A view PBSS as a feeder to conventional public transit and 9 mainly cycle in commuting, while most users of Mode B ride public bicycle with no-transfer for 10 leisure travel. In addition, these two groups are different in terms of personal characteristics, 11 household characteristics, degree of satisfaction and choosing reasons. Furthermore, Mode B 12 could be separated into two subgroups based on frequency. The age and education background of 13 these two subgroups, B-1 and B-2, are different as well.

abstract = {The relationships between travel behavior and land use patterns have been the object of intensive research in the past two decades. Because of their immediate policy implications, mode choice and vehicle miles traveled have been the main focus of attention. Other relevant dimen-sions, such as trip chaining, tour type choice, and number of tours, have received less attention. This paper contributes to research dealing with the role of land use patterns in tour type choice. A tour type choice is modeled with a hybrid choice model that allows simulating the effect of the latent propensity to travel in the discrete choice among types of tours. This model is applied to a travel diary of workers collected in the Lisbon, Portugal, metropolitan area in 2009. Various model specifications were built and tested the inclusion of purportedly built land use factors, which have the advantage of better capturing the multidimensionality of the urban environment or land use variables, or a combination of these. The results show significant effects on tour type choice related to land use pat-terns. Land use patterns influence not only the utility functions but also the propensity to travel. Workers who reside in central, mixed, and tra-ditional urban spaces tend to have a higher propensity to travel. Workers who live in more diverse areas have a higher probability of engaging in more complex work-related tours. Working in suburban areas reduces the probability of engaging in more complex tours.},

The paper investigates the scenario in which, as a result of high aviation carbon taxes, air fares increase by 50{\%}. To assess such impacts, choice probabilities of vacation alternatives, which were conceptualized as portfolios consisting of a destination, mode of transport, accommodation type, and length of stay, were simulated by using a portfolio vacation choice model. Lower and upper bounds of the impacts were derived. Simulation results suggested that a substantial reduction of the contribution of tourism travel to anthropogenic climate change could be achieved. Tourism trani-related CO{\textless}inf{\textgreater}2{\textless}/inf{\textgreater}-equivalent emissions were estimated to drop between 9{\%} and 32{\%}. Furthermore, it was found that the choice probability of nearby destinations ({\textless}200 km) increased considerably: between 4{\%} and 18{\%}.

Reliable tools are needed for estimating the operations at these discontinuities and evaluating their capacity. This paper proposes an analytical model that estimates the capacity at a diverging junction according to the kinematic wave theory of Lighthill, Whitham, and Richards. The model assumes that exiting vehicles drive temporarily at a speed that is lower than the free-flow speed. The slow vehicles are considered moving bottlenecks. In the methodology, the acceleration is assumed to be infinite in a first step. But, because it is a key factor in explaining the capacity drop, this assumption is relaxed in a second step through a constant acceleration rate used for all the vehicles. In this study, the moving bottleneck theory is used to compute the effective flow passing the diverging junction and the corresponding relative capacity drop. The analytical results are assessed with microsimulation results.},

abstract = {Vehicular traffic is a major source of ambient air pollution in urban areas. Traffic-related air pollutants, including carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter less than 2.5 $\mu$m in diameter, and diesel exhaust emissions, have been associated with adverse human health effects, especially in areas near major roads. In addition to emissions from vehicles, ambient concentrations of air pollutants include contributions from stationary sources and background (or regional) sources. Although dispersion models have been widely used to evaluate air quality strategies and policies and can represent the spatial and temporal variation in environments near roads, the use of these models in health studies to estimate air pollutant exposures has been relatively limited. This paper summarizes the modeling system used to estimate exposures in the Near-Roadway Exposure and Urban Air Pollutant Study, an epidemiological study that examined 139 children with asthma or symptoms consistent with asthma, most of whom lived near major roads in Detroit, Michigan. Air pollutant concentrations were estimated with a hybrid modeling framework that included detailed inventories of mobile and stationary sources on local and regional scales; the RLINE, AERMOD, and CMAQ dispersion models; and monitored observations of pollutant concentrations. The temporal and spatial variability in emissions and exposures over the 2.5-year study period and at more than 300 home and school locations was characterized. The paper highlights issues with the development and understanding of the significance of traffic-related exposures through the use of dispersion models in urban-scale exposure assessments and epidemiology studies.},

The potential of cyclists using digital navigation even to reach familiar destinations is rising but adequate technology is not available yet. For realistic routing and real-time cycling assistance, profound knowledge about expected waiting times at traffic signals and cycling behavior between the stops is essential. Global positioning system (GPS) tracks of cyclists can be used to obtain both. This paper presents a first step in this direction by suggesting methods to analyze waiting times at signaled junctions. Furthermore, user profiles representing cycling behavior in urban areas is extracted from cycling trajectories. An algorithm to identify signal control cycle times for intersections is proposed. Waiting times and speed gradients are analyzed to estimate the offset times and green-light duration. GPS tracks have been acquired by cyclists riding specific routes between two locations in the city center of Vienna. Methods to preprocess the GPS tracks are applied. From these tracks cyclists{\^{a}}€™ profiles are calculated to show the behavior in free flow traffic and at traffic lights. This paper finally shows results of both estimating the signal cycle time and the single pattern at a bidirectional route with ten traffic lights. Positive verification is conducted comparing the GPS track based result to the real signal programs.},

Since the number of possible configurations is very high, an optimisation 14 algorithm will be presented to reduce the calculation time and to find configurations with the highest 15 economic efficiency. 16 One result of the infrastructure optimisation is that for a taxi fleet in Munich, Germany, which 17 consist of 3,402 vehicles with a battery capacity of 20 kWh, 445 CSs would be economically ideal.},

abstract = {Modeling the contribution of multi-tasking to the utility of travel episodes would be an important objective in the development of the next generation of activity-based models. Conducting activities whilst traveling may affect the utility of activity episodes in a daily schedule. If evidence to that effect can be established, an elaboration of current activity-based models seems warranted. In this paper, as a first step towards the development of such comprehensive activity-based models, we formulate a random effects regression model to analyze the effects of multi-tasking on respondents' judgments of travel experiences of distinct travel episodes. We extend previous research with a focus on the extent and nature of multi-tasking during a single trip. We analyze repeated judgments of the same individuals for multiple travel episodes, collected over a period of three consecutive months. This longitudinal data analysis allows us to better differentiate between personality traits, temporal effects, multi-tasking and the embedding of travel episodes in the larger activity-travel chains. Results indicate that multi-tasking has a positive impact on travelers' judgments of travel experiences. Significant effects were also found for the kind of activity that was conducted immediately before and after the travel episode. We conclude therefore that it seems beneficial to include multi-tasking in a new generation of activity-based models, and that the suggested conceptualization and model formulation are feasible and valuable building blocks in the development of such more comprehensive activity-based models. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {This paper uses a utility-theoretic econometric model to investigate the joint mode choice and travel distance of elderly people (age 65+). The main objective is to investigate the possibility and extent of transportation-related social exclusion of elderly people. Empirical models are estimated by using a household travel survey conducted in the National Capital Region (NCR) of Canada. Modal accessibility is considered as a determinant of travel distance. The spatial expansions method is used to capture spatial dispersion and disparity of elderly people for different activity types. Multi-variable interactions are used to capture systematic variations of total distance travel demand across age groups for different activity types. Empirical model reveals that elderly people living in the NCR are prone to transportation-related social exclusion. It is evident that the effects of poor accessibility and unfavourable land use patterns are not the same across the region. The NCR is proven to be a monocentric and central business district (CBD) oriented region. Elderly people living far from the CBD need to travel longer distances that further increase with age. With an increasingly elderly population in the region, the risk of transportation-related social exclusion also increases. Most importantly, transportation-related social exclusion in the NCR is driven more by the region's urban form and land use patterns than the performance of the regional transportation system.},

It is found that similar to the notion of the Network Fundamental Diagram (NFD) of vehicular traffic, pedestrian crowds have an area-wide fundamental diagram. It is also shown that pedestrian traffic in a multidirectional area, exhibits hysteretic behavior similar to some other many-particle physical systems. Moreover, this paper explores some of the underlying dynamics of bidirectional pedestrian streams using empirical data. We show that pedestrian streams behave somewhat differently from ordinary fluids with regard to the viscosity concept in the models based on fluid dynamics. It is found that the velocity profile for both unidirectional and bidirectional pedestrian streams is hyperbolic with higher values on the boundaries and lower values in the middle, in opposite of the velocity profile of fluids. This paper also explores the formation and dissipation of self-organized pedestrian lanes. Thus, a modification to Helbing{\^{a}}€™s social force model is proposed with regard to the attractive force between pedestrians.},

However, the nature of aggregation and the cross-sectional approach of the research 4 rarely provides crucial clues to time sequence between 'cause' and 'effect' since it only 5 considers one point in time. From the perspective of longitudinal approach, this paper develops 6 regression models for rail transit stations in Los Angeles Metro system. The models attempt to 7 identify the socio-demographic characteristics and land use features influencing on longitudinal 8 transit ridership changes. Step-wise ordinary least square (OLS) regression models are used to 9 identify factors that contribute to transit ridership changes. Those factors include number of 10 dwelling units, employment-oriented land uses such as office and commercial land uses, and the 11 land use balance. The models suggest a negative relationship between job and population balance 12 with transit ridership change. They also raise a question regarding the ¼ mile (0.4 km) radius 13 commonly used in transit analysis. The models indicate that the ¼ mile (0.4 Km) of geographical 14 extent is too small to capture the significant influence of built environment on transit ridership.},

Yet, financing to mitigate climate change impacts—flows dubbed " climate finance " —are clearly not sufficient to meet the challenge of funding transport projects, which require significant up-front investments and incur costs over longer time periods than other comparable assets. In order to successfully leverage climate finance, prospective recipients must ensure that local conditions reflect the capability to plan for, access, and operationalize financing, and to monitor and report on impacts. These conditions, defined broadly as " readiness " , apply to the roles of governments, institutional stakeholders, and the private sector, as well as to local resources and market conditions. This paper analyses the capacities and actions that are needed to successfully utilize climate finance, demonstrating that there are seven broad categories of preparedness which enable the development of low-carbon transport. It concludes that recipient countries that focus on readiness stand to benefit not only from well-leveraged climate finance but from broader sustainable development impacts as well.},

These models are typically given precise, point-estimate inputs that are mathematically linked, through a series of submodels, to forecasted model outputs. These point-estimate inputs represent an unrealistic level of precision and a growing body of research is focusing on statistical techniques to model uncertainty in model inputs and parameters and tracking the effects of this uncertainty through the various submodels to the model outputs. The purpose of the paper is to present an uncertainty analysis of the Large Zone Economic Module (LZEM) of the Simple, Efficient, Elegant, and Effective Model (SE 3 M) of land use and transportation. Three case study implementations of the model are used to obtain a fairly complete picture of how uncertainty affects LZEM outputs. The three case studies are: Guam, Puerto Rico, and Oahu, Hawaii. These three case studies were the subject of an early transferability study with SE 3 M and were selected based on both their insularity and their diverse physical, economic, and demographic geographies. The findings of this research demonstrate that LZEM has a robust framework, with the potential to estimate error both in the positive and negative direction under uncertain input/parameter conditions.},

abstract = {In the past 10 to 15 years, carsharing has attracted significant attention as a green transportation alternative that can reduce car dependence and promote smarter, healthier mode choice in urban areas. Despite rapid growth and aggressive funding, carsharing remains a niche product with quantifiable but relatively small benefits. A new type of carsharing seeks to expand its reach, and perhaps its benefits, by eliminating some of the inconveniences of traditional services, such as having to book in advance and having to return the car to the same location. Flexible carsharing, pioneered by Daimler's car2go program in late 2008, also introduces a logistical problem not present in traditional carsharing: the spatial distribution of vehicles tends to be irregular because of the randomness of demand. Vehicle redistribution, which can be done periodically (e.g., at the end of the day) or continuously, can be used to ameliorate this problem. By using an agent-based model of a flexible carsharing system, this research explores the trade-offs between fleet size and hired vehicle redistributors, with the objective of maximizing the demand level that can be satisfactorily served. Production functions for representative city sizes and demand densities are presented. Finally, the results of the simulation are compared with actual data from car2go's Austin, Texas, operation. The comparison shows that the simulation results are reasonably close to the measured performance of one-way carsharing in Austin.},

abstract = {1 2 Pedestrian crossings at intersections are always associated with significant issues 3 affecting the psychological aversion and safety of pedestrians, which has to be reflected 4 during roadway operations. There are basically two types of conflict events. One type 5 happens when pedestrians crossing on green light at intersection and conflict with right-6 turn vehicles. Another type is the case when pedestrians cross a street in front of through 7 movement vehicles stopped around stop lines, while those through movement vehicles 8 encroach pedestrians' crosswalks. To understand the occurrence between auto mobile and 9 pedestrian that related conflict events at intersections would be a practical base for further 10 discussions of practical countermeasures and treatments. Existing studies however have 11 not revealed clearly what is the relationship between conflict events and their 12 contributing factors. In this paper, a fuzzy table look-up scheme is identified to depict 13 such non-linear and complicated relationships for the estimation of corresponding 14 conflict levels. The model structure and fuzzy rule base are flexible since they both are 15 generated based on real data pairs from field studies. A case study in Houston, TX 16 illustrates the modeling process. Validation results show that the conflict levels at 12 17 intersections out of the total 13 intersections for validation studies correctly match the 18 observed ones. Based on the estimation results, corresponding treatments for each 19 conflict level were then proposed. The developed modeling procedure is cost-efficient for 20 field engineers to quickly pre-scan the pedestrian related conflict levels among all 21 intersections within their jurisdictions for further in-depth studies.},

abstract = {This paper presents a cost scaling based successive approximation algorithm, called $\epsilon$-BA ($\epsilon$-optimal bush algorithm), to solve the user equilibrium traffic assignment problem by successively refining $\epsilon$-optimal flows. As $\epsilon$ reduces to zero, the user equilibrium solution is reached. The proposed method is a variant of bush-based algorithms, and also a variant of the min-mean cycle algorithm to solve the min-cost flow by successive approximation. In $\epsilon$-BA, the restricted master problem, implying traffic equilibration restricted on a bush, is solved to $\epsilon$-optimality by cost scaling before bush reconstruction. We show that $\epsilon$-BA can reduce the number of flow operations substantially in contrast to Dial's Algorithm B, as the former operates flows on a set of deliberately selected cycles whose mean values are sufficiently small. Further, the bushes can be constructed effectively even if the restricted master problem is not solved to a high level of convergence, by leveraging the $\epsilon$-optimality condition. As a result, the algorithm can solve a highly precise solution with faster convergence on large-scale networks compared to our implementation of Dial's Algorithm B. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

The 3 paper investigates the dynamics explicitly by looking into residential relocation, change in 4 employment and change in car ownership level and the temporal relationship among these 5 long-term decisions and with household events like cohabitation, separation, childbirth, 6 child's home leaving and retirement. A Bayesian Belief Network approach is followed to 7 investigate the underlying causal structure and learning the parameters. Data used for the 8 analysis are obtained from a retrospective survey in the Utrecht region of the Netherlands. 9 The results suggest that very limited interdependencies among car ownership change, 10 residential relocation and change in employment exist. The only relationship found is 11 between car acquisition and moving to a smaller dwelling. Time dependencies are also found 12 in the analysis. The important findings, in this regard, are that birth of the first child has an 13 advanced effect on moving to a larger dwelling and car acquisition; cohabitation has a lagged 14 effect on employer change; cohabitation has also a concurrent effect on moving up, car 15 acquisition and employer change; divorce or separation has only a concurrent effect on 16 moving to a smaller dwelling and car disposal.},

These criteria are based on design side friction factors, which were established in the 5 1940s. The objective of this research is to establish a probabilistic approach to the design of horizontal 6 curves and to compare the results to current design criteria. Reliability analysis is commonly used in 7 structural engineering and has been used recently in stopping sight distance research for transportation 8 design. Design variables are considered random instead of deterministic to incorporate variations that 9 occur in the field (e.g., driver heterogeneity or differences in tire performance characteristics) into the 10 analysis. The effects of wet pavements and differing tire characteristics for passenger cars and heavy 11 trucks are considered. Superelevation rate is considered as a design input and minimum radii for a target 12 reliability index are presented for combinations of input mean speeds and superelevation rates. All other 13 design inputs are considered as random variables (e.g. available pavement friction), along with their 14 appropriate distributions, for reliability analysis. The results show that a target reliability index of 3.0 is 15 appropriate for use in probabilistic design of horizontal curves. Results also indicate that heavy trucks can 16 reasonably be accommodated by design criteria for passenger cars, considering only skidding failure. 17 Recommendations for future research are presented considering probabilistic methods and more complex 18 models of horizontal curve forces.},

abstract = {1 Midsize cities face a number of sustainability challenges, particularly in terms of 2 transportation and land use, however only a small subset of the literature has attempted to 3 address these issues. Examination of the state of the art in midsize city research reveals 4 two obvious reasons for this: there is no consensus on a framework for defining midsize 5 cities, nor is there an empirical understanding of the characteristics of midsize cities. This 6 paper addresses both of these issues from the transportation planning perspective by 7 providing an evidence-based definition for midsize cities in Canada, which highlights 8 their unique travel behavior characteristics. Although the premise of this exercise is fairly 9 simple, it contributes to practice in a number of ways. Most importantly, it establishes a 10 common framework for Canadian urban policy-makers and researchers to use in 11 communicating, sharing and comparing their work. Secondly, it allows Canadian 12 municipalities to understand their peers, and to measure their progress according to their 13 size and functional characteristics. Finally, it demonstrates a method for classifying and 14 comparing municipalities, which may be used to develop a similar framework in other 15 countries. The results of the Canadian urban classification analysis prove that midsize 16 cities are indeed uniquely automobile centric, and that over 37{\%} of Canadians currently 17 live in midsize cities. Given this, it is crucial that researchers and policy-makers turn their 18 attention to midsize cities and develop policy tools that are tailored to these 19 municipalities. 20 21 INTRODUCTION 22 In the literature that involves midsize cities, there is one strong and consistent theme: not 23 enough attention is paid to midsize cities, be it in Canada, in the United States or globally 24 (1-5). Unlike large cities, midsize cities are typically not the focus of urban research, and 25 thus, do not have a broad spectrum of policy tools at their disposal (1). Planners and 26 researchers agree that midsize cities are unique (1-4), particularly in terms of 27 transportation and land use characteristics. However, midsize cities are ill served by the 28 lack of research and policy focus on their specific context. This policy deficiency in 29 midsize cities has led to the current situation, in which many Canadian cities are now 30 struggling to find the right tools to use for reorienting decades of automobile-centric and 31 dispersed development. 32 A review of the literature suggests that a primary barrier standing between 33 midsize cities and policy makers is the fact that there is no unanimity over what a midsize 34 city is. Unfortunately, the discord around the definition for midsize cities is exacerbated 35 by seemingly arbitrary use of the terms " midsize city " or " medium sized city " . It is easy 36 to understand, then, why midsize cities remain underrepresented in most of the literature 37 and policy discussions – it is daunting to research something that has no clear definition. 38 Further, with no consistent definition of midsize cities available in the literature, it is 39 difficult to compare and accumulate findings from different studies. Thus, very little 40 momentum has been gained in understanding these cities. 41 This paper contributes to urban planning practice by providing an evidence-based 42 definition for midsize cities. This midsize city definition is developed for the Canadian 43 context, and as part of a larger research project, which is tasked with investigating the 44 unique culture of Canadian midsize cities as it relates to transportation and land use 45 planning. 46},

abstract = {Commonly, frequency of social interaction is modelled as a function of an ego's socio-demographic characteristics and dyad characteristics of ego and alters. This study is based on the contention that proximity to alters and accessibility to services and degree of urbanization moderate this relationship. In addition, marking the contribution of this study to the literature, social interaction frequencies are dynamic and change over time. Therefore, face-to-face interaction frequencies are subjected to the history of interaction and distance dynamics between actors. By taking these aspects into account, important research questions can be addressed, for instance, would the frequency of meeting between an ego and an alter increase if the alter lives nearby now, but was previously located far away? Or how often would the ego meet an alter who was living nearby but moved to a more distant location now? The answers could provide important feedback to tie maintenance, strength, disappearances and social travel dynamics over time. This study draws from the concepts of path dependence, life course and accessibility and shows that history and accessibility indicators can explain part of the frequency of face-to-face interactions. Life cycle events were taken as triggers of these changes. Retrospective survey data are used for the analyses. Face-to-face social interaction frequency between egos and their alters was recorded before and after the life cycle event. A stepwise ordered logit model estimation reveals that social travel frequency can be better predicted when geographical indicators and path dependence are included in the model specification. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Word Count: 5,359 + 2,000 (7 Figures + 1 Table) = 7,359 ABSTRACT 1 One of the ways to reduce excessive stop-and-go driving on urban streets is to optimize signal 2 timings. More recently new methods in traffic signal optimization have incorporated changes in 3 drivers' behavior to achieve optimum performance at signalized intersections. One such 4 application is called GLOSA -Green Light Optimized Speed Advisory. GLOSA is a method that 5 uses traffic signal information to provide drivers (through infrastructure-to-vehicle 6 communication) with speed advice for a more uniform commute with less stopping time through 7 traffic signals. Recent results showed that a GLOSA system works efficiently only if exact 8 durations of signal phases are known. Objective of this paper is to further evaluate performance 9 of a GLOSA system in real-world-like conditions. Could GLOSA and similar speed-advisory 10 methods replace a need for retiming traffic signals? This paper attempts to answer this question 11 by applying a GLOSA approach on a set of (optimal and suboptimal) signal timings from an 12 urban corridor in Salt Lake City, UT. A VISSIM model of a 5-intersection corridor, calibrated 13 and validated with field data, is used to test two types of signal timings: fixed and actuated. The 14 field signal timings from the case-study corridor are optimized by VISGAOST, a Genetic 15 Algorithm Stochastic Optimization tool based on VISSIM evaluations. The results suggest that 16 the GLOSA does not have an equal effect on traffic with fixed-time and actuated-coordinated 17 signal timings, where the latter ones are collected as averages from historic records and 18 embedded into the GLOSA algorithm. If the phase durations are predictable, as with fixed-time 19 signal timings, then GLOSA has a significantly positive effect on number of stops and fuel 20 consumption. However, if accurate signal timings are not known then it is likely that GLOSA 21 will not bring a positive impact on traffic performance. 22},

These are often the primary roadway into and through smaller 4 communities. Local governments sometimes seek SIS designation to achieve funding for increasing the 5 capacity or improving the function of the major roadway leading to consideration of a bypass. Observed 6 issues with these bypasses include: 1) the SIS designation assigns level of service and design criteria that 7 increase pressure for a bypass alternative; 2) misconceptions abound regarding potential positive and 8 negative impacts of a bypass; 3) inadequate consideration is given to evaluating the potential indirect 9 impacts of a bypass on land use and related issues (e.g., livability, local mobility); 4) without local 10 roadway network planning in impacted areas, many local trips will likely rely on the new bypass; 5) 11 access management is critical not only for the bypass, but also along major roadways accessing the 12 bypass and their interchanges; 6) the bypassed roadway may be oversized in relation to local mobility 13 needs and could benefit from multimodal enhancements; and 7) proactive attention is needed to address 14 the potential indirect land use and mobility impacts to aid in determining appropriate plans, strategies, and 15 mitigation measures.

To  address these concerns, programs such as the Paul S. Sarbanes Transit in Parks (TRIP) Program have  provided funding for alternative transportation systems (ATS), such as ferry facilities, shuttle buses, rail  connections and bicycle trails. After an alternative transportation improvement is implemented, it is  beneficial to determine how well it achieves its original objectives. In the fall of 2012 through spring of  2013, TRIPTAC (TRIP Technical Assistance Center) conducted a study to develop a process that can be  used to evaluate the benefits of projects funded by the TRIP program. The team chose study locations  based on multiple criteria such as agency, type of unit (rural, urban, etc.), and type of ATS (bus vehicle,  trail facility, etc.). The team assessed projects implemented in each of the locations in two ways: how  well they achieved the measures of effectiveness related to TRIP program goals, and how well they  achieved the management's purpose for the grant. Findings from this study suggested that many  individual units do not have the expertise to systematically evaluate the benefits of ATS; therefore, it is  recommended that FLMAs (Federal Land Management Agencies) create and support a process to  evaluate ATS projects. A framework is proposed to assist FLMAs to select goals, objectives, and potential  performance metrics and procedures to implement evaluations.},

abstract = {The use of cell phones and portable music players has become a serious safety issue on the country's roadways. Many people find it difficult to separate themselves from these devices despite being engaged in activities such as driving, bicycling, or walking. The past decade has seen improved bicycle infrastructure in many metropolitan areas which has increased bicycle ridership and promoted various health and environmental benefits associated with bicycling. The number of bicycle trips has risen noticeably across the country, as has the number of bicyclists who perform a secondary task while riding a bicycle. This paper focuses on distracted bike riding and its relation to other unsafe bicycling behaviors such as not wearing a bicycle helmet or riding against traffic. The 2012 National Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian Attitudes and Behavior collected a total of 7,509 interviews which were conducted among a national representative sample of individuals 16 years old or older. Respondents who had ridden a bicycle within the past year and who reported having used an electronic device such as a cell phone or a mp3 player for at least some of their rides (distracted bike riders) demonstrated a higher prevalence of unsafe behaviors than those who hardly ever or never used an electronic device while riding a bicycle (non- distracted bike riders). Riding a bicycle while distracted may increase reaction times, reduce awareness and mask the noise of traffic and the rider's surroundings. In addition, distracted bike riders were more likely to have been injured which elevates the risk to those riders and others around them.},

The current study proposes an RP approach that utilizes a large amount of GPS data from probe vehicles providing insight into actual route choice behavior. Mixed path size correction logit models were estimated from samples of 5759 observations in the peak period and 7964 observations in the off-peak period while specifying a mean-variance model considering both congestion and reliability terms. Results illustrate that the value of time and the value of congestion are significantly higher in the peak period because of possible higher penalties for being late and consequently possible higher time pressure. Moreover, results show that the marginal rate of substitution between travel time reliability and total travel time does not vary across time periods and traffic conditions, with the obvious caveat that the absolute values are significantly higher for the peak period. Last, results show the immense potential of exploiting the growing availability of large amounts of data from cheap and enhanced technology to obtain estimates of the monetary value of different travel time components from the observation of actual behavior, with arguably potential significant impact on the realism of large-scale models.},

However, the available traffic states can be high-dimensional for 7 high-density or large scale road networks. Therefore, we present a spatio-temporal variable selec-8 tion based support vector regression (VS-SVR) model fed with the high-dimensional traffic data 9 collected from all available road segments. Our prediction framework can be presented as a two-10 stage model. In the first stage, we employ the multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) 11 model to select a set of predictors most related to the target one from the high-dimensional spatio-12 temporal variables, and reasonable weights are assigned to the selected predictors. In the second 13 stage, the kernel learning method, support vector regression (SVR), is trained on the weighted vari-14 ables in the second stage for prediction. In the experiments, we employ the actual traffic volume 15 collected from a subarea of Shanghai, China, every 10 minutes. The experimental results indicate 16 that the proposed spatio-temporal variable selection based support vector regression model can 17 generate preferable results in contrast with the time series based autoregression (AR) method, the 18 separate MARS model, and the SVR model.},

abstract = {Airlines reduced available domestic capacity at airports across the United States from 2007 to 2012 in response to a global economic downturn and high and volatile fuel prices. More recently, despite an economic recovery and more stable fuel prices, airlines have continued to keep capacity low relative to historical levels in a strategy that has been referred to as "capacity discipline." The effects of these shifts in capacity on airport connectivity to the global air transportation network remain unclear. This paper introduces an intuitive index to compute airport connectivity as a function of both the quantity and quality of scheduled nonstop and connecting service. Connectivity scores were computed for 462 U.S. airports; medium-hub and small-hub airports were found to have lost more connectivity on average than large-hub airports from 2007 to 2012. In multiairport regions, losses in connectivity at secondary and tertiary airports outpaced losses at primary airports. With lower levels of connectivity, smaller airports in these regions will need to employ creative strategies to prevent passengers from leaking to primary hubs. Whether these airports can recover from connectivity consolidation will also depend on how long the capacity discipline equilibrium remains in effect among U.S. airlines.},

The trace of the covariance matrix is adopted as a measure of variability in traffic flow. On the basis of the trace of the covariance matrix in the posterior estimation of traffic flow conditional on a given set of sensor locations, the general form of the NSLP is derived. As an illustration, the multivariate normal distribution for the prior estimation of traffic flow is assumed. In this case, the actual value of the counted flows is not required. Furthermore, an incremental method that can avoid matrix inversion and give priorities of the identified sensor locations is presented to solve the NSLP.

abstract = {The vast majority of studies of travel and the built environment are cross sectional in nature, using household travel data at a single point in time to predict travel behavior. They demonstrate correlation among variables but not causation. Natural experiments offer an advantage in causal inference due to the temporal ordering of events. Causes always precede effects. Such natural experiments occur every time a new transit line is built. Well-located transit lines will attract new development, changing the density of the station areas and the travel behavior of nearby residents. This study assesses the effects of the Westside Max light rail transit (LRT) line running from downtown Portland, OR to Beaverton and Hillsboro. The authors compare household travel characteristics before and after the “intervention” of the transit line. The line was expected to, and did, affect development patterns and travel behavior of households proximate to it. In this natural experiment, the “treated” group consists of households around stations on the LRT line. The “control” group consists of households around intersections on a highway corridor heading southwest from downtown Portland to Tigard and beyond. The two corridors are similarly situated in the region and had similar densities and household travel characteristics four years before the LRT line was built. The authors found that, compared to the control corridor, the treated corridor became denser, generated more household transit trips, and saw a reduction in VMT per household after LRT had been in operation for 13 years.},

abstract = {It has been widely argued that residential self-selection results from two sources: attitudes and socio-demographic traits. This argument may be true if decisions were made with respect to only residential and travel behavior. Since decisions on residential and travel behavior are just a part of people's life choice decisions, the influence of life choice on the self-selection cannot be ignored. In this context, a life-oriented approach proposed by the author becomes relevant, where it is argued that residential and travel decisions are interdependent not only with each other, but also with other life domains as a part of general life decisions. This paper conceptually argued and empirically confirmed the necessity of developing a life-oriented approach to re-examine the residential self-selection issues. It is proposed that life choices should be treated as an additional source of the self-selection, dynamic interdependencies between residential choice, travel behavior, and other life choices should be properly modeled. As a policy implication, the life-oriented approach suggests that successful evidence-based transport and land use policies should be decided together with policies in other significantly relevant sectors (e.g., health and environment) and such cross-sectoral policies could contribute to the improvement of people's quality of life (QOL) in a better way.},

On the basis of a literature review, possible pathways and their underlying mechanisms were identified. A structural equation model was specified to assess the relative strengths of these pathways. Commuting mode (car and bicycle) was taken into account as a moderating variable. Data used to estimate the models were drawn from the Longitudinal internet Studies for the Social Sciences Panel, a representative sample of Dutch individuals. The results of the analysis indicated that, insular as commute time bad an effect on subjective well-being (only for bicycle commuters could a significant effect be established), this effect was likely mediated by a person's satisfaction with his or her social contacts. No effects between commute time and perceived health, body mass index (HMD, and job satisfaction were found, even though such effects have been reported in previous studies. In addition, commuting mode (car or bicycle) itself had no effect on any of the endogenous variables (except for BMI). In contrast to the findings of previous research, the results indicated that, at least for the Dutch population, commuting patterns (mode and commute time) mattered little in how people subjectively evaluated various aspects of their lives. From a practical point of view, the results of the analysis do not warrant policy intervention. In addition, insofar as policy intervention is desirable, extreme commute behavior should be addressed as a social problem and not a health problem.},

abstract = {227 ABSTRACT 45 The procedure for analyzing roundabout operations in the 2010 U.S. Highway Capacity 46 Manual is based on the assumption of absolute priority to circulating traffic and adjusted with 47 empirical data. Entering drivers have to seek for sufficient gaps in order to merge. However 48 observations at roundabouts operating at or near capacity show reversed or shared priority 49 between entering and circulating vehicles. This phenomenon has been reported elsewhere to 50 influence the capacity, delay and queue length of roundabouts. To study the effects of reversed 51 priority on the performance of roundabouts in the U.S., a roundabout in Fernley, Nevada, 52 operating at capacity for the PM peak period was observed. The driver behavior characteristics 53 were extracted together with the geometric parameters. Based on the observed driver behaviors 54 and traffic flow characteristics, three scenarios were modeled using the micro-simulation 55 software VISSIM. Results obtained after multiple simulation runs showed that roundabout 56 performance improved with increasing periods of reversed priority: delay reduced by 8-16 57 percent and queue length reduced by 10-20 percent for every 10 percent increase in " reversed 58 priority periods " . It was also shown that, as the priority reversal period increased, the influence 59 of the size of inscribed diameter decreased even though an improvement in performance was 60 observed. When the intersection experienced traffic volume increase the performance of the 61 roundabout decreased until it reached a threshold level where it appeared to remain constant.},

Therefore, a new TSP logic proposed to overcome these shortcomings takes advantage of the resources provided by connected vehicle technology, including two-way communications between buses and the traffic signal controller, accurate bus location detection and prediction, and number of passengers. The key feature of the proposed TSP logic is green time reallocation, which moves green time instead of adding extra green time. TSP is also designed to be conditional. That is, delay per person is used as the most important criterion in deciding whether TSP is to be granted.

The authors applied this methodology as an aid to understanding why long-term saturation levels for car travel differed across the countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development study and what this difference meant for the saturation levels that the BRIC countries might attain. This approach factored out development of the gross domestic product (GDP) to focus on the ways in which other factors influenced specific paths of auto-mohility in individual countries. The focus was on this question: Why were the long-term automohility saturation levels so much higher for some countries than for others, even at similar levels of GDP? The methodology drew on quantitative analysis of historical developments in four industrialized countries (the United States, Australia, Germany, and Japan) that served as case studies representing prototypical paths of automobility with extremely different levels of per capita automobility, in combination with qualitative data derived from an expert-based approach. The qualitative approach was used to transfer historical experiences about the ways in which (a) automobility evolution was shaped in industrialized countries and (b) these experiences might affect the future or automohility in the BRIC countries. On the basis of this analysis, Brazil proved the most car-oriented country of the BRICs, with a potential long-term level of automobility between those of Germany and Australia. Russia was the second most car-oriented country, also with a likely long-term level of automobility above that of Germany. China and India, in contrast, were heading toward lower levels of automobility, below that of Germany but higher than that of Japan.},

To optimize supply chains and for the identification of best practice, standards for their analysis are needed in order to achieve comparable evaluations. This need for an evaluation standard also applies to CO2 emission calculations. This research focuses on the transportation within supply chains and possible approaches towards a global standard for calculating its CO2 emissions. In the recent past, several organisations, national and international, have come forward with possible methods, tools and databases for the calculation of CO2 emissions along supply chains, but almost all of them do not cover the entire transportation chain. Also standards for CO2 emissions of products and production in general do exist but they do not take the particular requirements of transportation into consideration. Therefore a global standard specifically for transportation could not yet be introduced. The EN 16258 standard is the only international standard for emission calculation of transportation in supply chains. It was therefore analyzed as a possible starting point for a global standardization approach. Analysis shows it too contains gaps and ambiguities which render comparisons of supply chains difficult. These gaps of the EN 16258 are analyzed, followed by suggestions for methodological improvements for their closure. The research concludes with an outlook on next steps needed towards a global CO2 calculation standard for transportation within supply chains.},

abstract = {Containerization has greatly reduced the cost of international trade by increasing the speed of cargo turnover. However, a large number of empty container movements have been generated by the imbalance of international cargo movements between ports and hinterland importers/exporters. Currently, loaded containers only carry import/export cargoes, and very little work has been done on the utilization of empty containers to carry regional cargoes. Empty containers that move within the hinterland of ports are in large numbers and have a great potential to carry regional cargoes. In this paper, a mathematic model of the use of empty containers to carry regional cargoes is described. The model considered quantities of cargo located at the origins and destinations of empty containers, together with cargo which could be consolidated en route. The financial return on investment has been calculated as a benefit cost ratio to determine the suitability of carrying regional cargoes using the available empty containers. Operational data from a haulage company was used as a case study to increase the reliability of the results. It was concluded that, if managed optimally, carrying regional cargoes in empty containers should be profitable. In the particular case reported in this paper, operational profit can be guaranteed when a haulage cost benefit ratio of 3.05 was achieved.},

DDI is a new 45 type of diamond interchange for many professionals and it provokes their strong interests in 46 studying on it. One major type of current studies on DDIs primarily study signal control strategies 47 on the basis of field implementation and evaluation, and another major type involves comparison 48 with CDIs, Single-point urban interchanges (SPUIs), or other interchanges through microscopic 49 simulation. Up to now, researches on its modeling, analysis, and signal control strategies are still 50 in preliminary stages. Most studies found in the literature only provided some basic phasing 51 schemes which are not the most efficient. Limited literatures studied the effects of cycle length 52 on the performance of traffic signal operation on DDIs. This study comprehensively studies the 53 relationship between the cycle length and operation efficiency of an advanced traffic signal 54 operation on a DDI under five traffic demand scenarios. The simulation results by VISSIM 55 indicate that this study provides several evocative recommendations for selecting the good cycle 56 length of DDIs to traffic professors and engineers. 57},

It adopts the loyalty model, a decision-making model, to better understand and evaluate passengers' attitudes toward public transport (PT) modes. It describes the loyalty model, and then demonstrates and validates its use in transportation using a case study involving a choice between two PT modes: rail and bus. Based on factor analysis, two factors from the loyalty model were identified: loyalty attitude, which measures the repeat purchasing of the PT service and a passenger's attitude toward it; and hedonic commitment, which measures the emotional feeling after using a PT mode. The full loyalty model was validated for both rail and bus passengers. The research shows that like other consuming products, toward which subjective emotional feeling affect the consumer's behavior, passenger choice is significantly affected by subjective emotional feelings toward the PT mode. Additionally, the subjective effect can easily be measured using marketing research techniques.},

METHODS A non-concurrent cohort study of traffic accidents in Fortaleza, CE, Northeastern Brazil, in the period from January 2004 to December 2008. Data from the Fortaleza Traffic Accidents Information System, the Mortality Information System, the Hospital Information System and the State Traffic Department Driving Licenses and Vehicle database. Deterministic and probabilistic relationship techniques were used to integrate the databases. First, descriptive analysis of data relating to people, roads, vehicles and weather was carried out. In the investigation of risk factors for death by traffic accident, generalized linear models were used. The fit of the model was verified by likelihood ratio and ROC analysis. RESULTS There were 118,830 accidents recorded in the period. The most common types of accidents were crashes/collisions (78.1{\%}), running over pedestrians (11.9{\%}), colliding with a fixed obstacle (3.9{\%}), and with motorcycles (18.1{\%}). Deaths occurred in 1.4{\%} of accidents. The factors that were independently associated with death by traffic accident in the final model were bicycles (OR = 21.2, 95{\%}CI 16.1;27.8), running over pedestrians OR = 5.9 (95{\%}CI 3.7;9.2), collision with a fixed obstacle (OR = 5.7, 95{\%}CI 3.1;10.5) and accidents involving motorcyclists (OR = 3.5, 95{\%}CI 2.6;4.6). The main contributing factors were a single person being involved (OR = 6.6, 95{\%}CI 4.1;10.73), presence of unskilled drivers (OR = 4.1, 95{\%}CI 2.9;5.5) a single vehicle (OR = 3.9, 95{\%}CI 2,3;6,4), male (OR = 2.5, 95{\%}CI 1.9;3.3), traffic on roads under federal jurisdiction (OR = 2.4, 95{\%}CI 1.8;3.7), early morning hours (OR = 2.4, 95{\%}CI 1.8;3.0), and Sundays (OR = 1.7, 95{\%}CI 1.3;2.2), adjusted according to the log-binomial model. CONCLUSIONS Activities promoting the prevention of traffic accidents should primarily focus on accidents involving two-wheeled vehicles that most often involves a single person, unskilled, male, at nighttime, on weekends and on roads where they travel at higher speeds.},

Distributions of passenger arrival rates are analyzed based on field data for Beijing. The results indicate that the best fits for the distribution of passenger arrival rates for Type A and B bus stops are the lognormal distribution and gamma distribution, respectively. By analyzing relationships between passenger arrival rates and bus departure time intervals, it is demonstrated that parameters of the passenger arrival rate distribution can be expressed by the average and coefficient of variation of bus departure time intervals in functional relationships. The validation shows that the model provides a reliable estimation of the average passenger waiting time based on readily available bus departure time intervals.},

In other words most markets consist of structures that make up a mosaic 29 which add up to one rather than being a unified entity that acts as one. Market 30 microstructure --the study of these marekt substructures and their effects on market 31 outcomes --is applied to the taxicab market in New York City. Using a richly detailed 32 database on taxi cab rides, origins, destinations and time-of-day patterns are presented 33 and assessed and then categorized in terms of the market microstructures they 34 constitute. The implications of these microstuctures for policy in New York City and 35 beyond are then discussed. 1. Introduction 38 39 Taxicabs are large part of the for-hire transport sector in New York. Being large, it is 40 also quite diverse with many different segments that have dynamics quite divergent 41 from average trends. 42 43 This paper applies concepts drawn from the market microstructure literature in finance 44 to parse out patterns from a very large dataset on taxicab trips in New York City. The 45 paper finds that there are many such microstructures in the New York City taxicab 46 market. 47 48 2. Market microstructure as a concept 49 50 Markets are places of exchange. Spoken of generally, such a definition makes it sound 51 as if the 'market' is a single uniform and seamless entity. 52 53 However, many, if not most markets consist are partitioned into segments that can be 54 quite different from one another. In other words most markets consist of structures that 55 make up a mosaic which add up to one rather than being a unified entity that acts as 56 one. Market microstructure focuses on these substructures and substrata, analyzing 57 differences and commonalities and exploring how these affect both the process of 58 exchange and the outcomes that result from that exchange (1). 59 60 Microstructure analysis can be applied to any market (and will be applied below to the 61 taxi market in New York) but most of its applications in the literature are related to 62 financial markets. Financial markets have the advantage of having enough explicit 63 structure (such as trading rules) and enough transactions data to allow rich and deep 64 description and analysis of microstructural dynamics. 65 66 In this context the major 'dependent variables' are trading (or transaction) costs, prices, 67 volume and trading behavior while market structure and individual agent behavior are 68 the major 'independent variables' at least in the short-run. Longer run horizons might 69 exhibit significant two-way causal interactions. To sum up: agents, when mediated 70 through institutions and market microstructures, might come up with different market 71 outcomes than in the absence of these microstructures. At the same time, these 72 microstructures are often what allow the agents to trade in the first place (2). 73 74 The financial market microstructure literature has three main functional streams: 75 theoretical; empirical; and methodological. The last two are most relevant for this 76 paper's purposes. The empirical stream analyzes data to see what actually happens 77 while the methodological stream focuses on how to best analyze large masses of data 78 to capture what happens accurately. This literature focuses on identifying predictable 79 market patterns and their relationship to, and impact on, the organization of trade, 80 institutional rules, price discovery and volatility and time series return patterns. As far 81 as market characteristics, one review of the literature notes that " the first major feature 82 is the frequency of trading. Markets can be distinguished between periodic call auction 83},

Overall circuity has increased between 1990 and 2010: random points have not only become farther apart in distance, their shortest network path has become more circuitous, suggesting that the more recently constructed parts of street networks are laid out more circuitously than older parts of the network. Over this period, 35 MSAs experienced a statistically significant increase in circuity (6 experienced a significant decrease). As expected, short trips are more circuitous than long trips. A new circuity distance decay function describes how circuity varies with distance within metropolitan areas. The parameters of this function have changed from 1990 to 2010.},

Its industrial base began to deteriorate and the once vibrant seaport began to stagnate as business left for better, busier ports. Boston was not viewed as a place where people wanted to live. Instead, it was considered a place for commerce – a place that people traveled to and from. As a consequence, transportation planners, eager to facilitate the growth of suburbs ringing Boston, proposed and built a number of projects that improved regional mobility at the expense of urban quality of life. Predictably, the Boston neighborhoods that bore the brunt of " transportation improvements " were those with little or no political clout. The Italian immigrant community of East Boston and the largely African American communities of the South End and Roxbury were targeted by transportation planners as places where significant infrastructure projects could be located to promote urban and regional mobility, without regard to their impacts on those neighborhoods.},

abstract = {A bicycling network analysis model applied on an open source geographic information system (GIS) using a unique criteria termed low-stress classification is presented. The platform and associated tools were used to evaluate the connectivity of a municipality and compare it with selected improvements to gaps discovered through the initial analysis. Classifying the available street network based on stress criteria requires geometric and traffic characteristics. These characteristics are related to level of stress that a cyclist perceives using a Dutch bikeway design model. The street network is classified using the stress criteria and connectivity is analyzed for each level of stress. By generating both a network partition diagram based on the stress level criteria and computing trip level indices for each level, one can view what potential exists for improvement in a regional cycling infrastructure. The network is divided into four levels of traffic stress (LTS) with LTS 1 being the most bike friendly and LTS 4 being the least. Safety is the major reason cited for a person's reluctance to riding a bicycle. Hence using a simple and yet intuitive model the author presents a model and a set of tools that allow for a thorough investigation of a current transportation network from a bicyclist point of view and a method of assessing improvement that could increase connectivity at a desired level of tolerance. The author presents that people will not use a network link that exceeds their tolerance and in order to attract the mainstream population, there is a definite need to provide a network of low-stress routes that provide paths with minimum detour between neighborhoods and places of work. The set of criteria proposed here are used to classify both roadway segments and approaches to intersections into the four LTS. LTS 2 is set as the criteria that most adults will tolerate. All the streets in San Jose, California were classified by LTS as a case study. The most obvious result was a set of stress islands appearing in many parts of the city, only within which is travel possible for that level of stress. Barriers are clearly visible and discernable as a result. This revelation brings a level of understanding that was not apparent and leads to improvements that are able to decease the disconnectedness of the network. It is also possible to provide a measure of connectivity and to quantify impacts of proposed improvements.},

Pessaro and Songchitruksa ABSTRACT 1 This paper describes the impacts to transit that were observed in the evaluation of the Seattle 2 Urban Partnership Agreement (UPA). In December 2011, variable tolls were instituted on the SR 3 520 Bridge in Seattle. Transit service frequency was enhanced approximately 11 months prior to 4 tolling. The Seattle findings compare favorably with other congestion pricing projects across the 5 United States and the world. Ridership across the SR 520 Bridge increased 10 percent after the 6 new service was added. It increased another 14 percent after tolling. The larger increase that 7 came after tolls was similar to what was observed in Stockholm and Minneapolis. Speeds across 8 the bridge increased by 14 to 18 miles per hour. That is higher than what was observed in 9 London but lower than what was observed in Miami and Minneapolis. In the pre-toll survey of 10 SR 520 bus riders, 19 percent said they were influenced to take transit because of the enhanced 11 transit service. An even greater percentage, 55 percent, said they said they were influenced to 12 take transit because of the tolls. In Miami, Minneapolis, and Atlanta, the percentage of riders 13 influenced by the tolls was 53 percent, 23 percent, and 45 percent, respectively. In the post-toll 14 survey, 57 percent of the riders said the tolls on SR 520 had improved their personal travel. 15 Altogether, these findings reconfirm that congestion pricing can create a tangible incentive to 16 take transit. 17 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

As pedestrians - unlike vehicles - do not move on a network, but on areas they in principle can choose among an infinite number of routes. To apply assignment algorithms one has to select for each OD pair a finite (realistically a small) number of relevant representatives from these routes. This geometric task is the main focus of this contribution. The main task is to find for an OD pair the relevant routes to be used with common assignment methods. The method is demonstrated for one single OD pair and exemplified with an example.},

It can also 13 provide a file for machine processing. 14 An algorithm named NAUSEA (autoNomous locAl manoeUvre and Scenario orchEstration 15 based on automated action plAnning) was generated to utilise Assignments recorded using OSO. 16 Encoded in the driver model SAIL (Scenario-Aware drIver modeL), NAUSEA can be used by a 17 virtual driver to control simulated vehicles dynamically. Failed Assignments, designed to generate 18 specific interactions, can be re-tried if permitted. A framework SOAV (Scenario Orchestration with 19 Autonomous simulated Vehicles) was formed to support SAIL/NAUSEA and orchestrate scenarios 20 with autonomous vehicles. 21 Three verification experiments showed that SOAV worked properly by generating desired 22 interactions and dealing with failures. OSO can also provide contextual information in a human-23 readable and machine processable manner.},

abstract = {The paper presents a full set of freight demand elasticities for the three modes of rail, road, and waterways navigation with respect to transport cost changes. They are derived from a trans-European transport model developed within the EU's ECCONET program for analyzing traffics that could possibly use waterways transport on the river Rhine and Danube, and for assessing the impacts of climate change on inland navigation. The transport model is based on the NODUS software applied with a multi-flows assignment technique, which minimizes transport costs. Elasticities are presented as aggregate elasticities over a set of 11 commodities, and separately for each commodity; direct and cross-elasticities are also given as well as elasticities per distance category. An important part of the paper is given to comparisons and discussions with and between previously published results. Introduction There are not many multi-modes analyses of freight transport elasticities to be found in the literature, and available estimates cover a wide range of values according to modes and cases. This diversity of results occurs because differences of methodology and data on transport markets; spatial scope and zoning may also affect estimates. These factors must be kept in mind for the results' interpretation and their use in further modeling. Our work within the European ECCONET 1 project on climate impacts on inland navigation led us to set up a trans-European multimodal freight transport model over the Rhine-Danube area. The sub-model presented in this paper, from which it is possible to extract transport demand elasticities, is focused on the Rhine area market (Beuthe et al., 2012 and 2013). This modeling is based on a GIS network and spatial analysis implemented in the NODUS software (Jourquin, 1995, Jourquin and Beuthe, 1996). Using the concept of virtual link, it systematically decomposes transport chains into several operations. It assigns traffic by minimization of the generalized transport cost which is the sum of all the operations' costs incurred from origins to destination. Earlier, Beuthe et al. (2001) applied a similar approach on European transport data of traffics within and through Belgium. Given the high density of the Belgian network, a rather simple 'all-or-nothing' algorithm was applied, which assigned each origin-destination traffic to the least costly solution chosen among all available modes, means and routes solutions. It came out that aggregate own-cost elasticities in tonnage were of the same order of magnitude as some other studies available in the literature at that time: -0.59 for road, -1.77 for rail and -2.13 for waterways, but there was a wide dispersion of results among commodities. In the present paper, the data are much more spread all over Europe, since the research was concerned with all traffics that could potentially navigate on the river Rhine. Also, the zoning units of the demand matrixes are at a larger level over 1 Part of the 7 th Framework Program of EU Commission DG-MOVE, it analyzes the impacts of climate change on waterway},

abstract = {Traffic congestion is getting progressively worse in the United States and transportation agencies are looking for ways to alleviate congestion. Extensive research has determined the need for using active transportation and demand management (ATDM), as opposed to the traditional technique of responding to congestion and traffic changes after the incident has occurred. To fully implement this new congestion management concept, it is imperative to conduct a study featuring a comprehensive database review that would identify congestion factors as well as estimate the likelihood of congestion occurrence. This paper introduces a pilot study that includes an analysis identifying congestion contribution factors by examining several traffic data sources obtained in the Greater Philadelphia area. The objective of this paper is to identify congestion factors and to provide insights as well as to support the Metropolitan Planning Organization's (MPO) long term regional planning. Weekly speed data per month in the year of 2012 was analyzed. The study site of this paper, a segment of Interstate 95 (I-95), showed slightly higher recurrent congestion levels compared to national average values. For non-recurrent congestion factors, crash occurrences and holidays were two major elements in contributing total congestion. The congestion mitigation measures examined are consistent with the MPO's Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) and Transportation Operations Master Plan.},

abstract = {Public transport and cycling are often combined in one trip. However, this combination has not attracted much attention in research. Existing research has found several (hard) factors that may explain the combined use of public transport and bicycle: accessibility of the station, distance to the station, bicycle facilities at stations. Despite the fact that the effect of attitudes towards mode choice is widely acknowledged, the authors are not aware of any study that analyses this effect on the joint use of bicycle and public transport. This paper investigates the effect of attitudes on the decision to commute by public transport and bicycle. The results indicate that public transport-bicycle commuters differ significantly from the three other groups of travellers (car commuters, public transport commuters {\&} bicycle commuters). Nevertheless, public transport-bicycle commuters share similarities with public transport commuters (who don't cycle to/from the station) and bicycle commuters. Public transport commuters have a more positive attitude towards car commuting and a less favourable attitude towards cycling. Bicycle commuters are more positive towards cycling and less towards public transport use than public transport-bicycle commuters. Moreover on the attitudinal characteristic level public transport-bicycle commuters share most beliefs about public transport with commuters who travel by public transport alone and their beliefs about cycling with bicycle commuters with both bicycle commuters and public transport commuters, but differ on several characteristics. Between the groups are nevertheless significant differences, which indicate that commuters who use train and bicycle together in one trip are different from single mode commuters.},

Multi-class traffic assignment has been widely considered as a theoretically sound approach to capture the inherent variation in users' route choice behavior. However, few empirical studies have been devoted to showing the effectiveness of this approach in improving the accuracy of the underlying passenger flow estimation process. In this research, a passenger classification scheme is proposed on the basis of a dataset from a large stated preference survey conducted in the City of Beijing, China. Separate generalized cost functions are calibrated for different classes of subway users in Beijing and applied in a multi-class transit assignment model for estimating passenger flows over a subway network. The case study has shown that the proposed multi-class approach resulted in significantly improved estimation results with an average estimation error of less than 15{\%} on the transfer flows as compared to 30{\%} for the single class model.},

abstract = {In this paper, a comprehensive multi-modal choice model is extended with trip contexts. The model is estimated from a series of stated choice experiments in which respondents choose between (multi-modal) mode alternatives which were nested under a second design that varied trips contexts. Choice alternatives and trip distances were varied across the experiments and involved bicycle, car, public transport and park-and-ride travel options depending on trip distance. The context variables involved weather conditions, travel party, amount of baggage, arrival time flexibility, time of day and trip purpose. A sample of 2,746 individuals participated in the experiments. 62 effects of the context variables on mode constants and route and mode attributes were found to be statistically significant. Although most results were in expected directions, some results were unexpected but provide interesting new insights. This especially applies to findings for the contexts arrival time flexibility and baggage which suggest that if no constraints apply in a trip, travelers are less averse to making a transfer and they respond more strongly to differences in travel times and (none-car related) costs and consequently they are more inclined to switch to a mode that performs better in these respects. Examples of other findings are that travelers become more sensitive to various travel time components when they are traveling with a child and that in good weather conditions travelers are less sensitive to travel time by car but are more sensitive to public-transport time components.},

A 400 square kilometer network southwest of the Baltimore metro area is used for the driving simulator based analysis with over 100 participants. The results illustrate that the cognitive loads experienced while driving, past exposure to DMS, DMS information reliability, personal perceptions, and past experience are important determinants of driver response behavior in the real-world. Also, in addition to travel time, inertia and anchoring effects can significantly influence choice decisions. The study also illustrates that the decisions revealed in the simulator experiments at the individual level can diverge significantly from those stated in the SP questionnaire, highlighting the need to go beyond stated intent to analyze the effectiveness of information-based guidance strategies.},

TOD consists in creating vibrant, compact, mixed use and walkable communities around transit stations, while articulating urban densities around the transit system. This paper presents a pilot study designed to carry out a walkability analysis of urban development at a detailed level within the immediate walking “catchment area” of a sample of stations along Nanchang metro Line 2 (scheduled to be opened by 2018). The analysis focuses on quantitative metrics relating to land use density, block size, road network density, and traffic signal cycle length. A pedestrian survey was also carried out to support the analysis from the users' point of view on the quality of walking conditions in these areas. The results show that higher density and quality of development, a more pedestrian friendly circulation system, and other complementary facilities near metro stations will likely be essential to the future success of these systems. Potential improvements can be inferred through comparison of the quantitative metrics between Nanchang and other cities around the world. Field survey shows that new solutions (whether new pathways, bridges, or underpasses) would enlarge the walking catchment area at several stations. Meanwhile, the small pilot pedestrian survey qualitative results indicate that pedestrians place a high priority on safety and security conditions around stations. The results have been presented to officials in Nanchang as part of a World Bank project preparation process there, and next steps are being discussed.},

For that reason, transportation policy should ensure that freight is moved as efficiently as 51 possible, as hampering the flow of cargo is bound to have a negative effect on the economy. If the arrival of 52 freight shipments is delayed or unreliable, the economy will accrue economic losses on account of loss sales, 53 customers that cannot get the products they need on time, reductions in the output of businesses that use the 54 cargo as an input, and increased inventories to account for unreliability. At the same time, it is important to 55 minimize the negative impacts produced by freight traffic. The transportation of the cargo required for 56 modern life generates a large freight vehicle-traffic that, in turn, produces congestion, pollution, noise, 57 infrastructure damage, and deterioration of quality of life. The goal of public policy must be to maximize the 58 net social benefits of the activity, by maximizing the benefits of the freight flows while minimizing the 59 negative externalities of the freight vehicle traffic. 60},

The DEADAALG algorithm is proved to be exact, i.e., either detects an 5 unavoidable deadlock resulting from the input data or provide a train scheduling thanks to the scheduling algorithm, 6 called SIMTRAS, which is free of deadlocks. Moreover, we show that the SIMTRAS algorithm is a polynomial 7 time algorithm with an O(|S|.|T| 2 log |T|) time complexity, where T is the set of trains and S is the set of sections in 8 the railway topology.

abstract = {1 Congestion is a challenge that commuters have to deal with on a daily basis. Consequently, 2 predicting the future status of a roadway is valuable for travelers in making better travel 3 decisions. The deployment of stationary sensors and the proliferation of mobile vehicle probes 4 provide researchers with a wealth of historical and real-time data that can be used for the 5 automatic prediction of congestion along freeway segments. In this paper we introduce a new 6 algorithm for the automatic prediction of congestion using Adaptive Boosting machine learning 7 classifiers. The proposed algorithm creates the learning dataset by identifying congested sections 8 using a skewed distribution mixture model of speed data to create a binary congestion matrix. 9 The elements of this binary matrix are then used as responses in the training of the classifiers. 10 The predictors for the classifier during the training phase are windows (slots) of the historical 11 spatiotemporal speed matrix. In the real-time running phase, the classifiers use the most recent 12 spatiotemporal speed matrix window to predict the short-and medium-term (up to 100 minutes 13 into the future) status of the roadway. Experimental results using archived data from a 22-mile 14 section of the northbound Interstate 5 (I-5) corridor in the Portland, Oregon, metropolitan region 15 demonstrates promising high true positive and low false positive rates. Specifically, using a 16 relatively large number of weak learners (between 20 and 30 learners) the achieved true positive 17 prediction rate is slightly greater than 0.99 and the false positive rate is less than 0.0001.},

The paper focuses on the effect of platoon dispersion on the proportion of 4 time blocked, the conflicting flow rate, and the capacity flow rate for the major street left turn 5 movement at a TWSC intersection. The existing HCM 2010 methodology shows little effect on 6 conflicting flow or capacity for various distances downstream from the signalized intersection. 7 Two methods are suggested for computing the conflicting flow and capacity of minor stream 8 movements at the TWSC intersection that have more desirable properties than the existing HCM 9 method.

abstract = {Workplaces are facing the challenge of sustainable auditing and reducing land dedicated to car parking. Personalised travel plans (PTPs) enable employees to evaluate the full range of alternatives to the car for their journey to work. However, the uptake and effectiveness of such a service may be strongly influenced by the social and organisational context of individual workplaces. This paper draws out findings on the importance of social context from a case-study of user involvement in the development of an innovative, web-based tool to generate PTPs ('myPTP'). Interviews were held with the innovators, with travel coordinators and with users of the tool in three pilot organisations. Travel coordinators saw the PTP tool from the perspective of a corporate strategy to reduce CO 2 emissions -in some cases as a 'carrot' to balance the 'stick' of higher parking charges. Among some employees, this made it a focal point for dissatisfaction with employers' wider transport measures. However, staff involved in change management saw it as an effective way of informing employees, often promoting its diffusion within workplace practice. The findings offer a number of good practice points to designers of innovative transport tools, and organisations interested in taking them up.},

abstract = {This study presents a web-based air quality evaluation framework that enables the analysis of changes in local emissions and the corresponding predicted impacts on public health. The framework includes emission models, air dispersion models, and a health impact analysis methodology based on the comprehensive air quality index suggested by the Ministry of Environment in South Korea. The primary feature of this framework is its flexibility and its ability to distinguish between macroscopic and microscopic standpoints, depending on the goal of the analysis. In general, emissions can be estimated from nationwide data provided by the National Clean Air Policy Support System or by integrated traffic simulation and emission models to calculate the amount of pollutants emitted from traffic. Air dispersion can be estimated by examining specific dispersion models in accordance with the goal of the analysis. In addition, public health impacts can be predicted in relation to emissions concentration using the air quality index. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed framework using a case study examining alternative traffic operational strategies. As a result, the framework can be used for scientific evaluation and analysis of urban traffic planning, traffic management policies, and public agencies' decision-making support for city center redevelopment.},

abstract = {The Highway Capacity Manual provides a means for evaluating level of service on freeways, highways, and urban streets. Presently, the Highway Capacity Manual methodology is not able to evaluate level of service on freeways with free-flow speeds greater than 75 mi/h or multilane highways with free-flow speeds greater than 60 mi/h; and, since the repeal of the national maximum speed limit, many states now have facilities with posted speed limits that exceed these free-flow speeds. Recent research, conducted by the Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute (TTI), 8 developed speed prediction equations for uninterrupted flow facilities with higher posted speed limits. From these equations, this paper develops procedures for calculating free-flow speed on facilities with higher posted speed limits and develops methods for estimating level of service on freeways with free-flow speeds up to 85 mi/h and multilane highways with free-flow speeds up to 80 mi/h. For freeways, the authors recommend utilizing the TTI speed prediction equations to calculate free-flow speed, and using the calculated free-flow speeds to determine level of service from speed-flow curves developed within this paper. For multilane highways, the authors recommend utilizing the TTI speed prediction equations to calculate base free-flow speed 16 (BFFS), which is part of the equation for calculating free-flow speed; and then using the calculated free-flow speed to determine level of service from speed-flow curves developed within this paper. To aid practitioners, the authors provide step-by-step procedures for applying the TTI speed prediction equations within the Highway Capacity Manual methodology.},

How-ever, a state description in only a few parameters also gives advantages for setting up a dynamic traffic simulation program. This paper uses this advantage and proposes the Network Transmission Model, a dynamic simulation program based on the NFD. The network is split up into subnetworks (cells), for all of which an NFD is defined. Based on the accumulation, the flows between the cells are determined.

A detailed literature review shows that strong empirical 3 understanding of the weaving mechanisms is still lacking. The goal is to investigate the lane changing 4 behavior at a microscopic level. Data collection distinguished lane changes from the main road and those 5 towards the main road. Descriptive empirical analysis examines the positions of the lane changes and the 6 corresponding accepted gaps. Results show that under heavy congested traffic conditions the weaving 7 vehicles tend to change lane as soon as possible after the start of the weaving section. When the traffic 8 conditions are fluid, the weaving vehicles coming from the main road tend to change lane earlier than the 9 weaving vehicles coming from the auxiliary lane. Moreover, weaving vehicles coming from the auxiliary 10 lane accept smaller gaps and headways than the weaving vehicles coming from the main road. Our 11 findings are questioning some results of previous works using micro-simulation to study weaving sections. 12 As the weaving vehicles change lane at the beginning of the studied weaving section, our findings ask 13 whether the length of the weaving section is a key variable to estimate its capacity. Our findings raise also 14 some questions about the relevance of the gap acceptance theory to model lane changes at weaving 15 sections. But further research are needed to asses these hypothesis.},

Easy access to this information provides 2 the potential to alleviate traffic congestion and to increase the reliability in road networks. However, 3 it is still a challenging task to model and estimate travel time, as traffic often reveals irregular 4 fluctuations. Traditional point prediction methods often underestimate the irregular fluctuations and 5 provide results that are prone to be uncertain. To capture travel time fluctuations and uncertainties 6 associated with prediction, this paper proposes the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average-7 Stochastic Volatility (ARIMA-SV) model that generates the expected value of travel time (a point 8 value) as well as a prediction interval. An advanced Monte Carlo Markov Chain estimation method is 9 employed to fit the stochastic volatility model. The experiment results based on travel time data 10 collected from Bluetooth detectors along an I-95 segment in Connecticut suggest that the proposed 11 ARIMA-SV model out performs the ARIMA-GARCH model in both congested and non-congested 12 situations. The proposed method has shown its advantages in capturing traffic fluctuations and has the 13 potential to disseminate more reliable traffic information to travelers through Advanced Traveler},

abstract = {37 38 39 The ability to passively track large numbers of mobile devices has generated a lot of excitement in recent 40 years. Traditional travel surveys without GPS tracking, either wholly or in part, seems pass{\'{e}} today. 41 However, Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) tracking can only overcome some of the problems 42 associated with travel diary surveys. It can capture missed trips and route choice information, but at 43 increased cost per survey. However, it does nothing to ease the rising cost and difficulty associated with 44 contacting, recruiting, retaining households in the first place, or collecting and processing the data. 45 Passive tracking overcomes these limitations, at the expense of giving up interaction with the device 46 owner. Thus, information about the traveler, trip purpose, and other details must be inferred or lost. 47 48 The ideal solution is to use both travel diaries and passive tracking together. While techniques for fusing 49 these data are yet to be proven the concept has strong intuitive appeal. Until such techniques emerge the 50 question becomes whether such data can be used on their own, and whether they resemble the output of 51 travel models built using traditional survey data. The opportunity to answer such questions arose recently 52 in the Research Triangle Region of North Carolina, which served as a pilot project for using origin-53 destination data from AirSage as an adjunct to modeling. A detailed analysis of the differences between 54 the AirSage data and the Triangle Regional Model (TRM) has been completed. The differences were 55 subtle in some cases and surprising in others. 56 57 This paper reports on the findings of this comparison. A brief description of the AirSage data and TRM 58 provides the context for the discussion. Presented in this paper is the methodology for comparing the two 59 data sources along with the results. The results show that the highway assignment using AirSage data is 60 comparable to the highway assignment using model estimated trip tables, supporting the use of passively 61 collected cellular data as a low cost option for travel model validation.},

Due to the unstable economic environment that leads to rapid changes of mobility demand and thanks to the massive amount of real-time data being generated by Smartphones and other ICT devices, complementary models are starting to be considered as potential enablers for a finer and more adaptive travel demand forecasting. In this paper the added value from using user-generated content through social media for mobility demand prediction is examined. A disaggregate model for mobility demand prediction is intro-duced by linking the mobility decisions of individuals with their activity patterns as they derived by publicly available, user-generated content including geo-tagged information about the location of users. A method for the estimation of individuals activity patterns and another method for classi-fying individuals into different groups through clustering are also provided. These functions work together to form a mobility prediction model which is tested using data from social media, and its quantization error is presented in two test scenarios. The paper concludes with a remark that social media can be used as a stand-alone or a surrogate source of information for the development of new generation mobility demand prediction models.},

As incident-induced changes in traffic conditions vary under different 6 pre-incident traffic flow and rain conditions, consideration of pre-incident traffic flow and the 7 condition of rain can contribute to improvements in the overall performance of AID 8 algorithms. The discrete detection thresholds adopted by previous flow-based AID algorithms 9 have a boundary value jump problem. In the proposed algorithm, a detection threshold 10 function is adopted to generalize the relationship between the threshold and the pre-incident 11 traffic flow. The detection threshold under any specific pre-incident traffic flow values can be 12 obtained by the generalized detection threshold function. Traffic data, accident data and 13 rainfall data were collected on a selected road network in Hong Kong to calibrate and 14 validate the proposed algorithm. The proposed algorithm is then deformed into several 15 algorithms, in which either one, or both of the pre-incident traffic flow and rain conditions 16 are excluded in detection threshold determination. The proposed algorithm was found to 17 perform better than these deformed algorithms.

abstract = {Prioritization of networkwide bicycle investments is data limited in the United States. The framework proposed in this paper addresses the temporal factoring of sparse bicycle counts through Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling and introduces a novel spatial factoring method to expand estimates of bicycle usage to all network edges. Bicycle usage varies widely on the basis of weather, infrastructure, trip origin and destination, and cultural expectations, and this variability necessitates more-detailed volume models than those that suffice for automobile use. A multilevel temporal model that includes hourly, weather-related, and commute-day factors maximizes the information obtained from sparse count observations. Spatial factoring then extends these data to cover unobserved streets through Bayesian updating of prior estimates from a regional travel demand model informed by an edge correlation matrix. For a small city in the United States with some manual vol-unteer bicycle counts and no permanent counting infrastructure, the proposed framework was able to estimate an edge-specific bicycle usage networkwide reasonably and, unlike typical factoring methods, as dis-tributions rather than single values. This rigorous characterization of parameter variance allows planners and software to interpret results appropriately and to avoid the common misconception that all model outputs are equally valid. The framework is globally applicable because it is based on open-source tools and data and will be used in the upcoming long-range plan for the study region. By providing comprehensive safety exposure data, the framework enables networkwide safety prioritization with empirical Bayes methods to allocate scarce funds.},

The proposed algorithm uses dynamic programming to compute the 4 minimum-fuel vehicle trajectory required to navigate through the intersection subject to several 5 constraints, including: vehicular interactions, traffic signal timing changes and vehicle/roadway 6 constraints. The proposed application uses infrastructure-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle 7 communication to receive traffic signal and vehicle data.

The simulation model uses a variety of microscopic inputs 10 such as the roadway vertical profile, roadway surface condition, traffic volumes, and traffic 11 signal timing information. The system was tested on a sample signalized intersection producing 12 fuel consumption reductions of 30 percent and travel speed increases of 200 percent on average 13 within the vicinity of the intersection.

abstract = {For enhanced efficiency and sustainability, transportation must rely on new technologies. Researchers and engineers work nowadays on many valuable and green transportation ideas. One such idea creates vehicle platoons on freeways to achieve multiple benefits: reductions in gas consumption, vehicle emissions, and traffic congestion through enhanced aerodynamics and road space utilization, as well as improvements in safety and driver comfort through fail-safe mechanisms and moderation of collision damages given similar vehicle speed. The technological enhancements are built into the vehicles. The existing freeway infrastructures do not necessitate modification. Still, the interactions between the human factors, or lack thereof, and the new technologies may directly impact the traditional guidelines for freeway design. Over time, the dedicated freeways of the future, whether rehabilitated or built anew, could satisfy guidelines derived specifically for road-trains. Further, freeways built to current guidelines may accommodate travel speeds higher than those originally anticipated per design. It remains to understand (1) why existing freeway lanes can accommodate road-trains, (2) whether design guidelines for road-trains are significantly different from current guidelines, and (3) whether road-train operation results in significant a posteriori design speed increases. This article seeks to answer these very questions. The investigation of a continuum of transitory to end state scenarios concluded that road-trains promote both shorter required and longer available sight distances, thereby promoting the adequacy of existing freeways. It is shown that road-trains reduce minimum length requirements and increase a posteriori design speeds for all curves. Changes are less drastic for horizontal than vertical curves.},

This article first compares trends of CO 2 emissions from passenger transport in 29 Germany and the USA since 1990. Germany reduced CO 2 emissions from passenger transport at 30 a faster rate than the USA—even controlling for population growth, economic activity, and 31 travel demand. Moreover, for all indicators CO 2 emissions from transport were much higher in 32 the USA than in Germany: 11.7 times greater for total CO 2 emissions, 3.1 times per capita, 2.1 33 times per passenger kilometer, and 2.4 times per unit of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Next 34 the paper compares US and German policies that can help decrease CO 2 emissions from 35 passenger transport through improvements in technology including fuel economy and CO 2 36 tailpipe emission standards, vehicle registration fees and taxes, incentive programs for the 37 purchase of fuel efficient cars, and biofuel standards. Lastly, the paper briefly highlights policies 38 in Germany and the USA that shape the relative attractiveness of driving, public transport, 39 walking, and cycling. The analysis concludes with policy lessons for both countries.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; According to national statistics 87{\%} of all trips in the US are by automobile and 90{\%} of commuters drive to work in a car. For many transportation planners these statistics suggest that only a small minority of Americans walk, cycle, or ride public transportation. However, statistics for individual trips or the main mode of commuting to work do not capture variability in individual travel behavior over time. This paper uses the 2001 and 2009 National Household Travel Surveys to analyze multimodal individual travel behavior, defined as the use of more than one mode of transportation over time. The paper focuses on multimodality during a week, but also highlights multimodal travel behavior during a travel day and a tour. The goals of this paper are to provide an overview of the recent multimodality literature, identify trends of multimodality in the US, and provide demographic and socio-economic profiles of multimodal Americans. The authors find that during a typical week about two thirds of American drivers make at least one trip by foot, bicycle, or public transportation. About 7{\%} of Americans do not drive at all during a typical week and exclusively rely on alternatives to the car. The analysis is first to provide trends of multimodality and profiles of multimodal individuals at the national level for the US. Results demonstrate the need for better weekly data and that planning for walking, cycling, and public transportation directly benefits over 70{\%} of the US population.},

The location tracking data is typically useful for travel 3 survey and transportation planning. Several earlier studies employed smartphone-based travel 4 survey methods. However, sampling targets were limited. This paper describes a smartphone-5 based travel survey that targeted a large-scale population. Smartphone apps were developed 6 for both Android and iPhone platforms. Letters inviting individuals to participate in a 7 supplemental survey related to a large-scale household travel survey were mailed to 13,279 8 households in Kumamoto, Japan. Ultimately, 97 participants participated in a smartphone-9 based survey that offered zero incentives. Previous smartphone-based travel surveys did offer 10 incentives. In contrast, the 97 participants who agreed to participate despite zero incentives 11 were recruited by the use of randomly distributed mail-out invitation letters. An examination 12 of the results revealed that participants' pure tendencies during their participation in the 13 survey remained free of incentive bias. In addition, the results indicated that males were more 14 likely to participate in the survey than females. Participants in their 20s were more likely to 15 participate in the survey although they frequently failed to complete it. Individuals employed 16 in manufacturing, energy, medical and public-related service occupations demonstrated higher 17 participation rates. Smartphone-based survey participants' average trip rates were statistically 18 higher than the average trip rates of traditional household travel survey participants. These 19 findings can be used to develop similar smartphone-based travel surveys in the future.},

It is understood that the downstream bottleneck breakdown/failure is depen-4 dent on the upstream mainline flow and the flow oncoming from the on-ramps. This 5 is a critically important research problem as the upstream demand uncertainty and 6 flow pattern dependency impacts the throughputs at the downstream bottleneck. This 7 research is largely motivated by the necessity to better understand the downstream 8 bottleneck breakdown mechanism given multiple joint input flows through on-ramps 9 and the freeway mainline flow. Therefore, the dependency structure between the differ-10 ent on-ramp flows or dependency between freeway mainline is essential to understand 11 how the multiple upstream entrance-flows can jointly contribute to the downstream 12 flow breakdown. The dependency among multiple on-ramps acts in a somewhat non-13 tractable but random fashion. In this paper, a copula-based bottleneck breakdown risk 14 model is developed. The copula modelling framework is capable to capture the random 15 flow dependency and the downstream bottleneck breakdown risk. For example, when 16 the upstream flow is significant, downstream breakdown tends to form. One of the 17 benefits of this modelling framework is to provide an alternative to calculate the down-18 stream bottleneck breakdown probability on freeway mainline. A monte carlo-based 19 bottleneck breakdown risk model is developed to evaluate the how demand uncertainty 20 and dependency structure among multiple on-ramp flows impacts downstream bottle-21 neck breakdown risk.

abstract = {5 This study presents the applicability of Na{\"{i}} ve Bayes classifier ensemble for traffic incident 6 detection. The standard Naive Bayes (NB) has been applied on traffic incident detection and 7 achieved good results. However, the detection result of the practically implemented NB depends 8 on the choosing of the optimal threshold, which is determined mathematically by using Bayesian 9 concepts in the incident-detection process. To avoid the burden of choosing the optimal threshold 10 and tuning the parameters, furthermore, to improve the limited classification performance of the 11 NB, and enhance the detection performance, we propose to NB classifier ensemble to detection 12 incident. NB classifier ensemble algorithm trains many individual NB classifiers to construct the 13 classifier ensemble, then uses this classifier ensemble to detect the traffic incidents. Consequently, 14 it needs to train many times. In addition, we also propose to combine Na{\"{i}} ve Bayes and decision 15 tree (NBTree) to detect incident. Different from NB, NBTree is a hybrid approach that attempts to 16 utilize the advantage of both decision trees and na{\"{i}} ve Bayesian classifier. Compared with NB 17 ensemble algorithm, the training time cost of NBTree is much lower, which is because of NBTree 18 only need train one time. In this paper, extensive experiments have been performed to evaluate the 19 performances of three algorithms: standard NB, NB ensemble, NBTree. The experimental results 20 show that the performances of five rules of NB classifier ensemble are significantly better than 21 standard NB and slightly better than NBTree in some indicators.

abstract = {18 19 A contraflow facility in which the direction of traffic on one or more travel lanes is reversed to increase 20 the outbound capacity is a major component of hurricane evacuation plans of many coastal states. 21 Contraflow facilities are typically implemented when significant evacuation demand is expected, for 22 example during a severe hurricane. Typical contraflow plans have one upstream crossover routing 23 vehicles into the contraflow lanes and one downstream crossover routing vehicles back into the regular 24 lanes. This paper addresses the following question: how to best utilize the contraflow facilities in order to 25 optimize evacuation performance? The mobility impact of additional intermediate crossovers between the 26 beginning and termination of contraflow was investigated. The iterative elimination heuristic algorithm 27 proposed in this paper is the first attempt in the literature to provide a systematic approach to determine 28 the critical intermediate crossover locations that provide the maximum improvement in evacuation 29 performance. 30 Based on the investigation of a case study of I-64 in Hampton Roads, Virginia, it was found that 31 adding intermediate crossovers improved network performance for medium and high evacuation demand 32 situations. Adding intermediate crossovers for low demand situations did not improve the network 33 performance and thus any considerations for intermediate crossovers for the low demand evacuations 34 must be based solely on providing access to road-side services such as gas, food, and emergency services. 35 For medium and high demand situations, a 28{\%} improvement in the average travel time was obtained by 36 deploying four intermediate crossovers out of the 44 potential crossover locations in the I-64 corridor. 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50},

abstract = {1 2 Congestion is a significant cost to society, amounting to somewhere between 1 and 2{\%} of GDP 3 according to an EU-wide survey. Accordingly, in 2000 the UK government enacted legislation that 4 enabled local authorities to introduce new policy instruments to address this -a Road User Charge 5 and/or a Workplace Parking Levy (WPL). Interestingly however, to date only one local authority, 6 Nottingham City Council, has decided to introduce a WPL. The WPL in Nottingham is a charge 7 placed on employers in the city with 11 or more employee parking spaces with all the revenue 8 hypothecated for local transport improvements. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of a 9 post-implementation study of the Nottingham WPL. Specifically it seeks to understand the reasons 10 why and the factors that allowed Nottingham to introduce a WPL. It aims to highlight the issues, the 11 short term and anticipated long term impact, as well as the likelihood of a WPL being implemented by 12 other authorities in the UK. It achieves this through a document review and thirty semi-structured 13 interviews with key stakeholders. It was found that although for some the cost of the levy is not 14 sufficient enough to deter car use and/or the alternatives are not adequate, it is expected that some 15 people will change travel behaviour over the life of the scheme. Thus such schemes can have a 16 positive impact on congestion and are able to deliver many wider benefits if integrated as part of a 17 long term strategy. 18 19},

This article aims to understand these factors at the aggregate level and to anticipate future total absence that will need to be filled for a large-size transit operator. The aggregate level is defined as the total number of regular driver absences per garage, day of week and time period that need to be covered by the extraboards. This study analyzes absenteeism data obtained from OC Transpo, the transit provider of the city of Ottawa, Canada. A multilevel regression model is generated to investigate regular drivers' absences. The short-unscheduled absence is estimated in relation to temporal factors, drivers' personal characteristics, aspects of assigned work, and service delivery characteristics. Furthermore, using the model's coefficients, sensitivity analyses are conducted to demonstrate the advantages of this technique over traditional ones adopted by various transit agencies. This study provides transit planners and policy makers with a practical methodology that can be used to support extraboard planning practice and help reduce the incidence of missed trips due to absences while having the appropriate size of extraboard drivers. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

The Federal Transit 3 Administration (FTA) selected the CTA as one of seven FTA-funded climate adaptation pilots, which are intended 4 to assess the vulnerability of transit agency assets and operations to prolonged heat and intense precipitation, and to 5 develop initial adaptation strategies consistent with agency operating environments. 6 7 This study focuses on detailed adaptation strategies developed for three CTA system areas: right-of-way flooding, 8 rail heat kinks, and signal house overheating. A life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) was applied to each of the three 9 issues to compare infrastructure investment costs (i.e. build scenarios) against the costs of no action (i.e. no-build 10 scenarios). In addition, a series of model runs was conducted for each of the three areas to determine the range of 11 outputs relative to various input assumptions, such as event frequency, capital costs, and passenger value of time. 12 The LCCA model was developed to investigate system case studies and provide flexibility for future modification. 13 14 The study builds upon existing research on projected climate change impacts under the Chicago Climate Action 15 Plan. CTA intends to use this study to inform CTA capital and operating decisions and to offer best practices for 16 regional, national, and international agencies. Crucially, adaptation measures will allow CTA and peer transit 17 agencies to sustain transit ridership, and thus reduce emissions to help create a more stable climate throughout the 18 21 st century.},

Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the determinants of mode choice and their effects over time is important. This study sought to understand how accessibility to employment by public transit changes over time, and how this accessibility explains changes in transit use. With the use of linear regression analysis, the authors explored the influence of job accessibility, transport infrastructure, and social disadvantage on transit mode share for three job categories in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in 2 years, 1996 and 2006. New transit infrastructure did not necessarily attract more transit commuters but was found to affect commuting to different job categories differently. ALso, new highway infrastructure hampered transit mode share, regardless of job type. The aggregate all-jobs model was found to dilute some differences between the transit mode choices of people commuting to different job categories. Finally, Increases in accessibility by transit were found to augment transit mode share, while people in more socially disadvantaged areas were more likely to commute by transit in any job category. This study reveals findings that may be of interest to land use and transportation planners working toward boosting regional transit ridership, while aLso attaining social equity goals.},

Zhu et al. 2 1 Abstract 2 The need for activity based models to provide micro, disaggregate simulations of travel patterns 3 have become increasingly important to understand the complexity involved with travel behavior. 4 Traveler occupation is one of the factors that are determinative of a trip end. To fully model how 5 travel behavior will be influenced in the future, it is imperative to be able to estimate future 6 occupation. The current literature does not provide suitable methods to model and forecast 7 occupation. Two methods have primarily been used in the past to model occupation; the cohort-8 component method or a population synthesizing approach. The cohort-component method 9 requires a significant amount of detailed birth, aging, death and migration information and the 10 results obtained are at an aggregate geographic level. Such data at larger geographies (macro 11 level) may not be suitable for advanced travel demand modeling purposes. Occupation 12 synthesizers are used to obtain individual information at any geographic level (micro-level), but 13 suffer from a limitation of evolution of occupation over time while considering other depend 14 variables such as employment, and other household characteristics. 15 In this paper, the authors propose a mesoscopic approach where occupation by 16 employment type evolves over a time period using a logistic regression technique. Five types of 17 occupation: management, sales, service, other and unemployed is modeled. The methodology is 18 presented in three steps: coefficient estimation, forecast and validation. First, the occupation 19 evolution trend from 1990 to 2000 is analyzed. The estimation result is applied to forecast 2010 20 and 2030 occupation composition. This evolutionary model is applied to the Baltimore 21 Metropolitan Council (BMC) region based on 1990 and 2000 Census data then validated with 22 2010 Census data. The results show that the proposed model produces a forecast that reliable and 23 accurate. The important insights gained from this study are: (1) this model provides a good 24 estimation and forecast for management, sales and unemployment; (2) service and other 25 occupation prove less predictable as evolution trends among these groups are not consistent over 26 time. The proposed tool can be adapted for use by small and large scale planning agencies to 27 prepare detailed socio-economic and demographic profiles for input data into a population 28 synthesizer or activity based model. 29 30},

abstract = {1 Landing overrun accidents have become a major concern over recent decades regarding airline 2 and airport safety. This paper is aimed to study aircraft landing and build a mechanistic-3 empirical aircraft landing distance prediction method, which will help airport operators and 4 airlines mitigate the risk of runway overrun. The landing distance prediction method established 5 in this paper incorporates a mechanistic-based analysis and an empirical real data calibration. 6 The method includes two portions: deceleration equations and the landing distance model. 7 Deceleration equations are built according to force and moment analysis and calibrated based on 8 digital flight data and weather data. Then, based on the deceleration equations, a landing distance 9 model is established. When building the landing distance model, the following characteristics are 10 considered: pilot settings (TLA, spoiler position, and flap position configurations), aircraft 11 operational characteristics (touchdown speed and weight), the runway friction condition, and 12 aircraft braking system characteristics. A Boeing 737-700 real data case study is done and a 13 comparison is made with the Boeing 737 Quick Reference Handbook reference landing distance. 14 The results indicate the model offers an accurate prediction of aircraft landing distance. In 15 addition, this mechanistic-empirical method has several advantages over previous methods and 16 has the potential opportunity for routine airline safety management to enhance safety. 17 18},

Computation time, however, has hindered the use of this tool in situations 3 including continuous variables such as traffic signal settings, optimal speed, or toll fares. This study 4 reviewed the most recent literature that focused on expensive multi-objective optimization of black-box 5 processes and selected two promising candidates, PAL and SMS-EGO. Both these algorithms rely on 6 previously acquired knowledge to generate Gaussian process models that can be evaluated at a lesser cost 7 than the actual simulation. The two algorithms, differing by the assumptions and optimization processes 8 used, were then compared with NSGA-II, a genetic algorithm that has been frequently applied over the 9 last decade for multi-objective optimization of transportation networks. The case-study consisted in 10 optimizing traffic signals for three different designs of the same arterial, including a bus-lane and Transit 11 Signal Priority (TSP). The performances were evaluated in terms of quality of the Pareto front 12 approximation, number of evaluations, and computation time. With regard to these three parameters, 13 SMS-EGO was found to outperform both NSGA-II and PAL in all the three configurations, while PAL 14 outperformed NSGA-II in two of the configurations and exhibited similar results for the third. 15 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Leisure activities are often conducted by individuals jointly with others implying that preferences for these activities are the result of a group interaction. In this study, a decision process is assumed where individuals involved do proposals for options and respond to proposals done by others. When preferences are conflicting individuals must trade-off between self-interest and the interests of others. A central hypothesis in this study is that fairness considerations play a significant role. To estimate a social utility function, individuals are presented choice tasks where they do proposals or respond to proposals in situations where preferences for options in the group are manipulated by an experimental design. A representative sample (N = 315) of individuals participated in the experiment. Estimation results of a discrete mixture model show that, in line with the hypothesis, fairness indeed plays a significant role. Individuals display a preference for options where losses or gains are more equally distributed in the group even when this comes at the costs of personal or group outcomes. Interestingly, the social utility function is asymmetric; compromise solutions are favored more strongly when consequences relate to costs (travel costs) than when they concern rewards (positive preferences). Furthermore, there are significant personal differences in how people make the trade-offs influenced by gender and age. It is concluded that the model proposed in this study offers new insights in joint activity choice behavior as well as a more flexible framework to model the behavior compared to existing models that assumed an aggregated group utility function.},

abstract = {1 2 Dynamic route planning is a promising way to improve the quality of route planners in navigation 3 systems based on real-time traffic data. Real-time traffic data offer information for predicting 4 fluctuations and changes in traffic speeds on links of a road network which routing algorithms can take 5 into account. The goal of this study is to introduce and test a system of incremental learning of link 6 speed profiles based on real-time traffic data. In the proposed system, day-by-day fluctuation in traffic 7 conditions on a link is represented by a discrete distribution of speed profiles. Learning the distribution 8 is formulated as a dynamic version of the K-means clustering problem. Based on a dynamic K-means 9 algorithm the system learns the discrete distribution (K means) incrementally and continuously. 10 Furthermore, in the short term, the system continuously updates its current belief of the actual 11 realization of the link's speed profile based on continuous speed measurements from a sensor. The 12 system is tested based on numerical experiments where sensor data are simulated. The results indicate 13 that, in the long-term, the system effectively learns assumed distributions of speed profiles and, in the 14 short term, adequately responds to real-time traffic information to improve short-term traffic speed 15 prediction. Therefore, it is concluded that the system offers a promising way to implement dynamic 16 routing in current route planners for navigation systems. 17 18},

A key issue in the design of participation methods is whether and how the location of public comments are included. This study critically assesses existing literature, including the foundations of public involvement and the latest requirements. A rural transportation planning process is evaluated in terms of the geographic specificity of comments received from open-ended responses on a questionnaire and a facilitated mapping session, and reviews them for relevance to developing a rural transportation plan. Although all input received from the public can be valuable in the process, location-based comments may be more actionable by transportation planners. Qualitative methods are employed to evaluate spatial aspects of public input from a transportation plan in Central Texas, and relative benefits reviewed. This study demonstrates geographic specificity is a valuable concern in the design of public involvement for transportation planning, and offers several techniques for consideration.},

abstract = {Quantifying the fuel savings and emissions reductions that can be achieved from truck fuel efficiency technologies for a fleet's specific usage allows the fleet to select a combination of technologies that will yield the greatest operational efficiency and profitability. An accurate characterization of usage for the fleet is critical for such an evaluation; however, short-term measured drive cycle data do not generally reflect overall usage very effectively. This paper presents a detailed analysis of vehicle usage in a commercial vehicle fleet and demonstrates the development of a short-duration synthetic drive cycle with measured drive cycle data collected over an extended period of time. The approach matched statistical measures of the vehicle speed with acceleration history and integrated measured grade data to develop a compressed drive cycle that accurately represents total usage. Drive cycle measurements obtained during a full year from six tractor trailers in normal operations in a less-than-truckload carrier were analyzed to develop a synthetic drive cycle. The vehicle mass was also estimated to account for the variation of loads that the fleet experienced. These drive cycle and mass data were analyzed with a tractive energy analysis to quantify the benefits in terms of fuel efficiency and reduced carbon dioxide emissions that can be achieved on Class 8 tractor trailers by using advanced efficiency technologies, either individually or in combination. Although differences exist between Class 8 tractor trailer fleets, this study provides valuable insight into the energy and emissions reduction potential that various technologies can bring in this important trucking application. The methodology employed for generating the synthetic drive cycle serves as a rigorous approach to develop an accurate usage characterization that can be used to effectively compress large quantities of drive cycle data.},

Using a stochastic frontier model applied to panel data obtained in a survey on electric vehicle usage in Japan, the remaining charge when mid-trip fast charging begins is treated as a dependent variable. This variable is significantly affected by user anxiety about charging opportunities, which differs by user and business type. The estimation results obtained using four models, for commercial and private vehicles, respectively, on working and non-working days, show that there are great opportunities to encourage more efficient charging behavior by alleviating anxiety. It appears that the stochastic frontier modeling method is an effective way to model the minimum charge at which fast-charging should be initiated, since it incorporates user characteristics into the estimation process to some extent.},

abstract = {Short-term prediction of passenger flow plays an important role in real-time bus dispatching. Such prediction is also useful in diagnosing bus operation problems, such as forecasting bus bunching. A novel framework is proposed in this paper to predict the passenger flow at bus stops. The framework consists of three sequential stages. In the first stage, a seasonal ARIMA-based method is used to predict the arrival passenger count and empty space on a bus when the bus reaches a bus stop. The historical passenger arrivals at the bus stop can be obtained from the corresponding boarding count data by an allocation approach. In the second stage, an event-based method is developed to predict the departure passenger counts from the stop. The proposed method iteratively forecasts the bus arrival events and consequently updates the passenger flow. In the third stage, a Kalman filter based method is proposed to predict the waiting passenger counts at the stop according to results from the first and second stages. The real-time observed waiting passenger count is used as the feedback of the filter to minimize the prediction error. Computational results based on the real bus line data for passenger flow prediction and its application in forecasting bunching confirm that the proposed framework and solution algorithm are effective in providing accurate and reliable passenger flow prediction.},

abstract = {Curbside parking is an important component of the parking system. Due to its occupancy of roadway resources and operational characteristics of parking maneuvers, it can significantly reduce the capacity of the adjacent travel lane. In order to analyze the capacity of bike lane influenced by curbside parking, this study is to give a quantitative analysis of the influence of curbside parking on the capacity. The volume-speed data of non-motorized vehicles moving in the road sections with curbside parking and segregated facilities between motorized and non-motorized vehicles are gathered by observers. A conflict technique theoretical framework based on additive conflict flow is proposed to establish the base capacity model. Then the actual capacity on the bike lane with curbside parking is defined as a result of basic capacity relate to various adjustment factors, including adjustment factor for the effective width, adjustment factor for the time influence of curbside parking, and electric bike adjustment factor. The results show that curbside parking has a significant impact on the capacity of bicycle lane. The capacity would have a decrease of approximately 47.10{\%} influenced by curbside parking. The results also show that the effective lane width shows a positive effect on the capacity, whereas the events of inbound and outbound parking maneuvers, the time influence and the percentage of e-bike show a negative effect on the capacity. The absolute error between the observed capacity and estimated capacity is only 4.56{\%}, and the model can be used to estimate the capacity under assumed conditions. It is hoped that this paper will help to improve the planning and management of curbside parking on bicycle lane.},

abstract = {The Bluetooth technology is being increasingly used, among the Automated Vehicle Identification Systems, to retrieve important information about urban networks. Because the movement of Bluetooth-equipped vehicles can be monitored, throughout the network of Bluetooth sensors, this technology represents an effective means to acquire accurate time dependant Origin Destination information. In order to obtain reliable estimations, however, a number of issues need to be addressed, through data filtering and correction techniques. Some of the main challenges inherent to Bluetooth data are, first, that Bluetooth sensors may fail to detect all of the nearby Bluetooth-enabled vehicles. As a consequence, the exact journey for some vehicles may become a latent pattern that will need to be estimated. Second, sensors that are in close proximity to each other may have overlapping detection areas, thus making the task of retrieving the correct travelled path even more challenging. The aim of this paper is twofold: to give an overview of the issues inherent to the Bluetooth technology, through the analysis of the data available from the Bluetooth sensors in Brisbane; and to propose a method for retrieving the itineraries of the individual Bluetooth vehicles. We argue that estimating these latent itineraries, accurately, is a crucial step toward the retrieval of accurate dynamic Origin Destination Matrices.},

Research into this trend is only recently emerging yet it is likely to have important impacts on 3 public transport and road planning. Very little is known about the attitudes of young adults toward cars and 4 driving and how these attitudes impact whether they choose to acquire a driving licence. This paper presents the 5 results of a survey of over 200 young adults in Melbourne, Australia. The survey explores the relationship 6 between car licensing and demographics, life stage, use of social media and attitudes as well as exploring 7 reasons why some young adults do not have a licence. Although most young adults see a car as providing 8 independence, they also see it as a big responsibility; they are much less likely to believe a car means someone 9 is 'doing well in life.'

The last time that cell phone use in Canada was observed, an estimated 3.6{\%} of drivers were 5 talking on cell phones in rural areas in 2009 and 3.3{\%} were using them in urban areas in 2010. Given that 6 most Canadian jurisdictions have passed legislation prohibiting the use of hand-held devices by drivers, 7 there is interest in whether there has been a change in the use of these devices. An observational survey 8 was conducted at 286 urban sites across Canada during September 2012. A total of 70,686 drivers of light 9 duty vehicles were observed while they were stopped at a traffic light or a stop sign. Whether they were 10 using an ECD was recorded as well as the type of usage (i.e., speaking, typing, both), driver age and 11 gender, number of passengers in the vehicle, and type of vehicle. The weighted national urban survey 12 results show that an estimated 4.6{\%} (± 0.5) of the drivers used an ECD, varying by jurisdiction from 1.3 13 to 7.0{\%}. ECD use was more frequent among young drivers ({\textless}25 years of age), drivers of light trucks, 14 drivers without passengers, and somewhat more by female drivers. ECDs were used for talking by 2.3{\%} 15 of drivers and for typing by 1.7{\%} of drivers. Nationally, the use of hand-held ECDs for talking was 61{\%} 16 lower in 2012 than that observed in 2007. A detailed analysis of drivers talking on ECDs before and after 17 laws prohibiting their use came into effect indicated that usage was significantly lower after the law in 18 nine jurisdictions. 19 INTRODUCTION 20 21 The ownership of electronic communications devices (ECDs) such as cell phones, smart phones, and 22 tablets has increased by about 33{\%} between 2007 and 2012 although it is not clear how many of these are 23 hand-held versus hands-free (Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association, 2012). The use of 24 these devices has expanded from speaking to sending e-mails and to text messaging. Many of these ECDs 25 are being used by drivers while they are operating their vehicles and research has indicated that the use of 26 ECDs while driving increases the risk of collisions [Klauer, et al. 2010; Redelmeier, et al., 1997; Laberge-27 Nadeau, 2003). While some drivers are moving to hands-free ECDs in the belief that they are safer, there 28 is a growing body of evidence that these ECDs are distracting as well given that the cognitive engagement 29 in the driving task is just as important, if not more important, than the physical manipulation of the ECD 30 (Harbluk, et al., 2007). Clearly, the use of ECDs by drivers is a road safety risk which should be 31 monitored. 32 33 The last time cell phone use by Canadian drivers was observed, an estimated 3.6{\%} of drivers were 34 talking on hand-held cell phones in rural areas in 2009 and 3.3{\%} were talking on them in urban areas in 35 2010 (Transport Canada, 2001). From 2002 to 2011, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 36 has consistently found that 5{\%} of drivers were holding cell phones to their ear based on an annual 37 observational survey of about 40-50,000 drivers at about 1,400 urban, suburban, and rural locations 38 throughout the United States (NHTSA, (2013). However, typing on these devices has increased from 0.6 39 to 1.3{\%} from 2009 to 2011. A recent observational survey in Massachusetts found that 7.0{\%} of drivers 40 were using ECDs, of whom 5.6{\%} were talking and 1.4{\%} were typing. ECD use was higher among 41 females and teenagers, among drivers of SUVs, drivers without passengers, on weekdays, and after 3pm 42 (Wenners, et al., 2013). 43 44 In order to address the risk associated with using ECDs, most Canadian jurisdictions have passed laws 45 prohibiting the use of hand-held ECDs while driving. In order to determine whether driver use of hand-46 held ECDs has changed since the introduction of these laws, a survey was conducted at urban sites in 47 September 2012. The current survey does not address the use of hands-free ECDs by drivers which may 48 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Overnight home charging is expected to be the most prevalent and cost-effective way to refuel plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). Workplace charging is also expected to play a prominent role and provide various benefits, such as extending the number of electric miles driven and enabling PEV adoption by drivers in difficult residential charging environments. This research assesses workplace charging from two perspectives, 1) employers investing in workplace-charging facilities and pricing their use and 2) employee drivers. It finds that pricing levels likely to provide drivers with financial motivation to fuel at work relative to gasoline refueling might provide limited opportunity for station cost recovery. For example, a {\$}0.20-per-kilowatt-hour markup on top of average commercial electricity costs—a level some drivers may even find uncompetitive—might only cover {\$}1,500 in all-in facility investment costs per PEV served. Similarly, drivers may balk at workplace-charging prices at or exceeding {\$}1.25/hour or {\$}35/month, which provide comparable cost-recovery potential. Additionally, the differential, " discriminatory " impact of different pricing structures is discussed. Across pricing structures, increasing facility utilization (i.e., increasing economies of scale in use) is key to improving financial viability. This might prove difficult, however, given associated costs described herein. Solutions that increase utilization while minimizing per-vehicle costs (e.g., " multiplexed, " perhaps lower-power facilities) might help address these constraints. Monte Carlo simulation is presented to highlight key uncertainties of both station profitability and refueling costs. Importantly, it indicates that employers' choice of pricing structure will differentially affect their ability to remain financially viable in the face of uncertainty.},

Congestion and travel time reliability are explored in great 7 detail in the vicinity of the ICC and the entire metropolitan area. The analysis found that 8 although the metropolitan area generally experienced better traffic conditions in 2012 (after) than 9 2010 (before), the ICC vicinity area experienced a greater magnitude of improvements than did 10 the region overall, by a margin of about 3-4 percentage points, which is an indication of the ICC 11 net effect.

abstract = {Understanding passenger expectations is a major task for rail transit operators so that they can determine necessary service improvements and the need to undertake new resource planning projects. Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA), the commuter rail operator in Taiwan, is seeking an approach to identify customer expectations by types of services and by region. Level of service (LOS) as defined by the Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual (TCQSM) is a widely used approach to evaluate the performance of transit services. However, predefined thresholds from the TCQSM used to evaluate service quality without knowing customer expectations may not reflect actual passen-ger satisfaction. In this study, a rail service sensitivity meter (RSSM) was developed to measure passenger expectations accurately and quantitatively and to determine acceptable levels of rail service. The RSSM was implemented in the empirical study to determine passen-ger expectations in regard to an acceptable LOS obtained through the process. Results of the empirical study set the benchmarks of service quality attributes and indicate that TRA service performance is generally acceptable, but TRA should focus on improvements to passenger load during peak hours by lengthening current trains with additional seats or by providing additional train services. Through the RSSM process, operators can evaluate the gap between expected services and actual services as well as improve the system to ensure customer satisfaction. Rail transit systems are one of the most important modes in public transportation; therefore, overall transit service quality is substantially affected by these systems. Previous studies have proved the positive effect of service quality on customer satisfaction and repurchase intentions of public transportation passengers (1, 2). In other words, a system can attract more passengers and associated revenue when it provides users with satisfactory services. Consequently, assessing customer satisfaction and expectation is a crucial task in monitoring the performance of existing systems and determining the direction of service improvements as well as the need to undertake new resource planning projects. The commuter rail operator, Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA), is eager to determine customer expectations (3, 4). Since the Taiwan high-speed rail entered the intercity rail market in western Taiwan, TRA has focused on improving commuter services by adding train services, acquiring next-generation rolling stock, and constructing new commuter stations. At the same time, TRA has to maintain a certain level of intercity passenger services for non-business travelers. This shared corridor with commuter and intercity services causes significant capacity constraints on the system (5, 6). TRA provides commuter services in three different metropolitan regions in Taiwan, namely, Taipei, Taichung, and Kaohsiung, which represent the northern, central, and southern urban areas, respectively. Given limited resources in infrastructure and rolling stock, improving both types of services at all regions simultaneously is not feasible. Therefore, to determine the right direction for system improvements, TRA is seeking an approach to determine customer expectations by service type and by regions with the aim of enhancing customer satisfaction. Service quality perception is a comparison of customer expectations with actual service performance (7–9). Level of service (LOS) is a widely used approach to evaluate the service performance of transit systems (10–12). According to the 2nd edition of the Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual (TCQSM), the measures of service quality for a fixed-route transit are divided into two categories: (a) availability and (b) comfort and convenience (see Table 1) (10). A total of six indicators are used in the two categories proposed by the TCQSM to evaluate actual service performance, including fre-quency, hours of service, service coverage, passenger load, reliability, and transit-auto travel time. LOS can be applied easily to evaluate whether predetermined targets for service quality are achieved. The improvements would be made precisely according to the quantita-tive objectives. However, the improvements do not reflect the service quality perceived by passengers because no information about cus-tomer expectations is available. In addition, expected services vary depending on characteristics of passengers and regions. For example, an LOS of D may be poor for a particular group of passengers of mass rapid transit systems but may be fine for another group of commuter rail users. Unlike the evaluation of service performance, service quality perception is more difficult to measure correctly because of intangibility, heterogeneity, and inseparability (7). The price sensitivity meter (PSM) is an approach to measure the acceptable price range for a product according to survey data obtained from customers. This approach uses several price-related questions to identify the thresholds of lower and upper bounds of prices (13–17). In this study, the PSM concept was adopted and a rail service sensi-tivity meter (RSSM) was developed to measure customer expecta-tions accurately and quantitatively and to determine acceptable rail},

In this case, all the lanes in the reversible roadway could be assigned to one flow 12 direction according to the unsymmetrical level of traffic flow in both directions.

Capacity allocation and corresponding charges have become important issues in shared-use rail lines. This study developed new approaches suitable for North American shared-use cor- ridors with capacity models and base train equivalent concepts to estimate the possible capacity charges in congestion cost and opportunity cost. The possible access charging schemes were also assessed and compared with the current regime (infrastructure cost only). The evaluation of capacity charges demonstrates that owning railroads may bear significant conges- tion or opportunity cost, or both, resulting from the addition of passenger services. Opportunity cost, which represents the profit loss caused by lack of capacity and is paid by the owning railroad, is higher than the conges- tion cost. Therefore, capacity charges should be considered in the nego- tiation process between freight railroads and passenger operators. The proposed approaches facilitate the estimation of capacity charges from additional passenger trains with rational and quantitative methods. The charging schemes can assist railroads and operators in achieving a mutually satisfactory agreement.},

Apart from the geometric 3 design details and the operational characteristics of roundabouts there is also no clear guidance in terms 4 of the spacing of roundabouts, specifically when it comes to using them along a high order road. Often 5 the spacing requirements for signals along arterials are being used as a guideline to determine the spacing 6 of roundabouts. 7 8 This paper explores the practical use of roundabouts along arterials and specifically along high speed 9 rural arterials with relatively high commuter traffic volumes. This is done for a rural arterial in the 10 Western Cape, South Africa. The focus of the evaluation is specifically done in the context of operational 11 efficiencies, access management and future capacity requirements of the arterial. 12 13 The operational efficiencies of the roundabouts along the corridor, currently and under future higher 14 demand scenarios, was evaluated using micro-simulation analysis where roundabout control is 15 compared with traffic signal control. The comparison of the simulation results clearly highlights the 16 operational advantages of using roundabouts, but is also illustrates possible future capacity constraints 17 for the roundabout scenarios. Based on the simulation results it is evident that roundabouts could play a 18 role in the rural arterial context, not only operationally but also in terms of safety and future capacity 19 expansions. 20 21},

It is independently organised and moderated. The Hybrid User Forum collaborates closely with UIPT. One task is the analysis of market obstacles. Real-world expectations and experience can be compared to the expected outcomes of the HCV project. Periodic questionnaires and annual workshops clearly demonstrate a gap between user expectations and the experience of practical operation – especially in terms of fuel consumption, reliability/availability and maintenance. Although hybrid buses have achieved a recognizable share in the urban bus fleets, the satisfaction level is not always sufficient. Especially with the available 18 m (60ft) articulated buses, the expectations were not fully met. The 12m (40ft) standard buses and double-deckers achieve in general better results.

The primary objective of this study was to develop quantitative approaches to analyze interactioas between buses and bicycles at bus stops. Field investigations were conducted at four types of bus stops in China. Observed data were used to test the significance of differences in bicycle speeds, and a model was proposed to predict the number of meeting events between buses and bicycles. Results indicate that bicycle speeds arc influenced significantly when a bicyclist meets a bus at a bus stop where both vehicle types share the same lane. Setting strips to separate bus and bicycle movement trajectories can reduce or eliminate the impact on efficiency and safety. The number of meeting events between buses and bicycles can be used to characterize the level of service of this facility shared by buses and bicycles. The proposed model achieved relatively accurate prediction for the number of meeting events. The findings can contribute to a quantitative understanding of the effects on buses and bicycles at stops and to an evaluation of this facility shared by buses and bicycles.},

However, the classical car rental industry has only timidly adopted this 4 technology. In this paper, we develop a mathematical model for optimal trip assignment of 5 electric and conventional vehicles (CVs) in a regional car rental company. The model is built 6 using a time-space network and all BEVs' charging constraints are part of the formulation. The 7 model must satisfy all existing demand and two objectives were considered: to maximize the 8 number of trips done by BEVs, and to maximize profit. We applied the model to the Portuguese 9 central region and concluded that BEVs are considerably less profitable than CVs, since they 10 are less useful for intercity trips. Even if the costs and revenues were the same as CVs, the 11 BEVs are still out performed by the CVs because the recharging time is a drawback in some 12 trips. On a positive note, BEVs do not necessarily imply a financial loss for the companies and 13 a cost-benefit analysis may well prove the existence of a considerable profit from including 14 these vehicles, since the marketing and environmental effects are not being valued at the 15 moment. 16 17 18 Keywords: electric vehicles, car rental, mixed integer programming, profit 19 maximization 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

ABSTRACT 49 In late 2010, the City of Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments (PPACG) 50 completed a cooperative wildfire evacuation planning process. The process was supported by simulation 51 of wildfire evacuation scenarios using an adaptation of the PPACG's four-step travel model. The adapted 52 model was used to assess times-to-evacuate, identify choke points, and develop traffic control plans for 53 identified at-risk neighborhoods. Evacuation simulations used a worst-case scenario in which the wildfire 54 event took place during the PM peak hour and affected households were included in both background 55 commuter traffic and neighborhood evacuation traffic. Link-based hourly volume/capacity ratios were 56 used as a metric to estimate times-to-evacuate and to identify egress bottlenecks. Route closures, route 57 restrictions, no-entry restrictions and contraflow operations were evaluated as measures for inclusion in 58 neighborhood-level traffic control plans. 59 60 On Tuesday, June 26, 2012, the simulated worst case became reality. Nearly 34,000 persons were 61 evacuated during the event, more than half during the six hour period between 1530 and 2130. Before the 62 wildfire was fully contained, 18,247 acres had burned, 347 homes and other structures had been 63 destroyed, and 2 individuals had perished. That the no-notice, mandatory evacuation was as successful as 64 it was can be attributed to extensive advance planning, the accuracy of modeled evacuation simulations 65 and the effectiveness of the final traffic control plans. This paper examines how the model results were 66 borne out by actual experience. Recommendations to improve no-notice evacuation planning from the 67 perspective of " lessons learned " are also presented. 68 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Bejleri, Ouyang, Peng, Brown 2 ABSTRACT 1 Many travel demand forecast models operate at state, regional and local levels. While they share 2 the same physical network in overlapping geographic areas, they use different and uncoordinated 3 modeling networks. This creates difficulties for models to exchange common information and 4 can result in data collection redundancies and difficulties in finding data errors or comparing 5 future projections. This research investigated the issue of network information exchange among 6 models and proposed a framework to accomplish the information exchange using a unified 7 statewide GIS network approach. Named 'Model Information eXchange System' (MIXS), the 8 proposed solution includes a geospatial relational data model that can support all participating 9 models with their input variables and forecast scenarios as well as protocols and operations to 10 guide the exchange process. Two tests, one with a small database and another with a full 11 statewide model, confirmed the feasibility of the MIXS database and processes. Although 12 participation in MIXS is not without challenges, most technical problems considered can be 13 solved. Successful implementation of MIXS will require a one-time time conversion to the 14 unified network for any model to participate in MIXS. MIXS will create an environment that 15 promotes convergence, standardization and unification of data and potentially model 16 assumptions, reduction of duplicate data collection efforts, reduction of errors, and ultimately 17 will result in better and more consistent models throughout the state. A potential linkage of MIXS 18 with a cloud-based modeling engine is recommended as one of the future items to explore during 19 its practical implementation. 20 21},

abstract = {1 Planning and management of emergency evacuation have recently received much attention by 2 the transportation research community, given the several recent major disasters in USA and 3 elsewhere in the world. Much of this recent research has focused on the evacuation of drivers 4 and passengers in vehicles. The movement of pedestrians from their origins, such as their 5 assigned seats at a large event, to their walking destinations, such as their parked vehicles has 6 largely been neglected. This pedestrian walking behavior has a direct and crucial impact on 7 departure curves of the evacuating vehicles from the evacuation origins. This paper studies the 8 role and a strategy of managing pedestrian traffic in emergency evacuations. A large-scale 9 simulation model was developed for analyzing the performance of different evacuation strategies. 10 Two scenarios are simulated and analyzed for evaluating a current pedestrian traffic management: 11 the current strategy and a proposed new one which basically assigns evacuation gates and 12 parking when an event ticket is purchased by or given to an attendee. Data from simulation runs 13 indicate the proposed strategy improves several evacuation measures, such as event clearance 14 times for various fractions of attendees. 15 16 17 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Previous research has reported on the need to implement quality control programs for ITS data to address critical issues such as suspicious or erroneous data, nature and extent of missing data, and accuracy and comparability of ITS data to similar data sources. This paper summarizes the work completed to address quality control and completeness issues associated with a very large archived ITS data set composed of some 3.4 billion 20-second lane detector data records from San Antonio's TransGuide. The paper includes a description of the quality control tests utilized, the results of the analysis conducted, and a discussion of ITS data completeness issues. The researchers also utilized GIS to prepare maps showing the spatial trends in the distribution of quality control flags. These maps showed cases where the spatial distribution was roughly uniform, but also cases where there were significant exceptions. An evaluation of temporal variations in the distribution of quality control flags showed that, in most cases, the highest concentration of flagged records occurred at night, when there was relatively little traffic and, consequently, there was a higher chance for time intervals without vehicles or for isolated detector readings producing abnormal data. Finally, the researchers evaluated the data completeness both at the aggregate level (by server) and a more detailed individual detector level. This paper not only provides a revised set of quality-control tests, it also describes an innovative spatial and temporal analysis of data quality for two-year worth of data. While the analysis described in this paper uses data from one jurisdiction (San Antonio, Texas), the methodology is sufficiently generic to enable implementation at other traffic management centers.},

abstract = {1 In recent years, traffic congestion caused by rainwater has become a severe 2 problem in cities during period of heavy rainfall. The heavy rainfall sometimes 3 triggers traffic paralysis for the entire cities, resulting in enormous economic losses. 4 The objective of this paper is to estimate economic losses caused by heavy rainfall 5 from transportation perspective. A model of economic losses caused by rainfall and 6 traffic congestion has been developed. In general，economic losses are divided into 7 two parts: indirect and direct. The latter one (direct losses) is the focus of this study. 8 Although direct economic losses generally include excessive fuel consumption, 9 property damage, and travel time values, only excessive fuel consumption and time 10 value are modeled in this study without estimating property damage. The reason of 11 excluding property damage lies in the fact that the insurance system has not been 12 established and implemented to compensate drivers for incidents due to heavy 13 rainfall in mainland China. Moreover, it is difficult to obtain the data related to the 14 property damage triggered by the rainfall. 15 To fulfill the objective of the study, a speed-based model is developed to 16 estimate economic losses due to fuel consumption. It is believed that more fuel will 17 be consumed if a driver operates his/her vehicle at a speed lower than the critical 18 speed. The critical speed is defined as the speed at which fuel consumption reaches 19 the lowest level. In addition, a model of time value is also built up in the study to 20 quantitatively calculate monetary losses of the delays during the rainfall. The result 21 of this study can help water treatment engineers and elected officials make sensible 22 decisions in expanding drainage capacity of the city.},

abstract = {There is a long-running debate in the planning literature about the effects of built environment on travel behavior, and the degree to which apparent effects are due to the tendency of households to self select into neighborhoods that support their travel preferences. Those who want to walk will choose walkable neighborhoods, those who want to use transit will choose transit-served neighborhoods. These households might have walked or used transit more than their neighbors wherever they lived. Most previous studies have shown that individual attitudes attenuate the relationship between the residential environment and travel choices and so the effect of the built environment on travel may be overestimated. But there are other researcher who argue the reverse, claiming that residential preferences reinforce built environmental influences. This study assesses the relative importance of the built environment and residential preferences/travel attitudes for a sample of 1,104 households in the Greater Salt Lake region using structural equation modeling (SEM). For the sake of simplicity, we extracted two factors using principal component analysis (PCA), one representing the built environment and the other representing residential preferences/attitudes. Our findings are consistent with the view that the neighborhood built environment and residential preferences both influence household's travel, that the built environment is the stronger influence, and the built environment affects travel through two causal pathways, one direct and the other indirect, through attitudes.},

abstract = {1 2 This paper aims to examine mode choice behaviour for school trips in Dhaka City, one of the 3 densest cities of the world. To explore the factors that affect students' choice of travel mode for 4 school trips, a 24-hour travel diary survey was conducted in 2012 among students in grades 6-10 5 in Dhaka City, Bangladesh. A random parameter logit (RPL) model is estimated, considering 6 four major alternatives: private car, three wheel pedal-powered vehicles (TWPV), walk, and bus. 7 The model results show that the higher the travel time of a mode, the less would be the 8 probability of choosing the mode for school trips. It is also found that personal and household 9 characteristics influence children's mode choices for school trips. For example, socio-economic 10 factors such as household monthly income and size of the household play a vital role in choosing 11 private car for school trips. However, the study reveals that built environment attributes are the 12 most significant factors in mode choice for school trips in Dhaka City. For instance, the presence 13 of sidewalks around homes increases the probability of walking. On the other hand, the presence 14 of intersections nearby home reduces the use of TWPV. The model results also confirm that 15 considerable heterogeneity exist among sampled students as evident in statistically significant 16 standard deviations of the random parameters. Understanding mode choice behaviour is crucial 17 in reducing peak-hour localized traffic congestion in Dhaka City. It will also provide useful 18 insight to assist in effective planning and implementation of policies such as Safe Routes to 19 School (SR2S) in developing countries.},

abstract = {1 Land use is the original source of all travel, and land use characteristics play a dominant role in 2 direct ridership models. Among all land use characteristics, density and diversity are believed to 3 be the most effective ones. Nevertheless, nearly all existing models describe land use patterns and 4 distribution with two rough indexes, population and employment, while describing mixed land use 5 with entropy index, diversity index, jobs-housing index, and so forth. These indexes fail to describe 6 the details of different types of land use, and they are not capable of revealing the relationship 7 between transit ridership and land use characteristics in a transit station catchment area. 8 In order to solve this problem, POIs (points of interest) extracted from a Beijing electric 9 map were chosen to describe land use characteristics. Combined with the delineation of transit 10 station catchment areas, the precise land use characteristics of each catchment area were described 11 with a corresponding POI built area. Based on the precise land use characteristics and station 12 ridership data, a direct transit ridership model considering land use density and diversity was built 13 using multiple regression analysis. The moderately high correlation coefficient, R 2 =0.735, proves 14 the remarkable potential of using POIs in transit ridership forecasting. In order to prove the 15 feasibility of the direct model proposed in this paper, a model validation was carried out; validation 16 results meet the initial expectations, proving that the direct ridership model developed in this paper 17 could reflect this correlation between precise land use characteristics and station ridership. 18 19 1 INTRODUCTION 20 Geographic Information Systems have been widely recognized as useful in transportation planning 21 due to their flexible framework for delineating catchment areas and determining the independent 22 variables within the area (1{\~{}}4). Coverage analysis of transit station catchment areas naturally 23 carries the proxy for ridership estimation. Therefore, a number of direct ridership models were 24 developed using GIS and multiple regression analysis (5{\~{}}7). They can give an in-depth analysis 25 of station catchment areas and are more sensitive to land use changes, offering the possibility of 26 immediate response. 27 Current researches in catchment size is really flexible. For example, it was defined as the 28 contiguous area that historically captured 90{\%} of all access trips to and egress trips from the station 29 in the analysis of the BART system in the San Francisco Bay Area. And an application in Charlotte 30 defined the catchment size as the distance to the nearest adjacent station (8{\~{}}9,26). However, 31 existing models have left blank areas when delineating catchment areas, meaning these areas are 32 not attracted by any station. This discontinuous, all-or-nothing form does not match the situation 33 of large cities like Beijing and Tokyo, where people from all areas depend on transit for long 34 distance commuter travel, although there is a difference in attraction weight between different 35 areas. In this paper, the catchment area of a transit station is divided into three parts: the pedestrian 36 area, traffic area, and potential area. The delineating principle and attraction weight of each area 37 were then determined through resident trip surveys of Beijing. 38 Land use is believed to be the basis of all travel; thus land use characteristics should play a 39},

abstract = {Hurricane Sandy hit the New York City metropolitan area on October 29, 2012, resulting in flooding and widespread damage which closed or partially obstructed transportation facilities throughout the region. Damaged transit systems and highways crippled commutes for roughly 10 million commuters for weeks after the Storm. The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) manages “511NY”, a statewide multi-modal travel and incident information service which serves New York via its 511NY.org website and phone number. TDM outreach and rideshare support is provided by NYSDOT through 511NYRideshare as an Integral element of 511NY. During Hurricane Sandy, 511NYRideshare provided information support and outreach to commuters and employers, especially to medical staff in area hospitals, since access to several hospitals was heavily impacted by the storm. This paper details the range of traveler information services provided by NYSDOT and 511NYRideshare and outlines the level of emergency preparedness planning and response for providing travel information services. It also highlights the need for traditional TDM operations, including multi-modal travel information services and employer outreach, to be integrated into larger multi-agency emergency preparation and response efforts. Furthermore, this paper showcases outcomes of employer involvement in emergency response, which further emphasizes the benefits of integrated TDM programs. A commuter survey and employer interviews were conducted to analyze the change of commute behavior and impact of employer involvement in encouraging alternatives for long term commuter travel behavior. The paper also outlines lessons learned and recommendations for further integration of TDM and emergency preparation and response services. TRB},

abstract = {As passenger railway demand has increased, this has put increasing pressure on capacity. In urban areas, railway line capacity is determined by station stops, and the movement of passengers on and off trains at stations is therefore critical. Understanding and quantifying the factors which determine boarding and alighting rates is essential if railways are to manage these issues appropriately. Although a number of individual researchers have examined passenger flow rates in particular conditions, this study has had access to an international dataset of passenger movements at almost 130 locations. Collection of background information on train and platform characteristics has supported data on passenger flow to provide 17 possible independent variables. Simple regressions have limitations of correlation and choice of functional form which have been overcome in this work by using a multivariate fractional function approach. This has enabled the derivation of statistically-significant parameters to explain passenger boarding and alighting, with seven variables providing the vast majority of explanatory power. However, although it is still believed to be an important factor, door width was not one of the isolated variables, being subject to a threshold width value which makes the identification of an appropriate functional form very difficult.},

Its nature of open source 12 and open structure let users easily tailor a complicated simulation program by extending the default 13 essential data and simulation models and plugging in the partitioned simulation flow. If needed, classical 14 simulation models are readily available in a repository. Along with useful automation procedures such as 15 network generation from web GIS application, a comprehensive demonstration for running a typical 16 traffic simulation on the platform is shown programmatically.

The generic approach minimizes the evacuation times, considering the demand dependent waiting times at bottlenecks within the considered infrastructure. We present the mathematical optimization problem for both the optimal instructions, and the continuum model describing the pedestrian flow dynamics. The key contribution of the approach is that it solves the evacuation problem considering the entire solution space in a continuous manner (i.e. both the time dimension and the routing), implying that for each location and for each time instant the optimal path towards the most favorable exit is calculated, taking into consideration the traffic flow operations along the routes. The approach is generic in the sense that different network loading models can be used, and that a variety of components can be added to the optimization objective without loss of generality. Next to presenting the framework and the mathematical model, we propose an iterative numerical solver to compute the optimal instructions. We demonstrate the abilities and opportunities of this optimization framework with two case studies.},

In most cases, the number of vehicles delayed due to a parking maneuver is limited. 3 However, if the maneuver occurs near a signalized intersection, the delay may linger over multiple cycles, 4 resulting in a degraded performance of the traffic system. In this paper, we try to define a minimum distance 5 from the parking area to the intersection to avoid such delay. As the throughput reduction at the intersection is 6 highly linked to the lingering delay, it is used as a key indicator of the traffic performance. 7 Based on the hydrodynamic theory of traffic flow, the perturbation caused by the parking maneuver is analyzed. 8 Using dimensional analysis, we illustrate the relation between the background conditions (i.e., traffic demand, 9 signal control settings, duration of the parking maneuver), the distance from the parking area to the intersection, 10 and the throughput reduction at the intersection. Based on this relation, one can find a minimum distance to 11 avoid lingering delay (throughput reduction) when designing the parking area. Similarly, we can compute the 12 throughput reduction caused by existing on-street parking areas. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate 13 the practical applications. We hope the findings can be used as a basis for developing on-street parking design 14 guidelines.},

abstract = {Sags arc freeway sections along which the gradient changes significantly from downward to upward. The capacity of sags is considerably lower than the capacity of normal sections. Consequently, sags are often freeway bottlenecks. Recently, several control measures have been proposed to improve traffic (low efficiency at sags. Those measures generally aim to increase the capacity of the bottleneck, to prevent traffic flow perturbations in nearly saturated conditions, or both. This paper presents an alternative type of measure based on the concept of mainstream traffic flow control. The proposed control measure regulates traffic density at the bottleneck area to keep it below the critical density and hence prevent traffic from breaking down while maximizing outflow. Density is regulated by means of a variable speed limit section that regulates the inflow to the bottleneck. Speed limits are selected oil the basis of a feedback control law. The authors evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy by means of a simple case study by using microscopic traffic simulation. The results show a significant increase in bottleneck outflow, particularly (luring periods of high demand, which leads to a considerable decrease in total delay. This finding suggests that mainstream traffic flow control strategies that use variable speed limits have the potential to improve substantially the performance of freeway networks containing sags.},

For this purpose, various sensors are used to collect traffic 3 information. As a newly effective and practical travel speed measurement tool, cellular probe system is 4 gaining market penetration. In this paper, the handoff system, one of cellular probe technologies, is used 5 for speed detection. However, the handoff coverage size is usually large on freeways, which means 6 consecutive handoff points are remote and this may affect the accuracy of speed estimation. To improve 7 the accuracy of speed estimation, this paper proposes a method to aggregate the cellular probe and loop 8 detectors. For the purposes of a rigorous comparison, data are generated from microscopic simulation 9 models of virtual one-direction freeway sections under different traffic conditions. The microscopic 10 simulation model includes loop detectors and cellular probe system, allowing for an automated method of 11 probe vehicle data collection. Results show that the increasing number of loop detectors will improve the 12 accuracy of speed estimation by the aggregation of cellular probe system and loop detectors. Furthermore, 13 the analysis shows that the estimation error is large under low-flow or high-flow traffic conditions, no 14 matter how the cellular probe system and loop detectors are aggregated.

Facing a complex, mixed traffic condition and a lot of risky driving 46 behaviors in China, commercial passenger vehicles need an effective speeding 47 warning system to reduce the high accident rate related to these vehicles. Although 48 many automobile manufacturers have installed the speeding warning systems on their 49 vehicles, the styles of these auditory speeding warning systems are different, and no 50 study has been found to investigate the effectiveness of the auditory speeding warning 51 systems for commercial passenger vehicles. Therefore, this paper is intent to fill such 52 a gap and evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of three speeding warning styles 53 that can be used on commercial passenger vehicles. In this study, thirty drivers 54 qualified for driving the commercial passenger vehicles are recruited and then asked 55 to drive for four 80-km field trips on an expressway in Wuhan, China. Driving 56 behavior is logged by a monitoring system and is monitored by two observers during 57 these trips. Reaction time, perception time and responsive behaviors of drivers related 58 to each of the three speeding warning systems are then compared. Driver's preference 59 to auditory warning styles is also collected through questionnaires after the field trip. 60 Study results show that, under the three warning styles, driver's biological 61 characteristics (e.g., respiration and skin conductance) and the observed behaviors 62 don't show any significant differences, but the logged driving data show that the 63 " Beep " sound is most effective and " Break sound " is the least, in terms of reducing 64 speeding duration and reaction time. Basically, the results of this study should provide 65 a good reference for developing future voice-based speed warning systems for 66 commercial passenger vehicles in China.},

A total 2154 pedestrians were requested to give assessments of mid-block crosswalk immediately after the road crossing based on their experiences of the realistic site condition. From the study it can be concluded that the variables such as age, frequency of using crosswalk, purpose of the trip, safety condition, crossing difficulty and median width have a significant effect on pedestrian LOS at mid-block location under mixed traffic scenario. The inferences of these results are useful for evaluating the quality of existing mid-block crosswalk locations and designing a new set of facilities at mid-block locations.},

abstract = {29 After the Canterbury earthquakes in New Zealand, a massive reconstruction program commenced. 30 The total damage to commercial and infrastructure assets had been estimated at approximately NZ{\$}20 31 billion. A new project delivery model has been developed to cope with the difficulties of disaster 32 rebuild programs like unknown scope, political pressures, and intense public scrutiny. The Stronger 33 Christchurch Infrastructure rebuild Team (SCIRT) is a unique development of the 'pure' alliance 34 commercial model in that it aligns commercial drivers with high performance objectives to deliver 35 mutually agreed outcomes. The SCIRT collaborative alliance has overlain convention with 36 competitive tension without upsetting the fundamental outcome-focus drivers. The overall effect is a 37 positive impact of continually giving incentive to raise performance of delivery teams, both as 38 separate entities and in shared support with the resulting benefit to client organisations. In the US, a 39 potential framework for implementing alliance-style contracts has already been successfully used to 40 procure disaster recovery construction projects on a very large scale using multiple award indefinite 41 delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts. The paper conducts a comparative analysis of the two 42 approaches and finds that the level of collaboration in the US IDIQ model is not nearly as 43 comprehensive as in the NZ alliance contracts. It also concludes that the major barrier to 44 implementing alliance contracts in the US is development of an approach to 'pain-gain' sharing that is 45 compatible with both US federal and state procurement statutes. 46},

abstract = {We focus on predicting demands of bicycle usage in Velib system of Paris, which is a large-scale bicycle sharing service covering the whole Paris and its near suburbs. In this system, bicycle demand of each station usually correlates with historical Velib usage records at both spatial and temporal scale. The spatio-temporal correlation acts as an important factor affecting bicycle demands in the system. Thus it is a necessary information source for predicting bicycle demand of each station accurately. To investigate the spatio-temporal correlation pattern and integrate it into prediction, we propose a spatio-temporal network filtering process to achieve the prediction goal. The linkage structure of the network encodes the underlying correlation information. We utilize a sparsity regularized negative binomial regression based variable selection method to learn the network structure automatically from the Velib usage data, which is designed to highlight important spatio-temporal correlation between historical bicycle usage records and the bicycle demands of each station. Once we identify the network structure,a prediction model fit well with our goal is obtained directly. To verify the validity of the proposed method, we test it on a a large-scale record set of Velib usage.},

abstract = {Accurate prediction of vehicle motion status is critical for developing an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), which can assess driving safety and detect dangerous scenarios in real time and in the near future. Although previous vehicle motion prediction models developed were mostly built on the basis of kinematic principles, driver behavior was largely ignored. Those models resulted in inaccurate trajectory predictions. To improve forecasting accuracy, the study reported here developed an improved vehicle motion model that includes consideration of both kinematic principles and real-time driver behavior. This improved vehicle motion model incorporates driver behavior into a constant acceleration (CA) model. Data on practical driver behavior, such as perception, identification, volition, and execution under traffic conditions and lane changes were collected. A quantitative approach based on a linear quadratic regulator optimal control method was used to acquire the driver's expected control input. In addition, a Kalman filter was applied to predict short-term vehicle motion, which was then used to analyze driving risks. Finally, CARSIM software was used to simulate driving scenarios. A Monte Carlo method was used to evaluate prediction accuracy and compare the results of the CA model and the improved vehicle motion model. The simulation results showed that the improved model can effectively simulate driver behavior in acceleration control by taking into full consideration the driver's volition and traffic environment. The proposed model yielded better predictions, provided an applicable way to improve the accuracy of vehicle motion prediction, and could be used to enhance the performance of ADAS.},

Since the pedestrian dynamics is restricted in the circular motion and 4 therefore the combination of hexagonal lattice and polar coordinate has a favourable 5 compatibility of describing the spiral movement. The CA model is newly built by means of 6 the interactions between the floor fields and particles in a cell. Various simulations are 7 carried out to see the macro dynamic performances. The model reproduces the dynamical 8 motions of the pedestrians spirally moving towards the centre point. A jam around the 9 rotational centre has a deadlock phenomenon since the centre point is the destination for all. 10 Various analyses on the numerically calculated results are presented in terms of the steady 11 state. The circumferential and radial motion creates two spatial phases such as deadlock and 12 free flow appeared at the steady state, where the inward and outward flows are in equilibrium 13 at the phase boundary.},

However, urban rail transit heavily relies on the access and egress transit, 4 hence on the corresponding transfer facilities. Therefore, passengers' choice depends on 5 the design of transfer facilities at urban rail station area to a great extent. An improvement 6 in these transfer facilities is to promote integration level, which may attract passengers to 7 urban rail transit more conveniently. In this paper, we focus on the transfer coupling status 8 of multimodal transfer facilities at urban rail stations. To this end, multimodal transfer 9 system at urban rail stations is dissected regarding urban rail transit trip chain from origin 10 to destination and multimodal modes in station area. Transfer distance matrix is proposed 11 as a useful tool to show equivalent walking distance (EWD) between transfer facilities to 12 urban rail transit, which shows types of transit facilities, location and number of all 13 facilities and practical walking distance clearly during access transfer trip and egress 14 transfer trip. Multimodal transfer coupling concept at urban rail station is put forward to 15 analyze integration level problem, after which transfer coupling model is established, 16 including transfer coupling degree for multimodal modes and different entrances. Field 17 observation of urban rail station was conducted at Lelylaan station in the city of Amsterdam, 18 and coupling status analysis derived from the collected data is discussed. The models could 19 have a reasonably good fit to practical case, and the findings presented in this study are 20 thus directly valuable for planners and designers aimed at improving urban rail transit 21 ridership. 22 23 24 25},

The implicit valuation of the ton of CO 2 through the setting of an emissions abatement target 11 to be reached by a certain date by the local transport planner (referring to the standard back-casting 12 method) is here enriched by the analysis of the 'delivery channels' of the policy – the revealed determinants 13 of the individual transport mode choice. 14 The heterogeneity of the population, the diversity of the transport system, and the multipolar structuration 15 of the conurbation of Lille make the French agglomeration a relevant case study for our investigation. 16 Performing a nested logit model, we find that individuals differently factor mobility level-of-service 17 variables when opting for car use or for transport modes with a lower carbon footprint according to their 18 characteristics, transport network attributes and the design of the land use at destination. 19 Moreover, due to the uncertainty which weighs on the spatial scale, the time horizon and the magnitude 20 of damages from climate change and so to the sizeable costs of implementing 'first-best' policy tools (e.g. 21 setting a carbon tax on fossil fuels) a particular attention is paid to 'second-best' instruments (i.e. non 22 directly CO 2 -oriented measures, more prominent at the local level) to mitigate CO 2 emissions from urban 23 passengers' mobility.

Understanding how this market is likely to evolve in different jurisdictions requires an understanding of the major factors, technical, economic, and societal, that are driving this change. This paper applies a technological innovation system framework consisting of seven indicators- knowledge development and diffusion, influence on the direction of search, entrepreneurial experimentation, market formation, legitimation, resources mobilization, and development of positive externalities- to examine Norway as a case-study of actors, institutions, and networks that have led to relatively high levels of electric vehicle adoption. Factors that appear to contribute strongly to Norway's battery-electric market shares include significant consumer incentives including purchase and in-use incentives.

This paper uses data from the American Time Use Survey to demonstrate the extent 11 to which racial differences in automobile use contribute to the racial gap in activity participation. 12 The results suggest that narrowing the gap in automobile use between white and non-white teens 13 may reduce racial gaps in participation and improve developmental outcomes. In addition, this 14 paper demonstrates how activity participation will likely decline as rates of teen driving decline. 15 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. Ralph 2 EMPLOYMENT AND EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITY PARTICIPATION 1 Public debates about teenagers' use of time and their participation (or lack thereof) in structured 2 activities often fail to account for teens' ability to access these activities, many of which take 3 place distant from teens' homes. To transportation scholars and practitioners, the link between 4 automobile use and accessibility is clear. This paper seeks to integrate that perspective into the 5 broader discussion of teenagers' time use and assess the extent to which differences in 6 automobile use contribute to the racial gaps in activity participation. Transportation scholars 7 have something to learn from integrating these perspectives as well. Teens today are less likely 8 than in the past to drive (1). How will this trend affect participation in structured activities? By 9 re-emphasizing the purpose of travel—to participate in activities—this paper aims to shift the 10 dialogue about ongoing decline in teen driving. 11 Benefits of Participation in Employment and Extracurricular Activities 12 Most of teens' time—80{\%} of it—takes place outside of school hours (2) and how teens spend 13 this discretionary time influences their development. Many people worry that teens who spend 14 considerable time unsupervised watching television, hanging out with friends, and surfing the 15 internet are less likely to succeed than teens who participate in structured, supervised activities. 16 Indeed, evidence from a number of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies suggest that 17 participation in structured activities not only reduces undesirable outcomes like dropping out of 18 school, criminal activity, drug use, and teenage pregnancy (3), participation also improves 19 academic performance, increases the likelihood of attending college, and is associated with more 20 frequent pro-social behaviors like voting and volunteering as adults (2; 4-5). In an analysis of 21 longitudinal data from a nationally representative sample of teenagers, Zaff et al. find teens who 22 participate in structured activities throughout high school are 70 percent more likely to attend 23 college, 60 percent more likely to vote, and 80 percent more likely to volunteer than teens who 24 participated less consistently, even when controlling for household income, academic ability, 25 parental monitoring, peer influence, gender, race, and a host of other factors thought to influence 26 adolescent development (2). 27 Activity participation is thought to contribute to desirable outcomes through a number of 28 pathways. First, it crowds out less-desirable, unsupervised activities during the high-risk after-29 school hours (2-3; 6). Second, teens who participate in structured activities often engage in goal-30 oriented behaviors and skill development, which contribute to an increased sense of self-worth 31 (7). What is more, many activities give teens an opportunity to develop positive peer 32 relationships and build ties with adult mentors (4). Together these theoretical pathways bolster 33 the causal interpretation of empirical results and many psychologists interpret the link between 34 activity participation and positive outcomes as causal and not merely the result of selection or a 35 spurious relationship (2; 4; 6). 36 Due to the long-term effects on educational attainment, civic engagement, and 37 employment, society in general, not just teenagers, benefit when teens participate in structured 38 activities. Unfortunately, rates of participation are not evenly distributed across the population 39 (5). While some teens, particularly upper-and middle-income white teens are very likely to 40 participate in structured activities, other teens are far less likely. To the extent that participation 41 truly does provide long-term benefits for both teenagers and society as a whole, the gap in 42 activity participation is disconcerting. 43},

The use of social network analysis builds on traditional models of travel behavior that rely on individualistic assumptions about decision making rather than the social context in which travel behavior takes place. Using a sample of university students, two approaches are employed to incorporate social factors into travel behavior models. First, mode choice is explored using traditional socio-economic, attitudinal and trip characteristic variables. Ego-centric social network factors including behaviors of close contacts are incorporated into these models to investigate whether alter behaviors influence ego transportation mode choice. Second, using spatially defined social reference groups, similar reference group mode use variables are considered. Attitudinal and socio-demographic characteristics of respondents are also considered, and generally yield expected results. Models are compared and I find that for some mode choices, the choices of the explicit ego-network are more influential, while for other choices, it is the spatially defined social reference group that is more influential.},

abstract = {Mobile phone positioning data sets contain spatio-temporal positions of millions of mobile phone users. While its application in recent human behavior studies has seen great success, it remains to be explored by the travel behavior research community. In this study, we discuss the potential of mobile phone positioning data as an alternative data source for travel behavior studies. We are particularly interested in its potential for analyses in travel behavior dynamics. Analyses in travel behavior dynamics rely on multi-day travel data. Multi-day travel diary and GPS tracking are two primary approaches for multi-day travel data collection. Yet, both approaches are limited in several aspects. We discuss the relative advantages of mobile positioning over travel diary/GPS tracking as an alternative data collection technique. As an example, a real-world mobile phone positioning data set is applied to examine the variability in individuals' activity location choices. Results demonstrate the ability of mobile phone positioning data in capturing temporal dynamics in individuals' spatial behaviors. We conclude that mobile phone positioning data is a promising data source for travel behavior study. There are, however, caveats. We discuss potential issues with this type of data as well as their implications when used for travel behavior studies. In addition, we review recent studies producing novel insights into human mobility with mobile phone positioning data from other disciplines in the hope that more travel behavior researchers will join this effort},

The facility was 5 converted into a HOT lane and opened on October 1, 2011. This paper reports the data 6 collection, processing, and filtering of the vehicle occupancy data and the factors that influence 7 vehicle occupancy along the I-85 corridor both before and the conversion. The research effort 8 used regression tree analysis techniques to identify data collector bias and then the effects of the 9 different factors such as season, data collection site, morning peak/evening peak, and lane type 10 on vehicle occupancy. The study identified that vehicle occupancy data on Monday were 11 different from those collected on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The study identified 12 data collectors and sessions that had statistically different data from other sessions and filtered 13 these data. The research effort then explored the factors affecting vehicle occupancy for 14 morning peak and afternoon peak separately given that related travel behavior characteristics are 15 very different. The research identified that lane type (managed or general purpose) was the most 16 significant factor affecting occupancy, followed by pre/post conversion of the HOV to HOT 17 lane. The study also found that the average vehicle occupancy decreased after the conversion of 18 the HOV lane. Based on the results of this paper, the vehicle occupancy data were aggregated 19 into the 'Center Stations', north of SR 316 and south of I 285 regions. The vehicle occupancy 20 data are currently being applied to evaluate person throughput along the corridor.},

abstract = {1 This paper presents an extension of the classical 4-step freight modeling framework with a logistics 2 chain model. The logistics chain model translates trade flows into transport flows by creating logistics 3 chains from the production regions to the consumption regions. The model assigns trade flow to the 4 logistics chains, which may involve intermediate stops at logistics facilities such as distribution centers 5 and warehouses. An aggregate multinomial logit discrete choice model is used to determine flow 6 volumes for each of the possible logistics chains. Using the European trade flow and transport flow 7 data, we show that the logistics chain model can translate trade flows into transport flows with 8 sufficient accuracy. We present the results on the fit between estimated and control transport flows 9 together with the estimated model parameters. We conclude that the logistics chain model can be used 10 in industrial scale modeling suits bridging the gap between trade distribution and network assignment 11 sub-models.},

abstract = {1 Nowadays urban traffic is one of the main challenges for urban areas in terms of congestion, 2 accidents and pollution. This problem has been stressed by the increasing mobility promoted by the 3 use of private vehicles. So, the time wasted on users' trips has an important impact on urban 4 economy. In this context, transport models become relevant for the development of new strategies 5 and policies for a sustainable urban transport. In particular, models for traffic forecasting like 6 dynamic traffic assignment models, providing temporal coherent representation of the interactions 7 among traffic choices, flows, time and cost measures. In this paper, we develop a dynamic traffic 8 assignment model based on the dynamic user equilibrium by solving a variational inequalities 9 formulation under a preventive approach. An iterative solution algorithm, which is a modification of 10 the Method of Successive Averages, explicitly considers the time and a variable traffic demand on 11 each path of the network within the flow propagation and assignment processes. The dynamics of the 12 reassigned flows at each iteration is simulated by a new mesoscopic multiclass multilane simulation 13 model accounting for lane changes and traffic control at signalized intersections.},

Most congestion mitigation strategies are intended to alter mode as well as trip departure time choices of travelers. Thus, these two travel dimensions have to be analyzed and modeled jointly. However, it is usually difficult to uncover the trade-offs between different LOS attributes with revealed preference (RP) data, particularly in the context of TOD choice modeling. The objective of the current study was to develop an integrated model of mode and trip departure TOD choices by using both RP and stated preference (SP) data from the large-scale household travel survey undertaken in Jerusalem in 2010. The SP component was designed specifically to compensate for the RP limitations and provide mode and departure time switches as the result of policies such as pricing.

abstract = {Roadwork zones interrupt the flow of traffic and shall reduce road safety of motorways (autobahns), at least in specific sections. Motorways are the fastest roads in the German roadwork and have the highest level of safety - higher than either roads inside built-up areas or other roads outside built-up areas. Nevertheless, a total of 17,172 accidents involving personal injury occurred on motorways in the year 2011, 1,118 of them at roadwork zones. A total of 18 people were killed and 220 seriously injured. The principal aim of this research project was to find out if either roadwork zones on motorways are more unsafe than other motorways sections or they are specific subsections inside of roadwork zones or near them which are particularly unsafe. The research project consisted of an analysis of the statistics in the vicinity of all roadwork zones on German motorways (autobahns). Road accidents recorded by the police for a period of at least 12 months at 76 selected roadwork zones and a retrospective accident analysis of 12 completed motorway roadwork zones were macroscopic analyzed. In addition, a microscopic analysis of the accident occurrence was carried out of eight existing roadwork zones with a total length of 57 km and included also the analysis of the driving behavior of car and truck drivers throughout the length of the roadwork zones and/or in characteristic subsections in or near them. The results of the research project confirm that accidents at roadwork zones on motorways are generally accidents involving minor damage to property. The accident severity (fatalities per 1,000 accidents involving personal injury) of accidents that occur on sections of motorway without roadwork zones is up to 1.6 times higher than that of accidents that occur at roadwork zones. The study shows different accident rates and accident cost rates for some characteristic subsections along the roadwork site. Nevertheless, there are problem areas in terms of road safety, particularly at the beginning and end of roadwork zones, lane realignment points, carriageway changeover points and temporary slip roads. These characteristic subsections of roadwork zones have an influence on the road safety. The same applies to the impact of how the traffic is routed, the length of the roadwork site or specific road equipment (e.g. road signs against a yellow background).},

ABSTRACT 1 2 Maintaining high levels of safety is essential within the air transport industry because aviation 3 accidents are considered to be low probability but high consequence events. In order to prevent repeat 4 occurrences of the same type of accident, it is important to have an understanding of why they occur 5 and of any underlying trends in contributory factors. Research suggests that occasionally, the 6 implementation of new technologies and procedures within air traffic management can result in 7 unforeseen, negative safety issues. The rising demand for air travel is driving the need to increase 8 global aviation capacity, and this brought about the introduction of Reduced Vertical Separation 9 Minima (RVSM) in 2002 within the UK airspace. There were concerns that its introduction might 10 affect safety levels, however since its implementation there has been virtually no scientific research 11 conducted to evaluate its impact. This research aims to analyse whether aviation safety has been 12 affected by the introduction of RVSM, whilst also understanding the impact that air traffic levels and 13 seasonality might have on future safety levels. This paper uses airprox as a key safety performance 14 indicator. Historical airprox (1999 – 2011) data were obtained from the UK Airprox Board and air 15 travel demand data for the same period were gathered from the CAA. An intervention model based on 16 the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARMA) time-series method was applied to 17 understand the relationship between airprox and air traffic levels, seasonality and the introduction of 18 RVSM. The analysis confirms a strong relationship between air traffic levels and airprox, whilst also 19 discovering that RVSM has a statistically significant relationship with safety levels. The findings are 20 discussed along with an identification of limitations and areas for potential future research.},

abstract = {1 Congestion pricing is an effective management policy to reduce traffic congestion on freeways. 2 This study accounts for the travel time difference and reliability on managed lanes and general 3 purpose lanes in a modified toll rate determination approach recently developed by Cheng and 4 Ishak (4). The original approach is modified by developing an agent-based dynamic feedback-5 control toll pricing strategy that accounts for the trip purpose, travel time reliability, and level of 6 income such that the toll revenue is maximized while maintaining a minimum desired level of 7 service on the managed lanes. An external module is developed to execute the modified strategy 8 in VISSIM and the traffic data generated from VISSIM is exported to a spreadsheet in real-time 9 to calculate the travel time reliability, which in turn used in the route choice process. An agent-10 based modeling was applied to simulate drivers' learning process and estimation of travel time 11 reliability based on their previous commuting experience. In order to illustrate how the modified 12 strategy works, a numerical example is given. The simulation results confirm that under high 13 traffic demand, drivers with urgent trip purpose have the highest probability of choosing managed 14 lanes, and that the travel time on the managed lanes is more reliable than that on the general 15 purpose lanes. A comparative evaluation is given between the modified strategy, the strategy 16 currently deployed on Interstate 95 express lanes, and the original strategy. Compared to the 17 current strategy, the increase in toll rate is steadier and the toll revenue is significantly higher for 18 the modified strategy, while keeping the speed higher than 45 mph. On the other hand, compared 19 to the original strategy, the modified one offers a more realistic approach that accounts for travel 20 time reliability in route choice, as well as generates higher toll revenue under heavy traffic demand. 21},

This 11 method allows for future truck size and weight evolutions over a long-term period for productivity gains, 12 while preserving the existing stock of bridges. 13 The level of efficiency of bridge formulae vary depending on the design criteria used in the 14 development of the formula, the compatibility to the jurisdiction's infrastructure and truck fleet 15 characteristics, and the method of implementation as part of the regulation and by operators in the 16 trucking industry.

An NLCFS based on the average carbon intensity (CI) of all fuels sold in the gasoline and diesel markets generates an incentive for fuel suppliers to reduce the measured CI of their petroleum fuels. Recent work examined the implications of different designs for an NLCFS in terms of compliance costs, credit price volatility, energy security, and possible savings from different credit trading systems for the on-road transportation sector. This paper builds on previous nationally aggregated modeling by taking into account regional differences in the supply, CI, and price of fuels. The impact of California's regional LCFS on compliance costs of an NLCFS is also examined. Significantly different costs are found for compliance by region. At the same time, flexibility mechanisms in terms of credit trading and banking can lower costs substantially.},

abstract = {This paper proposes three enhanced semi-supervised clustering algorithms, namely the Constrained-K-Means (CKM), the Seeded-K-Means (SKM), and the Semi-Supervised Fuzzy c-Means (SFCM), to identify probe vehicle trajectories in the mixed traffic corridor. The proposed algorithms are able to take advantage of the strengthens of topological relation judgment and the semi-supervised learning technique by optimizing the selection of pre-labeling samples and initial clustering centers of the original semi-supervised learning technique based on horizontal Global Positioning System data. The proposed algorithms were validated and evaluated based on the probe vehicle data collected at two mixed corridors on Shanghai's urban expressways. Results indicate that the enhanced SFCM algorithm could achieve the best performance in terms of clustering purity and Normalized Mutual Information, followed by the CKM algorithm and the SKM algorithm. It may reach a nearly 100{\%} clustering purity for the uncongested conditions and a clustering purity greater than 80{\%} for the congested conditions. Meanwhile, it could improve clustering purity averagely by 21{\%} and 14{\%} for the congested conditions and 6.5{\%} and 6{\%} for the uncongested conditions, as compared with the traditional K-Means algorithm and the basic SFCM. The proposed algorithms can be applied for both on-line and off-line purposes, without the need of historical data. Clustering accuracies under different traffic conditions and possible improvements with the use of historical data are also discussed.},

abstract = {2 The Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS), an adaptive signal system designed 3 to reduce congestion, has been installed on a heavily trafficked roadway in Portland, OR. In 4 addition to traffic performance metrics, we are investigating how this system affects roadway 5 emissions of air pollutants. A twenty-second reduction to maximum cycle length was proposed 6 for the SCATS system to address pedestrian delay concerns. A two-week trial period with this 7 reduced cycle length was implemented. Travel times and roadside air pollution concentrations 8 were monitored throughout this study period and compared to before and after periods with the 9 current maximum cycle length. Average travel times were found to be significantly higher during 10 the reduced maximum cycle length, but with a mean difference of only 4-5 seconds for travel 11 time. Assessment of travel time for this roadway suggests that a twenty second decrease in 12 maximum cycle length to help shorten pedestrian delay can be made without significant 13 consequences to travel time. Total traffic volumes were consistent for all four weeks of the 14 study. Meteorological conditions were similar for the first two weeks comparing maximum cycle 15 lengths. A shift in ambient temperature led the second two weeks of the cycle length comparison 16 to have more similar meteorological conditions versus the first two weeks. Average NO and NO 2 17 concentrations were not significantly different for the first half of the study. However, NO and 18 NO 2 concentrations were significantly higher during the reduced maximum cycle length for the 19 second half of the study. When there was a significant difference based on t-test statistics, the 20 measurements did show an increase in roadside concentrations during the shorter maximum 21 cycle length. Preliminary results are unclear if changes to air quality (as assessed by NO and 22 NO 2 concentrations) occur or not due to the reduced maximum cycle length. Results require 23 further comparative analysis in which meteorology and traffic conditions are controlled for so 24 that any difference in air quality due to maximum cycle length alone can be quantified.},

abstract = {1 The public negotiation of transportation policy is often framed by competing mobility-oriented 2 and smart growth-oriented policy advocates' debates over long-term regional traffic congestion. But 3 research evidence is severely lacking on how congestion influences accessibility, one of the most 4 fundamental reasons for cities. The relationships between mobility services and land use patterns and 5 how these, in turn, influence potential accessibility have been studied. However, two key gaps remain: a) 6 identifying the conditions under which better potential accessibility leads to better realized accessibility 7 and b) exploring how congestion influences accessibility. These gaps are important because traffic 8 congestion is potentially a limiting factor which differentiates potentially accessible activities from those 9 in which one can realistically participate based on individual and transportation system constraints. This 10 study uses behavioral utility-based theories to highlight why congestion may influence accessibility and 11 then tests the influence of mobility services and congestion on household trip taking rates using the 2007 12 Chicago Travel Tracker Survey. Results using negative binomial trip count models suggest that travel 13 time unreliability degrades trip taking rates while the influence of slower travel speeds and high volume-14 to-capacity ratios appear to be unimportant. Trip taking rates are imperfect metrics of realized 15 accessibility, as they neither account for other means of participating in activities (e.g. information 16 technology) nor for the 'quality' of activity (e.g. grocers' selections and prices vary). But these findings 17 suggest that, to improve individual accessibility, the current policy focus on travel speeds and time 18 savings may be misplaced and that service reliability should be a much more central policy objective. 19 20},

Nevertheless, some notable failures 5 around the country have resulted in loss of life, economic benefits as well as public trust. To 6 minimize these kinds of negative outcomes, transportation agencies have made efforts to 7 systematically incorporate these asset classes in their asset management systems. However, the 8 challenge is sometimes to identify which asset classes are of higher priority as agencies typically 9 cannot address all assets at once. In the context of the national surface transportation legislation: 10 Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21 st century Act, which emphasizes risk-based asset 11 management, this paper proposes a risk-analysis approach, employing the Delphi method, to 12 prioritize asset classes that are under the jurisdiction of a transportation agency for inclusion into 13 formal asset management programs. A Delphi study was conducted to identify asset classes that 14 pose the highest levels of threat to the goals of a transportation agency and to rank the relative 15 likelihoods of occurrence of these threats. The paper demonstrates that the Delphi method can 16 be used to gather expert opinion to identify and prioritize high-risk ancillary transportation asset 17 classes within a transportation network.},

abstract = {Due to its high capital investment, operating and maintenance cost, a port should be managed as efficiently as possible. Learning from the best practices ports operating under similar conditions is a very useful strategy for maintaining competiveness. Under such a competitive environment, port performance measurement is not only a powerful management tool for port operations, but also constitutes a most informative input for regional and national port planning and operation. Measuring port and container terminal productivity is an interesting issue especially if an automated system across terminals and port is required. Amongst other methods, the efficiency of container port or terminal production can potentially be analyzed by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) or by the Free Disposal Hull (FDH) model. Twenty-five ports from US were assessed. The analysis modeled a port as a decision making unit (DMU) utilizing three major operating inputs, i.e. quay length, gantry cranes, and container yard to produce one major target output, i.e. number of throughput containers. Three main results are presented. First, an efficient frontier or a set of the best practice ports is identified, where inefficient ports may wish to emulate. Second, the sources and extent of inefficiency on which inefficient ports should focus in order to improve their operations are determined. Third, port efficiency is compared among North American ports. The results can be very useful for planning and managing an airport in a competitive multiple-port network.},

Kraft, Park, and Gransberg 2 ABSTRACT 1 In the highway industry, one of the main methods to prequalify a contractor is whether or not a 2 performance bond can be secured from a commercial surety. The current performance bonding system 3 does not differentiate between high-performing and marginal contractors. So if two companies have 4 the same level of financial assets, they have the same ability to furnish performance bonds. This paper 5 details the analysis of the benefits and costs of performance bonds. This paper reports the results of a 6 study based on case studies in five State Departments of Transportation (DOTs): Iowa, Oklahoma, 7 Utah, Virginia, and Washington. Structured interviews were also conducted with members of the 8 construction contracting sector and the surety industry. The paper finds that while average default 9 rates are less than 1.0{\%} and a performance bond adds an average of 1.5{\%} to the cost of every 10 construction project, both DOTs and contractors would be reluctant to eliminate performance 11 bonds from the industry. Therein, lays the paradox: construction project owners are willing to pay 12 an additional 1.5{\%} to protect itself from an event that happens less that 1.0{\%} of the time.},

The advisory speed for an alignment change can be determined by several methods, among which the bubble ball-bank indicator has been used the longest. Newer methods rely upon Global Positioning System (GPS) and other data to establish the ball-bank reading. This paper presents the results of preliminary research effort intended to assess the impact of vehicle types on ball-bank indicator readings and the resulting determination of advisory speed. The authors of this paper used five different types of vehicles ranging from passenger car to pick-up truck to conduct the test through three different advisory speed measurement methods. The authors measured ball-bank readings on a series of alignment changes on a two-lane highway with posted advisory speeds between 20-55 mph. The results indicate that vehicle type does impact the measurement of the advisory speed and that the method used also impacts the results. For a given method, advisory speeds could vary by 5 to 10 mph depending upon the vehicle type. Across measurement methods and vehicle types, advisory speeds could vary by up to 25 mph. The authors also found that there can be differences in the advisory speed for the inside and outside lanes of a highway curve.},

A SHSP and TSAP are both a scientific, data-driven, four to five year comprehensive 4 safety document that is designed to identify a jurisdiction's areas of safety concern known as 5 " emphasis areas " and establish target safety goals (i.e., collision reduction goal(s)) for each chosen 6 emphasis area. However, a TSAP includes additional information, such as network screening 7 results and general safety strategies/programs for each chosen emphasis area. This study discusses 8 the development of a TSAP for a small municipality through a case study for the City of 9 Saskatoon. Many studies investigated selection of emphasis areas and target safety goals for the 10 development of a SHSP, However, there is very few or limited studies that have discussed the 11 approaches specifically for the development of a TSAP for a small municipality. This study used 12 the most recent ten years (2001-2010) of collision data in the City of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. 13 The study provides knowledge for those who wish to develop a TSAP by describing the process 14 and highlighting the challenges in developing a TSAP for a small municipality.},

In this paper we focus towards improving exact solution approaches 5 without targeting to compete against the best solutions provided by heuristics. We devise 6 techniques to improve solution time in an exact approach setting following a cutting plane 7 approach. We relax the subtour elimination constraints known to render the problem intractable 8 due to their exponential nature and progressively append cuts to the original problem. In these 9 cuts we enforce connection between the vertices of the identified subtour and the remaining 10 vertices so that a previously encountered subtour never appears in the course of the algorithm. 11 We introduce additional integer variables for each node providing the number of outgoing and 12 ingoing arcs of the two disjoint sets. We compare our results against classical known 13 formulations and observe that the proposed new approach is dominant in terms of solution time 14 for all instances tested.},

The GPS data were augmented by driver diaries and warehouse and distribution center data records that were designed and used for minimizing respondent burden. Data collection focused on and was made possible through the cooperation of a major grocery chain in the region. In total, 108 trip days of GPS traces were obtained and allowed for the examination of lengthy tours between warehouses, distribution centers, and stores. A descriptive analysis of these tours is included with a focus on the spatial and temporal distributions of activities. From these data, approximately 89{\%} of all activities were major work-based activities, and the number of activities per trip had a local maximum of three, by which 32{\%} of all tours abided.

We attempt to explain these often dramatic differences by controlling for factors 4 known to influence mode choice. 5 We hypothesize that characteristics of the neighborhoods in which many gays and 6 lesbians live (such as high residential density, centrality, and urban form) can explain at least 7 some of their increased propensity to use " alternative " modes of travel. Living in a gay or lesbian 8 neighborhood should further increase the use of these alternative modes of transportation for 9 gays and lesbians, because they enable dense activity patterns focused around the neighborhood. 10 We perform two separate analyses employing two distinct datasets.

In particular, naive Bayesian, Bayesian network, logistic regression, multilayer perceptron, support vector machine, decision table, and C4.5 algorithms are selected and compared for the same data according to their overall error rates and hit ratios. Results show that the Bayesian network has a better performance than the other algorithms in terms of the percentage correctly identified instances and Kappa values for both the training data and test data, in the sense that the Bayesian network is relatively efficient and generalizable in the context of GPS data imputation.},

A bi-level genetic algorithm (GA) based optimization solution methodology is proposed to determine the optimal toll location, toll rate, percentage capacity expansion and location for the expansion simultaneously. The upper-level subprogram is to minimize the total travel time (system cost) given certain budget and toll constraints. The lower-level subprogram is a user equilibrium problem where all users try to find the route that minimizes their own travel cost (or time). The budget constraint is handled using penalty parameter. In this paper, the demand is assumed to be fixed and given a priori. The proposed GA model is applied to Sioux Falls network, which has 76 links and 24 OD-pairs, assuming homogeneous users. The optimal solution is thus identified. Sensitivity analyses are conducted for budget and penalty parameter. The proposed methodology will be a very useful tool for transportation network planners for allocation of budgets and prioritization of links for improvements and congestion pricing.},

A total of 63 amenities in three Chinese communities were 7 selected for the distribution of questionnaires, and 1,682 valid questionnaires were obtained. 8 Second, this paper studied the walking distance decay law of residents' choice of amenity 9 from three aspects, including the law of all amenities, the laws of different types of amenities and 10 the laws of different scales of amenities. It was proved that the walking distance decay laws of 11 different kinds of amenities had a significant difference. Moreover, besides distance, amenity 12 type and amenity scale were also the influencing factors in residents' amenity selection. 13 Third, this study obtained different amenities' acceptable walking distance and optimum 14 walking distance. The distance thresholds of different amenities to support walking can be used 15 for the planning, site selection and evaluation of amenities. 16 Finally, the Binary Logistic model was estimated to describe the relationships between 17 walking distance, amenity type, amenity scale and the probability of one amenity being selected. 18 The calculated probability from the model can be used as the decay coefficient of amenity in the 19 measurement of walkability.},

abstract = {5 The problem of choice set formation for decision makers is an important subject in discrete choice modeling especially 6 when the choice set contains a large number of elemental alternatives. In general, the choice set of an individual 7 could be a randomly sampled choice set; however, this is claimed to be a behaviorally inacceptable practice due to 8 the fallacious assumption of full knowledge of individuals about potential random choices. This brings up the need 9 to come up with methods to logically allocate credible choice alternatives for individuals. While the use of these 10 methods could be dependent upon specific applications, this paper attempts to identify the distinction between model 11 estimation and prediction steps in the context of residential location choice modeling. From a theoretical point of 12 view, the paper proposes a modified weighted stratified sampling approach which is an improved version of random 13 sampling for model estimation. It is believed to be a better replicate of the universal choice set than other sampling 14 methods and it is capable of resulting in consistent estimates even with small sample sizes. Then, the estimated model 15 is applied within a simulation framework using a hazard-based imputed choice set approach for prediction. 16 Introduction and Background},

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the dispersion effect in left-turn bicycle traffic at signalized intersection areas and evaluate its influence on the capacity of left-turn vehicles. Based on a total of 20 h data collected from the city of Nanjing, China, the characteristics of the platoon width of bicycles were investigated. A Poisson model was used to evaluate the contributing factors on the width of platoons. The impacts of platoon width of bicycle traffic on the capacity and delay of left-turn vehicles were estimated. The results showed that the factors significantly impacted the platoon width included the number of left-turn electric bicycles and conventional bicycles arriving in the red time for left-turn phase, and directional factor. Sensitivity analysis showed that the platoon width was the largest when the ratio of electric bicycle was about 60{\%}. An adjustment factor that accounted for the impacts of left-turn bicycles on the capacity of left-turn vehicles was proposed. Increasing the platoon width in left-turn bicycle from 3 to 8 was found to cause about 19{\%} reduction of capacity of left-turn vehicle, whereas around 25{\%} growth of entire capacity of left-turn movements.},

abstract = {1 The aim of this paper is to explore the impact of regional transit service on tour-based commuter 2 travel behavior by using the Bayesian hierarchical multinomial logit model, accounting for the spatial 3 heterogeneity of the people living in the same area. With two indicators accessibility and connectivity 4 measured at the zone level, the regional transit service is captured and then related to the travel mode 5 choice behavior. The sample data is selected from Washington-Baltimore Household Travel Survey 6 (HTS) during 2007-2008, including all the travel from home to workplace in the morning hours in 7 Baltimore city. Traditional multinomial logit (MNL) model using Bayesian approach is also estimated. 8 A comparison of the two different models shows that ignoring the spatial context can lead to an 9 erroneous conclusion of the effects of the regional transit service on travel behavior. The results of the 10 analysis reveal that improving transit service at regional level can be effective in reducing auto use for 11 commuters after controlling for socio-demographics and travel-related factors. This study provides 12 insights for interpreting tour-based commuter travel behavior by using recently developed 13 methodological approaches. The results of this study will be helpful for engineers, urban planners, and 14 transit operators to decide the needs to improve regional transit service and spatial location efficiently. 15 16},

abstract = { Along with rapid economic development in most cities in China comes new planning and construction of transportation infrastructure. Understanding current trends and forecasting future trends with respect to mode choice is imperative to assist decision making on planning and construction of new facilities and infrastructure, since this may or may not be similar to countries in which this infrastructure is already well-established. This paper takes a typical medium-sized Chinese city, Yichang, in Hubei province, as a case study where BRT is under planning, and focuses on forecasting mode choice with the assumption that bus rapid transit (BRT) is in operation. Based on stated preference and revealed preference survey data of 1491 cases, we first conduct descriptive analysis. A nested logit model is adopted to forecast mode choice probability with consideration of several situations describing different levels of service (LOS) of BRT. Stated preference survey results show that if BRT were built, the percent of respondents choosing public transit (bus and BRT) would increase from 55{\%} to 71.3{\%}, whereas the share of taxis and private cars would decrease. The model results suggest that both on-board travel time and cost of BRT influence choice of BRT. The best situation, with highest LOS and lowest cost, results in a highest mode share for public transit.},

abstract = {Emissions inventory calculations for airports, using standard emissions inventory reporting methods, are inflated due an assumption of use of maximum takeoff thrust. To enhance the operational life of jet engines and reduce fuel burn, airlines frequently use reduced thrust (i.e. Derated or Flex Temperature thrust) for the takeoff procedure. Without access to internal airline " load sheet " paperwork or flight data recorders it is not possible to identify the thrust setting for each departure operation and account for the reduced thrust in emissions inventory calculations. This paper describes an approach to estimate the takeoff thrust using a combination of radar surveillance track data, aerodynamic model, and weather data. Groundspeed and rate-of-climb from gear-up altitude to the thrust reduction altitude (1500') are derived from surveillance track data. These values are combined with recorded wind speed data from airport weather data, an estimation of takeoff weight, and a steady-state aerodynamic model, to derive an estimate of takeoff thrust for each operation. Sensitivity analysis shows the importance of the estimate of takeoff weight in the calculations. An approach based on stage-length is used to estimate takeoff weight. A case study for flights from Chicago O'Hare airport exhibited an average takeoff thrust of 86{\%} of maximum takeoff thrust. The implications and limitations of this approach are discussed.},

abstract = {Double crossover diamond (DCD) interchanges, also known as diverging diamond interchanges, are popular and promising alternative interchanges that are increasingly being implemented nationwide. One unique feature of a DCD interchange is that through movements on the arterial road have to cross each other twice to complete their movements, while enabling left-turn movements from the arterial to the freeway to proceed without stopping at the downstream intersection. Consequently, interchanges with heavy left-turn movements arc good candidates for DCD implementation. This unique feature of a DCD interchange means that there is a need to research lane utilization at the upstream approach intersection of DCD interchanges, as the lane use could be unbalanced. This unbalanced lane utilization could have a significant effect on operations at the first crossover and the interchange as a whole. This study examined lane utilization factors provided in the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 (HCM) for conventional diamond interchanges and found that they arc not generally applicable to DCD interchanges. The study then proposed a lane utilization model calibrated with field data obtained at three DCD sites. The new model fit observed conditions at the DCD sites better than previously developed HCM factors. The model was then validated with three additional DCD interchanges, and validation results confirmed that the new model adequately predicted DCD lane utilization. The authors recommend that DCD interchange designers and analysts use the new model where it is applicable but also that more research be conducted to find lane utilization factors for other DCD configurations.},

Ring transit lines were found to be an important factor in network topology and the improvement of transit network efficiency and reliability. Cities that had ring rail transit services were assessed. Parameters that justified the implementation of a rail transit network in a city, particularly a ring line, were analyzed through the investigation of cities that had implemented such services. Ring lines were seen to be less popular in North America than in Europe and Asia. A highly concentrated central business district surrounded by remote residential neighborhoods would make circumferential travel less appealing than in larger and mixed land-use city centers with several cross-town activity centers. Further regression analyses were conducted to investigate the relevant parameters for the length of a ring rail transit line. Arguably, a ring transit line can improve the connectivity and directness of a transit network and thus improve transit ridership.},

Did public transit-related attitudes differ by gender in general and by status group (faculty, staff, and students)? This research aimed to address these questions. The analysis was based on data collected from the 2012 campus transportation survey at Ohio State University. The survey questionnaire covered individuals' sociodemographic characteristics, commute mode choices, and attitudes toward driving and taking public transit, including reliability, safety, flexibility, convenience, accessibility, and comfort. After the descriptive analysis of perceptions that were segmented on the basis of gender and status (faculty, staff, undergraduates, and graduate students), binary logit models were estimated to assess the influences of individuals' attitudes on transit use while controlling for other factors. First a binary logit model measuring the effects of respondents' status (student, staff, or faculty), car ownership, ethnicity, proximity to bus stops, and distance to campus was estimated. Then respondents' attitudes were added to the existing model. Results indicated that including attitudes significantly increased the explanatory power of the model, and the results revealed the significant connections between attitudes related to public transportation and public transit use. The findings of this study can help transportation planners understand the ways attitudes affect transit use and the differences across genders. Although the study used data from Ohio State University, the findings can help in developing plans for increasing alternative transportation use on other campuses, as well as in surrounding areas.},

The proposed approach divides 3 a long signalized arterial into subsystems of coordination based on clustering 4 results considering factors such as block distance and turning movements. Each 5 subsystem is optimized to achieve the maximum bandwidth efficiency. Evaluation 6 of the system includes two parts, THOS (through opportunity) comparison and 7 simulation evaluation. The motivation of system partition is to overcome the 8 capacity limitation that may exist for the progression band of the entire corridor. 9 Clustering method is used to produce reasonable partitioning points that turn out to 10 be intersections with heavy turning volumes or further away from the adjacent 11 intersections. Afterwards, two case studies are presented to illustrate how the 12 proposed approach can be applied, and the influence of system partition on 13 corridor performance is presented with comparison of scenarios with different 14 ways of partitioning. Evaluation of the case study shows that system partitioning 15 method may be beneficial in improving progression bandwidth, bandwidth 16 efficiency, bandwidth attainability and THOS. In some situations, better corridor 17 performance was achieved by partitioning the corridor into two or three parts, but 18 in some other conditions the performance may not improve because of the 19 additional control delay and stops at the partitioning points.

A master list of completed HIAs was used to identify transportation-related HIAs. Five HIAs were examined in detail in which there were substantial interactions between public health and transportation professionals during and after the HIA. Fifty-seven transportation-related HIAs conducted in 19 states between 2004 and 2013 were identified. Topics included projects such as road redevelopments, bridge replacements, and development of trails and public transit, and policies such as road pricing, transit service levels, speed limits, complete streets, and safe routes to schools. The selected case studies included HIAs of San Francisco road pricing policy, a Seattle bridge replacement, new transit lines in Baltimore and in Portland, and the Atlanta Beltline transit, trails and parks project. The HIA recommendations led to decision changes in some cases and helped raise awareness of health issues by transportation decision makers in all cases. HIAs are now used for many topics within transportation. The range of involvement of transportation decision makers in conducting HIAs varies. The case studies presented may serve as models for the conduct of future transportation-related HIAs because transportation agency involvement may increase the likelihood that an HIA will influence subsequent decisions.},

abstract = {Dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) can be used to model impacts of traffic control plan scenarios on travel behavior. However, using DTA for modeling construction project impacts is limited by the computational time required to simulate entire roadway networks. DTA modeling of a subarea surrounding these work zones extracted from a larger network can decrease the overall run time. A particular issue of interest is estimating dynamic demand along the boundary of the selected subnetwork. Often demand at the subnetwork boundary is based on flows extracted from a full, base network analysis. However, it is likely that impacts within the subnetwork caused by traffic control plans will extend beyond the boundary and affect this demand. The use of a logit model to reassign demand at subnetwork boundary centroids on the basis of differences in internal (subnetwork) travel times between base and impact scenarios is presented. The proposed methodology was implemented by using several software programs linked through automated scripts. The method's implementation and the results from a case study are presented. Implementing the logit formulation was found to provide better estimates of subnetwork demand, specifically along the boundary, when compared with use of a fixed demand table extracted from the vehicle trajectories of the full network model under base conditions. Ultimately, the findings were encouraging and suggest that the strategy could enhance the accuracy of subnetwork demand estimation.},

abstract = {This paper describes the development of a hybrid reidentification algo-rithm to estimate travel times entirely on the basis of data that are readily available from single loop detectors (60-Hz vehicle occupancy data) without the need for additional hardware in the field. The key concept is data fusion, which combines crude and potentially inaccurate spot-point estimates with a software-based signature-matching algorithm. The method was applied to real data from an urban freeway site with four loca-tions and six segments, with Bluetooth-matched travel time as the ground truth. The method performed satisfactorily, with a relative error of 9{\%} for a segment 1.54 mi long, among others. It removed bias and improved the baseline spot-speed method significantly. The approach requires mini-mum calibration with no additional hardware. The method, therefore, proves suitable for widespread deployment and provides a clear path for agencies to leverage their existing loop and controller infrastructure for accurate travel time estimation through reidentification. Traffic data collection has traditionally been performed by public agencies charged with managing traffic flow, responding to incidents, performing planning activities, and maintaining roadways. Traditional techniques include inductive loop detectors, closed-circuit television cameras, and other surveillance devices that are deployed to monitor conditions on roads within their jurisdictions. Traffic surveillance has typically been based on the use of loop detectors to calculate select measures such as point-based average speed–travel time and occupancy. Although these measures are assumed to be representative of the portions of the roadway between detector stations, this assumption generally fails whenever the road-way becomes congested or an incident occurs. This state of affairs is even worse along arterial facilities where the movement of traffic is broken up by traffic signals and thereby makes the use of average speeds for computing travel times highly inaccurate. Limitations in the usefulness of loop detector–based point data have spurred interest in the development of vehicle reidentification technologies and analysis, which match unique vehicular signature data at successive detector stations and thereby enable the generation of travel time information. These approaches can be divided into deterministic and stochastic techniques, as outlined in Figure 1. Deterministic technologies rely on simply matching unambigu-ous tags between locations. Examples of these tags include license plates (1–3), electronic toll collection tags, or Bluetooth media access control addresses (4–12). Stochastic techniques, in contrast, rely on approximate matching of " signatures " (any measured feature vector of a vehicle) between locations. In Figure 1, these techniques are further divided into those based on new hardware and commu-nication infrastructures and those that use existing hardware with only upgraded software and communication protocols. The former include loops with high-speed scan detector cards, blade loops, or both (13–18); electromagnetic sensor dots (19); and video. The latter include double loop (20–23), single loop (24–26), or weigh-in-motion stations (27, 28). Among these techniques, those that use the existing loop infra-structure in the field have the appeal of low cost of deployment. Standard controller cards for loop detectors sample traffic at a rate of 60 Hz. However, they typically do not transfer detailed informa-tion to the traffic management center. Instead, they calculate and then aggregate values such as volumes and occupancies at up to 30-s intervals before sending these data to the central processing system. Past approaches to loop-based vehicle reidentification have focused on creating more sophisticated controller card hardware that samples at rates of 20 to 100 kHz (15–18). While these approaches can create high-resolution signatures of vehicles for matching, they are difficult to deploy on large scales because they require the replacement of controller cards with new, expensive hardware. This paper presents a technique for using data generated by existing loop detectors to create a vehicle reidentification algorithm that can be implemented in software at a centralized location. The research conducted as part of this project used 60-Hz loop data samples (from existing infrastructure) and data fusion techniques to create a software-based signature-matching algorithm. The core strength of this approach is that it creates a clear path toward widespread deployment: it can be implemented in software at a centralized loca-tion. Thus, agencies will be able to leverage their existing loop and controller infrastructure for reidentification. The later section on methodology describes the proposed technique in detail. The section on applications discusses the experimental setup, including the site and details on the data collected. The section cov-ering results presents the outcome of the application and discusses various factors to consider in deployment. The final section presents future research opportunities.},

abstract = {Travel time is probably one of the most studied attributes in route choice. Recently, perception of travel time received more attention as several studies have shown its importance in explaining route choice behavior. In particular, travel time estimates by travelers appear to be biased against non-chosen options even if these are faster. In this paper, we study travel time perception and route choice of routes with different degrees of road hierarchy and directness. In the Dutch city of Enschede, respondents were asked to choose a route and provide their estimated travel times for both the preferred and alter- native routes. These travel times were then compared with actual travel times. Results from previous studies were confirmed and expanded. The shortest time route was chosen in 41 {\%} of the cases while the perceived shortest time route was chosen by almost 80 {\%} of the respondents. Respondents overestimated travel time in general but overestimated the travel time of non-chosen routes more than the travel time of chosen routes. Perception of travel time depends on road hierarchy and route directness, as more direct routes and routes higher up in the hierarchy were perceived as being relatively fast. In addition, there is evidence that these attributes also influence route choice independently of perceived travel time. Finally, travel time perceptions appear to be most strongly biased against non-chosen options when respondents were familiar with the route or indicated a clear preference forthe chosen routes. This result indicates that behavior will be more difficult to change for the regular travelers},

A striking aspect is that it is now widespread among different segments of the population, including suburban and rural households. This growth has generated significant demand for dedicated delivery services to end consumers. Pickup points (PP) represent a fast-growing alternative to home delivery, accounting for about 20{\%} of parcel deliveries to households. The article focuses on the strategy of PP network operators. Our results are threefold. We have documented the recent development of alternative parcel delivery services to e-shoppers in Europe, and especially in France. We have described how the operators have decided to organize their PP network, identifying main variables and constraints. We have provided an analysis of the spatial distribution of PPs in France. The paper shows that at the French national level, PPs are now a well established alternative to home deliveries and their presence covers urban, suburban and rural areas. While PP density in remote areas decreases faster than population density, rural e-consumers' accessibility to PP sites has reached a viable level. Furthermore, PP delivery services generate new types of B2B freight trips that are not yet included in current urban freight models. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {While many studies evaluate travel behavior associated with specific elements of transit-oriented development (TOD) with varying conclusions, most assess built environment factors in isolation, preventing a comprehensive understanding of the interrelated nature of the fabric of transit-oriented communities. Our research begins to address this gap by accounting for the “level of integration” between transit and the built environment. We aim to identify key factors associated with integration as a first step towards developing composite measures that account for level of integration. As a means of testing the level of integration concept, we also assess the importance of various integration factors in explaining the travel behavior of station area residents. We evaluate areas served by light rail transit in the Denver Metropolitan Area. In studying Denver, we provide much-needed insights into “second-generation” light rail systems in cities characterized by auto-dependence. We develop four final models in order to identify those variables that best explain four travel outcomes: car ownership, vehicle miles traveled, and use of LRT and alternative modes. The explanatory variables included in the models represent those that are most important for consideration in future measures of integration. Three variables appear to hold the most promise: Miles of bicycle facilities, pedestrian shed (the percent of the area within ½-mile of stations that can be walked along the network in ½-mile), and access to “other” amenities. Results of our analysis also clearly indicate that socio-demographic variables and self-selection effects must be accounted for in future investigations of the effects of level of integration. While the variables used in the present analysis are helpful in exploring the viability of a “level of integration” measure, they do not represent perfect measures. Future work will develop more nuanced composite measures of integration, and will test the effects of these measures on travel behavior using more sophisticated modeling techniques. Ultimately, we expect that station areas with characteristics representative of high levels of integration between transit and the built environment are more likely to foster positive travel outcomes},

For the former, it seems to be one of 3 the key factors in modal choice, especially for commuters; while in the latter, a trade off exists 4 among capacity, reliability, and punctuality increase, which may lead to better rail network 5 utilization, even without significant infrastructure improvements. Existing methods for reliability 6 estimation are currently not able to adequately represent system behavior; as they simply 7 consider the number of trains within given delay thresholds, and completely neglect delay 8 distribution, which actually plays an important role for both passengers' quality perception and 9 line capacity estimations. Moreover, these estimations are often based on arrival time at terminal 10 stations, with no consideration of delays at intermediate stops. This paper showcases a new 11 reliability index that is based on the shape of trains' delay distribution. When compared to 12 existing methodologies, such index may lead to results that better represent the real effects of 13 punctuality on railway operations; moreover, the proposed reliability index can be applied to 14 either a line or a railway node.

abstract = {Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is getting a lot of interest from vendors pushing the new light sources such as light emitting diode (LED), induction, and plasma for roadway lighting applications. Before adopting the new lighting technologies, INDOT intended to determine if the new lighting technologies meet required light performance and if they are cost effective, particularly with the existing lighting poles. Moreover, it is necessary for INDOT to establish standardized guidelines for evaluating the new lighting technologies prior to the formal adoption. To address these issues and gather first hand data, INDOT initiated a study to evaluate the total performance of these new lighting technologies. This paper presents the field evaluation of light performance with both conventional and high mast roadway lightings. Several luminaires, including LED, plasma and induction luminaires were selected to replace the existing high pressure sodium (HPS) lamps in both conventional and high mast lightings. Illuminance measurements were made over on both the existing and new light sources to identify light distributions. Light performance metrics, including illuminance level and uniformity ratios, were calculated to make quantitative comparisons between the light performances of the HPS and new light sources. Such information will be useful to state highway and city street agencies in making decisions on their lighting policies and developing technical specifications for use of the new lighting technologies in roadway and street lightings. Also, such information is useful for manufacturers to improve their luminaire design and integration to better fit the needs of roadway and street lightings.},

abstract = {The operational planning of classification yards in China is complicated because of their high through-puts. To attack the complexity, the yard planning is often divided into three parts, railcar connection (also called wagon-flow allocation in China), yard track occupation, and yard engine utilization. This paper concentrates on the railcar connection plan, which decides the assignment of railcars from inbound trains to outbound trains and the makeup of each outbound train. Different from existing railcar connection models, a new railcar connection model is proposed to consider various size limitations of outbound trains, such as the railcar number, length and weight of trains, and to allow dynamic sequencing of inbound train classification and outbound train assembly. A heuristic algorithm based on the harmony search strategy is proposed to solve the dynamic railcar connection model with multiple train size limitations. The numerical results based on a real-world case and randomly created instances show the proposed solution method can provide better railcar connection plan in a small amount of computational time. The results also show that the dynamic sequencing significantly outperforms the static one regarding connection efficiency.},

A number of things can 4 be learned from the annual O{\&}M costs incurred by the existing streetcar and light rail transit 5 (LRT) systems operating in North America. First and foremost among these is that modal 6 average 'unit costs' for O{\&}M can be very misleading. The range in O{\&}M costs per passenger-7 mile (the most objective overall measure of the cost of providing transportation service per unit 8 of service actually consumed) varies by almost two orders of magnitude (from about 12 cents to 9 almost 6 dollars), and substantial variances exist within individual modes due to the factors 10 mentioned above. 11 12 For LRT and streetcars, there are some significant economies of scale that drive down the O{\&}M 13 unit costs (per passenger-mile) between very small and very large systems.

It 2 affects travel patterns of the adult household members in order to accommodate dropping-off or 3 picking-up children to/from the school. There have been previously suggested approaches to modeling 4 joint travel arrangements between adults and children with respect for escorting. However, examples 5 of an implementation of such models in the framework of an operational Activity-Based Model (ABM) 6 are limited. This paper focuses on an explicit modeling of escorting children to school by adults and 7 takes into account possible " bundling " of escorting tasks in households with multiple children. The 8 developed model is included as part of the regional ABM system currently being developed for the 9 Maricopa Associations of Government (MAG), AZ. Such a model allows for constraining the travel 10 schedules for workers who tend to escort children on their way to and from work. It has important 11 policy implications since workers who escort children to and/or from school are very restricted in 12 changing their departure times to/from work and switching to transit which is not evident otherwise. A 13 choice model is formulated and estimated for each household by outbound (to school) and inbound 14 (from school) escorting needs which are dependent on the number of school children, options of 15 bundling children for escorting on one tour, and number of available chauffeurs in the household. 16 17},

abstract = {Over the past half century, government agencies in Mexico City have invested heavily in high-capacity public transit, particularly the 225-km Metro system. Nearly all of this investment has been in central locations of the metropolis. Only recently has service coverage been extended into the periphery, which has accounted for the majority of postwar metropolitan population growth. The Metro's Line B, which opened in phases in 1999 and 2000, significantly expanded Metro coverage into the densely populated and fast-growing suburban municipality of Ecatepec. Comparing travel behavior and land use measures at six geographic scales, including the investment's immediate catchment area, across two time periods-six years before and seven years after the investment opened-this paper investigates the effects of one of the first and only suburban high-capacity transit investments in Mexico City. While the investment sparked a significant increase in local Metro use, most of this increase came from people relying on informal transit, rather than cars. This shift reduced average transit expenditures and travel times for local residents. However, it also increased government subsidies for the Metro and had no apparent effect on road speeds. In terms of land use, the investment increased density around the stations but appears to have had little to no effect on downtown commercial development, where it might have been expected to have a significant influence. In short, the effects of Line B demonstrate much of the promise and problem with expanding high capacity transit service into the suburbs. Ridership is likely to be high, but so too will be the costs and subsidies, while the effects on car ownership and urban form are likely to be modest. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; Walking facilities are important infrastructures in communities. These facilities should be designed to accommodate the needs of all types of pedestrians. Unfortunately, existing design guidelines fail to offer adequate consideration for individuals with disabilities due to a lack of empirical data. To begin to fill that knowledge gap, a controlled large-scale research project was conducted at Utah State University (USU) to study the walking behavior of people with various types of disabilities in various walking facilities. These facilities include passageway, different types of angles (right and oblique), bottleneck, and stairwells. The purpose of this paper is twofold: to examine the impacts of individuals with disabilities on crowd walking speed and to study the impacts of different walking facilities on the movements of various pedestrian groups. Results show that the presence of individuals with disabilities in a crowd significantly reduces the crowd speed. Statistical analysis also reveals similarities and differences between the walking speeds of various pedestrian groups. A regression model is also calibrated to predict the speed of various types of pedestrians in different walking facilities. The findings of this paper may aid urban planners and walking facility designers in understanding the needs of people with low mobility.},

abstract = {While traffic planning is important for developing a hurricane evacuation plan, vehicle performance on the roads during extreme weather conditions is critical to the success of the planning process. This novel study investigates the effect of gusty hurricane wind forces on the driving behavior and vehicle performance. The study explores how the parameters of a driving simulator could be modified to reproduce wind loadings experienced by three vehicle types (passenger car, ambulance, and bus) during gusty hurricane winds, through manipulation of appropriate software. Thirty participants were then tested on the modified driving simulator under five wind conditions (ranging from normal to hurricane category 4). The driving performance measures used were heading error and lateral displacement. The results showed that higher wind forces resulted in more varied and greater heading error and lateral displacement. The ambulance had the greatest heading errors and lateral displacements, which were attributed to its large lateral surface area and light weight. Two mathematical models were developed to estimate the heading error and lateral displacements for each of the vehicle types for a given change in lateral wind force. Through a questionnaire, participants felt the different characteristics while driving each vehicle type. The findings of this study demonstrate the valuable use of a driving simulator to model the behavior of different vehicle types and to develop mathematical models to estimate and quantify driving behavior and vehicle performance under hurricane wind conditions.},

Correlation between the discrete (number of vehicles) and the continuous (total annual miles traveled) parts is captured with a full variance-covariance matrix of the unobserved factors. The model system is estimated using Simulated Log-Likelihood methods on data extracted from the 2009 US National Household Travel Survey and a secondary dataset on vehicle characteristics.

abstract = {Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system is becoming a popular public transport system to mitigate 42 urban traffic congestion. Despite its booming growth, many researches on improving its 43 performance and operations are still in their infancy. Reasonably and accurately assigning 44 multiple docking bays and sub-stops for different bus routes at the station to ensure effective 45 and efficient BRT operation management is a great challenge. In Guangzhou BRT (GRBT) 46 system, bus bunching or queuing at stations is the major cause of traffic congestion which 47 reduces the quality of service and lowers operation management level. This study is motivated 48 by the urgent need to change such a situation. The study firstly proposes a combinatorial 49 optimization model to assign multiple sub-stops and docking bays for different bus routes at 50 the station (BCOM). The objective of the proposed method is to minimize the probability of 51 bus queuing at BRT station. And then, a novel genetic algorithm (NGA) to obtain the 52 suboptimal solution of BCOM is put forward. After that, we analyze the operating data from 53 GBRT system. Finally, a simulation tool for GBRT system based on VISSIM (GBRTSM) has 54 been developed to evaluate the proposed solution. The simulation and application results 55 demonstrated that the proposed solution can decrease bus queuing length at GBRT station 56 effectively, and reduce the service saturation of sub-stop, bus dwell time and travel time 57 simultaneously. Our research provides a useful and practical solution for improving 58 performance and operations of GBRT system, ensuring effective and efficient GBRT system 59 operation management.},

abstract = {China's climate and energy policy commitments are stated at the national level, but they may have uneven impacts on the country's regionally heterogeneous transport system. This work quantifies the expected provincial-level response of freight transport to an economywide policy targeting reductions in carbon emissions intensity. The analysis applies the China Regional Energy Model, a multisector, static, global, computable general equilibrium (CGE) model representing 30 individual provinces with physical accounts of energy and greenhouse gas emissions. The structure of road and nonroad freight (and passenger) sectors, the preparation of transport activity data, and a policy similar to announced goals that specify a 17{\%} reduction in the carbon dioxide emissions intensity of gross domestic product are described. In the national aggregate and in most provinces, the road freight sector is most affected by the emissions intensity cap. The road freight sector contributes 24{\%}—versus 18{\%} from nonroad freight and 51{\%} from nontransport sectors—of a 5.1{\%} reduction in national refined oil demand. Significant regional differences are found in the impacts of a national-level, economywide policy. Steep reductions in freight activity occur in some of the poorest provinces, partly because they offer low-cost abatement opportunities, and the resulting adjustments across the economy affect transport demand. This research contributes a new tool capable of capturing the transport impact of sector- and province-specific policies in detail and providing a rigorous foundation for future dynamic CGE analyses. Potential impacts of energy and climate policy on regional transport systems are important inputs to policy and infrastructure investment decisions at the central and local levels.},

abstract = {1 2 In this paper, we provide an equivalent mathematical programming (MP) formulation for modeling demand 3 elasticity and route overlapping in the stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) problem. The elastic demand establishes 4 the equilibrium between supply function and demand function based on microeconomics. Because the elasticity of 5 demand is an important factor in predicting the future demand pattern and avoiding the potential biased assessment 6 in transportation planning, it is necessary to endogenously model the elasticity of travel demand. The route 7 overlapping problem is handled by the paired combinatorial logit (PCL) model while retaining the analytical 8 tractability of the logit choice probability function. The PCL SUE model with elastic demand (PCL-SUE-ED) 9 explicitly models the elasticity of travel demand and the effect of route overlapping on travel choice and route 10 choice simultaneously. A path-based partial linearization algorithm is also developed for solving the PCL-SUE-ED 11 model. In addition, a self-regulated averaging (SRA) line search strategy is incorporated into the algorithm to 12 minimize the computational efforts required to determine a suitable stepsize that guarantees convergence. Numerical 13 results are provided to examine the features of the PCL-SUE-ED model as well as the efficiency of the path-based 14 partial linearization algorithm.},

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) will be released in the first quarter of 2014 related to measures and calculation procedures with the effective date for all measurement areas of spring 2015. Because the NPRM will be out soon, it is timely for transportation agencies to begin to think about the benefits of having a set of performance measures for purposes other than satisfying MAP-21 requirements. Now is a great opportunity for transportation agencies to understand how performance management can improve their agency operations. The authors have experience with mobility analyses for a number of national, state, and local sponsors, which has provided them the opportunity to observe some common results as they relate to MAP-21's upcoming requirements. This paper has the objective of providing guidance and lessons learned related to calculating congestion-related performance measures and related considerations. This paper is intended to allay some fears and identify some opportunities brought by MAP-21 with a focus on those aspects of MAP-21 anticipated to have the closest association to mobility and reliability (e.g., system performance, congestion mitigation/air quality, freight).

It is assumed that the value of the demand between each pair of origin and destination is a constant and the construction costs of each potential link addition follow a certain stochastic distribution. In this paper, a bi-level and stochastic programming model for the discrete network design problem is proposed. The construction costs of potential links are assumed as random variables and mutually independent with each other in this model. The upper-level model is a chance constrain model with the objective function of minimizing the total travel costs in the network, and the lower-level model is a user equilibrium model. The stochastic model is then transformed into a deterministic one. A branch-and-bound solution algorithm is designed to solve the deterministic model in an efficient way. At last, a computational experiment is conducted to illustrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the approach proposed in this paper. The results show that the stochastic model is more flexible and practical compared with the deterministic one.},

The implementation of a geographically covered DRT system for the transportation of persons with disabilities in Flanders in the prediction years 2015, 2020 and 2030, was applied. A microscopic simulation of the demand of persons with disabilities for transportation, spatial and temporal effects taken into account, was applied over the whole service area, in order to obtain a detailed overview of all transportation requests that need to be processed by each individual service provider. Specific travel data of persons with disabilities (with specific disability-related attributes) were collected by means of a survey that was distributed among 344 persons with disabilities. Next, a separate vehicle routing plan was created for each service provider for both a weekday and weekend day, resulting in the required number of vehicles and vehicle kilometers. The results of the Flemish application show that the new DRT system seems unaffordable for the society, despite the applied optimization methodology.},

Na??ve estimates of MWTP, however, may be biased as a result of spatial dependence, spatial correlation, and/or spatially endogenous variables. In this paper we discuss a class of spatial autoregressive models that control for these spatial effects, and apply them to sample data collected for the Atlanta, Georgia housing market. We provide evidence that a general-to-specific model selection methodology that relies on the generality of the spatial Durbin model (SDM) should be preferred to the classical specific-to-general methodology that begins with an assumption of no spatial effects. We show that applying the SDM raises the estimate of MWTP for transit proximity in Atlanta but also widens its confidence interval, relative to ordinary linear regression. This finding may have implications for risk estimations in land value capture forecasts and transportation policy decisions.},

The limited storage space between the two closely joined intersections coupled with heavy traffic volumes may easily oversaturate the facility and cause spillback problems, especially with the presence of frontage roads. This paper presents an innovative design and operational model for SDI by dynamically reversing certain lanes in the internal link on a regular basis with the deployment of overhead reversible lane control signs. A Binary-Mixed-Integer-Linear-Program (BMILP) is formulated to simultaneously optimize lane markings, dynamic usage of the reversible lane, and signal timings for the new SDI system. Results from extensive numerical analyses reveal the promising property of the proposed design and operational model in expanding capacity and reducing congestion at the SDI with frontage roads.},

abstract = {The paper explores the spatial and social impacts arising from implementation of a road-pricing scheme in the Madrid Metropolitan Area (MMA). Our analytical focus is 5 on understanding the effects of the scheme on the transport accessibility of different social groups within the MMA. We define an evaluation framework to appraise the accessibility of different districts within the MMA in terms of the actual and perceived cost of using the road infrastructure 'before' and 'after' the implementation of the scheme. The framework was developed using quantitative survey data and qualitative 10 data from focus group discussions with residents. We then simulated user behaviors (mode and route choice) based on the empirical evidence from a travel demand model for the MMA. The results from our simulation model demonstrated that implementation of the toll on the orbital metropolitan motorways (M40, M30, for example) decreases accessibility most in the districts where 15 there are no viable public transport alternatives. Our key finding is that the economic burden of the road-pricing scheme particularly affects unskilled and lower income individuals living in the south of the MMA. Consequently lower income people reduce their use of tolled roads and have to find new arrangements for these trips: i.e. switch to the public transport, spend double the time 20 for their commuter trips or stay at home.

ABSTRACT: Benefit from modern V2I technologies, more accurate information about individual vehicles is now available, making it possible to operate signal timing more intelligently. Based on the provided information of vehicles near intersection, this paper presents a platoon-based signal timing algorithm for an isolated intersection with four phases, which aims at reducing the average delay for vehicles passing by. First of all, the basic concept " key platoon " is defined. We are able to determine such a platoon according to the information of 5 each individual vehicle obtained from V2I devices, like distance and speed data of each vehicle. Then two important processes in the control algorithm, state prediction and decision assessment, are discussed in detail. State prediction provides data for decision assessment by estimating the state of the next cycle. Decision assessment is carried out by calculating two assessment functions, named G and L, with the prediction results from state prediction. Finally, the average travel time (ATT) of the intersection is introduced to measure and the 10 performances of the proposed and actuated control algorithms. The comparative results by applying these two algorithms are presented, showing that the proposed algorithm works better than the fully actuated ones in reducing ATTs for vehicles, especially in situations with one or two major phases.},

abstract = {As existing activity-based models of travel demand simulate activity travel patterns for a typical day, dynamic models simulate behavioral response to endogenous or exogenous change along various time horizons. Prior research predominantly addressed a specific kind of change, which usually affected a specific time horizon. In contrast, the current study aims to develop a dynamic model of activity travel decisions that links short- and long-term adaptation decisions in a hierarchical manner. Specifically, this study focuses on the bottom-up process of influence, in which problems with rescheduling on a daily basis may induce a long-term change. The authors assume that travelers will first explore short-term adjustments of their habitual activity travel patterns so as to cope with change and increasing stress. Only when travelers recognize that such adaptation strategies are ineffective will they consider long-term decisions. The proposed framework integrates three key concepts: aspiration, activation, and expected utility. Moreover, both rational and emotional mechanisms are taken into account The study demonstrates model properties by using numerical simulation. Individual travelers are represented as agents, each with their cognition of the environment, habits, preferences, and aspirations. The results offer insight into the dynamics of traveler learning-adaptation and into the evolution of long-term decisions.},

abstract = {Mobile technologies are generating new business models for urban transport systems, as is evident from recent startups cropping up from the private sector. Public transport systems can make more use of mobile technologies than just for measuring system performance, improving boarding times, or for analyzing travel patterns. Unlike earlier studies on mobility credits, a new transaction model is proposed for public transport systems where travelers are allowed to pre-book their fares and trade that demand information to private firms. In this public-private partnership model, fare revenue management is outsourced to third party private firms such as big box retail or large planned events (such as sports stadiums and theme parks), who can issue electronic coupons to travelers to subsidize their fares. This e-coupon pricing model is analyzed using marginal cost theory and shown to be quite effective for monopolistic firm participation, particularly for demand responsive transit systems that feature high cost fares, non-commute travel purposes, and a closed access system with existing pre-booking requirements. However, oligopolistic scenarios analyzed using game theory and network economics suggest that public transport agencies need to take extreme care in planning and implementing such a policy. Otherwise, they risk pushing an equivalent tax on private firms or disrupting the urban economy and real estate values.},

abstract = {Imputation of activity travel sequences from GPS data is dominantly based on epoch-level characteristics and land use data. This study showed that the accuracy of GPS data imputation can be improved by enforcing consistencies in transportation mode use across the day. In particular, a new algorithm was proposed to reduce misclassification error in imputed activity travel diaries. The suggested algorithm iden-tified a hierarchical set of tours and superimposed logically consistent transportation modes at the tour level. Three methods, which maintain some degree of consistency while allowing different transportation modes within a tour, were examined. Method 1 identified the most probable transportation mode for each trip episode separately and then com-pared the modes across all segments of the tour. Method 2 selected the most probable mode across the whole travel episode. Method 3 selected the most likely main mode in the intermediate portion of a tour as the mode in all trip segments. All methods imputed transportation mode based on the highest number of epochs for which the predicted prob-ability of that mode was the highest. The algorithm was examined by using GPS data recently collected in the Netherlands. Results showed that the new algorithm significantly improved the imputation accuracy of transportation modes. The enhanced algorithm, which partly relaxed the strict assumption of consistency, yielded results even closer to reality. The use of GPS devices and GPS-enabled smartphones for collecting activity travel data has been shown to significantly reduce respondent burden and capture trips and activities unreported in conventional sur-vey methods (1). Nevertheless, the accuracy of the imputed agenda highly depends on the performance of data-processing algorithms. Wide-ranging differences in success have been reported in the liter-ature (2). Because imputation algorithms are not perfect in the sense that imputed data do not necessarily completely match the true data, a prompted-recall survey is often viewed as the remedy. Prompted-recall surveys ask respondents to verify and if necessary correct the imputed activity travel diaries. However, prompted-recall instru-ments involve extra effort and consequently the time gains of using GPS devices are partially lost. Moreover, results of prompted-recall surveys are not necessarily error-free either. Improving the accuracy of imputation algorithms is therefore still highly opportune. It is beneficial not only in terms of improving the ease of verification but also in terms of developing fully automated data imputation systems. Various imputation algorithms have been applied to infer activity travel patterns, ranging from ad hoc rules (3–5) to advanced clas-sification methods (6–8). In general, activity and travel episodes are identified first. Next, transportation modes between two consecutive activity episodes are inferred. The key factors in this process are speed-related variables that discriminate between different transportation modes. Inference becomes problematic when multiple transportation modes have similar speed values, which is often the case in congested urban areas. The advanced learning algorithms that have been devel-oped and applied (8, 9) have the advantage that they can identify transportation modes and activity types simultaneously and recognize transportation modes based on conditional probabilities between vari-ables. However, similar to other algorithms, these algorithms focus on individual epochs only rather than on the whole activity travel sequence. Thus, commonly used algorithms tend to only partially use the available information. The consistency of the imputed activity sequence with respect to transportation modes has been scarcely addressed. Stopher et al. presented a process to test and improve the named G-To-Software system in a large-scale household travel survey (10). The system is composed of four components: preprocessing, trip identification, mode detection, and purpose detection. Tour information is used in the mode detection module to reduce unrealistic bicycle and bus trips from within a tour that is mainly undertaken by car or walking. The tours were specified for two trips or three-plus trips in which unrealistic mode sequences were corrected with one consistent mode. For example, the walk–bicycle and bicycle–car combinations are replaced with walk–walk and car–car, respectively. A mode string of walk–bicycle–walk will be changed to walk only and car–bicycle–car will be changed to car only. Although reasonable, the approach is ad hoc and lacks theoretical support for its reason-ing. Moreover, its application might be limited to situations of more complicated mode combinations and increasing number of modes within the sequence. A more fundamental and systematic approach is therefore warranted. The issue here is that existing algorithms tend to examine indi-vidual epochs of short duration (1 s to 1 min) to impute transportation modes. However, a substantial amount of empirical evidence sug-gests that the number of multimodal daily trips, tours, and patterns is limited (11–13). People tend to use the same transportation mode for the same tour (11). Moreover, they tend to use the same mode for},

This study explores the role of values in citizen perceptions. The case study is Canada's proposed Northern Gateway Pipeline (NGP), which would transport bitumen from Alberta's oil sands to British Columbia's (BC) northern coast for export. Data were collected in 2013 from a sample of Canadian citizens (n=2628). The survey instrument elicited citizen perceptions of the NGP, as well as values and attitudes. Respondents in the Alberta subsample are the most likely to support the NGP and to perceive economic benefits. Respondents in the BC subsample are the most likely to oppose the NGP and to perceive environmental risks. To explore heterogeneity in motivations among both subsamples, respondent clusters are constructed based on values. In both regions, opposition is highest in clusters with strong biospheric-altruistic values, while acceptance is highest in clusters with strong traditional values. Regional effects are also substantial; NGP acceptance is higher in each of Alberta's clusters relative to equivalent clusters in BC. Regional context seems to shape how values correspond with perceptions. Insights are drawn for energy project development, public consultation and energy planning.},

This study uses data from 2004 surveyed Montreal cyclists to generate a multidimensional cyclist typology based on seven factors derived from 35 variables, mostly proven determinants of the intensity of bicycle usage. The analysis revealed four distinct cyclist types: dedicated cyclists, path-using cyclists, fairweather utilitarians, and leisure cyclists. The cycling frequencies of each group respond differently to potential interventions and vary within commuting rate ranges with apparent minima and maxima. Building a network adapted to different cyclist types and emphasizing its convenience, flexibility and speed, could be an effective strategy to increase cycling mode share and frequency among the various groups. Findings from this study can be of benefit to transportation engineers, planners and policy makers as they help in better understanding the impacts of various interventions on the different groups of cyclists.},

abstract = {As vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication technologies evolve, data from vehicles equipped with location and wireless technologies will provide a wealth of data to observe the traffic flow dynamics more precisely. Data from a sample of instrumented vehicles (called probe vehicles) can be used to estimate performance measures for the remainder of the traffic stream. The research presented in this paper attempts to estimate the total fuel consumption and CO2 emissions at a signalized intersection from the data provided by probe vehicles. Traffic flow through an intersection is simulated to generate vehicle trajectories under both congested and uncongested conditions. Six different vehicle types are modeled in the simulation for the purpose of calculating fuel consumption levels. By using the Virginia Tech Comprehensive Power-Based Fuel Consumption Model (VT-CPFM), the total fuel consumed by each vehicle is determined for a given trajectory. Several alternative methods are presented to estimate the total fuel consumption from the sample data provided by the probe vehicles. The results show that a simple extrapolation of the fuel consumed by probes to the rest of the traffic does not yield very accurate results. A more accurate solution is obtained by capitalizing on the probe trajectories to construct trajectories for the non-probe vehicles. For the simulated conditions, it is demonstrated that the total fuel consumption can be estimated with a reasonable accuracy at relatively low probe-vehicle market-penetration levels. It is further demonstrated that if a proper “average vehicle” is specified for estimating the total fuel consumption level then, knowing the make {\&} model of individual probe vehicles does not enhance the estimation accuracy. The research presented in this paper will be of benefit to data collection systems for supporting eco-signals and other similar applications to improve fuel consumption and to reduce CO2-emissions that are directly proportional to the fuel usage.},

abstract = {This paper examines the capacity of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) to reduce energy 1 consumption within the transportation sector. Research includes a literature review focusing on the 2 energy-saving capacity of ITS technologies and interviews with ITS stakeholders and transportation 3 experts and practitioners. In addition, a case study of an ITS project in Portland, Oregon is included to 4 demonstrate challenges and opportunities associated with implementing ITS technologies. The objective 5 of this paper is to document the state of knowledge and practice and to create a resource for future action 6 and implementation of ITS technologies with energy savings as a goal. Overall, there is a distinct lack of 7 empirical evidence to substantiate the capacity of ITS to reduce energy in the transportation sector. 8 However, research indicates that ITS implementations have contributed toward reductions in vehicular 9 delay, but that further benefits may be limited. In contrast, ITS implementations do have the potential for 10 reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMT) with significant benefits, but there is uncertainty about this. The 11 shortage of empirical evidence of ITS benefits may be a function of the limited interest in the energy and 12 environmental benefits of ITS relative to that of congestion and safety. In the ITS industry, the present 13 focus is on the Connected Vehicle initiative and, more broadly, the many opportunities to integrate and 14 leverage multiple ITS applications. Here, there is an opportunity to deploy ITS technologies with the 15 explicit purpose of reducing energy consumption within the transportation sector, to document any gains, 16 and address the lack of evidence supporting the energy-reducing capacity of ITS. 17 18 INTRODUCTION 19 20 In the U.S., transportation is the second largest consumer of energy (28{\%}). Only electric generation is a 21 larger contributor (41{\%}); the other major sectors are industrial (21{\%}) and residential/commercial (10{\%}) 22 (1). Economic and environmental imperatives drive interest in reducing energy consumption. Increased 23 concern about climate change and global warming have brought focus to transportation strategies that 24 reduce energy consumption and the associated emissions. 25 Many analyses adopt a four-fold framework of transportation options: vehicles, fuels, operations 26 and behavior. Innovations in vehicle and fuel technologies offer very large long-term benefits but have 27 limited potential for realizing immediate energy reductions. The Urban Land Institute's 2009 Moving 28 Cooler report helped organize professional thinking about operations and behavior, both of which can 29 achieve near-term reductions in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (2). 30 As construction of the interstate highway system concluded in the late 1980's, interest grew in 31 advanced technologies and their potential to enhance the performance and productivity of the nation's 32 massive infrastructure investment. Promoters primarily emphasized the benefits of Intelligent 33 Transportation Systems (ITS) in terms of reducing congestion and increasing safety. ITS refers to the 34 integrated application of advanced electronic communication technologies and management strategies to 35 improve the safety and efficiency of the surface transportation system (3). 36 Over the last ten years, attention has shifted somewhat from the technologies themselves to the 37 strategies they enable, generally referred to as Transportation System Management and Operations 38 (TSMO). These strategies range from arterial management to incident response and are frequently multi-39 modal. By emphasizing the greenhouse gas reduction potential of operations, Moving Cooler helped 40 establish ITS as an important strategy for energy and climate goals (2). 41 More recently, the emergence of smartphones and " big data " has helped make ITS more relevant 42 to the fourth part of the framework: behavior. Increasingly, vehicles can communicate with the 43 infrastructure and with each other. Hand-held and in-vehicle devices generate massive amounts of data. 44 The web and mobile applications turn those data into information that travelers can use to manage their 45 travel behavior, potentially with the result of reducing energy consumption and emissions.},

This methodology has the capability to calibrate simultaneously all the 37 calibration parameters as well as demand patterns for any type of network. Global and local 38 parameters were considered as well as performance parameters for driver behavior and vehicles. 39 Demand patterns, in terms of turning volumes, were included in the calibration framework. The 40 primary contribution of this paper is the simultaneous consideration of multiple performance 41 measures, such as link counts and speeds, while calibrating all model parameters across various 42 time periods. This represents a very comprehensive approach for the calibration of simulation-43 based microscopic traffic flow models. Previous studies claim to consider all model parameters. 44 However, they do not consider multiple performance measures simultaneously. In addition, in 45 the experimental framework, most of them used pre-calibrated parameters and demand patterns. 46 A Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation algorithm was used to search for the 47 vector of the model's parameters that minimizes the difference between actual and simulated 48 network states. The simultaneous consideration of all model parameters and multiple 49 performance measures was motivated by issues associated with convergence and stability. The 50 effects of changing the values of the parameters were taken into consideration to adjust them 51 slightly and simultaneously. This resulted in a small number of evaluations of the objective 52 function. Three networks were calibrated with excellent results. The first network was an arterial 53 network with link counts and speeds used as performance measurements for calibration. The 54 second network included a combination of freeway ramps and arterials, with link counts used as 55 performance measurements. The third network was an arterial network, with time-dependent link 56 counts and speed used as performance measurements. The experimental results illustrate the 57 effectiveness and validity of this proposed methodology. The same set of calibration parameters 58 was used in all experiments.},

A ship stock turnover model was developed to track technical and operational efficiency practices in ships independently. The findings indicated that industry-leading ships were about twice as efficient as industry laggards across major ship types. If the available technical and in-use practices of the low-carbon industry leaders of today were fully embraced, the potential would exist to reduce carbon dioxide in absolute terms by more than 300 million metric tonnes by 2040, even while business-as-usual freight movement doubled. On the basis of the data in this assessment, the potential exists to develop a tool for shippers to quantify, evaluate, and compare their supply chain carbon footprints in a manner that does not rely on more aggregated fleet-average simplifications. The methodology, data, and findings of this study should benefit industry as it looks for ways to reduce energy consumption; researchers, who are examining ship operation; and policy makers, who want to curb the climate impact of international shipping.},

abstract = {The paper compares two different approaches to estimate travel time losses on freeways based on a whole-year analysis. Both approaches are intended to improve the design process for freeways by accounting for the annual traffic demand profile as well as short time variance of demand and capacity. One approach estimates breakdown probability and delay related time losses based on 6 a probabilistic model. The other approach uses a Monte-Carlo simulation to estimate travel time losses at freeway bottlenecks based on a queuing model with stochastic demand and capacity. Both approaches are based on annual hourly demand profiles. The approaches are compared for different demand profiles and deliver similar, but not equal results. Travel time losses for both approaches increase exponentially with traffic volume, with the simulation-based approach consistently generating higher time losses for higher traffic volumes. Both approaches are a substantial improvement on current design procedures, easy to apply and are recommended for adoption in traffic analysis guidelines.},

abstract = {This paper implements and tests a label-setting algorithm for finding optimal hyperpaths in large transit networks with realistic headway distributions. It has been commonly assumed in the literature that headway is exponentially distributed. To validate this assumption, the empirical headway data archived by Chicago Transit Agency are fitted into various probabilistic distributions. The results suggest that the headway data fit much better with Loglogistic, Gamma and Erlang distributions than with the exponential distribution. Accordingly, we propose to model headway using the Erlang distribution in the proposed algorithm, because it best balances realism and tractability. When headway is not exponentially distributed, finding optimal hyperpaths may require enumerating all possible line combinations at each transfer stop, which is tractable only for a small number of alternative lines. To overcome this difficulty, a greedy method is implemented as a heuristic and compared to the brute-force enumeration method. The proposed algorithm is tested on a large scale CTA bus network that has over 10,000 stops. The results show that (1) the assumption of exponentially distributed headway may lead to sub-optimal route choices and (2) the heuristic greedy method provides near optimal solutions in all tested cases. ?? 2014 Elsevier B.V.

ABSTRACT 1 Uncertainty is inherent to transport models and prevents from using a deterministic approach 2 when modelling traffic. Quantifying uncertainty thus becomes an indispensable step to 3 produce more informative and reliable output of transport models. Within traffic assignment 4 models, volume delay functions express the travel time as a function of traffic flows and 5 theoretical capacity of the modelled facility. The US Bureau of Public Roads (BPR) formula 6 is one of the most extensively applied volume delay functions in practice. This study 7 investigated uncertainty in the BPR parameters. Initially, BPR parameters were estimated by 8 analyzing observed traffic data related to the Danish highway network. Then, BPR parameter 9 distributions were generated by using re-sampling Bootstrap technique. Finally, the generated 10 parameter vectors were used to implement sensitivity tests on the four-stage Danish national 11 transport model. The results clearly highlight the importance for modelling purposes of 12 taking into account BPR formula parameter uncertainty, expressed as a distribution of values 13 rather than assumed point values. Indeed, the model output demonstrates a noticeable 14 sensitivity to parameter uncertainty. This is particularly evident for stretches of the network 15 with a high number of competing routes. Model sensitivity was also tested for BPR parameter 16 uncertainty combined with link capacity uncertainty. The resulting increase in model 17 sensitivity demonstrates even further the importance of the implementation of uncertainty 18 analysis as part of a robust transport modelling process.},

A more flexible approach was introduced by David Hensher in 1970s, yet this 40 is characterised by far more demanding requirements in terms of modelling individual travel 41 behaviour, activity choice, and productivity. 42 However, a recent contribution by the authors, in form of a microeconomic framework 43 of in-travel activity choice and productivity, has demonstrated that it is in principle possible 44 to infer in-travel behaviour using a microeconometric framework which offers the possibility 45 of a tractable operationalisation of Hensher's approach. 46 In the current paper we use data from the United Kingdom Study of Productive Use of 47 Rail-time 2009 to compare values of employers' savings in business travel time (VEBTT) 48 estimated using sample data and microsimulation-inferred values based on in-travel activity 49 choice and productivity framework (termed PPS framework), as well as to cost-saving 50 approaches and currently used appraisal values. 51 We conclude that there exists some discrepancy between the values derived directly 52 from the sample and from the microsimulation due to imperfections in inferences of various 53 parameters propagating and cumulating in calculations of the actual VEBTT. In terms of 54 comparing the Hensher and cost-saving approaches, the former results in negative VEBTT 55 indicating that employers may not gain from reducing travel time. We suggest that perhaps 56 improvements in-travel working conditions and productivity could be more beneficial in 57 certain contexts than marginal reductions in travel time. 58 59},

abstract = {1 2 Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are considered as a promising technological solution for decreasing 3 dependency on fossil fuels and reducing transport-generated greenhouse gas emissions. Currently, the 4 number of HEVs in the market remains limited, but this picture will change in the coming years as HEVs 5 are likely to pave the way for cleaner technologies in transport. This paper investigates the fuel efficiency 6 of commercial HEVs and compares their performance with respect to standard gasoline vehicles. The 7 effect of different factors on fuel efficiency is also studied including road driving conditions (city vs. 8 highway), temperature, speed and cold-starts. For this study, fuel consumption data in real-world driving 9 conditions from a sample of 74 instrumented vehicles is used, 24 of which are HEVs. Among other 10 results, the beneficial fuel efficiency merits of hybrid vehicles are demonstrated in particular in low 11 speeds in urban (city) driving conditions. Despite the significant energy benefits of HEVs, the particularly 12 low temperature associated with the winter season is identified as one of the critical factors negatively 13 affecting their performance. This is an important aspect to take into account in cold North American cities 14 with very long winters and many days of low temperatures. 15 16},

Trip-level GHG emissions 3 are estimated combining origin-destination (OD) survey, vehicle fleet and transit ridership data. A 4 simultaneous equation model framework is then implemented to investigate the link between the BE, 5 socio-demographics, and transport-related GHGs. The effect of fuel efficiency scenarios on the bus 6 and motor-vehicle fleet is determined and investigated using an econometric approach that takes into 7 account residential self-selection. Also, the potential impact of emerging green technologies 8 (introduction of hybrid buses and fuel efficient cars) is determined and compared to those relating to 9 BE initiatives in the different cities. Our findings are consistent with the literature. More specifically 10 we have found that built environment (BE) attributes have a statistically significant effect on GHG 11 emissions. For instance, a 10{\%} increase in population density will result in 3.5{\%}, 1.5{\%} and 1.4{\%} 12 reduction in Montreal, Quebec and Sherbrooke, respectively. Also, household GHGs are importantly 13 associated with socio-demographic characteristics such as number of full-time and part-time workers, 14 income, presence of retirees and children with positives and negative effects. . Moreover, average 15 GHGs and elasticities among neighborhoods are much greater than those observed across cities. This 16 highlights the importance of neighborhood impacts by combined BE indicators. In terms of the 17 technological impacts, it is found that by replacing the transit fleet by electric trains and hybrid buses 18 in Montreal, the share of transit GHGs would decrease by 32{\%}; however, this reduction will be 19 marginal in the overall emissions – a similar situation is observed in the other two cities. With respect 20 to the private motor-vehicle fleet, if current fuel efficiency trends persist, the constant improvement of 21 car fuel consumption economy would reduce GHGs by 7{\%} (Montreal), 5{\%} (Quebec City) and 8{\%} 22 (Sherbrooke) by the year 2020. According to our results, the only the combined effect of BE strategies 23 and private-motor vehicle technological changes would have significant reductions on emissions in 24 the short term.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; Multimodal transportation is encouraged in recreational areas, particularly non-motorized modes that provide people with the opportunity to be physically active while sustaining the natural environment. Accessibility is an important indicator of transportation performance, because it addresses how transportation solutions are tailored to their contexts; however performance measures related to accessibility are rarely addressed in the literature. This study develops an accessibility measurement framework for pedestrians and bicyclists in parks and recreation areas, and applies it to the recreational area in Mill Creek Canyon, Utah. Data collection, mapping of potential origins and destinations, and proposed accessibility measurements were performed using on-site visits, Google Earth and ArcGIS. Pedestrian and bicyclists requirements for path width, speed, and acceptable travel time were adopted from existing transportation policies and guidelines. The analyzed results showed that accessibility for bicyclists is higher than the overall pedestrian access, and the potential need for improved trail connectivity. Destinations that are too densely spaced in recreational areas are likely to result in increase of vehicle-miles-traveled (VMT), noise, and emissions through an area. Accessibility criteria used in urban environments are not directly applicable to recreational areas, so additional research is needed to determine the exact values of proposed measures that would indicate good or poor accessibility for non-motorized modes. Decision makers could further use these measures to properly evaluate quality of service for pedestrians and bicyclists, as they are broadly applicable to recreation areas of different sizes and flexible enough to grow into accessibility guidelines with further research expansion.},

abstract = {The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) has added MnPASS High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes on two freeway corridors in the Twin Cities. While not the first HOT lanes in the country, the MnPASS lanes are the first implementation of road pricing in Minnesota and possess a dynamic pricing schedule. Tolls charged to single occupant vehicles (SOVs) are adjusted every 3 min according to HOT lane vehicle density. Given the infancy of systems like MnPASS, questions remain about drivers' responses to toll prices. Three field experiments were conducted on the corridors during which prices were changed. Data from the field experiments as well as two years of toll and traffic data were analyzed to measure driver responses to pricing changes. Driver elasticity to price was positive with magnitudes less than 1.0. This positive relationship between price and demand is in contrast with the previously held belief that raising the price would discourage demand. In addition, drivers consistently paid between approximately {\$}60–120 per hour of travel time savings, much higher than the average value of time. Reasons for these results is discussed as well as the implications these results have on the pricing of HOT lanes.},

As a test of this concept, this paper develops a procedure for determining directional splits for street segments that were counted bidirectionally – a common practice in many locales. The concept hinges on being able to find the inverse of very complex travel time/volume functions that are typical of streets with traffic controls, such as signals and stop signs. The procedure was applied to a sizable " window " within the Milwaukee WI highway network. The procedure performed well when using theoretically-derived speeds, but less well when using actual speeds from floating car runs and from a commercial GPS navigation vendor. Nonetheless, it can be concluded that enough valid information can potentially be obtained from speed databases to warrant further research and application of the concept.},

abstract = {The rise in private car use in recent years has led to a dispersal of activity centres and an associated challenge in providing public transport to meet the needs of a large section of the population. Governments now see public transport as important in meeting an ever expanding range of public policy goals, but costs in providing bus services are increasing amidst economic uncertainty. There is a need for new cost-effective modes of transport that can operate effectively in areas where demand levels are lower and more dispersed. Such modes include Demand Responsive Transport (DRT), an intermediate form of public transport, encompassing a whole range of service delivery options. However, unlike for buses, less research has been carried out to determine how, why, when and where DRT services will function effectively. The primary objective of this paper is to examine the potential use of DRT services. This included the development of a forecasting framework for a new DRT service on a transport corridor. Forecasts for these services were generated from a stated preference based survey of over 400 respondents in urban (Rochdale, Manchester) and rural (Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire) areas in the UK. DRT modal share forecasts have been generated that show a greater DRT propensity for current bus users than those with access to a car. Model estimations reinforce the importance of price on modal choice, including motoring costs and the fare levels for DRT and bus services},

States have become 8 increasingly interested in using travel time data from private sector vendors to generate this 9 information since this data set offers the ability to obtain condition information over a wide area 10 without deploying any sensor infrastructure. 11 This paper summarizes lessons learned about using private sector data to develop project-12 level work zone mobility performance measures based on experiences in Virginia. A series of 13 case studies are used to show considerations in using private sector data to develop delay and 14 queue length performance measures at four sites. Issues related to the spatial and temporal 15 granularity of the data are discussed, as well as the ability of the data to reflect performance at 16 urban and rural sites. The experience and insight s shown in this paper can help guide agencies 17 to better construct new mobility performance measurement programs using this data source.},

abstract = {12 Pedestrian and bicycle crossings may need to be protected from right turns as well as left turns in 13 situations where there are high right turn volumes or speeds. The right turn volume threshold at which a 14 protected crossing is appropriate can be still smaller for cycle track crossings. This paper explores a 15 phasing scheme in which right turns as well as left turns have their own phase. The crossing runs at a 16 different time from the turn phases, yet concurrent with the parallel vehicular through phase. This 17 " protected-yet-concurrent " phasing scheme is far more efficient than using an all-ped phase. A general 18 framework for sequencing phases accounting for the right turn – crossing conflict is shown using four 19 rings instead of the usual two. Seven examples of protected-yet-concurrent phasing from the U.S. and the 20 Netherlands are used to illustrate the scheme and to characterize its likely impacts in terms of delay and 21 street footprint. Overall delay and footprint impacts are found to be modest; factors that affect the impact 22 of protected phasing include complexity of the phasing plan, coordination, and the possibility of using 23 phase re-service. Because protected-yet-concurrent phasing makes efficient use of time, it is also 24 economical with space. While it requires right turn lanes, its use can reduce the needed number of through 25 lanes, especially in comparison with all-ped phasing. 26 27 Where a bike path (cycle track) runs along the right side of a road, there is a conflict between through-28 going bikes and right-turning traffic, just as there is between pedestrians and right turns. The conflict can 29 either be permitted (turning vehicles advance on a green ball while the crossing phase is timing and are 30 expected to yield to through bikes and pedestrians) or protected. Protected phasing, meaning conflicting 31 turning movements are not allowed to run concurrently, can be provided either through an all-ped phase 32 (assuming bikes are allowed to use it), or by giving right turns, like left turns, their own signal phase, 33 governed by turn arrows and running at a different time than the crossing. In this latter scheme, the 34 crossing phase usually runs concurrently with a parallel through traffic phase, which presents no conflict 35 with the crossing. For this reason it may be called " protected-yet-concurrent " phasing. 36 Permitted conflicts with right turns are generally considered acceptable for pedestrian crossings 37 as long as the geometry forces right turns to be made at low speed and the right turn volume is acceptably 38},

abstract = {A number of economic, technical and political factors have limited the development of new, dedicated, very-high-speed rail systems in North America. Consequently, most, proposed, near-term development of improved or expanded passenger rail service in the U.S. will involve use of existing railroad infrastructure or rights of way. Comprehensive understanding of train accidents on shared-use corridors is important for rational allocation of resources to reduce train accident risk. Nevertheless, little research has been undertaken to quantify the risk of a passenger train operating on or next to a freight train in a shared track or shared-use corridor setting. Train accident data from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Rail Equipment Accident database were analyzed to examine the effects of different accident causes on the risk of passenger train accidents on shared rail corridor. Derailments and collisions were identified as the most potentially significant train accident types while human factors accidents and track failures were the primary causes of those accidents. Comparisons of freight and passenger train accidents show that some causes related to human factors are relatively more frequent for passenger trains, while infrastructure-related causes are relatively more prevalent for freight trains. The research described in this paper presents the initial results of a study intended to understand and quantify the most important contributors to the risk of train accidents on shared- use rail corridors. This work can be used to better understand how to most efficiently and effectively manage the risk on shared-use rail corridors.},

The study contributes to activity pattern literature by estimating the Scaled Multiple Discrete Continuous Extreme Value model (MDCEV) model for non-workers and workers with a comprehensive set of activity purposes. The analysis allows us to examine the influence of individual socio-demographics (such as person age, gender, employment status) and household socio-demographics (such as household structure). Further, observed and unobserved effects of the year of data collection are also explicitly considered in our analysis enabling us to examine trends in activity participation across the years while controlling for various attributes. The results provide evidence that our proposed approach provides an appropriate framework to study activity participation decision process evolution in time. Further, we undertake a trend analysis and illustrate how baseline utility for various activity purposes changes for various demographic groups across the years.},

Thus, optimizing lor reliability has seen growing interest in the recent past in transportation and also in the fields of computer science, stochastic optimization, and so forth. The present study addressed reliability optimization under uncertainty, in which travel time distributions were represented with a sample. The weighted mean-standard deviation measure (robust cost) was adopted as a metric of reliability. The minimum robust cost path problem with link travel times following a general correlation structure was addressed. A sampling-based approach, which had been relatively unused, was adopted from the literature to capture and represent spatial correlations. A novel network transformation and pruning procedure was proposed to determine an exact solution to the problem while circumventing the high dimensionality of the formulations in the literature. Computation experiments demonstrated the efficacy of the algorithm on real-world networks. The impact of the sample approximation on finding the true optimal solution or the population was quantified and found to be acceptable.},

Using one-quarter mile distance-bands from light rail stations 7 out to one and one-half miles, we evaluate variations in response according to small and 8 conventional lot size categories. Controlling for structural, neighborhood and location 9 characteristics, we find a generally positive relationship between TRAX station proximity and 10 residential values out to one and one-quarter miles. However, a negative impact is captured for 11 lots located in the core station area. Variations in value are present in the different lot size 12 categories, and implications for planning transit-supportive neighborhoods are offered.},

abstract = {Carsharing programs that operate as short-term vehicle rentals (often for one-way trips before ending the rental) like Car2Go and ZipCar have quickly expanded, with the number of US users doubling every 1-2 years over the past decade. Such programs seek to shift personal transportation choices from an owned asset to a service used on demand. The advent of autonomous or fully self-driving vehicles will address many current carsharing barriers, including users' travel to access available vehicles. This work describes the design of an agent-based model for shared autonomous vehicle (SAV) operations, the results of many case-study applications using this model, and the estimated environmental benefits of such settings, versus conventional vehicle ownership and use. The model operates by generating trips throughout a grid-based urban area, with each trip assigned an origin, destination and departure time, to mimic realistic travel profiles. A preliminary model run estimates the SAV fleet size required to reasonably service all trips, also using a variety of vehicle relocation strategies that seek to minimize future traveler wait times. Next, the model is run over one-hundred days, with driverless vehicles ferrying travelers from one destination to the next. During each 5-min interval, some unused SAVs relocate, attempting to shorten wait times for next-period travelers. Case studies vary trip generation rates, trip distribution patterns, network congestion levels, service area size, vehicle relocation strategies, and fleet size. Preliminary results indicate that each SAV can replace around eleven conventional vehicles, but adds up to 10{\%} more travel distance than comparable non-SAV trips, resulting in overall beneficial emissions impacts, once fleet-efficiency changes and embodied versus in-use emissions are assessed.

This, among other issues, prevents transportation agencies' building assets from being efficiently maintained and, therefore, failures may occur and discontinue employees' operations and activities. Thus, to maximize the use of the available funding, it is compelling to create innovative tools and techniques capable of estimating how potential failures can affect employee's activities and, eventually, transportation system users. Facility managers and decision-makers could then use such estimates to make decisions on maintenance of building assets that will minimize the risks of disruptions to employees and transportation system users. Among the Washington State Department of Transportation's (WSDOT) capital assets, Transportation Equipment Fund (TEF) shops are crucial in ensuring timely and effective care and maintenance of the majority of the state vehicles and equipment. Therefore, any disruption of TEF shop facilities' operations could significantly affect not only WSDOT's vehicles and equipment maintenance but also the department's ability to fulfill its core mission. Given the importance of TEF shops, this exploratory case study investigates the failures that have occurred or are likely to occur in these facilities, and employs discrete event simulation to quantify the consequences of such failures on the shop activities and road users.},

This paper addresses the stochastic route flow estimation problem and the associated sensor location problem. A hierarchical linear Bayesian model is developed, where the real route flows are assumed to be generated from a Multivariate Normal distribution with two parameters: " mean " and " variance-covariance matrix " . The prior knowledge for the " mean " parameter is described by a probability distribution. When assuming the " variance-covariance matrix " parameter is known, a Bayesian A-optimal design is developed to select the best subset of links to locate sensors on.},

Based on the data obtained from a household survey in a medium-sized city in China, the travel activities in a whole day were classified into several types of trip chains. The multinomial logit (MNL) model was used to estimate the impacts of factors on the choices of trip modes which included walk, bike, public transit, and car. The entropy theory was brought in to evaluate the amount of uncertainty related to the mode choice decision for each traveler. The results showed that the mode choice decisions were quite different between commuting and non-commuting trip chains. The contributing factors and their impacts were found to be different between different chains. In commuting chains, the choice of car had the largest amount of uncertainty while the choice of public transit had the least uncertainty. In non-commuting chains, the bike choice had the largest uncertainty while the walk choice had the least uncertainty. Findings were discussed to help understand the decision process of mode choices between commuting and non-commuting trips.},

abstract = {The traffic assignment problem (TAP) is a key element of many urban transport models. Given trip demand in the form of a matrix indexed by origin and destination, TAP assigns flow to the traffic network to achieve a user equilibrium where no individual traveler may reduce their trip cost by changing route. Many iterative algorithms have been developed to solve TAP; these are usually initialised by all-or-nothing assignment where all flow is assigned to shortest paths, disregarding congestion. We develop a new method of initialization based on the solution of a simplified traffic as signment problem formed by aggregating origin and destination nodes. This simplified problem can be solved in a fraction of the time needed for the original problem. The user equilibrium of this aggregated problem can then be mapped onto the space of path flows of the original traffic assignment problem. With a suitable choice of aggregation the time required for an iterative TAP algorithm to converge can be greatly reduced. Including the time taken for initialization, our method gives convergence in some cases more than twice as fast as from all-or-nothing initialization. We also propose methods for the automatic aggregation of origins and destinations. Our results show that the performance of path-based TAP algorithms is strongly dependent on the choice of initial solution.},

The main goal of connected 41 vehicle is to employ advanced information and communication technology (ICT) to mitigate traffic 42 congestion, reduce incidents and potentially save the environment.

This research 46 quantifies the performance of such a system under different scenarios including different congestion levels 47 and market penetration of connected vehicles subject to non-recurrent congestion, e.g., lane closure due an 48 incident. The findings of this research indicate that connected vehicle has the potential to reduce travel 49 time by 37{\%}, reduce emissions by 30{\%} and improve safety indicators by 45{\%}. It also shows that market 50 penetration of connected vehicle has the most significant impact on the performance of the traffic network.},

abstract = {Signalized crosswalks are considered an important pedestrian facility, where the pedestrian flow possesses unique characteristics. This study used an improved cellular automaton model, which incorporated social forces to describe the interactions between pedestrians, to model the bidirectional pedestrian flow at a crosswalk. The simulation model was capable of estimating crossing time for various levels of pedestrian demand. The observation field data extracted from the video record validated the model's ability to estimate average crossing speed. It also found that pedestrian crossing time and speed are correlated to pedestrian demand. In addition, the proposed model presented the characteristics of pedestrian flow at the crosswalk visually and showed that the interaction between the conflicting flows contributed to an increase in crossing time and a reduction in crossing speed. The benefits of this model can be used to assess the design of signalized crosswalks, including their geometry and pedestrian cycle length.},

abstract = {1 The recently completed California Household Travel Survey (CHTS) was the largest and most complex 2 household travel survey ever undertaken by a single state. The CHTS started with an initial goal of 3 60,000 completed households, had a complex governing structure that included all of the metropolitan 4 planning organizations in the state as well as multiple state agencies, was intended to address multiple 5 modeling needs, had multiple subregional goals within the overall statewide sample, used three types of 6 GPS instrumentation, offered multiple response options and collected travel every day for a full year. 7 Six years in the planning and execution, the survey was conducted by a consortium of state 8 agencies and transportation planning entities, led by the California Department of Transportation 9 (Caltrans) and including key funding partners such as the Southern California Association of 10 Governments (SCAG). The survey effort faced unique challenges, ranging from maintaining cooperation 11 of the funding partners to meeting the desires of all participating agencies, whether or not they provided 12 funding, for collecting myriad types of data while at the same time trying to keep the survey length short 13 enough so that potential respondents would participate. At the end of the survey, most participating 14 agencies describe the cooperative, statewide approach as a success, but there were many lessons to be 15 learned from this experience. 16 This paper discusses the lessons learned from the CHTS and provides conclusions to inform 17 future surveyors and assist them in avoiding the same problems and issues. Lessons learned are provided 18 in the following areas: cooperative funding; survey priorities; schedule; public outreach; contract 19 flexibility; incentives; respondent burden; separate surveys for separate purposes; staff continuity; and, 20 periodic or continuous surveys. 21 The overall conclusion on the part of almost all agencies involved in the CHTS was the statewide 22 survey effort was successful in terms of leveraging scarce state and local resources to achieve a survey 23 that was more comprehensive than what any of them could have accomplished independently. All parties 24 felt the CHTS governance structure should be considered as a model for future collaborative surveys. 25 The lessons learned in all areas provide suggestions on how to avoid the problematic issues that arose 26 during the CHTS and form a solid foundation for the success of future shared funding approaches to 27 household survey data collection.},

Compared to the traditional observation method, this automatic calculation method extracts key characteristics of hysteresis loop directly from the network flow-density data. This method improves the efficiency to characterize hysteresis loop by identifying the direction of hysteresis loop, starting point and ending point of the hysteresis loop, and the maximum average network flow. To test this automatic calculation method, the macroscopic fundamental diagram for urban freeway network in Milwaukee is presented in this study.

Stein and Sussman 2 ABSTRACT 39 40 Within public policy and academic discourses, high-speed rail (HSR) is presented as a way of 41 achieving " smarter " or more sustainable forms of growth. Realizing this promise requires 42 coordinated policy efforts across levels of government and at different moments along a project's 43 timeline. The research presented here makes use of a systems perspective to study the barriers to-44 and opportunities of inter-jurisdictional HSR planning. The paper draws on interview material 45 with officials involved in the Portuguese and United Kingdom HSR planning processes. 46 Uncertainty is found to be of significant relevance to the manner in which national and 47 local or regional governments interact. Those interactions in turn affect the realized physical 48 reality of the HSR network and its integration into existing land use and transport systems. The 49 paper examines two sources of uncertainty—uncertainty of outcomes and the uncertainty of a 50 multi-actor inter-jurisdictional system of control. 51 Case studies are used to explore how existing processes and evaluations mechanisms 52 affect the level to which local knowledge and initiatives are incorporated into iterative HSR 53 system design. The research additionally reveals how initial conditions can be important 54 determinants of HSR success by shaping a system's ability to adapt to realizations of currently 55 uncertain futures. 56 The paper concludes by offering two approaches to building a HSR implementation 57 process that successfully incorporates HSR-supportive local and regional policies. The 58 approaches combine formal inter-jurisdictional planning commitments with informal coalition 59 building, to together enhance HSR's ability to achieve its full potential. 60},

abstract = {The time that bases spend waiting for passengers to board can be a significant portion of a bus route's overall running time. A key determinant of boarding time is the number of doors through which passengers are permitted to hoard. Transit agencies that allow boarding through all doors, instead of just through the front door, typically enjoy decreased boarding times and decreased running times. This study focused on the feasibility of an all-door boarding policy for La Soci{\'{e}}t{\'{e}} de transport de Montr{\'{e}}al (STM), the public transit agency of Montreal, Canada. The potential benefits of such a policy were assessed through three main steps. First, a selection methodology was developed to determine which of STM's bus routes would benefit most from various all-door boarding strategies. Second, a multivariate regression analysis was implemented with STM's archived automatic vehicle location and automatic passenger counter data to estimate the dwell and running-time savings that would result under various implementation scenarios. Third, a seasitivity analysis was developed to demonstrate the savings associated with implementing the policy. The findings showed that all-door boardings could yield substantial savings in running time, with morning peak savings as much as 15.8{\%} on the best routes. In many cases, the running-time savings were enough to remove a bus from a route while still maintaining existing frequencies. The findings from this research may be beneficial for transit planners and operators since the presented methodologies show substantial savings from all-door boarding and can be adopted by other transit agencies.},

In this study, government and road 41 authority goals and objectives for performance management were evaluated for different States 42 in the U.S. and different European countries in the interest of advancing the development of the 43 performance management programs in the U.S. and in the Netherlands. Agencies around the 44 world are exploring performance management programs to direct transportation investments, 45 support their governments' highest priorities, and provide greater accountability to the public for 46 the use of their paid taxes. The need for knowledge on how to manage a performance program 47 and set targets is similar in the U.S. as well as Europe. Some work has already been done in this 48 area, see for instance NCHRP 551. The main focus of this study lies on the organization of the 49 performance management between government and agency level. The objective is to learn how 50 to improve performance management across different organizational levels by looking at the 51 experiences of a number of individual States in the U.S, an Australian State and countries in the 52 European Union that have used performance management to manage their highway networks. 53 For this research two questionnaires were developed that focus on the way the performance 54 management program is organized. Special attention was paid to the analysis of a " line of sight " 55 in the EU study. Both studies, the US and the EU study, were done in parallel in late 2012.

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; Understanding pedestrian walking characteristics is important to plan and design mass gathering places for day-to-day activities as well as emergency evacuations. This is essential to ensure safety and efficiency of crowd dynamics by optimizing architectural designs and proper management of crowds at public buildings and built environment. Most of previous empirical and theoretical studies highlight the behaviors of crowds as a whole system (macroscopic behavior) or interpersonal microscopic interactions within the crowd. A major gap in the knowledge is that no sufficient research has been carried out to examine solo walking characteristics, particularly when individual pedestrians interact with complex geometries such as turning. It is questionable whether the existing mathematical or simulation models can accurately reflect the characteristics related to solo human behaviors in these conditions. A series of experiments were conducted to understand the solo walking characteristics of individuals walking through angled corridors with different speeds. A detailed discussion of initial results is presented in this paper. As results suggest, individuals tend to reduce speeds within a fixed region on the angled path and dimensions of this region are independent of turning angle, but are dependent on individuals{\^{a}}€™ desired speed. Findings of this empirical study are important to calibrating parameters or behavioral rules for microscopic pedestrian models.},

Bus priority schemes and techniques on urban roads and highways have proved effective for almost half a century. Many bus priority studies have been published and demonstrated worldwide, but none has dealt with optimal connected networks of PT priority lanes. The approach used in this study was based on a systemwide concept to obtain optimal PT network coverage. Such a PT priority lane network would enable fast and less interrupted vehicle movement, would increase the reliability of traasfers, and would provide better adherence to schedule performance. The study developed a model for the optimal selection of a set of IT priority lanes that maximized the total travel time savings and, at the same time, maintained balanced origin and destination terminals, given a budget constraint. An efficient CPLEX model was developed and tested. The model was used in a case study of Petah Tikva, a midsize city in Israel, and produced a successful, optimal network of priority lanes.},

However, this is not a good use of 3 data. In his previous work, the author proposed a method for improving the forecasting performance of 4 models by utilising not only the most recent dataset but also an older dataset. He assumes that the 5 parameters are functions of time, which means that parameter values vary over time. He analysed 6 journeys to work mode choice behaviours in Nagoya, Japan. Behaviours in 2001 are forecast using a 7 model with only the most recent 1991 dataset and models that combine the 1971, 1981, and 1991 datasets. 8 His models using data from three time points outperformed the model using only 1991 dataset. 9 This paper extends the author's work by expressing parameters as functions of GDP per capita. 10 Although functions of time ascribe all reasons of parameter changes to the trends of the times, functions 11 of GDP per capita explain parameter changes as the effects of economic conditions. Functions of time 12 have a difficulty for applying models to areas with different economic conditions; this problem is less 13 serious for functions of GDP per capita.

The VSL has a potential to improve traffic safety and reduce 3 traffic congestion and emissions through a better harmonization of traffic flow. It results in a reduction of 4 speed variations among vehicles travelling along the controlled section.

The analysis of the case study is based on a critical 7 bottleneck section of Auckland Motorway using Aimsun micro-simulator. The proposed algorithm is 8 compared with a known algorithm proposed in the literature and use in practice. The simulation results of 9 the case study show that the proposed logic tree-based VSL control algorithm outperforms the existing 10 method.

This 4 paper reports the findings of a model, which was formulated to analyze temporal effects of 5 the Dutch SpitsScoren reward scheme. On the one hand, one might expect that reward 6 schemes lose their effectiveness over time as individuals tend to fall back in their old habits. 7 On the other hand, by changing their routines, individuals may enjoy their new travel 8 experience, which in turn may lead to positive reinforcement and ultimately to new habitual 9 behavior. On balance, the impact of these opposite processes may work out differently for 10 different segments of travelers. To disentangle these effects, a panel effects mixed logit 11 model, predicting the probability of applying different adaptation strategies, including the 12 option of no change, was estimated. Because the various strategies may be correlated, the 13 model also allows for covariance between the options. Results indicate that socio-economic 14 and situational variables strongly affect travelers' adaptation strategies. Moreover, the 15 effectiveness of the reward scheme changes over time and affects the various options 16 differently. The estimated model also shows evidence of significant covariances between 17 adaptation strategies. 18 19},

The method will guide and support 5 the decision-making process for technological solutions and policy measures by creating a balanced 6 comparison of different options and transparency of discussion – based on the idea that sustainability is 7 mainly a matter of communication, commitment and cooperation. 8 First, principles of sustainable mobility were defined, which were then specified as criteria and 9 developed as a matrix of measurable sustainability indicators for the economic, social and environmental 10 dimension. The matrix should be used to structure an assessment and has to be embedded in a multiple-11 step decision-making process; recommendations for this process are included in the method description. 12 The method has to be tested concerning flexibility and practical use. Concerning the development 13 of the approach and for practicability of sustainable decisions in transportation, issues to be addressed in 14 research are: (1) ways to overcome inner barriers for sustainable thinking and link them with practical 15 acting, (2) how to bridge the time gap of recent issues and future resilience, (3) how to overcome barriers 16 between global sustainability and local action, and (4) how to improve stakeholders " commitment and 17 cooperation in order to be able not just to adapt to change but shape transformation for a viable future.},

Multivariate statistical 5 analyses were used to examine the relations between overall satisfaction and travel experience 6 variables, subjective well-being indices, travel-related attitudes as well as individual-and trip-7 specific attributes. 8 9 The results indicate that certain travellers groups such as women, young and low income or 10 unemployed travellers have distinctive determinants of satisfaction with trip stages for various 11 travel modes. For example, at public transport trip stages, the ease of transfer, station 12 environment, service frequency and travel time reliability are the key determinants of travel 13 satisfaction. Whereas waiting safety is an important determinant for women travellers. The 14 results also indicate that the satisfaction with the primary trip stage is strongly linked to the 15 overall trip satisfaction while the access and egress trip stages have a very marginal 16 contribution to the overall satisfaction. However, the satisfaction levels with access and egress 17 trip stages are strongly related to the satisfaction with the primary trip stage and hence might 18 indirectly be reflected through it. Past experience, travellers " expectations and attitudes and 19 travellers " emotional state are also significant explanatory variables of travel satisfaction.},

abstract = {1 2 The estimation of driving behavior models relies on the access to detailed traffic information such as 3 vehicle trajectories. Recent developments in vision-based technologies have allowed an increased 4 collection of vehicle trajectories around the world, with an emphasis on aerial or high observation point 5 imagery methods. Several computer algorithms have been proposed using images of different traffic 6 scenarios with the specific aim of detecting and tracking road users. 7 Very recently, multiple-object tracking based on constrained flow optimization has been shown to 8 produce very satisfactory results. Generally, this method uses individual image features collected for each 9 candidate vehicle position as main criteria in the optimization process. Although these methods are very 10 effective in controlled scenarios, adverse conditions such as dynamic view points and wider observation 11 areas with low ground sampling distances are known to encumber significantly the vehicle trajectory 12 extraction task. 13 In this paper we present the application of a k-shortest disjoint paths algorithm for multiple-object 14 tracking using a motion-based optimization based on dual graphs. A graph of possible connections 15 between successive candidate positions was built using speed and lane connectivity. Dual graphs were 16 constructed to allow for acceleration and lane-change-based optimization criteria. The k-shortest disjoint 17 paths algorithm was then used to determine the optimal set of trajectories (paths). 18 The proposed algorithm was successfully applied to the vehicle tracking in the A44 suburban 19 motorway, in Portugal. Vehicle positions were detected by image processing and 99.4{\%} of the trajectories 20 were successfully and efficiently extracted using the proposed method. 21},

In spite of tremendous efforts to promote public transport by the authorities; they still fail to attract the attention of the masses due to various reasons. Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) is an efficient rapid transit system which provides the last mile connectivity to the users with a high level of reliability and comfort. It is a demand responsive system that ensures uninterrupted nonstop point to point journey between origin and destination which is missing in the conventional public transport systems. Apart from the nonstop journey, PRT is a public transport mode that provides door to door service minimizing the access dispersal walk distances. These features of PRT make it a state-of-the-art public transport system which has the potential to attract the non-captive riders from personal modes to public transport. Introduction of PRT in an area leads to the improvement of Accessibility Index of the area. Dwarka, New Delhi, in India has been taken as the case study area to show how introducing a PRT system can improve the Accessibility Index in an area. Primary and secondary data has been collected to understand the characteristics of the existing mass rapid transit system and city bus services in Dwarka and for planning of a PRT system there. The Public Transport Accessibility Level (PTAL) methodology developed by the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham has been adopted for calculation of Accessibility Index.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. Transilien, the SNCF branch in charge of operating the main urban railroad network in the area of Paris, faces a regular increase of passenger flows. The planning of railway operations is made carefully through simulation runs which help to assess the timetable stability. However, many disturbances appear and cause train delays. Due to the nature of the railroad network those delays are cumulative and an on-line update of the timetable is not always successful in maintaining the trains schedules. In this tensed context, operators are searching solutions to enhance the use of the infrastructure capacity and achieve a better service quality. A needed step towards this objective is a better understanding of the phenomena of disruptions, in particular because the expansion of congestion is so far not clearly understood. This paper explores the possibility to transpose a traffic flow theory tool, the network fundamental diagram, in the field of dense railroad traffic. Railroad traffic is different from road traffic in many ways: railways are a planned system, traffic volume does not satisfy the continuum hypothesis, stations force stops and the signalization system brings a discrete behavior. Despite those big differences we show how to build a similar tool for a railroad system, the Line Fundamental Diagram (LFD), and how to interpret some obtained shapes for those diagrams. These diagrams give us some means to compare plan and reality. We also identify the limits that have to be overcome to take benefits of the road traffic tools in railroad traffic analysis.},

abstract = {Travel time estimation and prediction on motorways has long been a topic of research. Prediction modeling generally assumes that the estimation is perfect. However good the modeling, errors in estimation can significantly weaken the accuracy and reliability of the prediction. Models have been proposed for estimating travel time from loop detector data. Generally, detectors are closely spaced (say, 5(M) m), and travel time can be estimated accurately. However, detectors are not always perfect, and even during normal running conditions a few detectors malfunction, with a resultant increase in the spacing between functional detectors. Under such conditions, an error in the travel time estimation is significant and generally unacceptable. This research evaluated the in-practice travel time estimation models during various traffic conditions. Existing models fail to estimate travel time accurately under large detector spacing and during shoulder congestion periods. To address this issue, an innovative hybrid model that considered loop data for travel time estimation w as proposed. The model was tested with simulation and was validated with real Bluetooth data from the Pacific Motorway in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Results indicate that during non-free-flow conditions and larger detector spacing, the proposed model provides significant improvement in the accuracy of travel time estimation.},

For effectively improving the information awareness ability and emergency handling ability of related management apartments, and preventing the incident of pedestrian congestion, this paper studied on the method of pedestrian flow forecast in Beijing transportation hub areas. Firstly, 34 typical sidewalks in Beijing transportation hub areas were selected in this survey to obtain 2200 effective data. The survey sites contained different kinds of road facilities, traffic conditions and environmental conditions. Secondly, correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between pedestrian flow and its influential factors. 11 significant influential factors were extracted such as land use of the region where the transportation existed, effective width of sidewalks, proportion of reverse pedestrians and so on. Thirdly, forecasting model was established with modular neural network(MNN). At the beginning of developing the model, the surveyed pedestrian flow sample was fuzzy clustered according to the regional land use where the transportation hub existed. Then, membership function based on the distance measure was constructed. Through fuzzy discrimination, online selection for the sub network of the information can be achieved. As a result, the self-adaptation of the neural network on information processing was improved. Finally, this paper tested the pedestrian flow sample of a transportation hub in Beijing. It was concluded that the accuracy of pedestrian flow forecasting model used MNN was higher than other neural network models. There was also improvement in the adaptability to environment.},

H. Dashtestaninejad, M. Vaziri, H.J.P. Timmermans 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 A significant portion of the population of developing countries resides in rural areas. Despite 3 the importance of rural transportation planning in such countries, still little is known about 4 the activity-travel characteristics of these rural residents. The topic has been largely ignored 5 in transportation studies. To contribute to the scant literature, this study focuses on a 6 classification of representative activity-travel-based clusters (RAC), in rural areas in Iran. An 7 interview place-based questionnaire was designed and data about activity and travel 8 characteristics of rural residents were collected in May 2012. Based on the distance between 9 the village and the nearest city, close and far villages were considered in the survey. In total, 10 665 questionnaires were used for statistical analysis. A classification procedure was applied 11 to analyze the data. First, the application of factor analysis with Varimax rotation using 12 Kaiser Criteria resulted in 9 factors, extracted from 22 initial variables. The types of villages 13 were used to compare the factors. Results indicated that descriptive factors of rural RACs are 14 strongly affected by the distance between village and the nearest city. Next, a cluster analysis 15 was conducted, resulting in 9 RACs. Each RAC consists of a dominant activity type, activity 16 location and transportation mode. By interpretation of the RACs, the rural population was 17 categorized into 9 different lifestyles. Subsequently, the distribution of village type, gender, 18 and age variables for each RAC was explored. Except age categories, differences between 19 distributions of the village type and gender in the RACs are considerable. 20 21},

However, variability also stems from differences in knowledge about the environment, 3 which changes over time. To better understand the contribution of different sources to variability in 4 observed activity travel patterns, this paper applies sequence alignment to investigate different sources 5 of variability in longitudinal patterns. The data on activity-travel patterns were collected in 2010 for 6 three months from newcomers to the city of Eindhoven in the Netherlands. GPS technology was used 7 to obtain traces, which were processed using Trace Annotator to impute activities and trips. A set of 8 activity-travel sequences for a total of 8 weeks of 27 respondents were used in the analysis. The 9 results show that (i) inter-personal variability is significantly higher than intra-personal variability, 10 while intra-personal variability is yet substantial and should not be ignored; (ii) intra-personal 11 variability substantially changes over time, reflecting different speeds of learning the new 12 environment; (iii) both inter-personal and intra-personal variability are affected by socio-demographic 13 characteristics such as gender and country of origin. The paper ends with a discussion of the 14 implications of these findings for future research. 15 16},

Passengers' demand (both spatial and temporal) is a key component in those phases. Unfortunately, acquiring passenger demand is a complex and time-consuming process. Various information technologies are used by PT operators to assist in the planning and operations phases. The main systems being used are Automatic Vehicle Location systems, Automatic Passenger counting systems, and Automatic Fare Collection systems. Those systems are not capable of completely tracking passengers' movements throughout the system. Hence accurate demand estimation is not possible. Global Navigation Satellite System technology can overcome the disadvantages of those systems. The main drawbacks of such an approach are the high-energy consumption and lack of indoor use. A novel approach for tracking passengers is introduced, which has the advantages of being both energy-efficient and accurate (indoor and outdoor). Such an approach can provide the necessary means to overcome the above-mentioned issues with current technologies. In our paper, we successfully demonstrate the capabilities of Bluetooth Low Energy for tracking passengers outdoor and indoor. Combined with the proposed algorithms, it is possible to accurately track passengers and model and estimate demand.},

The phenomena of taxi boycott and unlicensed cars in China is due to the problems of 3 regulatory and operational mode. Taxi-calling mobile apps mode can balance the supply and 4 demanded information, increase efficiency and lower social cost. A model of cost of transaction 5 and regulation is built and a case of Shanghai is analyzed. The result shows that the cost of all 6 stakeholders and the total cost decreased by the application of taxi-calling mobile apps. The three 7 traditional operational modes (hail, rank and dispatching center) may be replaced by the 8 application of taxi-calling mobile apps in the future. The government will apply the information 9 platform composed of taxi-calling mobile apps to regulate the taxi industry directly in the future. 10 The survey indicates that most stakeholders support the promotion of taxi-calling mobile apps. 11 The government's centralized management of taxi-calling mobile apps will be accomplished in 12 the future. Big data can be achieved and used under the complete coverage of taxi-calling mobile 13 apps in the future.},

abstract = {In previous work, we have explored the idea of dimensionality reduction and approximation of OD demand based on principal component analysis (PCA). In particular, we have shown how we can apply PCA to linearly transform the high dimensional OD matrices into the lower dimensional space without significant loss of accuracy. Next, we have defined a new transformed set of variables (demand principal components) that is used to represent the OD demand in lower dimensional space. These new variables are defined as state variable in a novel reduced state space model for real time estimation of OD demand. In this paper, we review previous work and continue this line of research. Based on the previous results, we demonstrate the quality improvement of OD estimates using this new formulation and a so-called, 'colored' Kalman filter approach for OD estimation, in which correlated observation noise is accounted. Moreover, we provide a thorough analysis of the model performance and computational efficiency using real data from a large network, and method for obtaining a reduced set of state variables.},

Because most studies for new technologies rely on stated preference (SP) data, market share predictions will reflect shares in the SP data and not in the real market. Moreover, typical disaggregate demand models are suitable to forecast demand in relatively stable markets, but show limitations in the case of innovations. When predicting the market for new products it is crucial to account for the role played by innovation and how it penetrates the new market over time through a diffusion process. However, typical diffusion models in marketing research use fairly simple demand models. In this paper we discuss the problem of predicting market shares for new products and suggest a method that combines advanced choice models with a diffusion model to take into account that new products often need time to gain a significant market share.

This paper is concerned with the problem of optimally locating these facilities to minimize the total system cost. The problem is formulated as a fixed charge facility location model with charging capacity constraints. Our model extends the existing work by allowing unserved demands and considering drivers' tendency to stick to familiar parking lots. Accordingly, inconvenience costs are introduced for unserved demands and for those who have to change their parking lots for the purpose of charging. The proposed model is not only always feasible, but also introduces a pricing mechanism so that the level of service (measured by the cost of unserved demands) can be traded off with infrastructure cost. In addition, a stochastic version of the proposed model is developed to address the effects of uncertain PEV market penetration rate on the design of charging facilities. A case study is conducted to analyze the sensitivity of the models to different cost components, and to compare the results of the stochastic and deterministic models.},

At stations with passing lanes, congestion may occur when buses maneuvering into and out of the platform stopping lane interfere with bus flow, or when a queue of buses forms upstream of the station blocking inflow. We contend that, as bus inflow to the station area approaches capacity, queuing will become excessive in a manner similar to operation of a minor movement on an unsignalized intersection. This analogy is used to treat BRT station operation and to analyze the relationship between station queuing and capacity. In the first of three stages, we conducted microscopic simulation modeling to study and analyze operating characteristics of the station under near steady state conditions through output variables of capacity, degree of saturation and queuing. A mathematical model was then developed to estimate the relationship between average queue and degree of saturation and calibrated for a specified range of controlled scenarios of mean and coefficient of variation of dwell time. Finally, simulation results were calibrated and validated.},

Assessing the capability of a 3 transportation network to provide basic functionality following catastrophic events 4 involves estimating whether adequate connectivity can be ensured. In this context, 5 this paper addresses the problem of identifying the path of maximum connectivity 6 reliability (MCR) between a pair of origin and destination nodes on a network subject 7 to random and correlated arc connectivity failures. 8 In view of the failure of the sub-path optimality property for this MCRP problem, a 9 reliability bounds based sufficient condition for optimality is established. Based on 10 this principle, an algorithm is proposed which estimates the reliability bounds by 11 means of a candidate path set computed using an efficient K shortest paths algorithm. 12 In the absence of convergence of the reliability bounds, an iterative gap reduction 13 procedure is proposed that combines Monte Carlo simulation and network 14 optimization to improve the lower bound by generating additional candidate paths. 15 The proposed gap reduction and reliability evaluation procedures use a stochastic 16 decomposition of the link failure propensity to improve computational efficiency. 17 Empirical experiments on realistically sized synthetic networks show the proposed 18 algorithm to be efficient, requiring limited path enumeration and also underscore the 19 importance of modeling the correlations in link failures.},

abstract = {1 The research presented in this paper develops an agent-based modeling approach to predict 2 experienced travel times using real-time and historical spatiotemporal traffic data. At the 3 microscopic level, each agent represents an expert in the decision-making system, which predicts 4 the travel time for each time interval according to experiences from a historical dataset. A set of 5 agent interactions are developed to preserve agents that correspond to traffic patterns similar to 6 the real-time measurements and replace invalid agents or agents with negligible weights with 7 new agents. Consequently, the aggregation of each agent's recommendation (predicted travel 8 time with associated weight) provides a macroscopic level output – a predicted travel time 9 distribution. Probe vehicle data from a 95-mile freeway stretch along I-64 and I-264 was used to 10 test the proposed method. The results show that the agent-based modeling approach produces the 11 least prediction error compared to other state-of-practice and state-of-art methods (instantaneous 12 travel time, historical average and K-Nearest Neighbor), and maintains less than a 9{\%} prediction 13 error for trip departures up to 60 minutes into the future for a two-hour trip. Moreover, the 14 confidence boundaries of the predicted travel times demonstrate that the proposed approach also 15 provides high accuracy in predicting travel time confidence intervals. Finally, no offline training 16 is required for the proposed approach making it easily transferrable to other locations and the fast 17 computation time ensures the proposed method can be used in real-time applications. 18 19},

abstract = {20 21 Handling efficiently and effectively real-time vehicle control is of major concern of public 22 transport (PT) operators. One related problem is on how to reduce the uncertainty of 23 simultaneous arrivals of two or more vehicles at a transfer point. Improper or lack of certain 24 control actions leads to have missed transfers, one of the undesirable features of the PT 25 service. Missed transfers results in increase of passenger waiting and travel times, and of 26 passenger frustration. This work focuses on reducing the uncertainty of missed transfers by 27 the use of control tactics in real-time operation. The developed model improves the PT 28 service performance by optimally increasing the number of direct transfers and reducing the 29 total passenger travel time. This model consists of two policies built upon a combination of 30 two tactics: holding and skip-stop/segment, where a segment is a group of stops. The 31 implementation of the concept is performed in two steps: optimization and simulation. The 32 optimization searches for the best combination of operational tactics. The simulation serves 33 as a validation of the optimal results under a stochastic framework. A case in Auckland, New 34 Zealand is used. The results show that by applying the holding-skip stop, and holding-skip 35 segment tactics the number of direct transfers are increased by about 100{\%} and 150{\%}, and 36 the total passenger travel time is reduced by 2.14{\%} and 4.1{\%}, respectively, compared with 37 the no-tactic scenario. The holding-skip segment tactic results with 47{\%} more direct transfers 38 than the holding-skip stop tactic for short headway operation.},

abstract = {1 Typical non-lane based traffic is characterized by the lack of lane discipline and the presence of multiple vehicle 2 types. Moreover, mixed traffic streams require modeling of continuous lateral movements which are only restricted 3 by the road width. The existing simulation tools may not be able to replicate these specific characteristics as most of 4 them are developed based on the underlying concepts of lane based driver behavior. To address these critical trade-5 offs' between the lane-oriented and the space-oriented movement behaviors, a new space discretization based 6 simulation approach is proposed. In this approach, the lane is divided into small bands or strips and the vehicular 7 movement is tracked along them. In doing so, the dynamic virtual lane oriented movement behavior as seen in 8 mixed traffic environment is achieved. However, such a concept suggests the movements of vehicles as being still 9 lane-based in which they are merely regarded as a small/large car that travels in sub-lanes. So, this description does 10 not cover the typical longitudinal and lateral movement behavior of different vehicle types precisely. To address this 11 critical issue, behaviorally better longitudinal and lateral movement models are proposed. The proposed longitudinal 12 movement model incorporates the leader-follower combination based following behavior. This is done by 13 converting the gap, a specific leader-follower requires into an equivalent gap maintained between car and a car. For 14 this, regression equations are developed correlating the gaps of car-car combination and the other vehicle type 15 combinations. The lateral movement model calculates the gain in making a lateral shift in anticipation of better 16 driving conditions using a new benefit function. These models, when incorporated into the proposed space 17 discretization based simulator, work behaviorally better than the pure lane-based models as they allow the tactical 18 following and overtaking maneuver by a driver along the dynamic virtual lanes as seen in mixed traffic scenario. 19 Moreover, the proposed simulation approach retains the concept of lane based movement when the strip width 20 equals the traditional lane width and so can be used even for studying the traditional lane-based traffic streams. The 21 model was calibrated and validated with data from Mumbai, India and the results indicate better representation of 22 the mixed traffic movement. 23 24},

A key component of these systems is the 23 prediction of travel times. From the perspective of travelers such information may assist in 24 making better route choice and departure time decisions. For transportation agencies these data 25 provide criteria with which to better manage and control traffic to reduce congestion. This study 26 proposes a dynamic travel time prediction algorithm that matches current traffic patterns to 27 historical data. Unlike previous approaches that use travel time as the control variable, the 28 approach uses the temporal-spatial traffic state evolution to match traffic states and predict travel 29 times. The approach first identifies candidate historical time intervals by matching real-time 30 traffic state data against historical data for use in prediction purposes. Subsequently, the selected 31 candidates are used to predict the temporal-spatial evolution of traffic. Lastly, dynamic travel 32 times are constructed using the identified candidate historical data. The proposed algorithm is 33 tested on a 37-mile freeway segment from Newport News to Virginia Beach along the I-64 and I-34 264 freeways using historical INRIX data. The prediction results indicate that the proposed 35 method produces predictions that are more accurate than the state-of-the-art K-Nearest Neighbor 36 methods reducing the prediction error by 15 percent to less than 3 minutes on a 50-minute trip.},

abstract = {1 The aim of this research is to develop a location model of rapid charging stations for electric vehicles (EV) 2 in urban areas considering the batteries' state-of-charge (SOC) and the users' charging and traveling 3 behaviors. EVs are developed to prepare for the energy crisis and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In 4 order to help relieve range anxiety, an adequate number of EV charging stations must be constructed. In 5 urban areas, the construction of rapid charging stations is needed because there is inadequate space for 6 slow-charging equipment. The objective function of the model is to minimize EVs' travel fail distance 7 and total travel time of the entire network when the link flow is determined by user equilibrium (UE) 8 assignment. The remaining fuel range (RFR) at the origin node is assumed to follow a probabilistic 9 distribution in order to reflect users' charging behavior or technical development. The results indicate 10 that the location model described in this paper can identify locations for charging stations by using a 11 probabilistic distribution function for the RFR. And the location model, which is developed based on UE 12 assignment, is likely to consider the congested traffic conditions of urban areas in order to avoid locating 13 charging stations where they could cause further traffic congestion. The proposed model can assist 14 decision makers in developing policies that encourage the use of EVs, and it will be useful in developing 15 an appropriate budget for implementing the plan.},

abstract = {For economic assessment of road infrastructure investments and evaluation of operational strategies, estimation of travel times is of particular importance. This paper introduces a two-component model to estimate total or average travel times on freeways. The model differentiates between travel times in fluid traffic conditions, which depend on the length of the segment, and congestion-related travel time losses, which depend only on the volume-to-capacity ratio of the bottleneck. On the basis of traffic data from 50 freeway sections in Germany, the total travel time losses from congestion occurring in 1 year are estimated by macroscopic simulation. With the simulation model, the travel time losses can be related to the volume-to-capacity ratio of the hour in which the congestion was caused. A model function was developed to represent the congestion-related travel time losses in relation to the volume-to-capacity ratio. The application of the model for the assessment of operational strategies is demonstra...},

In addition to comparing existing approaches, we 10 also put forward the use of a novel technique which draws on the relative benefits of both 11 sample level and individual level models by estimating ILMs in a Bayesian fashion with 12 priors drawn from a sample level model. Our results show only limited differences between 13 ILMs and conditionals from sample level models when working with the full set of choices. 14 When working with more realistic sample sizes at the person level, our results suggest 15 that ILMs can offer better performance on the estimation data but that this is a result 16 of overfitting which can lead to inferior prediction performance. Our proposed Bayesian 17 ILM model offers good intermediary performance. The use of best-worst data rather than 18 simple stated choice, as is done commonly in published ILM work, notwithstanding re-19 cent criticism by Giergiczny et al.

However, the previous efforts have mainly 4 focused on the conceptual model or theoretical model, failing to replicate the generation and 5 development of corridors and cities in space. This article presents a mathematical model to 6 describe the co-evolution process of transport corridors and the growth pole economic activity in 7 a regional scale from a few isolated cities and unconnected roads to a complex and 8 interconnected urban system. The mathematical model has two major components: a corridor 9 growth model and a growth pole formation model. The corridor growth model is characterized 10 with network-flow adaption to reflect the " cost convergence and flow expansion " effect in 11 transportation network. The growth pole formation model embodies the " pole-axis " co-evolution 12 process based on the Steiner point identification using the concept of accessibility. A 13 co-evolution simulation is applied to replicate how the growth poles and transport corridors 14 emerged and evolved in Yangtze River Delta region. Meanwhile, the rationality and feasibility of 15 the model is validated. The results show that the presented model simulates the development of 16 transport corridors and growth poles in Yangtze River Delta region well.},

In eco-lanes, drivers are required to operate the vehicle at recommended or variable speed limits to reduce transportation energy consumption and improve vehicle mobility. The study focuses its efforts on evaluating various Eco-Lanes algorithms and speed harmonization (SPD-HARM) applications using the INTEGRATION microscopic traffic simulation software. The study demonstrates that the proposed Eco-Lanes system can significantly improve fuel efficiency and air quality while reducing average vehicle travel time and total delay. For this case study, the Eco-Lanes system reduces delay, fuel consumption, HC, CO, and CO 2 emissions by 23{\%}, 4.5{\%}, 3.1{\%}, 3.4{\%}, and 4.6{\%}, respectively, compared with the base case scenario. The study also examines the feasibility of a predictive Eco-Lanes system and demonstrates that a predictive Eco-Lanes system can improve the performance of the original Eco-Lanes system. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that optimum throttle levels and optimum eco-speed limits can significantly improve Eco-Lanes system performance. Finally, the study demonstrates that SPD-HARM across all vehicles and lanes reduces the system delay, fuel consumption, HC, CO, NO x , and CO 2 emissions by 7.6{\%}, 6.3{\%}, 23.9{\%}, 26.1{\%}, 17.2{\%}, and 4.4{\%}, respectively, compared to the base case scenario.},

The former controls the flow of traffic 3 into motorways from on-ramps while the latter impacts the speed of traffic on the motorway mainline. 4 An integrated approach to use prudently these two ITS measures can help to achieve an optimal 5 utilization of motorways. This paper proposes a new method to integrate RM with VSL controllers to 6 attain an efficient and equitable motorway system. The proposed method is used to combine a local 7 and a coordinated ramp metering strategy namely ALINEA and HERO with VSL. The method 8 developed is assessed using a case study in Auckland, New Zealand. The analysis of the case study is 9 based on a critical bottleneck section of Auckland Motorway using AIMSUM micro-simulator. The 10 outcome performance is assessed in terms of efficiency and equity of the motorway system. The 11 efficiency is measured by total vehicle travel time, average number and duration of stops and 12 emission levels while equity of the motorway system is measured by the Gini coefficient. The main 13 results are that the modified VSL and the HERO+VSL control scenarios outperform all other control 14 scenarios in terms of improving vehicular emissions and of total travel time and equity measure, 15 respectively.

We present a two-stage framework to find efficiently competitive solutions to this layout problem. 6 The first stage involves allocating the functionary areas into sections caused by obstacles using clustering 7 technique. The second stage involves the determination of the layout of the functionary area in the respective 8 sections by combining slice structure and irregular objects. In addition, heuristic approaches based on genetic 9 algorithm and scatter search are proposed. Numerical examples show the effectiveness of the proposed 10 framework.},

This growth also drives unprecedented challenges for 6 urban policy and city management. 7 The two primary challenges for managing large Chinese cities are mobility and air 8 pollution. Traffic congestion and air pollution in Beijing have become such critical issues as to 9 attract worldwide attention. These issues are inter-related, as transportation modes often create 10 exhaust composed of polluting gases and airborne particulates. These challenges have been 11 exacerbated by increasing automobile use in Beijing, which is up from 5{\%} of trips in 1986, to 12 34{\%} by 2010. 13 Addressing such challenges require detailed knowledge of multiple factors, including 14 trends in urban development, existing transportation and air quality conditions, planning 15 practices, and societal context.

Hence, it is critical to accurately predict the near-road PM 2.5 5 concentration and distribution for health risk analysis. This paper applies artificial neural 6 network (ANN) to estimate the near-road PM 2.5 concentration. Factors influencing the 7 detected concentration are classified into four categories: traffic-related, weather-related, 8 location-related and background-related. The estimated values are compared with 9 concentrations detected by monitoring campaigns in Gainesville, FL and Shanghai, 10 China.

Results show that the occurrence of the invariant points at the top of the domain could affect the vapor flux at the column top and salt precipitation along the column. In fact, the invariant points occurrence could explain the spatial fluctuation on the salt precipitates formation.

abstract = {Energy issues in transportation systems have garnered increasing attention in recent years in both the public and private sectors. This study proposes a systematic methodology for policy-makers to improve energy consumption efficiency in multimodal intercity transportation systems considering suppliers' operational constraints and travelers' mobility requirements. A bi-level optimization model is developed for this purpose and considers the air, rail, private auto, and transit modes. The upper level model is a mixed integer nonlinear program that aims to minimize energy consumption subject to transportation suppliers' operational constraints and the traffic demand distribution to paths resulting from the lower level model. The lower level model is a linear program that seeks to maximize the intercity trip utilities of travelers. The interactions between the multimodal transportation suppliers and intercity traffic demand are considered under the goal of minimizing energy consumption at the system level. The proposed bi-level mixed integer nonlinear model is relaxed and transformed into a mathematical program with complimentarity constraints, and solved using a customized branch-and-bound algorithm. Numerical experiments, conducted using multimodal travel options between Lafayette, Indiana and Washington, D.C. reiterate that shifting traffic demand from private cars to the transit and rail modes can significantly reduce energy consumption. More importantly, the proposed methodology is able to provide quantitative analyses for system energy consumption and traffic demand distribution among transportation modes under specific policy instruments. The results also illustrate the need to systematically incorporate the interactions between traveler preferences, network structure, and supplier operational schemes to provide policy-makers insights for developing traffic demand shift mechanisms to minimize system energy consumption. Hence, the proposed methodology can provide policy-makers the ability to analyze energy consumption in the transportation sector under different policy instruments.},

Additional capacity will be required to accommodate the new traffic demand for both passenger and freight services. The majority of the network is single track with passing sidings, which trains use for meets and passes; therefore, allocating sidings properly can significantly increase line capacity and reduce train delay. Railroads usually rely on experienced personnel to determine new siding locations to improve line capacity through infrastructure upgrades. Experienced railroaders often identify good solutions; however, this method does not guarantee that all good alternatives have been evaluated or that the best one is implemented. In this research, an optimal siding location model is developed with consideration of infrastructure and traffic characteristics to determine the optimal number and locations of sidings. The empirical results demonstrate that this model is able to generate an optimal plan for the number of additional sidings and their respective locations. This tool can therefore help railroads maximize their return on investment from capacity expansion projects and achieve the service quality desired by customers.},

We conclude that some critical factors have received more attention and research than others but none of the factors are yet solved and further investigation is crucial until solutions are universally accepted. We conclude that the treatment of residual value (RV) is inadequate and needs further research. RV represents the value of the infrastructure at the end of its project lifetime and the value that the asset generates over time. We propose three methods for calculating RV: straight-line depreciation, annuity/perpetuity and component. We conclude that the component method is the most complete method, and that RV is more important in situations where its value is compared to the total costs and benefits such as production facilities or when the benefit-cost ratio is close to 1.},

Moreover, as an empirical contribution, the proposed approach 13 is able to bypass the problem with pre-defined choice set and has the potential to replace the daily 14 activity pattern models currently applied in empirical activity-based implementations.},

abstract = {1 Dynamic speed limits (DSL) strategies are expected to delay onset of congestion thanks to its 2 ability to improve traffic flow homogenization and its mainstream metering feature. A new 3 coordinated strategy, i.e. ramp metering (RM) together with DSL, is proposed to reduce the 4 capacity drop occurrence in the vicinity of an on-ramp. It is based in a simple formulation which 5 captures the endogenous merge capacity. The effectiveness of the new control strategy is tested 6 with a cell transmission model extension, which incorporates the ability to reproduce DSL 7 strategies together with capacity drop phenomena. The simulation allows comparing different 8 control/no-control scenarios considering a hypothetical freeway section containing an on-ramp. 9 Results show amelioration in the performance indicators of the system, highlighting the equity-10 friendly component of the coordinated freeway strategies. 11 12 1. INTRODUCTION 1 An increasing consensus exists among practitioners that a good way to increase the efficiency 2 (e.g., productivity, equity and sustainability) in road networks is to introduce active management 3 strategies (ATM) for traffic flow control. ATM is defined as a real-time process which 4 dynamically manage recurrent and non-recurrent traffic congestion in real time (measuring and 5 analyzing traffic data for implementing the most promising control strategies) in order to 6 maximize the efficiency of highway facilities (Kurzhanskiy and Varaiya 2010). Among all of 7 them (e.g., dynamic speed limits –DSL–; ramp metering, lane management or traveler 8 information) the former mentioned policy is one of the most attractive ones, due to its apparent 9 simplicity and reduced implementation cost. Many cities around the world have introduced DSL 10 systems (e.g., (Soriguera et al. 2013; Papageorgiou et al. 2008)) isolated or coordinated with 11 other control measures. The claimed benefits of these actuations imply a reduction of traffic 12 related emissions and accident rates, as well as an improvement in congestion reduction (e.g. 13 reduction of stop{\&}go traffic episodes or capacity increase). It is reported (Smulders 1990) that 14 congestion benefits are due to the homogenization of traffic flow which allows for increased 15 capacity. In fact, some recent data in European highways provides evidences to support this 16 assertion (Ramoneda 2013) while other studies result inconclusive in this point (Papageorgiou et 17 al. 2008). Other contributions result from studies mainly focused on control algorithms 18 evaluations using second order traffic flow models (Carlson et al. 2010; Hegyi et al. 2005; 19 Hadiuzzaman et al. 2013). Anyway, the effectiveness of the policy is still a controversial issue, 20 probably motivated for the few evaluations of the dynamic speed limit with real data that can be 21 found in the literature, (e.g. (Soriguera et al. 2013; Papageorgiou et al. 2008; Heydecker and 22 Addison 2011)). Remarkably, most of them only analyzed aggregated data, while many of the 23 DSL benefits are originated in the microscopic traffic flow dynamics. Thus, only individual 24 vehicle data or a smart use of aggregations may allow to observe certain phenomena. 25 Unfortunately, micro data is not usually available and aggregated results are still non-conclusive. 26 Still, one main drawback can be derived from DSL strategies by setting speed limits 27 below free-flow speed. It has been frequently described how such strategies imply trigger an 28 active bottleneck in the most downstream controlled section (Carlson et al. 2010; Soriguera 29 2010). On addition, such active bottleneck may lead to the likely capacity drop occurrence, i.e. 30 the observed difference between the freeway capacity and the queue discharge rate, due to 31 inherent instabilities inside a queued bottleneck (e.g. lane changing maneuvers, sudden driver 32 brakes, small gaps combined with high flows or short acceleration areas at the edge of a 33 bottleneck). Consequently, any attempt to model such strategies requires incorporating the 34 capacity drop phenomenon due to its significant role in the traffic flow behavior. Equally 35 important, DSL algorithms must also consider the unnecessary drawbacks that will be induced if 36 setting low speed limits during uncongested situations. In fact, real implementations of DSL 37 systems support its strategy on processing different types of real time information. However, 38 most of them are not sufficiently based on traffic flow behavior and lead to blind and inefficient 39},

abstract = {Street network design and organization is a subject of much controversy: there is no consensus on what is the best option to provide the greatest level of mobility across a network. In this paper, we provide additional insights on this issue by analyzing finite square grids under three different street configurations: bidirectional streets, bidirectional streets with prohibited left turns, and unidirectional streets. Two different methodological approaches are used: analytical formulations and simulations based on a static user equilibrium traffic assignment. Analytical formulations describe the allocation of traffic flows under homogeneous congestion patterns, and reveal insights on behavior at the expense of some simplifying assumptions. Simulation techniques (with a static traffic assignment) examine the behavior under more realistic conditions; this is especially important for high traffic demand scenarios. In all the experiments we consider a uniform demand pattern, and compare different levels of demand and network size. Our study indicates that simulations and analytical formulations provide similar results for low congested scenarios; but as the system becomes more congested, results start to differ across the two approaches. Moreover, the best urban configuration is also dependent on the congestion level. When the network is uncongested (i.e. low demands) the bidirectional streets network with prohibited left turns appears to be the best option. When the network is congested, however, the unidirectional street networks appear to provide lower travel times. This difference is mostly caused by the delay formulation employed (based on HCM-2010) that penalizes more the streets with lower saturation flows. This penalizes the bidirectional networks as compared to the unidirectional networks.},

To this end, 38 participants varying in age and gender were enrolled to take part in a particular simulator scenario, curve taking. Based on a review of the literature, a driver's speed, acceleration, and lateral position are the three most important driving performance indicators. In the simulations, the three indicators were monitored at points before, during, and after a curve. As a widely accepted tool for performance monitoring, benchmarking, and policy analysis, the concept of composite indicators, which combines single indicators into one index score, was employed. The technique of data envelopment analysis, which is an optimization model for measuring the relative performance of a set of decision-making units, or drivers in this study, was used for the index construction. On the basis of the results, best performers were distinguished from underperforming drivers. Moreover, by analyzing the weights allocated to each indicator from the model, the most problematic parameter (such as lateral position) and point along the curve (such as at curve end) were identified for each driver; this process led to specific driver improvement recommendations (such as training programs).},

abstract = {The deep penetration of mobile phones offers cities the ability to opportunisti- cally monitor citizens' interactions and use data-driven insights to better plan and manage services. In this context, transit operators can leverage pervasive mobile sensing to better match observed demand for travel with their service offerings. With large scale data on mobility patterns, operators can move away from the costly and resource intensive transportation planning processes preva- lent in the West, to a more data-centric view, that places the instrumented user at the center of development. In this framework, using mobile phone data to per- form transit analysis and optimization represents a new frontier with significant societal impact, especially in developing countries. In this demo, we present AllAboard, a system for optimizing public transport using cellphone data. Our system uses mobile phone location data to infer origin- destination flows in the city, which is then converted to ridership on the existing transit network. Sequential travel patterns extracted from individual call location data are used to propose new candidate transit routes. An optimization model evaluates which new routes would best improve the existing transit network to increase ridership and user satisfaction, both in terms of reduced travel and wait time. The system provides also a User Interface that allows the interaction with results and the data themselves. The system in its whole is intended to be used by city authorities for improving their public transport systems, using cell phone data, which have a large penetration even in developing countries, and provide a cheaper, faster, alternative to costly surveys. The system has been tested using Call Detail Record data from Orange for the city of Abidjan, Ivory Coast, with the focus to improve the existing transit network. Four new routes have been proposed by the optimization system, resulting in an expected reduction of 10{\%} city-wide travel times. Several projects deal with the analysis of mobility and mobile phone data [2, 1]. They present powerful mining engines but do not provide direct interaction with data and results. Other projects providing visualization and interaction, on the other hand, do not integrate the optimisation based on analytical results. Our system integrates all these modules: the mobility analysis engine, the optimisation, and an interactive user interface, providing a new environment to extract and use information from mobile phone data},

abstract = {The railroad network in North America is projected to experience constrained capacity. Growing long-term demand for freight transportation as well as continued interest in increasing the speed and frequency of passenger trains will cause congestions across the network. To maintain traffic fluidity, investing in projects to increase the capacity of existing single-track lines is an inevitable task for the rail industry. Due to recent changes in commodity flows and freight rail transportation demand, much of this growth and associated investment is on lines of historically lower traffic density and infrequent passing sidings to handle modern unit trains. This study aims to find the best capacity expansion strategy for these single-track lines with sparse sidings. Rail Traffic Controller (RTC) software was used to simulate traffic operation on such a line subject to different possible expansion alternatives. The simulated performance of each expansion alternative was evaluated in terms of train delay and reliability. The results of these simulation trials suggest that for a single-track line with sparse sidings, the best alternative strategy to increase capacity is to first construct new sidings between existing sidings in the middle of the corridor and then extend the investment program towards the two end terminals by constructing new sidings in successive gaps until the maximum number of sidings is reached. The results are also used to develop a relationship between the total length of second-main-track and average freight delay under the preferred expansion strategy as an aid for practitioners involved in capacity planning of these lines.},

However, there is relatively little known about public attitudes toward non-automotive “green” transport. This research contributes to this aspect of he literature by using a unique survey of Chinese adults (n=3,887) to describe attitudes toward car ownership, use and green travel modes by income and other demographic variables. The data presented reflect that attitudes towards automobility and green transport in China are nuanced, but critically the results suggest that automobility has encroached on all aspects of travel. Respondents are skeptical of many policies that restrict auto usage but are overwhelmingly concerned that cars diminished the comfort and safety of walking or bicycling.  The policy implications and opportunities from these results are discussed.},

Demand for these services has been growing since the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law in 1990 and will continue to grow in the foreseeable future. Rather than adopt a centralized operating strategy, some large transit agencies use decentralized zoning for easier management and better overall reliability (i.e., higher percentage of on-time performance). However, this strategy is inefficient, because a service provider's vehicle is not allowed to pick up customers outside its own service zone. This ban hampers ridesharing and increases the empty trip miles driven. To address this issue, the study reported in this paper explored innovative ADA operating strategies that allowed service providers to serve both trips of cross-zonal customers in need of round trip rides. Three innovative policies were proposed. New algorithms were developed to incorporate the proposed strategies into the insertions heu-ristically. Simulation experiments on the hasis of data in Houston, Texas, and Los Angeles, California, were conducted to quantify the performance improvement over current policy. Results showed that, without sacrifices to customer levels of service, the best of the three policies analyzed could significantly reduce the inefficient empty trip miles by up to 25{\%}. As a result, the policy could save up to 6.8{\%} in assigned vehicles and lower the total mileage by 8{\%}; these results implied a significant savings in operating costs with a reasonable level of service quality maintained.},

abstract = {1 Travel time along an urban arterial is greatly affected by traffic signals. Most studies on urban 2 travel time employ statistical models to directly obtain the distribution without incorporating the 3 effects of traffic signal timing (1-6). In this study, a finite mixture of regression model with 4 varying mixing probabilities (weights) is proposed to gain a better understanding of urban travel 5 time distribution by considering the signal timing. While the standard finite mixture models with 6 constant mixing probabilities have limited ability to adapt to the underlying random structural 7 changes for the observed travel times, the model developed in this study can capture such 8 dynamics by 1) modeling the mixing probabilities as a function of the explanatory variables 9 associated with signal timing and 2) establishing a linear regression between the mean of each 10 component and signal timing. The finite mixture of regression model is applied to the travel time 11 data collected by the Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) system on one urban arterial with 12 Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS). The results demonstrate that the varying 13 mixing probabilities can be used to classify the samples of travel time and the mean values of 14 components can capture the effects of signal timing. By comparing various types of mixture 15 models, the proposed approach not only has a better statistical fitting performance but also 16 provides useful information about travel time features.},

Although various studies have been conducted,only limited overview of the factors towards urban taxi system has been provided. Consequently,a comprehensive evaluation of taxi system is essential for the urban planner to analyze the current situation and take effective measures. This paper,by using Floating Car Data( FCD),proposes a Comprehensive Taxi Assessment Index( CTAI) to quantify the quality of existing urban taxi system with the assistance of Geographic Information System( GIS) technology. The proposed index system extracts and classifies key factors,reflecting the taxi system from the perspectives of operation efficiency,customer and taxi-driver satisfaction. The system contributes to improving the organization and operation of urban taxi system. Based on the data obtained from the city of Shenzhen,Guangdong Province,China,for both weekday and weekends( Dec.,2011),the proposed CTAI was illustrated by using the Principal Component Analysis( PCA) with ArcGIS 10. 0 platform.

abstract = {The paper presents an analysis of scheduling and rescheduling decisions that are associated with driving trips of habitual car users and that employs a new data set for processing of activity travel schedules collected in Valencia, Spain, in 2010. A bivariate probit model with sample selection is used to accommodate the influence of planning on the decision to execute a trip as planned or not. The explicative variables included in the model are socioeconomic characteristics of respondents, travel characteristics, and facets of the activity at origin and the activity executed at destination, including the scheduling process decisions associated with them. The results demonstrate that a significant correlation exists between the choice of planning and rescheduling a driving trip. Other findings suggest that characteristics of the activity at destination, including the scheduling process decisions, have a greater influence on the choice of planning or executing spontaneously than the characteristics of the activity at origin. In contrast, characteristics and scheduling of the activity at origin have significantly more influence on the decision of rescheduling or not rescheduling a planned driving trip than attributes of the activity at destination.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; Metropolitan planning organizations and other planning agencies are increasingly being asked to evaluate proposed bicycle facilities and select the most promising facilities for funding. The objective of this study was to develop models of utilitarian and recreational bicycling and to implement these models in a unified GIS-based framework that the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) could use for planning purposes. As part of this effort, statistical models that evaluate bicycling to work and bicycling for recreation were estimated and implemented in the framework. This paper describes a logistic regression model that is used to estimate bicycle to work mode share at the level of census tracts or traffic analysis zones (TAZ). Further, a pair of disaggregate models were estimated to evaluate trips made by bicycle for recreation. The bicycle to work model estimation generated parameter estimates that are consistent with previous literature and also add to the literature by demonstrating the importance of well connected and accessible bicycle networks to utilitarian bicycling. The recreational models provide a new way to estimate the impacts of bicycle facilities on leisure or fitness based bicycle trips. Like the work commute model, the recreational bicycling models show the importance of proximity to trails and the impact of distance as a barrier to reaching the nearest trails on the decision to bicycle for recreation.},

SA is a set of summary statistics regarding the difference between 15 actual and scheduled arrival times at designated time points. Measures are calculated from 16 archived CAD/AVL data and schedules; statistics include percentage of on-time arrivals, average 17 and standard deviation. The time difference from actual and scheduled arrival at a time point is 18 schedule deviation (a negative deviation is late, positive is early). It is understood that dwell 19 time, traffic conditions, counts of boarding and alighting passengers, bus load, construction and 20 weather are among the major factors influencing schedule adherence. The effect of driver 21 performance is not generally considered. In this study, a statistical model isolates the effect of 22 drivers on staying on schedule to the next time point. 23 From a passenger perspective, predictability of arrival is essential to a satisfactory transit 24 experience. Thus, some measure of is a critical component of service quality. Some analytics 25 platforms present graphs of deviation distributions by time point on a route. We present a method 26 for deeper analysis using more advanced statistical models --we simultaneously regress 27 covariates on means and dispersions of deviation distributions, thus accounting for driver's 28 contribution to the average deviation from schedule and the variability of deviation. A skilled 29 driver arrives on time on average (is accurate), but also minimizes variation (is precise). We 30 demonstrate this method with CAD/AVL data from a mid-sized US transit agency.},

ADA paratransit growth is driven by a variety of factors including population growth, aging population and greater number of trips scheduled by individuals. Transit agencies are challenged to meet demand while balancing limited financial resources and quality of service requirements. Transit agencies are taking a number of actions to change policies and practices but are challenged in engaging the public on ADA paratransit issues in a meaningful way. Agencies must balance the risk of providing too little information and too much. “Information sharing is important not just for meaningful involvement on issues but also can build trust, create transparency, enhance advocacy efforts and proactively guide public conversation. (Giering, 2011).” Houston METRO has seen a steady increase in ADA paratransit demand and is considering changes in multiple policies and practices. METRO looked to researchers to determine industry best practices for public input. The researchers found through literature review and transit agency/expert outreach that there is a lack of public feedback tools for ADA paratransit. Researchers developed a data collection tool used to gain feedback on nine ADA paratransit policy and practices. This paper provides best practice elements found, methodology used to develop a data collection tool and results as applied to METRO.},

abstract = {The democratization of ICT in the form of GPS, motion detection technologies, and internet connectivity in smartphones has led to a proliferation of mobile applications which can detect and record an individual's travel behaviors. Compared with common methods of collecting transportation data, such as travel diaries and single-purpose gadgets (e.g. pedometers), the use of smartphone features can make data collection both more accurate and easier for both researcher and participants. In order to enable these benefits, ongoing research has focused on the software design for the collection of this data as a primary effort. Commercially available apps with similar functionality have found market niches in the ‘fully instrumented' or ‘Quantified Self' movement as enablers of physical fitness tracking. This paper outlines a web application prototype that interfaces with one such third-party tracking application, Moves, to automatically collect travel data in a format convenient to both users and researchers. The prototype application registers a participant with a research study and guides them through the process of authenticating researcher access of their Moves data. While dedicated travel survey apps aim to replicate the functionality of apps like Moves, they require separate installation and additional attention from study participants. The described web application, combined with Moves, requires almost no additional user interaction. This method is a lightweight, flexible solution for researchers looking to quickly test new hypotheses, allowing the researcher to progress rapidly from concept to research. Using data in this fashion expands the universe of travelers that researchers can reach.},

abstract = {A driving simulation experiment was conducted to test the effectiveness and relative efficiencies of two practice scenarios, each designed to present a series of lane changes for participants to negotiate. Scenario 1 included 50 lane changes and participants were instructed to follow the posted speed limits, which ranged from 48 km/h (30 mph) to 105 km/h (65 mph). Scenario 2 included 20 lane changes and participants began driving at 80 km/h (50 mph). They were told to increase their speed as they were comfortable to do so. In both scenarios, the lane changes were identified using sets of pylons flanking the desired travel lanes. Measures of steering and speed control were recorded. A cost function was developed as the product of the absolute value of the lane position of the simulator vehicle at the moment the vehicle reached each set of pylons and the square of the travel time between successive sets of pylons. The cost and cumulative cost per trial values were tested for whether they fit a power curve, indicating whether the participants learned, were still learning, or were not learning to interact with the simulator. Both scenarios were shown to be effective. The differences in the means and variances of the cumulative cost per trial values were tested. The results support the notion that Scenario 1 was more efficient, as indicated by lower variances after 20 lane changes. Additionally, the participants driving Scenario 2 had greater travel times between lane changes than those driving Scenario 1. The drawn conclusion is that directing participants to drive a range of speeds while making lane changes helps in their learning to interact with the driving simulator.},

abstract = {Current frameworks for analyzing emissions performance of public transportation systems use top-down approaches that can often provide useful information at the network level but can be uninformative at the project level at which the influence of route and vehicle characteristics can significantly impact emission profiles of candidate transit options. This paper describes an alternative bottom-up framework that uses second-by-second travel activity data to estimate total power consumption and related emissions for propulsion purposes with application to electric rail transit systems. The model was developed and calibrated with data from Portland, Oregon, and was supplemented with activity data from Chicago, Illinois. The results showed a predicted 1{\%} to 8{\%} difference in expected power consumption relative to estimates derived from the national transit database. In addition, the results highlighted how the speed profile, configuration of the train in number of cars, and mix of power generation sources could significantly vary emissions performance across different service routes. The developed framework can serve as an important tool for a transit planner or policy maker to evaluate the emissions performance of electric rail transit options. This framework has the advantage of relevance at both the network and project levels. At the project level, users can easily perform detailed sensitivity analysis on aspects of transit services such as vehicle and fuel technologies, passenger loading profiles, train size, and track profile. This framework gives transportation planners a flexible and efficient tool for emissions performance analysis.},

abstract = {Due to growing concern about the impact of emissions from the transport sector on global climate change, vehicle energy consumption is a factor of great interest to network planners. In addition, drivers are interested in reducing energy consumption and thus fuel costs. However, traditional vehicle energy consumption models have neglected an important factor: change in road elevation. This assumption has traditionally been supported by the idea that the energy consumed due to gradient would be reflected in changes in speed and acceleration, but an aggregate network demonstration on a realistic sized city has been difficult to show. This work demonstrates the impact of road gradient change on network wide vehicle energy consumption by integrating energy consumption equations based on the road load equations, elevation data available from the Google API, and a dynamic traffic assignment model to capture the effect of user route choice. This work quantifies the impact of the energy consumed due to road elevation change on two city networks, and results indicate that the effects of gradient should not be excluded from vehicle energy consumption evaluations. Additionally, the effects of “eco- routing”, in which drivers choose the least energy consumed shortest path, are explored. Results on the city networks indicate that if drivers do not account for gradient, they may choose a route that actually increases vehicle energy consumption. The modeling tool proposed in this work is scalable and easily adaptable for different cities.},

In order to alleviate this 4 worsening situation, some megacities in China have implemented an intervention to 5 limit car ownership. In this paper, different license allocation schemes are presented: 6 the lottery system in Beijing, the auction system in Shanghai, and the hybrid system in 7 Guangzhou. The practices in China cities are compared with Singapore and Hong 8 Kong which are representative examples of car ownership interventions over the 9 world. In addition, the possible impacts and problems of these three types of 10 allocation methods are analyzed. The result shows that intervention policies play a 11 significant role in controlling the rapid motorization in megacities which are 12 experiencing a transformation from low-income to middle-high income. Even though 13 the restraints cannot resolve traffic congestion, they do slow down the motorization 14 process and afford longer time for development of high quality public transit systems. 15 Moreover, both fairness and effectiveness should be taken into account while 16 implementing strong administrative interventions. The auction system would result in 17 an unacceptable high bidding price, while the lottery system may stimulate 18 " unnecessary demand " and encourage people to purchasing a car in advance due to 19 the very low odds of winning a car license. Therefore, the hybrid system of an auction 20 combined with a lottery seems to be a better choice.

The focus of both this research, and of the data collection process, was to investigate vehicle activity at urban retail establishments. This work reports on the formulation, development, application and statistical analysis of an EBFS with a sample of 604 establishments in Lisbon, Portugal. It contributes towards the systematization of the available knowledge and aims to potentially support the process of developing future EBFS as well as to inform researchers and policy-makers of establishments characteristics and delivery patterns. Methods: Several statistical analyses were performed to the survey answers' distributions such as Spearman correlations, line / scatter plots and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) linear regressions. Results: New insights into variables' worth are provided, such as the influence of industry category on the vehicle arrivals throughout the day or the influence of the number of employees on the total of weekly deliveries. It is revealed that modeling freight trip generation might be prone to considerable errors, which has implications if EBFS data is to be used in simulation models to test policy alternatives. Conclusions: It is concluded that stricter parking policies should be in place to avoid obstruction-causing parking practices. Also, the results support advising further research in the field of load consolidation and on the effect of the ordering process in the total trips generated by a retail establishment.},

abstract = {1 Freight transportation planning is largely limited by the amount, quality, and detailed truck trip 2 data. Most truck movement data are reported at the inter-county level and represented as 3 aggregated tonnages that must be broken down into truck trips. Additionally, intra-county flows 4 can be largely under-represented and commercially available commodity flow databases are 5 prohibitively expensive. Surveying truck drivers (such as at truck stops or at terminal gates) and 6 following trucks from terminals are time-consuming and require a great amount of labor to 7 process the survey data. Truck trip traffic generated from these aforementioned sources relies on 8 outdated and insufficient traffic generation data while truck trip generation and assignment 9 models are seldom validated or calibrated. In this study, we present a case study of how GPS 10 truck data can be applied to determine a number of freight performance indicators. This research 11 has the potential to address difficulties encountered by a number of state DOTs in effectively 12 integrating freight transportation into the long-range transportation planning process.},

abstract = {With the rapid growth of communications technologies, GPS, and the mobile internet, an increasing amount of real-time location information is collected by private companies and could be marketed for retail. This body of data offers transportation agencies potential opportunities to improve operations, but it also presents unique challenges. This article investigates the question of how much GPS data is needed to power a traffic information system capable of providing accurate speed (and thus travel time) information. A hybrid data framework is proposed to use real-time, GPS-based, point-speed data from mobile sources to augment previous investments in existing fixed sensors. In addition, a systematic analysis of the performance trade-offs among a menu of data sources is described.The results presented in this article were generated from the first procurement of streaming probe data from the private sector conducted on behalf of the California Department of Transportation and executed by UC Berkeley. Third-party data were incorporated with loop detector data and travel times were estimated within the bounds of driver variability. This achievement was repeated over multiple weeks and multiple congested freeway sites.Our findings indicate that penetration rates for GPS-based probe data are now suitable for travel time estimation on selected corridors. Data fusion makes possible the effective use of data from multiple sources or providers; when data from multiple sources are fused, superior results are obtained. On a freeway that is already instrumented with loop detectors, better travel time performance may be achieved by fusing a relatively small amount of probe data than by doubling the number of loop detectors. Finally, the answer to how much GPS data is needed must address issues of data quality in terms of sample rate and penetration rate.},

An additional LRT line 4 is planned to be introduced along this corridor in near future. This will increase the frequency of 5 LRT trains, with possible impacts on traffic and transit operations. This paper estimates how 6 these impacts change under different transit frequencies through VISSIM microsimulation. 7 Potential enhancements in traffic signal control at critical intersections, consisting of 8 modifications in signal phasing sequence and optimization of signal timing parameters, are also 9 presented and evaluated. Two models are tested under five operational scenarios: Base and 10 Enhanced model, for transit frequencies of four, eight, twelve, sixteen and twenty LRT vehicles 11 per hour along the 400 S corridor. The study is using Siemens NextPhase Software-in-the-Loop 12 (SIL) signal controllers to accurately represent LRT PPS logic. The analysis was performed on 13 corridor, intersection, and network-wide levels. The results showed that the increased LRT 14 frequencies had certain impacts on traffic and transit operations, mostly at critical intersections 15 and at the network-wide level.

abstract = {This paper takes a closer look at the determinants of public transportation demand and the role of ambient urban and geographical conditions. The hypothesis to be tested is that green and livable cities entail a higher use of public transport than observed in car-centered cities. However, a look into time series data for European cities uncovers that past mobility trends have been less in favor of public transport as a few prominent examples and the vast amount of subsidies flowing into the sector would suggest. To test this hypothesis, an ordinary least square (OLS) model has been developed in two phases. First, a simple supply side model has been established, to which in a second phase urban ambient and geographical variables have been added. For 37 European and five world cities it is found that green areas and the presence of bicycle parking facilities have a significant and positive impact on public transport mode share. Looking to world cities the model provides even more positive impacts of these variables on the model fit than in the case of the European cities. These findings lead to the recommendation to integrate transport system and wider local land use and development processes.},

The cerebral diseases examined are Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's Disease (PD), and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). A driving simulator experiment is carried out, in which healthy “control” drivers and impaired drivers drive in different driving scenarios, following a thorough neurological and neuropsychological assessment of all participants. The driving scenarios include driving in rural area in low and high traffic volumes. The driving performance of drivers impaired by the examined pathologies is compared to that of healthy controls by means of repeated measures ANOVA techniques. This paper analyses a subset of early results from a smaller sample, while a larger sample will be available from the study in progress. Various driving performance measures are examined, including speed, lateral position, steering angle, headway, reaction time at unexpected events etc., both in terms of their mean values and their variability. The results suggest that cerebral diseases do affect driving performance, and there are common driving patterns for all cerebral diseases, as well as particular characteristics of specific pathologies. More specifically, drivers with cerebral diseases drive at lower speeds and with larger headway compared to healthy drivers, an effect which is more pronounced within PD patients than AD and MCI patients. Moreover, AD and MCI patients appear to have difficulties in driving-related dual tasking, especially as regards the use of the gearbox. On the other hand, PD patients were found to have difficulties in positioning the vehicle on the lane. Cerebral diseases also appear to affect reaction times at incidents.},

The 2009 MUTCD requires that 3 either the Overhead Arrow-per-Lane or Diagrammatic guide sign designs be used for all multi-4 lane exits at major interchanges that have an optional exit lane that also carries the through 5 route. 1 However; some practitioners believe that it is cost-prohibitive and unnecessary to install 6 Overhead Arrow-per-Lane guide signs at minor interchanges. Given the benefits of Overhead 7 Arrow-per-Lane guide signs, a condensed version of an Overhead Arrow-per-Lane guide sign is 8 needed for use where a full Overhead Arrow-per-Lane guide sign is not a reasonable option. A 9 truncated version of the signs, which could be displayed on existing cantilever structures, would 10 eliminate the expense of installing larger structures, while still reaping the benefits of the arrow-11 per-lane sign concept. 12 This study identified five signing alternatives for potential use at minor and intermediate 13 interchanges with multi-lane exits and an option lane. Participants viewed videos of either 14 Overhead Arrow-per-Lane guide signs, or of one of the four truncated alternatives. Participants 15 were asked to indicate which lanes they could use to exit in some scenarios, and which to use to 16 proceed through in other scenarios. Participants typically understood the alternatives that 17 provided information about both through and exiting traffic (80{\%} comprehension) whereas 18 alternatives that provided information about exiting traffic, with little to no information about 19 through traffic, resulted in relatively low comprehension (38{\%}).},

Carsharing trip frequencies and mode share are of value to both carsharing and metropolitan planning organizations, and this analysis provides innovative techniques to estimate the number of trips taken and the share of total travel completed with free-floating carsharing. Average household income, and household sizes have a negative effect on the modal split of free-floating carsharing, and land use density has a positive effect; all of these results confirm previous analyses. When considering the number of rentals instead of modal share, both household and employment densities have a positive and strong effect on the number of rentals. Males are found to make slightly more trips via carsharing than are females, and carshare members between the ages of 20 and 39 also have increased trip rates. While these results are based on a free-floating carsharing system in Austin and may not be applicable to all carsharing systems in all cities, they nonetheless provide a basis for enhanced mode share modeling of carsharing in general.},

The aging transit fleet if not 3 adequately preserved may have adverse effect on public transportation. Many state DOTs and local 4 agencies are concerned about escalating costs of new buses and lack of funds to keep up with the 5 replacement needs of the aging fleet. Lack of adequate resource allocation mechanism creates challenges 6 for agencies to determine whether to purchase or rehabilitate/rebuild existing buses in an era of 7 constrained budgets. This paper presents a novel approach that maximizes the total remaining life of 8 buses at the state level consisting of many transit agencies with varying bus types. A branch and bound 9 integer programing is proposed to optimize total remaining life of buses subjected to policy, budget and 10 other constraints. Two scenarios are presented as options to assist transit agencies to assess better 11 strategies. The first scenario analyzes improvement options applicable to buses with zero years of 12 remaining life. The second scenario is mileage based improvement which allows for buses to be eligible 13 for improvement after they reach a certain mileage. The proposed model is applied for transit agencies in 14 the state of Michigan. The results show that mileage based improvement produces better outcomes than 15 replacement when buses reach service life of zero years. The proposed approach is generalized for use by 16 any transit agency to efficiently allocate resources and preserve the aging transit fleet.},

The data were from self-reported retrospective surveys collected from approximately 1,200 participants. Results from ordered probit analysis revealed that education and income generally increased most types of long-distance travel, whereas having a spouse or children decreased some types of long-distance travel. In general, limited factors had the same impact on the work and non-work travel and modes used. Factors also varied by trip type. Commute and employment factors were valuable even for non-work trip frequency estimation. The findings suggest that future data collection for long-distance travel can be tailored to address the specific definition being studied.},

The majority of these application 4 evaluations do not conform to J2735 messaging standards set forth by the Society of Automotive 5 Engineers.

An eco-speed control 8 algorithm that was developed earlier is integrated with the eTEXAS platform to receive signal 9 timing and phasing data through infrastructure-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communication. 10 The application uses this information to optimize vehicle trajectories so as to reduce their fuel 11 consumption levels while proceeding through the intersection. The platform was tested in a cloud 12 environment and produced a 5.5 percent reduction in the total intersection fuel consumption level 13 and a 9 percent increase in the average vehicle speed on a sample intersection.

abstract = {Automated vehicles have received much attention recently, particularly the DARPA Urban Challenge vehicles, Google's self-driving cars, and various others from auto manufacturers. These vehicles have the potential to significantly reduce crashes and improve roadway efficiency by automating the responsibilities of the driver. Still, autonomous vehicles are expected to crash occasionally, even when all sensors, vehicle control components, and algorithms function perfectly. If a human driver is unable to take control in time, a computer will be responsible for pre-crash behavior. Unlike other automated vehicles—such as aircraft, where every collision is catastrophic, and guided track systems, which can only avoid collisions in one dimension— automated roadway vehicles can predict various crash trajectory alternatives and select a path with the lowest damage or likelihood of collision. In some situations, the preferred path may be ambiguous. This study investigates automated vehicle crashing and concludes the following: (1) automated vehicles will almost certainly crash, (2) an automated vehicle's decisions preceding certain crashes will have a moral component, and (3) there is no obvious way to effectively encode complex human morals in software. A three-phase approach to developing ethical crashing algorithms is presented, consisting of a rational approach, an artificial intelligence approach, and a natural language requirement. The phases are theoretical, and should be implemented as the technology becomes available.},

abstract = {This paper introduces a new area-based measure for pedestrian planning and modeling, the Pedestrian Index of the Environment (PIE). It is based on estimates of the probability that a trip within a defined geographic zone will be made by walking using empirical relationships with the built environment. The PIE was calculated by applying weights to six built environment measures: comfortable facilities, block size, access to parks, people per acre, sidewalk density, transit access, and pedestrian-friendly businesses. The built environment measures were calculated at quarter-mile (0.4 km) or one-mile (1.6 km) search radii for 264 ft x 264 ft (80 m x 80 m) raster grid cells throughout the entire region. Weights were generated by using household travel survey data to regress the probability of walking on each individual built environment measure. The PIE improves upon existing pedestrian environment measures because, unlike many of them, the underlying associations between walking activity and the individual factors were developed empirically. This makes it possible for practitioners to ?쐕npack??the changes in the physical environment required to achieve a unit change in the PIE and better assess walkability. The small scale at which the PIE operates is also more appropriate for walking, especially because it can capture short trips. While originally developed to create a practical predictive method for estimating walk trips in regional travel demand forecasting models, PIE may also have applications as a standalone pedestrian planning tool for researchers and practitioners.},

abstract = {TASHA (Travel Activity Scheduler for Household Agents) is an operational rule-based model which generates activity schedules and travel patterns for a 24-h typical weekday for all persons in a household. This paper reports the application and validation of the model in Changzhou, China. The data cleaning procedure of the traditional household survey and the verification results of the rules used in TASHA are presented. After analyzing the results of the activity generation and scheduling models, we apply an iterative approach to inflating the observed activity rates to calibrate the results. The model is shown to replicate observed activity frequency, tour frequency and trip start time fairly accurately at regional level. The activity duration of the model is underestimated by 13.1{\%}, but it does not add much bias to the shape of duration distribution by start time. The final model results show the TASHA is an attractive alternative to conventional modeling systems currently used in Changzhou.},

abstract = {This paper aims to propose a modeling framework for reliable facility location design under imperfect information, i.e., when customers do not know the real-time information of facility disruption states. We consider a realistic "trial-and-error" strategy for a customer to visit facilities without knowing their states until arriving at this facility; i.e., a customer keeps trying a number of pre-assigned facilities until she acquires the service or is forced to give up trying. The research problem is to determine the best facility location that minimizes the total system cost, including initial facility investment and expected long-term operational cost from transportation and loss of service, when facilities are subject to probabilistic disruptions and customers use the trial-and-error strategy. This problem is formulated into a compact integer program (IP), and we develop a Lagrangian relaxation algorithm to solve it. A set of case studies are conducted to test the performance of the proposed algorithm, and illustrate the applicability of the proposed model. The results reveal a number of interesting insights into the system design, including the significance of multi-level customer-facility assignments and the existence of a robust system design against variation of the loss-of-service penalty.},

Despite the current 3 economic crisis, it is foreseeable that Portugal will pursue its HSR project in the medium to long term. 4 The main objective of the present research is to model the strategic behavior of passenger transport 5 operators that compete with HSR in a multi-modal corridor. As such, we analyze the potential changes in 6 the strategies of existing operators after the (hypothetical) entry of HSR, applying our methodology to the 7 case study of the link between Lisbon and Oporto, in Portugal. 8 Our results indicate that the game theoretical approach using the optimization algorithm proposed is 9 appropriate to simulate the operators' strategic behavior in the face of new competition in a multimodal 10 corridor. After the optimization and according to our assumptions, the HSR operator could potentially 11 double the currently estimated profits, while the airline could try to minimize losses, possibly by 12 collaborating with the HSR and avoiding costly connecting flights between Lisbon and Oporto. The HSR 13 can become a threat to conventional rail if the current operator is not allowed to bid for the concession of 14 HSR. Alternatively, it can collaborate with the HSR as a feeder and try to explore new market segments 15 in the currently over-saturated link. Buses are the main winners as operators could potentially increase 16 ticket prices, while increasing headways, and still increase their profits, despite some loss in modal share. 17 The proposed approach aims to allow transportation companies or authorities to estimate new traffic 18 shares due to appearance of a new competitor. 19},

This study analyzes the results from a large mobile data collection exercise, conducted in Montreal, Quebec, Canada during the summer of 2012. Research assistants covered approximately 475 km of unique roadway on bicycles equipped with instruments to measure ultra-fine particle concentrations (UFP), black carbon (BC), and GPS coordinates at one-second intervals. The spatial extent of the data collection included a diverse array of cycling facilities and land use patterns. Linear regression models were estimated for UFP (R²=0.3963) and BC (R²=0.4528), along with descriptive statistical analysis on many of the variables processed. Levels of UFP (2,653-75,374 {\#}/cm³) and BC (68-70,322 ng/m³) varied greatly across the study area. Presence in a downtown location was the strongest parameter in both models. Following this, the UFP model was strongly 12 influenced by wind speed ($\beta$= -0.247), temperature ($\beta$= -0.192), and distance from a restaurant 13 ($\beta$= -0.115), while the BC model was most influenced by the distance to the nearest highway ($\beta$= 14 -0.285), relative humidity ($\beta$=0.250), and congestion ($\beta$=0.133). No aggregate difference was 15 observed between in-street cycling and cycle tracks, however park trails had noticeably lower 16 pollution levels. This may be due in part to higher traffic density on streets with cycle tracks 17 offsetting reductions gained by their greater distance from tailpipe emissions.},

abstract = {Every year, staff and members of Council of communities of all sizes along Canada receive numerous complaints from residents regarding vehicles speeding along residential roads. Although traffic volumes on these types of streets can be considered minor, traffic speeds detected in such types of road are causing a concern. Aside of law enforcement, the most common response to these complains is the implementation of traffic calming since this type of engineering measure has the potential not only to lessen the direct negative impact of road traffic, but to promote the integration of urban environments in which all modes of transportation can be adequately integrated as part of the roadway network. However, many of these attempts have shown questionable effectiveness in reducing travelling speed “corridor-wide” with a perceived effect limited to the area surrounding a traffic calming device. Through a comprehensive literature search and jurisdiction scan approach; this paper investigates the effectiveness of speed management measures while considering the following factors: 1) self-enforcement measures; 2) corridor-wide effect; 3) before and after study findings; and 4) potential impacts on transit routes, emergency vehicle response time, snow removal activities and pedestrian/cyclists. The results of this investigation are summarized in a selection matrix format for the most effective speed management measures. A methodology for applying these measures on collector roads is introduced by considering the context-sensitive characteristics of the study area and the speed management selection matrix. This methodology is then applied to two case studies on the City of Edmonton roads.},

Model transferability was assessed using two different approaches: (1) estimation-based approach, and (2) application-based approach. The former approach allows the analyst to test which specific coefficients in the model are transferable and which are not, while the latter approach tests the transferability of a model as a whole. In addition, the hypothesis that pooling data from different geographical contexts helps in estimating better transferable models than those developed from a single context was tested. The estimation-based approach yields encouraging results in favour of model transferability, with a majority of the coefficients in a pooled model found to be transferrable. Pooling data from different geographical contexts appears to help in developing better transferable models but careful attention is needed in selecting the geographical contexts to pool the data from.},

Experimental results showed that PCVS has the characteristics of immersion and reality based on consistent perceptions of pedestrian LOS between the two methods Factors influencing pedestrian LOS were investigated using two approaches, Pearson correlation analysis and stepwise regression analysis. The regression analysis (R{\^{A}}² =0.65) revealed intuitive signs and magnitudes of significant variables that influence LOS; increases in delay, turning traffic, mixed two-wheeler volume, and pedestrian delay have negative impacts to LOS.

abstract = {This paper develops and applies a generalized framework for extending accessibility measurements from the metropolitan to the walking scale, directly addressing a key limitation in much of the current research and practice in transportation planning and modeling (1). It integrates spatially distributed activities into a multi-modal transportation graph, allowing the efficient analysis of destinations at multiple scales by transportation mode. This research makes several methodological advances that enable representation of the full set of local streets for pedestrian-scale accessibility, a hierarchical graph to represent the tradeoff between modes, and integration of micro-scale land use data to measure the full population of alternative destinations in the city. This paper focuses on pedestrian trips using the 2012 Bay Area Travel Survey (BATS) as an application of this framework, and compares the predictive power of Walkscore to other accessibility measures found in the literature, as well as household and individual attributes. Our results demonstrate the utility of using a framework for computing accessibility at mode-appropriate scales for predicting travel outcomes such as walking trip counts. We find that accessibility variables are correlated, and that composite metrics such as Walkscore provide a parsimonious predictor of walking trips, mediated by household and individual attributes. The results confirm that local residential density variables and regional accessibility to jobs, help explain walking trips, even after controlling for Walkscore. In addition, regional accessibility by other modes appears to complement local accessibility in increasing walk trips},

abstract = {The second decade of the 21 st century has seen the advancement of alternative fuels in transport, particularly the plug-in electric vehicle (PEV). Most of the developed countries in the world, along with China, have made significant investments in PEVs and related technology and instituted near-term targets for achieving 10- 15{\%} of domestic market share. This is occurring despite significant uncertainty the ability of PEVs to appeal to consumers . Currently in the U.S., 0.5{\%} of vehicles purchased are PEVs . These “early adopters” may serve as opinion leaders and have a disproportionate influence on the development of the technology. However, they are also likely different from other consumers in meaningful ways :early adopters are generally wealthier, more educated, more comfortable with technology, and have a stronger environmental attitude. Thus, the utility of a PEV for an early adopter may not reflect that for the rest of society. In this paper we examine an d compare two groups of PEV drivers: The first consists of early adopters, who purchased a PEV for themselves or family. The second group consists of fleet drivers, i.e. individuals who drive a PEV for work. They have not purchased a PEV and are therefore are not early adopters. We conduct descriptive and empirical analysis using a unique dataset of 76 PEV owners in Indianapolis, Indiana. The results indicate use of PEVs in a fleet capacity may provide some mobility enhancement, and that fleet arrangements have the potential to provide a gateway for PEVs toward the general consumer market for automobiles.},

If one 4 considers the case of agricultural commodities, information availability is further reduced since 5 agricultural census data collection is infrequent and is not complete in terms of crops covered, 6 nor does data exist below the county level in terms of geographical aggregation. 7 Additionally, data sources such as the Freight Analysis Framework (1), FAF, often present 8 annual data. Since transportation models are usually developed for peak periods and/or typical 9 days, the traditional assumption of flat peak factors are not valid for agricultural commodities 10 that are seasonal and that have seasonal patterns with inter-state and intra-state variations. 11 CropScape is a tool from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that provides 12 complete coverage for the 48 contiguous states and reports all crops with a spatial resolution of 13 less than one acre. It is in this setting that we tested the use of CropScape in two different 14 analyses: FAF disaggregation and seasonality analysis. We present results that include models 15 for FAF disaggregation that greatly outperform the best models currently available in the 16 literature and a procedure for computing agricultural seasonality for any desired geographical 17 aggregation.},

While there are significant Federal programs for transit capital costs 3 such as New Starts and Small Starts, the burden of funding operating costs for transit 4 predominately falls on local and state governments. As fare box revenue traditionally covers 5 only a fraction of operating costs, finding a sustainable source of operating funds is often 6 exceptionally challenging. 7 The Bus Toll Lane (BTL) concept is a new idea to address the financial needs of public 8 transportation and the challenges of urban traffic congestion by combining the resources of 9 public transit and toll agencies. The BTL idea brings transit and tolling agencies together as 10 equity partners to fund a multi-modal solution. By combining the capital funding resources of 11 transit with the long-term revenue strength of tolls, a more effective and sustainable public 12 transportation system can be developed sooner than either mode could produce on its own. The 13 subject of this paper, the Bus Toll Lane Concept Feasibility Study (BTL Study) was undertaken 14 to examine the operational and financial viability of this new idea. This paper presents the results 15 of that study. 16 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The two primary types are automated people movers (APM's) and personal rapid transit (PRT). APM's can be found at several US airports and other activity centers. Their capacities and speeds match light rail and heavy rail, but unlike the others, the APM operations are completely automated. PRT, which is not well established in the US, is also automated and operates on its own right of way. PRT features smaller vehicles, lower maximum speeds, and the ability to bypass intermediate stations. The different capacities, speeds, and path selection of PRT and APM determine which type is preferable in particular areas. This paper analyzes which APM systems could be implemented as PRT. System shape, number of stations, distance between stations, and demand per station are varied to create unique scenarios. Lastly, the effects of simulation inputs on the results are examined.},

More recent models incorporate risk and are based on expected utility theory (EUT). 4 However, violations of key assumptions of EUT have led to the development of nonexpected 5 utility theories, among which is prospect theory (PT). 6 This study examined if PT is superior to EUT when predicting and understanding travelers' 7 behavior in the case of MLs by embedding PT proposed value function and probability 8 weighting functions in the utility estimation. This study uses survey data from 2012 and provides 9 estimates of the value that travelers are willing to pay for travel time savings on MLs from the 10 EUT and PT approaches. Estimates from the EUT and PT approaches are compared and we find 11 that Katy Freeway travelers are more risk averse when in a situation of being late than they are 12 with potential savings in travel time, and they, on average, demonstrate a sense of optimism 13 when the chances of facing a longer travel time are high. Compared to previously available route 14 choice studies, the relatively low WTP measures calculated in this study may deserve further 15 investigation. Examination of the predictive ability of mode choice of the EUT-based and PT-16 based models indicates that models embedding the probability weighting outperform models 17 without such weighting.

To meet the changing needs of transportation systems and their users, the accuracy and the applicability of the base assumptions used to develop access management guidelines must be verified. This research effort utilized a driving simulator study to investigate several assumptions related to driver behavior and access management. The simulator study focused on driver perception–reaction time in the vicinity of driveways and driver behavior in response to differing driveway activity types. The results indicated that the average and 85th percentile perception–reaction times for all drivers were 2.8 s and 4.3 s, respectively. Surprisingly, older drivers (age 65 and older) appeared to be more alert and had an 85th percentile perception–reaction time a full second shorter than that of their younger counterparts (3.3 s versus 4.4 s). The researchers also observed that deceleration rates had a curvilinear (not constant) relationship with vehicle speed, and these values were much lower than the accepted AASHTO value of 11.2 ft/s2. Finally, the predominant response to driveway activity was a slowing maneuver, not a stop or a lane change. This finding suggests that sight distance calculations based on an urgent stop may not be the most appropriate metric for determining access spacing guidelines for commercial urban road environments.},

The process has involved educating a broad based steering committee on the experience of road usage charging around the world and potential policy objectives, and then evaluating a wide range of illustrative high level operational concepts—from simple to complex.

The next phase of work involves creating a  45 smaller set of potential concepts, articulating policy objectives, and evaluating the business case from the standpoint of dollars and cents and ability to achieve the objectives.

Moving too quickly toward pilot programs or implementation can create a powerful backlash due to lack of understanding of the underlying problem to be solved, as well as the potential solutions. There is also value to a transparent and open process that remains low key, and does not try a large scale public involvement process until a broad-based steering committee can work through the difficult  issues and find a way to make the issues clear for a larger public. While there are no perfect solutions, with a set of goals, guiding principles, and an objective business case, it will be easier for policy boards, elected officials, the public, commentators, and the media to make informed choices about the future of transportation finance.},

Abstract 1 Equilibrium travel demand model systems solve for consistency between travel times across a 2 network used by models of travel demand, and the user-equilibrium travel times from assignment 3 of this demand to the network, by means of some form of " feedback " iteration. Within this outer 4 loop is an inner loop of traffic assignment, itself an iterative process solving for consistency 5 between times traveled on the network and on the shortest paths between each origin and 6 destination. This study examines how fine a convergence of these inner loops is sufficient to not 7 prevent, limit, or delay convergence of the outer loops, while avoiding excessive run-time from 8 superfluous over-convergence of tentative solutions. 9 Test results from several Frank-Wolfe assignments varying in congestion level, link flow-delay 10 relations, and region found a fairly consistent relation, within an order of magnitude, between 11 assignment relative gap and a comparable measure of the errors of the resulting origin-12 destination travel times, compared to those of well-converged assignment. Assignments of 13 several of the same cases with origin-based, projected gradient, or other advanced methods 14 showed larger travel time errors for a given relative gap, with wider variation. In test runs of a 15 feedback model, these results was used to choose adaptive stopping criteria automatically for 16 pre-final assignments, which were lenient in early feedback iterations, and finer as the run 17 progressed. Substantial assignment run-time was saved compared to constant stopping criteria, 18 with insignificant harm to the feedback convergence progress. 19},

abstract = {1 TTI's Urban Mobility Report (UMR) (1) is acknowledged as the most authoritative source of 2 information about traffic congestion and its possible solutions. As policymakers from the local 3 to national levels devise strategies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the level of 4 interest in the environmental impact of urban congestion has increased. To this end, researchers 5 developed and applied a methodology to determine carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions due to 6 congestion for inclusion in the UMR. The methodology also estimated fuel consumption based 7 upon the carbon dioxide emissions estimates. 8 Researchers developed a five-step methodology using data from three primary data 9 sources: 1) the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Highway Performance Monitoring 10 System (HPMS), 2) INRIX traffic speed data, and 3) The United States Environmental 11 Protection Agency's (EPA) MOtor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model. Emission 12 rates (lbs. of CO 2 per mile) were validated in selected cities, with results in the range of 80 13 percent to 99 percent of selected emission inventories. 14 Researchers incorporated the new methodology for all urban areas into the 2012 Urban 15 Mobility Report and plan to include these same measures in future releases of the report. 16 Researchers reported that, in 2011, 56 billion pounds of additional CO 2 were produced in all 498 17 urban areas during congestion only, equating to 2.9 billion gallons of " wasted " fuel. Researchers 18 reported the amount of CO 2 produced at free-flow conditions (i.e., absent congestion) is 1.8 19 trillion pounds in 2011 in all 498 urban areas. 20 21 BACKGROUND 22 The transportation sector's sizeable contribution to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions makes it a 23 focal point in the ongoing effort to reduce GHG emissions. The U.S. Environmental Protection 24 Agency (EPA) found that transportation is the second largest CO 2 emitting sector in the United 25 States behind electricity generation, with each sector contributing 33 percent and 42 percent of 26 total CO 2 emissions, respectively (2). 27 Improving vehicle fuel efficiency is an important component in reducing CO 2 emissions 28 because fuel consumption is directly correlated with CO 2 emissions. While a 2012 EPA report 29 (2) did find a slight improvement in average fuel economy from 1990 through 2010, this 30 improvement was minimal and did little to offset the 19 percent rise in CO 2 emissions that 31 occurred during this time-period, mainly due to an increase in travel. Although the average fuel 32 economy of new vehicles sold from 1990 to 2010 did not improve until 2005 (2), the National 33 Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and EPA issued new fuel economy standards 34 in 2012, which are expected to accelerate these recent improvements in fuel economy (3). 35 While most emphasis is placed on vehicle efficiency standards, mitigation of urban 36 roadway congestion offers another opportunity to improve vehicle efficiency. The Urban 37 Mobility Report (UMR) is acknowledged as the most authoritative source of information about 38 traffic congestion and its possible solutions. The 2012 UMR marks the 22 nd},

The authors found that a significant decline in automobile mode share was associated with a significant increase in bicycle mode share, suggesting that bicycling replaced certain automobile commuting trips. Analysis by distance revealed nuances in mode substitution. There were significant increases in bicycle commuting for students living between 1.6 and 15.9 km (1.0 and 9.9 miles) from campus. However, the increases in bicycling for students living between 1.6 and 3.1 km (1.0 and 1.9 miles) corresponded with decreases in bus rather than automobile ...},

First, it is proposed that speed variance be used to measure freeway level of service from A through E in the context of " no more x{\%} of the vehicles with travel time up to y{\%} greater than the free flow condition. " It is argued that such a measure not only reflects mobility (y{\%}), reliability (x{\%}), and potentially safety, but also avoids the vague descriptions associated with each service level in the current HCM. Second, the relationships are applied to estimate speed distribution for the MOVES mobile source air emission model. A revised approach is developed and compared to that in the current model. It is argued that the MOVES model's approach limits the distribution in two speed bins, results in unsupported speed variance, and may cause identical distributions under various average speeds. The proposed revised approach based on speed variance generates specific spread-out distributions consistent with empirical data. The findings of these two applications bring new concepts to the current practice. Suggestions are made to fix the deficiencies of the existing and proposed approaches in the applications.},

Public 47 transportation enables non-driving seniors to remain independent in the community, provides an 48 alternative travel mode for driving seniors, and makes driving cessation feasible for seniors who 49 no longer possess the skills necessary for safe driving. Fixed-route transit, in particular, is the 50 most sustainable, convenient, and affordable service. Most transit agencies now recognize the 51 important societal role they play in providing services to the senior population and have put forth 52 significant efforts to market transit programs and services. This task, however, is far from easy. 53 With the sensory, physical, cognitive, and behavioral variations among seniors, many agencies 54 struggle to develop effective strategies to attract more senior citizens to public transportation. 55 To learn more about fixed-route transit services specific to seniors, a series of in-depth 56 interviews were conducted with transit planners, marketing staff, and upper level administrators 57 at five transit agencies. Interviewees shared their experiences related to attracting senior citizens 58 to public transportation. A variety of programs and marketing strategies utilized by agencies, 59 along with associated benefits and challenges are described and discussed. This research then 60 identified four promising strategies that can help transit agencies successfully develop and 61 market programs capable of attracting senior riders. Based upon a review of the literature, 62 interviews, and examination of the agencies' web sites, the identified strategies may prove to be 63 effective in attracting senior riders. The strategies and findings of this research are presented in 64 detail. 65 66},

A survey with a combination of revealed and stated preferences was conducted in order to evaluate the propensity among university employees and students towards participation in the FacePorting program. The survey‟s results confirmed some of the previous findings pointing to the influential factors in the success of peer-to-peer dynamic ridesharing, such as socio-demographic characteristics, attitudinal and behavioral factors, weather condition, ridesharing contribution fee, riders‟ profile and required incremental driving time. Furthermore, the survey‟s outcomes confirm that students are more willing to partake as ride-seekers in real-time ridesharing programs compared to university academic staff and employees.

Recent research has attempted to establish stronger principles from which to make sound moral judgements as to the fairness of transport impact distribution. The literature reveals that transport equity analysis is complex due to the numerous types of equity and impacts to consider.

abstract = {Skateboarding is most commonly thought of as a recreational activity, but there is evidence that skateboards can and are being used for intentional, utilitarian travel. Small, but not insignificant mode shares in the low single digits have been found at some college campuses. The potential of skateboards to be used for transportation could be relevant to those interested in promoting active travel. Also, the presence of skateboarders on travel facilities could have implications on transportation professionals and how they accommodate all users. Understanding why individuals have selected this unconventional mode of travel could shed some light on whether it might expand in use as a mode, and if so, by what kinds of travelers and where. Factors leading to the mode choice of skateboarding were investigated through surveys and interviews of skateboard commuters at the University of California, Davis. Skateboarders appear to be mostly motivated by utilitarian concerns. They find skateboards convenient, moderately fast, and flexible in terms of where they can be ridden and their ability to be used in tandem with other modes. That skateboarding is fun is also important, highlighting that skateboarders are not motivated by purely practical concerns however. Skateboarding shares attributes with other modes, however in a unique combination. This could indicate that skateboarding could be meeting travel preferences not provided by more typical modes of travel.},

abstract = {1 The stated choice (SC) experiment is generally regarded as an effective way to obtain data for 2 discrete choice analysis. The SC experimental design method, which determines the rule to allocate 3 different levels for each attribute in choice situations, will have a great impact on parameter 4 estimation. The optimal orthogonal choice (OOC) design is one of the most efficient SC designs, by 5 which more reliable parameter estimates can be achieved with an equal or lower sample size. 6 However, OOC design can only be applied to utility models with generic attributes; using it to assign 7 alternative-specific attribute levels is not fully discussed in literature. This paper provides a method 8 to extend the use of OOC design to alternative-specific attributes. Column vectors for 9 alternative-specific attributes are introduced and the value of each vector is forced to be orthogonal 10 with other generic attributes in a same alternative. In this way, orthogonality of OOC design is kept 11 within individual alternative but not necessarily across alternatives. The proposed method was 12 compared with traditional orthogonal design and D-efficient design (another state-of-the-art efficient 13 design method). Three experiments using field data on mode choice were conducted. The result 14 shows that both proposed method and D-efficient design have a higher efficiency than the 15 orthogonal design. In addition, under the complex experiment setting environment in real world, the 16 proposed method outperforms D-efficient design in the sense that almost the same efficiency can be 17 obtained while avoiding multiple iterations for optimal solution. 18 19 KEY WORDS: EFFICIENT DESIGN, OPTIMAL ORTHOGONAL, EFFICIENCY, LOGIT 20 MODEL 21 22},

One such development is Integrated Active Transportation Systems (IATS)-an integrated, active, and advanced transportation system with the goal of optimizing safety and mobility. Questions remain as to the preparedness of transportation stakeholders and agencies in implementing IATS. This paper presents the results of a survey of U.S. transportation stakeholders. The survey goals include: 1) investigating geographic regions best suited for initial IATS deployment, 2) identifying IATS elements that could be feasibly implemented in the near future, and 3) determining obstacles to deployment in the best suited regions. The survey results established four regions that appear to be best suited to IATS implementation (Mid-Atlantic, South Atlantic, Pacific, and East South Central). Survey questions pertaining to regional readiness and challenges (e.g., local city streets, regional/state infrastructure) for IATS implementation were used to determine which IATS elements could be realized most feasibly in the near future. The East South Central and Pacific regions appear better suited to implementing IATS vehicle-based components (e.g., autonomous and connected vehicles), with 50{\%} and 19{\%}, respectively, believing automation elements are ready for implementation; the Mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic appear better suited to implementing system-monitoring components (e.g., road sensors), with 60{\%} and 85{\%}, respectively reporting that system monitoring elements are ready for implementation. Survey results also illustrate 79{\%} of respondents believe an incremental approach to IATS implementation would be the best strategy for introducing emerging ITS technologies.},

Currently, there is no United States guideline on how the additional lane 3 lengths affect roundabout operation. Hence, most transportation professionals refer to studies 4 conducted overseas that do not necessarily translate directly to domestic roundabout design and 5 operation. As the number of modern roundabouts in the United States increases, the desire is to 6 provide effective information to professionals on roundabout operation and design for conditions 7 similar to their jurisdiction. Using delay as the measure of effectiveness, a hypothetical four-leg, 8 double-lane roundabout with additional lane design at both entry and exit is analyzed. The 9 additional lane lengths are varied at both entry and exit in order to study the effect of different 10 additional lane lengths on roundabout operation. Similar length variations are applied to an 11 existing roundabout with known data after calibration and validation. Findings from this study are 12 intended to provide transportation professionals quantitative means of improving existing 13 roundabout operational performance and also help design future roundabouts with appropriate 14 additional lane lengths that yield better performance. While the design of an additional lane differs 15 from a flared entry, findings from this study can also be applied to flare lengths if they are 16 designed to operate in a similar fashion as additional lane entry.},

abstract = {This paper studies the routing strategy in a transit network with partial online information at stops. By partial online information, we mean that the arrival time of the incoming transit vehicles is available for a subset of the lines serving a stop. To cope with the partial information assumption, a new routing strategy is proposed and closed form formulae for computing expected waiting times and line boarding probabilities are derived. The proposed strategy unifies existing hyperpath-based transit route choice models that assume either no information or full information. Like many existing models, it ensures optimality when all information is available or the headway is exponentially distributed. The problem of determining the attractive set is discussed for each of the three information cases. In particular, a new heuristic algorithm is developed to generate the attractive set in the partial information case, which will always yield a solution no worse than that obtained without any information. The paper also reveals that, when information is available, an optimal hyperpath may contain cycles. Accordingly, the cause of such cycles is analyzed, and a sufficient condition that excludes cycles from optimal hyperpaths is proposed. Finally, numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the impact of information availability on expected travel times and transit line load distributions. Among other findings, the results suggest that it is more useful to have information on faster lines than on slower lines.},

However, the pivotal key to successfully establish 3 the dominance of the GPS-based travel survey in future is the efficient post-processing methods 4 that can generate the essential components such as travel time, trip purpose, travel mode, and trip 5 length as accurately as possible. This paper therefore concentrates on part of the geospatial data 6 post-processing: trip purpose derivation. Two released 2009 NHTS add-on data sets (Georgia 7 and Arizona) containing geospatial location data provide the possibility of imputing trip purpose, 8 validating the trip purpose model and further evaluating the model transferability. Multiple 9 classifiers are explored employing machine learning methods with 2009 NHTS add-on data sets 10 and land use data at both parcel level and point level. Different validation methods including 10-11 fold cross validation, within-sample and cross-sample validation are used to evaluate, test and 12 validate the developed models. Results indicate that the trip purpose models perform well for 13 Home, Work, School/Daycare and Shopping/Errands trips with accuracy above 80{\%}, but present 14 unsatisfactory results for transport someone, meals, social/recreation, family personal 15 business/obligations and other trips. In addition, aggregating discretionary trips into one trip 16 purpose category usually improves the trip purpose imputation accuracy. Furthermore, when 17 applying the models to a different geographic place to predict the trip purpose without any model 18 calibration, the models present non-striking model transferability.},

abstract = {4 The state of Maryland aims to double its transit ridership by the end of 2020. The Maryland 5 Statewide Transportation Model (MSTM) has been used to analyze different policy options at 6 a system-wide level. Direct ridership models (DRM) estimate ridership as a function of 7 station environment and transit service features rather than using mode‐choice results from 8 large‐scale traditional models. They have been particularly favored for estimating the benefits 9 of smart growth policies such as Transit Oriented Development (TOD) on transit ridership 10 and can be used as complementary to the traditional four-step models for analyzing smart 11 growth scenarios at a local level and can provide valuable information that a system level 12 analysis cannot provide. In this study, we developed DRMs of rail transit stations, namely 13 light rail, commuter rail, Baltimore metro, and Washington D.C. metro for the state of 14 Maryland. Data for 117 rail stations were gathered from a variety of sources and categorized 15 by transit service characteristics, station built environment features and social-demographic 16 variables. The results suggest that impacts of built environment show differences for light rail 17 and commuter rail. For light rail stations, employment at half-mile buffer areas, service level, 18 feeder bus connectivity, station distance to the CBD, distance to the nearest station, and 19 terminal stations are significant factors affecting ridership. For commuter rail stations only 20 feeder bus connection is found to be significant. The policy implications of the results are 21 discussed.},

abstract = {1 2 The introduction of wider stop spacing through the removal or consolidation of existing stops is one method transit 3 agencies can use to reduce travel time and increase reliability on many transit lines. A great deal of research has 4 been done to provide tools for determining optimal stop spacing, but tools are still needed to help service planners 5 determine the optimal stops to remove. Stop-level bus performance data provide the information needed to develop a 6 method for assessing the total benefits and costs to riders of removing individual stops. This tool compares the 7 benefit to through-riders in terms of travel time savings with the additional access cost to riders using the stop. The 8 tool was applied to a bus route in Portland, Oregon, using stop-level ridership data from TriMet, the regional transit 9 agency. The case study identifies three stops with very high benefit-cost ratios and discusses the effects of removing 10 those stops. A sensitivity analysis is performed to show the effect of changing the value of time factor or the 11 assumed time savings from each stop removal. Further research needs are identified and tradeoffs are discussed 12 regarding the use of this tool. Overall, the assessment tool provides a relatively simple way for transit service 13 planners to identify ideal stops for removal or consolidation.},

abstract = {The participation of a large and varied group of people in the plan- ning process has long been encouraged to increase the effectiveness and acceptability of plans. However, in practice, participation by affected stakeholders has often been limited to small groups, both because of the lack of reach on the part of planners and because of a sense of little or no ownership of the process on the part of citizens. Overcoming these challenges to stakeholder participation is particularly important for any transportation planning process because the success of the system depends primarily on its ability to cater to the requirements and prefer- ences of the people whom the system serves. Crowdsourcing uses the col- lective wisdom of a crowd to achieve a solution to a problem that affects the crowd. This paper proposes the use of crowdsourcing as a possible mechanism to involve a large group of stakeholders in transportation planning and operations. Multiple case studies show that crowdsourcing was used to collect data from a wide range of stakeholders in transpor- tation projects. Two distinct crowdsourcing usage types are identified: crowdsourcing for collecting normally sparse data on facilities such as bike routes and crowdsourcing for soliciting feedback on transit quality of service and real-time information quality. A final case study exempli- fies the use of data quality auditors for ensuring the usability of crowd- sourced data, one of many potential issues in crowdsourcing presented in the paper. These case studies show that crowdsourcing has immense potential to replace or augment traditional ways of collecting data and feedback from a wider group of a transportation system's users without creating an additional financial burden.},

The model accounts for the major factors affecting the 3 connectivity in connected vehicles (CV) environment such as transmission range, market 4 penetration, and traffic density. Using a 45-square mile network in Washington County, located 5 west of Portland city, Oregon, a microscopic simulation study was conducted using VISSIM to 6 model 15 scenarios for different relative traffic densities generated from traffic demand levels 7 ranging from 80{\%} to 120{\%} of the current demand level and three levels of market penetration 8 (5{\%}, 15{\%}, and 25{\%}). For 5{\%} market penetration, the simulation results showed a slight increase 9 in robustness as relative density increased initially, followed by a more pronounced increase. 10 The robustness consistently increased with the relative traffic density for 15{\%} market 11 penetration. For 25{\%} market penetration, a sharp increase in robustness was observed with the 12 increase in relative traffic density. This demonstrates the sensitivity of the robustness measure to 13 traffic density and market penetration. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to show the 14 significant effect of relative traffic density and market penetration on the robustness measure. A 15 nonlinear regression model was developed to estimate the robustness of the network as a 16 function of market penetration and relative traffic density.

abstract = {1 The identification of crash hotspots is the critical component of the highway safety management 2 process. Errors in hotspot identification (HSID) may result in the inefficient use of resources for 3 safety improvements. One HSID method that is based on the empirical Bayesian (EB) method 4 has been widely used as an effective approach for identifying crash-prone sites. For the EB 5 method, the negative binomial (NB) model is usually needed for obtaining the EB estimates. 6 Recently, some studies have shown that the Sichel (SI) model can be easily used within the EB 7 modeling framework and potentially yield better EB estimates. The objective of this study is to 8 compare the performance of the two crash prediction models (SI and NB models) in identifying 9 hotspots using the EB method. To accomplish the objective of this study, empirical crash data 10 collected at highway segments in Texas were used to generate simulated crash counts. Three 11 commonly used HSID methods (simple ranking, confidence interval and EB) were applied using 12 simulated data. False positives, false negatives and false identifications were calculated and 13 compared across the methods. The simulation results in this study suggest that the SI-based EB 14 method can consistently provide a better HSID result than the NB-based EB method. Moreover, 15 EB methods yield lowest error percentage among the three HSID methods. This study confirms 16 that the EB technique is an effective method for identifying hazardous sites. Based on the 17 findings in this study, transportation safety researchers are recommended to consider the SI 18 model as an alternative crash prediction model when using the EB approach. 19 20},

With the rapid development of technology, GPS, smartphone, 4 social media, etc. will become researchers' new tool to supplement or replace traditional survey 5 methods in long distance travel data collection. However, the advanced technology-based 6 method cannot provide all the necessary long distance trip information such as travel mode, and 7 trip purpose. Thus, the practical post-processing methods that can generate data on these missing 8 travel characteristics are essential in a GPS/smartphone/social media-based survey. Therefore, 9 this paper, focusing on trip purpose derivation, aims to provide a support tool for the data 10 collection and reliable methodology for post-processing the advanced technology-based travel 11 survey data. Machine learning techniques (decision tree and metalearning) are utilized to 12 estimate the trip purpose on the basis of available data sets including 1995 American Travel 13 Survey data and other supplementary data. Moreover, alternative trip purpose categorization 14 schemes and the effects of different attributes on trip purpose imputation are tested and evaluated 15 so as to shed light on the design of future long distance travel survey. Results show that with the 16 number of trip class increases, the model predicative accuracy will decrease, with the lowest 17 76.98{\%} accuracy for 4-trip-purpose scheme. Furthermore, if the passively collected spatial-18 temporal data is the only available data for trip purpose estimation, our model can yield 71.72{\%} 19 accuracy for binary trip purpose classification (business and non-business).},

An alternative approach is presented in this paper where a probabilistic methodology is used to analyze SCL length. This reliability-based analysis allows for the calculation of probability of non-compliance (PNC) for any specific SCL length, which corresponds to the percentage of drivers who may not be able to decelerate comfortably. Models are developed using different analysis methodologies, and are applied to estimate PNC at seven SCL sites based on speed and deceleration field data collected at these sites.},

abstract = {1 Multimodal urban transportation systems exhibit complex interactions among different 2 components including users, multimodal transportation facilities, supply-side agencies, and 3 operators. While these interactions are obvious, rigorous quantitative methods for optimizing 4 control variables across different modes of transportation on real-world networks are lacking. A 5 social welfare maximization model was established to jointly optimize bus fare, rail transit fare, 6 and private car congestion toll. We derived the optimality conditions and the second-order partial 7 derivatives to this optimization problem. Due to the complexity of the multimodal urban 8 transportation system, the social welfare objective function has no closed form and is very 9 expensive to evaluate. Thus we proposed a simulation-based framework for the objective 10 function evaluation and the optimization of three decision variables across multiple travel modes. 11 Several metamodels, i.e., mathematical functions that approximate the true shape of an unknown 12 nonlinear complex objective function, were adopted to approximate the highly non-linear input-13 output mappings in the urban system. This is the first study that develops a simulation-based 14 method for the joint optimization of transit and road network operations. In the case study, we 15 applied the simulation-based optimization (SBO) framework to the Sino-Singapore Eco-city in 16 Tianjin, China, using VISUM as the urban systems simulator. Results showed that metamodels 17 could accurately approximate the real objective function and produce good suboptimal and near-18 optimal solutions. The optimal combination of transit fares and congestion tolls significantly 19 outperform those under two different baseline scenarios. The optimal solutions also suggest that 20 extreme transit fares (either too high or too low) or congestion tolls are against welfare 21 maximizing objectives. The proposed method could also be applied to jointly optimize other 22 multimodal planning and operational strategies, such as investment and operational decisions 23 across different modes of transportation. 24 25 Keywords: Eco-city; social welfare maximization, multimodal urban transportation system 26 (MUTS), metamodel, simulation-based optimization (SBO) 27 28 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Public attention, opinion and hot topics can be captured in the social media, which provides the ability to predict human related events. Since social media can be retrieved in real time with relatively small building and maintenance costs, traffic operation authorities probably identify the social media data as another type sensor for traffic demand. One of those challenges is how to extract reliable traffic related features from big and noisy social media data. The other challenge is how to locate a feasible traffic study that fits well with social media data. In this paper, the authors aim to use social media information to assist traffic flow prediction under special event conditions. Specially, a short-term traffic flow prediction model, incorporated with tweet features, is developed to forecast the incoming traffic flow prior to sport game events. Both tweet rate features and semantic features are included in the prediction model. The authors examine and compare the performance of four regression methods, respectively autoregressive model, neural networks model, support vector regression, and k-nearest neighbor, with and without social media features.

abstract = {The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) supports a statewide network of intercity bus services, including five routes operated under the FTA Section 5311 (f) program. To assist with planning activities for the state's intercity bus network, MDOT conducted an on-board survey of intercity bus passengers in the state in Spring 2011. The Texas A{\&}M Transportation Institute (TTI) was retained to analyze the 533 surveys obtained from this effort. This paper presents the results of the TTI analysis of the MDOT Spring 2011 intercity bus surveys. Survey results showed that three-quarters of the intercity bus passengers were from urban areas while the remaining one-quarter were from rural areas. Most passengers were traveling for personal reasons such as visiting family or friends, vacation, or other personal reasons. One-third of surveyed passengers were from zero-vehicle households. If the bus service was not available, 59 percent of passengers would drive, while 19 percent would use an airplane and 22 percent would not make the trip. Among zero-vehicle households, 31 percent of passengers would not make the trip, indicating a key role for the intercity bus service in supporting personal mobility. Other demographic groups that benefit from the service include females and persons with annual household income less than {\$}20,000, both of which had a higher propensity to not make the trip in the absence of the bus service. The findings from the survey suggest that the Michigan intercity bus network is a critical transportation option for residents and visitors in the state and that bus passenger on-board surveys provide valuable information to support planning efforts.},

In this study, the authors investigate the correlations of environmental externalities and mobility measurements at signalized intersections. The metamodeling-based method, involving experimental design, high-fidelity simulations, and regression analysis, is developed in this paper. The high-fidelity simulations, from microscopic traffic modeling and emerging emission estimator, provide the flexibility of utilizing various intersection types, vehicle types, and other characteristics such as drivers' behaviors, fuel types and meteorological factors. Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is applied together with econometrics tools to determine the relationship between environmental and mobility measurements. The case studies demonstrate the operability of the proposed methodology and also set up the base for extensive application of simulation optimization to sustainable traffic operations and management.},

However, no factors accounted for the 9 possible changes of capacity due to novice drivers were provided. The primary objective of this 10 study was to develop adjustment factors to evaluate the impacts of novice drivers on capacity of 11 basic roadway segment. On-road experiments were conducted for measuring the car-following 12 behavioral data associated with novice and experienced drivers. Comparative analyses were 13 conducted to compare the spacings and headways selected by novice and experienced drivers as 14 they were following other vehicles. It was found that novice drivers prefer maintaining relatively 15 larger spacings and headways than experienced drivers do. These differences in spacings and 16 headways were statistically significant. Linear regression analyses were then conducted to relate 17 the vehicle speeds to the spacings and the headways for novice and experienced drivers. 18 Combined with the fundamental relationships between these two car-following behavior 19 measures and traffic flow parameters, adjustment factors were developed to quantitatively 20 evaluate the effects of novice drivers' car-following behaviors on capacity of basic roadway 21 segment. It was found that the reduction in capacity increases with an increase in the proportion 22 of novice drivers in the traffic stream. The presence of novice drivers may result in up to 13{\%} of 23 capacity reduction when novice drivers travel on the whole road with the average speed of 90 24 km/h. The validity of implementing the novice driver adjustment factor was tested against 25 measured data. The results of validation determine that the proposed adjustment factors result in 26 improved estimates of capacity of basic roadway segment.},

ABSTRACT 1 Automatic Incident Detection (AID) has been noticed in recent decades as a means of faster incident 2 detection. Despite the progresses that have been made in both technology and algorithms of Automatic 3 Incident Detection in recent decades around the world, in developing countries, due to the lack of the 4 infrastructure similar to the countries where these algorithms were developed, there has been no attempts 5 for development and implementation of such systems in their road control and management centers. This 6 research develops a few algorithms by using simple modeling techniques (Logit, Discriminent and Linear 7 Regression) accompanied by a couple of more sophisticated algorithms (ARIMA and ANN) and also mixed 8 models by combining the products of these algorithms. The traffic and incident data used for calibrating 9 and testing the parameters of these algorithms are collected from section of a freeway with 5 distant loop 10 detector stations (varying from 1 to 7 miles in distance) in Iran. This section lies in the first 35 kilometer of 11 Shiraz-Esfahan freeway. Because of the low-volume traffic in this section, there is no abrupt spatial or 12 temporal change in any traffic characteristic during an incident occurrence, therefore the traditional 13 approach of identifying the time period with the most significant temporal and spatial changes in traffic 14 parameters as the time period of incident occurrence is replaced with a new approach to enable the 15 development of algorithms. The outcomes of performance of all algorithms are analyzed and the results are 16 discussed. The elected simple algorithms have satisfactory false alarm rate and detection rate but produce 17 large detection times. 18 19 20 Key words: 21 Automatic Incident Detection, Loop Detector, Developing Countries, Low-volume Traffic 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Regions of the country where air quality exceeds the limits imposed by the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) are required to develop a plan to bring the affected areas back into attainment.

Many options (e.g., aircraft technology advancement, efficient operational procedures, use of alternative fuels, and others) are being investigated to limit airport/aircraft emissions. Evaluation of a combination of these options is necessary to address air quality-related environmental concerns effectively in the context of aviation growth forecasts. In particular, options considered should include alternatives to traditional Jet Fuel A, with special attention to use of ultra-low-sulfur jet fuel. As these options are explored, it is also important to understand and quantify changes in overall engine combustion emissions and their impact on the environment. This research will incorporate case studies at candidate airports to determine the extent to which alternatives to Jet Fuel A, including ultra-low-sulfur jet fuel, can reduce overall PM{\textless}sub{\textgreater}2.5{\textless}/sub{\textgreater} emission concentrations in a PM non-attainment area.

abstract = {A dynamic user equilibrium (DUE) model of heterogeneous commuters' travel choice behaviors including departure time and path and travel mode choices in a schematic park-and-ride network is developed. Commuters have three transportation modes to choose from in a peak period: private car, rail transit, and a combination of private car and rail transit (i.e., an intermodal transportation mode). Two types of DUE patterns are derived with and without the parking space constraint. In this study, an optimal park-and-ride parking fee scheme is proposed: commuters' travel choice behaviors arc characterized by the developed trimodal multiclass DUE model. The optimal park-and-ride parking fee scheme is formulated as a bilevel program in which the upper-level problem is to find the optimal parking fee for improving network performance and the lower-level problem is to evaluate network performance in equilibrium. Because the DUE solution may not be unique, the authors aim to improve the network performance in the worst and best cases. Through numerical tests, it is demonstrated that the parking space constraint has a significant influence on the departure and route choices of commuters and should be considered as an important factor in park-and-ride commuting pattern analysis and parking fee management in order to avoid a misleading decision.},

Studies have reported both the positive effects of rail transit resulting from improved accessibility as well as the nuisance effects from noise, pollution, crime, and unsightliness. The net effects of a rail transit system could be mixed, and there has been no agreement on which would dominate. This study used METRORail in Houston, Texas, and the Metro in Shanghai, China, as empirical cases and compared their effects on nearby residential property values. A hedonic price model with ordinary linear regression was used in the case study of Shanghai's rail transit lines. The Houston case study applied ordinary linear regression and multilevel regression techniques to examine the hierarchical structures of spatial data explicitly. The modeling results from both cases suggest that the overall effects of rail transit lines on residential property values are significantly positive. Notable variations of rail transit effects were also observed at various distance ranges and time spans.},

abstract = {Short-term traffic flow prediction algorithms in ordinary condition are popular in literature. As to traffic management systems in ITS, specifically the dynamic traffic assignment, the short-term prediction of multivariate fundamental traffic parameters, especially under abnormal conditions, such as collision, work and etc. are more vital and preferable. For this purpose, the study proposes a prediction methodology based on Multi-Scale Online Support Vector Regression (MSOL-SVR) algorithm to forecast traffic flow and average speed under normal and abnormal condition. The data provided by the Vehicle Detector Station (VDS) are separated into global data and local data. In normal traffic condition, the prediction based on MSOL-SVR with global data is preferable for the traffic flow forecasting for its good accuracy and efficiency. Additionally, it can provide the whole day prediction without the limitation of short term. The MSOL-SVR with local data is suitable for the prediction of short-term traffic flow and average speed, which has a good performance even in abnormal condition. The paper presents an application of the methodology to predict freeway traffic flow and speed in normal and abnormal conditions. Additionally, the proposed algorithm also is proved to be capable of road network forecasting and provides more accurate and robust results. The results indicate the proposed methodology has an optimal performance.},

abstract = {The growing plug-in electric vehicle (PEVs) market features new models of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) with varying battery sizes and electric driving range. How are these different models being used in the real world? A common assumption in PEV impact analysis is that PEV owners will maximize their vehicle utility by appropriately sizing their battery to their driving needs and by charging their vehicles as much as possible to recover the cost of the vehicle purchase. Based on these assumptions we expect PHEV owners who drive more to plug-in more and drivers of PHEVs with small battery to plug in more than owners of vehicles with a larger battery and similar driving patterns. This paper examines the assumptions presented using a survey of more than 3,500 PEV owners conducted in California in May and June 2013. The online survey includes extensive data on driving and charging behavior using web-map questions and includes owners of all PEV models in the market including more than 600 Volts and 800 Plug-in Priuses. The results show that small battery PHEV electric vehicle miles traveled (eVMT) are lower than larger range PHEV or BEVs not only because of the battery size but also as a result of the public charging availability and charging behavior. Higher electric range PHEV drivers and BEV drivers charge more often and report more charging opportunities in the same areas that smaller battery PHEVs could not find chargers.},

As the 3 men in the middle, freight forwarders interact with upstream cargo owners to facilitate their 4 cargo movement as well as downstream carriers to secure them large and stable volume of 5 cargo. They themselves aim at maximizing own profit or market share via the competition or 6 cooperation with other freight forwarders or carriers. When cargo owners contact for logistics 7 services, freight forwarders first refer to their pricing strategy to formulate quoted charge, and 8 then echo this charge together with the specifications of cargo movement. 9 This paper describes ideas for freight forwarders' pricing strategy design in a situation 10 involving interactions between cargo owners, freight forwarders, and carriers. The aim of this 11 research is to help freight forwarders formulate the price of their services using a game 12 theoretic approach by considering the best combination of available carriers as well as 13 competition with other freight forwarders. The real world interactions with other parties are 14 first represented as a dynamic and repeated game. Then, the concepts of Nash equilibrium in 15 mixed strategy (NEMS) and backward induction are used to find the best moves for freight 16 forwarders. However, we will only focus on the pricing strategy design of on non-vessel 17 operating common carriers (NVOCCs), freight forwarders that do not own any vessels. 18 Preliminary results indicate that non-cooperative behavior and competition among risk 19 neutral freight forwarders will lead to revenue loss for all freight forwarders.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; There are many users of signalized traffic intersections including passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles/trucks, pedestrians, bicycles, transit buses, light rail vehicles, snowplows, and emergency vehicles such as fire trucks and ambulances. North American approaches to traffic signal control are centered on general vehicles with either accommodations for other modes or exceptions for special considerations such as emergency vehicles. This paper presents a unified decision framework for multi-modal traffic signal control that simultaneously considers the needs of different modal users based on wireless communications, as well as traditional detection methods. This framework is based on a mathematical optimization model where each modal traveler can request service using priority requests. The mathematical programming framework allows multiple priority requests to be considered simultaneously based on a hierarchical control policy. In addition to modal users, system-operating principles such as coordination are included as priority requests within the decision framework. The system has been developed and tested using both microscopic traffic simulation and in a live network of six intersections in Anthem, Arizona using emerging technology developments in Connected Vehicle systems. The responsible operating agency must establish a policy for each equipped section of traffic signals that determines the relative importance of different modes of travel. For example, one section might be selected to be pedestrian and transit friendly and another section might be selected to be truck friendly. This priority policy would impact how the signal timing is adapted to accommodate the multiple active requests for priority. This paper explores the ability of the section priority policy within the unified priority control decision framework for multi-modal travelers to provide improved quality of service for each mode within the structure of the priority policy.},

Given a stratification of the entire domain of daily 21 scenarios into distinct scenario categories (or strata), the study addresses the optimal sample size 22 allocation problem in connection with stratified sampling. Existing sample allocation schemes, e.g. 23 Neyman's, are optimized for estimation of the mean. However, dispersion measures such as variance or 24 standard deviation are of greater concern for reliability analysis. Thus this study explicitly specifies the 25 optimal allocation scheme for the estimation of the variance. Using a specific characteristic observed in 26 travel time data, namely, a strong positive correlation between standard deviation and mean, an analytical 27 formula that approximates the variance of the sample variance is developed and an analytical approximate 28 solution for the optimal allocation for estimating the variance is derived. The proposed method is 29 validated using a simulation study and compared with other allocation methods in terms of the estimation 30 of various reliability measures. 31 32 33 34 35 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The 14 primary contributions of this research are (1) modeling attitude diffusion according to social and learning 15 mechanisms and (2) the evolution of these attitudes over time in a lattice neighborhood social network. 16 The agent-based framework presented is sufficiently general and flexible to allow building a more 17 complete representation of attitude diffusion and opinion formation within activity and travel behavior 18 choice dimensions, e.g. mode choice or departure time choice.

In order to resist this tendency, the government has 4 made a series of policies, which can be categorized into five policy packages. In the paper, their 5 respective emission mitigation potential is evaluated by the Long-range Energy Alternatives 6 Planning System, or LEAP model. Relevant government public files and plans are quantified as 7 model input parameters. The result indicates that the Fuel Economy and Emissions Standard 8 Policy Package is the most effective policy limiting CO2 emissions by reducing 7.4 MtCO2e in 9 2030, and the New Energy Vehicle Policy Package in reducing other air pollutants, such as NOX, 10 CO and PM10. Furthermore, two different scenarios were simulated. The forecasting result 11 indicates that emissions from urban transportation in Shanghai will increase linearly unless 12 combined policies being implemented. In that situation, per capita urban transportation CO2 13 emissions in 2030 can be stabilized around 0.57 tCO2e, still below the world average level in 14 2008. The experience in Shanghai emphasizes the importance of policy combination and 15 continuity, from which other megacities can also benefit.},

abstract = {The authors investigate the impact of polycentric urban form and decentralized employment on residential location decisions and non-work motor vehicle travel. The authors first present empirically testable models of the interaction between urban form and motor vehicle travel demand drawn from urban economic theory. Then travel behavior responses are modeled at the household level using a dataset that combines tour-based activity-travel data with land-use measures at the United States Census block group level. The travel behavior data comes from a sample of 15,884 households from the Florida add-on version of the 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS), as provided by the Florida Department of Transportation System Planning Office. Using geographic information system mapping software, the authors merge the NHTS data with parcel-level housing data to estimate accessibility measures. Preliminary findings provide evidence linking measures of polycentric urban form to changes in home-work commuter patterns and changes in non-work motor vehicle travel. The authors observe that residency status positively affects residential location choices, as indicated by selected residency tenure variables. Households residing in the State for less than two years have a 10-percent longer home-work commuting pattern. These households tend to have a more disperse activity space (a realization of the time-space prism), resulting in increased miles traveled and longer home-work distance. The combined effect of relocation patterns on the demand of travel results in an increase of about 21 percent in daily tour-level vehicle miles of travel and an increase of about 5.7 percent in the size of the activity space. These results provide evidence to support policies that would reduce the spatial allocation of activities and improve connectivity to other modes of transport at and around subcenters.},

abstract = {1 2 In recent years, there has been a renewed focus on improving rural transit operational 3 performance. However, the indicators and methodologies employed in analyzing transit 4 performance outcomes do not always favor the rural transit systems due to the unique 5 characteristics of rural transit operations such as the long mileage and service hours involved. 6 Consequently, the utilization of traditional performance measurement constructs that mostly 7 analyze transit operational efficiency may present skewed outcomes compared to the urban 8 transit systems. This study explores the use of both traditional and non-traditional performance 9 indicators and methodologies to assess level of improvement in rural transit operational 10 performance during the implementation of " Safe, Accountable, Flexible and Efficient 11 Transportation Equity Act-legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) policy. Traditional indicators 12 include effectiveness and efficiency constructs while non-traditional constructs were 13 mobility/impact constructs. Combinations of these variables are used to capture the unique 14 attributes of rural transit operational performance and reveal the socioeconomic impact on transit 15 operational performance during the period of policy implementation. 16 The study followed a before-and-after study design with an evaluative case study using 17 Mississippi's FTA Section 5311 program as the unit of analysis. Methods of analysis include: t-18 test with time series with regression analysis. A performance index was created to rate the level 19 of improvement of each indicator analyzed. The results of the analyses suggest an improvement 20 in the non-traditional mobility indicators, followed by slight implementation in operational 21 effectiveness indicators, and declining improvement in resource efficiency during SAFETEA-LU 22 implementation. This paper is a part of a broader study, which analyzes the impact of the 23 SAFETEA –LU policy provisions and strategies. This extract from the study, focuses on the 24 performance indicators; offers useful implications for policy and practice and should assist in 25 motivating continuous investment in transit programs. It also has the potential to be used in 26 analyzing the operational performance of other FTA formula programs. 27 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

A 16 activity-based methodology, supported by the ship-by-ship and real-time data from the modern 17 automatic identification system (AIS), was introduced to obtain accurate estimates of ship 18 emissions.

On the other hand, long queues and protracted wait times have become a substantial issue for cross-border travelers.

abstract = {Peer-to-peer (P2P) car-sharing allows vehicle owners to rent their personal vehicles to other drivers on a short-term basis. This departs from traditional car-sharing business models where the service operator absorbs the upfront cost of supplying vehicles in the fleet. The P2P model reduces these costs and provides an alternative to privately owned personal vehicles that are parked and idle for more than 90{\%} of the day. While the operational aspects of these programs are important from an economic cost perspective, their success depends on attracting enough demand and participants to function as personal vehicle owners willing to rent out their vehicle to renters. The situation is further complicated by ensuring a car-share fleet composition that meets the demands of renters, with respect to different trip purposes. This paper analyzes survey responses from individuals interested in participating in Getaround, a peer-to-peer car-sharing program in Portland, Oregon, with a particular focus on renters and how they relate to owners. Although the majority of respondents have not completed a transaction through the program, the responses serve as an initial glimpse at potential participants. A cluster analysis on the attitudinal responses of participants, independent of renter or owner status was carried out to identify different market segments. Differences among these clusters were examined with respect to the travel, personal and household attributes of the respondents. The analysis revealed four market segments composed of both renters and owners, though some clusters were predominantly one or the other. The clustering shows that renters tend to be more mixed along several dimensions relative to owners, including responses to attitudinal statements and opinions.},

The primary link impedance is travel time which rises with increasing degree of saturation. The VDF´s contain link specific input parameters like capacity and free flow speed as well as coefficients depending on the VDF-type. The coefficients are either taken from guidelines or are estimated using site specific data. Since free flow speed can be measured directly, mean values are typically used for particular links or link types. Capacity is not that easy to determine because of large variations and the stochastic nature of capacity. In this paper VDF´s for traffic assignment will be presented which are based on the assumption of stochastically distributed capacity. The VDF´s are suited for 2- and 3-lane freeways in urban and non-urban areas. The stochastic capacity depends on the probability of traffic breakdowns and was determined by the Product- Limit-Method and the Weibull distribution. The BPR-function was used as a typical representative of a VDF for highway assignment models. Two different models were applied. First, one coefficient was fixed and second both BPR coefficients were estimated by regression analyses using the least square method. The regression analyses provide suitable results for all measurement locations for the model with one fixed coefficient. The results differ if both BPR coefficients are estimated. This paper shows that the calibration of widely applied VDF´s in travel demand models will benefit from stochastic capacity analysis as applied in the field of traffic engineering. While the results are unique to the measurement locations in Austria, the methodology can be transferred to other countries due to the increased availability of long-term detector data on freeways.},

abstract = {A number of countries allow bicyclists to perform a right turn on red (RTOR) at some specific intersections to promote cycling by reducing the required physical effort and trip time. Implementation of a rule that allows a RTOR for bicyclists at some intersections could lead not only to local effects at those intersections where the rule actually applies, but also to supralocal effects. Using an experimental survey approach, this study explores whether a so-called 'spillover effect' of the rule can be expected. This effect would imply that allowing bicyclists to turn right on red at some intersections causes them to also turn right on red more often at intersections where RTOR for bicyclists is not allowed. The answers from 768 respondents indicate that respondents with a high awareness of the existence of a RTOR rule for bicyclists (experimental group) turn right on red significantly more often at intersections where RTOR for bicyclists is not permitted than respondents with a low awareness of the rule (control group). This indicates that implementation of the RTOR rule for bicyclists can indeed lead to an increase in red light running at other intersections. This might lead to safety issues at intersections where RTOR for bicyclists is not permitted, since road authorities could have decided not to allow RTOR for bicyclists at these intersections for safety reasons. The study also finds that men, young people and people who generally perform more risky cycling behaviours have a higher tendency to perform non-permitted RTOR. These findings are in line with existing literature.},

abstract = {Monitoring traffic conditions over large road networks has proven a significant challenge for many transportation authorities. However, the rich probe vehicle data that has become available in recent years has great potential to assist with such traffic monitoring. In this work, hydrodynamic theory and horizontal queuing theory are used to derive the joint probability distribution function (PDF) of vehicle location and speed on an arterial road for both under-saturated and congested traffic regimes. We specifically consider the effects of signal controllers (including on deceleration, acceleration and queuing) on the distributions of location and speed. This probabilistic model is parameterized by link parameters (red signal time, cycle time, and critical flow density), driving behavior (average deceleration and acceleration, average speed and variation of arrival flow and dissipating flow) and traffic state (arrival flow density) that are learned from historical probe data (location and speed) by maximum likelihood estimation. In a numerical experiment using data collected from private cars in Toyota City's Green Project of 2011, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test validates the use of the proposed distributions of vehicle location and speed.},

With only three parameters it is parsimonious, but most im-portant it has a bounded support which can easily be brought in line with behavioural intuitions, i.e. non-positive cost coefficients. Moreover, it is not associated with incredibly large upper (or lower) bounds approaching infinity and it can accommodate varying de-grees of skewness in unobserved preference heterogeneity over the population of interest. The proposed method is based on the principle of mixture densities and thereby prevents issues that arise when applying the inverse cdf-method.

The objective is to enable the benefit-cost Ϯ analysis to discriminate projects that differ in the risks they pose to the collectivity. ϯ Two main approaches co-exist: the first is widely used in financial analysis and ϰ consists in increasing the discount rate by a risk premium rate. However the transfer of this ϱ method to the collective welfare might prove difficult. An alternative approach to "standard" ϲ collective risk premium rates consists in using probabilistic scenarios, thus enabling the ϳ differentiation of projects based on their relative risk. This approach is based on the Von ϴ Neumann and Morgenstern framework of maximization of the expected utility. ϵ This paper focuses on this second approach. It first compares the use of Monte-Carlo ϭϬϬ simulations versus the use of a distribution of a limited number of scenarios.

Finally, the effect of the location of these arterials is studied. For this purpose, a tool is developed which can create realistic networks with preset characteristics (road length and road type). The exact network is created at random. Simulation shows that networks with similar characteristics have different NFDs. Also, networks which have arterials next to urban roads are created with the tool. Simulation shows that spread in the NFD is higher for these more heterogeneous networks and the maximum production is lower. The exact location of a major road crossing the network does not have a large effect. All in all, we conclude that the NFD is network-specific and must be calibrated for a particular network.},

The main goal of this paper is to quantify the interactions between vehicles during lane change in congested weaving section and try to incorporate them into vehicles' (merging vehicles, their putative leaders (PL) and putative followers (PF)) acceleration-deceleration models. Based on the findings by analyzing the US101 data, the yielding behavior of merging vehicles' putative leader (PL) for merging cooperation and the lateral separation between vehicles in weaving section (both features largely ignored in the past research) are introduced into our proposed acceleration-deceleration models. The visual angle information is employed as the stimuli in our models to present the effect of lateral movement of vehicles. The particular car following behaviors are incorporated in the modeling, such as the PF gradually changing its car-following leader from PL to merging vehicle, which depends on the relative locations of vehicles. The model calibration and validation results based on field data have demonstrated that the proposed acceleration-deceleration models qualitatively simulated the driving behavior of vehicles in the lane change process and obtained acceptable training and testing errors. To verify the cooperation behavior of PL in lane changing, a comparison result of the proposed PL acceleration-deceleration model and a base model implied that incorporating the effects of merging vehicle on PL into the models could enhance the realism of the lane changing model. Findings from this study could contribute to the understanding of interactions between vehicles 21 during complex lane-changing behavior.},

abstract = {1 The development of high speed rail (HSR) in the UK has generated a lively debate over a number of 2 issues regarding its benefits to the economy and the environment. This study aims to provide more 3 clarity over one such issue; the CO 2 emissions saving that can be achieved from a shift away from 4 domestic air travel to use of HSR. Four routes were chosen for analysis: London Heathrow to Leeds, 5 Manchester, Edinburgh and Glasgow. CO 2 emission calculations take into account a number of 6 scenarios representing the possible situation in 2033, when HSR services to Leeds and Manchester are 7 due to start operating. Results show that there is a significant potential to reduce CO 2 where all the 8 passengers on these routes switch to using HSR instead of air services, with the medium scenario 9 showing a 97.3{\%} decrease in emissions from such a shift. It is proposed that this would be possible 10 with a new business model being introduced by airlines in which they provide the same connecting 11 services to Heathrow, but replacing aircraft with the HSR service. This study also highlights that the 12 issue of a modal shift from air travel to HSR is more complex than just making a simple comparison. 13 It is acknowledged that there are also a number of other issues that need to be taken into account, such 14 as the lack of large scale technological solutions being available for aircraft and energy security issues 15 that could potentially affect important links between cities in the future. 16 17},

In Japan, drivers 3 should stop before entering a railway crossing even when any signals (flashing red lamps, bells, or gates) 4 are not activated under the current traffic law. This paper investigated the impact of deregulating the 5 presence of stop signs prior to entering railway crossings. Driving simulator experiments were carried out 6 to collect behavior data when entering the railway crossing with a flashing-light signal and an automatic 7 gate and when approaching the intersection with a traffic light. When the railway crossing warning (lights 8 and bells) was presented to drivers, we evaluated the drivers' perception of the current situation 9 (subjective assessment), their decision-making in regard to whether to proceed through the crossing or 10 stop (a combination of subjective and objective assessments), and their actual behavior (objective 11 assessment). Driving behaviors were assessed on the basis of driving speed and the timings of presentation 12 of the warnings. We compared driving behaviors at the beginning of the crossing warnings with the 13 behaviors when traffic lights changed to yellow at an intersection. The results suggested that drivers used 14 similar information, the distance to railway crossing or intersection and the speed of the driver's vehicle, 15 to make a decision to enter or to stop. In an optional zone where drivers could either pass through or stop 16 beforehand, they made the decision to pass through the railway crossing more frequently than was the case 17 at the signalized intersection. The drivers stopped inside the signalized intersection more frequently than 18 inside the railway crossing due to the longer reaction time of the former. Finally, we discuss which factors 19 might influence the difference of the driver behaviors between when encountering the railway crossing 20 and the intersection.},

It included the largest (108 mile) network of Olympic 7 Lanes removing a traffic lane for Olympic vehicles over a large proportion of inner London's roads. The 8 TDM program was the largest in history costing {\pounds}30M and included extensive advertising, travel planning 9 covering 611,000 employees, new trip planning web tools and 107M travel advice emails. This and a 10 substantial transit development program aimed to emphasise transit use and encourage reductions in base 11 load travel to increase capacity for games travel. 12 The TDM program warned Londoners to change travel for the games. This, a range of 13 (probably?) unplanned events and media 'hysteria' prior to the games acted to enhance the 'big scare' 14 effect. 15 The games-time impact on travel was impressive. Around 20M (+30{\%}) additional transit trips 16 resulted while road travel reduced by 10{\%}-30{\%}.

The accuracy and reliability of these evaluations depends 3 heavily upon the realistic modeling of road user behavior within the simulation software. Traditional traffic models 4 focus on the depiction of personal motor vehicles. However, as the number of bicyclists in urban areas continues to 5 increase, the need to realistically model the movement and interactions of bicyclists is rapidly gaining importance in 6 the accurate modeling of mixed urban traffic. In response to this need, a number of approaches to modeling 7 bicyclists' movement and interactions have been developed recently. 8 Selected modeling approaches that depict the state of the art in bicycle modeling are summarized. The 9 overall modeling of bicycles is divided into that of uninfluenced operational and tactical behavior and influenced 10 operational and tactical behavior. The ability to model bicyclist behavior on each of these levels is evaluated based 11 on the results of an extensive literature review and input from an expert workshop that included industry 12 professionals and academics with extensive experience in traffic modeling. 13 The results of the assessment indicate that although the approaches used to model uninfluenced and 14 influenced behavior on the operational level vary in their level of detail and ability to correctly reproduce reality, it 15 is possible to model the majority of behavior at this level. There is, however, a need to validate and calibrate these 16 models using empirical data collected from a variety of locations and traffic situations. The state of the art in 17 modeling the tactical behavior of bicyclists is, however, less developed. The uninfluenced and influenced tactical 18 behavior of bicyclists, which has received relatively little attention, is important to model accurately as bicycle 19 behavior is less constrained by road markings and traffic regulations. 20 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Merging behavior is inevitable for drivers at on-ramp bottlenecks and a significant factor in triggering a traffic breakdown. Empirical data were collected by extracting trajectories from merging vehicles and adjacent vehicles at two on-ramp bottlenecks in Shanghai, China. These data included 58 normal (free-flow) lane changes (NLCs), 36 cooperative lane changes (CLCs), 135 forced lane changes (FLCs), and 188 unsuccessful lane changes (USLCs). The objective was to develop and compare five discrete choice models (two multinomial logit and three nested logit) to understand merging behavior at on-ramp bottlenecks better. Estimation results showed that the two-level nested logit model considering three merging types (NLC, CLC, and FLC) provided the best fit. The traffic flow condition (bottleneck), the time gap and the space gap of the lag vehi-cle, and the speed of the merging vehicle were key factors when choosing merging types. The resulting quantitative models can be used to perform a microscopic analysis of the breakdown mechanism and develop a traffic simulation model. An understanding of the traffic flow features of recurring bottlenecks (e.g., on-ramp, off-ramp, and weaving section) on freeways forms the basis of traffic operations on these facilities. Merging behavior is inevitable for drivers at on-ramp recurring bottlenecks and is a significant factor in triggering a traffic breakdown (1–3). Generally, the merging behavior involves a complex decision process that drivers make routinely. The behavior that drivers exhibit during lane changing has considerable consequences on traffic flow efficiency and driver safety (4). Research also has shown that breakdown events appear to be associated with interaction between mainline flow and flow in the acceleration lane, which compete for the same capacity down-stream of the merging point (5, 6). Therefore, modeling and analysis of merging behavior at on-ramp bottlenecks improve microscopic analysis of the breakdown mechanism and help determine the decision process of merging behavior. The objective of this paper is twofold. First, the authors develop discrete choice models to describe merging behavior at on-ramp bottlenecks. Most previous lane-changing models were based on gap acceptance theory, which focuses mainly on whether a driver will accept a gap (7, 8); the choice of merging type (normal, cooperative, forced, or even unsuccessful) must be considered. Multinomial logit (MNL) and nested logit (NL) models are used to identify the deci-sion process of merging drivers. Second, the authors demonstrate the effects of traffic condition on the choice of merging type at an on-ramp bottleneck. Results of video observations indicate that traffic condition has a significant effect on this choice. Therefore, to better understand merging behavior at on-ramp bottlenecks, traffic condition and the surrounding traffic characteristics are considered in a comparison of the precision and significant factors of the discrete choice models. The rest of this paper is organized as follows. First, prior research on models of merging behavior is reviewed. Next, study sites and data collection for conducting this research are described, followed by an introduction to the discrete choice model. Then, different models are developed and their results analyzed. Finally, conclusions are provided.},

Due to the high coverage rate, it can be 6 used in addition to stationary sensors or even act as replacement when deploying stationary sensors is not 7 possible and/or too expensive. Though, one must be aware that cell phone signaling data is error-prone and must 8 be pre-processed in order to use it for traffic modeling. First, the positions reported by cell phone signaling data 9 may be inaccurate. Second, it could be possible that additional data is introduced to obfuscate the actual 10 movement due to privacy issues. We present three different filters to smooth the trajectories generated by cell 11 phone movements. For evaluation, we applied these filters to cell phone trajectories and compared them to their 12 corresponding GPS-based tracks. The evaluation data covers 4.933 automatically and 5 manually collected 13 tracks. The proposed filters significantly improve the speed and position estimation compared to the raw 14 trajectories of cell phone movements. 15},

abstract = {39 ABSTRACT 40 41 Travel time reliability is an increasingly important metric of transportation network 42 performance. Seven major sources of unreliability have been identified in previous FHWA 43 funded projects. In this paper we find that congestion induced stop time exerts considerable 44 influence on travel time variability and can be used as an intermediate factor for studying the 45 causal effects of those sources on travel time reliability. The relationship between travel time 46 variability and stop time is explored and validated using NGSIM vehicle trajectory dataset 47 collected at Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. It is observed that the standard deviation of 48 travel time per unit distance increases with stop time per unit distance. An analytical model is 49 developed based on the two-fluid and kinetic traffic flow theory. It is shown that the 50 proposed model is capable of capturing the positive correlation between stop time and travel 51 time variability. The findings in this paper could be further extended to network travel time 52 reliability modeling, reliability oriented signal optimization, and microscopic level travel 53 time reliability modeling. 54 55},

This study explored the effects of light rail and the built environment on the frequency of utilitarian walking (shopping trips) and recreational walking (strolling) from 1,303 randomly surveyed residents in five corridors in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Results from two negative binomial regression models showed that after controlling for demographics, travel attitudes, and residential preferences, walking to the store was significantly associated with population density, proximity to commercial land use, and street network interruptions (cul-de-sacs and dead-end streets). Strolling was also associated with street network interruptions. The findings carry important implications for planners to capitalize on built environment improvements around new light rail projects to increase rates of walking.},

Imbalanced transportation infrastructures and services (e.g., centralization of services 4 on certain areas and/or groups) may take away mobility rights from certain social groups, which can 5 aggravate undesirable social gaps. Equitable transportation services for different income, racial and 6 ethnic groups can reduce such gaps. This study mainly focuses on vertical equity because it is the 7 most important perspective in the planning of transportation infrastructure and services. 8 The goal of this study is to quantify vertical equity and then combine it with efficiency and apply 9 these concepts to a transit network design problem. A bi-level network design problem is formulated 10 with an upper level consisting of efficiency and vertical equity and a lower level that finds the traffic 11 flow pattern with mode share satisfying user equilibrium(UE). NSGA-II algorithm finds Pareto 12 optimal solutions for bi-level multi-objective network design problems. Three different scenarios 13 show meaningful differences, and the trade-off between efficiency and vertical equity is discussed. 14 When efficiency and equity are the joint objectives in transit network planning, the network 15 configuration is entirely different than when there is only a single objective.},

Jang et al. 1 ABSTRACT 1 2 This paper evaluates mobility performance by conducting comparative analysis before and after the 3 implementation of managed lanes on Korean expressways. Two types of managed lanes, bus lanes and 4 hard shoulder running (HSR), have been implemented as congestion management strategies. The analysis 5 shows that the managed lanes on Korean expressways enhance the mobility performance without 6 constructing additional roadway infrastructure. 7 Bus lanes were installed by converting median lanes to contiguous, concurrent-flow bus lanes on 8 both directions of the Gyeongbu expressway in July 2008. After bus lanes were in place, passenger 9 vehicle demand has diminished significantly due to travel time savings offered by bus lanes. This reduced 10 demand allows buses to travel faster without degrading traffic conditions in general purpose lanes. As a 11 result, vehicle hours traveled as well as person hours traveled on the expressways with bus lanes have 12 diminished. Since the inception of HSR in November 2007, HSRs have been installed at 23 sites to 13 increase capacity temporarily by converting hard shoulder areas to a traveling lane during congested time 14 periods. Traffic data collected from five sites where HSRs have recently been implemented show that the 15 congestion was mitigated and the speed increased as HSR went into effect. The findings from the 16 evaluation provide enhanced understanding about the operation of managed lanes and plans for potential 17 improvement.},

The procedure models time dependent capacity by specifying time varying desired speed distributions while car following parameters have default values. Then it calibrates two car following parameters, CC0 (stand still distance) and CC1 (headway time), to reproduce speed and queue length, and it checks the resulting capacity values (i.e. departure rates) with those from field data. The analyses showed that if field speed data is input for desired speed distribution, VISSIM does not reproduce the data for single-lane freeway work zones. Thus regression models were developed to guide users how to determine the input parameters of desired speed distribution. In addition, results showed that different values of CC1 and CC0 could be chosen to replicate flow rate, speed, and queue length data. Among these values, lower CC1 values must be coupled with higher CC0 value (and vice versa) in order to produce field data.},

Transportation researchers often work with limited budgets in environments with relatively low rates of computer and Internet access. Such conditions can preclude the use of the computer-assisted survey methods that are preferred for conducting research in industrialized countries. This paper describes novel methods for low-cost and high-quality data collection in a data-poor environment. The context is a stated preference (SP) experiment to estimate adoption of bikeshare and electric bikeshare in Beijing, but the methods are transferable. Two main methodological contributions are described. The first is a unique survey design that allows SP pivoting to occur within a single pen-and-paper interview (PAPI). For small- to medium-sized surveys, this design is often more cost-effective than traditional pivoting methods that require either a multistage PAPI survey or computer-assisted interviews. The second contribution is the demonstration of the use of affordable GPS technologies and publicly available data for the purpose of survey protocol enforcement and quality control. The paper describes survey design features that are of particular value for nonmotorized or semimotorized transportation research.},

Specifically, the demand and capacity variability are represented 5 independently using assumed known distributions. The proposed model is based on the 6 premise that users gain knowledge of the demand and capacity distributions through their 7 past travel experience. Using this knowledge, users seek to minimize their expected travel 8 time and choose a strategy (i.e., travel route) accordingly. They then follow this strategy day-9 to-day, independent of the realized traffic demand and capacity. The network may therefore 10 result in non-equilibrium assignment patterns, which is consistent with the lack of observed 11 equilibrium in field networks. The model is mathematically formulated, expressions for the 12 analytical link travel times and corresponding variability are derived and the uniqueness of 13 the assignment solution regarding link flows is proven. Numerical analysis is conducted to 14 demonstrate the performance and reliability of the model by comparing the analytical results 15 with simulation based assignment.},

The Smart Card (SC) data, from Automated Fare Collection system, facilitates the understanding of multiday travel regularity of transit passengers, and can be used to segment them into identifiable classes of similar behaviors and needs. However, the use of SC data for market segmentation has attracted very limited attention in the literature. This paper proposes a novel methodology for mining spatial and temporal travel regularity from each individual passenger's historical SC transactions and segments them into four segments of transit users. After reconstructing the travel itineraries from historical SC transactions, the paper adopts the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Application with Noise (DBSCAN) algorithm to mine travel regularity of each SC user. The travel regularity is then used to segment SC users by an a priori market segmentation approach. The methodology proposed in this paper assists transit operators to understand their passengers and provide them oriented information and services.},

abstract = {The cost of transportation plays an important role in residential location choice. Reducing transportation costs not only benefits the user but also improves the performance of the system as a whole. A direct impact of transit-oriented development (TOD) is the change in out-of-pocket costs for users, as well as the changes in costs of externalities and agency benefits. The prime mover for these changes is the shift in population when a TOD is built near train stations and the induced mode shifts from driving to transit. In this study several sites throughout New Jersey were evaluated to determine the cost of driving versus the cost of using rail transit to major employment destinations in New Jersey and New York City. Driving costs were composed of vehicle operating costs (including fuel, wear and tear, and depreciation), value of time based on the highway travel time from origin to destination, parking cost, and cost of externalities such as air and noise pollution, road maintenance, and accidents. Transit costs were composed of fares, parking costs, and values of travel time, waiting time, and transfer time. The likely changes in population resulting from the TOD were used to estimate changes in highway and transit trips. The costs were compared to derive the net benefit for transportation system users as a result of the TOD. Generally, TOD results in financial benefits to the user and the transportation system.},

abstract = {An increasing number of studies of choice behaviour are looking at Random Regret Minimisation (RRM) as an alternative to the well established Random Utility Maximisation (RUM) framework. Empirical evidence tends to show small differences in performance between the two approaches, with the implied preference between the models being dataset specific. In the present paper, we discuss how in the context of choice tasks involving an opt out alternative, the differences are potentially more clear cut. Specifically, we hypothesise that when opt out alternatives are framed as a rejection of all the available alternatives, this is likely to have a detrimental impact on the performance of RRM, while the performance of RUM suffers more than RRM when the opt out is framed as a respondent being indifferent between the alternatives on offer. We provide empirical support for these hypotheses through two case studies, using the two different types of opt out alternatives. Our findings suggest that analysts need to carefully evaluate their choice of model structure in the presence of opt out alternatives, while any a priori preference for a given model structure should be taken into account in survey framing. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

The model system is sensitive to a host of socioeconomic, demographic, built environment, and vehicle technology and price variables; this sensitivity makes it ideally suited for such an application. Coupled with a demographic forecasting model system that causes the population to evolve over time, the vehicle evolution simulator is able to predict changes in vehicle fleet composition, miles of travel, fuel consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions under a wide range of scenarios. On the basis of the findings from this study, future technological innovations (e.g., increase of driving range) and pricing levels (doubling of gas cost) will have greater impacts on vehicle fleet composition, utilization, energy consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions than more incentive-based approaches such as free access to high-occupancy vehicle lanes for alternative-fuel vehicles.},

This paper 13 calculates these costs and benefits by means of surveys, interviews and information available in the 14 literature. It also uses economic analysis of externalities to estimate the optimum number of these 15 vehicles for the country. It was found that, given the prevailing costs and benefits, there is currently a 16 surplus of motorcycles in the country. This result is robust to changes in the assumptions used to 17 calculate the costs. It is expected that the findings regarding the nature and magnitude of these costs 18 and benefits and the externalities analysis will become a relevant input for the design and adoption of 19 effective policies aimed at regulating and rationalizing the use of motorcycles in the country. 20},

Two types of situations arise in 5 the group gap acceptance behavior: a) all vehicles in a group cross in the same gap accepted by 6 first vehicle in group, b) some vehicles reject the gap accepted by other vehicles in the group and 7 wait for the next gap.

abstract = {Providing paratransit service for persons with disabilities is important for society. Transit agencies are further incentivized to provide such a service because provision of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) complementary paratransit service is a prerequisite for transit agencies to be eligible for federal funding. This service is expensive to operate, so it is important understand the factors that drive these costs and to be able to predict the effect of changes in demand and service alignment on total operating costs. The objective of this study is to create models that allow for the accurate estimation of the operating cost of a paratransit system as a function of demand, service quality, and network characteristics. This paper presents three analytical models to estimate the required number of vehicles, the total vehicle hours operated, and the total vehicle miles traveled by paratransit vehicles in order to serve the demand. The three components are the major sources of operating cost. Another model is adopted to estimate the total cost based on aforementioned variables. The models used in this paper are continuum approximations based on geometric probability that relate physically meaningful and observable input values to the operating characteristics of interest. The calibration method requires only one parameter to be adjusted in order to fit the model to observed data. The models and calibration method may be applied to many similar paratransit services throughout the USA and around the world. For the case study of New Jersey, these models have been calibrated with the help of available databases. Eventually, estimations are employed to predict the costs for two prospective scenarios of demand growth and change in service coverage.},

abstract = {1 The I-85 Express Lanes in the Atlanta metropolitan region are among the newest High Occupancy Toll 2 (HOT) facilities in the U.S. This paper examines travelers' values of time and willingness to pay for the 3 I-85 Express Lanes, compares travel times and travel time reliability in the general purpose and HOT 4 lanes, and discusses the benefits gained by users of the facility. The study examined nine months of toll 5 and travel time data for drivers who traversed the entire length of the Express Lane corridor during the 6 morning and afternoon peak hours. Median values of travel time savings were {\$}36/hour in the 7 southbound morning peak and {\$}26/hour in the northbound afternoon peak. The Express Lanes exhibited 8 reliability benefits relative to the general purpose lanes, but this study does not quantify the value of those 9 benefits due to the lack of stated-preference data. The value HOT users attributed to their time saved 10 exceeded the time-value using the average wage rate in the region. These travel time value results were 11 found to be similar to those of other HOT implementations in other locations. 12 13 INTRODUCTION 14 Congestion pricing continues to gain footholds in the U.S. in the form of High-Occupancy Toll (HOT) 15 lanes. Atlanta's I-85 Express Lanes facility, a sixteen-mile HOT implementation, began operating on 16 October 1, 2011. Prior to opening, the facility was a standard HOV-2 lane that routinely became 17 congested. The corridor now consists of one HOT lane in each direction (northbound and southbound), 18 that allow registered vehicles with three or more occupants to ride for free. Excess capacity resulting 19 from the conversion of HOV-2 to HOT-3 is sold to users willing to pay a toll for facility use. The lanes 20 are dynamically priced to control demand and maintain an average speed of 45mph. 21 As more HOT lanes are developed, both in the Atlanta metropolitan region and across the 22 country, an understanding of the way users respond to the lanes and the benefits they derive is important. 23 Such an understanding can inform future implementations, increasing their efficiency and the welfare 24 gains of the customers. In that spirit, this paper uses data from the I-85 Express Lanes to investigate 25 users' value of travel time savings (VTTS) and willingness to pay distributions. This avenue of 26 investigation is common to HOT lanes as the results can be used to help design pricing algorithms that 27 satisfy throughput and revenue goals. The results may be useful for other cities that are designing HOT 28 lanes, and for the extensions of the system that are under consideration in Atlanta. 29 In addition to comparing overall HOT and general purpose (GP) performance, this paper 30 examines willingness to pay based on frequency of facility use. The travel time and reliability measures 31 are compared for infrequent users, frequent users who use the Express Lanes between two and three times 32 a week, and very frequent users who use the HOT lane at least three times a week. The Express Lanes are 33 also contrasted with the leftmost GP lane in an attempt to generate the most conservative estimates of 34 benefits of the I-85 Express Lanes. Finally, the study compares the total value of time saved by HOT 35 users to the time-value using the average wage rate in the Atlanta metropolitan region. 36 37 BACKGROUND 38 On October 1, 2011, the City of Atlanta, Georgia opened its first HOT lanes on the radial I-85. The 39 Georgia Department of Transportation's (GDOT) HOV-to-HOT project converted almost 16 miles of 40 HOV 2+ carpool lanes into HOT lanes, one in each direction. The HOT lane corridor begins at the 41 junction with I-285, which forms a perimeter around Atlanta, and continues north into the surrounding 42 suburbs. The State Road and Tollway Authority (SRTA), the operating agency, sets toll levels based on 43 traffic volumes and average speeds of traffic on the corridor. SRTA's goal is to consistently achieve a 44 speed of forty-five miles per hour in the Express Lanes, and set toll prices to manage demand for use of 45 the HOT lane. The lanes have multiple entry and exit points, and the tolls are paid via electronic vehicle 46 transponders (" Peach Passes "). Prices are adjusted at five-minute intervals for the various entry-and-exit 47 trip combinations. Vehicles with occupancies of three or more travel for free in the HOT lanes, but must 48 also carry Peach Pass transponders. 49 The I-85 Express Lanes stretch 15.5 miles from Chamblee Tucker Road (south of I-285) to both 50 Old Peachtree Road and State Route 316 in the north.

Despite numerous 30 applications of different variants of BW SC, the stability of preferences across stages has not been 31 tested in any rigorous manner to date, with analysts relying on an assumption that only differences 32 in scale exist between stages. This paper fills the gap by investigating the stability of response 33 patterns across stages for sequential and simultaneous variants of BW SC. Using datasets from three 34 different studies, we show that, regardless of the dataset used, the obtained estimates are not stable 35 across stages, going beyond the differences in scale commonly taken into account.

This paper describes a modeling effort that focuses on 4 discretionary-event weekend activity-travel demand. This study bridges the gap in the literature by 5 modeling discretionary event type participation, duration of participation, and accompaniment 6 type jointly in a simultaneous equations model system. A joint discrete-continuous modeling 7 framework is formulated for analyzing these dimensions as a choice bundle. Specifically, the 8 combination of event type and accompaniment type constitutes the discrete component while the 9 duration of participation constitutes the continuous component. The model employs a 10 copula-based sample selection approach that ties the discrete choice error component with the 11 duration error component in a flexible manner. The data used in the paper is drawn from the 12 2008-2009 National Household Travel Survey sample of the Greater Phoenix metropolitan area in 13 Arizona. The results from the estimation process clearly highlight the presence of sample selection 14 in the joint modeling context. Furthermore, the results also highlight the flexibility of copula 15 models in capturing such sample selection. The best copula model results were employed to 16 generate hazard profiles for various alternative related duration intervals.

abstract = {Investment in new large transportation infrastructure is capital-intensive and irreversible in nature. Private sector participation in infrastructure investment has gained popularity in recent times because of scarcity of resources at the public sector, and because of the ability of the private sector to build, operate, maintain such facilities, and share future uncertainties. In such cases, there are multiple entities each with different objectives in the project. Traditional techniques used to determine feasibility of such projects and do not consider two critical elements. These are the need (1) to identify major entities involved in these projects and their individual objectives, and (2) the importance of analyzing measures of effectiveness of each entity in a multi-objective context. A framework is proposed to address these issues along with a set of relaxation policies to reflect the nature and level of participation by the entities. First, the feasibility of each single entity perspective is determined and next, a multi-objective optimization (MOO) is proposed reflecting the perspectives of all entities. The MOO results in pareto-optimal solutions to serve as tradeoff between the participation levels of the multiple entities. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used as a tool to narrow down number of options for decision makers for further consideration. AHP and MOO are integrated to determine the feasibility of strategies from multi-entity perspectives. The framework is examined on the proposed multibillion dollar international river crossing connecting the city of Detroit in the U.S. and the city of Windsor in Canada. This methodology provides a decision making process tool for large-scale transportation infrastructure investment consisting of multiple entities.},

abstract = {New data sources are emerging which can improve transportation planning and travel demand modeling efforts. An alternative data source in Washington is the Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) survey. The CTR survey provides a rich but currently untapped data source. This paper describes how this data source can be used in various applications, from studying commuter travel patterns and understanding regional trends to using the commuter flows to improve transit ridership models. The CTR data provides information similar to what was formerly collected by the US Census Journey-to-Work survey, though the CTR survey is a richer data source with a larger sample size. The Journey-to-Work survey was replaced by the American Community Survey (ACS), which provides a wealth of information but does not provide any information related to origin-destination patterns. This limits its use in many modeling applications. The ACS is further hampered by smaller sample sizes and subsequent higher uncertainty at fine geographic detail. The CTR survey responds to these shortcomings by offering a data source suitable for the kinds of analysis needed by today's transportation planners. INTRODUCTION There are a number of emerging new data sources available for use in transportation planning, particularly in travel demand forecasting. Examples include data from smart card transactions and GPS sensor data from cell phones and other mobile devices. Although these new data sources offer much promise, they have yet to be incorporated into planning studies on a large scale. These data sources may elicit privacy concerns or impart some bias due to likely users of such technologies. Other untapped data sources exist besides traditional on-board surveys and these newer technologies. One such data source is available in Washington State. In 1991, Washington State enacted the Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Law as part of the Clean Air Act in order to encourage alternatives to drive-alone commuting. This law requires certain employers to develop and implement a CTR plan to reduce Single-Occupant Vehicle (SOV) trips. In order to measure employer and regional progress toward that goal, the CTR survey was developed to collect data about commute patterns. While the state has used this data for reporting progress on statewide goals, this data has not yet been used for other purposes. This data set is public information and therefore available at no cost, making it particularly attractive compared to performing expensive on-board surveys. The first section describes the CTR survey in detail, including a section describing how the survey data was transformed into a format suitable for use on a broad range of transit projects. The second section presents several applications of using this survey data, including a detailed application of the data to improve the Sound Transit Incremental Ridership Model. THE CTR SURVEY},

abstract = {This paper formulates a multidimensional choice model system that is capable of handling multiple nominal variables, multiple count dependent variables, and multiple continuous dependent variables. The system takes the form of a treatment-outcome selection system with multiple treatments and multiple outcome variables. The Maximum Approximate Composite Marginal Likelihood (MACML) approach is proposed in estimation, and a simulation experiment is undertaken to evaluate the ability of the MACML method to recover the model parameters in such integrated systems. These experiments show that our estimation approach recovers the underlying parameters very well and is efficient from an econometric perspective. The parametric model system proposed in the paper is applied to an analysis of household-level decisions on residential location, motorized vehicle ownership, the number of daily motorized tours, the number of daily non-motorized tours, and the average distance for the motorized tours. The empirical analysis uses the NHTS 2009 data from the San Francisco Bay area. Model estimation results show that the choice dimensions considered in this paper are inter-related, both through direct observed structural relationships and through correlations across unobserved factors (error terms) affecting multiple choice dimensions. The significant presence of self-selection effects (endogeneity) suggests that modeling the various choice processes in an independent sequence of models is not reflective of the true relationships that exist across these choice dimensions, as also reinforced through the computation of treatment effects in the paper. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

Commute times are a complex indicator, as they vary based on the spatial distribution and relative proximity of different types of residences and employment destinations as well as the transportation system's options for connecting workers to jobs. Although strong scholarship exists that looks at commuting patterns by race and gender, racially-based differentials in travel time have not been addressed in the transportation research literature in recent years. To fill this gap, this paper introduces methods for the calculation of commute time differentials by race, travel mode and skill level using ACS data, designed to be replicable and comparable between regions. Applying these methods to a test region consisting of 153 communities around Boston, we present data detailing the extent and pattern of racially- based commute time disparities, including descriptive statistics and results of OLS regression tests. We hope that the identification of significant racially-based commute time differentials and the inequity of the resulting travel time penalty will contribute to a larger conversation around transportation equity.},

abstract = {Capacity analysis of unsignalized intersections is done primarily with gap acceptance principles. The vehicles on lower-priority approaches maneuver when a suitable gap is available in higher-priority conflicting streams. Although temporal gaps are widely used, some researchers advocate the use of spatial gaps. The focus of this study was on analyzing temporal and spatial gaps at four-legged, partially controlled interscctioas in India. Unlike in developed countries, unsignalized intersections in India arc not controlled with stop and yield signs with explicit priori-tics. The priorities arc mainly set by the situations drivers perceive. Field data were collected at three four-legged intersections with video cameras. Temporal and spatial critical gaps were estimated with Raff's, logit, lag, Ashworth's, and maximum likelihood methods. The values of temporal critical gap by different methods were found to vary between 3.0 and 3.9 s. The spatial critical gap values varied from 29 to 36 in. These values were smaller than the similar values reported in developed countries, indicating aggressiveness in Indian drivers. The insights from this study can be used for the capacity analysis of unsignalizcd intersections in India.},

abstract = {45 46 There has recently been an increased interest in exploring potential environmental 47 applications for vehicle telematics and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Green 48 routing or eco-navigation is one such application, which attempts to direct travelers to the 49 most fuel efficient (or least emissions) route rather than the fastest or shortest route. 50 Implementing such a concept in practice, however, requires computationally-efficient models 51 that can accurately and quickly estimate the likely environmental cost associated with a given 52 trip. In this paper, a simplified, macro-model for estimating fuel consumption, Carbon 53 Monoxide (CO) and Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) emissions is developed. The model is based on 54 only four, readily available trip attributes, which makes it ideal for implementation on smart 55 phones or GPS navigation devices. The model is first developed based on emissions and fuel 56 consumption data, calculated using an integrated TRANSIMS-MOVES model, for a total of 57 34,273 trips in the Burlington metropolitan area in Vermont, and is shown to yield 58 outstanding precision. To further validate the model, it is then used to predict emissions and 59 fuel consumption values for trips in the Buffalo-Niagara metropolitan, and the estimates are 60 compared to values calculated using the a second TRANSIMS-MOVES model developed for 61 Buffalo. The results indicate that the fuel consumption estimates were very close to the 62 detailed MOVES results, whereas the CO and NOx estimates were not as good. Nevertheless, 63 by applying appropriate adjustment factors, to account for environmental differences 64 between Burlington and Buffalo, the CO and NOx emissions estimates can still be made 65 more precise. 66 67 68},

In this study we present a Bayesian Ranking and Selection (R{\&}S) model for the Multi-Objective discrete Network Design Problem with Uncertainty (MONDPU). In this formulation, each solution to the MONDPU problem represents an " alternative " . The expected objective values of each alternative represents a vector " reward " which we estimate and maintain through parametric Bayesian beliefs. Uncertainties are modeled by independent normal distributions on each alternative. We iteratively update our belief about the objective functions and select the next sample based on information from previous iterations. We define a multi-objective version of the Knowledge Gradi-ent sampling policy and apply a surrogate-assisted approach with a crowding distance metric to ensure the computational efficiency and diversity of the final solution set. Case studies are conducted on the Sioux Fall network and Anaheim network. Results showed that our Bayesian R{\&}S model is able to identify a very di-verse set of highly optimal solutions under very limited computational budget and high levels of uncertainty, significantly outperforming the bench-marking NSGA-II algorithm in both convergence speed and coverage of the Pareto optimal set. Our model provides a highly practical framework for network designers/policy makers to make informed multi-criteria decisions. It also extends the Bayesian R{\&}S model and the knowl-edge gradient sampling policies to generic multi-objective cases, which provides valuable insights for a large class of similar optimization and learning problems.},

The system included two identical 3 microwave radar units located at opposing quadrants of the crossing, each unit covering 4 approximately the same detection area. The objective of the dual radar installation was to increase 5 system reliability by providing redundancy in the detection. The performance of each radar unit 6 alone, and then the performance of the two units combined, were assessed in terms of false calls, 7 missed calls, stuck-on calls, and dropped calls. The system was first evaluated based on the " best " 8 initial setup by the distributor. Then, some modifications were made using the results from the 9 initial setup, and the system was evaluated again based on the modified setup. The analysis 10 included data from 12 days, with more than 40,000 vehicles and close to 1250 train activities. The 11 most frequent type of error in the initial setup was false calls (0.54{\%}), mostly generated by bicycles 12 and pedestrians in the crossing. False calls increased to 0.96{\%} in the modified setup, mostly due 13 to activations generated when the gates were moving. Individual radar outputs showed a total of 14 27 missed calls in the initial setup (0.07{\%}) and 34 missed calls in the modified setup (0.09{\%}). 15 However, the number of missed calls dropped to zero when the outputs from the two radar units 16 were combined, illustrating the benefits of having dual units.},

Decisions regarding neighborhood type, building structure, and housing tenure uniquely contribute to the complexity of residential location. This study examined these residential location decisions and their association with the travel outcomes of miles traveled, person trips, and vehicle ownership for households in the Portland metropolitan region. A two-step methodology utilizing a factor and cluster analysis was employed to introduce a neighborhood typology, constructed of policy sensitive attributes and with commonly available archived data to enable replication in other settings. A set of linear regression models estimated miles traveled by mode, while additional negative binomial models estimated person trips by automobile, bike, and walk as well as household automobile ownership. These travel outcomes were compared across households segmented by lifecycle stage and in regard to light rail access. Results from this research revealed that households located in more urban neighborhoods exhibited lower vehicle miles traveled (VMT), conducted more non-motorized trips, and owned fewer automobiles. Moreover, households residing in multifamily structures tended to own fewer automobiles and walk greater distances with a greater frequency than those residing in single-family units; whereas, households who rented their housing units owned fewer automobiles and drove less often with lower VMT. Less instinctive findings suggested residing near a city center  rail station actually increased person miles traveled by bike.},

abstract = {Transit signal priority (TSP) strategy gives transit vehicles preferential treatments to move through an intersection with minimum delay. To produce a good TSP timing, advance planning with enough look-ahead time is the key. This,however, means added uncertainty about bus arrival time at stop bar. In this paper, we proposed a stochastic mixed-integer nonlinear program (SMINP) model as the core component of a real-time TSP control system. The model adopts a novel approach to capture the impacts of the priority operation to other traffic by using the deviations of the phase split times from the optimal background split times. In addition, the model explicitly accounts for the randomness of the bus' arrival time by considering the bus stop dwell time and the delay caused by standing vehicle queues. The SMINP is implemented in a simulation evaluation platform developed using a combination of a microscopic traffic simulator and a commercial optimization solver. Comparison analyses were performed to compare the proposed control model with the state-of-the-practice TSP system [i.e., ring-barrier controller (RBC)-TSP]. The results showed the SMINP has yielded asmuch as 30{\%} improvement of bus delay compared with RBC-TSP in a single-bus case. In a multiple-bus case, SMINP handles the bus priority request much more effectively under congested traffic conditions.},

abstract = {Over the last two decades the successes of Traffic Flow Management (TFM) initiatives have successfully decreased the airborne delay for the flights in the National Airspace System (NAS). The next opportunity for efficiency improvement is airport surface operations. Research on surface operations has focused on methods of analysis and metrics using time-stamped event data and surface track data to quantify performance of " normal " operations. This paper describes a method using time-stamped event data to quantify and diagnose " irregular " surface operations (i.e. surface counts in excess of two standard deviations from the mean worst-case surface count). An analysis of surface operations at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) airport for 2012 identified an average surface count of 25 active flights, with an average daily maximum surface count of 67. The daily maximum surface count ranged from 46 to 124 active flights. On 18 days the daily maximum surface count exceeded 2 standard deviations from the average (i.e. 2 = 86 flights). Fifteen of these days occurred between May and August. There are multiple patterns in the surface counts in excess of 2 : (i) reduced airport departure rates coupled with arrivals being delayed by a ground delay program (ii) changes in runway configuration, (iii) fluctuating arrival capacity (iv) high early arrival count with no or minimal capacity reduction (i.e. " blue sky days "). The high surface counts in 9 of the 18 days were compounded by interaction between arrivals and departures. These results suggest an opportunity to coordinate arrivals, gate operations, and departures to balance operations at the overall airport.},

Particular attention was 6 paid to changes in traffic conditions, including fleet mix, queuing and vehicle platooning over the course 7 of the study period, and the effect of these changes on PM 2.5 . Significant correlations were observed 8 between vehicle platoons and increases in PM 2.5 concentrations. Traffic state analysis was employed to 9 determine median PM 2.5 levels before and after the onset of congestion. A multivariate regression model 10 was estimated to determine significant PM 2.5 predictors while controlling for autocorrelation. Significance 11 was found not only in the simultaneous traffic variables but also in lagged traffic variables; additionally, 12 the effects of vehicle types and wind direction were quantified. Modeling results indicate that traffic state 13 (e.g. congestion) and vehicle type have a significant impact on roadside PM 2.5 concentrations. This study 14 serves as a demonstration of the abilities of very high resolution data to identify the effects of relatively 15 minute changes in traffic conditions on air pollutant concentrations. 16 17 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of TODs in the Washington, D.

Trip generation, trip length, and mode share were modeled in the two case study areas through the use of the most recent local household travel survey data and advanced econometric analysis methods. The findings showed that, overall, people living in TODs made more trips by all modes of transportation but fewer trips by auto. The results also showed that TOD residents tended to travel shorter distances by all modes of transportation, a finding that implies the selection of closer destinations for their activities. Trips originating from TODs had substantially higher nonauto mode shares in both Baltimore and Washington, D. C., after relevant socioeconomic and demographic factors were controlled for. Significant differences in the effectiveness of TODs in these two metropolitan areas were also found to be due to TOD locations, transit system availability and level of service, and TOD resident characteristics.},

Car restraint policies like congestion pricing therefore has a substantial potential to reduce traffic congestion in Dhaka. This paper investigates the potential response to congestion pricing in Dhaka using Stated Preference (SP) surveys where users are presented with hypothetical choice scenarios involving varying amounts of congestion charges and travel time savings alongside improved public transport options. Two case studies have been conducted in this regard focusing on shopping and work trips respectively. Discrete choice models have been developed to model the sensitivity towards congestion pricing and to quantify the potential effectiveness of this measure in different contexts. The outputs from the model reveal that implementing congestion pricing can play a substantial role in reducing traffic congestion, provided reliable public transport options are assured.},

The resulting inventory-based selective household activity routing problem (iSHARP) allows activity type choice, duration choice, activity destination choice, desired start time and delays, and scheduling of activities, all within an infrastructure network. A computational study is conducted to test 1) the sensitivity of the model to travel time variations and 2) the differences between using a single " average " day activity routing model versus a multiple day model. The first travel time sensitivity question is designed to answer a question that is typically asked of the public in garnering support for transportation projects. For example, in Toronto there is a campaign asking commuters " what would one do with 32 minutes? " Our model finds that in addition to the higher travel time, the 41{\%} commute time inflation on a synthesized population sample could lead to 3.9{\%} losses in activity participation (which would equate to {\$}9.4B loss if participation translates directly to {\$}240B local GDP in a region like Greater Toronto), and 3.4{\%} loss in activity durations, 9.2{\%} decrease in overall utility with 1.0{\%} increase in standard deviation, and 20.5{\%} increase in unsustainable living styles that may require migration or forced changes to life styles. Unlike an earlier study, the iSHARP model is able to capture sensitivities in activity duration. The effects are not homogeneous across days either. Travelers would systematically reduce activity participation (-6.5{\%}) and duration (-5.3{\%}) on the day with less utility from secondary activities (early day of the work week) compared to activity participation (-1.9{\%}) and duration (-3.2{\%}) (weekend type day with higher utility from social activities). The model is able to show that increasing travel times can result in consolidation of activity participation across days.},

The sidewalk assessment project that is currently underway at The Georgia Institute of Technology aims to improve walkability in communities by increasing information and methods of evaluation for pedestrian infrastructure. In conjunction with data collected on the sidewalks of Atlanta, researchers deployed a survey containing sample sidewalk segments to pedestrian transportation professionals. The survey asked respondents to rate four randomly selected sidewalk segments from a database of 40 possible segments and solicited individual ratings, what factors played into the rating, and a comparative rating with the other three sidewalks selected. A classification tree analysis identifies important variables in the expert rankings as the presence of cracks and lack of maintenance in sidewalks, gaps and level changes in sidewalks, and the presence of buffers and pedestrian amenities. A possible unforeseen survey bias is suggested by these results as all variables that showed to play a larger role in rating decision making were elements that experts gauged visually from video and image data, while variables given as numerical measurement information (such a width, grade, and cross-slope), did not appear as important.},

abstract = {Word count based on Latex: 4806 words + 5 figures + 7 tables = 7806 Abstract Mobile sensing enabled by on-board GPS or smart phones has become the primary source of traffic data. For sufficient coverage of the traffic stream, it is important to main-tain a reasonable penetration rate of probe vehicles. From the standpoint of estimating higher-order traffic quantities such as acceleration/deceleration, emission rate and fuel consumption rate, it is desirable to examine the effectiveness of the sampling frequency of current sensing technology in capturing these higher-order variations inherent in the traffic stream. Of the two concerns raised above, sampling frequency is rarely studied in the literature. In this paper, we study the two concerns of mobile sensing: penetration rate and sam-pling frequency, and their impacts on the quality of traffic estimation. A computational method is proposed that integrates vehicle trajectory data into a second-order hydrody-namic model known as the phase transition model (Colombo, 2002a). Moreover, we utilize the Next Generation SIMulation (NGSIM, 2006) dataset containing high time-resolution vehicle trajectories. It is demonstrated through extensive numerical study that while first-order traffic quantities can be accurately estimated using the prevailing sampling frequency at a reasonably low penetration rate, higher-order traffic quantities tend to be misinter-preted due to insufficient sampling frequency of current mobile devices. We propose, for estimating emission and fuel consumption rates, a correction factor approach which is proven to yield improved accuracy via statistical validation.},

abstract = {We propose a stochastic frontier approach to estimate budgets for the multiple discrete-continuous extreme value (MDCEV) model. The approach is useful when the underlying time and/or money budgets driving a choice situation are unobserved, but the expenditures on the choice alternatives of interest are observed. Several MDCEV applications hitherto used the observed total expenditure on the choice alternatives as the budget to model expenditure allocation among choice alternatives. This does not allow for increases or decreases in the total expenditure due to changes in choice alternative-specific attributes, but only allows a reallocation of the observed total expenditure among different alternatives. The stochastic frontier approach helps address this issue by invoking the notion that consumers operate under latent budgets that can be conceived (and modeled) as the maximum possible expenditure they are willing to incur. The proposed method is applied to analyze the daily out-of-home activity participation and time-use patterns in a survey sample of non-working adults in Florida. First, a stochastic frontier regression is performed on the observed out-of-home activity time expenditure (OH-ATE) to estimate the unobserved out-of-home activity time frontier (OH-ATF). The estimated frontier is interpreted as a subjective limit or maximum possible time individuals can allocate to out-of-home activities and used as the time budget governing out-of-home time-use choices in an MDCEV model. The efficacy of this approach is compared with other approaches for estimating time budgets for the MDCEV model, including: (a) a log-linear regression on the total observed expenditure for out-of-home activities and (b) arbitrarily assumed, constant time budgets for all individuals in the sample. A comparison of predictive accuracy in time-use patterns suggests that the stochastic frontier and log-linear regression approaches perform better than arbitrary assumptions on time budgets. Between the stochastic frontier and log-linear regression approaches, the former results in slightly better predictions of activity participation rates while the latter results in slightly better predictions of activity durations. A comparison of policy simulations demonstrates that the stochastic frontier approach allows for the total out-of-home activity time expenditure to either expand or shrink due to changes in alternative-specific attributes. The log-linear regression approach allows for changes in total time expenditure due to changes in decision-maker attributes, but not due to changes in alternative-specific attributes.},

Equity was evaluated by considering the impact of the VMT fee on various population 52 groups, based on socioeconomics, demographics, household type, location, and the ownership of 53 fuel-efficient vehicles. To estimate the impacts on various VMT fees, a linear regression model 54 was developed, using data from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey, that provided a 55 mechanism to estimate VMT in Nevada as a function of the cost to drive, among other 56 characteristics. The effectiveness and equity of two alternative VMT fees were compared to the 57 existing fuel tax system. These fees were calculated based on the average fuel efficiency of 58 vehicles in Nevada and the historical revenue from the state fuel tax. In general, a VMT fee of 59 3.3 cent/mile seems to be more effective than both the existing fuel tax and a VMT fee of 2.91 60 cent/mile. Although the 3.3 cent/mile has a slightly greater impact on various population groups, 61 its equitable distribution of the tax burden among 71.1{\%} of households creates a small average 62 cost increase of just 0.37{\%} per household. Thus, a 3.3 cent/mile fee would provide the necessary 63 revenue without significantly impacting Nevada households.},

To this end, first, a Multiple Discrete-Continuous Heteroscedastic Extreme Value (MDCHEV) model is formulated to allow heteroscedastic extreme value stochastic distributions in MDC models. Next, an empirical analysis of individuals' daily time use choices is carried out using data from the National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) for three geographical regions in Florida. A variety of different MDC model structures are estimated: (a) the Multiple Discrete-Continuous Extreme Value (MDCEV) model with independent and identically distributed (IID) extreme value error structure, (b) the MDCHEV model, (c) the mixed-MDCEV model that allows heteroscedasticity by mixing a heteroscedastic distribution over an IID extreme value kernel, (d) the MDC generalized extreme value (MDCGEV) model that allows inter-alternative correlations using the multivariate extreme value error structure, (e) the mixed-MDCEV model that allows inter-alternative correlations using common mixing distributions across choice alternatives, and (f) the mixed-MDCEV model that allows both heteroscedasticity and inter-alternative correlations. Among all these model structures, the MDCHEV model provided the best fit to the current empirical data. Further, heteroscedasticity was prominent while no significant inter-alternative correlations were found. Specifically, the MDCHEV parameter estimates revealed the significant presence of heteroscedasticity in the random utility components of different activity type choice alternatives. On the other hand, the MDCEV model resulted in inferior model fit and systematic discrepancies between the observed and predicted distributions of time allocations, which can be traced to the thick right tail of the type-1 extreme value distribution. The MDCHEV model addressed these issues to a considerable extent by allowing tighter stochastic distributions for certain choice alternatives, thanks to its accommodation of heteroscedasticity among random utility components. Furthermore, spatial transferability assessments using different transferability metrics also suggest that the MDCHEV model clearly outperformed the MDCEV model. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Summary This paper presents an integrated framework for effective coupling of a signal timing estimation model and dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) in feedback loops. There are many challenges in effectively integrating signal timing tools with DTA software systems, such as data availability, exchange format, and system coupling. In this research, a tight coupling between a DTA model with various queue-based simulation models and a quick estimation method Excel-based signal control tool is achieved and tested. The presented framework design offers an automated solution for providing realistic signal timing parameters and intersection movement capacity allocation, especially for future year scenarios. The framework was used to design an open-source data hub for multi-resolution modeling in analysis, modeling and simulation applications, in which a typical regional planning model can be quickly converted to microscopic traffic simulation and signal optimization models. The coupling design and feedback loops are first demonstrated on a simple network, and we examine the theoretically important questions on the number of iterations required for reaching stable solutions in feedback loops. As shown in our experiment, the current coupled application becomes stable after about 30 iterations, when the capacity and signal timing parameters can quickly converge, while DTA's route switching model predominately determines and typically requires more iterations to reach a stable condition.

abstract = {In the modeling of signalized junctions, a signal control is typically expressed as an on-and-off control in continuous time, or as a binary variable in discrete time. One way of approximating such signal control is through a continuum approach where the on-and-off control variable is replaced by a priority parameter. Advantages of such approximation include elimination of the need for binary variables, lower time resolution requirements, and more flexibility and robustness in a decision environment. It also resolves the issue of discontinuous travel time functions arising from the context of dynamic traffic assignment. Despite these advantages in application, it is not clear from a theoretical point of view how accurate is such continuum approach; to what extent is this a valid approxi-mation. The goal of this paper is to answer these basic research questions and provide guidance for application, by rigorously analyzing a network model consistent with the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model (Lighthill and Whitham, 1955; Richards, 1956). In particular, convergence of the on-and-off signal model to the continuum model is investi-gated in regimes of diminishing signal cycles. We also provide numerical analysis on the approximation error when the signal cycle is not infinitesimal. The convergence results and approximation accuracy are dependent on the type of fundamental diagram employed and whether or not spillback occurs in a network.},

abstract = {Bluetooth detectors are gaining in popularity as a cost-effective technology for acquiring travel time data. The sensors, which identify and record the unique media access control address of Bluetooth-enabled devices, can measure travel time when a device passes through the detection zone of two consecutive Bluetooth detectors. As with other automatic vehicle identification technologies (e.g., toll tags, automatic license plate recognition systems), there is a time lag because the travel time cannot be acquired until the vehicle has passed the downstream detector location. The increasing desire for accurate and timely traveler information and the desire for proactive traffic control present a need for accurate prediction of near-future travel times along roadway corridors. A significant body of literature has focused on this problem for freeways, but little effort has been directed toward signalized arterials. This paper presents a data-driven model for predicting near-future travel times on signalized arterials in real time by using data acquired from Bluetooth detectors. The model uses the k nearest neighbor pattern recognition technique to identify historical data from which an understanding of the near-future traffic patterns can be extracted. Unlike previous efforts, an objective approach was used to determine the variables to include in the k nearest neighbor feature vector and the optimal model parameters. The calibrated model was evaluated through application to a set of field data obtained from Bluetooth detectors deployed on a signalized arterial. The model provides performance improvements of approximately 20{\%} over a benchmark model.},

Many metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) have taken 50 regional leadership in reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with the transportation 51 sector. However, the direct connection between transportation and land use patterns requires the 52 integration of greenhouse gas mitigation strategies into local land use planning for successful 53 VMT reduction. This paper will review tools developed by two MPOs, the North Jersey 54 Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA) and the Delaware Valley Regional Planning 55 Commission (DVRPC), and discuss the practical application of these tools for county and 56 municipal level land use planning. The County of Passaic, New Jersey Master Plan provides a 57 case study that demonstrates successful utilization of the NJTPA Greenhouse Gas Management 58 Tool for the integration of greenhouse gas mitigation strategies into local planning. The paper 59 will conclude with a discussion on potential future applications of greenhouse gas inventory 60 tools and valuable lessons learned, including limitations of the tools.},

Toward sustainable mobility, personal mobility 3 vehicle (PMV) typically with purely electrically powered is regarded as a technological 4 innovation. PMV can be defined as a personalized transport vehicle with one-or two-person 5 micro-scale electric vehicle. Various types of PMVs have been studied and are being 6 implemented on global basis, and it can be expanded to a larger market, especially considering 7 growing population and traffic congestion in urban application, and growing emphasis on 8 vulnerable populations such as the aged or disabled. In addition, applications of PMVs can 9 include the car sharing application, convenient transfer within stations or inter-modal application, 10 local city tours and other short-distance driving areas. While the acceptability of a new transport 11 system should be evaluated in view of users', social, and economic viewpoints, the strategic 12 planning to verify expected opportunity and challenge should be developed in earlier phase of 13 R{\&}D. In order to derive society's preferences and awareness on PMV as a new segment of 14 vehicle market and innovative sustainable mobility solution, a systematic evaluation planning is 15 important. In this paper, the current status of PMV regulations and policies, and the 16 technological and social factors that are related to PMV will be discussed to enhance PMV 17 diffusion to the market. In addition to the discussion on acceptability and technological 18 advancements of PMVs, a strategic proposal for establishing a test-bed ensuring PMV promotion 19 is proposed and discussed. 20 21},

abstract = {Bluetooth detectors are becoming increasingly popular as a technology for acquiring travel time data. However, these data include outliers that are caused by several factors, and a robust outlier detection algorithm is needed for filtering out the outliers. Arterial roadways present a particularly challenging environment because the traffic control devices introduce a large amount of variability to the measured individual travel times and because of the prevalence of other sources of error (e.g., en route stops, Bluetooth-enabled devices not in vehicles). This paper presents a new adaptive outlier detection algorithm that is proactive rather than reactive. Unlike conventional reactive algorithms that rely solely on recent data, the proposed algorithm uses both historical data and current data to predict the validity window. The performance characteristics of the proposed algorithm are illustrated, and field data from a signalized arterial are used to compare the proposed algorithm and a benchmark algorithm. The results show that the proposed model is superior to the benchmark model and that the model performs well across a wide range of traffic conditions.},

This paper details optimization strategies that can be utilized to 3 minimize energy consumption of PHEVs even more through an information exchange between 4 PHEVs and infrastructure agents supported by the connected vehicle technology (CVT). While 5 an earlier research by the authors focused on a freeway scenario, this study developed strategies 6 for an urban scenario in which frequent 'stop-and-go' conditions exist. Three strategies were 7 considered in this study based on different types of information availability; only signal timing 8 information was available in Strategy One, only headway information was available in Strategy 9 Two, and both signal timing and headway information were available in Strategy Three. The 10 performance of PHEVs that received no real-time information, either for Strategy One, Strategy 11 Two or Strategy Three, was used as the base case to evaluate each strategy supported by CVT. 12 The optimization strategies resulted in energy consumption savings ranging from 60{\%} to 76{\%}. 13 An analysis with various levels of penetration of CVT-supported PHEVs in the traffic was 14 conducted to demonstrate the impact of these optimization strategies with their increased market 15 share. For a case study network, the authors found a linear trend between energy savings and 16 penetration rate of CVT supported PHEVs. With the increase in volume of CVT supported 17 PHEVs, the performance of all three strategies remained consistent. The Strategy Three in which 18 signal timing and headway data were provided to CVT supported PHEVs, resulted in about 31{\%} 19 to 35{\%} energy savings with 30{\%} penetration of CVT supported PHEVs at the peak hour volume. 20},

abstract = {This paper focuses on the mode choice of workers in Chennai city. The main objectives of the study are to investigate potential variation across respondents in the consideration of alternatives in the choice set; study the preference and response heterogeneity associated with contextual factors namely, captivity status and the presence of copassengers; examine whether and how these heterogeneity effects differ based on alternative choice set representations. This study is motivated by the following considerations. Existing studies that account for these contextual differences mainly only capture the preference heterogeneity or impose unrealistic restrictions on the utility of non-automobile modes for joint (copassengers {\textgreater} 0) trips. Disregarding preference or response heterogeneity, when present, can lead to poor model fit, erroneous forecasts and misleading policy inferences. Second, each of these three sources of heterogeneity has been studied by researchers to some extent, but in isolation. It is plausible that these three contextual effects are inter-dependent, and need to be studied together to disentangle the effect of each. The performance of alternative models with fixed, deterministically variable, and probabilistically variable choice sets is evaluated. Factors influencing the consideration of alternatives are also identified in this empirical context. Unlike many studies, where captivity is represented by a binary variable, behavioral differences across three levels of captivity (captive by vehicle ownership, captive by driving knowledge, and semi-captive) are investigated. Further, the effect of preference and response heterogeneity is incorporated simultaneously. Finally, the interaction between contextual and choice set heterogeneity is also empirically analyzed. The results show strong evidence of choice set variability and contextual heterogeneity in this empirical context and have important policy implications.},

abstract = {Smart growth policy and planning have tended to emphasize urban centers and regions, yet rural communities can also be important sites of innovation. Recent work demonstrated that these communities had surprisingly high levels of current and potential nonmotorized travel. Legislation in California mandates reductions in greenhouse gas emissions across all of the state's metropolitan planning organization (MPO) regions, including the heavily rural San Joaquin Valley. Advocates for rural communities are finding common cause with more traditional environmental organizations around the vision of investing in and enhancing extant rural places as an alternative to leapfrog patterns of urban and suburban sprawl. Because of existing patterns of extreme disparity and legion underserved unincorporated communities, analyses that can help integrate social equity within regional planning are needed to serve and empower rural residents. This paper presents the results of several new analyses of the social equity dimensions of regional transportation plans in the San Joaquin Valley. Activity-based travel model data were used to analyze equity, with a particular focus placed on eight disadvantaged unincorporated communities identified by community advocates to be important demonstration sites. The investigators showed how improvements to traditional equity analysis could enhance the consideration of equity in the planning process and compared the results developed by innovative techniques with those obtained by use of their traditional counterparts. The methods outlined here can make substantial contributions to reduce disparities in rural communities, which would likely be overlooked in typical regional equity analyses because of their small size, and offer lessons for MPOs serving rural areas across the country.},

One possible way to 2 achieve this is a combined effort from activity-based simulation and GIS-based spatial analysis. 3 Existing research however lacks either the prediction of travel behavior from local context in the 4 simulation or the encapsulation of sub-local differences in such predictions. The paper using a GIS-5 based spatial analysis aims to examine whether an activity-based model system simulates activity-6 travel behavior that reflects geographical characteristics of the study area at the level of Traffic 7 Analysis Zone (TAZ). To this end, data was collected from Household Travel Survey in Seoul 8 Metropolitan Area (SMA). FEATHERS Seoul (FS) synthesized population and simulated activity-9 travel behavior in the context of SMA for the base year of 2010 and the target year of 2030, 10 respectively. A GIS-based spatial analysis was then applied to the resultant simulated activity-travel 11 behavior. The major findings are following. First, spatial distribution of homogeneous simulated 12 activity-travel groups distinguished three geographical areas in SMA with clear local contexts. 13 Secondly, the changes in activity-travel behavior between the two distant years were in accordance 14 with expectation along the social changes. Finally, global regression and geographically weighted 15 regression respectively showed that the -association between activity-travel behavior and 16 geographical characteristics is well supported across the study area and that localized regression 17 relationships between TAZ variables and travel behavior also exists. The latter implies that a fine-18 tuning of activity-travel simulation is required for local transportation policy development.},

abstract = {Motorcycle ridership has increased globally. Its high presence in traffic accidents has led to its study from the safety perspective. Its role in traffic congestion and road performance is, nevertheless, less known. Studies made in the latter aspect have shown divergent results, without leading to a general consensus. In Colombia, the annual rate of motorcycle ownership increase (15{\%}) is the highest in South America, and to the year 2009 motorcycles already represented 45{\%} of the national motorized fleet. The lack of knowledge of the effects of motorcycles on road performance and congestion leads to inaccuracies in road network planning and design in countries with high ridership of these vehicles. This work studies motorcycles impact in traffic congestion by determining its Passenger Car Equivalence (PCEm) in an urban road of three lanes, zero slope, uninterrupted flow and 3,2 m lane width. It was found that PCEm decreases as passenger cars density increases due to an increase in motorcycle filtering. During stable flow, the average PCEm was 0,29, whereas unstable flow showed an average PCEm of 0,05. Average PCEm observed for all regimes was 0,16. According to this, it is concluded that traditional PCEm used in Colombia (PCEm = 0,5) is not accurate and overestimates motorcycles impact on traffic. It is also concluded that the impact of motorcycles on congestion, for the observed traffic compositions, is negligible when filtering. Thus, from the traffic perspective, motorcycles can be beneficial to society for they, in certain conditions, allow people to dodge congestion and keep moving.},

abstract = {A new facility location model and a solution algorithm are proposed that feature (1) itinerary-interception instead of flow-interception; (2) stochastic demand as dynamic service requests; and (3) queueing delay. These features are essential to analyze battery-powered electric shared-ride taxis operating in a connected, centralized dispatch manner. The model and solution method are based on a bi-level, simulation-optimization framework that combines an upper level multiple-server allocation model with queueing delay and a lower level dispatch simulation based on earlier work by Jung and Jayakrishnan. The solution algorithm is tested on a fleet of 600 shared-taxis in Seoul, Korea, spanning 603km2, a budget of 100 charging stations, and up to 22 candidate charging locations, against a benchmark "na{\"{i}}ve" genetic algorithm that does not consider cyclic interactions between the taxi charging demand and the charger allocations with queue delay. Results show not only that the proposed model is capable of locating charging stations with stochastic dynamic itinerary-interception and queue delay, but that the bi-level solution method improves upon the benchmark algorithm in terms of realized queue delay, total time of operation of taxi service, and service request rejections. Furthermore, we show how much additional benefit in level of service is possible in the upper-bound scenario when the number of charging stations is unbounded. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The transit route network design problem and its variants, aiming for economically viable and efficient transit routes in urban areas, has been attracting many contributions in recent years and continues to be an active research field. This activity is mainly caused by the intractability of the underlying optimization problems in large-scale transportation networks, generally leading to the use of heuristic schemes to build good practical solutions. A relationship between the transit route network design problem and the problem of data collection in wireless sensor networks is presented, and an innovative solution approach is proposed based on a recently proposed algorithm in that domain. The original solution algorithm is adapted to urban transportation networks and tests are carried out on large-scale data sets on a single-route variant of the transit route network design problem. The results obtained show that the solution approach can be efficiently tuned to meet specific route design objectives and provide balanced solutions.},

The South Carolina DOT identified a need to develop a comprehensive training program for professional service contract managers to support consistent and efficient execution of department contracts. The objectives of this study were to develop a training program for South Carolina DOT professional services contract managers and to evaluate the training program for statewide adoption. The study resulted in the development of a comprehensive training program to ensure that current and future South Carolina DOT contract managers across the department procure and administer professional services contracts with consistency and effectiveness. Lessons learned and issues identified during development of the training program by an external research team, with oversight by a South Carolina DOT steering committee, are discussed. The training was implemented with South Carolina DOT contract managers in a pilot training session that included contract managers and their supervisors. This paper's presentation of the training program's development process and unique experiences can be applied to other state DOTs to support the improvement of their procurement and administrative processes.},

The objective is to minimize the total exposure (duration and severity) to the threat for all evacuees during the evacuation. The problem is formulated as a Minimum Cost Dynamic Flow (MCDF) problem, coupled with traffic dynamic constraints. The traffic flow dynamic constraints are enforced by the well-known Point Queue (PQ) and Spatial Queue (SQ) models in a time expanded network presentation. The key to efficiency of the proposed method is that for any feasible solution, the algorithm can find and cancel multiple negative cycles, including the cycle with the largest negative cost, by a single shortest path run. This is made possible by a applying a proposed transformation to the original problem.},

Capacity is a crucial parameter in the calibration of traffic flow models utilized as part 4 of dynamic traffic assignment modeling. The Highway Capacity Manual has been used as the 5 authoritative source of defining and estimating capacity in the US. With increased traffic detector 6 data availability in recent years, it is now feasible to locally measure capacity at bottleneck spots 7 utilizing different methods. 8 This paper investigates the benefits and necessity of implementing DTA in the analysis of 9 advanced strategies, such as managed lanes, and the importance of the calibration of the 10 associated traffic model parameters. In this regard, the paper illustrates the importance of coding 11 capacity based on detector measurements in DTA tools, particularly when there is evidence that 12 the modeled corridor capacity is lower than HCM-based estimates. This paper also demonstrates 13 the shortcomings of utilizing the traffic flow model of the static assignment tools for assessing 14 managed lanes, even when the measured capacity values are coded, thus illustrating the need to 15 utilize simulation-based DTA modeling for such assessments.},

abstract = {A stochastic modeling approach is proposed to characterize battery elec- tric vehicle (BEV) drivers' behavior. The approach uses longitudinal travel data and thus allows more realistic analysis of the impact of the charging infrastructure on BEV feasibility. BEV feasibility is defined as the prob- ability that the ratio of the distance traveled between charges to the BEV range is kept within a comfort level (i.e., drivers are comfortable with driv- ing the BEV when the battery's state of charge is above a certain level). When the ratio exceeds the comfort level, travel adaptation is needed— use of a substitute vehicle, choice of an alternative transportation mode, or cancellation of a trip. The proposed stochastic models are applied to quantify BEV feasibility at different charging infrastructure deployment levels with the use of GPS-based longitudinal travel data collected in the Seattle, Washington, metropolitan area. In the Seattle case study, the range of comfort level was found to be critical. If BEV drivers were comfortable with using all the nominal range, about 10{\%} of the drivers needed no or little travel adaptation (i.e., they made changes on less than 0.5{\%} of travel days), and almost 50{\%} of the drivers needed travel adaptation on up to 5{\%} of the sampled days. These percentages dropped by half when the drivers were only comfortable with using up to 80{\%} of the range. In addi- tion, offering opportunities for one within-day recharge can significantly increase BEV feasibility, provided that the drivers were willing to make some travel adaptation (e.g., up to 5{\%} of drivers in the analysis).

Through the proposed framework, 4 one can evaluate the performance of bias-correction by evaluating the legitimacy of density estimates 5 generated with bias-corrected counts. To test this framework, traffic data for a 1.2km-long freeway site 6 (on Interstate 5 Northbound in Sacramento) were collected over 30 weekdays both from its loop detectors 7 and from probe vehicles traversing it. These heterogeneous traffic data in combination were processed to 8 construct speed-density as well as speed-occupancy plots for individual freeway segments constituting the 9 study site. The test outcome turns out quite promising if we consider that probe data used for this study 10 show low average penetration rates, amounting to only three or four vehicle trajectories per hour. A 11 secondary purpose of this study is to develop and test a heuristic method to correct count biases based on 12 the conservation-of-vehicles principle. This bias-correction approach is designed to distribute total count-13 biases, accumulated at erroneous detectors, over all the intervening 30-second time intervals in proportion 14 to the counts newly added at the problematic detectors during each time interval. This approach can be 15 refined by grouping time intervals as needed to make the proportional bias-correction formula tailored for 16 each time-interval group. This refined bias-correction turns out to perform properly in most cases. 17 18},

Congestion on the platforms, poor condition of the pavement and interaction between vehicles can affect the operation of the buses. Deterministic formulas are not able to include such phenomena on the capacity estimation. For the development of this research, 3 VISSIM models were built and calibrated in order to calculate the capacity of 3 different locations on a BRT system. Each model corresponds to a Transmilenio component: 1) A Station 2) An intersection and 3) A section of a trunk corridor. The research outcomes show how the use of formulas and deterministic conditions can yield very different results of the capacity of a transport system compared to the micro-simulation model results. This confirms the need for the use of stochastic elements in the estimation of a bus system capacity. Although this conceptual difference was already known in the literature, this study does quantify the differences in capacity when interaction between vehicles and randomness of bus system operation are included},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; The role of cycling in promoting better transport, health, social and environmental outcomes is well documented. However, the quantification of these benefits is not well established. This is mainly due to a lack of rigorous methodologies and guidelines available to appraise cycling initiatives, and practical difficulties in estimating cycling demand. In this paper the authors attempt to address this need by developing predictive models of cycle demand, relative to other transport modes, that capture not only the impacts of observed characteristics such as age and travel time but also the role of attitudes and perceptions. Using data from a stated preference survey, the authors estimate a hybrid choice model for cycle use that incorporates the role of attitudes towards cycling, perceptions of the image associated with cycling, and the stress arising from safety concerns. Model results indicate that the latent attitudes and perceptions explain an important part of the non-observable utility in a simple multinomial logit choice model. The authors also demonstrate policy analysis using the hybrid choice model, which allows comparisons of {\^{a}}€˜hard{\^{a}}€™ policies such as the provision of parking facilities against {\^{a}}€˜soft{\^{a}}€™ measures such as cycle promotion schemes.},

The VISSIM simulation tool and detailed field data collected at four operational DCDs in the United States help to describe modeling challenges, calibration steps, and validation results in the form of delay, travel time, and queuing estimates. DCD interchanges are rapidly being deployed across the United States, accelerated by their ability to process high volumes of especially left-turning traffic at interchanges at a greatly reduced construction cost as that of other interchange alternatives. In the absence of an analytical methodology for evaluating these interchanges, simulation currently represents the only option for evaluating the operational performance of DCDs. Although other research has applied simulation to DCD evaluation, this study is able to present detailed validation results from field data collected at four fully operational U.S. DCDs. The results show that the operations of DCDs can largely be replicated in a simulation environment but that care needs to be taken for properly setting speed and routing decisions throughout the DCD network. The analysis further show that validation is more readily achieved over an extended route analysis, with increasing difficulties for short segment validation. The validation of field-measured queues proved challenging because of definitional differences between simulated and field study results. Overall, the results demonstrate the feasibility of satisfactory calibration of simulation tools to enable the operational performance evaluation of DCD interchanges.},

abstract = {This paper presents an optimization-based probability adjustment approach that enables an analyst to minimize the error and bias in estimating freeway reliability performance measures by using a small sample of reliability scenarios. The freeway facilities travel time reliability methodology proposed for the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 can produce up to 24,000 scenarios to be evaluated for estimating the travel time distribution. The methodology uses a deterministic scenario generation approach to account for any possible operational condition of freeway facilities. In addition to processing time considerations, the large number of scenarios poses analytical challenges because (a) a detailed assessment and scrutiny of individual scenarios cannot be performed and (b) the customized selection of active traffic management is infeasible. The proposed method allows the analyst to adjust the selected scenario probabilities to estimate the real-world freeway performance measure better with a manual biased sample. The biased sampling probability adjustment method is applied to two real-world case study examples. These illustrate that the population travel time distribution can be approximated adequately through the probability adjusted sample. Findings from this research have implications for proposed reliability and active traffic management methodologies in the Highway Capacity Manual 2010. The number of scenarios can be greatly reduced from several thousand to less than 100 while maintaining the shape of the reliability distribution and key performance measures of the scenario population.},

Within the scope of this paper, a 3 journey of any passenger travelling from an origin (O) to a destination (D) is investigated on a station 4 basis, where an automatic fare collection system holds a wealth of individuals' travel data from their 5 smart cards being used. Thus, a sufficiently large sample of the smartcard users' journey times can be 6 obtained by calculating the time-stamped O-D records. Nonetheless, transit routes that the passengers 7 actually chose were not recorded, and hence unobservable. Based on the journey time data, a mixture 8 model is formulated for estimating posterior probabilities that a passenger was likely to have chosen 9 any route from all possible alternatives, that is, the probabilistic route choices, between a given pair of 10 O-D stations. The estimated results are fundamentally dependent upon observational data of the 11 passengers' journey times being modelled by mixture distributions. Accordingly, proportions of the 12 passenger traffic flowing on the different transit routes are calculated as well, in view of the O-D 13 travel demand. The inferences of traffic proportions are validated by comparing them to survey 14 findings, which in turn affords corroborative evidence supporting the estimated results of the 15 individuals' probabilistic route choices. This approach is illustrated with a case study on one pair of 16 O-D stations inside the central zone of the London Underground network, by taking advantage of the 17 Oyster smartcard data. Both Gaussian and lognormal mixture models are tested on the selected O-D 18 example and the outcome demonstrates a good performance of the proposed method. In addition, 19 limitations and potential practical applications of the modelling framework are also discussed.},

The aim of this paper is to provide insight into the impact of built environment on 4 tour-based travel behavior, considering car ownership, travel distance, and tour complexity as 5 intermediating factors simultaneously. By using the 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) 6 data, this paper empirically examined the effects of built environment on tour-based personal travel 7 behavior in the Maryland-Washington, D.C.

A multiple-group structural equation model (SEM) was employed in this 10 study and the model results confirmed that the effects of car ownership, travel distance, and tour 11 complexity on travel behavior are statistically significant and should better considered as mediating 12 factors when analyzing the relationship between built environment and travel behavior. It was also 13 found that the impacts of built environment on tour-based travel behavior significantly differ between 14 home-based work tour and non-work tour. These findings can help planners and policy makers 15 develop a more thorough understanding on how the built environment influence travel behavior. 16},

abstract = {One of the objectives of the U.S. Department of Transportation's connected vehicle (CV) research program is to develop innovative applications that take advantage of communications between vehicles and roadside infrastructure as well as between the vehicles themselves to improve safety, mobility, and the environmental performance of multimodal transportation systems. Many of the energy- and environment-focused CV applications involve the prescription of optimal speed profiles for vehicles that travel within the transportation network. These recommended speed profiles can then be provided to the drivers through human-machine interfaces (HMIs). However, the drivers may not be able to follow the recommended speed profiles closely. In that case, the effectiveness of the applications might be degraded. These HMIs may even be distracting and detrimental to safety. Partial vehicle automation can be used to follow a recommended speed profile and play an important role to ensure that the benefits of these CV applications are realized fully. This paper presents an evaluation of the supplementary benefits from partial vehicle automation in CV applications with the use of an ecoapproach and departure application at signalized intersections in a case study. This application provides recommended speeds for vehicles as they approach and travel through a signalized intersection so that they pass through the intersection on green or decelerate to a stop in the most ecofriendly manner. The evaluation was based on real-world HMI manual driving data and in simulated partial automation data. The results showed different levels of supplementary benefits, which depended on the ability of the drivers to follow the recommended speeds, compared with the actual target speed profiles that would have been achieved through partial vehicle automation.},

abstract = {The policy of the New York City Department of Transportation on the use of pedestrian crossing speeds is intended to provide sufficient time for pedestrians to cross the street and, thus, to support pedestrian safety at signalized intersections. This policy adheres to current guidelines provided in the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, which generally recommend the use of a fixed walking speed; however, pedestrian walking speeds at crosswalks vary depending on pedestrian density. As crosswalks become more crowded, pedestrian walking speeds become slower. The purpose of the study described in this paper, therefore, was to identify the need for and recommend a guideline for dynamic pedestrian walking speeds during pedestrian clearance intervals that fluctuated on the basis of how pedestrians behaved in crosswalks with various pedestrian densities. Such control could help provide appropriate pedestrian clearance intervals at crosswalks with distinctively high densities. This study modeled the relationships between pedestrian walking speeds and densities and between speeds and the proportions of pedestrian flows by direction at signalized intersections with heavy pedestrian volumes, as in central business district locations in New York City. On the basis of the relationships analyzed, speed and density levels were identified as measures of safety and congestion levels. Furthermore, the study showed that pedestrian crossing speeds within high-density crosswalks were affected by opposing pedestrian flows.},

That RTI access can affect the choice of departure time and stop as well as the route choice is considered. Two types of travelers with access to RTI are distinguished: travelers who want to arrive at their destinations as soon as possible and passengers who prefer to stay slightly longer at their current locations if doing so can reduce their travel time. For illustration, a network with Irregular service arrivals is used and the optimal strategy approach of Spiess and Florian is used as a benchmark for passengers without RTI access. As expected, results showed that travelers without RTI access travel longer but also that particular combinations of traveler strategy and RTI provision lead to counterintuitive effects. Results: further illustrated that the two RTI access strategies that travelers use can lead to significant differences in loads. Implications Tor demand management are discussed.},

More specifically, the underlying assignment problem is a static, multi-class and asymmetric traffic assignment problem, which may be formulated and solved as a variational inequality problem (VIP). This approach provides a new tool to understand the analytical properties of the bottleneck model with gen-eral heterogeneity, and to design efficient numerical procedures for its solution. The results of numerical experiments show that a primitive projection algorithm is able to quickly solve the equivalent VIP with a reasonable number of user groups. Thus, the proposed approach may be used to perform numerical analysis for the bottleneck models that are analytically intractable. It can also be easily extended to address simulta-neous departure time and route choice in a single O-D network with multiple parallel routes.},

Transportation spending 43 declined significantly between 2005 and the recession years. A large part of this was due to lower car-44 ownership levels and an overall increase in zero-car households. Those households that did acquire a 45 car needed to make higher levels of down payment. They also paid higher interest rates compared to 46 the pre-recession period. Minorities spent significantly less than non-minorities before the recession 47 but the difference from non-minorities was not significant during the recession. Single mothers did 48 not spend significantly less than other households overall; however, their spending level became 49 significantly less during the recession and they were much more likely to become zero-car households 50 during the recession.

abstract = {Land use policy is viewed as a way to mitigate congestion and alleviate greenhouse gas emissions. Many studies have confirmed the reduction effect for vehicle miles traveled (VMT) of compact and mixed land use development. However, debates on self-selection effects have arisen in recent years. Researchers argue that the correlation between land use pattern and VMT may be caused by self-selection of residential location based on a person's attitude toward traveling. This paper develops an urban form indicator for describing local land use patterns and then establishes a structural equation model (SEM) with VMT, vehicle ownership, and the urban form of residential location estimated simultaneously. Residential self-selection was controlled in two ways in the model: implicitly through the correlated error terms in multiple equations and explicitly through the incorporation of expected VMT in the equation of residential location choice. The model was estimated with household travel survey data collected in 2007 in the Washington, D.C., area. The results showed that land use itself could influence travel behavior after self-selection effects were removed. A comparison of the results of the full SEM results with that of a reference SEM confirmed the existence of self-selection effects. The comparison verified that the VMT reduction effect of land use would be exaggerated without consideration of self-selection, and self-selection effect accounted for a larger part of the total effect in more compact and better mixed development areas. However, the self-selection effect was small compared with the effect of land use itself in the analyzed case.},

This likely make the present a very good time for 49 researchers investing their efforts on providing tools for the assessment and planning of carsharing programs. 50 Nevertheless, efforts in this direction are still very few, in particular for some of the newest form in which 51 carsharing has been implemented, like free-floating carsharing.

The main findings are the 54 existing high potential to further extend carsharing services in Berlin and the apparent complementarity of 55 station-based and free-floating carsharing.

Today different Carsharing systems are installed and operated in many cities around the world.

This demand is investigated within the presented research by analyzing real booking data of a German Free-Floating Carsharing system in two cities. The objective of this paper is to identify the Carsharing customers' usage and general factors that have an influence on the use for Carsharing. Different temporal and spatial distributions of bookings are calculated and illustrated. A cluster analysis is applied identifying groups of time periods with similar spatial booking frequencies and showing asymmetries in the spatiotemporal distribution of vehicle supply and demand. Influences on the demand can either be short-term or long-term. The paper proofs that changes of weather conditions have a short-term influence. Users of Free-Floating Carsharing react statistically significant to weather changes. Furthermore the application of a linear regression model shows that socio-demographic data can be used for long-term demand and business district predictions.},

Previous work focused primarily on parametric mod-3 els which are based on certain assumptions, thus its reliability is still debated. This 4 paper employs a nonparametric distribution model with Gaussian kernel functions to 5 investigate freeway work zone scenarios. Without prior assumptions of the possible 6 distribution model, a Gaussian kernel model is capable of capturing the intrinsic fea-7 tures from empirical work zone headway data to describe the headway distribution. 8 The nonparametric model would be more favorable in various scenarios. In addition, 9 this paper aims on the vehicle-type specific model: car-car, car-van, car-truck, van-car, 10 van-van, van-truck, truck-car, truck-van, and truck-truck. The K-S test confirmed the 11 performance of the nonparametric model. All K-S statistics indicate that the non-12 parametric model with Gaussian kernel model outperforms parametric models such as 13 the lognormal distribution. Experiments were further conducted on the nine types of 14 headways to provide visual evidence. The Gaussian kernel model shows robust capa-15 bility in describing the probability density function and cumulative density function, 16 the relative error is rather small and can be considered to be negligible. The lognormal 17 distribution is compared against the Gaussian kernel model when fitting the empirical 18 headway data. The results show Gaussian kernel model performs better in approximat-19 ing empirical headway data in work zones. As a result, the relative error is consistently 20 smaller than the lognormal distribution which has a large initial fluctuation. The re-21 sults suggest that the nonparametric distribution model with Gaussian kernel functions 22 has a better goodness-of-fit in the vehicle-type specific work zone scenario.},

However, minimum occupancy and toll payments 3 requirements raise potential socioeconomic questions regarding disparate negative impacts 4 across demographic groups. The objective of this study is to improve the knowledge about 5 socioeconomic aspects of congestion pricing using the I-85 HOV-to-HOT conversion in Atlanta 6 as a case study. 7 To evaluate the impacts across different user groups, more than one and half million 8 license plate records were collected over a two-year period, one year before and one year after 9 the conversion.

Additionally, results of two-day travel diary survey conducted by 12 Volpe six months before and six months after the conversion are assessed. 13 This study uses all three sources of data in parallel to undertake a socioeconomic 14 evaluation of the HOV-to-HOT conversion. Whereas previous studies have been built upon only 15 one data source, with significantly smaller sample sizes, utilizing three distinctive sources of 16 socioeconomic data and an exceptionally large sample size advances the understanding of 17 potential socioeconomic impacts of managed lanes. Furthermore, this study provides valuable 18 insight for general demographic analysts, based upon the noted advantages and disadvantages of 19 these different data sources. 20 21 BACKGROUND 22 Transportation agencies face growing challenges of congestion and a limited ability to expand 23 freeway capacity due to construction costs, right-of-way constraints, and potential environmental 24 and societal impacts. Transportation planners and engineers are taking advantage of 25 opportunities to address mobility needs and provide travel options through a combination of 26 limited capacity expansion coupled with operational strategies designed to manage travel 27 demand, improve transit service, and support other forms of ridesharing. The managed lane 28 concept is gaining interest around the country as an approach that combines these elements to 29 make the most effective and efficient use of a freeway facility (1). 30 High-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes have existed since 1969, and the introduction of 31 high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes in the 1990s has added another alternative for highway 32 management (2). Researchers have suggested that in some areas, HOV lanes do not function 33 properly, in that the lanes operate below capacity or the lanes become congested like their 34 general purpose lane counterparts (3). HOT lanes promise to make better use of existing HOV 35 lanes, to provide capacity more efficiently than either conventional HOV lanes or general 36 purpose lanes by managing demand. 37 The conversion of the HOV2 lane to a HOT3 lane was implemented on16 miles of 38 Atlanta's I-85 on Oct, 1 2011. HOT lane implementation is under consideration for widespread 39 adoption throughout the Atlanta metropolitan area (4). Hence, further conversion of HOV lanes 40 to HOT lanes requires in-depth planning and policy analysis, particularly in terms of 41 socioeconomic impacts. The I-85 experience, as a case study, could potentially help in this 42 regard. 43 Before the Atlanta I-85 HOV-to-HOT conversion, HOV users required two or more 44 passengers per vehicle (HOV2). However, after the conversion to a HOT facility, only 45 registered vehicles carrying three or more occupants (HOT3) were allowed to use the lane for 46 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Wikander, Eisele, and Schrank 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 An early step in the process of performing any mobility analysis is the segmentation of the 3 roadway network. Traditional manual segmentation includes reviewing maps and geometric 4 roadway characteristics to segment roadways into logical " similar-behaving " segments. This is 5 time-consuming and does not inherently use the actual speed data in the segmentation process. 6 There is a need for an automated procedure to provide a " first-cut " of roadway segments for 7 analysis. The roadway segmentation procedure presented uses a comparison of average annual 8 15-minute speeds by day-of-week to judge whether adjacent roadway links exhibit similar traffic 9 patterns and should be grouped together for mobility analysis. The procedure uses relatively 10 simple calculations to provide a " single number " criterion indicating the relative degree of 11 similarity between pairs of adjacent or near-adjacent roadway links. 12 Researchers developed an automated data processing framework for auto-segmenting 13 freeways using INRIX speed data, and used this processing framework to evaluate the auto-14 segmentation method in comparison to known congested locations in Houston, Texas. 15 Comparison with known congested segments from the Texas Department of Transportation's 16 100 Most Congested Roadways List shows reasonably good agreement with congested locations 17 in Houston. The methods explained in this paper are particularly useful for transportation 18 agencies interested in segmenting their roadway networks to produce performance measure 19 requirements anticipated from the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-20 21). 21 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Though the disruption or failure of a single link is widely 4 studied, the area of multiple simultaneous disruptions on transportation networks is under-5 researched. Also, most of the existing studies assume probability distributions of capacity 6 disruptions to be known. The objective of this paper is to study multiple simultaneous 7 disruptions and to establish a consequent critical state. We assign different levels on links' 8 capacities and search for probability distributions over those levels that would result in a critical 9 state. The critical state is modeled as the one which effects in poor network performance, and 10 comparably equal expected path costs, that makes it hard for a user to identify the better path (i.e. 11 it induces maximum indifference on expected utilities of alternative paths). We formulate the 12 critical state link disruption problem as a minimax optimization problem, and solve it using a 13 coevolutionary algorithm. We evaluate network performance in terms of expected system travel 14 time. The formulation is exemplified by finding expected system travel time at the critical state 15 on test networks. It is also shown how the performance at critical state can be used to measure 16 network robustness.},

With that movement, evaluating the sustainability of transportation projects has become necessary for state departments of transportation (DOTs). Transportation Sustainability Rating Systems (TSRS) have been adopted for this purpose; however, different TSRSs employ different methods for determining or quantifying sustainability, and emphasize different sustainability factors. Given the number, variability, and specificity of TSRSs available, an evaluation and pairing exercise of available systems is needed to help the state DOTs select a system by determining to what extent a given system suits the state DOT's preferences This paper presents a four step framework which identifies the most important capabilities in a TSRS as preferred by a state DOT and then facilitates weighting of those capabilities via a well-established methodology, the Analytical Hierarchy Process. The paper also presents the implementation of this framework for Colorado DOT (CDOT) and Wyoming DOT (WYDOT). The framework resulted in the identification of INVEST to be the most suitable TSRS for CDOT and WYDOT. The framework developed for assessing TSRSs was proven to be a viable means for determining rank and suitability of TSRS for DOTs.},

The enhanced 3 coordination strategy is embedded in the standard Max-Plus algorithm and finds a direction of 4 traffic that each agent should emphasize in the learning process to improve coordination 5 considering one or more corridors. The main objective of the enhanced coordination is to increase 6 network throughput, while also preventing queue spillovers and gridlocks. The proposed strategy 7 reduces conflicting coordination between neighboring intersections from Max-Plus and applies 8 two types of incentives in the learning process: 1) a direct factor in the cost function, and 2) a bias 9 for the reward of all actions based on the largest difference between the coordinated and the 10 competing demands along a corridor. A step-by-step description of the algorithm implementation 11 is provided, and its effects are illustrated using a simulated network with oversaturated conditions. 12 Compared to max-plus alone and no explicit coordination, the enhanced coordination increased 13 network throughput and reduced the proportion of stopped vehicles. Additional scenarios in the 14 same network demonstrated the algorithm performance when permitted turning movements are 15 added, generating noise to the expected coordinating effects, and also when volumes are higher in 16 one direction.

Because of this importance, such tools have been identified as a key step in the Eco-Logical framework to integrate transportation and conservation planning, characterized by a SHRP 2 capacity program study as the Integrated Ecological Framework. Currently, throughout much of the United States, there are no straightforward methods for the creation of transportation-centric crediting programs. However, successful programs in California, North Carolina, Oregon, and Washington have developed approaches cooperatively with regulatory agencies, state and nongovernmental conservation programs, those actively involved in mitigation banking, and agencies or organizations that fund restoration activities. An overview of crediting systems and valuation methods and their use at various scales in transportation planning are presented in this paper. Current projects and programs are evaluated to identify the opportunities and the obstacles that transportation organizations may encounter when attempting to implement a crediting program.},

abstract = {1 Priority strategies for bus transit are implemented with the purpose of expediting transit flow by 2 reducing travel times and delay while providing a more reliable system that may attract new riders and 3 increase transit capacity. Such strategies are a critical component of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), though 4 can be also applied to regular local bus operations. The interference of general traffic when buses are 5 operating in mixed traffic results in a reduction in speed and capacity. Intersection priority treatments 6 reduce signal delay resulting in travel time savings to transit. Transit Signal Priority (TSP) strategies may 7 be applied across a number of intersections depending on the level of service (LOS) and lane 8 configuration characteristics of the signalized intersections along a corridor and can also be combined in 9 the same signal operation for each approach serving transit. 10 This paper presents the methodology for evaluating the impacts of TSP treatments on transit 11 operations at a specific intersection by comparing various treatment options. The effectiveness of the 12 transit priority treatment is measured by the travel time savings for bus operations given in minutes of 13 reduced delay. The applicability of this methodology in the planning of TSP strategies for transit service 14 is explained in two sample calculations where the results are compared to determine the feasibility of the 15 TSP treatment that would give the highest travel time savings for signalized intersections along the 16 corridor being studied.},

abstract = {1 In this paper, we provide a systematic calibration approach for a turning-proportion-based cell 2 transmission model, CTMSim, which is designed to be a fast and accurate traffic simulator for 3 real-time traffic management applications. State-of-the-art network junction models and turning 4 proportions are used in CTMSim to guarantee simulation accuracy and efficiency. The calibra-5 tion process is simple with only three groups of adjustable parameters: origin demand, turning 6 proportions, and traffic flow fundamental diagrams. A case study of the SR-91 Orange County 7 network is used to demonstrate the calibration process with a set of calibration targets on traffic 8 flow, travel time, and congestion pattern, which are consistent with the FHWA microsimulation 9 model calibration guideline. A well-prepared historical traffic flow dataset, which is the key to a 10 successful base model development, is used to generate necessary inputs such as origin demand 11 and turning proportions to CTMSim, and also for the model calibration. A time-dependent impact 12 factor is incorporated into the triangular traffic flow fundamental diagram under the consideration 13 that various factors such as high truck percentages and active lane-changing activities impact the 14 traffic performance in the real world. The calibration procedure is described as a feedback loop, 15 and observed flow counts, travel times, and congestion patterns are used as reference inputs. Cali-16 bration results show that CTMSim is accurate to replicate the actual network traffic conditions and 17 its simulation results are comparable with those from microscopic simulations.},

abstract = {1 Credit-based congestion pricing is a recently identified strategy to mitigate congestion by 2 creating artificial markets for mobility credits. This study develops a new framework to capture 3 the market behavior effects of implementing tradable credit schemes over time. Two policies are 4 considered in this context. In the first policy, a central authority applies a positive/negative 5 interest rate to unused credits based on the goals to increase/decrease travel demand and credit 6 consumption in a time period. Then, travelers can use the prorated unused credits in subsequent 7 periods. For a given credit distribution, the credit price in each period is shown to depend on the 8 prorated credit price in the future periods. In the second policy, the travelers pay a transfer fee to 9 exercise unused credits in future time periods. In addition, they have the right to keep the unused 10 credits up to the end of the time horizon of interest, and exercise them based on their travel needs 11 at any time during that horizon. At the end of the horizon, a central authority is assumed 12 purchase unused credits from any period at the predetermined reservation price. Experimental 13 analysis suggests that the uniqueness of credit price does not depend solely on the path flow 14 pattern in current period but also on the consumption of transferred credits in future periods. 15 Sensitivity analysis is performed on the various parameters to study the market behavior under 16 the aforementioned frameworks.},

This 16 argument is inspired by the belief that membership of certain initial travel behavior patterns can 17 be predictive of membership of future travel behavior patterns. Specifically, multi-modal 18 travelers may, for reasons identified in this paper, be expected to expose different transition 19 behaviors than single-mode travelers. To empirically assess this expectation, the present study 20 relies on previously gathered panel data (the German mobility panel) to inductively reveal 21 clusters of homogenous travel behavior patterns and model transitions in these patterns over 22 time. Additionally, it examines the effects of several background characteristics and important 23 life events on cluster membership and the transition probabilities. The results show that, over 24 time, multimodal users compared to single-mode users are more likely to switch from one 25 behavioral profile to another. In addition, multimodal clusters seem to function as necessary 26 intermediate steps in the transitions between (several of the) single-modal user patterns.},

abstract = {The concept of truck travel demand forecasting, internal to a region, has always been built upon modeling discrete truck trip ends, distributing truck trip ends to various origins and destinations using travel time impedances and some land use characteristics, and allocating truck trip tables into distinct time periods using factors derived from observed counts. An innovative enhancement to this approach is to apply activity-based modeling (ABM) principles to truck tour characteristics and develop a tour-based truck travel demand model. This paper focuses on two aspects – (a) processing of truck GPS data, and (b) developing a tour-based truck model. The processing of truck GPS data is done for the MAG region to construct a truck tour database necessary for estimating tour-based models. The tour-based models include stop generation and purpose models, and time period allocation and duration models to predict the occurrence of truck stops in space and time for each industry sector. This paper also discusses the calibration and validation of these discrete choice models that are linked together to output trip chains or truck tours for different industry sectors},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2014, University of South Florida. All rights reserved.Real-time transit information offers many benefits to transit riders, including reduced wait times and increased customer satisfaction. However, offering real-time transit services has been challenging for many transit agencies. While mobile applications (apps) have emerged as a preferred dissemination method for real-time information, it is typically cost-prohibitive for transit agencies to fund custom development of native mobile apps for all popular smartphone platforms. Third-party developers can offer services if an agency openly shares real-time data, but these individuals are volunteers whose priorities and deadlines may not be the same as the agency's. As a result, few cities have full app portfolios that cover all smartphone platforms. This paper presents the OneBusAway multi-region project, a collaborative effort that is enabling the rapid expansion of native mobile transit apps to new cities. OneBusAway is an open-source transit information system that has provided real-time transit services to the Puget Sound (Washington) area since 2008. The new OneBusAway multi-region feature expands the coverage of the existing Android, iPhone, Windows Phone, and Windows 8 apps for OneBusAway to new cities, including Tampa and Atlanta. The multi-region system architecture, collaborative design and development process, and lessons learned from this ground-breaking project are discussed. The fundamental shift from proprietary to open-source software in the transit industry that has made this type of project possible also is examined.},

A CUTF is defined as the unobserved maximum amount of time that an individual private car user is willing to spend driving and is derived from the concept of a travel time budget. Long-term GPS data collected from private cars in Toyota, Japan, were used. To deal with the panel data, a stochastic frontier model with random parameters was applied as the modeling methodology. The fit of the data for the estimation results demonstrated that models with random coefficients were preferable. Drivers' CUTFs on workdays were significantly affected by the departure time of the first trip, temperature, home location, gender, age, and occupation. All those explanatory variables except temperature also significantly affected CUTFs on holidays. When the intraindividual variations were ignored, only a few explanatory variables had a significant effect on CUTFs. Predictions made with the estimated parameters showed that the expected CUTFs were about double the corresponding actual times of car usage (expenditures). Therefore, CUTFs are underestimated when intraindividual variations are ignored.},

abstract = {1 A significant increase in gas price, known as a gas price spike, considerably influences travel behavior. 2 People have considered reducing their fuel consumption by making fewer trips, choosing alternative 3 commute modes, and changing household locations. Many studies suggest that travel behavioral changes, 4 due to a gas price increase, are related to socio-economic, lifestyle, and neighborhood characteristics. This 5 paper investigates perceived short and long-term responses to a hypothetical 100 percent gas price 6 increase in Halifax, Canada. It uses stated response survey information from the Household Mobility and 7 Travel Survey (HMTS) conducted in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The study takes a latent class 8 modeling approach in which the class membership component of the model is examined in relation to the 9 socio-economic and attitudinal attributes. The study examines the short-term and long-term behavioral 10 changes in effect of socio-demographic characteristics, land use and accessibility measures, neighborhood 11 characteristics, and attitudinal variables. The model results suggest that the latent class logit model 12 outperforms the conventional multinomial logit model in terms of model fit. The short-term model results 13 reveal that lower income individuals ride transit more often whereas higher income individuals are 14 insensitive to the change of gas price. An individual's reason for changing household locations is strongly 15 related to their short-term response. In the long-term, individuals with lower incomes tend to change work 16 locations rather than home locations. People living farther than one kilometer from a transit stop show the 17 highest propensity to change home locations. Persons who own more than one household vehicle are 18 more likely to purchase a more fuel-efficient vehicle. Higher income persons are more likely to make no 19 change in the long-term. The behavioral responses investigated in this study provide valuable information 20 for policy-makers to develop strategies to improve readiness of the communities more effectively. 21},

At the same time, it also seeks to establish how an integrated demand-supply 4 model could be used to produce NFDs, which have long been used to study network flow 5 characteristics. In this paper the ADAPTS dynamic activity-based model generates the 6 demand and TRANSIMS has been used for traffic simulation. In order to properly model the 7 dynamic interaction between the demand and supply models, a framework has been proposed 8 and developed that tightly integrates the ADAPTS activity-based model with the TRANSIMS 9 traffic simulation tools. Both models have been modified to support the continuous 10 communication of vehicle information between them during the course of simulation. This 11 allows the ADAPTS model to have full control over its agents during the traffic simulation 12 and to be able to update its agents' plans and schedules when necessary. The integrated model 13 is then run to generate activities and simulate associated trips so as to generate the NFDs. 14 Three hypothetical cordons of varying sizes are drawn around the central business district of 15 Chicago to plot the diagrams. Several essential observations are then discussed in detail. 16 These observations form a basis to validate the integrated framework. The results show that 17 the observed dynamics in the simulated NFDs share certain similarities with the NFD drawn 18 using loop detectors data; however, some inconsistencies are observed which are discussed in 19 detail. 20 21},

abstract = {1 This paper reviews four transit projects funded using special assessment districts (SADs) across 2 the US. It examines the SADs' revenue yield and stability and focuses on the actions taken by 3 public agencies to enhance them, resulting in three important findings. First, SAD revenues are 4 highly stable and can be expected to generate large sums of money. However, as a proportion of 5 project cost, these revenues might fund a small portion of capital-intensive transit projects such 6 as heavy rail. Second, these revenues typically do not accrue upfront because property owners 7 have the option to pay the fee over time. Therefore, public agencies must rely on other funding 8 sources (usually assessment-fee-backed bonds) to address this revenue-expenditure mismatch. 9 Finally, to ensure that assessment revenues do not decline in real dollars when paid over time, 10 property owners are charged interest, usually based on the interest paid to service the 11 assessment-backed bonds. 12 Public agencies can take the following steps to enhance SADs' revenue yield and 13 stability. First, try to capture as large a portion of property value increment as is politically 14 feasible. Second, use SADs to demonstrate local community support for transit project, thereby 15 leveraging state and federal funds. Third, minimize the number of properties exempt from paying 16 assessments. Fourth, minimize real estate market risks to SAD revenues by formulating a 17 revenue calculation methodology based on factors other than or in addition to property value, 18 such as a parcel's street frontage and size, and a property's building area. Additionally, the 19 assessment fee could be a proportion of the property's previously assessed value or a proportion 20 of a fixed property value increment.},

While both climate change and road safety can be addressed 7 through different policy packages that do not affect VKT (e.g. emissions standards, enforcement 8 of seatbelt laws), there are mitigation actions for reducing GHG emissions that target VKT 9 reductions and are therefore also effective safety countermeasures. In this paper, we use VKT 10 climate change scenarios from the International Energy Agency (IEA), and develop regional risk 11 factors based on information from the World Health Organization (WHO). We find that VKT 12 reductions suggested by IEA to move from a 4 degree scenario (4DS) to a 2 degree scenario 13 (2DS), can help avoid nearly 200,000 traffic deaths per year. While impressive, this number still 14 falls significantly short of meeting the Decade of Action on Road Safety goals. We then test 15 different policy packages to achieve the goal of the Decade of Action of halving road fatalities 16 by 2020. We find that a combined approach in which VKT reductions and risk reduction is a 17 more feasible method than either targeting risk or VKT alone. This analysis indicates the 18 magnitude of the global road safety problem and the need for coordinated, long term efforts to 19 reduce traffic related deaths and other sustainable development goals.},

abstract = {Alternative fuels to reduce public and private vehicle emissions have become a main subject of discussion today. The study of future demand and people preferences toward these new technologies are needed to evaluate whether the irruption of the alternative fueled vehicles could succeed.  In this paper hybrid choice models are used, which value lies in jointly considering discrete choices along an incorporation of latent factors to describe the decision-making process. Discrete choices were obtained from a stated preference survey in Colombian main cities. The latent variables were obtained from the rating of statements related to transportation system, environmental care, vehicle preferences and technology. The second order structural equations model is generated by the use of technology latent variable as a direct cause for environmental concern and preferences towards car use.   Results show that the inclusion of latent variables in the estimation of discrete choice models help to obtain better fitted models and could be a more appropriate representation of the consumer behaviour in new vehicle purchases when alternative fuel technology vehicles are available. The individual environmental concern and the support for transport policies have a positive influence in the alternative fueled vehicles purchase; on the other hand, the users who reveal attachment to the car use prefers the standard fueled vehicles. The use of second order relationships among latent variables helps to improve poor defined structural equations. Moreover, an interesting contribution is to assess the preferences in different cities, finding that there are important similarities in consumers´ behaviour.},

abstract = {This paper formulates and estimates an econometric model, referred to as the latent segmentation based generalized ordered logit (LSGOL) model, for examining driver injury severity. The proposed model probabilistically allocates drivers (involved in a crash) into different injury severity segments based on crash characteristics to recognize that the impacts of exogenous variables on driver injury severity level can vary across drivers based on both observed and unobserved crash characteristics. The proposed model is estimated using Victorian Crash Database from Australia for the years 2006 through 2010. The model estimation incorporates the influence of a comprehensive set of exogenous variables grouped into six broad categories: crash characteristics, driver characteristics, vehicle characteristics, roadway design attributes, environmental factors and situational factors. The results clearly highlight the need for segmentation based on crash characteristics. The crash characteristics that affect the allocation of drivers into segments include: collision object, trajectory of vehicle's motion and manner of collision. Further, the key factors resulting in severe driver injury severity are driver age 65 and above, driver ejection, not wearing seat belts and collision in a high speed zone. The factors reducing driver injury severity include the presence of pedestrian control, presence of roundabout, driving a panel van, unpaved road condition and the presence of passengers. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

Abstract 1 2 The purpose of this paper is twofold – first to summarize the changes in travel that 3 account for the decline in total roadway vehicle travel from last decade's peak levels, and 4 second, to speculate on some of the implications of post-peak vehicle miles traveled (VMT) 5 trends. Both sections of the paper are speculative – the availability of data and demographic, 6 economic, and other dynamics make it difficult to fully diagnose the changes in travel behavior 7 over the past decade or so that are resulting in lower levels of roadway travel in both total and 8 per capita terms. Second, planners are only now beginning to think about the impacts associated 9 with the consequences of not having growing roadway travel demand. 10 The paper itemizes empirical data on travel trends addressing freight versus passenger 11 travel, urban versus rural, mode choice, age, income, communication substitution, and logistics 12 as a factor impacting VMT. Discussion then turns to consequences including: transportation 13 capacity requirements, transportation infrastructure productivity, induced demand, transportation 14 land-use, transportation and economic development, challenges for traditional planning 15 processes, equity implications, and risk and uncertainty. 16 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Alternative technologies such as interactive voice response 4 (IVR) and mobile-based websites can also provide this information. Currently, the extent of 5 communication technology usage among transit riders is largely unknown. 6 Paired with an investigation of cellular phone usage among transit riders and the general 7 American population, an analysis of St. Louis Metro's Onboard Survey data was conducted to 8 examine riders' communication technology usage, as well as to determine how this usage may 9 impact the rider experience and ridership-generating potential. Additional analyses also 10 identified specific demographic groups that would benefit from supplemental technology 11 methods more conducive to their particular information accessibility. 12 Results found that communication technology usage has risen substantially in recent 13 years, and that Metro riders who use smartphones or text-messaging reported significantly higher 14 levels of satisfaction with service factors such as the ability to make transfer connections and 15 personal security at transit centers. Specific demographic groups (e.g., riders over 40 years of 16 age) were less likely to own smartphones, and it was concluded that computer-based websites 17 and IVR are the best supplementary alternatives for those groups. 18 The current study emphasizes the growing need for RTI applications in the transit 19 industry and suggests that the development of enhanced communication methodologies can 20 positively impact the rider experience. Furthermore, differences in individual technology 21 accessibility call for RTI application development that mirrors the unique characteristics of its 22 ridership.},

In this paper we explore why innovations in intermodal transport are difficult to realize and how barriers for their successful implementation could be overcome. Our focus is on European initiatives. We describe a number of initiatives, succeeded and not (yet) succeeded, and explore their particular strengths and weaknesses. Next, by linking the description of these initiatives to a framework of innovation adoption, we derive critical issues in the implementation of intermodal innovations. We conclude that besides substantive success factors, related to costs and benefits, there are other strategic and process related factors that play at least an equally important role in the realization of these innovations. These include the balance of power in the supply chain, and the alignment of perspectives and preferences of different stakeholders.},

While self-4 driving cars have the potential to improve safety and increase quality of life, many people appear 5 reluctant to adopt the technology, because they are uncomfortable with safety, liabilities, and 6 control. Public attitudes toward self-driving cars are increasingly important as the public shapes 7 the demand for the technology, policies that govern them, and future investments in 8 infrastructure. Moreover the nature of the technology means that the truly transformative benefits 9 are only realized once self-driving cars are adopted en masse. We investigate public attitudes 10 toward self-driving cars using the responses of 107 likely adopters in Berkeley, California as a 11 case study. What do these people find most and least attractive about self-driving cars, and how 12 do they envision the inclusion of the technology? Would they adopt this technology and in what 13 form? Do an individual's demographics, existing travel behavior, and relationship to cars and 14 technology affect his or her opinion about self-driving cars? We find that individuals are most 15 attracted to potential safety benefits, the convenience of not having to find parking, and 16 amenities such as multitasking while en route; conversely, individuals were most concerned with 17 liability, the cost of the technology, and losing control of the vehicle. Men are more likely to be 18 concerned with liability, and less likely to be concerned with control than women.

abstract = {An important measure of non-motorized traffic safety is the understanding of traffic rules and regulations by those who comprise non-motorized transportation modes as well as the motorists who must share the roadways with their fellow pedestrian and bicyclists. Streams of motorized and non-motorized traffic frequently meet at locations such as intersections with crosswalks, and mid-block crossings. Unfortunately, such high frequent interactions at these locations are responsible for a large proportion of crashes involving a pedestrian or bicyclist. Transportation officials attempt to mitigate these incidents through various methods of control, such as demarcation and pedestrian or bicyclist countermeasures, under the assumption that these countermeasures will be understood and yield appropriate behavior in road users. Ideally, this assumption would prove correct; however, a number of factors impact the variance in the level of understanding and compliance among the public, and many of these are outside of the control of transportation officials. This study examines if there are cultural, perceptional or educational differences in using transportation facilities associated with non-motorized traffic safety. Such differences are examined through a questionnaire survey conducted in four Michigan cities (Ann Arbor, East Lansing, Flint, and Grand Rapids). The results of this study reveal differences in understanding of non-motorized traffic safety rules that are dependent upon city-wide variations in culture, educational attainment, and perception.},

This paper used GPS data on cyclists' activities to estimate a utility or generalized-cost function that reflects cyclists' evaluation of path alternatives. For 724 cycling trips, path attributes were compiled of the observed cycling path to four feasible but not-chosen alternatives. With two logit formulations, the relative importance of statistically significant path parameters-length, auto speed, grade, and the presence (or absence) of bike lanes-was estimated. Then the predictive powers of the models were tested on 181 trips that were observed in the same data set but were not used to calibrate the model. In the best case, this model correctly predicted the actual path for 65{\%} of these trips; for an additional 13{\%} of trips, the difference in probabilities of selecting the best alternative path and the actual path was less than 5{\%}. These results were interpreted to mean that relatively robust path choice (and ultimately mode choice) models may be generated and included in enhanced multimodal travel forecasting models.},

Once North-America fourth most extensive commuter rail networks, it shrank until there were 32 only two lines remaining, before the State finally took it over and started a re-investment program and 33 rebuilt it to its current state. The paper uses almost exclusively primary sources, employing interviews as 34 well as planning documents and records, as well as newspapers for secondary sources. 35 36 Introduction 37 The railroads have played a major role in the building of the transcontinental Canadian economy as well 38 as contributing heavily to the mythology of the Canadian national identity. This is reflected in the 39 production of both the scientific and general public literature as well as in popular culture. 40 41 However the same cannot be said about the commuter rail networks of Canada. While Canada currently 42 has three commuter rail networks, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, they are, when compared to other 43 modes of public transportation, understudied in both the general and scientific literature. Despite the 44 importance of Montreal's network and it's impacts on the suburbs, the number of failed projects, 45 numerous changes in governance structures, as well as it's rebirth, the story of Montreal's commuter rail 46 network has been, in our opinion, neglected. 47 48 Montreal's Private Sector Commuter Rail System 49 Montreal's Commuter Rail system was launched in 1847. Combined with some regional train lines that 50 were scheduled in order to permit commuting as well as three interurban streetcar lines, over 20 commuter 51 rail lines were in operation in the after World War 1. Following Hanna's (1) classification, we have 52 classified Montreal's commuter rail lines in six groups. 53 54 Montreal's First Commuter Rail Line 55 56 The Lachine Canal opened in 1825, bypassing the Lachine Rapids, linking the Great Lakes and the River 57 {\&} Gulf of St-Lawrence. Traffic was such that the Montreal {\&} Lachine Rail Road was founded and 58 opened in 1847 to compete head-on with the Canal's operations. Montreal's first commuter rail line was 59 opened as well on the Island's first rail freight line. November 17 th 1847 commuter and freight services 60 were inaugurated, but would be halted for the 1847-1848 winter. Six daily trains served the line 12 km 61 with its 7 stops linking Lachine and Bonaventure Station a short stroll from the financial center of the 62 City. Travel time was approximately 20 minutes. Commuters could even purchase tokens for 3 rd class 63 travel. The line had major traffic in both directions, with suburbanites commuting downtown and working 64 class urban residents commuting to work on the expansion of the Lachine Canal and Port as well at it's 65 operations. 66 67 In 1852 the rail line was extended to a further station at its western end at 34 th avenue. Then, in 1889, it 68 was extended a few km west connecting it with its new owner, the Grand Trunk Railway's (GTR) main 69 line with commuter rail service reaching Pointe-Claire. At the same time a few stations were eliminated in 70 Lachine. Then in 1896, service was extended to Vaudreuil. Later on some trains would operate as far as 71 Les C{\^{o}}teaux. 72 73 In a rare example of capitalist competition at its best, in 1889, the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) 74 launched a commuter rail service between its downtown Windsor Station and the town of Dorion, then in 75 1893 to the town of Pointe-Fortune.

The model confirms the significance of temperature and rainfall on bicyclists, and is able to explain about 70{\%} of the data variability using only two weather parameters and 6 dummy variables for the days of the week. The hourly effect of yearly temperature trends on bicyclists is also studied and it is determined that the hourly distribution of bicyclists changes throughout the year, from a bimodal distribution with evident morning and afternoon peaks in the hotter summer months to a single-peak distribution in the colder winter months. A quantitative analysis of the distributions is done using a deconvolution method to separate each hourly distribution into two groups: a morning rider group, and an afternoon rider group. The mean riding times of each group{\^{a}}€™s distributions are then correlated with temperature. The result confirms that bicyclists shift the times of day in which they ride throughout the year to coincide with more favorable temperatures.},

An effective transportation data business plan coupled with institutional data governance can mitigate the risk by providing an approach for delivering comprehensive, quality data. Better data provide better information, which in turn results in informed decisions.

While experiments with free fares conducted in Trenton, New 4 Jersey; Denver, Colorado; and Austin, Texas in the late 1970s and late 1980s did not result in 5 permanent establishment of such policies in those jurisdictions, a surprising number of fare-free 6 transit systems (at least 39) operate in the United States today. This paper identifies and classifies 7 the communities that operate completely fare-free transit systems and summarizes the 8 experiences these communities have had with such systems. These transit systems invariably are 9 located in one of three types of communities: 1. Small urban areas 2. Resort communities and 3. 10 University-dominated communities. Fare-free transit agencies have done well in these settings 11 where a good business case can be made for offering such service, regardless of what end of the 12 political spectrum these communities might represent.

This paper proposes procedures and methods of using second-by-second 3 GPS data for urban freight performance evaluation. The evaluation targets on three important 4 measures of urban freight activities, including mobility, fuel consumption, and emissions. Based 5 on detailed GPS trajectories, the vehicle mobility can be characterized using measures such as 6 the number of deliveries made, service times at delivery stops, and the trip segment travel time 7 between delivery stops, and between delivery stops and the warehouse. The fuel consumption 8 and emissions can also be estimated using micro-scale emission models. A case study is 9 conducted using GPS data provided by a grocery company with chaining stores in the New York 10 metropolitan area. The case study justifies the feasibility of using GPS data for freight 11 performance evaluation. The results also reveal that certain innovative freight policies (such as 12 off-hour deliveries) could help improve the efficiency of urban deliveries and reduce vehicle fuel 13 consumption and emissions. 14 15},

abstract = {The municipality of Motala in Sweden introduced a local bicycle helmet 'law' on May 1, 1996. This is not a legally enacted ordinance, but instead a legislated recommendation backed up by information and education. Formally, the law applies to children (aged 6-12 years), although the intention is to increase helmet use by all cyclists. The objective of the present study was to quantitatively evaluate the impact of the Motala helmet law on observed use of helmets by children and adults. Bicycle helmet use was monitored in Motala (n = 2,458/year) and in control towns (n = 17,818/year) both before and after adoption of the helmet law (1995-1998). Chi-square tests showed that helmet wearing 1995-1998 increased in Motala among all bicyclists (from 6.1{\%} to 10.5{\%}) and adults biking on cycle paths (from 1.8{\%} to 7.6{\%}). Helmet use by school children aged 6-12 increased during the first 6 months after introduction of the law (from 65.0{\%} to 75.7{\%}) but then progressively decreased to the pre-law level. Considering children cycling on cycle paths and for recreation in housing areas, there was a tendency towards increased helmet use during the first post-law year, but this was followed by a reduction to a lower level in 1998 than in 1995. Logistic regression analysis taking into account data from the control towns indicated that the helmet law had a positive effect on children cycling to schools during the first 6 months, and a weak delayed but more long-term positive effect on adult cyclists on cycle paths. There were no positive effects on children in housing areas and on cycle paths. The Motala helmet law probably would have had greater and more lasting effects on helmet use by bicyclists, if certain problems had been avoided during the initiation phase. Moreover, although it did have a positive influence on both school children and adults, it is not legally binding, and hence no penalties can be imposed. Presumably, compulsory legislation would have a more substantial impact on helmet wearing than a non-mandatory helmet 'law' such as that introduced in Motala.},

abstract = {1 Growth in the sales of biofuels in the United States requires a change in the biofuels market from 2 predominantly blending of ethanol in gasoline as the E10 market saturates and total gasoline demand declines in the 3 coming years. E85 is a currently available biofuel, and can act as a substitute for gasoline for owners of flexible fuel 4 vehicles (FFV). This paper focuses on forecasting future E85 demand spatially across the US, accounting for both 5 the consumer's choice to purchase E85 and the retailers' choice to offer E85. The E85 demand in each county is 6 modeled as a function of projected local vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and FFV owners' choice between E85 and 7 gasoline. We modeled the consumers' choice of private cars and fleet cars separately since fleet cars are subjected to 8 special regulatory and incentivized programs. We modeled the local retailers' choice by maximizing their profit 9 assuming perfect information is available. The result of the analysis forecasts the demand curves at terminal level 10 for different oil price scenarios. We predict that in 2015 the requirement stated in renewable fuel standard (RFS) 11 would be met by E10 and E85 if the approximate terminal price is {\$}2/gallon of E85 in 2010 dollars for reference oil 12 price scenario, {\$}3.4/gallon for high oil price scenario and {\$}0.5/gallon for low oil price. However, in 2020 the RFS 13 cannot be met with E10 and E85 unless additional FFV production or purchase policies are put in place.},

A conditional logit model is estimated to identify drivers' choice when tolls and congestion management strategies, including high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes and high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, are implemented. Then a latent class model accounting for heterogeneity across groups of drivers is proposed and estimated to examine the difference in behavioral preferences across groups. The latent class model reveals significant heterogeneity in drivers' latent preference toward ride-sharing, which can potentially support ranges of transportation policy and incentive design related to congestion management strategies such as HOV/HOT lane usage.},

abstract = {1 Short-term freeway traffic speed prediction is essential to improving mobility and 2 safety. It has been a challenging, yet unresolved issue. Traffic speed prediction can be 3 applied to enhance the intelligent freeway traffic management and control for applica-4 tions as operational and regulation planning. For example, with more reliable traffic 5 speed prediction, the Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS) can provide trav-6 elers with travel time information which allows travellers to arrange their schedule 7 accordingly. Moreover, traffic managers can use the prediction information to deploy 8 various traffic management strategies so as to increase the efficiency of the whole net-9 work. In this paper, a hybrid empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and autoregressive 10 integrated moving average (ARIMA) (or equivalently EMD-ARIMA) approach is de-11 veloped to predict the short-term traffic speed on freeways. In general, there are three 12 stages in the hybrid EMD-ARIMA forecasting framework. The first step is the EMD 13 stage which decomposes the freeway traffic speed series data into a number of intrin-14 sic mode function (IMF) components and a residue. The second stage is to find the 15 appropriate ARIMA model for each IMF and residue, then make predictions based on 16 the appropriate ARIMA model. The third stage is to combine the prediction results 17 of each IMF and residue to get the predictions. The experimental results indicate that 18 the proposed hybrid EMD-ARIMA framework is capable to predict short-term freeway 19 traffic speed with high accuracy.},

TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. CHERCHI and CIRILLO 2 ABSTRACT Understanding variability in individual behaviour is crucial for the comprehension of travel patterns and for the development and evaluation of planning policies. In the last 30 years a vast body of research has approached the issue in a variety of ways, but there are no studies on the intrinsic variability in the individual preferences for mode choices in absence of external changes (or shocks) in the transportation infrastructures (i.e. introduction of new modes or major reorganization of the transportation system). This requires using continuous panel data. Few papers have studied mode choice with continuous panel data but mainly focused on the panel correlation. In this work we use a six-week travel diary survey to study the intrinsic variability in the individual preferences for mode choices, the effect of long period plans and habitual behaviour in the daily mode choices. Mixed logit models are estimated that account for the above effects as well as for systematic and random heterogeneity over individual preferences and responses. We also account for correlation over several time periods. Our results suggest that individual tastes for time and cost are fairly stable but there is a significant systematic and random heterogeneity around these mean values and in the preferences for the different alternatives. We found that there is a strong inertia effect in mode choice that increases with (or is reinforced by) the number of time the same tour is repeated. The sequence of mode choice made is influenced by the duration of the activity and the weekly structure of the activities. Finally, models improve significantly when panel correlation is accounted for. But it seems that inertia can explain to some extent for panel effect.},

abstract = {Although the theoretical sources of bias in travel surveys have been documented, data that describe an entire population of travelers rarely permit the reliable detection and measurement of bias. The existence of large databases of smart card transactions in public transit systems presents an opportunity to do so. In this paper, a typical average weekday of travel demand data from the Montreal, Canada, household travel survey is confronted with a single, specific day of smart card transactions. The object of comparison is the Montreal subway system, which is involved in 10{\%} of all daily trips within the metropolitan area. The results of the initial analysis indicate that although the survey accurately reproduces daily subway ridership, it overestimates subway boardings by 24{\%} during peak periods. This overestimation can be corrected by adjusting the weights of home-based trips to match entry volumes at subway stations during the morning peak period. The results of the reweighting procedure suggested that francophone households that use transit had a greater propensity to respond to the survey compared with other households. Furthermore, even after reweighting, the travel survey underestimated off-peak demand by roughly 21{\%}. The underestimation was likely attributable to underreporting of non-home-based trips by respondent households and nonresponse of specific population groups.},

abstract = {A new algorithm that generated a set of paths between a pair of origin destination nodes in a transportation network for the purpose of generating a measure of accessibility on the level of route choice was designed, developed, and tested. The proposed algorithm incorporated the well-known issue of path overlap in the process of generating the path choice set. This algorithm fit naturally into the class of iterative penalty-based Kth-shortest-path algorithms; in this class the link penalty terms are designed to reflect the amount of overlap between the paths already generated. With the proposed algorithm, paths were generated in order of decreasing utility and corrected by a path size correction factor; it was thus highly efficient in the sense that a comparatively small number of paths could result in a broad spectrum of desirable choices. The algorithm was developed in response to the Valencia paradox, which arose from using logsums from the existing algorithm for choice set generation as a route-level accessibility measure for the bicycle network in San Francisco, California. The Valencia paradox occurs when an accessibility measure decreases following an improvement to actual network accessibility. A detailed case study demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in minimizing this kind of paradoxical result and generating a route-level accessibility measure suitable for making fine-grained planning decisions.},

The Authority first 11 explored proprietary software products, but found these solutions to be too expensive, cumbersome, or 12 inflexible. Instead, Authority staff embarked on developing CountDracula, an open source counts 13 management tool. The aim of CountDracula is to make uploading, downloading and querying counts 14 easy for Authority staff as well as other interested parties outside the organization. The CountDracula 15 code base has been designed to be reusable by other agencies with similar needs, and it is built on 16 GeoDjango, a geographic web framework. 17},

abstract = {The implementation of the I-85 express lanes in Atlanta, Georgia, was the first conversion of a high-occupancy vehicle lane to a high-occupancy toll lane that simultaneously increased the occupancy requirement (from two or more persons to three or more persons) and implemented tolls without the creation of additional lanes. This paper presents the findings of an analysis of tolling data collected during the first year of operation as part of the National Evaluation of Urban Partnership Agreement and Congestion Reduction Demonstration programs spon-sored by the U.S. Department of Transportation. This analysis found the median willingness to pay for express lane travel time savings to be {\$}19.45 per hour across all time periods and {\$}33.17 per hour for south-bound a.m. peak travel. There was little difference in the willingness to pay between frequent and infrequent travelers of the express lanes. This analysis was based on actual tolls paid by travelers and therefore represents the minimum these travelers were willing to pay. In 2007 and 2008, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) awarded {\$}1.3 billion to six regions as part of the Urban Partner-ship Agreement (UPA) and Congestion Reduction Demonstration (CRD) programs. The main goal of the programs was to incorporate four key strategies (referred to as the 4Ts) to relieve urban conges-tion. These key strategies were tolling, transit, telecommuting, and technology. Four of the six urban areas (Miami, Florida; Atlanta, Georgia; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Los Angeles, California) con-verted or expanded existing high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes into high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes. Tolls on all four HOT lanes used congestion pricing to dynamically adjust rates, permitting either an increase or decrease in toll rate to better manage demand. Ride-sharing, telecommuting, and transit programs were primary compo-nents of all UPA–CRD sites that provided users with a nontolled alternative. The Atlanta region was one of the sites selected by the U.S. DOT under the CRD program, with a total of {\$}110 million being awarded to the Georgia DOT, State Road and Tollway Authority (SRTA), and Georgia Regional Transportation Authority. The main elements of the Atlanta CRD program were an HOV-to-HOT lane conversion and expanded express bus service on the I-85 corri-dor in DeKalb and Gwinnett Counties. The total expenditure for the program was {\$}182 million, including local contributions, with roughly two-thirds of the cost going to support transit-related improvements. This research examines the use of the new tolled express lanes (HOT lanes) on I-85 in Atlanta with data collected as part of the UPA–CRD National Evaluation sponsored by the U.S. DOT. The use of Atlanta's I-85 express lanes was examined during a 6-month period to better understand travelers' value of time (VOT) and their willingness to pay (WTP) for travel time savings.

Using global positioning system (GPS) functionality on Android and iOS smartphones to log route data, travel time, distance, and route choice are obtained for each trip. An anonymous questionnaire with socio-demographic profiles and other attributes is also obtained for each participant. The system builds on the foundation set out by such peer-reviewed projects as CycleTracks and Cycle Atlanta. However, several features were added to improve performance and provide city-specific information. This includes i) a model to break single trips into a series of segments to manage stopping and GPS connection loss, ii) a new method to compute average speed with a simple Kalman-filter algorithm, iii) addition of a bicycle network showing bicycle facilities, and iv) new models, including a calorie counter and an emissions tool to compute greenhouse gas offset adjusting for congestion (speed) in the network and considering local parameters. Despite the brevity of the application (Mon R{\~{A}}{\textcopyright}soV{\~{A}}{\textcopyright}lo), the number of logged trips reached more than 2300 with more than 500 cyclists registering in the first three weeks.

abstract = {1 Microscopic roadway traffic simulators, which attempt to mimic real-world driver 2 behaviors, are based on car-following models. The accuracy and reliability of microscopic traffic 3 simulation models are greatly dependent on the calibration of car-following models, which 4 requires a large amount of real world vehicle trajectory data. In the last few decades, many car-5 following models have been developed; however, studies are still needed to improve their 6 accuracy and reliability. In this research, the authors developed a process to apply a stochastic 7 calibration method with appropriate regularization to estimate the distribution of parameters for 8 car-following models. The calibration method is founded on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo 9 (MCMC) simulation that uses the Bayesian estimation theory. This research includes a case 10 study, which is based on the Linear (Helly) model with a different number of vehicle trajectories 11 in a highway network. The stochastic approach facilitated the calibration of car-following 12 models more realistically than the deterministic method, as the deterministic algorithm can easily 13 get stuck at a local minimum. The Bayesian approach provided better results in terms of the cost 14 function than the deterministic optimization algorithm. With the Bayesian approach, the average 15 mean square error per vehicle is decreased with increased number of vehicles. Analysis also 16 revealed that the Bayesian approach predicted drivers' acceleration and deceleration profile more 17 closely compared to the deterministic approach considered in this study. The positive validation 18 outcomes suggest potential efficacy of the calibration approach presented in this paper.},

While the zone system has substantial influence on model results, the resolution and design of zones is rarely analysed systematically, and even less commonly adjusted to a specific modelling need. This paper presents a new methodology to automatically create a new zone system based on the quadtree algorithm specific to transport modelling. Gradual raster cells are generated, where smaller raster cells tend to be used in urban areas and larger raster cells dominate in low-density, rural areas. As changing the zonal resolution affects the number of intra- and interzonal trips, an algorithm has been developed that adjusts intrazonal trips in line with the network resolution. Trip tables of a travel demand model for the state of Geor- gia, USA were disaggregated using this new zone system of gradual raster cells. The traffic assignment results validate significantly better than when using the original zone system.},

Hundreds of intercity buses depart from New 44 York City streets daily. While these buses provide a useful, low-cost transportation option for New 45 Yorkers, the fact that they were legally able to stop in any No Standing zone led to disruption to the local 46 traffic network through increased sidewalk and street congestion. 47 The New York State Legislature passed a law in August 2012 allowing the New York City Department of 48 Transportation (NYCDOT) to implement a permit system for intercity bus operators. NYCDOT has 49 developed a rule that requires intercity bus operators to apply online for a permit from NYCDOT before 50 they can make on-street stops in the city. Bus operators must submit detailed operating information to 51 NYCDOT, in addition to a permit fee based on the weekly number of arrivals and departures at the 52 proposed stop. The permit approval process includes NYCDOT evaluation based on public health and 53 safety criteria, consultation with local Community Boards and the MTA and Port Authority of New York 54 and New Jersey, where appropriate. Following an application period, police will be able to enforce 55 against intercity buses not carrying permits or not properly utilizing their assigned stop, thereby allowing 56 the city to manage this industry within the constraints of Federal and State laws.},

In this paper, three areas for improvement are identified, some of which will 4 require further research. 5 Recently released clarifications and corrections have provided additional guidance on selecting the 6 appropriate analysis procedure for a given freeway segment. While the manual discusses the overlap of a merge 7 segment followed by a diverge segment, the overlap of influence areas for other combinations are not covered. An 8 approach for handling adjacent segments separated by less than 1,500 feet is suggested based on the configuration 9 and analysis results. 10 Capacity checkpoints are used in the merge and diverge segment procedures to determine if the ramp 11 roadway, upstream freeway, or downstream freeway volumes exceed certain capacity thresholds. These checkpoints 12 should be added to the weaving procedure since the same capacity constraints may occur. In fact, the capacity 13 checkpoints use general threshold values, so a better approach would be to substitute the basic segment procedure 14 for the capacity checkpoints. 15 Despite the 2010 update, the weaving segment procedure remains insensitive to the split in weaving 16 volume between the freeway-to-off-ramp and on-ramp-to-freeway volumes. A suggested approach would be to use 17 the merge or diverge segment procedure when the volumes are particularly imbalanced. Additionally, more 18 guidance is needed for complex weaving areas that may not be adequately capture the capacity effects of lane 19 changing if split into separate basic, merge, and diverge segments. 20 21 22 23},

In addition, this paper evaluates the effectiveness of Volpe's strategic planning efforts 7 through the lens of strategic planning and innovation literature. Employing both quantitative and 8 qualitative methods, the paper examines two questions: First, has the process strengthened Volpe's ability 9 to carry out its purpose, " advancing transportation innovation for the public good " ? Second, does the 10 employee engagement and crowdsourcing approach used by Volpe offer an effective and successful 11 alternative to the traditional model of conducting strategic planning at the top organizational levels? 12 Strategic planning and innovation literature provided quantitative metrics to measure characteristics 13 associated with innovative organizations. Findings indicate that six completed strategic initiatives were 14 perceived by staff as contributing positively to Volpe's purpose of advancing innovation. Differences 15 between managers' and non-managers' perceptions were found. Findings also indicate that crowdsourcing 16 was an effective tool, with high participation rates and positive comments in the qualitative analysis.

Newer standards, such as the 23 Service Interface for Real-time Information (SIRI) v2.0, are including mobile-friendly features 24 that reduce the processing overhead on mobile devices. Coupled with the advances in mobile 25 device processing capabilities, many believe that performance is no longer an issue of concern in 26 modern mobile phones.

Prioritized transport models considered cost and 12 time criteria by following the steps of scenario creation, normalization, weighting and grouping. 13 The results obtained show that using intermodal transportation is viable for manufactured 14 products, that the combination of road/rail/marine transportation is the most attractive alternative 15 and that infrastructure must be improved in order that better options can be utilized.},

The baseline survey, conducted prior to the deployment of ICM, collected data on travelers' typical travel in the corridor, their satisfaction with their peak hour trips, their awareness and use of real-time traffic information, and their satisfaction with the information. In addition, recruited respondents were asked to complete brief " pulse surveys " administered immediately following incidents in the corridor to measure the use of information and its impact on travel during incident conditions. The surveys provide insights on travelers' use of real-time traffic and travel information and its impact on their travel decisions in two major metropolitan corridors. Through a comparison of the two sites, the findings illuminate how the use of traveler information is conditioned, at least in part, by regional and situational context. In Dallas, respondents are faced with greater traffic congestion and delay, and we find that they are more likely to consult information for their peak hour trips in the corridor, and their use of radio and electronic message signs, two of the most common sources of information, are significantly higher compared to the San Diego sample. In addition, the availability of alternate routes may affect how travelers use real-time traffic information. In Dallas, where respondents report greater use of alternate routes, both under typical circumstances as well as in the face of severe congestion, we find that significantly more respondents use real-time information to make routing decisions. INTRODUCTION Advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) have the potential to improve travelers' experience by providing them with real-time information about their travel routes and options, thus empowering them to make better informed travel decisions. Over the course of the last twenty years, there have been a number of studies that have provided insights on who ATIS customers are, how they use ATIS, and the impact of the information on their travel decisions. The Metropolitan Model Deployment Initiative (MMDI), for example, initiated by the Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS JPO) in 1997, assessed online traffic information services in Seattle, Phoenix and San Antonio (1,2,3). Differences in the use and impact of the information across the three sites lead the researchers to conclude that the key factors that mediate a user's experience with ATIS are: • The regional or situational context • The quality of the ATIS service • The characteristics of the trip • The characteristics of the traveler},

abstract = {Rising greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have put public transit at the forefront of the push for 3 more sustainable transportation. To improve transit accessibility and attract riders, agencies 4 often build Park-n-Ride (PnR) facilities on the periphery of cities. By providing convenient 5 parking facilities, agencies attempt to encourage drivers to shift modes in their single occupancy 6 vehicle (SOV) and complete their journey by transit. While PnRs are intended to increase transit 7 ridership, such facilities may carry paradoxical environmental consequences. In other words, 8 does such a multi-modal trip actually offset emissions from a theoretical SOV drive-only trip? 9 This study examines SOV PnR users in the Denver metro area and evaluates the 10 magnitude of GHG emissions saved from transit ridership. By comparing the multi-modal trip 11 against a theoretical SOV drive-only trip, the effects from GHG emissions are weighed. 12 Additionally, we assessed the environmental opportunity cost of PnR stations by repeating the 13 analysis with the assumption that all PnR transit users originating from within 2-miles of the 14 station would shift to walking/biking instead of drive access. Results suggest that PnRs located 15 at inner-corridor stations are far less effective at reducing GHG emissions than end of line 16 stations. 17 If the goal is environmental sustainability, the strategy of locating a PnR at almost every 18 station should be reevaluated in factor of one focused on how and where PnRs can be most 19 effective. Inner-corridor stations, particularly those closest to the downtown area, seem to 20 induce unnecessary driving trips and provide an incentive for longer SOV drives.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; There is growing investment in infrastructure to support non-motorized travel modes in the United States, in particular for bicycling. However, there remains a dearth of knowledge on the relationships between built environments and bicycling for non-work transportation. This issue is exacerbated by researchers and practitioners continuing to combine walking and bicycling into the {\^{a}}€{\oe}non-motorized{\^{a}}€ category, despite the two having many differences. This paper addresses these shortcomings through a segmented analysis of mode choice and mode share for walking, bicycling, and automobile travel. The data used are from a 2011 establishment intercept survey in the Portland, Oregon region and are destination-based. Results show pronounced differences in the empirical relationships between walking and bicycling and the built environment, when controlling for aspects of the individual, site, and trip. Models for mode choice and mode share indicate that the built environment attributes that influence automobile and walk travel are similar; yet, their influence is in the opposite direction. Empirical relationships with the built environment are altogether different for bicycling trips. Socio-demographic variable results are consistent with much of the non-work mode choice literature, but trip distance is not. Trip distance has the expected relationship with walking, but does not have a significant relationship with bicycling. The findings on the built environment relationships with travel modes support a move away from combining walking and bicycling together as non-motorized transportation for analysis and planning. They also lend insight into additional considerations for future work in non-work transportation research and policy.},

Accurate detection and tracking of moving vehicles is of interest 4 to many researchers, and the keypoint for these tasks is image registration. Image registration geometrically 5 aligns different images taken from the same scene at different times or by different sensors. Two main tasks are 6 performed and described in this paper: georeferencing and local registration with car detection. 7 Georeferencing focuses on global registration of the helicopter frame (target image) to a satellite image 8 (reference image) to estimate latitude and longitude of each pixel according to a base image. Due to complexities 9 of this work, the georeferencing was broken into two steps. The first step finds a small area from the satellite 10 image covering the helicopter image. The target image is registered to this extracted sub-image at the second 11 step. 12 The next task is local registration and car detection. In this case the target and reference images are 13 both from helicopter imagery which makes it simpler than georeferencing. Then, these registered images are 14 subtracted to form the difference image which can be used for car detection. However, the presence of noise 15 encouraged us to do registration in a smaller scale. The images were partitioned to smaller sub-images and a 16 transformation model was designed for each sub-image. Finally these small registered areas were matched to 17 build the target image registered to the reference image. The resultant difference image has lower noise.},

The Multiple 3 Discrete Continuous Extreme Value (MDCEV) model is a modeling approach that has been 4 applied frequently to characterize this choice behavior. One of the key drawbacks of the 5 MDCEV modeling methodology is that it does not provide an estimate of the count of vehicles 6 within each vehicle type alternative represented in the MDCEV model. Moreover, the classic 7 limitations of the multinomial logit model such as violations of the IIA property in the presence 8 of correlated alternatives and the inability to account for random taste variations apply to the 9 MDCEV model as well. A new methodological approach, developed to overcome these 10 limitations, is applied in this paper to model vehicle fleet composition and count within each 11 body type. The modeling methodology involves tying together a multiple discrete-continuous 12 probit (MDCP) model and a multivariate count model capable of estimating vehicle counts 13 within vehicle type categories considered by the MDCP model. The joint MDCP-multivariate 14 count model system is estimated using a Greater Phoenix, Arizona travel survey data set.

abstract = {This paper proposes a conceptual framework to model the travel mode searching and switching dynamics. The proposed approach is structurally different from existing mode choice models in the way that a non-homogeneous hidden Markov model (HMM) has been constructed and estimated to model the dynamic mode srching process. In the proposed model, each hidden state represents the latent modal preference of each traveler. The empirical application suggests that the states can be interpreted as car loving and carpool/transit loving, respectively. At each time period, transitions between the states are functions of time-varying covariates such as travel time and travel cost of the habitual modes. The level-of-service (LOS) changes are believed to have an enduring impact by shifting travelers to a different state. While longitudinal data is not readily available, the paper develops an easy-to-implement memory-recall survey to collect required process data for the empirical estimation. Bayesian estimation and Markov chain Monte Carlo method have been applied to implement full Bayesian inference. As demonstrated in the paper, the estimated HMM is reasonably sensitive to mode-specific LOS changes and can capture individual and system dynamics. Once applied with travel demand and/or traffic simulation models, the proposed model can describe time-dependent multimodal behavior responses to various planning/policy stimuli.},

In this research, the mobility of the road transport network is defined as the 4 ability of the road transport network to connect all the origin-destination pairs within the network with 5 an acceptable level of service. Two mobility attributes are therefore introduced to assess the physical 6 connectivity and the road transport network level of service. Furthermore, a simple technique based 7 on a fuzzy logic approach is used to combine mobility attributes into a single mobility indicator in 8 order to measure the impact of disruptive events on road transport network functionality. 9 The application of the proposed methodology on a hypothetical Delft city network shows the ability 10 of the technique to estimate variation in the level of mobility under different scenarios. The method 11 allows the study of demand and supply side variations on overall network mobility, providing a new 12 tool for decision makers in understanding the dynamic nature of mobility under various events. The 13 method can also be used as an evaluation tool to gauge the highway network mobility level, and to 14 highlight weaknesses in the network. 15},

The objective of this paper is to provide a synthesis of cross-border travel decision analyses, explore factors influencing that travel, and provide insights to mitigate the economic impact of travel reductions on border communities. While the paper aims to provide a broader view of cross-border travel, special emphasis is also given to pedestrians as a case study.A better understanding of cross-border travel is critical for responding to not only the mobility needs of travelers crossing the border on a regular basis but also the needs of businesses that suffer losses in productivity and sales. The insights obtained from this study can help retailers develop business strategies and contribute to the local agencies' analysis toolbox for better managing cross-border travel, developing improved policies that ensure regional economic and environmental sustainability, and marketing cross-border travel to particular population groups, such as pedestrians. The paper provides valuable insights in the context of not only El Paso but also other U.S. border areas as well.},

Although the data for road fatalities show a distinctive downward trend, a secondary signal that is more cyclical in nature is also evident. These cyclical variations closely track macroeconomic conditions (usually represented by the unemployment rate) and gasoline prices. While the relationship between transportation safety and unemployment and gasoline prices has been investigated, studies have looked at these variables in isolation from other important factors that affect traffic safety. Accordingly, the authors have developed a comprehensive conceptual model that considers a wide array of factors influencing traffic safety and uses this framework to inform an empirical model, for the study of variation across both time and location, a panel data model was employed, with observations for 16 industrialized countries between 1990 and 2010. In the panel model, the dependent variable was fatality per population, and gas price, unemployment, health index, mobility, and vehicle ownership were the independent variables. The results revealed a significant inverse relationship between gas prices and the road fatality rate after controlling for vehicle miles traveled. The elasticity analysis indicated that a 10{\%} decrease in gasoline prices resulted in a 2.19{\%} increase in road fatalities. Likewise, a 10{\%} decrease in unemployment rate resulted in a 0.65{\%} increase in road fatalities. Also, the results implied that the health index had the highest impact on road fatality rates. Overall, these results provide a better understanding of (lie underlying causes of periodic variations in road fatalities.},

For example, macroscopic 4 continuum traffic flow models could be used to simulate the propagation of traffic on larger 5 freeway corridors and networks efficiently and parsimoniously, whereas microscopic traffic flow 6 models could be employed to simulate those parts of the network (e.g. intersections, toll plazas), 7 where more detail (e.g. modeling of lateral behavior) is required. 8 A key requirement of such a multi-scale framework relates to the interface between 9 models of different scales. This interface should ensure (a) consistency in terms of conservation 10 of vehicles and (b) consistency in terms of vehicle/traveler properties that need to be transported 11 over this interface such as vehicle-type, vehicle occupancy, destination, etc. In this paper we 12 present an approach in which both types of consistency problems can be solved simultaneously 13 and illustrate this approach with an integrated example.

ABSTRACT Managing urban traffic systems constitutes a challenging task, partly due to the fact that queue spillbacks arise easily in moderately congested networks, which incur loss of intersection capac-ities and lead to system-wide congestion. Therefore, one possible way of ensuring mobility is through proactively distributing queues spatially so as to contain their impact locally. In this pa-5 per, we propose a traffic signal control strategy based on this idea. The proposed control is traffic adaptive and operates in a decentralized fashion. It is formulated as a coupled system of linear programs, each optimizing a local queuing pattern according to real-time queue information and history of boundary flows. By construction, the proposed control is scalable and robust to system uncertainties. We demonstrate its properties, e.g. avoiding queue spillback and stabilizing traffic, 10},

This paper 2 develops an online stochastic shortest path (SSP) model to represent the parking search process 3 in which, drivers must choose whether to park at an available space or continue searching for a 4 space closer to the destination. Existing online shortest path algorithms have been formulated 5 for the " full reset " or " no reset " assumptions on revisiting links. As described in this paper, 6 neither is fully suitable for the parking search process. Accordingly, this paper proposes an 7 " asymptotic reset " model which generalizes both the " full reset " and " no reset " cases and uses 8 the concept of " reset rate " to characterize the temporal dependence of parking probabilities on 9 earlier observations. In this model, drivers try to minimize their expected travel cost, which 10 includes driving cost and the cost of walking from a parking spot to the actual destination 11 conditioned on the parking availability on most recently traversed links. The problem is 12 formulated as a Markov decision process and is demonstrated using a network representing the 13 neighborhood of the University of Wyoming campus. The case study successfully shows the 14 " extra time " used by drivers to cruise for an acceptable parking space and also illustrates the 15 impact of on the computational effort required to compute an optimal policy.},

More than seventy lakh commuters travel by suburban railway system, which is considered as the life line of Mumbai. The suburban trains are heavily crowded with an average density of twelve passengers per sq.m.(Internationally accepted norm being 6-8 passengers per sq.m.).

abstract = {36 37 Traffic congestion continues to be a serious problem in many cities throughout the United States. 38 One of the biggest causes of long delays at intersections is the heavy demand of through moving 39 and left turning traffic. In order to alleviate the congestion at busy intersections with a high 40 demand of left turning and through moving vehicles, a more efficient intersection design is 41 needed. The Continuous Flow Intersection (CFI) is an at-grade intersection design that can 42 support high-traffic flow where there is a large volume of left turn and through traffic. The CFI is 43 expected to result in better traffic performance compared to a conventional intersection if 44 coordinated and timed correctly. However, previous studies have not considered in depth the 45 optimal signal timings, which are needed in order to achieve fluid progression through the whole 46 4-legged CFI. This study aims to address this issue by offering a comprehensive analysis of the 47 geometric relationships, signal timing relationships, and fluid progression requirements for a 4-48 legged CFI through developing a signal timing optimization model. More importantly, due to the 49 different geometric designs between the FHWA and Mexico 4-legged CFIs, this research 50 conducts an analysis to compare these two designs and to see the benefits and disadvantages of 51 these two designs. Microscopic traffic simulation is used in this study to evaluate the two CFI 52 geometric designs with the signal-timing plans suggested by the proposed model. From the 53 analysis it was found that the 4-legged CFI per FHWA design requires longer cycle lengths to 54 achieve the fluid progression condition while the 4-legged CFI per the Mexico standards can 55 achieve fluid progression with smaller cycle length values. The required longer cycle length 56 results in the longer total delay and more stops for the FHWA 4-legged CFI. But the Mexico 4-57 legged CFI design creates additional traffic conflicts between right-turning traffic and left-58 turning traffic coming from the opposite approach. This could bring significant congestion when 59 right-turning traffic is large. In addition, this study compares the signal timing determined by 60 Synchro with the one from the proposed model. This simulation results indicate that the 61 proposed models are moderately better than Synchro.},

The result of analysis shows that accessibility to transport infrastructure has no influence on the individual's workplace choice, and more job opportunities in the dwelling place, lower income level lead to more residents choosing to work in the dwelling place. It is also shown that the co-location hypothesis is not supported in Beijing: low-income workers in the periphery cannot reduce travel time and cost by changing their workplace or residence because of the deficiency of job opportunities in the peripheral area and because the price of public transport is low. Finally it is concluded the jobs-housing balance along the rail transit corridor will increase job accessibility and reduce car dependence.},

abstract = {1 2 This paper presents a methodology for critical gap analysis at intersections with unprotected opposing 3 left-turn movements. Currently, the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) methodology uses base critical 4 gap and follow-up time which are adjusted to reflect specific conditions of each intersection. The 5 methodology assumes an unobstructed line-of-sight for drivers executing left-turn maneuvers. However, 6 the line-of-sight is not always unimpeded. Previous studies have shown that leading non-compact (larger 7 and taller) vehicles and vehicles in the opposing left-turn lane may impede the line-of-sight. Specifically, 8 the studies have demonstrated that the impedance may result in a capacity reduction. In order to quantify 9 the capacity reduction, we present a methodology to modify the critical gap and follow-up time model 10 when the line-of-sight of unprotected left turn maneuver is obstructed. We introduce new adjustment 11 factors to account for vehicles in the opposing left-turn lane obstructing the line-of-sight during the left-12 turn maneuver. Using field data from Baltimore and Annapolis, Maryland it is shown that the obstruction 13 increases the left-turn critical gap and the left-turn follow-up time, and hence decreases the potential 14 capacity for left-turns at intersections with unprotected left-turn movements. This capacity reduction may 15 be a significant contributor to systemwide delay during rush hour, and may influence dilemma zone and 16 red light running behavior at intersections equipped with a red light camera.},

Consequently, these trips are often scheduled within specific time windows of the day after other constrained travel (such as mandatory and maintenance related) has been scheduled for all the members in the travel party. This study presents a two-step approach to the simultaneous modeling of departure-and arrival-times for such joint tours. The first model predicts a time-window for pursuing the joint discretionary tour from among all possible windows. The second model locates the tour within this chosen time window. The data used in this analysis comprised 2,609 joint tours undertaken by couple-adult households obtained from 2009 US NHTS. A wide set of explanatory variables (i.e., time window attributes, socio-economic characteristics, and tour attributes) were considered. Predictive assessments indicate the ability of the model system to capture the departure and arrival times effectively. Implicitly, the total tour durations were also determined effectively. Overall, the two-step model system demonstrated in this study is a simple and parsimonious approach to predicting the time of day choices for joint tours.

Although the literature on car-ownership modeling is extensive, practically all existing models employ aspatial modeling techniques. Consequently, issues of spatial dependency and spatial non-stationarity have not been adequately addressed in the context of car ownership modeling. The aim of this paper is to contribute to improving our understanding of car ownership patterns at a disaggregate (household) level by using a modeling structure that recognizes the count nature of the data and that accommodates spatial heterogeneity in the effect of determinant variables. Specifically, a Quasi Geographically-Weighted Poisson Model is estimated that captures spatial dependency and non stationary and the results are compared to a Quasi (Global) Poisson Regression Model (quasi-PM). Data from the National Household Travel Surveys from the three county region in South East Florida are used for the model estimations. The results demonstrate the need for spatial models and establish the better fit of the spatial models compared to aspatial models. Further, the Gaussian distance-decay function is also found to fit the current modeling context better. Overall, the results verify significant impact of urban design factors such as density and transit accessibility on car ownership after controlling socio-economic and attitudinal/preference factors. The effects of these factors on car ownership are also found to vary spatially.},

abstract = {Mishra et al. 2 ABSTRACT 1 Agencies at federal, state and local level are aiming to augment the public transportation system (PTS) as 2 an alternative to alleviate congestion and to cater the needs of captive riders. One of the ways to 3 determine the efficiency of the PTS is connectivity. In a multimodal transportation system, transit is a 4 component and unlike highway connectivity, transit connectivity is relatively complex to determine as 5 one has to consider, fare, schedule, capacity, frequency and other features of the system at large. Thus, 6 assessing transit connectivity requires a systematic approach to consider all parameters involved in the 7 real world. The purpose of this paper is two-fold: (1) to propose a methodology for evaluating transit 8 connectivity at various levels such as nodes, lines, and transfer centers in multimodal transportation 9 system; and (2) to provide a platform for extending the methodology for use in large scale applications, 10 including a medium to visualize results to assist public transit decision making. A graph theory approach 11 is developed to incorporate transit specific variables and detailed formulation is discussed in the paper. 12 Two-example problems are discussed to demonstrate the methodology. Following, the proposed 13 framework is applied to the comprehensive transit network in the Washington-Baltimore region. Then a 14 novel web based interface designed with HTML5 is demonstrated to visualize the transit connectivity in 15 various platforms such as mobile phones, tablets and personal computers. The proposed methodology can 16 be a useful tool for both users and decision makers in assessing transit connectivity in a multimodal 17 transit network in a number of ways such as the identification of under-served transit areas, prioritizing 18 and allocating funds to locations for improving transit service.},

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; An interdependent multimodal transportation system, commonly used for commuting in urban areas, such as Baltimore City and Washington DC, may be comprised of various transportation modes with flexible transfer options, such as automobiles, buses, subways, and other types of rail transit. A sudden event, such as a disaster due to a terrorist attack, which may require evacuation of an isolated area within the highway network adds to the challenge of examining the efficiency and reliability of such an interdependent system. In disasters there are complexities associated with the dynamic nature of the commuting pattern, formation of choke points, and the ensuing chaos, that may affect people's route choice behavior in the face of urgent evacuation. For road traffic many transportation engineers utilize route guidance system as a tool for managing traffic away from the disaster area. With uncertainty in the commuting pattern during a disaster, system efficiency is crucial to minimizing evacuation time. Within a multimodal framework, this paper offers optimal shortest paths to improve pedestrian and transit modes of the transportation system efficiency in different disaster situations specific to urban commute.},

Transit accessibility 3 shows how easy it is for an individual to travel to a desired destination using public transit. 4 However, in order for transit to be considered as an option in mode choice at all, there has to be a 5 feasible transit route leading from given origin to desirable destination within the available time 6 frame. This paper uses spatial and temporal constraints, and a set of transit features that impact 7 access to transit, to develop a conceptual framework for transit accessibility measurements in the 8 potential Transit Oriented Development (TOD) location in West Valley City, Utah. As this 9 network develops more transit friendly features, both temporal and spatial accessibility indicators 10 will provide useful information on the opportunities the users can reach using transit. The 11 proposed methodology builds upon the traffic and transit data from the case study network, and 12 uses an open source tool to perform transit accessibility measurements by calculating the number 13 of accessible transit stops from each origin. The methodology considers network features, 14 acceptable walking time, available time budget, transit schedule variability and spatial 15 constraints as impact factors in accessibility measurements. The goal of the paper is to establish a 16 feasible set of transit accessibility indicators that would be used for both the case study street 17 network and transit service modifications into a transit friendly and eventually a TOD 18 environment. 19 20},

Geocoded origins and destinations were obtained through a confidentiality agreement with the California Department of Transportation, and trip network distances and times were calculated using the MapQuest algorithm. All trips that were made on foot, by bicycle, or by car and that had origins and destinations that were geocoded to the exact address or intersection are included in this analysis (more than 100,000 trips). Trip times were compared only for car trips, while distances were compared for all three modes. The results indicate that self-reported distances and times are, on average, longer than calculated distances and times. Self-reported car and bicycle trip distances appear to be more reliable than self-reported walk trip distances and car trip times. Regression analysis identifies variables that affect how much the self- reported and calculated distances diverge.},

abstract = {Decisions involving common travel patterns over time, such as traveling to and from the same destination multiple times per week or month, are likely different from decisions involving unique circumstances. Understanding of travel decisions involving common destinations could help with the development of programs, services, and infrastructure aimed at changing travel behavior. This paper explores how common travel destinations can be defined through the use of stated and revealed data (a 5-day GPS trip log). Revealed common destinations were identified through hierarchical agglomerative clustering. A 200-m maximum threshold for defining clusters was found to be appropriate in this context. Three ways of defining "common" were explored through the use of the revealed GPS data on the basis of the number of trips that ended at the cluster or the number of days that trips ended at the cluster. The analysis of travel to and from the revealed common destinations identified some potential for variability that depended on the definition. Common destinations defined by stated data (participant survey data collected before the GPS data were collected) were linked to 46{\%} of all nonhome trip ends. The availability of these stated common destinations will reduce the need to collect information on trip purpose through the use of follow-up surveys or through the imputation of trip purpose with land use data when GPS travel surveys are processed. The analysis also provided insight into the usefulness of multiday data, thus confirming other research.},

These designs range from alternating one-way street grids in central business districts to more radical designs that eliminate crossing conflicts altogether. However, travel distances in such networks are generally higher than in traditional networks. This paper proposes an equilibrium approach for evaluating the trade-off between increased distance and reduced intersection delay in networks of varying topology and demand patterns. To accomplish this objective, suitable link performance functions are developed to reflect different types of intersection control. Three control strategies arc compared: two-way grids, one-way grids, and a vortex design with priority merges. These strategics are compared in grid networks, with analysis of sensitivity to demand levels and other parameters. The vortex-based design generally leads to lower average travel times and higher trip distances. However, at high demand levels the use of gap-acceptance formulas for priority merges with route choice; this union results in unstable, chaotic conditions.},

abstract = {Traffic volume and queue length are two important variable's to identify traffic states in urban areas. Loop detectors are often used for monitoring traffic. A prominent weakness of loop detector data is the limited reliability caused by equipment malfunctions and communication faults. This paper presents a method to identify the validity of loop detector measurements by analyzing the ratio of counts on adjacent lanes. GPS data from probe vehicles are an alternative for monitoring traffic states. These data include instantaneous speed, acceleration, and position; individual vehicle trajectories can be grossly estimated in real time. Consequently, the queue length can be measured approximately. This information can be used to estimate traffic volumes and the percentage of probe vehicles. Combining loop detector and GPS data allows more information regarding traffic status to be extracted from both data sources. This paper discusses two methods to check the volume counts and to fill in missing or invalid data. One method uses the ratio of loop detector counts on parallel links. The other method uses data from probe vehicles to estimate the traffic volumes from the dynamics of the queue length at signalized intersections. Real data from Changsha, China, are used to validate these two methods. The developed methods provide data for the online monitoring of detectors' performance and level of service at signalized intersections.},

For this purpose, a large-scale stated preference (SP) survey (2,500 persons, 30,000 SP responses) was conducted in 2012 with respect to expressway users in the western Japan. The SP survey was designed by reflecting each respondent's personal trip-making experience and travel information preference, which were captured based on a reference preference (RP) survey targeting the same 2,500 respondents. To the authors' knowledge, such a large-scale SP survey may be the first case in the same context in the transportation literature. More importantly, context-dependent real-time travel information is targeted, including accident conditions and impact information, predicted clearance time of congestion (accuracy, point-based and interval-based prediction), and available alternative travel mode for three decision scenes of before departure, on the way to expressway, and on expressway. Analyses based on nested logit models found that interval values (rather than point-based values) of clearance time play a considerably larger role in influencing drivers' adaptation behavior than other information contents and especially, the influences become larger and larger moving from " before departure " to " on the way to expressway " and to " on expressway " . Other common factors across the three scenes are the distance to the accident site, information of no fatal accident, queue length, information of no traffic regulation, clearance time accuracy, and queue decreasing trend. Influences of fatal accident information, clearance time, trip purpose, and clearance time interval information are proved to be significantly different across scenes (i.e., context-dependent).},

While absolute speed has enjoyed much popularity in the literature, other measures such as time-to-collision are currently under developed. Before conflict measures such as time-to-collision can be adopted, several challenges need to be overcome, notably the problem of accurately modeling collision courses and collision probability from normal road user behaviour. This paper describes and explores the feasibility of implementing discretized motion pattern maps for the purpose of predicting potential collisions between road users and their measures based on an empirical naturalistic behaviour model calibrated from site-specific data for use in surrogate safety analysis. The methodology is applied to a pre-existing framework which extracts road user trajectory data from video data of a traffic scene, and then predicts and estimates potential collisions. To this end, this paper examines the motion pattern model discretization process, the probabilistic framework, the resulting indicators, and then compares the motion prediction methodology with that of the classical constant velocity motion prediction methodology. The methodology is explored using road user behaviour inside the weaving zone of a roundabout to illustrate the flawed use of constant velocity motion prediction.},

As the demand for passenger and freight transportation grows and emphasis is placed on increased speed and on-time performance of passenger services, the available capacity becomes even more consumed. When higher speed passenger trains are mixed with freight, the increased heterogeneity from expanding speed differential creates further challenges for reliable operations. Based on the experiences in the other parts of the world (particularly in European rail corridors), the required density and reliability is typically secured through structured/planned/scheduled operations instead of the unstructured, or improvised, operations philosophy that is currently prevalent in the U.S. There are several tools and methodologies available in both the European and U.S. rail environments that utilize user defined infrastructure specifications, operational rules, signaling systems and rolling stock characteristics to evaluate capacity. This paper introduces the main components of two simulation software packages, U.S. developed Rail Traffic Controller (RTC) and European RailSys, and applies them both to a shared-use case study corridor in the U.S. The outputs from each package are compared and the non-timetable based software output (RTC) is applied in the timetable based software (RailSys) as input to form a hybrid model that allows the utilization of timetable compression techniques. The research revealed that simulation outputs from both software packages are very similar, if the trains can be operated according to initial arrival/departure times on the corridor. However, RTC's database and timetable parameters are easier to implement, while RailSys has more timetable management features and options that can be used to improve an existing timetable when introducing new trains running along the corridor.},

The GC region is composed of some 36 communities with a population of 2 million adjacent to the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles and in the vicinity of the Interstate 710 freeway corridor. The study addressed current (2009) and projected future (2035) air quality of criteria pollutants (NOx, CO, SO2, PM10, PM2.5, and Pb) and air toxics (1-3-butadiene, benzene, hexavalent chromium, diesel particulate matter, and formaldehyde). In order to determine the relative contribution of mobile source emissions to air pollution, the study included all anthropogenic emission sources. Onroad vehicles emissions of criteria pollutants were estimated with the California's EMFAC2011 model and a travel demand model, and were characterized as area source polygons approximating roadway links. For all other sources emissions of criteria pollutants, , and air toxics were taken from the South Coast Air Quality Management District's 2008 Air Quality Management Plan emission inventory.  Emissions of air toxics were derived by applying speciation factors to PM2.5 and TOG emissions. The CALPUFF air dispersion model was used to predict air concentrations at each of more than 1400 Census block group centroids. Meteorological inputs were prepared with the CALMET model. This fine spatial resolution of both emissions and modeling receptors allowed a more accurate estimate of the full range of air quality concentrations across the modeling domain than most previous studies. The results showed exceedances of NO2 and PM2.5 NAAQS at many block group centroids in 2009, with about two-thirds of NOx emissions and one-quarter of PM2.5 emissions, including road dust, from onroad vehicles. However, by 2035 the number of centroids in exceedance of NO¬2 and PM2.5 NAAQS were predicted to be reduced to 5 and 65, respectively, due to implementation of air quality improvement measures. Using California's pollutant  toxicity estimates, cancer health risk was dominated by diesel particulate matter with an average 2009 concentration of 4.0 µg/m3 (maximum = 15.1 µg/m3), falling 78{\%} to 0.9 µg/m3 (maximum = 8.1 µg/m3) by 2035, despite an increase in heavy-duty VMT of 65{\%}. In 2009 onroad vehicles risk contribute about 58{\%}, reduced to 54{\%} in 2035.},

Georgia Tech has developed diagrams that display the 9 frequencies of these movements, speeds, or densities at each point along the length of the 10 Express Lanes (See Appendix). At a higher level, these data provide throughput figures for the 11 various segments of the Express Lanes. Animated graphics, also developed at Georgia Tech, 12 show how the spatial distributions of speeds and volumes change over time. Graphics such as 13 these provide insight into the sections of the corridor that are operating properly or are becoming 14 congested. The research identifies merge and flow issues that clearly indicate that existing toll 15 rates and caps are not allowing the lane to function as intended.},

abstract = {Increase in motorized trips and decline in individuals??physical activity have became major challenges for many communities. Numerous studies have investigated the benefits of promoting non-motorized modes of transportation on public health, economy, environment, transportation, etc, and suggested a range of policies to be considered by the policy-makers. A significant portion of the active transportation literature is made up of studies that are focused on a single purpose of trip. This research investigated and compared walking behaviors in a diverse range of trip purposes, including work, study and shopping trips. A series of behavioral choice models are introduced using a range of explanatory variables including individual; household; travel; and environmental variables. Among individual variables, age and gender were found to be significantly related to walking. Results show that seniors are more likely to walk in work trips. Also, females are more interested to walk during work and shopping trips, however, they are less active during trips for the purpose of study. Results show that individual who has a car in his/her household is less motivates to walk for the investigated trip purposes. Time of day was also found effective on decision to walk in various trip purposes. Another significant factor is the travel distance which diversely affects walking in all models. A number of variables are also discussed in the article and some issues are suggested for future research.},

abstract = {India has a long coastline, spanning 7516.6 kilometers, constituting one of the biggest peninsulas in the world. It is serviced by 13 major ports (12 government owned and 1 private) and 200 minor and intermediate ports. Indian ports are classified as Major, Intermediate and, Minor ports; this classification has an administrative significance. However, the words " major " , " intermediate " and, " minor " do not have a strict association with the traffic volumes served by these ports. There is no systematic study that classifies Indian ports from the view of temporal variation of cargo traffic. In this study we have devised an approach for port classification based on temporal cargo variation and applied the same to the major ports in India. Based on the analysis we propose to classify the major seaports into five groups. It is found that four-year annual average cargo share for seaports within each group are comparable. We have also developed univariate time series models for estimating freight demand in these ports. The annual average total traffic handled by the major ports is 55.35 million tons for the last five years. The 5 years average freight growth rate is about 6.6{\%} for total traffic at all the major ports in India. The models are developed by cargo operation and port class. The average prediction error form the developed models are within 8{\%} at most of the ports.},

abstract = {1 The purpose of this paper is to identify changes in effective capacity and weaving before and 2 after the conversion of an HOV lane to an HOT lane. Vehicle speed and count data was extracted 3 from the GDOT video-detection system (VDS), and lane changes were extracted from footage 4 recorded from pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras along the corridor. Speed-density and speed-flow 5 plots are generated for each of the three periods of the conversion. Two methods for estimating 6 the effective capacity and speed corresponding to that capacity are presented. Although 7 conclusions are not definitive, the effective capacity and the speed of the managed lane increase 8 after the conversion (HOT operation). Smaller increases in effective capacity and speed are noted 9 for the left-most general purpose lane after the conversion took place. 10 A second analysis assesses the impact of weaving activity on HOT speeds. A linear 11 regression indicates that before the conversion, general purpose lane speeds had the greatest 12 impact in estimating the HOV lane speed. The density of lane changes into and out of the HOT 13 lane did not show up as a significant variable. However, after HOT operations began, weaving 14 density did show up as a significant variable, albeit still less significant than general purpose 15 speed. This is likely due to the fact that the managed lane is now priced (decreasing the 16 correlation between the speed of the general purpose lanes and HOT lane) and enforcement 17 heavily discouraging illegal use of the lane. 18 Weaving density appearing as a significant variable in explaining HOT speed warrants 19 further investigation that may lead to more conclusive results.},

Walking activity is measured through a 7-day assessment of 715 unique study participants living in King County, WA; wearing a global positioning system (GPS) and an accelerometer, and filling in a travel diary. Built environment variables are defined through SmartMaps, which are localized (rasterized) measures of neighborhood- level urban form characteristics. The ZINB model allows for the analysis of two separate but related phenomena: first, differentiating between locations where walking activity does or does not occur and examining built environment attributes associated any walking; and second, estimating the built environment characteristics that are likely to increase the amount of observed walking activity. Model results showed weak associations between the built environment and walking. However, whereas any walking activity was significantly related to the number of destinations in the neighborhood and street intersection density, amounts of walking was associated with neighborhood residential density. The study is first to offer insights into the modeling of GPS-based walking activity for large populations.},

abstract = {ABSTRACT Most current Travel Demand Management (TDM) programs such as vanpooling, ridesharing, or transit focus on managing travel demand of specific groups of commuters but are limited in effectively managing demand for automobile drivers, who are unable or unwilling to participate in such programs.  This paper highlights results from a pilot field study conducted in a large west coast city experiencing major traffic congestion, and documents results of the use of an incentive-based active demand management (ADM) system focusing on automobile commuters. The system, called “Metropia,” predicts future traffic conditions, applies a proprietary routing algorithm to find time-dependent shortest paths for different departure times, and, based on user request, provides automobile travelers with multiple departure times and route choices. Each of these travel choices are assigned points values, with higher points (and thus more valuable rewards) available for travelling during off-peak times and less congested routes, and lower points available for peak traffic travel times. The goal of this ADM system is to improve traffic flow and commuter travel times citywide, alleviating heavily congested areas without the use of new roadway construction by incentivizing travelers to change their travel behavior and avoid traffic congestion.  The level of rewards points available to users (commuters) by the system depends on the travelers' behavioral change degree and their contributions to traffic congestion alleviation. This system was implemented in Los Angeles, Calif., USA, as a small scale pilot field study carried out beginning April 2013 and lasting for 10 weeks. Results from this field study show the system is able to accurately predict travel time with Relative Mean Absolute Error (RMAE) as low as 15.20{\%}. Significant travel behavior changes were observed which validate the concept of using incentives to influence people's travel behavior. Furthermore, field study results show 20{\%} travel time can be saved for people who changed their travel behavior.},

As San Francisco has begun investing in various projects to reduce travel time variability, the tradeoffs between different alternatives have been difficult to quantify using existing tools. This paper investigates and quantifies the effects of modal conflicts on bus travel along a 3.6-mile study corridor, as well as each conflict's contribution to unreliability. Instances of modal conflict are modeled as Bernoulli trials or other simple probabilistic events and include: vehicles entering or exiting parking spaces; double-parked vehicles; and vehicles queuing for pedestrians while executing turning movements. Cumulative distributions of modal conflict events are presented and analyzed, resulting in estimates of average delay and variance of delay from bus to bus. Sensitivity analyses illustrate and quantify nonlinearity of delay and variance of delay with respect to the number and severity of events. The convolution of distributions of delay for each conflict type may also be calculated, provided the causes of delay are independent.},

abstract = {Transportation agencies' motor vehicle count programs tend to be well established and robust with clear guidelines to collect short-term count data, to analyze data, develop annual average daily traffic (AADT) adjustment factors, and to estimate AADT volumes. In contrast, bicycle and pedestrian traffic monitoring is an area of work for most transportation agencies. In most agencies, there are a low numbers of counting sites and limited agency experience to manage a city-wide or state-wide system of collecting, processing, and using nonmotorized data. Short duration counts are used to estimate longer duration volumes such as AADT. Because bicycle or pedestrian short- term counts vary dramatically over time and significantly more than motorized vehicle counts, the direct application of motorized vehicle AADTestimation methods may be inadequate. The goal of this paper is to present a methodology that will enhance, if needed, existingAADT estimation methods widely employed for motorized vehicle counts. The proposed methodology is based on the analysis of AADTestimation errors using regression models to estimate a correcting function that accounts for weather and activity factors. The methodology can be applied to any type of traffic with high volume variability but in this research is applied to a permanent bicycle counting station in Portland, Oregon. The results indicate that the proposed methodology is simple and useful for finding ideal short-term counting conditions and improving AADT estimation accuracy.},

Such systems are new in the U.S. recently enabled due to some states adopting legislation addressing insurance issues. Public policy objectives of such a program include expanding the mobility options for underserved populations and reducing peak period driving. The later would happen if vehicle owners leave their car to be rented during the peak period rather than driving and if renters do not offset that mileage equally. This paper aims to understand who is participating in peer-to-peer carsharing as a car owner and how it is affecting their transportation opportunities and choices. Data are from 224 car owners in the City of Portland who enrolled in a P2P program during its initial months. The analysis indicates that P2P vehicles reached a larger number of low-income households than the traditional carsharing model. There is potential to reduce peak driving among the car owners; very few of the households could simply shift their driving to another household vehicle. Large shares (36-50{\%}) said they would shift their driving to different times and days or to other modes The owners who currently drive the most during the peak were the most likely to drive alone to work and do have favorable attitudes towards non-auto modes. On average, the owners in the study tend to be relatively young, very well educated, and slightly better off financially than the typical Portland resident.},

RRTDs do not have taxing authority, 7 however, and lack of a dedicated funding source has prevented many RRTDs from being 8 successful in either preventing rail abandonment or implementing proposed rail projects.

abstract = {This study addressed the modeling of route travel times (including their associated uncertainty) in urban networks based on taxi floating car data. The model decomposes observed link travel speeds into the expected speed (modeled with daily and seasonal profiles) and deviations thereof. The latter were shown to be strongly heteroscedastic by providing an explicit model for the time variance. Temporal and spatial correlations were considered with a vector autoregression framework. Modeling was supported by automatic model selection methods for identifying the relevant effects and providing one-step-ahead predictions. The potential of the proposed model was investigated with taxi floating car data from a real-world test site near the city core of Vienna, Austria. Various specifications of the vector autoregression model were tested and compared. Taxi floating car measurements of local speeds were found to be strongly heteroscedastic, a factor that must be considered in estimation of models for expected travel speeds. The modeling of the mean suggested no remaining daily or weekly patterns, and it was superior to simple models explaining travel speeds as a linear function of the travel speeds in the last time period. The variance model successfully captured heteroscedasticity. More complex models for link travel speeds, including temporal and spatial correlation, do not increase prediction accuracy consistently; the lack indicates that a sampling frequency of 15 min for floating car data in urban settings is too low for use of temporal dependencies for prediction. An introduced method for computing route travel time uncertainty showed variability over the day for a highly frequented route.},

We focus on theoretical and practical aspects of the travel time KW model in real-world traveler information and traffic management applications. The travel time kinematic wave (KW) model is an equivalent representation of the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) model. The model preserves both the spatial representation in Euler model and the numerical and formulation benefits in Lagrangian model, making it suitable for conducting traffic state estimation based on prevailing mobile sensor data such as GPS, cellular, and Bluetooth probe data. In this paper, we provide an in-depth discussion on the physical meaning of the model revealed through a heuristic derivation of the travel time KW model and the rigorous proof of its requivalenso to the other two Euler and Lagrangian model. We extend the Lax-Hopf formulations and solution methods proposed in Laval and Leclercq's study to account for internal boundary problems that may be used to formulating signalized intersection, active traffic management, and the emerging connected vehicle data. Meanwhile, by comparing the two Lagrangian formulations of LWR with respect to vehicle sinks and sources, route-based, and lane-based applications, we attempt to provide a realistic perspective on the potentials and challenges facing Lagrangian traffic flow models.},

abstract = {1 The literature on induced demand suggests that transportation system interventions that improve 2 travel time not only result in short-term responses by travelers to shift modes, times of travel 3 and routes, but also include longer-term influences on land use outcomes that further affect travel 4 demand. This literature has not explored, however, whether improvements in travel time reliability 5 might generate long-term impacts on real estate markets. Even the casual observer would likely 6 agree that unreliable travel time to work is problematic, and a growing body of research has begun 7 to measure the degree to which travelers value travel time reliability by analyzing their route or 8 mode choices. To our knowledge, however, no one has yet addressed the question of whether travel 9 time reliability has longer-term effects beyond daily travel decisions, by influencing real estate 10 market outcomes. Is travel time reliability valued enough by individuals, households, and firms to 11 be capitalized into higher real estate prices and rents in locations with more reliable accessibility? 12 Does reliability have enough value to influence long-term choices of households or firms regarding 13 where they rent or purchase real estate? These are the questions explored in this research.},

These methods of data 4 acquisition are both resource intensive and time-consuming, especially when large study areas 5 are involved. The availability of remotely sensed geo-rectified aerial images provides an 6 inexpensive alternative to acquiring these data via automatic feature extraction. This paper 7 presents a method to automatically extract number of lanes from high-resolution geo-rectified 8 aerial images. In this method, geographic coordinates of a target roadway are precisely mapped 9 to pixels in aerial images. These pixels are first grouped into fixed-length profiles. Saturation 10 threshold is then applied to exclude profiles covering non-paved areas such as plants and 11 building roofs. Lane profile candidates are then identified from the remaining profiles using the 12 Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification technique. Number of lanes is then estimated by 13 optimizing the lane locations based on the lane profile candidates and lane width constraints. The 14 method is tested using the geo-rectified aerial images of Miami-Dade County in Florida. For all 15 the six test cases involving two-lane and four-lane suburban roadway segments, the method 16 accurately determined the number of lanes. The test results indicate that it is feasible to extract 17 number of lanes from geo-rectified aerial images in suburban and urban areas using the method 18 developed in this research. 19 20},

For this purpose, this study adopted a web-based life choice survey (as a tool of the life-oriented approach), which includes people's subjective evaluation about the life satisfaction and the behavioral information from a variety of life domains, including residence, leisure and recreation, job, health, neighborhood, family budget, education and learning, and family life as well as travel behavior . The survey was conducted with respect to residents in major Japanese cities in 2010. Here, residential environment is measured using distance to various daily facilities surrounding the residence, and travel behavior is defined by vehicle ownership and trip making, which contains travel mode choice and frequency by trip purpose. Analysis results first revealed that the Bayesian Network approach is applicable to explore the travel behavior issues in this study. Next, it is confirmed that all of the life domains interact with each other. Most prominently, satisfaction with leisure and recreation, residence contribute most to the overall life satisfaction. It is also found that people's overall life satisfaction can be greatly shaped and enhanced by travel behavior and residential environment. Complex interdependencies between residential environment and travel behavior are clarified, too. Furthermore, the analysis by updating the Bayesian network provides useful insights for supporting land use and transport policies. Finally, it is concluded that impacts of urban and transportation policies on quality of life can be properly captured by making better use of the life-oriented approach and the Bayesian network approach simultaneously.},

The AADBT value is usually estimated by averaging the daily cyclist totals recorded with a long-term automatic counter or by using such a counter to extrapolate short-term counts. The latter method, often referred to as the expansion factor method, produces estimates with considerable error. In an effort to mitigate this error, two AADBT estimation methods were proposed: one that uses a cycling weather model to adjust short-term counts and one that is based on individual daily totals from long-term counts (as opposed to annual averages by day or by month). These methods were compared with two traditional expansion factor methods. The weather and disaggregate methods outperformed the traditional methods, which produced an average absolute relative error of roughly 11{\%} when based on 1 day of short-term data.},

abstract = {Evacuation phasing or staging is a technique used to disperse traffic so that sudden, wide-ranging surges in travel demand do not overwhelm the available capacity of a road network during an emergency. Despite their many benefits, phased evacuations are not an appropriate strategy for all locations and conditions. Even though researchers have evaluated various aspects of their use, little, if any, systematic study of staged evacuations has been conducted over large multiregional areas. A research effort to simulate staged evacuations in a megaregion addresses this information gap. Megaregions are thought to be particularly vulnerable to evacuation problems because of their enormous populations, wide geographic expanses, and common locations along oceanic coasts or major inland waterways. A range of demand levels was used to investigate the effects of phased evacuation under different scenarios of road network congestion. Because mass evacuations are infrequent and a full megaregion evacuation never has been conducted, this simulation-based framework offered an opportunity to create and assess a megaregion mass evacuation in microlevel detail. Simulation results revealed that the effectiveness of phased evacuations could vary widely according to the level of demand and congestion in the network. In general, no significant improvements could be gained by phasing when the network was only marginally congested or in the absence of congestion. The methods presented can be used for other locations and for other types of hazards, but whether similar levels of effectiveness would be experienced in other locations or for other events is unknown.},

Classical modeling approaches typically fail to meet these requirements and state-of-the-practice approaches only partly fulfill them. Therefore, the underlying hypothesis of this study was that the application of such models in network design implied an ill-advised decision-making process.

Transportation planning in these regions requires an understanding of specialized industry sectors and enhancement of business network effects which are important for the augmentation of positive externalities and competitive advantage through transportation interventions. The directness of linkages or enhanced access between buyers and suppliers in any production network is more important now than ever before for enabling agglomeration economies, maximizing returns from investments and in some cases, industry competitiveness. Physical transport networks play a vital role in ensuring that directness in many manufacturing sectors where value chain segments are separated physically. In this paper, the contribution of transportation infrastructure in mega-regions characterized by such supply chains to enhance business networks is approached by presenting a framework for a behaviorally-consistent directness measure explicitly linked to transport infrastructure. Enhanced accessibility provided by transportation, can be measured by this index by allowing a systematic identification of links from the standpoint of the buyer/supplier. Such a directness measure has been broached in the literature but this is, to our knowledge, the first attempt at developing a measure like this. Next, we illustrate how the measure may be analyzed using the context of the automobile manufacturing chain that is part of the Southeast Piedmont Atlantic Megaregion.},

A latent class (LC) model is presented that allows for 3 heterogeneity both in the tastes, and the nature and magnitude of any reference dependence. In addition to 4 the expected taste heterogeneity, differences in reference dependence across the sample are observed. For 5 both attributes for which reference dependence is possible in this study, running cost and trip time, a lack of 6 reference dependence is most common, followed by loss aversion, then, for a small but significant minority, 7 gain seeking. Two classes have no reference dependence to either attribute, and are differentiated by the 8 magnitude of the values of time. Two classes present mixed evidence about the reference dependence across 9 the attributes. One class demonstrates loss aversion to both attributes, leading to a clear willingness to pay 10 (WTP)/willingness to accept (WTA) asymmetry, where the mean value represents a near average value of 11 time. Most intriguing is a class, representing about 9 percent of the sample, which exhibits gain seeking to 12 both attributes, and a high value of time. The gain seeking thus pushes the high WTP higher.

abstract = {There is growing interest amongst both practitioners and researchers in the correlates of young adults' driving-licence-acquisition. One aspect of the ongoing scholarly debate is whether taking part in online (i.e. virtual) activities may be associated with young adults feeling less need to drive and hence to acquire a driving licence. This paper addresses this issue by drawing on analysis of two distinct datasets. Both contain rich pseudo-diary instruments in which people indicate detailed characteristics of their unique online-activity profile. This includes both indicators of the types of online activities in which respondents participate, and a separate metric of internet-use intensity. The latter is defined in one dataset as the amount of time/week spent online, and in the other dataset the frequency of their internet use. On the basis of a set of multivariate regression analyses, a positive (i.e. complementary) cross-sectional relationship between young adults' online activity and licence-holding was found. We find that young adults who use the internet are, net of confounding effects, more likely to hold a driving licence than otherwise identical young adults who do not use the internet. Both datasets show this type of effect, and it is robust across a range of model specifications, including multi-stage estimations to address cross-correlation between indicators of internet usage. In addition to the positive net statistical association, we also report several other noteworthy effects. Of the six effects associated with online-activity types that are directly comparable between the two datasets, we find that the correlation in the parameter estimates across the two datasets is 0.63. This suggests similar types of relationships across the two datasets. Also, in several (but not all) of our analyses we found an inverted 'U' shaped ceteris paribus relationship between intensity-of-internet-use and licence-holding. The positive net statistical association between internet use and licence-holding is a different relationship than previously reported in the literature, and therefore further research is needed to reconcile the differences (which are likely due at least in part to different methodological approaches and data resources). Further research is also needed to continue to resolve between the relative saliency of other hypothesised determinants of licence-holding (e.g. economic and socio-demographic explanators, as well as licence-acquisition regimes that vary by time and place). {\textcopyright} 2014 Springer Science+Business Media New York.},

Parameters are estimated using ordinary least squares (OLS) and simultaneous 5 equation model (SEM) regression analysis. 6 Results indicate that neighborhood type has a large and significant effect on the dispersal of travel by 7 residents, whereas regional effects, found elsewhere to be very large, are quite small. Distance from the 8 core also has a significant impact on dispersal, but only in the first 8 km surrounding the city center. Of 9 the other regional land use variables tested, very few were found to be significant predictors of dispersal, 10 only proportion population within the inner metro area, employment center access and metropolitan area 11 shape. Of note, neither metropolitan area nor population, which were hypothesized to have a significant 12 impact on dispersal, were found to be significant predictors. Finally, the hypothesis of endogeneity in 13 explanatory variables was investigated and rejected. 14 These results indicate that policies aimed at developing dense and mixed urban settlements would carry 15 with them the beneficial effect of reducing travel dispersal, even if not built adjacent to the central 16 business district.},

The Lagrangian-space coordinate system allows the TTM to preserve the efficient cell-based 4 network representation of the cell transmission model (CTM) while gaining the numerical benefits and 5 vehicle-based representation of Lagrangian traffic flow models. In contrast to the flow-and density-based 6 traffic state estimation of the CTM, the proposed model estimates travel time and time headway (the 7 inverse of flow). This facilitates model calibration using traffic flow data obtained from point detectors 8 and probe vehicles. The numerical process in TTM updates link traffic states by evaluating the travel time 9 changes caused by the propagation of vehicles. A modified node model is introduced in which 10 intersection delay can be easily formulated. Furthermore, the analogy of the vehicle propagation process 11 facilitates the formulation of queuing at the cell level. The proposed model is tested using a simple four-12 link network, in which the TTM is found to be able to reproduce the shock boundaries of the theoretical 13 solution more efficiently than the CTM.},

To avoid 47 potential endogeneity bias we jointly model attitudes and choice for the first time with best-worst data.

abstract = {1 The lane change process is a tactical process. However, the transitions among important tactical 2 nodes are largely ignored in the existing microscopic lane change models. Prior to the lane 3 change maneuver, the merging vehicles need to reach the feasible lane change location (the 4 desired merge position), which is right after the target gap selection. This study explores how the 5 merging vehicle choose and approach the desired merge position in a congested merge area, 6 which may trigger the understanding of the complex lane change behavior and help microscopic 7 traffic flow modeling. 8 This paper reports a fundamental work by classifying the merging vehicles into " targeting 9 original gap " type and " targeting forward gap " type. The statistical analysis results indicate that 10 these two types of merging vehicles have different selection behavior of desired merge location. 11 The gap distance between putative leader (PL) and putative follower (PF), the vehicle type of PL 12 and speed difference between merging vehicle and vehicles surrounding it have influence on the 13 desired merge location selection of merging vehicles. 14 To investigate how the merging vehicles approach their desired merge position, the speed 15 synchronization and the acceleration behavior of merging vehicles are analyzed in the 16 approaching process. The results illustrate the acceleration behavior of the " taking forward gap " 17 type merging vehicles should be staged modeled depending on their location. Findings from this 18 study could shed light on the interpretation of complex lane changing.},

abstract = {A formulation is proposed to address the trade-off between transit user access and trip connectivity. Transit access is typically regarded as the physical proximity to transit service. Additional stops can provide greater access to the service and reduce walking distance to stops. However, closer stops do not guarantee that routes serving the stops are well connected to desired trip destinations. In general, transit riders are willing to walk longer distances to access a stop that has frequent transit service, requires less wait time, and is well connected to their desired destinations. Frequent stops on the way to these desired destinations, although they provide shorter walking distance for some passengers, increase dwell time; this dwell time results in a smaller portion of the network's being connected within a certain travel time, which is an important element of the connectivity of the system. The proposed methodology considers both the impact of access distance to transit stops and trip connections to destinations for determining optimal stop locations and setting optimal transit line frequencies. The bus stop location model is formulated as a mixed-integer program and the coin-or branch-and-cut solver is used to solve the problem. Sensitivity analyses are performed and computational results are presented for an illustrative example. To illustrate the usefulness of the model, the formulation is applied to the bus transit network in New Haven, Connecticut, as a case study.},

Ordered probit models are developed independently for car and motorcycle ownership 4 considering explanatory variables related to income, household size, residential location, age, gender and access to 5 public transportation. The relationship between car and motorcycle ownership is evaluated considering correlation 6 and substitution effects. The results show that, in accordance with previous assumptions and empirical findings, 7 income has an unequivocal positive effect on car ownership while medium-to-low income level households 8 present the higher levels of motorcycle ownership. Additionally, even though there exist negative correlation and 9 substitution effects, they are not highly significant and hence independent modeling of car and motorcycle 10 ownership would not generate important biases. Suggestions for further research indicate the need to replicate the 11 analysis in cities with much higher motorcycle ownership levels.},

abstract = {This paper proposes a methodology to model the network-level impacts of eco-routing policies using a Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) platform. The DTA model is used to estimate recurrent traffic conditions based on Dynamic User Equilibrium (DUE) principles, and provides the inputs required to find feasible eco-routes for all origin-destination (OD) pairs in the network. The focus of this study is on the short-term impacts of eco-routing strategies, which reflect the changes in network performance due to the shifting of drivers to eco-routes. This work does not consider the subsequent driver learning process that may result in further route changing behavior for all drivers in the system based on the new prevalent traffic conditions. A number of parametric tests are conducted on two networks (Austin, TX, and Nicosia, Cyprus) assuming that different fractions of drivers are re-routed into the corresponding eco-path. The simulation engine in the DTA package is used to assess the impact of the proposed policies and to compute fuel consumption. Future modeling efforts can easily incorporate CO2 emissions and other air-quality measures. Eco-routing schemes have recently been considered (and applied) due to advancements in In-vehicle navigation systems and real-time estimates of fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. However, the network-level impacts of such strategies are not simple to predict. The use of DTA in the context of eco-routing allows studying very large areas which could not be modeled using other approaches. It also provides the means to compute a number of interesting performance metrics, including changes in distance traveled, average speed, and system travel time. These may lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the considered problem. Further, our modeling efforts suggest that in order to achieve system-level energy savings, fairly complex eco-routing strategies may be needed, particularly when long-term driver's behavior is considered. DTA models can be a powerful tool to develop and test such approaches.},

abstract = {1 An important variable to characterize freeway traffic flow is the net time headway. In this paper empirical 2 net time headway distributions with respect to four different speed classes as well as the right and left lane 3 were analyzed. As passenger cars represented the vast majority of the vehicles, only pairs of passenger 4 cars (leader/follower) were considered. 5 It could be shown that the net time headway distributions strongly depend on the traffic lane and 6 the speed class. To estimate the corresponding probability density functions (pdf), the gamma-7 Generalized-Queuing-Model was used and model parameters were estimated by applying a non-linear 8 least squares approach. 9 The microscopic traffic simulation tool Vissim was used to address the main objective of this 10 study, namely to determine if and to what extend the empirical distributions of the net time headways can 11 be met by simulations. To achieve this goal, the number of vehicle classes required together with specific 12 parameter settings was investigated, whereby again the pdf and its parameters were estimated for each 13 simulation scenario. 14 It could be shown that substantial improvements regarding the reduction of the deviations 15 between simulated and empirical headway distributions can be achieved by adding vehicle classes for 16 passenger cars to account for a relatively wide distribution of observed empirical net time headways. 17 Additional findings were related to the sensitivity of the parameters of the microscopic model as well as 18 those of the density functions. 19 Potential future research includes, amongst others, extended parameter studies and applying the 20 methodology to other car following models. 21 TRB 2014 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Commercial motorcycle service is the use of motorcycles for carrying passengers for a fare. A system dynamics modelling method is adopted for its capacity to describe and analyse systems and their dynamic behaviour in both quantitative and qualitative manner. In this paper, a system dynamic model is used to develop the trend of risk taking behaviour and deterrence amidst commercial motorcycle riders. As a first step, qualitative data was obtained from stakeholders in the operation of the mode. With emphasis on the safety challenge of this para-transit mode, the qualitative data obtained together with literature on commercial motorcycle was used to develop a system dynamics model to show the interactions among the elements of the system. The model analysis revealed that a system dynamics model is a good tool for describing the behaviour of system parameters which may not usually appear in traditional models but may be responsible for the system's behaviour leading into negative impacts on society.},

abstract = {This paper presents the findings of modeling the use of car share services for different trip purposes in Halifax, Canada. It also investigates the modes car share members would choose for those trip purposes, in absence of the car share service. The study uses latent class modeling techniques utilizing data from a web-based travel survey of existing car share members in Halifax, Canada in 2012. The paper includes two latent class models (LCM): (1) trip purposes when members uses car share services and (2) mode choice in the absence of car share. The first model investigates the purpose of accessing car share, which considers four purposes: (1) work related, (2) shopping, (3) personal business, and (4) recreational and others. The second model examines the mode choice behavior of car share members and considers five modes in the choice set: (1) transit, (2) bicycle, (3) walk, (4) taxi, and (5) other (carpool and rental car). The parameter estimates of the trip purpose model suggest that socio- economic characteristics, location of accessing car share, membership plans, travel attributes, and neighborhood characteristics are highly significant in explaining the purpose of accessing car share services. In case of the mode choice model, socio-economic characteristics, travel attributes, and neighborhood characteristics are the major predictors of mode choices in absence of the car share services. The findings of modeling travel behaviors of car share members will assist decision-makers to develop a more attractive, competitive, and easily accessible car share program.},

The case illustrates that even a mega-city with several different transit providers can create a fully-functional GTFS feed in a matter of weeks and obtain the benefits of work done elsewhere; thanks to the global open data ecosystem, a range of important free or low-cost applications – customer-facing applications and planning tools – can immediately capitalize on these data.

abstract = {Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC, 20001, USA; Rapid growth in developing countries without adequate public transportation facility has led to increased dependence on motorized vehicles. However, absence of bicycle friendly infrastructure has influenced modal shift from Non-Motorized Transportation mode to Motorized transportation mode, leading to congestion, delay, pollution, higher accident rates and increased demand on fossil fuels. With all these concerns, non-motorized mode, such as bicycle, is gaining importance as a viable choice in urban transportation, in general in small sized cities in particular due to shorter trip length. In order to examine individual travel behavior and investigate the market for Non-Motorized Transportation small sized cities, impedance of travel distance of bicycle has been studied across various population sub-groups using the concept of distance-decay. The data derived from Travel-Behavior survey in Kharagpur is used for the analysis. Results reveal that travel behavior vary significantly across several categories. Examination of decay curves reveals that 2-3 km is the equilibrium distance for bicycling, as around this trip length different sub-groups perceive the benefit of bicycle usage equally. Marginal decrease in trip patronage with 1 km increase in trip length has been computed and rate of change of this marginal decrease has also been computed and compared across various user groups, trip purposes and socio-economic characteristics. The overall analysis shows that as most of the trips are shorter in length there is a huge market for promoting bicycle as safe and sustainable mode of transport and these results can be effectively used for planning of bicycle facilities.},

abstract = {5 This paper aims to solve the minimum path travel time budget (MPTTB) problem, where the 6 travel time budget is the reliability index. This index is defined as the sum of the mean path 7 travel time and the scaled standard deviation, which includes the covariance matrix to consider 8 correlation. Two different existing solution methods in the literature, Outer Approximation 9 algorithm and Monte Carlo Simulation method are applied to solve the MPTTB problem. The 10 former approximates the hard non-linear constraint of the MPTTB problem by a series of linear 11 " cuts " generated iteratively, and repeatedly solves a mixed integer program. The latter, which is 12 a simulation based method, includes two stages. The first stage finds a set of candidate paths and 13 the second stage generates distribution of travel times for the existing paths in the candidate set. 14 The numerical results for these two solution methods are conducted on the Chicago Sketch 15 network and results show that the methods find comparable solutions, though they have 16 respective advantages and drawbacks. Although the outer approximation algorithm demonstrates 17 promising performance, it still relies on repeatedly solving a mixed integer program (sub-18 problem) using a commercial solver, which can be a challenging task in its own right. The 19 simulation-based method offers a good " Plan B " in the case where other algorithms encounter 20 difficulties. 21 22 INTRODUCTION 1 This paper considers the problem of choosing the best route between an origin-2 destination pair in a network with random link travel times. The distribution of these random 3 travel times are given and subject to no perception or measurement errors. In this context, the 4 simplest assumption for route choice is that travelers would always minimize the expected travel 5 time (see e.g. 1-8). However, minimizing the expected travel time does not necessarily account 6 for travel reliability. Wu and Nie (9) classify the reliability-based route choice models into the 7 following four classes according to how the " reliability index " is defined: 8 • On-time arrival probability/percentile travel time (10-15) 9 • Travel time budget/effective travel time (16-21) 10 • Expected utility theory (22-27) 11 • Robust optimization (28-31) 12 Wu and Nie (9) show that these different reliability measures may be related to each 13 other using a stochastic dominance (SD) approach, which also provides a general solution 14 method for finding optimal paths defined with respect to many of these reliability measures. 15 However, the SD-based method is inefficient when correlations between link travel times are 16 considered, essentially because dynamic programming based on the non-dominated rule is not 17 applicable with correlations. Correlations have been considered in various stochastic shortest 18 path problems. According to how the correlations are represented, the existing studies may be 19 classified into three categories: 20 • Correlation structure is represented using a discrete joint distribution (8,32-34) 21 • Correlations are restricted to adjacent links and represented through a Markovian process 22 that governs the state transition on links (6,7,13) 23 • Correlation structure is represented using a covariance matrix (17,18,35) 24},

Google has reaffirmed its commitment to public 'Level 4' vehicles in mixed traffic by 2018, and has been testing their vehicles. But, while some public-sector transit agencies have already started to think about the impacts of increasing levels of vehicle-automation, many have limited awareness of the mobility opportunities these technologies can offer that may impact structurally on planned investment programs. Meanwhile, over the last decade European researchers have been planning for these new technologies and implementing practical demonstrations (as well as extensive research). Automation also offers opportunities for other models of transportation that are currently coming on board such as car share programs. Shared-mobility providers are generally private-sector entities facing a different competitive environment than public transit operators; there are both far-reaching visions of fully-automated taxi-style services and more near-term opportunities for shared-mobility fleets to serve as testbeds for moderate levels of automation.

Key conclusions are that significant progress has been made in recent years, 5 with both vehicle and infrastructure technologies and regulations, but infrastructure development 6 is starting to lag well behind expected market needs. 7 8 Key Words: hydrogen fuel cell, electric vehicle, fuel dispensing, infrastructure, codes and 9 standards 10 11 12 INTRODUCTION 13 Several major automakers are preparing to produce and sell hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles 14 (FCVs) in the 2015-2017 timeframe in the United States (U.S.), Europe, Asia, and other 15 international markets. These vehicles have benefitted from two decades of intense development 16 efforts by major manufacturers and government research laboratories, and complementary 17 improvements in electric drivetrain components for hybrid electric and battery-electric vehicles. 18 These include more powerful and efficient electric motors and motor controllers, advanced 19 battery cells and modules based on lithium-based chemistries, more sophisticated battery 20 managements systems, regenerative braking systems, and electrically actuated auxiliary systems. 21 However, unlike other electric-drive vehicle types – hybrid electric, plug-in hybrid 22 electric, and battery electric vehicles – that rely upon widely available gasoline and electricity 23 infrastructure to refuel, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles require a novel hydrogen fuel-dispensing 24 infrastructure. Much progress has been made in developing codes and standards for retail 25 hydrogen fuel dispensing, along with technical progress in hydrogen storage, compression, and 26 dispensing systems. Even so, however, early experience has shown that hydrogen stations are 27 challenging to site, permit, and construct, and require considerable maintenance, raising unique 28 challenges for the introduction of this new fuel type. We emphasize in this paper that the 29 combination and regulatory (permitting) and technical challenges associated with significantly 30 expanding hydrogen infrastructure, at the now rapid pace needed to match vehicle 31 commercialization plans, should not be underestimated. 32 This paper reviews recent technical progress in high-pressure, high-purity hydrogen gas 33 dispensing for vehicle applications, international policies and programs that support expansion in 34 the use of hydrogen fuel, the latest developments in hydrogen fuel codes and standards, and 35 some " lessons learned " in operating a 700-bar hydrogen station at the University of California – 36 Berkeley over the past two years. Following these sections, conclusions are reached with regard 37 to key near term development and deployment needs as well as remaining areas for technical 38 improvement. 39 40 CURRENT AUTOMAKER PLANS TO INTRODUCE FUEL CELL VEHICLES 41 After about 20 years of development, FCV technology has progressed to the point where almost 42 all major automotive companies are planning to introduce commercial vehicles in the 2015 to 43 2017 timeframe. Key recent developments have included progress in automotive fuel cell 44 systems based on proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell technology, hydrogen fuel 45 dispensing codes and standards, and related developments in hydrogen fueling technology (e.g., 46},

The risk of apprehension for minor violations was zero, which shows that both police officers and speed cameras allow a safety margin before citing a driver for speeding. There was a dose-response relationship between the level of speeding and the risk of apprehension: the more severe the violation, the higher the risk of apprehension. In general, however, the risk of apprehension for speeding is very low and tends to be overestimated by drivers.},

Results were 31 ambiguous, but there is no clear support for the hypothesis. However, the study 32 has serious limitations and is essentially inconclusive. It nevertheless identifies an 33 approach that might give clearer results if the study is replicated in larger sample 34 of countries. 35 36 37 38 39 40 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Carsharing services allow users to benefit from the advantages of a private car without the costs of owning one. One-way systems provide users with a higher level of service than traditional carsharing systems in terms of flexibility because users do not need to return to the station of origin. Moreover, the added option to leave the vehicle at any free parking area, which is not necessarily a station, increases the flexibility offered by the one-way system. Introduction of such improvements to the carsharing system, however, leads to a vehicle relocation problem, which should be addressed carefully to avoid concentration of vehicles in certain areas. This paper reports on a study of this issue with the use of discrete event systems (DESs), which allowed an easy representation of the complex dynamics of the carsharing system. A user-based methodology was proposed on the basis of an optimal relocation policy in a rolling horizon framework. This methodology not only offers greater flexibility to users, it also maximizes operator benefits by reducing the number of required staff to relocate vehicles among the stations and determines the minimum number of vehicles needed to satisfy system demand. The DES model was applied to a case study to evaluate the proposed approach. The results showed a significant decrease in the rejection rate from the worst scenario (no relocation) to the best (relocation of all vehicles by their users). The paper concludes with suggestions for additional research and improvements to this study.},

In Brazil, especially in the Amazon Region, such matter began being studied in the 70's, when several plans and projects for economic development were created.

Since the decision makers focused on territorial occupation of Amazon Region not concerning with transportation planning models that explore the natural resources available, such as the great rivers. In that view, this paper sets out to devise a multimodal cargo transportation network that enables goods to be efficiently conveyed within a region. This network was developed using the natural resources available in the area. The proposed network aims at stimulating regional economic growth and development based on the Growth and Development Poles Theory and Graph Theory, which are both commonly used in network transportation studies. As a result, three networks were devised. Each network describes a different scenario – status quo, government investment in transportation infrastructure and a strategic one. Furthermore, these networks were devised and analyzed regarding their operational transport costs and spatial configuration.},

However, most air travel demand models attempt to predict aggregate demand for air travel and do not consider differences in the use of air travel across different segments of the population or how changes in economic factors or the way in which air service is provided affect different types of air trip differently. The paper addresses the need for a more disaggregate approach to understanding how travel propensity varies across different segments of the population or how the characteristics of air travelers vary across different markets and examines the potential role of air passenger surveys in meeting this need. The paper reviews the factors that may inlluence air travel propensity, describes the information on air traveler characteristics that is typically collected in air passenger surveys, and presents an analysis of the variation in air travel propensity with household income and composition, on the basis of data from a recent air passenger survey performed in the San Francisco Bay Area in California.

abstract = {The air transportation system enables economic growth and provides significant social benefits. Future increases and volatility in oil prices, as well as climate change policies, are likely to increase the effective cost of fuel. We investigate the expected impacts of higher fuel costs on the U.S. domestic air transportation system and discuss policy options to reduce negative economic and social effects. The 2004-08 fuel price surge is used as a historical case study. A stochastic simulation model is developed using price elasticity of demand assumptions and flight leg fuel burn estimates to understand the impacts of higher fuel costs. It was found that a 50{\%} increase in fuel prices is expected to result in a 12{\%} reduction in ASMs if all cost increases pass through to passengers. System revenues are expected to decrease marginally for fuel price increases up to 50{\%}, but higher increases may result in significant revenue reductions. Small airports are expected to experience relatively larger decreases and greater volatility in traffic. Older aircraft, flying sectors significantly below their optimal fuel efficiency range, are expected to experience the greatest reductions in capacity. An airline case study demonstrates that a regional carrier may be less sensitive to increased fuel prices than other business models. Policy options to maintain small community access, to manage airport traffic volatility, and to improve fleet fuel efficiency are discussed. To transition the U.S. air transportation system to higher fuel costs, stakeholder action will be required.},

abstract = {With the deployment Automatic Vehicle Location systems to monitor transit vehicles (and other fleet vehicles), there have been several efforts in recent years that seek to leverage these data to also obtain arterial travel times for the private vehicle population. The fleet vehicle data capture the traffic conditions, but they also capture behavior unique to the fleet, e.g., servicing passengers at a bus stop. There are several strategies used in conventional practice to eliminate the biases that occur in the vicinity of the bus stop. While investigating the benefits of using a perception sensor to identify ambient traffic conditions around the bus and correct for transit operations, the present work revealed that even a perfect correction for local conditions resulted in large deviation between the travel time measured from the bus and the actual travel time experienced by the surrounding private vehicles. This research uncovered a fundamental issue affecting almost all systems that use buses as arterial travel time probes: the fact that transit operations inevitably pull the bus out of the traffic signal pro-gression no matter what corrections are made locally at the bus stop. The impact at subsequent traffic signals far downstream of a bus stop can be much larger than the local effects at the bus stop itself. This point is an important finding for any system that seeks to use transit vehicle probes to estimate the private vehicle travel times. To date the literature has made little consideration of the signal progression biases relative to the private vehicles that occur far beyond the bus stop. Finally, though the focus the present work is buses, the basic findings should apply to other fleets used as travel time probes as well if the given fleet behavior differs from the private automobiles.

Once the simulation model had been verified and validated, 16 different scenarios were tested. On analyzing the results and aggregating the variables " waiting time " and " available space, " it was possible to observe that the service index offered in the baggage claim area is classified as bad if the carousel perimeter is small and if the flight allocation interval at this carousel is short, even if the waiting time is within the limit acceptable to IATA -International Air Transport Association. In addition, using the Linear Regression method, it was noted that the variables that have most influence on baggage claim waiting time are the time it takes passengers to get to the baggage claim area after the arrival of the aircraft at the airport and the time it takes baggage to get to the carousels after the arrival of the aircraft at the airport.},

Primary and secondary data has been collected for the planning of PRT. The base year trips and logit model outputs have been used for the travel demand estimation. Different international and Indian case studies have been reviewed to understand the operations and costs associated with PRT systems. A detailed financial analysis has been carried out for the formulation of benchmarks.

This dynamic model for benchmarking of PRT systems has been developed using Visual Basic scripting overlay on a standard financial analysis model. The Model works on the inputs of Demand, Operational and Financial Parameters. Each of the seventeen input factors can be tweaked using slider bars in the model to see how a change in any of the variables will impact the financial feasibility of the project.

abstract = {Classified vehicle counts are a critical measure for forecasting the health of the roadway infrastructure and for planning future improvements to the transportation network. Balancing the cost of data collection with the fidelity of the measurements, length-based vehicle classification is one of the most common techniques used to collect classified vehicle counts. Typically the length-based vehicle classification process uses a pair of detectors to measure effective vehicle length. While the calculation is simple and seems well defined, this paper demonstrates that small changes in the calculations can lead to large differences in performance during challenging conditions. In particular, most conventional calculations assume that acceleration can be ignored, which simply is not the case in congested traffic. As a result of this fact, many operating agencies are reluctant to deploy classification stations on roadways where traffic is frequently congested. This paper examines seven different variations of this vehicle length calculation and highlights two of these approaches that work well in extreme conditions on freeways for speeds down to 15 mph. This range should be sufficient for most applications. Then using empirically collected data we find that the extreme events were uncommon and even the conventional method did quite well in stop-and-go traffic, though the key to success is the use of well-tuned detectors},

abstract = {This paper explores several commonly overlooked factors affecting empirical fundamental relationships that are commonly used to relate the traffic state parameters: speed, flow, and concentration. Most of these factors are conceptually simple, but collectively they result in unexpectedly large, nonlinear distortions of the empirical traffic state measurements. In some cases the impacts are known but are underappreciated, for example, passenger car equivalents and measurement errors arising from sampling artifacts. In other cases the impacts have not been recognized in the literature; for example, jam occupancy should be about 80{\%}. The paper also discusses often-overlooked effects of an inhomogeneous vehicle fleet and nonstationary traffic, both of which can add considerable noise to empirical measurements of the traffic state. As a result of these distortions, on a freeway more than half the physical distance along the queued regime of the fundamental relationship in the flow–density plane (and flow–occupancy plane) results from speeds below 10 mph. This outcome inadvertently gives greater weight to the low-speed measurements because they are spread over a large physical region of the plane, while the higher-speed measurements are compressed into a narrow sliver. However, as the paper illustrates, the low-speed samples are subject to the largest measurement errors, are the least likely to come from stationary conditions, and often violate the assumptions used to measure the traffic state. Aggregated low-speed data from conventional vehicle detectors should be discounted or possibly discarded when an empirical fundamental relationship is constructed.},

The main objective of this article is to compare and analyze the use of ordered and unordered mechanisms (such as the multinomial logit model) and consequently to select the appropriate model. To achieve this objective, urban segment data from Porto, Portugal, for a 5-year period were used. The ordered and the multinomial models were applied to estimate the parameters and marginal effects, considering three responses to reflect degrees of hazard (low, medium, and high). To compare and select the best model, statistical tests were conducted, and performance measures were obtained. Although similar results were obtained, the adjusted likelihood ratio test showed that the multinomial model was preferred. Moreover, to illustrate and compare a safety assessment using both models, the probability of each hazard level occurring was computed for two urban segments and hypothetical planned scenarios were defined. It was interesting to note that despite the slight apparent differences between the two models, great differences were found in the category probability model results, proving the importance of model structure selection. {\textcopyright} 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.},

abstract = {This paper presents an overview of mobility performance measures, descriptions of the Florida Department of Transportation's (FDOT) reported mobility performance measures, as well as the authors' perspectives on their usefulness and lessons learned. FDOT has taken a strong position supporting performance based programs. As such, FDOT has an extensive performance measures program covering all aspects of transportation conditions in Florida and FDOT achievements. Since the movement of people and goods is at the heart of all transportation agencies' efforts, mobility performance measures are the key to transportation performance based processes. To adequately address mobility, its four dimensions must be addressed: quantity of travel, quality of service, accessibility, and capacity utilization. Furthermore, multiple performance measures within those four dimensions of mobility need to be developed and used to adequately describe mobility at the national, state and local levels. FDOT's 15 primary mobility performance measures are presented and their calculation is explained. The authors and FDOT have been tracking and reporting on most of FDOT's 15 performance measures for over ten years. The paper includes the authors' perspectives on management's and operating units' use of the performance measures, administrative requirements for performance measures, and a look to the future of mobility performance measures. Further discussion is placed on the quality of service measures, delay, travel time reliability and Level of Service (LOS).},

abstract = {The simulation of local signal controllers has become increasingly sophisticated in recent years, in parallel to improving integration of adaptive systems into simulation. This paper describes and demonstrates an emerging methodology for evaluating adaptive signal control that is termed " system-in-the-loop " simulation. This methodology extends existing software-in-the-loop simulation by linking virtualized traffic controllers with real-world adaptive control systems. An analysis methodology is additionally proposed that fuses simulated probe vehicle data with high-resolution controller event data. This data fusion allows traditional simulation performance measures such as delay to be enhanced with operational performance measures that characterize quality of progression and capacity utilization. This methodology allows adaptive control performance to be characterized not only in terms of overall impact on traveler delay, but also described in terms that are meaningful for improvement of control schemes. An example case study is presented in which the ACS-Lite adaptive system is tested on a 19-intersection system in Morgantown, West Virginia under a special event scenario. Free/fully-actuated control is compared against traditional time-of-day and traffic responsive control both with and without the use of the adaptive control system ACS-Lite. Overall delay results are presented and contrasted with more detailed analysis of event-based performance measures at a single intersection and on a network-wide basis.},

abstract = {This paper presents a scalable methodology for automatically measuring platoon characteristics on links between signalized intersections. This methodology estimates the Robertson dispersion model parameters that characterize platoon travel time and platoon distribution along a link. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistical test was used to assess how well the model parameters characterize the platoon arrivals measured by the high-resolution event data. The methodology was tested on a corridor of nine intersections containing eighteen coordinated links using data collected over a three-week period. Very consistent results were obtained for link travel times, however in many cases the observed link travel times were faster or slower than the posted speed. The distributions of the dispersion parameter show considerable variation across the analysis period as well as across the system. The test corridor presents an interesting situation where shorter links experience greater dispersion than longer ones. The results suggest that platoon dispersion is more sensitive to driver behavior characteristics related to roadside environment than to distance traveled along a street. The methodology could be easily integrated into modern control systems that log controller event data to self-calibrate adaptive control strategies, help engineers prioritize links for coordination, and provide guidance on design parameters.},

All the models 10 confirmed the importance of Population and Service Quantity to urban public transit usage. 11 The elasticities of the variables for corresponding factors derived from the best regressed 12 equations have finally indicated that population in the urban area (0.35) as well as the number 13 of bus vehicles in service (0.40) contributes most to the usage of public transit, followed by 14 GDP (0.17) and annual disposable income per capita (0.12). The city specific difference of 15 public transit usage is also confirmed via the discovery that the coefficients of city specific 16 dummies varies.

In 3 Europe, for-profit franchises have been awarded, but the privatization of US transit and 4 rail services has become a politicized and controversial issue. One avenue that has not 5 been explored is " nonprofitization " – turning over government services not to for-profit 6 entities but to non-profit entities. This approach has been used extensively in the US in 7 other fields, such as low-income housing and health care. The paper explores whether 8 nonprofitization would be feasible for transit by comparing aspects of the US nonprofit 9 sector to transit, and finds that there are examples of nonprofits currently dealing with 10 operations of a similar scope, intensity, and financial character. It assesses three potential 11 benefits from nonprofit status --freedom from political control, a mission-oriented focus, 12 and potential funding from donations – and finds they are credible. The paper ends by 13 looking at how nonprofitization has taken place in other sectors and how it might occur at 14 an existing transit operation, and concludes that commuter rail is particularly appropriate 15 for nonprofitization. Overall, the paper concludes that nonprofitization is feasible in the 16 transit sector in the United States.},

abstract = {A non-intrusive method for periodically recording the location and mass of an in-service heavy vehicle using on-board systems was devised, tested and improved. The method was deployed on commercially operating buses in Victoria, Australia, for a period of 12 months. The purpose was to gain insight into the typical ranges of in-service front and rear axle loads as they varied 5 throughout the day, and to test the appropriateness of existing legal axle load limits relative to actual daily loading. While traditional infrastructure-based Weigh-In-Motion systems collect vehicle weight data for many different anonymous vehicles at a fixed point on a transport network, for this purpose it was desirable to collect vehicle weight data for a small number of specific vehicles at any time during their travel, wherever they may have gone on the transport 10 network. This necessitated the use of a vehicle-based system. A bus is an interesting subject for this method of data collection because its mass can change frequently during a journey and is often unknown. On-board electronic weighing systems are designed to accurately indicate static weight only under controlled conditions. Application of such a system to a commercially operating vehicle at any time during travel presented measurement accuracy challenges that were 15 overcome during this project through the use of basic data processing algorithms to remove unwanted variations and spikes in the data. The end result was a procedure of sufficient accuracy to enable a policy decision to be made about the regulation of bus mass in Victoria. INTRODUCTION 20 The Roads Corporation of Victoria ('VicRoads') wished to conduct a field survey of the static laden weight of two-axle buses while in service. One of the objectives of the survey was to determine if instances of high mass occurred—and if so, where, when, how high and for how long—for each bus involved in the survey. This required weight to be determined at frequent intervals, because the number of passengers on a bus often varies during a journey and 25 sometimes a bus may be at a high load for only a short period of time. The survey was to use suspension airbag pressure transducer-based on-board Electronic Weighing Systems (EWS) and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to achieve this objective, as this was the most cost-effective way of taking measurements at frequent intervals and identifiable locations over an extended period of time without disruption to bus services. 30 VicRoads engaged a heavy vehicle tracking company (Transtech Driven) to equip the vehicles with the required EWS, GPS, data logging and communications equipment and to supply the logged data to VicRoads. VicRoads engaged Advantia Transport Consulting to conduct data processing and analysis and to report back to VicRoads. Manufacturers of airbag pressure transducer-based on-board EWS claim reasonably 35 accurate measurement of static laden weight (to within 250 kg) only when the vehicle is stationary on a flat and level surface (such as in a warehouse) with the brakes released. Without such conditions the EWS may be adversely affected by abnormal airbag pressures due to the vehicle dynamics, the attitude of the vehicle and the effects of braking on suspension reaction forces. In order to overcome these problems for the survey, EWS measurements were averaged 40 in the hardware as described later. This, however, did not remove all of the measurement errors. This paper describes a post-processing method that was developed to obtain results that were sufficiently accurate for the purpose of the project, which was to enable a policy decision to be made about how bus mass should be regulated in Victoria. Passenger-level measurement accuracy was not required. 45 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {The growth in cell phone-only households represents a challenge for the collection of survey data. Cell phone-only households have distinct sociodemographic characteristics, which may result in different travel behavior. To explore those differences, as well as to investigate the impact of including a cell phone component in active transportation research, a representative sample of New Jersey households was surveyed with a random digit dial survey that included 1,200 completed interviews (800 based on a statewide landline sample, 400 from a landline oversample of Jersey City) and 311 statewide cell phone interviews, of which 80 were cell phone-only respondents. The survey explored walking behavior and perceived characteristics of the pedestrian environment. Sociodemographic characteristics, the frequency of walking, and home location characteristics were compared with chisquare tests of significance between sample pairs as well as multivariate analysis (ordered probit). Cell phone-only respondents were typically younger and poorer, with a greater proportion of renters, carless households, and minorities. It was found that cell phone-only household members walked more frequently, but this finding was because of their distinct sociodemographic characteristics, not their cell phone use per se. The implication for any analysis of rates or trends in walking (and probably other travel behavior) is that cell phone-only households must be included through a cell phone sample supplementing a landline sample. However, in the absence of a cell phone supplement, multivariate analysis of the correlates of walking may not be overly biased if sociodemographics relevant to cell phone-only respondents are collected and included in the analysis.},

abstract = {This paper presents the findings of a study which investigates changes in pedestrian crossing speed behavior following the implementation of a pedestrian scramble phase. The aim is to improve the understanding of pedestrian behavior at scramble phase signalized crossings. Automated video analysis using computer vision techniques are used in this study to extract pedestrian trajectories from video data and to measure crossing speed. The use of computer vision techniques for measuring pedestrian walking speed has several advantages over traditional manual observations. These advantages include: capturing the natural movement of pedestrians and minimizing the risk of disturbing the behavior of observed subjects, the richness of the data that can be extracted, the ability to capture microscopic changes in position and speed, and the relatively higher accuracy and consistency. The study uses video data collected for the evaluation of a scramble phase treatment in Oakland, California. The results of the study show that the average pedestrian crossing speed is generally higher after the implementation of scramble phase. This increase took place for pedestrians crossing individually or in groups. Within the scramble phase, the average crossing speed is higher for diagonal crossing compared to conventional (side crosswalk) crossing. Results also show that the average pedestrian crossing speed is lower for pedestrians who start crossing during the Walk interval compared to those who start during Flash Don't Walk or Don't Walk intervals. It is also shown that pedestrians, in general, have slightly higher walking speeds through the first half of the crosswalk and slow down as they approach the end of the crosswalk.},

abstract = {Proponents of active transportation increasingly recognize that attitudes and perceptions can help or hinder efforts to promote walking and biking.  Accordingly, a growing body of research examines the effects of attitudes on behavior.  Much of this research has treated attitudes as exogenous.  However, attitudes, perception, and behavior exist in a reciprocal relationship.  This article examines the feedback loop between behavior and perceptions by modeling the perceptions of California residents about barriers to walking more frequently as a function of travel behavior. Specifically, the authors examined variation in barriers across work commute modes and transit use through simple proportions and logit models. The results indicate a significant association between travel behavior and perceptions.  In particular, transit usage is associated with higher levels of concern about the safety of walking.  The effect is stronger among transit-dependent respondents than among transit riders who have access to an automobile.   Because of the overwhelming prevalence of walking as an access and egress mode for transit, these results suggest that walking for transportation may also be associated with an increased likelihood of perceiving safety factors as a barrier to walking.},

In particular, traffic can be routed so that the bottlenecks are not oversaturated. The macroscopic fundamental diagram provides a relationship between the number of vehicles and network performance. Traffic control can be applied on this level to overcome the computational complexity of networkwide control with traditional control levels of links or vehicles. The main questions are ( a ) how effective traffic control is with aggregate variables compared with full information and ( b ) whether the shape of the macroscopic fundamental diagram changes under traffic control. A grid network with periodic boundary conditions is used as an example and is split into several subnetworks. The following routing strategies are compared: the shortest paths in distance and time (dynamic due to congestion) and approximations of the path shortest in time but calculated with only variables aggregated for a subnetwork and of the path shortest in time but calculated with only subnetwork accumulation. For the third and fourth routing strategies, only information aggregated over the subnetwork is used. The results show improved traffic flow with detailed information. Effective control is also possible by using aggregated information, but only with the right choice of a subnetwork macroscopic fundamental diagram. Furthermore, when detailed information is used to optimize—and therefore in a subnetwork—the macroscopic fundamental diagram changes.},

The gas tax is not only stagnant but also depreciating in value because of inflation. Thus, the money needed to maintain the infrastructure and improve road- ways is not being adequately generated. One proposed alternative to the gas tax is the creation of a fee for vehicle miles traveled (VMT), with equity being a crucial issue. This research used Texas data from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey to consider the equity impacts of four VMT-fee scenarios. Data were filtered and weighted to reflect results rep- resentative of Texas vehicle-owning households in 2008. Each scenario was run both statically and dynamically under the assumption that the VMT fee would replace the state gas tax. On the basis of quantitative measures, the vertical equity of all proposed VMT-fee scenarios and that of the current state gas tax were similar. In terms of horizontal equity, Scenario 4 was designed to be inherently horizontally equitable: charg- ing different rates for travel on urban roadways and rural roadways corresponding to funding needs associated with that roadway type. Scenario 3, which favored fuel-efficient vehicles, was found to be the least horizontally equitable and caused rural households to contribute the highest percentage of revenue of all scenarios considered. All other scenarios were found to be more horizontally equitable than the current state gas tax. The},

Despite research 6 evidence that crossover provision is important in managing rail disruption there is little guidance in the 7 research literature about how this can be achieved and what the relative costs and benefits of providing 8 crossovers are. 9 Theoretical modelling evaluated passenger and operator impacts of alternative crossover plans for 10 a case study of unplanned service disruptions on a suburban rail line in Melbourne, Australia. Results show 11 that an additional crossover reduced user rail disruption costs by between 78{\%} and 96{\%} whilst bus hire 12 costs were reduced by between 63{\%} and 93{\%}. Results suggest that only a few rail disruptions annually 13 make the provision of track crossovers financially viable based on savings in rail replacement bus service 14 costs. Research found that crossovers located as close as possible to major disruption locations provide the 15 highest users and operator benefits. Sensitivity tests show that even with substantially lower ridership and 16 with lower frequency of disruption, the addition of crossovers was financially positive and generated 17 substantial user benefits. All highlighted results are in respect to the one suburban rail line under analysis. 18 Overall it would appear that providing additional track crossovers is a highly positive means of 19 reducing costs and improving services and presents a rare 'win-win' solution for railway management.

The paper is roughly divided into three sections, one outlining the LCM's ability to quantify forces between passive and aggressive drivers on a microscopic level, one describing the LCM's ability to measure aggressiveness of platoons of drivers, and the last explaining the meaning of the model's derivative.

However, full network coverage with point sensors requires a significant initial capital investment and ongoing maintenance expenditures. Probe-based sensors can cover an extensive roadway network at a much lower cost because roadway-based field equipment is not required. Decisions regarding the relative level of point sensor- versus probe-based deployment for traffic monitoring involve evaluating the trade-off between the value of comprehensive detection versus total system costs. An essential step in evaluating this trade-off involves directly comparing collocated point sensor and probe vehicle systems to understand how the derived traffic stream measures from the two approaches differ. This study compared 5-min speeds from microwave radar and acoustic sensors with link speeds from Global Positioning System (GPS) probes for both directions at five freeway loca...},

abstract = {Tablet computers are revolutionizing many aspects of society. An important question is whether they could be used effectively to collect data for travel surveys. There are two aspects to this question: first, do tablet computers allow researchers improve the type and quality of data they collect; and, second, are tablet computers usable by participants. To answer these questions, the researchers tested the usability of tablet computers in a travel survey completed in Austria during spring 2011. As part of the travel survey participants were asked about their experience using the tablet to complete the survey. The results showed that tablet computers provided many advantages to the survey managers. They were able to monitor survey progress in real time, thus helping identify groups to survey. They were able to provide questions tailored specifically for the survey participant. They were able to ensure that data was accurately recorded. The results also showed that participants in general found the tablets to be very usable and that they had a positive motivational factor in the participant's decision whether to complete the travel survey. The results of the feedback survey, which is based on a representative random sample, show the advantages of tablet technology in terms of user-friendliness, interaction and motivation. The objective of this paper is to present an overview of possibilities, limits and advantages of tablets with touch-screen technology for travel surveys.},

Sihvola, Jokinen and Sulonen 1 ABSTRACT We present the results of in-depth focus-group interviews on user needs for urban car travel in the Helsinki metropolitan area, Finland. In particular, we concentrated on finding the instrumental motives for the user needs. The sample included various segments of urban travelers, who described their three most typical trip types, which guided the discussion into three situations: 1) a car is seen as the only possible mode option; 2) a car is seen as the best mode option; and 3) there are downsides to using a car. The transcript of the focus groups was encoded and grouped to reveal attribute and attitude patterns. On the basis of the patterns, we formulated the user-needs description. We also propose a new kind of urban mass demand responsive transport (DRT) concept and analyze non-empirically how it could affect urban travel. Two significant motives for car use were insufficient public transport connections and the need for temporal flexibility. The analysis indicates that the main attributes of the detected user needs can be responded to with the mass DRT service. Still, some attributes support car use, but as a counterbalance to them there are some perceived downsides to car use. The results of this paper argue for serious consideration to applying the proposed mass DRT concept in urban areas.},

The study also proposed a methodology for estimating latent bicycle trips, that is, the number of car trips that could be made by bike. When a criterion of travel range based on age cohorts and genders was applied, it appeared that about 50.7{\{}{\%}{\}} To of car trips would be made by bike. When more restrictive criteria were used (consideration of trip chains, shopping), it appeared that 18.2{\{}{\%}{\}} of car trips would be made by bike.},

abstract = {VISSIM is one of the popular tools to model roundabouts in the United States. Because of its flexibility in modeling driver behavior and in creating accurate roadway geometry, VISSIM is being increasingly used as part of roundabout operational analysis. Like any other microsimulation tool, accuracy of the traffic performance measured in VISSIM is largely dependent on how well it is calibrated. With varying familiarity of roundabouts among US communities, it is imperative to calibrate VISSIM to local conditions. However, lack of field data for US roundabouts and the complexity in VISSIM's underlying algorithms have made VISSIM calibration a challenging task. Additionally, limited guidance from previous research is available to assist practitioners to select appropriate VISSIM parameters for capacity-based calibration. This paper evaluated the impact of various VISSIM parameters on the simulated roundabout capacity, and subsequently developed three capacity-based calibration strategies. A case study was established based on a single-lane roundabout in Carmel, Indiana. The calibration strategies were applied to adjust the simulated roundabout capacity to match two target capacity models. Although the calibrated values are not " transferable " , the general calibration process and the calibration strategies are expected to be applicable to other single-lane roundabouts.},

An atmospheric propulsion system (APS) has 11 the potential to meet the high-speed and environmental demands of inter-city passenger rail by using 12 differential air pressure created by stationary power systems to move along an elevated guideway. 13 The primary focus of the technology is the coupling of energy from a free piston within a large 14 diameter pneumatic tube to the transportation unit mounted on steel rails above the tube. The 15 technology does not depend on traction for propulsion and runs on electricity without using a 16 catenary system. The absence of on-board fuel and traction motors makes it relatively light-weight. 17 Due to stored energy capability in the power tube, rapid acceleration is accomplished without high 18 energy spikes. The system is projected to operate at speeds in excess of 200 m.p.h. (322 km/h) and 19 climb grades as steep as 10{\%}. Pilot program testing to 1/6 scale has shown the system is capable of 20 transporting people for high-speed inter-city travel with technology that is energy efficient and 21 flexible enough to integrate into existing transportation corridors and varied terrain world-wide.

In the context of iBus, an automatic vehicle location and control system deployed on all 8,400 buses operated by London Bus Services Limited (London Buses), tests demonstrated that the solution based on the Global Positioning System (GPS) provides location accuracy within 10 to 12 m 95{\%} of the time; this timing is sufficient to support operational needs. To meet that level of location accuracy, the system must operate with a high degree of availability and accuracy on all vehicles. The challenge is to install, maintain, and repair vehicles so that they can operate at the required levels of performance under harsh operating conditions. Buses have many components-including the odometer, gyrocompass, aerials, WiFi, and power units-that can fail. This paper presents three approaches that London Buses uses to identify vehicles that have faulty hardware. One technique has also proved to be beneficial in testing new navigation software releases and in identifying design and parameterization problems that affect the quality of the navigation solution. The results will interest those involved with testing, maintenance, and repair of GPS-based vehicle fleets.

Dynamic Airspace Configuration (DAC) 15 is a new paradigm for airspace that aims at 16 migrating from a rigid airspace structure to a more 17 flexible airspace. The United States National 18 Airspace System (NAS) is a vast resource.

abstract = {U.S. airports face significant congestion problems, particularly those in major metropolitan areas with continued population and economic growth (1). In addition to growth in air travel demand, contributing to airport congestion are frequent, short-haul flights on routes of less than 500 miles (2). The potential for high-speed rail (HSR) to serve as a substitute for aviation on these short-haul routes is well documented; however there is a need to explore how rail can also serve in a complementary mode, relieving congestion at airports by providing short-haul services in support of longer haul airline services (3). The primary objective of this research project is to examine the role of cooperation between high-speed rail (HSR) and aviation in order to improve the aviation system planning process. This study addresses the following key questions: • How have airports, airlines, and rail operators cooperated to enable airport-HSR connectivity? • What are the service characteristics of airport-HSR connectivity? • What are the unique challenges associated with airport-HSR connectivity? • How has air transportation demand evolved in the presence of airport-HSR connectivity? LITERATURE REVIEW It is suggested that the expansion of high-speed rail lines in Europe has resulted in substantial shifts in mode share from aviation for intercity passenger transport in this region. These adjustments in travel behavior have significant implications for infrastructure investment decisions and the environmental footprint of the transportation sector. Both airports and high-speed rail require costly infrastructure that, once built, is typically utilized over long time scales (4). Given the interrelationship between demand for aviation and high-speed rail, increasing our understanding of the factors that shape intercity travel demand for these two modes is critical for long-range transportation system planning. In the past decade, several studies have emerged that analyze the substitution of high-speed rail for air transportation, particularly in Europe and Asia (5,6). The majority of these studies are focused on mode choice between two major cities, utilizing choice modeling methods to examine revealed preference (RP) and/or stated preference (SP) data. A few studies documenting air transportation and HSR in France, Spain, and Japan conclude that it is very difficult for air transportation to compete effectively in short-haul markets of 500 kilometers or less (5,7). Comparative studies based on European high-speed rail development have also examined historical market share and general trends in air transportation and high-speed rail demand. There is little existing documentation detailing the history behind how airport, airline and rail operator partnerships have been formed to enable airport-HSR connectivity. In addition, although there is much speculation about how air-rail connectivity impacts air traffic demand, there is little existing empirical analysis of systemwide air traffic trends where airport-HSR integration exists. This study will increase our understanding of how airport-rail partnerships are formed, how they are implemented, and how they impact broader aviation system demand. METHODOLOGY This research project utilized a multiple-case design methodology to examine aviation-rail cooperation in Europe. Data collection and analysis focuses on the country as the primary unit of analysis, with a particular focus on the nation's major airport. Germany/ Frankfurt Main Airport and France/ Paris Charles de Gaulle were selected as the primary cases for this research because they are the two primary airports in existence that include integrated high-speed rail and passenger air service.},

abstract = {1 This paper is focused on investigating calibration issues of the Volume-Delay Functions (VDFs) for the 2 traffic assignment step within Travel Demand Models (TDMs). VDFs, such as the Bureau of Public 3 Roads (BPR) function, have parameters that allow the analyst to calibrate the model to local conditions. 4 Finding the right parameters for a given TDM is challenging and there is no established guidance on how 5 to determine them. Overall, two potential approaches can be taken: calibration based on link travel 6 time/speed data or calibration based on link counts or observed flows over the network. It is shown that 7 calibration based on link travel time/speed yields varying results depending on the congestion level; and 8 consequently does not result in a consistent set of optimal VDF parameters for all traffic conditions. It is 9 also shown that calibrating VDFs for link travel times (in macroscopic static TDMs) does not necessarily 10 result in accurate route choice or distribution of trips over the network. A unique aspect of this research is 11 the development of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) that can provide optimal parameters for VDFs. 12 Specifically, for the calibration based on link counts, a GA is developed to search for the optimal set of 13 VDF parameters while minimizing the difference between model link volumes and link counts from the 14 field – measured in terms of root mean square error (RMSE). The GA-based calibration method is 15 implemented on three different TDMs from Virginia. It is shown that the GA is an effective tool for 16 calibrating VDFs as the algorithm produces results that have better RMSE values than those produced by 17 the VDFs in current practice. The analyses are performed for three different common VDFs (i.e., BPR, 18 Conical, and Akcelik) to investigate how these functions perform in terms of RMSE. For the three TDMs 19 in Virginia, it is found that BPR function produced the best RMSEs. The GA algorithm developed in this 20 study can be used as a tool to obtain optimal parameters for VDFs. 21},

In 2004 a global benchmarking initiative under CANSO (Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation) was begun with a long range goal to produce a public report of key performance indicators (KPIs) that included the identification of the participating ANSPs. The overall effort was to include many aspects of air navigation including costs, productivity, effectiveness, service quality, delay, safety as well as environmental. Until 2009, the focus had been on developing the cost-effectiveness and performance aspects of benchmarking, and these were now sufficiently mature and in a position to go public. It was decided to publish these key performance indicators as a " leading edge " . This first publication included the indicators for 30 ANSPs that varied both in geography and activity. This paper includes the guiding principles for the benchmarking process, the process used to develop a public document, the implications of going public, as well as key performance indicators highlighted from the document.

abstract = {1 Accurate forecasting of aviation activity is necessary for NAV CANADA since the act 2 that created the Company stipulates that revenues must equal cost commitments related to the 3 provision of air navigation services. Therefore accurate forecasting of revenue is an important 4 early step in determining the cost commitments that can be met in the upcoming fiscal years. 5 Traditional econometric forecasting techniques are long term in nature and do not consider the 6 seasonality of traffic, nor do they provide the required level of detail to the individual month. 7 For these and other reasons it was decided to develop empirical forecasting methods as the 8 primary forecasting approach for the Company. This paper describes the selection and 9 development of the empirical model, based on the Holt-Winters Multiplicative method, for the 10 air traffic that overflies Canadian airspace on routes between North America and Europe. A 11 second part of the modelling process is the application of risk analysis to not only replace current 12 scenario-based methods, but to improve and augment them. The methodology will then be 13 applied to the two other markets, Asia and the Far East and Alaska, with eventual expansion to 14 the Canadian air traffic, though these are not discussed in this paper.},

abstract = {Words = 6423 Tables and Figures = 1 @ 250 Total = 6673 Abstract Congestion pricing in cities is seen as desirable from an economic point of view but difficult politically. A variety of revenue and cost-sharing arrangements have been proposed as ways of creating ballot-box winning coalitions where 'winners' outvote losers from a self-interest point of view. However, these proposals generally ignore the roles of institutions, governmental and otherwise, in the control of revenues raised by pricing. These institutions can confound political alliance schemes that aim to build coalitions favoring congestion tolls. This paper examines the failure of New York City to impose a congestion pricing cordon, even though there was significant US Federal government funding available as an inducement to pass it. The role of institutional arrangements turned out to play a key role in this failure, with lessons for the political viability of other proposed schemes.},

abstract = {Probe data are emerging as an important source for characterizing transportation systems. Travel time distributions have traditionally been characterized by the mean and standard deviation. These statistics work well to characterize uncongested freeway systems, which have travel time distributions that are approximately normal. When congested conditions or interrupted-flow facilities are encountered, the travel time distributions become more complex. Recently some additional travel time reliability indexes have been developed to quantify these travel time distribution characteristics. This study develops mathematical techniques for determining the sample size required for estimating the underlying travel time distributions that can be used for assessing changes in travel time distributions associated with operational changes of traffic signal controller offsets. The example provided shows that while gross changes in offsets require approximately 7 probe vehicle samples per study interval, subtle changes in offsets require approximately 80 probe vehicle data samples per study interval. Although these guidelines were developed for evaluating offset changes, the mathematical framework can be applied for evaluating the impact of other parameters, such as split times and cycle lengths. Further research on applying these mathematical techniques to a broader cross section of traffic conditions is warranted to assess their transferability to oversaturated conditions and freeways.},

abstract = {1 Transportation projects in major metropolitan regions can vary widely in the types of benefits they 2 provide and in the scales of those benefits. Travel forecasting models and related procedures can provide 3 reasonable estimates of those benefits and many of the benefits can be distilled into equivalent dollar 4 benefits using consumer surplus or other valuation approaches. In theory, those methods could be used to 5 prioritize projects for funding consideration. However, simply choosing projects that provide the greatest 6 net economic benefits may not result in a mix of projects that most effectively accomplishes broad 7 regional goals. This paper describes an approach to project prioritization that was developed to support 8 stakeholder-based weighting of multiple goals and, for each goal, multiple measures. The approach uses 9 the analytic hierarchy approach to develop weights for each goal and a conjoint-based method to estimate 10 stakeholder weights for each measure. 11 The approach was applied as part of the Puget Sound Regional Council's Transportation 2040 process 12 and achieves the goals in VISION 2040—the long range land use plan. Weighting exercises were 13 conducted with two stakeholder groups and the results were applied to a set of proposed ferry, rail, 14 highway and local road projects. This paper describes the details of this case study and provides 15 observations and conclusions from the work. The principal findings of the experiment were that 16 statistically robust modeling conducted in real-time during planning committee meetings can improve the 17 transparency, equity, and collaboration of the project prioritization process.},

Two types of revenue guarantee programs are formulated: a payment-based annual revenue guarantee program and a period-extension-based cumulative revenue guarantee program. Monte Carlo simulation is used to model the real option approach. This method is applied to a toll road project in the Philippines wherein the expected payoffs of the government and the concessionaire are simulated over an evaluation period that includes the concession period. The condition under which the expected government return in one program is equal to that in the other program is shown. These programs are then evaluated by incorporating a project risk factor into the project return. The results show that for the analyzed project the cumulative revenue guarantee program is preferred to the annual revenue guarantee program. However, the optimal solution depends on the government's return-risk preference.},

abstract = {1 The realization of traffic management on a network level is not only theoretically complex, but also 2 practically challenging, because of the need to take the traffic management policy of the road authorities 3 into account. In the Netherlands this policy harmonizes the interests of involved stakeholders by means of a 4 common vision upon the network functioning, expressed in road priorities and corresponding desired service 5 levels. Subsequently, network states that reflect the policy objectives need to be realized in a systematic and 6 comprehensible way. 7 This paper presents a predictive route guidance approach that is able to operationalize the formulated 8 policy in practice. This is achieved by degrading and restoring target service levels of routes according to 9 their difference in priority with respect to the network performance. The control approach consists of a 10 finite-state machine that determines the desired service levels based on predicted traffic conditions. These 11 service levels are used in a feedback controller as setpoints for the desired travel times, resulting in the 12 corresponding output signal of a Variable Message Sign. 13 By means of a test case, the finite-state machine is compared to an optimal (Model Predictive 14 Control-based) route guidance approach that realizes system optimal conditions and to a feedback controller 15 that realizes user equilibrium conditions. The evaluation results show that the finite-state machine is able to 16 prevent or limit the effects of phenomena that cause decreased network production in a comprehensible and 17 efficient way, while taking the interests of the road user into account. 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The placement of a VMS can greatly influence its effectiveness, making sign location choice a problem of particular interest. The objective of this study was to develop a methodology for determining an appropriate spacing between VMS and off-ramps on freeways to allow safe driving maneuvers. We used a driving simulator to evaluate how drivers exit at an off-ramp when presented with route detour information from various VMS locations. We then applied binary logistic regression and factor analysis to develop a statistical model that predicts the safety of these maneuvers. Using this model, we suggest a method to estimate the appropriate spacing between VMS and off-ramps. The results of this study will be useful to ITS planners and designers in determining optimal VMS placement.},

It can also be easily combined with any microscopic models to propose a bi-level traffic flow representation on networks. This model overhauls the link traffic flow model early proposed by Mahut (2003) by integrating heterogeneous vehicle characteristics and moving bottlenecks treatment. It also introduces a simple node model that (i) generalizes the supply allocation scheme at merges proposed by Daganzo, (ii) naturally respects the FIFO rules at diverges and (iii) accounts for traffic signals timing. This model reproduces at an individual scale the global behavior reproduced by classical macroscopic node models and notably merge ratios.},

Nevertheless, the visual impact of turf tracks is only one of their many advantages, which are going to be presented in this paper. These advantages range from environmental aspects, as reduction of noise and suspended fine particles, "green lung" effect, improvements in rain water management and heat island mitigation, to the decrease of operational and construction costs of the system. On the other hand, this solution has, of course, some inconveniences or additional precautions that must be taken into account to ensure a good performance in the long term, as the need for vegetation maintenance and for rail-environment separation. There are, also, some limitations as their non-drivability for buses and emergency vehicles, the additional problems in case of derailment, and the possible incidences in operation due to irrigation, mowing and to vegetation waste and sand combination. This paper focuses on the explanation of these advantages, inconveniences and limitations, in order to provide a better understanding of the solution and to make the decision of whether to use grass tracks in a new light rail system easier.},

Using data collected 7 from 13 approaches at 7 signalized intersections, the research team evaluated the effects of countdown 8 timers on saturation headways and start-up lost time for both through and protected left-turn movements. 9 It was found that countdown timers have positive, but generally limited impacts on capacity of 10 signalized intersections. Signal countdown timers significantly affect drivers' starting response time and 11 start-up lost time for both protected left-turn and through movements. On average, countdown timers 12 reduced the start-up lost time by 0.6 sec per cycle for protected left-turn movements, and 2.25 sec per 13 cycle for through movements at selected sites. It was also found that signal countdown timers have 14 limited impacts on saturation headways. On average, signal countdown timers resulted in a 0.11 sec 15 higher saturation headway for protected left-turn movements, and a 0.15 sec higher saturation headway 16 for through movements at selected sites. The difference in saturation headways was found to be 17 statistically significant for through movements, but not significant for left-turn movements. The study 18 also looked extensively at the impacts of countdown timers on the compression of discharge headways 19 at the end of each queue. The presence of countdown timers results in headway compressions at the end 20 of each queue. For protected left-turn movements, headway compression usually starts when there are 5 21 sec left in the left-turn green arrow time.

The factors that influenced condemnation cases and contributed to the acquisition duration delay at the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) were identified and then were used to develop a new " Acquisition Agreement Form " process to reduce condemnation cases. This process was tested and validated on an active project that contained 32 parcels with 10 (31{\%}) parcels recommended for condemnation. Using this new process, only one (3{\%}) out of the 10 parcels was condemned and the other 9 parcels (28{\%}) were prevented from condemnation using this new process.

ABSTRACT: 1 In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in investigating the air quality benefits 2 of traffic management strategies in light of challenges associated with global warming and 3 climate change. However, there has not been a systematic effort to study the impact of a 4 specific traffic management strategy on mobile source Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, in 5 particular, carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions. This research is intended to evaluate mobile 6 source CO 2 emissions for assessment of traffic management strategies, in which a Portable 7 Emission Measurement System (PEMS) is used to collect vehicle's real-world emission data, 8 and a Vehicle Specific Power (VSP) based modeling approach is used as the basis for 9 emission estimation. By this approach, three case studies are designed for High Occupancy 10 Vehicle (HOV) lane, traffic signal coordination plan, and Electronic Toll Collection (ETC). 11 In the HOV lane scenario, CO 2 emission factors produced by the test vehicle using HOV lane 12 and the corresponding mixed flow lane are compared. In the evaluation of traffic signal 13 coordination, total CO 2 emissions produced under the existing coordinated signal timing and 14 the emulated non-coordinated signal timing along the same testing route are compared. In 15 the ETC case study, total CO 2 emissions produced by the test vehicle around an ETC station 16 and an MTC station located on the same toll road segment are estimated and compared. 17 The results indicate that HOV lane, well-coordinated signal timing, and ETC are all effective 18 measures to reduce mobile source CO 2 emissions, although the level of effectiveness is 19 different for different strategies. 20 21 Keywords: Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions, Carbon Dioxide (CO 2), Vehicle Specific 22 Power (VSP), Traffic Management, Evaluation Method, Portable Emission Measurement 23 System (PEMS) 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In Section 4I.02 of the newly published Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), standards were specified for the placement of signal heads for traffic control signals at freeway entrance ramps, or ramp meters. For simultaneous operations, i.e. when ramp control signals are operated such that green signal indications are always displayed simultaneously to all of the lanes on the ramp, a minimum of two signal faces per ramp shall face entering traffic. For staggered operations, i.e. the ramp control signal are operated such that green signal indications are not always displayed simultaneously to all of the lanes on the ramp, one signal face shall be provided over the approximate center of each separately-controlled lane. Based on a nation-wide survey, it was realized that the two standards did not fully reflect the state-of-the-practice with respect to the placement of signal heads. The requirements for simultaneous operations are vague, and sometimes erroneous. The requirements for staggered operations are incomplete and may be unreasonable at times. Suggestions were made to revise these two standards to better reflect the current nation-wide practice, and the difference between ramp meters and urban street signals.},

Results from a recently completed National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) study and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Every Day Counts initiative have shown that some State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) have attempted to address this problem by using financial incentives, primarily in the form of reimbursement or cash bonuses; other State DOTs have experimented with and/or Utility Agency/Owners (UAOs) have suggested low-cost or no-cost incentives, such as avoiding utility relocations, acquiring right-of-way for utilities, and others; and all State DOTs have made efforts to coordinate, cooperate, and communicate with UAOs to some extent, and that is the best incentive of all. This paper will discuss some incentives that are being used or may possibly be used to facilitate utility relocations and thereby accelerate project delivery.},

abstract = {For many years, static traffic assignment models have been widely applied in transport planning studies and will continue to be an important tool for strategic policy decisions. As is well known, in the traditional approach, the location of the delays and queues are not predicted correctly, and the resulting travel times do not correspond well with reality. Dynamic models can approach reality much better, but come at a computational cost. In this paper we propose a quasi-dynamic model which inherits most of the computational efficiency of static models, but aims to keep most of the important dynamic features, such as queuing, spillback, and shockwaves. Instead of adjusting the traditional static model or using heuristics, we theoretically derive the model from the dynamic link transmission model, assuming stationary travel demand and instantaneous flow. Furthermore, we present algorithms for solving the model. On a corridor network we illustrate the feasibility and compare it with other approaches, and on a larger network of Amsterdam we discuss the computational efficiency.},

However, the utilization of active modes of transportation 6 (AMT) to and from school can serve as a bulwark against inactivity and the spread of these 7 diseases. In an attempt to study and counteract this growing phenomenon, we distributed over 8 4,700 questionnaires in 92 schools throughout all of Tehran's regions in a random stratified 9 sampling method according to geographical location and gender differences, and received 3,441 10 responses, resulting in a 72{\%} response rate. We were able to separate and identify significant 11 factors which affect each gender's propensity to choose active modes of transportation to and 12 from school. Among females, 45{\%} chose an AMT to school and 52{\%} for return trips home, both 13 of which are higher than males' propensity to choose AMT. Among males, 39{\%} chose an AMT 14 to school and 46{\%} on the way back. Female tolerance in active modes of transportation also 15 proved to be greater than that of males such that with a growth in costly factors such as increases 16 in travel time, economic considerations, such as household car ownership, and tougher 17 geographical topography, females substituted away from AMT less than males.},

abstract = {TOWARD BEST PRACTICES FOR CONDUCTING A MOVES PROJECT-LEVEL 1 ANALYSIS 2 3 ABSTRACT 4 5 Beginning in 2012 EPA will require the use of the MOVES mobile emissions model for 6 conducting a quantitative hot-spot analysis within PM{\#} nonattainment and maintenance areas. A 7 reconstruction or capacity expansion of a congested intersection (LOS D or worse) is an example of 8 a project requiring a MOVES " Project-Level " analysis. 9 A Project-Level analysis requires interfacing a traffic model with MOVES, and MOVES 10 with an air dispersion model such as AERMOD. The linking of different model types and the 11 imminence of their use for compliance purposes creates the need to define analytical Best Practices. 12 A key element of Best Practices for a Project-Level analysis is the definition of links through the 13 modeling chain. Due to the flexibility of defining links in traffic microsimulation models and in 14 MOVES, this analysis suggests that air dispersion considerations should be the determining factors 15 in defining links. 16 The test bed for this analysis is an isolated intersection that was the subject of a CMAQ-17 funded signal optimization project conducted for the New Hampshire Department of Transportation 18 in 2010. A pure signal optimization project without other significant capacity expansions such as 19 lane additions would not likely require a quantitative hot-spot analysis. However, the methods for 20 estimating emissions for a signal optimization project and preparing them for an air dispersion 21 analysis are identical to the methods of a Project-Level analysis. 22 This research into Best Practices for conducting a MOVES Project-Level analysis has 23 generated the following findings: 24 25 1. The flexibility of defining links in microsimulation modeling and in MOVES suggests that 26 air dispersion modeling considerations should determine link definition. 27 2. Greater resolution in link geometry (i.e. shorter links) closer to the intersection center will 28 capture the greater emissions generated at this location. 29 3. If microsimulation models are used to provide traffic activity input into MOVES, the 30 vehicle trajectory outputs of the traffic model can be pre-processed into Operating Mode 31 Distributions for running MOVES. 32 4. Signal optimization can lead to greater emissions within the intersection center, but this 33 increase is offset by emission reductions along the approach links to the intersection. 34 35 Using MOVES, signal optimization is shown to reduce PM 2.5 emissions by approximately 36 6{\%} at the test bed intersection. This is consistent with previous findings, which have shown a range 37 of emissions improvements from signal optimization of 1.5-22.0{\%}. 38 39 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. R. Chamberlin, B. Swanson, E. Talbot, S. Sharma, P. Crouch 3 INTRODUCTION 1 2 An estimated 34{\%} of obligations under the Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) 3 program are for " traffic flow improvements " which include projects such as signal optimization, 4 ramp metering, intersection improvements, and incident management (1). CMAQ program 5 applications require an assessment of a proposed project's emissions reduction benefits. Guidance 6 published for CMAQ states: " State and local transportation and air quality agencies conduct 7 CMAQ-project air quality analyses with different approaches, analytical capabilities, and technical 8 expertise (2). " Thus, the CMAQ guidance acknowledges the variety of approaches and technical 9 sophistication among applicants. 10 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has published guidance for performing 11 " Project-Level " transportation conformity analysis of PM 10 , PM 2.5 , and CO " hot-spots " , sub-12 regional areas where local pollution concentrations might exceed NAAQS standards (3). EPA 13 requires use of the Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES2010a) model to quantify emissions 14 impacts from hot-spots. Using MOVES for a Project Level analysis requires connecting MOVES to 15 a transportation model on the " front end " and to an air dispersion model on the " back end " . 16 On the " front end " the structure of MOVES provides considerable flexibility for connecting 17 to highly detailed traffic microsimulation models. Prior research has shown that MOVES can be 18 connected with traffic microsimulation models in a variety of ways (4,5,6). This work illustrates 19 that traffic operational issues, such as incident management or changing intersection control from a 20 traffic signal to a roundabout, can be modeled in MOVES to determine emissions impacts. 21 While CMAQ projects may not be related to regulated " hot spots " , the flexibility of 22 MOVES for connecting with conventional traffic operational analysis creates the potential to 23 standardize the process of estimating emissions. This potential gives rise to the need for analytical 24 " Best Practices " , specifically: 25 1) What are the best ways for depicting traffic microsimulation link output data for input 26 into MOVES? 27 2) What are the best ways of defining link geometries such that consistency through the 28 modeling chain can be achieved? 29 30 BACKGROUND 31 32 To investigate these questions we have developed a modeling test bed based on recent 33 signal optimization work conducted for the New Hampshire Department of Transportation 34 (NHDOT) under a Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grant (7). The test bed 35 intersection was part of a larger signal optimization project in which peak period signal timing 36 plans were developed for 64 intersections located in the multiple-county ozone non-attainment area 37 in southeastern New Hampshire. Optimized intersection timing plans were developed with an 38 emphasis on reducing intersection-related fuel consumption using the Synchro/SimTraffic{\textregistered} 39 software (8) and were field implemented in 2010 and 2011. Emission reductions using SimTraffic 40 were estimated at 11{\%} from baseline conditions for VOCs and NOx. 41 A number of recent studies have documented air quality improvements from traffic signal 42 optimization. Chien, et al (9) estimated emissions tied to reduced fuel consumption for 19 43 signalized intersections along Route 23 in New Jersey. They estimated an overall reduction in 44 emissions of 22{\%} over all time periods. Peters, et al (10) in their work for the City of Portland (OR) 45 Offices of Sustainable Development and Transportation also estimated a reduction of harmful 46 emissions of 22{\%}. In both projects the traffic engineering software Synchro was used to develop 47 optimized timing plans and estimate emissions reductions. 48 An approach to estimating transportation-related emissions impacts is described in NCHRP 49 25-21, " Predicting the Air Quality Effects of Traffic Flow Improvements " (11). NCHRP 25-21 50 recommended a methodology for predicting the short-and long-term effects of traffic-flow 51 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Before the widening, there were 1.5 -2.0 meter high noise barriers along the motorway. As a part of the widening nearly eighteen kilometers of four meter noise barriers were constructed together with noise reducing road pavements and fa{\c{c}}ade insulation. Noise mapping showed that in the original situation, six thousand three hundred dwellings were exposed to road traffic noise over 55 dB (L Aeq,24h). With the new noise abatement efforts only two thousand two hundred dwellings will be exposed to noise levels over 55 dB. Noise had been a very important issue raised massively by the residents at all the public hearings about the motorway widening project. Therefore, the road administration wanted to know, how the project actually affected the neighbors of the motorway. An investigation on annoyance due to road traffic noise was therefore carried out by the Danish Road Directorate/Danish Road Institute as a pre and post-study in six residential areas covering twelve hundred dwellings. The results showed that there has been an improvement in the perceived noise annoyance. The total percentage of very and extremely annoyed respondents decreased from 37 {\%} to 16 {\%}. The percentage of moderately annoyed was almost constant with 30 {\%} and 27 {\%} respectively. Finally, the total percentage of slightly annoyed and not at all annoyed increased from 33 {\%} to 57 {\%} from the pre to the post-study.},

However, 4 very few of these studies attempted also to analyze and quantify the uncertainty entailed in the calibration process and 5 its impacts on the accuracy and reliability of results. A thorough understanding of the whole calibration problem 6 (against trajectory data), as well as of the mutual effect of the specific problems raised in the field literature, indeed, 7 does not yet exist. 8 In this view, a general methodology to assess a calibration procedure was proposed and applied to the calibration of 9 the Gipps' car-following model. Compact indicators were proposed to evaluate the capability of a calibration setting to 10 find the " known " global solution, in terms of both the accuracy and the robustness as to the variation of the starting 11 conditions of the optimisation algorithm. Then, a graphical inspection method, based on the so called cobweb plots, was 12 proposed to explore the existence and the nature of the local minima found by the algorithms, as well as to give insights 13 into the measure of performances and the goodness of fit functions used in the calibration experiments. 14 The methodology has been then applied to all the calibration settings (i.e. combinations of algorithms, measure 15 of performances and goodness of fit functions) applied in the field literature within the past ten years. The study 16 allowed us to highlight and motivate the limits (sometime even the unsuitability) of some calibration settings so far 17 applied in the scientific literature. Research lines towards the definition of robust settings for the problem of car-18 following models calibration based on real trajectory data, are finally outlined.},

abstract = {The amount of time households and individuals spend on travelling can be seen as a result of complex daily interactions between household members, influenced by opportunities and constraints which vary from day to day. Extending the deterministic concept of travel time budget to a stochastic term, and applying a Stochastic Frontier Model to a dataset from the 2004 UK National Travel Survey, this study examines the unseen stochastic limit and the variations of the individual and household travel time and out-of-home activity duration overtime – concepts associated with travel time budgets. The results show that most individuals may have not have reached their limit yet to travel and may still be able to spend further time in travel activities. The analysis of the model outcomes and distribution tests show that among a range of employment statuses, only full-time workers' out-of-home time expenditure has reached its limit. Also observed is the effect of having children in the household: children reduce the unseen constraints of adult household members' out-of-home time thus reduce their ability to engage further at out-of-home activities. Even after the out-of-home trips taken into account in the analysis, the model shows that the dependent children's in-home responsibility will still reduce the ability of individual to travel to and engage at out-of-home activities. The analysis also reveals that compared with the overall population, specific groups (e.g. high income households, younger people) have larger needs of spending minimum travel time and also in doing their out-of-home travel and activities, whilst others (e.g. male, full-time workers) need less travel time to satisfy their minimum travel needs. This study also suggests that the individual out-of-home time expenditure may be a better budget indicator in drawing the constraints in individual space-time prisms than individual travel time budget.},

In an attempt to fill this gap, the activation of BLIP strategies was studied analytically. To this end, the extended kinematic wave model with bounded acceleration was chosen.

However, these activities are often treated as a single category, neglecting their differences. Whereas most leisure activities are flexible, club activities are usually scheduled longer in advance and are more fixed in time, location and company. Hence, trip-generating properties of club activities are likely to differ from those of other leisure activities. As very little is known about involvement in clubs or voluntary associations in relation to trip generation, voluntary association activities deserve further research in relation to travel. Therefore, in this paper a path analysis is conducted, analyzing the relationships between participation in clubs or voluntary associations, trip frequencies, and social network characteristics. The analyses are based on data collected in 2011 in Eindhoven in the Netherlands in a survey among 516 respondents. The results show interesting relationships between the social context and involvement in clubs. They indicate that people become club members through their social networks, and frequent club activities increase social network size. Family oriented people were found to go less often to clubs. Club membership and the frequency of going to club activities were also found to be affected by socio-demographics, such as gender, age, education, work, presence of young children in the household and owning a season ticket for public transport.},

abstract = {There is renewed interest in Europe in the potential role of new automated technologies for urban transport. Such systems include personal rapid transit (PRT), cybercars and high-tech buses, which have been studied in the European programme CityMobil. In the absence of empirical evidence on their performance, a common predictive modelling method has been used to predict the impacts of three comparable applications of these technologies in four case study cities. The design of the applications and the modelling assumptions were based on earlier research in the programme. The model results and a business case tool have been used to assess the contributions such systems make and their financial justification. Impacts on car use were often small, but were greater for city centre PRT schemes and cybercar feeder schemes. However, these schemes also attracted patronage from conventional public transport and from walking and cycling. Financial benefit cost ratios were often positive, reflecting the low costs of operation, and were particularly high in cities with high fare regimes and in areas with previously poorer levels of service. These results suggest appropriate conditions for a full scale trial of such technologies.},

abstract = {1 Time-varying Origin-Destination (OD) demands are the essential element in the modeling and 2 evaluation of advanced traffic management and control strategies for a large traffic network with 3 queues. Although extensive efforts have been made to develop time-varying synthetic OD 4 demands, few existing models are capable of matching the modeled time-varying demands with 5 the field observed demands at a level of accuracy sufficient for real-world applications. This 6 paper is intended to develop a practical approach to estimating time-varying OD demands 7 incorporating both floating car data (FCD) and remote traffic microwave sensors (RTMS) data. 8 The paper proposes a framework of the methodology based on a detailed analysis of the 9 characteristics of FCD and RTMS data. In this framework, the RTMS data are used to obtain the 10 controlling static OD demands for the entire modeling period to ensure that the total modeled 11 demands match the total observed demands. Then, an approach is developed to obtain time-12 varying splitting rates by a combined application of FCD and RTMS data. The approach is 13 designed in a way that takes full advantage of FCD, which provide some unique features that 14 none of other sources of data could provide. The resulting time-varying splitting rates are 15 subsequently applied to the controlling static OD demands to ultimately derive the time-varying 16 OD demands. The paper applies the proposed methodology to derive the time-varying OD 17 demands for the Western 3rd Ring-Road corridor network, which is shown to be both accurate 18 and practical.},

abstract = {Ridesharing serves to mitigate pollution and congestion with minimal investment of public capital while also increasing the efficiency of the transportation system. This research addresses the gaps in the literature on the structure and formation of ridesharing by identifying individual, household, and physical-environment characteristics that correspond with an individual's choice to rideshare instead of drive alone. In order to fully understand ridesharing behavior, there first must be a better understanding of who is in the vehicle not just how many. A distinction is made between intra-household (internal) and inter-household (external) ridesharing. Using the Vermont add-on sample of the 2009 National Household Travel Survey, a multinomial logit and nested logit model were developed to examine the determinants of ridesharing. The analysis in this research stresses the importance of how ridesharing behavior can be extracted from survey data. Further, a new method for calculating household vehicle availability is presented, which places less importance on drivers that are not full-time workers. The results indicate that employment density, distance to work and working in small urban area have positive influences on the likelihood of ridesharing. Vehicle availability, age, sex (male), and time spent per trip on the journey-to-work were all found to negatively influence the propensity to rideshare. Cost of travel does not significantly affect ridesharing.},

abstract = {1 It is well established that transit passengers dislike transferring. This is partially due to the inherent risk that the 2 connecting vehicle will be missed, which can increase overall trip time. Despite the problems they cause, missed 3 transfers across a system are rarely tracked in transit performance monitoring programs. The likelihood of a missed 4 transfer having occurred depends on combinations of several factors and thus is hard to estimate. In practice, transit 5 systems are most often evaluated according to the performance of individual vehicles, stops, and routes, not the 6 interactions between them. This paper describes a systems approach to quantify the effects of travel time reliability, 7 schedule adherence, and schedule design on missed transit connections, and the resulting travel time distributions. 8 To determine the effects of vehicle interactions on transfers, and the role that transfers play in travel time, a 9 series of simulations based on APC data from the San Diego bus system is carried out. Travel times on two transfer 10 trips in downtown San Diego are simulated. The effects of passenger arrival rate, on-time vehicle performance, and 11 schedule design on the likelihood of a transfer being missed are investigated in a sensitivity analysis. It is expected 12 that this research will lead to a better understanding of the passenger effects of schedule adherence on transfer trips. 13 Practically, this methodology could aid in the identification of a pair of buses whose chronic schedule deviations at a 14 particular location are likely causing missed transfers. 15 16},

abstract = {Although proponents have emphasized new urbanism?셲 ability to reduce automobile dependence, increase walking, and improve the health of its residents, there is a paucity of research to support these claims. The authors surveyed residents of 34 neighborhoods in 12 U.S. states to examine whether the travel behavior and physical activity of new urbanist neighborhood residents differed from their conventional suburban counterparts. They used a matched-pair design in which each new urbanist neighborhood was matched with a conventional suburban neighborhood in the same municipality. Regression analysis was used to examine associations between neighborhood type and the travel behavior and physical activity outcomes. Findings indicate that there was no difference in vehicle mileage, even though new urbanist residents made more trips ??by car, non-motorized, and within their neighborhood - than residents of conventional suburban neighborhoods. Thus, trips taken by new urbanist residents were shorter in length than trips taken by their suburban counterparts. For physical activity, new urbanist residents were more likely to meet current guidelines for weekly physical activity time. As a mitigation tool for the global warming effects of travel, new urbanism has yet to fulfill its anticipated goals. However, planners and health advocates should note the potential increases in physical activity and increased travel within the neighborhood that may come with new urbanism. Planners and developers can use this evidence as a basis for supporting new urbanism and its tenets, while addressing the potential negative effects of increased driving within such neighborhoods.},

abstract = {1 Several studies have indicated that responses to policies intended to reduce car use may fall 2 short of the predicted or desired response, suggesting a need for improved behavioral models. 3 One basis for improvement is to better account for population heterogeneity. In particular, 4 studies show that men and women have different transportation patterns based on gender-5 related characteristics and roles in families; these differences can be manifested in their mode 6 choice in the presence of demand management strategies. Based on stated preference mode 7 choice data, gathered from a sample of Tehran's commuter drivers to the CBD, this study 8 uses generalized nested logit models to find the significant variables affecting each gender's 9 mode choice under some price-and time-oriented policies. It can be seen that while some 10 variables are common to both genders, other variables influence only men's or only women's 11 behavior. Further, some of the common variables do not have the same signs for both 12 genders, offering post hoc validation of the need to model the genders' behavior separately. 13 Several results suggest that the hypothetical policies tested elicit not only changes in travel 14 behavior, but possibly other household role and lifestyle changes as well. We believe that 15 understanding the gender-based differences in factors important to mode choice can help 16 identify policies serving each gender's needs better and thus potentially increase the 17 willingness of both genders to shift away from driving. 18 19 Keywords: CBD toll, mode choice, generalized nested logit, parking pricing, stated 20 preference, transportation demand management (TDM), gender, behavior 21 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

ABSTRACT 1 This paper explores methods to attribute greenhouse gas emissions from transit vehicles across cities in a 2 multi-jurisdictional region. Four different methods (and one sub-method) are proposed, tested, and 3 evaluated using real-world data from the Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART), serving the San 4 Francisco Bay Area, and the Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District of Oregon (TriMet), serving 5 the region of Portland, Oregon. We evaluate each methodology based on the likely availability of 6 necessary data, the ease of calculation, policy implications, and accuracy. Method 1 allocates emissions 7 based on each jurisdiction's total population and employment as a share of population and employment 8 from all of the region's jurisdictions that have transit access. Method 2 allocates emissions based on each 9 jurisdiction's share of vehicle revenue miles traveled within the jurisdiction. Method 3 allocates emissions 10 based on each jurisdiction's share of linked transit trip origins and destinations, weighted by trip 11 distances. Method 4 allocates emissions based on each jurisdiction's share of boardings and alightings. 12 The methods have clear differences in the amount and type of data and the complexity of calculations 13 required. These differences can be readily compared to the data and analytical resources available to a 14 region to provide a partial ranking of methods. Questions of fairness, accuracy, and policy incentives are 15 complicated by theoretical challenges in assigning responsibility for transit service as well as by the 16 unique urban and transportation contexts of each region. The authors of this paper conclude that each 17 region will need to select the method that is most appropriate for its unique circumstances in order to 18 achieve intraregional consistency.},

abstract = {In previous research it was shown that current state-of-the-art calibration methods (single-criteria and weighted summation) are inadequate for calibrating microscopic traffic simulation platforms, since traffic dynamics is a multi-faceted problem wherein speed, volume and density interact with one another. Simulation outputs such as traffic operations (delay, travel time), road safety performance (time-to-collision, etc) and emissions are functions of these vehicular interactions. Calibrating the later measures without calibrating the underlying fundamental attributes does not ensure the validity of the simulation platform outputs. The previous results from a Pareto Archive Dynamically Dimensioned Search (PA-DDS) case study are showcased, along with a new methodology called Non-dominated Sorted Genetic Algorithm (NSGA II) for the three criteria of speed, volume and CPI/vehicle (a surrogate safety measure). The results are compared to those obtained from a weighted summation calibration using Genetic Algorithm. Different goodness-of-fit measures, Root Mean Squared Percentage Error and Mean Absolute Normalized Error, were tried to gauge their affect on the outcome of calibration results. 2},

The impacts of parental travel attitudes on children{\^{a}}€™s school travel behavior remain understudied. This paper outlines a conceptual framework that incorporates the relationships of attitudes, environment conditions, and children{\^{a}}€™s walking or biking to school. The framework recognizes the predictive power that attitudinal factors have for children{\^{a}}€™s walking or biking to school; the framework also highlights the moderating effects of parental travel attitudes on the predictive power of some environment conditions. By using data (1,197 cases) from a school travel survey conducted in a midsized school district in Oregon, this paper reports that parental attitudes toward walking or biking to school and car use are significant explanatory variables in models predicting occurrence of children walking or biking to school when the models control for important environmental variables. The analysis also reveals that important built environment variables{\^{a}}€”travel distance to school and neighborhood walkability{\^{a}}€”exhibit varying levels of impacts on the probability of children walking or biking to school when parents demonstrate different attitudes toward active school commuting and car use. The paper discusses implications of the research findings for the challenges facing Safe Routes to School Programs and explores approaches that can make these programs more effective.},

ABSTRACT 1 This paper utilizes socio-psychometric data measured using ad hoc surveys to investigate the 2 influence of attitudes, affective appraisal and habit formation on commuting mode choice. 3 The dataset was collected in 2009-2010 in Edmonton, Alberta. In addition to common 4 socioeconomic, demographic and modal attributes, the survey gathered psychological 5 information regarding habitual behaviour, affective appraisal and personal attitudes. Different 6 psychometric tools were used to capture psychological factors affecting mode choice. 7 Habitual behaviour was measured by using Verplanken's response-frequency questionnaire. 8 Affective appraisal was indirectly estimated using the Osgood's semantic differential. Five-9 point Likert scales were used to measure attitude. The Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) 10 approach was used to investigate the effects of psychological factors on mode choice 11 behaviour. SEM captures the latent nature of psychological factors and uses path diagram to 12 identify the directionality as well as intensity of the relationships. The investigation reveals 13 that passengers have positive emotions towards their chosen mode. Further, evidence of the 14 superiority of the car as a travel alternative was established in terms of strong habit towards 15 it, such that passengers would use the car for almost every single trip.},

abstract = {Lane changes are an important aspect of freeway flow. Most lane change models are microscopic, describing whether individual vehicles/drives will change lanes, and hence are calibrated microscopically. Macroscopic validation often is restricted to the distribution of vehicles across lanes. To the best of our knowledge, no systematic analysis has been made of the number of lane changes as function of the operational character- istics of the origin and target lane. This paper fills that gap, by analyzing the number of lane changes as function of several incentives. Based on data availability, two “simple” sites are selected, i.e. as close as possible to a straight continuous freeway. Statistically, we find that on the selected sites, drivers change lanes on average once per two kilometer driven. Furthermore, analyzing the number of lane changes (per kilometer per hour) as function of the density in the origin lane and in the target lane, we find, as expected, this increases with the density in the origin lane for a fixed density in the target lane. Surprisingly, it also increases with the density in the target lane for a fixed density in the origin lane. The underlying mecha- nism is therefore different than gap acceptance theory. The analyses presented in this paper can be used to qualitatively verify (microscopic and macroscopic) lane change models, and to propose better lane change models.},

abstract = {As part of integrated mobility services electric vehicles can contribute to a more sustainable urban mobility system. The authors' goal is to design new integrated mobility services to make electric vehicles a more attractive option for consumers. The authors focus on user requirements for services that integrate electric vehicles and public transport and therefore enable intermodal transport. In the authors' explorative study we confronted participants of four focus groups with four different concepts of integrated e-mobility services (IeMS). The first service ‘e to go' is described as a flexible car sharing system with EVs in areas with high population density. The second IeMS, ‘battery leasing', allows the owner of an electric vehicle to use battery swap facilities all over Germany at a fixed price. The third concept, ‘electricity at a fixed price', provides easy access to charging stations which offer green electricity only. And, finally, the concept ‘public trans-port and e-mobility' offers green electricity for privately owned EVs as well as annual local public transport tickets. An elaborate attitude-based approach was used to select focus group participants. Generally, focus group participants responded positively to the IeMS; however, the concepts presented were also controversially disputed. Particularly, respondents explicitly evaluated IeMS from a political point of view, e.g. with regard to the ecological sustainability and credibility of suppliers and provided services. The concept ‘e to go' was rated best followed by ‘electricity at a fixed price' and ‘battery leasing'. The concept ‘PT and e-mobility' found only a few adherents and got the worst rating.},

Schierholz, Gransberg, and McMinimee 2 Benefits and Challenges of Implementing Construction Manager/General Contractor Project Delivery: The 1 View from the Field. 2 3 Abstract: Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) project delivery method is an emerging method in 4 the transportation industry. To promote a better understanding of the benefits and challenges of implementing this 5 promising project delivery method the FHWA sponsored a CM/GC Peer Exchange in June 2011 in Utah as part of 6 the Every Day Counts program. This paper presents the output from that conference based on a content analysis of 7 the presentations from the conference, a panel discussion, and an interview with the Utah Department of 8 Transportation. These results were combined with the results of the National Cooperative Highway Research 9 Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 402 to benchmark the state-of-the-practice in terms of recognized benefits and 10 challenges of implementing CM/GC. The paper concludes that the state-of-the-practice in CM/GC is advancing and 11 expanding since the NCHRP Synthesis 402 was completed in 2009. The top five benefits found in the synthesis 12 remained in the top five but CM/GC's ability to accelerate the schedule has become the most important benefit 13 sought by departments of transportation (DOT). It also concludes that the major challenge to implementation is the 14 need for training for DOT personnel as well as the consulting firms and construction companies that will be 15 involved before attempting to implement CM/GC project delivery. 16 17 INTRODUCTION 18 The Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC, also referred to as Construction Manager-at-Risk by some 19 states) project delivery method is " an integrated team approach to the planning, design, and construction of a 20 highway project, to control schedule and budget, and to ensure quality for the project owner " (1). The method has 21 been used regularly for many years in building construction, but now, as a result of the Federal Highway 22 Administration's (FHWA) Every Day Counts (EDC) program (2) it is beginning to gain acceptance as an effective 23 means to accelerate the delivery of desperately needed infrastructure renewal projects. There are three primary team 24 members on a CM/GC project: the owner, the designer, and the CM/GC. The CM/GC contract consists of two 25 parts: preconstruction services and construction (3). The contractor is hired early in the design process and works 26 closely with the designer on the preconstruction services contract and once a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) is 27 established the CM becomes the GC and completes the construction. Additionally, in CM/GC highway projects, the 28 CM/GC is expected to self-perform some fixed percentage of that actual construction work (2), unlike CM-at-Risk 29 in the building industry where the CM often self-performs no work. 30 In late June 2011, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) hosted a CM/GC Peer Exchange 31 conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, as part of its EDC program. Agencies interested in implementing CM/GC were 32 able to hear presentations about CM/GC from experienced agencies. Speakers at the conference included three 33 FHWA members, six state Department of Transportation (DOT) members with CM/GC experience, the 34 Transportation Director of the City of Phoenix, the vice president of Sundt Construction, and a consulting engineer 35 with many years of CM/GC experience. Presentations ranged from overviews of using CM/GC at the federal and 36 state level to individual case studies conducted by various states. There was also a panel discussion with four state 37 DOTs, one FHWA representative, and the Sundt Construction vice president. Furthermore, the research team 38 conducted an interview with the Utah DOT while in Salt Lake City. A content analysis of the presentations, panel 39 discussion, and interview was performed and several trends in the benefits and challenges associated with CM/GC 40 were found. 41 42 MOTIVATION 43 Many states interested in implementing CM/GC are being met with some resistance by either state authority (laws 44 restricting the use of CM/GC) or local authority (agency members hesitant to change). With conferences such as the 45 CM/GC Peer Exchange, members can bring back knowledge about CM/GC and discuss the benefits and challenges 46 of this project delivery method to open a discussion to implement CM/GC. The NCHRP Synthesis 402 highlighted 47 the benefits and challenges of CM/GC (1). However, as states continue to implement CM/GC on a wider variety of 48 projects, more benefits are realized and more challenges are observed and overcome. Therefore the objective of this 49 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Protection of assets can be enhanced using the . p-dispersion model, which locates facilities to maximize the minimum distance between any two. Dispersion, however, is rarely the only objective for a system of facilities, and the . p-dispersion model is known to be difficult to solve. Therefore, this paper analyzes the trade-offs and computational times of four multi-objective models that combine the . p-dispersion model with other facility location objectives relevant to siting critical assets, such as the . p-median, max-cover, . p-center, and . p-maxian models. The multi-objective models are tested on a case study of Orlando, Florida. The dispersion/center model produced the most gradual trade-off curve, while the dispersion/maxian trade-off curve had the most pronounced " elbow." The center and median multi-objective models were far more computationally demanding than the models using max cover and . p-maxian. These findings may inform decision-makers and researchers in deciding what type of multi-objective models to use for planning dispersed networks of critical assets. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {A speed-change lane (SCL) is an auxiliary lane added to the traveled way for the acceleration and deceleration of vehicles entering or leaving a roadway. When the length of an acceleration SCL is adequate, drivers are able to accelerate comfortably from the speed at entrance to a speed appropriate to the road, find a gap in the traffic flow, and merge in a safe and secure manner. The length of an SCL is currently determined in terms of the ramp design speed, the freeway design speed, and the acceleration rate. Embedded in these values are assumptions for the operating speed at the entrance and merging points. This study examined a probabilistic approach instead of such a deterministic approach. The main benefit of a probabilistic approach is that traffic flow characteristics are assumed to be stochastic; therefore, the outcome of a probabilistic methodology is a distribution of drivers' acceleration distance on the SCL. The reliability-based analysis enables designers to select a specific percentile value of this distribution as a design length that better matches a certain situation and avoids unnecessary extra construction costs. This paper presents analytical and simulation models for the application of the reliability approach, with all parameters based on recently collected field data. Even though the presented model should be superior to the deterministic model adopted in current design guides, additional enhancements are recommended for a full reliability-based, safety-explicit design model.},

abstract = {1 This research program was sponsored by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Office of 2 Research and Development in support of the advancement of improved safety standards for 3 passenger rail vehicles. FRA and the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe 4 Center) have conducted research into alternative methods of evaluating occupied volume 5 integrity (OVI) in passenger railcars. This research has led to the development of a proposed 6 alternative strategy for evaluating OVI that moves the applied loads from the line of draft to the 7 collision load path. This alternative methodology establishes three evaluation load levels and a 8 corresponding set of pass/fail criteria for each level. Additionally, the proposed methodology 9 permits a combination of testing and analysis, whereas the conventional methodology only 10 permits testing. 11 A program of compression testing and finite element (FE) analyses was used to examine 12 the efficacy of applying this proposed methodology to evaluate a passenger railcar's OVI. The 13 conventional 800,000 pound buff strength test was performed on a passenger railcar both to 14 verify its structural integrity and to assist in the validation of an FE model. The validated FE 15 model was then used to simulate loading of the same railcar to its ultimate, or crippling, load. 16 Finally, two passenger railcars were tested to crippling. The crippling test results, including the 17 load-deflection behavior and crippling load magnitude, were compared to the analysis 18 predictions and found to be in good agreement. This testing and analysis program has helped 19 establish a technical basis for the proposed alternative OVI requirements and methodology. 20 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

By focusing on partially modeling driver response to VMT user fees, this paper aims to investigate the potential traffic mobility effects of such fees from a traffic operational point of view under user equilibrium conditions. On the basis of a nonlinear optimization-based conceptual framework, the proposed traffic assignment model is evaluated by assuming heterogeneous values of time. A simple corridor with a single origin-destination pair is first used to demonstrate the sensitivity of network performance to the VMT user fees in a deterministic capacity environment. The effects of VMT user fees depend significantly on the characteristics of the underlying transportation network, such as the relative length of the alternative paths, the overall traffic demand level, and of course the mileage-based fee itself. An open-source mesoscopic simulator is used to assess the systemwide travel time effects of VMT user fees on a real-world network.},

abstract = {This paper presents a multiple discrete-continuous extreme value model (MDCEV) of energy savings. The model predicts household decisions where to reduce CO2 emissions if they were forced to do so. The model's approach is to include all sectors of energy consumption such as private transport, housing, meat consumption and air travel. The hypothesis is that if households view all energy consumption as part of one overall budget, trade-offs between energy sectors are possible and can be modeled. The data base for the model was established with a survey among Swiss homeowners who have at least one car. In the survey the Priority Evaluator method was implemented in a web application with which the participants interactively reduced their CO2 output to a predefined goal. The MDCEV chooses multiple alternatives a household considers to reduce CO2 output and allocates the percentage of the overall reduction of to the chosen alternative. Estimation results show that installing new heating systems are preferred over refurbishment of roof and fa{\c{c}}ade, an effect that is even greater for higher income levels. Females and higher income households are more likely to buy a more efficient car. Households living in municipalities with better public transport accessibility are more likely to reduce annual mileage traveled. The paper also includes an assessment of the model performance analyzing the residuals. The conclusion of the paper is that the hypothesis of one overall energy budget could not be supported.},

abstract = {The housing search process, a topic of interest to both practitioners and researchers, starts with an alternative formation and screening practice. Due to the limitation of cognitive capacity, household members at this level evaluate potential alternatives based on many factors, such as lifestyle, preferences, and so on, to form a manageable choice set. This article attempts to provide a detailed study of this screening and filtering practice to develop a modeling framework that can replicate the choice set formation process. In order to show the potential of the method, one prospective decision criteria—the average desired commute to work distance—is considered the potential attribute that the household evaluates for feasible housing alternatives. It is postulated that alternatives will only be included in the choice set if the average work distance satisfies the household distance threshold. This article explores the viability of using proportional hazard models in the housing search process. Some of the specifications of hazard-based models that are typically used on temporal data are examined on average work distance. Several household sociodemographic attributes from eight waves of the Seattle Metropolitan Area's Puget Sound Transportation Panel (PSTP) are utilized for model estimation, along with built environment variables, characteristics of the supply side of the market, and several other economic indicators. The approach presented in this article provides a remedy for the large choice set problem typically faced in discrete choice modeling.},

For local areas where comprehensive data collection is too costly and infeasible, Bayesian updating can be used to synthesize travel demand data in a process generally referred to as data transferability. Bayesian updating has been occasionally employed for transferring travel data; however, various aspects and disadvantages of its use have been insufficiently studied. This work addresses issues about Bayesian updating techniques in data transferability, including a comparison of the use of conjugate and nonconjugate formulations in the updating models, their relative effectiveness, and impacts of the quality of the prior information on final results. The study shows that, in general, updating small local samples of travel attribute data with prior information from national data sources provides an improved estimate of local travel attributes compared with using the local sample only. However, this study found that the inclusion of all available historical data in the prior distributions does not necessarily improve the quality of the updating results. Therefore, careful analysis of the applicability of the prior information to the desired context is necessary when a Bayesian updating formulation is used. The 2001 National Household Travel Survey and the 1995 Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey were used for the demonstration exercises in this study.},

Deroo, Auberlet 2 / 15 ABSTRACT Pedestrian simulation is gaining more and more attention in recent years as demonstrated by the increasing number of pedestrians related paper in the literature. Whether this is for infrastructure design (stations, malls, etc.) or emergency evacuation, all fields are concerned. The different scales in modelling (macroscopic, microscopic) all have benefits and drawbacks. Several models exist in the pedestrian literature, most of them describing behaviours at a microscopic level. But no one deals with the coupling which can allow adaptation of the representation level to local needs. However, hybrid models begin to emerge in the road traffic field. The main goal of this paper is to present a first hybrid pedestrian model, given what exist in the road traffic field, by coupling a microscopic simulation model based on the Social Force Model of Helbing and the macroscopic traffic model LWR adapted to pedestrian simulation. This hybrid model would take the benefits of the two representation scales: being able to simulate a large network and having detailed information on specific nodes. The work is built on two main parts: the coupling of the macroscopic and the microscopic model on one side, and the calibration of the hybridization on another one. In the calibration part, the problems of compatibility is considered to elaborate several conditions at the transitions. This paper is a first work and is aimed at being completed in the future. The case of a unidirectional flow is investigated here and will further be updated to simulate a bidirectional flow.},

A simulation-based optimization model is developed to solve the problem, which uses simulation to evaluate alternative project schedules. A genetic algorithm is developed in order to efficiently solve this large investment optimization problem, using some prescreening rules to reduce the number of simulated alternatives. The mutually exclusive alternatives at each location allow us jointly optimize the sizing and timing of improvements. The multiple budget constraints realistically reflect actual funding practices but considerably complicate the problem because project sequencing no longer uniquely determines the schedules and projects may now be funded concurrently. The numerical example shows how the additional factors considered here can be properly incorporated in the analysis and how the quality and reliability of results from such a relatively complex model can be verified.

Due to these dual functions, they 4 warrant an interdisciplinary approach to planning and management that incorporates 5 frameworks from both the fields of transportation and outdoor recreation. The intent of this 6 research was therefore to: (1) investigate the relationship between transportation and 7 recreation from a greenway user's perspective; (2) consider and integrate transportation and 8 recreation frameworks that measure quality of greenway travel; and (3) determine the 9 significance of settings in users' perceptions of quality. On-site surveys of users across three 10 greenways in northern New England (n=841) were administered to solicit knowledge of how 11 travelers use and perceive the quality of these facilities. Findings suggest greenways are used 12 primarily for recreation, but often incorporate varying elements of transportation. Furthermore, 13 travelers' perceptions of quality differ across settings. This paper also illustrates that 14 transportation and recreation planning frameworks may be integrated to provide a more holistic 15 approach to greenway planning and management. 16 17 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Gayah and Daganzo 1 ABSTRACT Recently, there has been a trend of cities converting traditional one-way downtown street networks to two-way operation. Several reasons are given for this: one-way networks are seen as confusing for visitors, less conducive to economic activity and a livable environment, and require vehicles to travel additional distance in order to reach their destination. However, one of the main disadvantages of such conversions is thought to be a reduction in the network's capacity to serve vehicle trips because intersections in two-way networks can serve fewer vehicles per unit time than their one-way counterparts. Several studies have been performed to assess the difference between these two types of networks but most studies are site specific and do not consider the best possible two-way network types. This paper presents an analytical model that uses macroscopic analysis techniques to compare the trip-serving capacities of one-way and two-way networks. It is found that, contrary to prevailing wisdom, two-way networks can serve more trips per unit time than one-way networks when average trips lengths are short. This study also finds that two-way networks in which left-turn movements are banned at intersections can always serve more trips than one-way networks, even when trips are long. Thus, the trip-serving capacity of a one-way network can actually be increased when converting to two-way operation by simply banning left turns. In this way, livability and efficiency objectives can be achieved simultaneously. The findings from this work can be used by planners and engineers to determine how much a network's capacity changes after a conversion, and also to unveil superior conversion options.},

The system's objective is to alleviate the total corridor delay attributable to nonrecurrent or recurrent congestion on the freeway. An optimization-based model, the integrated corridor traffic optimization model (ICTOM), was established to minimize total traffic delay, includ- ing delays on the freeway, signal control delays on the diversion route, and delays attributable to travel time differences between two routes. The model determines diversion volumes from the freeway to an arterial cor- ridor and signal-timing plans on the diversion route. ICTOM features a nonlinear objective function and linear constraints. Three algorithms were evaluated in seeking a solution for ICTOM: genetic algorithm, pattern search, and sequential quadratic programming. The sequential quadratic programming algorithm was selected because of its effective- ness and efficiency in the case study. Evaluation based on the CORSIM simulation showed that in real time, ICTOM realized total average reductions in corridor delay of 8.77{\%}, 9.92{\%}, and 13.16{\%} under heavy-, moderate-, and light-traffic conditions, respectively, compared with the benchmark in which the timing plans for traffic signals were optimized by TRANSYT 7F offline.},

The optimization problem is formulated as a nonlinear mathematical program with continuous pavement state and continuous time, and optimality conditions are derived. Managerial insights and practical implications are drawn from two realistic application scenarios, where the maintenance cost is either independent of or linearly dependent on pavement condition, to address impacts of routine maintenance activities on pavement resurfacing planning decisions. Numerical examples demonstrate clear trade-offs between maintenance and resurfacing activities in terms of both pavement improvement effectiveness and costs. This paper shows that maintenance activities, if applied optimally, have the potential to significantly prolong pavement service life between consecutive rehabilitations and reduce overall pavement lifecycle costs. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

Bristow, Miles Tight, Astrid G{\"{u}}hnemann and Jeremy Shires 37 38 39 40 ABSTRACT 41 42 How the monetary valuations that enter cost-benefit analyses are specified to vary over time can have 43 a significant effect on the outcomes of appraisals. The most commonly used valuation in appraisals in 44 the transport market relates to travel time savings. Several repeat studies have been conducted to test 45 inter-temporal effects whilst income elasticities from meta-analyses and numerous cross-sectional 46 studies add to what is a considerable evidence base. 47 48 This study is novel in terms of conducting what we believe to be the first repeat Stated Preference 49 study of environmental valuations, in the particular context of aircraft noise valuation, and indeed of 50 exploring how such valuations might vary over time. It also adds to the limited amount of evidence in 51 this area. 52 53 What previous evidence there is suggests that the cross-sectional income elasticity for transport 54 related noise valuations is somewhat less than the unitary elasticity used in the UK to uplift monetary 55 valuations over time. There are, however, reasons why cross-sectional income elasticities do not 56 apply over time, not least because those who have higher incomes and hence generally higher 57 valuations are more able to choose to live in quieter areas which in itself might deflate their valuations. 58 Our evidence indicates that the cross-sectional income elasticity is very low. In addition, our repeat 59 studies do not provide support for valuations increasing over time. 60 61 INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES 62 63 The economic appraisal of investment in transport infrastructure and operations, of travel 64 demand management measures and of a diverse range of transport policy interventions requires 65 monetary valuations of the changes in wellbeing attributable to changes in a wide range of non-66 monetary factors. 67 The most commonly used and longstanding monetary valuation in transport appraisal relates 68 to travel time, with a history of over 40 years of application in countless studies. A key issue with the 69 value of time or indeed any monetary value in appraisal is how it varies over time. The elasticity of 70 the value of time with respect to income is central to the issue of temporal transferability since we 71 would expect willingness to pay to increase as income increases. There can also be trend variations in 72 valuations over time as preferences and attitudes change whilst of course changes in the socio-73 economic composition of the population will cause values to vary over time to the extent that these 74 socio-economic factors drive valuations. Nonetheless, the key parameter for policy makers and 75 appraisers remains the income elasticity. 76 How the value of time varies over time is essentially an issue for empirical resolution but 77 whether the elasticity is unity, or 0.5 or indeed zero, all of which and others have had their advocates, 78 will make a significant difference to the outcomes of cost-benefit analyses. An elasticity of unity 79 would mean that values increase directly in line with incomes, thus if incomes increase by 10{\%} so 80 would the value of time. Whilst an elasticity less than one but above zero would mean that values 81 increase but at a slower rate than incomes, an elasticity in excess of one would mean that values 82 increase more quickly than incomes as is the case for luxury goods. 83 We are now in a world where valuations are assigned to environmental factors, such as 84 aircraft noise, and hence the same issue arises as to how the valuation of environmental factors varies 85 over time. The inter-temporal elasticity used for environmental factors will have a large bearing on 86 their importance in cost-benefit analysis. 87 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The aim of this paper is to present a practical example of implementing terrestrial 7 laser scanning and imaging total station as part of topographical survey for road design and road 8 safety analysis. Two different types of advanced surveying instruments are used and the 9 application includes two types of road intersections (urban and suburban). All data for this 10 project were newly generated. Specifically, no drawings as-built (original construction) existed 11 for the selected road intersections, and no data sets (digital or hard copy) were used as 12 references or as enhancements to the data produced. The methodology is demonstrated for the 13 estimation of sight distances directly from the created 3D models. The methodology presented 14 in this paper can be readily applied by practitioners and can have tangible benefits for road 15 safety and the reduction of accidents, fatalities and injuries. 3D laser scanning is a powerful tool 16 that can have many other applications in highway engineering and design. The ability to 17 construct a highly detailed model of the infrastructure at its actual current state is valuable as it 18 can be used to monitor its condition over time and space.

abstract = {Research with a panel of working adults in northern communities was conducted to assess the impact of weather on commuting to work by bicycle. Participants commuted at least 2 mi each way and commuted by bike more than twice annually. Transportation mode was recorded for four 7-day periods in 2009 and 2010 (one sampling period per season). Mode, personal characteristics, and commute length were linked to location- and time-specific weather conditions and to daylight hours on commuting days. Analyses focused on the effects of season, weather, and other factors to develop binary models for commuting by bicycle. The likelihood of bike commuting increased 3{\%} with every 1 F increase in morning temperature and decreased by 5{\%} with a 1 mph increase in wind speed. Likelihood of biking to work was more than double on days with no morning precipitation. Hours of daylight had no discernible effect, although study participants cited this as a barrier in the baseline survey. Distance to work negatively affected the likelihood of bike commuting. Men were nearly twice as likely to bike commute on a given day as were women. Separate models for men and women suggested that these groups responded similarly to adverse weather conditions, although some effects were less pronounced among women because of a smaller sample size. An appreciable portion of participants biked to work throughout the year in a variety of weather conditions, a result that suggested that a northern climate might not necessarily preclude year-round bike commuting. Multimodal commuting was prevalent in the sample: on 20{\%} of the days that participants reported biking to work, they reported returning home by another mode. Helping cyclists learn to deal safely with cold and dark conditions and facilitation of multimodal bicycle commuting may promote wider use of bicycle commuting and extend the northern bicycle commute season.},

abstract = {Stated choice surveys are used extensively in the study of choice behaviour across many different areas of research, notably in transport. One of their main characteristics in comparison with most types of revealed preference (RP) surveys is the ability to capture behaviour by the same respondent under varying choice scenarios. While this ability to capture multiple choices is generally seen as an advantage, there is a certain amount of unease about survey length. The precise definition about what constitutes a large number of choice tasks however varies across disciplines, and it is not uncommon to see surveys with up to twenty tasks per respondent in some areas. The argument against this practice has always been one of reducing respondent engagement, which could be interpreted as a result of fatigue or boredom, with frequent reference to the findings of Bradley and Daly (1994) who showed a significant drop in utility scale, i.e., an increase in error, as a respondent moved from one choice experiment to the next, an effect they related to respondent fatigue. While the work by Bradley and Daly has become a standard reference in this context, it should be recognised that not only was the fatigue part of the work based on a single dataset, but the state-of-the-art and the state-of-practice in stated choice survey design and implementation has moved on significantly since their study. In this paper, we review other literature and present a more comprehensive study investigating evidence of respondent fatigue across a larger number of different surveys. Using a comprehensive testing framework employing both Logit and mixed Logit structures, we provide strong evidence that the concerns about fatigue in the literature are possibly overstated, with no clear decreasing trend in scale across choice tasks in any of our studies. For the data sets tested, we find that accommodating any scale heterogeneity has little or no impact on substantive model results, that the role of constants generally decreases as the survey progresses, and that there is evidence of significant attribute level (as opposed to scale) heterogeneity across choice tasks.},

abstract = {The 0.5-mile distance has become accepted for gauging a transit station's catchment area in the United States and is the de facto standard for the planning of U.S. transit-oriented developments (TODs). Planners and researchers use transit catchment areas not only to make predictions about transit ridership and transit impacts (socioeconomic and on land use) but also to prescribe regulations (e.g., relaxing restrictive zoning or carving out TODs for financial plans). This radius is loosely based on the distance that people are willing to walk to transit, but the same reasoning has been used to justify other transit catchment areas. Station-level variables from 1,449 high-capacity American transit stations in 21 cities are used to determine whether a clear benchmark between distance and ridership provides a norm for station-area planning and prediction. Results indicate that, for the purposes of predicting station-level transit ridership, different catchment areas have little influence on a model's predictive power. This finding suggests that transit agencies should use the easiest, most readily available data when estimating direct demand models. The evidence is less clear for prescribing land use policy. Nevertheless, results support the use of a 0.25-mile catchment area around transit for jobs and a 0.5-mile catchment area for population. Even though these distances probably will vary, depending on the location and the study purpose, the distances are good starting points for considering transit-oriented land use policy or collecting labor-intensive data, such as surveys, about transit-adjacent firms or households.},

Reducing erosion and turbidity from slopes by applying polyacrylamide 50 (PAM) has been well demonstrated over the last 10 years, with sediment in runoff reduced by up 51 to 98{\%}. In addition, a number of recent and current studies are cited which provide some insight 52 to the possibilities of using passive treatment systems (PTS) to introduce flocculants to address 53 the turbidity problem. The introduction of these systems can produce dramatic reductions in 54 turbidity to levels {\textless}50-100 nephelometric turbidity units (NTU), as demonstrated for numerous 55 storm events on many sites. On these active construction sites, no turbidity limit was being 56 enforced so the function of a PTS was often compromised by construction activities. However, 57 it is possible to quickly mitigate needed construction disturbances if the skill and motivation are 58 in place. Overall, successful PTS requires sufficient training of construction site staff, primarily 59 the grading crew, in PTS functions and problems to avoid. It is likely a person trained in PTS 60 will be needed on staff, or as a contractor. In most cases, the key factor in successful PTS use is 61 routing all water from disturbed areas into the water conveyance with PTS installed. Bypass 62 flows of untreated runoff are often the cause of turbidity spikes. The area immediately around 63 sediment basins needs to be stabilized at all times to prevent the contribution of untreated, turbid 64 runoff into the basin.},

This research uses the truck appointment information obtained from an appointment system to improve import container retrieval operation and reduce container rehandles by adopting an advanced container location assignment algorithm. By reducing container rehandles, the terminal could improve yard crane productivity and reduce truck transaction time. A hybrid approach of simulation and queuing theory was developed to model the container retrieval operation and estimate the crane productivity and truck turn-time. Various configurations of the truck appointment system are modeled to investigate how those factors affect the effectiveness of the truck information. The research results illustrate a clear benefit for terminals utilizing a truck appointment system to manage their yard operation. Reducing the duration of the appointment time window or increasing the appointment lead time could further enhance system performance. Furthermore, the truck information is still effective in improving system efficiency, even if a good portion of trucks miss their appointments.},

While much research in bikesharing is duly taking place, there have been hardly any studies on the factors influencing travel behavior in bikesharing. This study has taken five variables that may significantly influence bikesharing— the floor area of nearby residential and commercial buildings, parks, schools, and subway stations—and performed regression analyses to determine their impact on the frequency of bikesharing usage. In particular, the study separately analyzes conditions which are expected to render different behaviors, including weekdays vs. weekends; precipitation; and departure point and destination. As a result of the analysis, the total area around residential and commercial buildings, parks, schools, and subway stations were shown to have a positive influence on bikesharing usage, although the extent of such influence was shown to vary depending on the model. Commercial buildings were shown to promote public bicycle usage more than residential buildings; and parks were shown to encourage bikesharing usage 3 to 5 times more than schools or subway stations. A difference between weekday and weekend travel behavior was also identified, with the latter seeing twice the amount of bikesharing traffic volume than the former. Rainfall was generally shown to decrease bikesharing usage as is presumed. The results of this study can be used in estimating the appropriate scale of new bikesharing stations at various venues, and are also applicable to building strategies for maximizing the efficiency of bicycle redistribution.},

This article aims to evaluate the impacts of implementing a combination of strategies, designed to improve the bus transit service, on running time and passenger satisfaction. These strategies include using smart card fare collection, introducing limited-stop bus service, implementing reserved bus lanes, using articulated buses, and implementing transit signal priority (TSP). This study uses stop-level data collected from the Soci??t?? de transport de Montr??al (STM)'s automatic vehicle location (AVL) and automatic passenger count (APC) systems, in Montr??al, Canada. The combination of these strategies has lead to a 10.5{\%} decline in running time along the limited stop service compared to the regular service. The regular route running time has increased by 1{\%} on average compared to the initial time period. The study also shows that riders are generally satisfied with the service improvements. They tend to overestimate the savings associated with the implementation of this combination of strategies by 3.5-6.0. min and by 2.5-4.1. min for both the regular route and the limited stop service, respectively. This study helps transit planners and policy makers to better understand the effects of implementing a combination of strategies to improve running time and passenger's perception of these changes in service. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {With the increase of container transportation in past decades, more freight trucks are employed in the container port. One emerging issue is that the container port may encounter traffic congestions when the demand of container transportation increases significantly. Another issue is that port operators need to decide the yard truck fleet size. To respond to these issues, a micro-simulation model is proposed to model the truck movements within the port area. Unlike simulations of traffic in the city area, this model has to simulate the port specified behaviors of trucks as well as the crane operations. A traffic simulation tool Paramics is adopted in this research and its APIs (Application Program Interfaces) are used to develop additional applications to satisfy the needs in modeling the port specified operations. The proposed simulation model is calibrated by minimizing the RMSPE (Root Means Squared Percentage Error) between the observed O/D trips and the simulated O/D trips of trucks. A scenarios analysis by varying the transportation demand is conducted on the entire terminal, the result shows that a number of road segments within the studied port area will face significant congestions when more trucks are employed. A decision support system based on this micro-simulation model is also proposed in this paper, which is able to determine the yard truck fleet size to optimize the loading/unloading operations in the port.},

This study aims to develop a methodology to estimate collision rate considering the traffic state in a freeway section focusing on the speed variables.

The collisions were classified into three types (Rear-end, Sideswipe, and Others), and two variables (speed difference between upstream and downstream and average speed of upstream and downstream) were considered as independent variables for standard linear regression analysis. The findings showed that both speed difference and average speed had an influencing explanation to state the collision rate by each type of collision and traffic state. Rear-end and sideswipe collisions showed different collision rate pattern with the others, and the influence of the speed difference between upstream and downstream changed according to the traffic state. Through regression analysis, rear-end and sideswipe collision rates were expressed by the speed difference, while other types of collisions were described by the average speed. The research can provide a methodology to understand the collision potential for the highway according to the traffic state, and can be widely used for roadway traffic safety improvement.},

West, Gransberg and McMinimee 2 Effective Tools for Projects Delivered Using the Construction Manager/General Contractor 1 2 Abstract: Construction Manager/General Contractor (CMGC) is an alternative project delivery method that is fast 3 becoming more prevalent to accelerate the delivery of highway projects. The FHWA's Every Day Counts program is 4 encouraging state departments of transportation (DOT) to adopt CMGC as a tool to deliver badly needed rapid 5 renewal projects. As part of the program, a CMGC Peer Exchange conference was held in June 2011 in Salt Lake 6 City. This paper synthesizes the tools used in implementing CMGC project delivery that were reported in those 7 conference presentations by DOTs with CMGC experience. It compares that information with similar information 8 found in the literature in order to document the current state-of-the-practice in CMGC highway project delivery. The 9 paper concludes that jointly managing risk and developing a collaborative business climate are the two most 10 important aspects of successful CMGC project delivery. 11 12 INTRODUCTION 13 Construction Manager/General Contractor (CMGC) is an alternative delivery method for transportation projects in 14 which the owner engages a design professional and a CMGC under separate contracts. The CMGC contract is 15 awarded during the design phase and provides preconstruction services such as estimating, scheduling and 16 constructability reviews. Once the design has been advanced to a point where a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) 17 can be established, the CMGC assumes the role of the general contractor and completes the construction (1). 18 Typically this method requires the CMGC to self-perform a predetermined percent of the project (2) and the CMGC 19 is at-risk for costs per the GMP. The CMGC method is typically implemented via two separate contracts, one for 20 preconstruction services and the other for construction (1). 21 The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) sponsored a CMGC Peer Exchange in Salt Lake City, Utah 22 in June of 2011 as part of its Every Day Counts (EDC) program (3). The event was attended by members of state 23 Departments of Transportation (DOTs), FHWA and the construction industry. Throughout the Peer Exchange 24 agencies with CMGC experience gave presentations on CMGC projects that are currently underway. Other speakers 25 discussed their experiences with implementing the method. As a result, the research team was able to capture the 26 state-of-the-practice and lists of key points for achieving successful CMGC project delivery. Furthermore, many 27 agencies described project delivery tools and practices that have proven to be effective on CMGC projects. 28 Therefore, the objective of this paper is to compare tools described in the Peer Exchange with the effective CMGC 29 tools found in National Cooperative Highway Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 402: Construction Manager-at-Risk 30 Project Delivery for Highway Programs, (1) and other literature to document the current-state-of-the practice in this 31 emerging technique for accelerating the delivery of critical infrastructure projects. 32 33 MOTIVATION 34 The FHWA EDC program is actively encouraging state DOTs to implement CMGC (3). For those that decide to 35 adopt CMGC, it will be the first attempt at the alternative delivery method for transportation projects. For this 36 reason, it is critical to document past efforts and transfer lessons learned regarding keys to success and effective 37 CMGC tools from agencies with CMGC experience. Sharing this type of knowledge as quickly as possible within 38 the industry allows for greater consistency across the nation and more efficient progression up the learning curve for 39 DOTs. 40 41 EFFECTIVE TOOLS IN LITERATURE 42 The following list of effective practices for CMGC (Note: this document uses CMR in the same sense as CMGC) is 43 taken directly from NCHRP Synthesis 402 (1). 44 45 1. " The case study interviews noted that agencies can develop a documented procedure for selecting CMR as 46 the project delivery method based on project characteristics. Additionally, a similar policy can be 47 developed for selecting the CMR contractor based on the same project characteristics. 48 2. A CMR selection process is transparent, logical and defensible appears to be less likely to be susceptible to 49 protest. 50 3. Eight of ten case study agencies utilized the same Quality Assurance (QA) program for CMR as they do for 51 DBB [Design-bid-build]. Therefore, it appears that no modification is necessary to a DOT's QA program to 52 implement CMR project delivery. 53 4. The two most often cited preconstruction services in transportation projects were design reviews and 54 constructability reviews. Both of these are essential components of the design QC [Quality Control] 55 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Fishman, Washington {\&} Haworth 2 ABSTRACT 1 In an effort to address a number of public policy challenges, federal, state and local 2 governments have begun to encourage bicycle riding for transport. When used as a substitute 3 for motor vehicle use, cycling reduces traffic congestion and carbon emissions, and provides 4 a practical source of physical activity, helping to reduce diseases associated with a sedentary 5 lifestyle, such as diabetes. An increasing number of cities are operating public bicycle share 6 schemes (PBSS) to promote greater levels of bicycle riding. This rapid expansion of PBSS, 7 however, has occurred in the absence of a comprehensive evaluation framework to properly 8 assess their effectiveness and impact. The absence of such a framework hinders thoughtful, 9 consistent analysis and constrains the ability to reliably quantify the potential broad ranging 10 impacts of these schemes. Moreover, identifying the determinants and detractors of success 11 of PBSS is an important goal that is greatly assisted by the establishment of an evaluation 12 framework. 13 This paper provides a critical review of the most recent literature on PBSS and 14 identifies substantial gaps in current knowledge. Addressing the gaps, the first conceptual 15 evaluation framework within which the effectiveness of PBSS can be assessed is presented. 16 The framework brings together essential analytical elements required to quantify and assess 17 how PBSS are performing. Using Barcelona's PBSS as a case study, this paper provides a 18 practical conceptual basis for improving our understanding of how to measure the impact of 19 these increasingly popular PBSS on transport, sustainability, health, and community livability 20 objectives. 21 22 INTRODUCTION 23 Governments have begun to encourage bicycle riding for transport, in an effort to address a 24 number of public policy challenges. Cycling, when used as a substitute for motor vehicle use 25 reduces traffic congestion and carbon emissions, and provides a practical source of physical 26 activity, helping to reduce diseases associated with a sedentary lifestyle, such as diabetes [1-27 3]. In recent years PBSS have emerged to promote increased bicycle riding. What initially 28 began as small pilot projects in some Northern European cities in the 1960s, have expanded 29 into large-scale, city-wide schemes in many European cities, as well as similar, albeit 30 typically smaller programs in the US, Canada and Australia. Hangzhou, China currently has 31 the largest bicycle program globally, with over 60,000 bicycles [4, 5]. The overwhelming 32 majority of the growth in PBSS has taken place since 2005, due to increased public policy 33 focus on bicycle riding and various tracking and payment technologies becoming available 34 and affordable [6]. 35 Contemporary PBSS refer to the provision of bicycles to enable short-term rental 36 from one docking station (where bicycles are picked up and returned) to another. These 37 bicycles usually contain technologies that allow operators to track their location. Members of 38 the public are able to register to hire the bicycles, either online or through information kiosks, 39 although some schemes only allow online registration. These kiosks are generally located at 40 each docking station. Pricing structures typically encourage short-term rental (for example, 41 the first 30 minutes are usually free), after which users are typically charged on a sharply 42 rising scale. Users are generally required to provide credit card details, which act as both a 43 deposit and payment for registration and usage fees. 44 Over the last 10 to 15 years, a range of government programs have served to promote 45 cycling and these can be broadly divided into 'soft' and 'hard' measures [7]. Soft measures 46 refer to social marketing campaigns focused on providing information to encourage a shift 47 from single occupant car use towards more sustainable transport options, such as car pooling, 48 walking, cycling, public transport and telecommuting.

The idea of using GTFS has been drawing attention in the public transit planning area these days. We explore how to use this innovative data source in a transit network by proposing SAM. Our hypothesis is based on the fact that transit users' activity may not be originated from or destined to an individual stop per se; rather, the activity is associated with a specific location in the vicinity of the stop, and this location may be " covered " by several adjacent transit stops. The goal of SAM, therefore, is to define a generalized definition of a " stop " that more closely matches the nature of locations that serve as passenger origins and destinations. To define an aggregate area around a transit stop or station, three parameters are investigated: (a) distance or proximity; (b) text in the stop description; and, (c) the catchment area. These aggregated stop " groups " can be represented as a single node in the transit network, depending on the level of aggregation desired. A case study of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area is performed using GTFS data from Metro Transit. SAM can be practically applied in estimating aggregate level origin-destination flows and linking with on-board survey data.},

A similar phenomenon may also 3 exist in resident location of the population in an urban area. This may also emerge form 4 " residential segregation " and ethnic enclaves. Residential segregation may be influenced 5 by location characteristics, social compositions, and accessibility measures. In this paper 6 we employ spatial clustering using indicators that comprise resident population and its 7 characteristics, infrastructure provision, activity opportunities by opportunity type, 8 housing supply, and synoptic measures of travel. We also introduce time of day as a 9 fundamental unit in classifying the spatial units. 10 Classification of spatial units is done first with a cluster technique that accounts 11 for spatial dependence in opportunity-based accessibility on one variable such as 12 accessibility to health services. Then, normalized scores for these spatial units are used 13 to derive a second set of clusters using multiple variables to build the classification of 14 spatial units. Then, the characteristics of the residents in each spatial units are examined 15 for the Los Angeles County region with a sample of approximately 6,000 geo-located 16 households with corresponding data on their residences along with detailed location 17 characteristics. We explore the characteristics of households that live in these locations 18 based on their cluster taxonomies to draw conclusions about the distribution and 19 membership in clusters.

abstract = {Priced managed lanes have been proposed and implemented exclusively on limited-access roadways. Yet major arterials handle a large fraction of urban traffic and account for a significant portion of traffic congestion. This paper proposes a way to apply priced congestion relief to major arterials (six or more lanes) and builds on research from the early Value Pricing Pilot Program on tolled queue jumps (grade separations) at signalized intersections, carried out in Lee County, Florida. A 'managed arterial' (MA) is defined as an arterial retrofitted with a series of electronically tolled grade separations (overpasses or underpasses) that provide an alternative to the signalized intersection for through traffic. Bus rapid transit is an important element of the concept, and the MA provides an alternative to arterial bus-only lanes, similar to high- occupancy toll lanes providing an alternative to bus-only lanes on freeways. The study addresses issues and trade-offs in integrating bus rapid transit into the design and operation of MAs. The study includes conceptual designs of overpasses and underpasses for use in MAs and estimates the throughput increase obtained by converting a six-lane arterial to the MA configuration compared with that provided by widening it to eight lanes. Sketch-level estimates of financial feasibility are included.},

With a comparison of the histories of the former electric railroads with those of operations that survived, the reasons for their discontinuance are investigated. Perhaps unexpectedly, the Great Depression does not solely account for the demise of most of these lines. Instead, major geographic barriers precluding direct downtown service and the construction of new highway links appear to have been at least as important.

abstract = {Road maintenance is essential to ensure a safe and efficient transportation system. In this paper we address two major limitations in current work zone optimization models. First, we relax the assumption of determinism and model vehicle arrivals as being stochastic. While previous work has shown that this relaxation is important in the quantification of user delay at work zones, to the best of the author's knowledge, no model exists that explicitly accounts for stochasticity in the optimization of work zones. Second, unlike in previous work where rather idealized traffic flow modeling techniques were used, the proposed model is based on the traffic flow theory-based cell transmission model, yielding a more accurate and realistic representation of traffic flow dynamics. Numerical examples are presented and discussed. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. 3 1. Introduction Periodic maintenance of a nation's highway network is critical for a safe and efficient transportation system. Unfortunately, maintenance activities/ work zones can give rise to significant user delays. To address this issue, researchers have developed various optimization models with the goal to minimize the delay for travellers (and the agency's maintenance costs) during roadwork, e.g. see Schonfeld and Chien (1999), Jiang and Adeli (2003), Chen and Schonfeld (2004) and Ng et al. (2009). For work zone studies of a more descriptive nature, we refer the reader to Benekkohal and Wang (1993), Krammers and Lopez (1994) and Benekohal et al. (2004) and the references therein. Upon a careful review of state-of-the-art work zone optimization models, at least two shortcomings were identified. First, while previous research has addressed critical issues in the optimal configuration of work zones, they are all based on the assumption of determinism. That is, vehicles were assumed to arrive at work zones according to some known, deterministic queuing process, e.g. see Schonfeld and Chien (1999). In reality, vehicle arrivals are more likely stochastic in nature (Ng et al., 2010). This questionable assumption of determinism has also been observed in Chien et al. (2002) in which micro-simulation was used to evaluate delay at freeway work zones. They found that deterministic queuing theory tends to underestimate the actual delay. Second, by using deterministic queuing theory, current work zone optimization models assume rather idealized representations of traffic flow dynamics at work zones, while accurate traffic flow modeling is paramount to model realism. Note that some researchers, such as Chien et al. (2002), did employ rigorous traffic flow modeling (in the form of microsimulation). However, no attempt was made to find optimal work zone configurations, i.e. their work was of a more descriptive nature. To address these shortcomings, a new traffic flow optimization model is proposed in this paper that explicitly addresses these concerns. In this paper, we shall focus our attention on the widely researched two lane highway configuration (e.g. see Schonfeld and Chien, 1999). The maintenance of a two lane highway (or more accurately, a two way two lane highway) often requires the closure of one of the lanes. The open lane then serves traffic from both directions alternately, while maintenance work is performed on the closed lane. When traffic from direction 1 is given right-of-way to the open lane, vehicles arriving from direction 2 wait and queue up and vice versa (see Figure 1). Right-of-way is transferred to the other direction after some time. As our main goal is the introduction of stochasticity and traffic dynamics, in this paper it is assumed that the length of the work zone is fixed. Thus, the challenge reduces to the determination of an optimal strategy to alternate the right-of-way between the two directions. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. In Section 2 the modeling approach is discussed, followed by the rigorous model formulation in Section 3. Section 4 presents a case study to demonstrate the proposed model. Finally, Section 5 concludes this paper by summarizing the main conclusions and findings in this paper.},

abstract = {In this article, we propose a new analytical traffic flow model for traffic dynamics at signalized intersections. During each cycle, both the arrival and the departure traffic are approximated by three distinct traffic streams with uniform density. Because of the similar representation of the arrival and the departure traffic, the results from a single intersection can easily be extended to a series of intersections. The number of parameters of the model is tractable, leading to analytical solutions of the problem. We prove that the total delay of one-way traffic is a quasi-convex function in the offset between consecutive traffic cycles and derive analytically the optimal signal control corresponding to different profiles of arrival densities. This allows timely adjustments of the control as congestion evolves throughout the day. We also study how different density profiles evolve in a corridor, from one intersection to the downstream one, if there is no traffic from/to side streets. We find that all density profiles eventually lead to one profile after a few intersections. This corresponds to a green wave, in agreement with physical intuition. Finally, we test the model against data from microsimulation using CORSIM. Vehicle delay predicted by the model is shown to be close to that from the microsimulation.},

Unfortunately, 46 it is not uncommon for these tools to disagree with actual preservation project decisions, 47 particularly at the project selection level of pavement management. Ad-hoc preservation project 48 selection procedures may be effective for many highway agencies; however current fiscal issues 49 and pressure from administrators and legislators are forcing agencies to provide justification for 50 the use of funds. This paper offers a new pavement project selection and prioritization method, 51 using the Analytic Hierarchy Process as the multi-criteria decision making platform.

The method was applied to a case study area within Texas and projects 54 suggested by the method matched actual decisions by 75 percent. The ability to capture multiple 55 parameters and determine weights for each parameter based on decision maker input, along with 56 the high level of agreement between the method and actual decisions indicates that the method 57 could be a viable decision support tool that would experience more use at the project selection 58 level. 59 60},

In a recent paper, Hu, Peeta and Chu introduced the interesting problem of determining the smallest subset of links in a traffic network for counting sensor installation, in such a way that it becomes possible to infer the flows on all remaining links. The problem is particularly elegant because of its limited number of assumptions. Unfortunately, path enumeration was required, which – as recognized by the authors – is infeasible for large-scale networks without further simplifying assumptions (that would destroy the assumption-free nature of the problem). In this paper, we present a reformulation of this link observability problem, requiring only node enumeration. Using this node-based approach, we prove a conjecture made by Hu, Peeta and Chu by deriving an explicit relationship between the number of nodes and links in a transportation network, and the minimum number of sensors to install in order to be able to infer all link flows. In addition, we demonstrate how the proposed method can be employed for road networks that already have sensors installed on them. Numerical examples are presented throughout.},

However, dependence on deterministic LCCA raises issues about the accuracy of input information because of the degree of construction price volatility found in the underlying commodities used in pavements. Stochastic LCCA has been shown to produce superior results when used at the new pavement design or network level and is suggested for transportation use by FHWA. However, no project-level tools exist to facilitate use of a stochastic approach to evaluate pavement preservation treatment. This paper proposes a practical stochastic LCCA model on the basis of equivalent uniform annual cost, specifically to compare pavement preservation treatment alternatives. The paper explores statistical LCCA techniques that expose inherent uncertainties to identify and quantify the risk of commodity price volatility. The proposed methodology enhances a pavement engineer's ability to address budget issues, mitigate risk, and justify pavement preservation treatment decisions. Underlying commodity price volatility in pavement treatment costs can be modeled effectively with stochastic LCCA.},

Due to modest changes in both speed and visual search, the installation of an advance sign message tab improved the proportion of drivers who would be able to stop in the event a train was approaching, from 48 percent to 57 percent. The effect of a speed tab was less certain because the results were confounded by an improvement in the road surface at the same time, which likely lead to increased speed. Considering results from all phases, the addition of a warning message would be expected to improve safety at passive crossings if all other conditions remained the same. However, it must be emphasized that this countermeasure is insufficient on its own, given our observations showed that in Phase 3 only 47 percent of drivers could stop in time for a train arriving at the crossing – the majority could not.},

abstract = {Traffic counts are routinely gathered by transportation engineers and planners as they play essential roles in numerous transportation studies. Generally, counts are performed on the road segments that one is interested in, except for high volume freeways for which FHWA recommends using the ramp counting procedure. In this procedure, one essentially estimates what traffic volumes on freeway segments are based on traffic counts on their on-and off-ramps. The key notion is in FHWA's ramp counting procedure is flow conservation. In this paper we demonstrate, via examples, that the ramp counting procedure can be generalized for traffic networks of arbitrary topology. That is, instead of directly counting traffic volumes on all road segments in a transportation network, we demonstrate that it is possible to only count a subset of them. The remaining traffic volumes can then be determined from the counted volumes with the aid of flow conservation. Practically speaking, this procedure has the potential to significantly reduce the amount of resources needed to perform traffic counts.},

abstract = {The solution of the static, deterministic, user equilibrium (UE) traffic assignment problem uniquely determines total link flows but not route flows. In 2010, Bar-Gera proposed a computationally efficient algorithm, Traffic Assignment by Paired Alternative Segments (TAPAS), to determine route flows uniquely by incorporating a behaviorally justifiable condition of proportionality. Although TAPAS has been successfully applied to various scales of transportation networks, detailed solution attributes of the Pairs of Alternative Segments (PASs) that comprise the solutions of the UE model have not been explored. This paper examines the attributes of PASs found by solving the traffic assignment problem with the condition of proportionality for three single-class congestion scenarios for the Chicago regional network. Exploratory, descriptive analyses using graphical and map representations of selected PASs are used to provide a detailed examination of the structure of the route flow solutions yielded by TAPAS. A more detailed understanding of the results from TAPAS will provide transportation planning practitioners with an improved basis for their analyses especially when UE route flow solutions are required.

New planning concepts reducing car dependency will increase senior residents' time on sidewalks. While cities are required by Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) laws to reduce sidewalk hazards, the time and cost of gathering exact data have been a deterrent. The typical sampling of elements such as sidewalks, curb ramps, pedestrian crossings, and obstructions do not provide an adequate understanding of the hazards and barriers throughout a district. In particular, prioritizing the most critical sidewalk hazard locations for city maintenance is not organized and tied to other street maintenance plans. A new and innovative tool, the profiler, which was developed to measure various surface characteristics of roads, bridges, runways and commercial floors, allows 100{\%} sidewalk inventory and converts the data into a city's geographic information system (GIS) system. Knowing exactly the location and severity of sidewalk barriers increases the likelihood that all hazards are addressed, reducing the potential for falls and accidents. This innovative technology is now being tried in five cities. In the future, time and cost savings could be accrued, treating ADA code requirements on a regional rather than a city scale. As cities plan for greater sidewalk use by a new generation of aging residents, they can reduce potential accidents and the possibility of increased litigation.},

Traffic parameters such as walking speed and acceleration are important variables for analyzing pedestrian and bicyclist travel behaviors. Manually counting such data is labor intensive and expensive. To better use the existing surveillance infrastructure, we propose a computer vision based approach using ordinary video cameras for extraction of pedestrian parameters. Moving objects are extracted by Gaussian Mixture Model, and tracked by Kalman Filter. To identify pedestrians and bicycles, Back Propagation Neural Network is employed. Direct Linear Transformation based camera calibrating algorithm is utilized to transform the coordinate in image to real world, which is the basis of statistical analyses. The presented approach is implemented in pedestrian and bicyclist tracking and classification (PBTC) system. Real world videos were used to test the performance of this system, and the results show that about 85{\%} of pedestrians were successfully detected and several traffic parameters were extracted. Although the system is still in experimental stage and needs to be further improved, it has proven its potential usage in traffic engineering practice and research as automated pedestrian data collection tool.},

A web-based survey was conducted to understand the travel patterns of the campus community to draw recommendations to reduce single occupancy vehicle travel to campus. Mode choice and the most important factors affecting it constituted the greatest focus of the survey. The survey included questions about respondents' attitudes towards auto use and the factors that would encourage them to carpool and take transit to campus. Discrete choice models are estimated to analyze the commuters' mode choices to campus. The results show that proximity to bicycle lanes/ trails and bus stops increases the propensity of choosing these modes. Students are more likely to travel by alternative modes than are faculty and staff members, and individuals who are concerned about travel time, flexibility of departure time, safety and the ability to stop on the way to/from campus are more likely to drive alone to campus. Strategies to increase the modal share of alternative modes are presented based on the descriptive findings and the model results. The findings of this study may be used by practitioners and campus transportation planners to better understand the factors that prevent people from choosing alternative transportation modes and evaluate the transportation improvements to be considered for implementation.},

abstract = {Pricing is considered an effective management policy to reduce traffic congestion in transportation networks. In this paper we combine a macroscopic model of traffic congestion in urban networks with an agent-based simulator to study congestion pricing schemes. The macroscopic model, which has been tested with real data in previous studies, represents an accurate and robust approach to model the dynamics of congestion. The agent-based simulator can reproduce the complexity of travel behavior in terms of travelers' choices and heterogeneity. This integrated approach is superior to traditional pricing schemes. On one hand, traffic simulators (including car-following, lane-changing and route choice models) consider travel behavior, i.e. departure time choice, inelastic to the level of congestion. On the other hand, most congestion pricing models utilize supply models insensitive to demand fluctuations and non-stationary conditions. This is not consistent with the physics of traffic and the dynamics of congestion. Furthermore, works that integrate the above features in pricing models are assuming deterministic and homogeneous population characteristics. In this paper, we first demonstrate by case studies in Zurich urban road network, that the output of a agent-based simulator is consistent with the physics of traffic flow dynamics, as defined by a Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD). We then develop and apply a dynamic cordon-based congestion pricing scheme, in which tolls are controlled by an MFD. And we investigate the effectiveness of the proposed pricing scheme. Results show that by applying such a congestion pricing, (i) the savings of travel time at both aggregated and disaggregated level outweigh the costs of tolling, (ii) the congestion inside the cordon area is eased while no extra congestion is generated in the neighbor area outside the cordon, (iii) tolling has stronger impact on leisure-related activities than on work-related activities, as fewer agents who perform work-related activities changed their time plans. Future work can apply the same methodology to other network-based pricing schemes, such as area-based or distance-traveled-based pricing. Equity issues can be investigated more carefully, if provided with data such as income of agents. Value-of-time-dependent pricing schemes then can also be determined. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

Edwards and Fontaine 1 ABSTRACT 1 2 The impact of work zones on mean travel time and travel time reliability has gained increasing 3 attention as agencies focus on performance measurement. Work zone travel time reliability has 4 often been difficult for agencies to quantify due to the time and expense required to collect travel 5 time data. Recently, several private sector companies have begun selling travel time data, 6 creating an opportunity to cost-effectively examine work zone impacts on travel time reliability 7 on a broader basis. 8 9 The Virginia Department of Transportation recently acquired probe vehicle-based travel 10 time data for 2010 from a private sector data provider. These data were used to calculate travel 11 time reliability measures at 15 work zones and examine factors that impacted travel time 12 reliability. Travel time reliability was quantified by using the 95th percentile travel time, buffer 13 index, and planning time index. The work zones saw a statistically significant degradation across 14 all travel time reliability measures as compared to baseline conditions. The mean buffer index, 15 planning time index, and 95 th percentile travel time rate were higher by 48{\%}, 18{\%}, and 16{\%}, 16 respectively. Work zones involving lane closures experienced increases in mean buffer index, 17 planning time index, and 95 th percentile travel time rate of 67{\%}, 23{\%}, and 22{\%}, respectively, 18 despite occurring during off peak periods. Annual average daily traffic per lane and the number 19 of access points per mile were found to have the most obvious relationships with declines in 20 reliability at work zones. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Most existing procedures used for the synthesis of population data are based on the iterative proportional fitting method, in which the number of individuals in each cell of the cross-classification table is estimated. Such a procedure is referred to as the cell-based approach in this study. The approach is based on predefined categories of individuals. Originally, however, these individuals have continuous attributes. Therefore, a different type of categorization would yield a different classification table, which would change the end results of the analysis. In this paper, this phenomenon is referred to as the modifiable attribute cell problem (MACP). It is similar to the modifiable area unit problem that arises when spatial data are aggregated into zones. This paper addresses MACP and proposes a method to determine the best combination of the categories. The solution of MACP is considered to be the minimization of the number of cells in a table with respect to the key output variable that has been defined and used as an evaluation criterion. Because of the computational difficulty resulting from the combination explosion, symbiotic evolution, which is a kind of genetic algorithm, is used.

Median width was found to adversely affect sampling rates, but deployment of two roadside detectors instead of a single median detector resulted in sampling rates similar to those reported for urban freeways.  Because of lower volumes on rural freeways, Bluetooth-based speed estimates are of questionable confidence during overnight hours, but during typical daytime hours the sample sizes obtained provide for high confidence in estimated speeds and travel times.  Thus, Bluetooth data collection is a viable method for data collection on rural freeways.},

abstract = {The assessment of factors influencing people in making their modal choice in favor of bicycles varies significantly depending on the user's experience: a daily user, a recreational user or an infrequent or non-user. A study conducted in Madrid at the main university campus among more than 3,000 people (including students, teachers and non-teaching staff) verified these differences empirically. Overall, frequent users give lesser importance to the barriers identified as crucial by infrequent and non-users. Reversely, a better assessment of the positive characteristics of cycling increases with use: the more cycling is used, the more positive is the perception of cycling. And even more noticeable are the differences that can be observed among the purposes for using bicycles. Those who only cycle for leisure or sports purposes value benefits about a half of what commuting users do. Noteworthy is the difference between occasional users, who cycle only for recreational and sports purposes, compared with those who, without ceasing to be occasional users due to the low frequency of use, cycle for systematic purposes, then commuting on an infrequent basis. The pattern of their ratings is very similar to frequent users, differing markedly from the users for non commuting purposes. Likewise, frequent users perceive other factors as barriers: for example the lack of complementary facilities or theft risk. Based on these results, the paper emphasizes the importance of guiding urban cycling policies toward measures that promote trying out the bicycle in urban environments through programs specifically directed towards recreational and non-users.},

However, to date these approaches have been merely tested on stated choice data which is flexible and cheap. In this study, we empirically investigate the feasibility and validity of non-EUT approaches in a revealed preference (RP) context in which travel time distribution is extracted from observed historical travel time data, and subsequently present systematic comparisons between EUT, weighted utility theory, rank-dependent expected utility theory, and prospect theory (PT). The empirical evidence indicates that each non-EUT model has important behavioural insights to offer, moreover, EUT as well as non-EUT models can be applied to the RP context. However, the EUT and non-EUT model fits are generally similar with only PT providing a marginally improved model fit over EUT. The key findings presented in this study reinforce the importance of exploring non-EUT models within a revealed preference context before they can be applied reliably to modelling risky choices in the real world. {\textcopyright} 2012 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.},

To date, several authors have proposed models for the “transit route network design prob- lem” (TRNDP), and many of them use a transit assignment model as one component. However, not all models have considered the “common lines problem,” which is an essential feature in transit network assignment and is based on the concept that the fastest way to get to a destination is to take the first vehicle arriving among an “attractive” set of lines. Thus, we sought to reveal the features of considering the common lines problem by comparing results with and without considering the problem in a transit assignment model. For comparison, a model similar to a previous one was used, formulated as a bi-level optimisation problem, the upper problem of which is described as a multi-objective problem. As a result, although the solutions with and without considering the common lines showed almost the same Pareto front, we confirmed that a more direct service is provided if the common lines problem is considered whereas a less direct service is provided if it is not. With a small network case study, we found that considering the common lines problem in the TRNDP is important as it allows operators to provide more direct services.},

A new video-based traffic data collection system for multiple vehicle types is developed. By tracking and classifying every passing vehicle under mixed traffic conditions, the type and speed of every passing vehicle are recognised. Finally, the flows and mean speeds of multiple vehicle types are output. A colour image-based adaptive background subtraction is proposed to obtain more accurate vehicle objects, and a series of processes like shadow removal and setting road detection region are used to improve the system robustness. In order to improve the accuracy of vehicle counting, the cross-lane vehicles are detected and repeated counting for one vehicle is avoided. In order to reduce the classification errors, the space ratio of the blob and data fusion are used to reduce the classification errors caused by vehicle occlusions. This system was tested under four different weather conditions. The accuracy of vehicle counting was 97.4{\%} and the error of vehicle classification was 8.3{\%}. The correlation coefficient of speeds detected by this system and radar gun was 0.898 and the mean absolute error of speed detection by this system was only 2.3 km/h.},

The FSC shapes show that advanced power train vehicles are expected to maintain fuel economy (FE) in congestion better than ICE vehicles, and FE can even improve for EV and FCV in freeway congestion. In order to implement these FSC for long-range scenario modeling, a bounded approach is presented which uses a single congestion sensitivity parameter. The results in this paper will assist analysis of the roles that vehicle technology and congestion mitigation can play in reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles.},

For the case 28 study, Maryland Transit Administration (MTA)'s real operation of Dial-a-ride service is introduced 29 and compared with the results of developed heuristic. The whole problem is decomposed into 5 time 30 slots problem to solve it in reasonable time. The 5 time slots is made based on the distributions of 31 request times of demands. The objective function is to minimize the total cost composed of the service 32 provider's cost and the customers' inconvenience cost. 33 For the comparison, the objective function values of the heuristic based on clustering 34 first-routing second (HCR) do not include waiting cost, delay cost, and excess ride cost. The 35 objective function values from HCR are better than those from MTA's operation for all cases. This 36 result shows that our heuristic method can make the real operation better and more efficient. A 37 sensitivity analysis for the parameters that are used in this model is performed with respect to the fixed 38 costs, the routing costs, the waiting cost, the delay cost, and the excess ride cost.

abstract = {This paper outlines and applies a method to estimate freight flow generation and trip generation, with the emphasis on distribution facilities at the regional level. Freight movements are not limited to direct shipments of goods from production locations or major ports to the points of rework or consumption. Distribution facilities generate freight flows themselves, functioning as nodes in supply chain networks. The forecasting of regional freight flows has to overcome some rather serious data shortages. In general, the published statistics do not provide information on underlying transport purpose, while the purpose of transport movement is a crucial variable for the estimation of flow volume and the number of trips. The paper shows that the observed road cargo flow, generated by distribution facilities, is strongly correlated with the employment level in some sectors of the economy. Using transport statistics with extra information on transport purpose, we have found that distribution facilities' freight and trip generation are proportional to the number of employees in some specific economy sectors. The estimation method has been applied at the aggregate commodity flow level and at the level of a single commodity. The added value of the paper is that it shows validity of this simple estimation method. We also define the sector selection criteria for the distribution-related flow and trips. The method allows estimation of the flow and trips generated by distribution facilities for the regions where the data on transport purpose is not available.},

abstract = {In recent years a Clean Trucks Program (CTP) has been enacted at California's San Pedro Bay Ports (SPBP) of Long Beach and Los Angeles, to help address major environmental issues associated with port operations. "Clean trucks" (meeting 2007 model year emission standards) that utilized public funds to replace older, polluting drayage trucks were required to be fitted with GPS units for compliance monitoring. In late 2010, 94{\%} of cargo moves at SPBP were reportedly made by clean trucks. The study reported in this paper is based on a year of such GPS data for a sample that in December, 2010 comprised 545 clean drayage trucks. Drayage trucks carry port cargo (mostly containers) to and from the ports and intermodal rail and transloading facilities (drayage trucks have at least one trip end on port or intermodal rail facility property). An analytical framework is introduced for processing the GPS data from these trucks to both interpret the trip chaining or tour behavior of clean drayage trucks, and to prepare sufficient tour data for clean truck modeling at the SPBP. It is found that SPBP clean trucks make an average of 3.1-3.9 stops per tour, depending on the open or closed nature of the tour, fuel type and monthly cargo type. Furthermore, newer diesel trucks tend to travel further and longer than liquefied natural gas (LNG) trucks, and monthly cargo volume changes have an effect on clean truck tour behaviors. An important finding is that clean trucks at the SPBP rely on daily-based operations and one day of travel behavior is not necessarily representative of any other day. These insights into clean truck behavior at the SPBP potentially provide more accurate depictions of current conditions and better projections of future conditions for freight related improvement plans and models.},

In fact, MR{\&}R activities on road networks can cause significant delays for users, due to congestion, detours, etc. The proposed bottom-up methodology investigates the significance of the network configuration within a multi-objective decision-making framework, wherein capacity losses due to construction activities are subjected to an agency-defined network capacity threshold.

Net DACVMT changes were distinguished further by respondents who made overall positive changes and overall negative changes. During the target week, the total Fix-related VMT reduction for the entire affected sample (N = 6,185) was estimated to be between 5.36{\%} and 5.48{\%}. Reductions from potentially permanent sources led to an estimated 4.08{\%} to 4.21{\%} reduction, and those from definitely temporary sources led to a 1.27{\%} reduction. Mode shifts reduced DACVMT between 3.04{\%} and 3.17{\%} (the net of a 0.42{\%} increase by 32 respondents and a 3.46{\%} to 3.59{\%} decrease by 257 respondents; seven respondents made drive alone related mode shifts that resulted in no net DACVMT change). Increased TC and CWW engagement contributed additional 0.71{\%} and 0.33{\%} reductions, respectively. PL time and DFR reduced DACVMT by 0.15{\%} and 1.12{\%}, respectively.},

abstract = {14 15 According to the standard textbook analysis, drivers as a group will be worse off with 16 congestion charging if not compensated by revenues. This result is confirmed by an 17 analysis of the Stockholm congestion charging scheme using a static model with 18 homogenous users. However, both this static model and the standard textbook analysis 19 omit three important factors: taste heterogeneity, effects of charges on the larger network 20 arising from less blocking back of upstream links and behavioural adjustments in the 21 temporal dimensions. Taking account of these factors, using a dynamic model with 22 heterogeneous users in a large-scale network, we find that drivers as a group benefit 23 directly from the charging scheme in Stockholm. This paper investigates the importance 24 of the three factors omitted in the standard textbook and the static model analysis in the 25 Stockholm case, finding that all three add significantly to the benefit of the charges.},

Traffic and weather conditions at the occurrence of a primary incident are explicitly considered. Two measures to extract variable significance are introduced: mutual information and partial derivatives. The proposed approach is also compared to other classical statistical approaches of the Logit family. Results suggest that traffic speed, duration of the primary accident, hourly volume, rainfall intensity, and number of vehicles involved in the primary accident are the top five factors associated with secondary accident likelihood. However, changes in traffic speed and volume, number of vehicles involved, blocked lanes, and percentage of trucks and upstream geometry also significantly influence the probability of having a secondary incident. Finally, the incident management implications of the proposed modeling approach are discussed.},

Data for U.S. urbanized areas are analyzed within a dynamic panel vector auto- regression model to test whether the effects of transportation-induced economic growth and travel demand can be empirically validated. The results show that investment in road capacity increases average economic growth while simultaneously inducing additional growth in traffic (vehicle miles traveled). Indeed, a general failure of investment to alleviate levels of congestion is found; this finding suggests that pro- ductivity shifts are brought about through a net increase in the scale of travel and associated interactions rather than improved network performance as measured by travel times. The evidence also shows that congestion forms part of the decision criterion used to allocate invest- ments in road capacity. If improvements in network performance are to be achieved in a climate of travel demand growth, demand management techniques may be more effective than capacity expansion.},

Therefore, simulation tools users now ask to research a validated 3 methodology guaranteeing that simulation results are trustable. This paper contributes to identify 4 and correct one of the possible lacks of detailed calibration and validation process of car-following 5 models, the data errors of individual trajectory data. Some studies addressed the problem of filtering 6 trajectory data. We propose in this paper a new filtering technique to reduce the measurement 7 errors on trajectories, speed profiles and acceleration profiles. This technique is based on I-splines; 8 some piecewise polynomials. Then we compare our proposal with a set of filtering technique found 9 in the literature. We use a complete trajectory dataset available within the NGSIM program. As a 10 quality indicator of the various filtering techniques we use velocity distribution, acceleration 11 distribution and jerk analysis for the whole dataset. We also suggest analyzing acceleration standard 12 deviation for each trajectory of the dataset. 13 The main findings are as follows: (1) among the methods compared within this work, the I-splines 14 methods with the action points reduces the most the spikes in the velocity distribution; (2) moreover 15 the I-splines method reduces also the most the percentage of jerk values higher than 15 m/s 3 and the 16 percentage of one-second window with more than one sign inversion of the jerk; (3) but in some 17 cases, this method increases the acceleration variability of smoothed trajectories. 18 19 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Distance between on-ramp and off-ramp is relatively shorter compared with that in developed countries (normally longer than 1000 m), and off-ramps are usually connected with urban streets and intersections. Thus successful ramp control strategies used in Europe or U.S. may not be suitable in China. This paper first analyzes traffic flow characteristics at representative “bottlenecks” in Beijing urban expressways. Efforts are devoted to improve the capability of traffic simulation platform to simulate detailed traffic behaviours by calibrating simulation model parameters. Efficiencies of different signal control strategies in road network involving on-ramp, off-ramp, adjacent streets and intersections are compared. Results indicate that combing adaptive ramp control with synchronization signal control strategies is an effective way to enhance road capacity and alleviate congestions in urban expressways. },

Moreover, there is a lack of computational tools for the microscopic simulation of urban interactions between drivers and pedestrians. Feeling that road crossing is currently the main problem with pedestrian behavioural models, we conducted a laboratory experiment in order to understand to what extend the pedestrian's visual environment contribute to the crossing decision in order to improve a computational street crossing model. In the experiment, 36 12-second-video clips were presented to 32 participants, in conditions close to the crossing situation (scale 1, 160° of angle displayed on 6 large screens). The subjects were asked if they would have cross the street at the end of each clip. Two hypotheses were under investigation. The first one focuses on the objective description of the road crossing environment in terms of visual cues relevant for the crossing decision (traffic light, approaching vehicles, other pedestrians, etc.). The subject's answers were compared to the coding of the visual environment. The second hypothesis focuses on the subject's own explanations, about their motivations for crossing / not crossing. In both cases, the statistical analysis (logistic regressions) suggests that the crossing decision does not use the same visual cues depending of the presence/absence of traffic lights. The main result of this study is that the relevant visual cues are not the same at the signalized and at the unsignalized crossing, which leads to build separate quantitative models.},

In Japan, bicycles are often used either as the main transportation mode 3 or as part of a multimodal journey. On the contrary, Japanese transportation policies and 4 strategies towards cycling are somewhat limited. Accordingly, this paper focuses on the 5 reasons that motivate people to cycle, even though the cycling system is yet to achieve higher 6 levels of service. Results of behavioral and statistical analyses are discussed with a focus on 7 unimodal commuting trips. In the behavioral analysis, commuters' views on cycling are 8 presented. In the statistical analysis, discrete choice models are estimated to assess factors 9 with strong influence on cycling. The findings of the models suggest that single household 10 type influences the choice of non-motorized modes and that having a car is not very 11 significant when choosing to cycle. People who cycle regularly to perform other activities 12 and those who practice physical exercises regularly are more likely to commute by bicycle. 13 The possibility of sharing sidewalk space with pedestrians appears to have a strong positive 14 impact on cycling. In addition, longer distances to public transport stations motivate the use 15 of bicycle in multimodal journeys. This paper contributes to further understanding active 16 cyclists' behavior. It also produces insightful information that can be used by transport 17 planners and government bodies in Japan and elsewhere when planning for more cycling-18 friendly cities.},

Existing infrastructure or rolling stock can be improved in various 3 ways to allow for increasing speeds and reducing travel time along a route. Each track section 4 has a characteristic set of opportunities for increasing speed and their corresponding effect on 5 travel time reduction, along with an associated set of costs. Similarly, each type of rolling stock 6 has the potential to increase operational speed and reduce travel time, corresponding to a specific 7 price tag. This research focuses on developing a decision support process using mathematical 8 programming to identify the most cost-effective strategy for reducing corridor travel time given a 9 prescribed performance goal and budget. This optimization process was implemented in a 10 railway corridor in Taiwan, and the result shows that the best strategy is a combination of 11 infrastructure upgrade and rolling stock acquisition. Using this tool can help states and railway 12 agencies simultaneously maximize capital investment returns and maintain reliable services for 13 their customers.},

Specifically, we investigate how and why consumers may transition toward adopting and using new pro-environmental technologies (PETs), namely electric vehicles, solar panels, and a green electricity program. We build a conceptual framework from lifestyle theory, where lifestyle is defined as a grouping of related practices that can reflect and inform the consumer's self-concept (or identity). We apply this framework using a novel quantitative survey method, implemented with a representative sample of 711 San Diego households. Through factor analysis, we identify engagement in pro-environmental practices as independent of engagement in other lifestyle types. We then group respondents into five clusters based on lifestyle engagement, attitudes and openness to lifestyle change (liminality). The three clusters with green attitudes ("greens") vary substantially by interest in PETs. "Engaged" and "aspiring" greens are attracted to all three PETs, while "low-tech" greens report mild interest in green electricity only. Non-green "techies" only report interest in solar panels, while "traditionalists" report uniformly low PET interest. Results demonstrate the relevance of lifestyle theory, and provide a unique, empirical application that can improve understandings of opportunities and barriers to sustainable consumption. ?? 2012 Elsevier B.V.},

While mitigation efforts are essential to slowing the threat of climate change, adaptation practices to build resilience and protection from impacts should be accelerated. Implementing designs that are responsive to climate change-induced factors to reduce impacts through transportation adaptation practice is fundamental to regional transportation planning in Delaware. Potential climate change impacts specific to the state of Delaware include increases in heat waves and very hot days, rising sea level and increases in intense precipitation events. This study explores methods for analyzing potential climate change impacts such as sea level rise on transportation infrastructure in Delaware, specifically the I-95 corridor. These methods are applied in the application of a decision support tool for transportation adaptation titled, Climate Change Adaptation Tool for Transportation: Mid-Atlantic. A case study of the tool is implemented at the regional level to the Wilmington Area Planning Council (WILMAPCO).

ETSs from California, Florida, Kentucky, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington were evaluated. The quantitative decision-making framework consists of four steps: (a) conduct interviews to identify the features that the Colorado DOT prefers to have in its ETS, (b) assign weights to those features to establish their importance relative to each other on the basis of Colorado DOT preferences by using the analytic hierarchy process, (c) collect data from the above-mentioned eight state DOTs through surveys to identify which features their ETSs have, and (d) perform a quantitative evaluation of those ETSs with their respective weights according to Colorado DOT preferences. Application of this framework identified the ETSs that are most closely correlated with Colorado DOT preferences and resulted in a number of recommendations to the Colorado DOT.

abstract = {The provision of sufficient parking for new development in urban areas often is a subject of debate for developers, city agencies, businesses, and the general public, given the differing priorities of each group. The challenge is to create walkable, transit-supportive neighborhoods with minimized parking and traffic impacts that also ensure the marketability of new development. To address that goal, several cities have enacted policies and programs in recent years to encourage carsharing and unbundled parking. Although the independent effects of carsharing and unbundled parking have been studied, research is lacking on the joint effects on parking demand and vehicle use. This paper discusses the findings of a study conducted in 2010 that surveyed residents of 13 buildings in downtown San Francisco, California, to determine any differences between those residents of buildings that provided both carsharing and unbundled parking and those who lived in buildings that offered neither. The differences were examined in terms of vehicle ownership, commute patterns, and carshare vehicle use. San Francisco was selected because of its relatively large number of residential developments that provided on-site carshare vehicles and unbundled parking. These facilities were provided, in part, in response to recent, local ordinances that required new residential and commercial developments to unbundle parking and to host carshare vehicles. The findings of this study suggested that the presence of both carsharing and unbundled parking in residential developments had a significant impact on vehicle ownership and that carshare members had significantly lower levels of vehicle ownership and drive-alone rates than nonmembers did.},

abstract = {Multimodal trips, or trips that use more than one means of transportation, have historically been underrepresented in travel surveying efforts. This lack of consideration has implications for widely accepted statistics for nonmotorized travel behavior (walking, bicycling, etc.) and affects researchers and professionals in travel modeling, urban planning, public health, and urban design. However, interest in the "last mile" connections to transit, aggregate health impacts of short walking trips, and emphasis on local connectivity require more detailed information on these typically short but important stages of travel. This study reviews approaches to multimodal travel behavior in travel surveys, analyzes their implications, and makes recommendations to improve data collection for the purpose of improved representation of multimodal travel. Particular attention is given to transit access and egress trip segments, nonmotorized travel, use of technology in travel surveys, reporting data, and dissemination of the travel survey beyond the travel forecasting community.},

abstract = {The Houston-Galveston region has experienced several major hurricanes in recent years. During the evacuation for Hurricane Rita in 2005, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) decided to implement contraflow operations on I-45 to relieve massive evacuee congestion departing Houston to the north. The decision to implement contraflow was a difficult one, as it involved multiple jurisdictions and required extensive coordination of manpower and resources from various entities. After the Hurricane Rita experience, TxDOT implemented a new strategy, referred to as " evaculane, " where evacuation traffic can utilize the outside paved shoulder as a traveling lane when an evacuation is underway and evaculane signing beacons are activated. The objective of this strategy is to increase capacity along key evacuation routes while avoiding the need for full-scale contraflow operation whenever possible. The evaculane on I-10 was successfully put into use during the Hurricane Ike evacuation in 2008. With the widening and completion of evaculanes on I-10 and US 290 as well as a partial contraflow plan for the I-45 corridor, the TxDOT sponsored a study to develop a decision support tool to help determine if these strategies would adequately handle the evacuation demand for various Houston-Galveston region evacuation scenarios. This paper describes the quantitative assessment of the performance of alternative evacuation strategies using a dynamic traffic assignment model, DynusT. The evaluation results indicated the evaculane on I-10 and US-290 can sufficiently handle high evacuation demand on both routes without contraflow operation. In addition, a partial contraflow plan for I-45 was shown to provide sufficient capacity to handle high evacuation demand in lieu of full-scale contraflow operation.},

These performance measures are essential for determining traffic conditions and improving signal control strategies in real-time. The estimation methods are tested with two datasets comprising of various traffic conditions: undersaturated and oversaturated and the minimum penetration rate requirements for accurate MOE estimates are determined. These reveal that for oversaturated conditions the required penetration rates are smaller than those for undersaturated. Finally, an application of the queue length estimation as a trigger for alternative real-time control strategies is presented. The developed method determines the last observed vehicle distance threshold that activates the alternative signal plan as a function of the Connected Vehicle penetration rate.},

ABSTRACT The safety of crossing guards is important as they are responsible for the safe and efficient crossing of school children. Through discussions, researchers found that crossing guards were very interested in using stop paddles with embedded lights to improve their conspicuity. However, researchers were concerned that some of the embedded light configurations may negatively impact a motorist's ability to recognize the three critical characteristics that define a stop sign: red background color, octagon shape, and white STOP legend. Thus, researchers decided to conduct a closed-course human factors study to assess the effectiveness of five stop paddles with embedded lights compared to a standard, un-lit stop paddle. Based on the findings, researchers recommended the use of the following stop paddles to improve the conspicuity of crossing guards without negatively impacting a motorist's ability to recognize the three critical characteristics of a stop sign: • a stop paddle containing flashing red lights arranged in an octagonal pattern at the eight corners of the paddle; • a stop paddle containing a series of steady-burn red lights around the border arranged such that the lights clearly convey the octagonal shape of the paddle; and • a stop paddle containing a series of flashing red lights around the border arranged such that the lights clearly convey the octagonal shape of the paddle. Since the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices does not currently address steady-burn lights, agencies should contact the Federal Highway Administration before using a stop paddle with a steady-burn light configuration.

It has improved travel 8 times for bus riders and drivers in the corridor by 29{\%} and 20{\%} respectively for an aggregate 9 annual timesaving of 52 million hours, a value of 158 million Yuan. The system has also improved 10 the efficiency of the city's bus operations. After an initial capital investment of 950 million Yuan 11 for BRT stations and lanes, the system is reducing annual operating costs by over 90 million Yuan. 12 The city leveraged the construction of the corridor to develop an integrated multi-modal system 13 with bicycle infrastructure and direct connections to several Metro stations. 14 The system has helped improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. ITDP estimates 15 that Guangzhou's BRT will reduce an average of 86,000 tons of CO 2 annually over its first decade 16 (for a yearly CER value of 19 million Yuan), and 4 tons of particulate matter emissions that cause 17 respiratory illness. 18 The Guangzhou BRT is a model of highly cost-effective urban transport that should be employed 19 as more cities pursue local and global environmental sustainability.},

abstract = {End of trip facilities can be a barrier which limits the potential of the bicycle as a commuter transport mode. In recent years there has been increasing interest in development of large cycle centers or bicycle arrival stations which provide secure bicycle storage, changing rooms, showers, lockers and repair facilities. These facilities are often provided in, or near to, the Central Business District (CBD) and typically operate on a user-pays basis. This paper reports the results of an evaluation of a bicycle arrival station built on suburban university campus about 20 km from the CBD in Melbourne, Australia. Use of this un-staffed facility, which provides secure parking for 100 bicycles, is offered free of charge to staff and students. Following the opening of the facility in late 2010, an evaluation was undertaken in 2011 to gauge user satisfaction with the facility and assess its impact on travel behaviour. Results from an on-line questionnaire of registered users, and ID card entry data, are used in the analysis reported in the paper. While users where generally satisfied with many features of the facility, concerns emerged over the adequacy of the towel drying facilities, the availability of lockers and the management of the locker facilities. Nearly 50{\%} of the users indicated that they had switched from commuting by car to the bicycle as a result of access to the facility. As a result of the high mode switch from private vehicles, the estimated reduction in annual motor vehicle kilometres travelled (VKT), at nearly 86,000 km, is larger than that reported for a larger CBD based facility located in another Australian capital city. These encouraging results suggest that provision of adequate end of trip facilities can stimulate bicycle commuting in suburban activity centers as well as in the CBD.},

The primary objective of this paper is to share valuable information from a unique survey of people with disabilities who were actively searching for employment in New Jersey. The paper examines the role of public transportation in providing job access to people with disabilities and provides information and insights on the availability, use, needs, barriers, and perceptions of the survey respondents about different public transit modes. The paper also discusses the implications for agencies that provide transportation for people with human services needs. Research shows that despite the frequent use of public transportation by job-seeking people with disabilities, many of them are dissatisfied with public transportation. Although satisfaction with vehicle equipment compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act seems high, many individuals are dissatisfied with the level of transit service and environmental barriers between homes and transit stations and stops. It can be inferred from the results that a multitude of strategies will be needed to address the travel needs and barriers of job-seeking people with disabilities in the state. In addition to providing assistance with transportation for people with human services needs and providing insights to vocational rehabilitation counselors, the study will serve as a means for laying the framework for more rigorous research on the transportation needs and barriers of people with disabilities.},

This was done in an effort to improve the evaluation and use of pavement condition data in pavement rehabilitation and design decisions. More specifically, the project was intended to develop and document a mechanism to include both ride and structural adequacy values within the context of current network-level PMS practices for highway agency implementation to ensure smooth pavements that are also structurally adequate. Towards the accomplishment of the project objective, two major activities were carried out: (1) a literature search to gather, review and synthesize available information on relating ride quality and structural adequacy, and (2) a review and assessment of data from the LTPP program to determine if such a relationship exists. This paper details those two activities as well as their major findings, observations and conclusions; a viable relationship could not be identified.},

Responses were received from 25,346 employees 8 and extrapolated for all full-time and part-time employees throughout the year. The analysis used 9 a method developed by the Department of Energy. It is estimated that during fiscal year 2010, 10 employees of the Department of the Interior commuted nearly 630 million miles, with 11 greenhouse gas emissions of 225,748 metric tons. This paper reviews existing research on 12 policies and programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and discusses the feasibility of 13 various strategies based on the survey responses. The discussion can be useful to other federal 14 agencies or any organization seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from employee 15 commuting. 16},

This research examines the efficacy of adopting transportation 5 board games as a tool in graduate-level transportation planning and transportation 6 economics classes at the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Min-7 nesota from 2008 to 2011. In these classes, a weekday night was scheduled for playing 8 transportation board games. Students were asked to evaluate the effectiveness of the 9 games on their learning and to write self-reflective essays about their findings. The 10 post-game survey revealed that their understanding of the planning process, network 11 deployment, and practical issues, and their ability to form opinion about transporta-12 tion planning has been improved. Their essays on the game economy and its im-13 plications on planning further validated that their understanding derived from this 14 game process has met the pedagogical goals. Our analysis shows that students who 15 are visual, sensing, active, or sequential, all else equal, tend to learn more effectively 16 through this approach than those who are not. Overall, this research suggests that 17 properly incorporating board games into the curriculum can enhance students' learn-18 ing in transportation planning.},

abstract = {1 The measurement of travel time reliability is of increasing importance as agencies seek to better understand the 2 performance of their facilities and communicate trip expectations to the traveling public. Recent research suggests 3 that modeling historical travel times with multistate distributions can add value to the reliability monitoring process 4 by linking travel times with the underlying traffic state. While this research demonstrated the feasibility of breaking 5 down travel time distributions into different operational states, it did not evaluate the causal factors of the states. 6 Providing a way for agencies to link the travel time states that their facilities experience with the factors that cause 7 them, such as incidents or special events, would allow them to better predict travel times when these events occur in 8 real-time, as well as develop targeted projects to improve reliability over the long-term. 9 This paper extends upon existing reliability modeling in three ways. Firstly, where past research has used 10 bimodal distributions to model the two primary operating regimes (free-flow and congested), this paper presents a 11 methodology for determining the optimal number of states for modeling data, to ensure that the distinct impacts of 12 non-recurrent congestion events are captured. Secondly, it presents an easily implementable process for determining 13 when and how the different sources of non-recurrent congestion influence the travel time state and its variability. 14 Lastly, by developing multistate models for aggregate travel times, it proves that a methodology originally 15 developed to model individual vehicle trips can be applied to a broader array of data sets. 16 17},

Based on 6 29 months of time series data, the introduction of carpool charges had a stronger impact on traffic 7 volumes than peak-period pricing of regular traffic. The estimated short-term elasticity of around -0.30 8 suggests significant numbers of rush-hour carpoolers forewent travel, switched routes, shifted to transit, 9 or opted to drive alone. Over half of the loss in carpool traffic was estimated to be attributable to the toll 10 increase, a far stronger influence than factors like rising gasoline prices and unemployment. The 11 estimated elasticity of regular traffic in response to variable pricing was -0.23, indicating peak-period 12 motorists were fairly price-insensitive, reflecting the non-discretionary nature of many rush-hour 13 journeys.

This research surveyed transportation professionals to identify the barriers inhibiting the implementation of promising UIIDs and to identify solutions. Engineers believe that the public's main concerns are driver confusion and fear of the unknown. Survey results highlight education as important, and that public opinion generally improves once an UIID is constructed. Professionals and politicians want proof that a design will work and are reluctant to try nonstandard designs. An important political consideration is cost, but the life cycle cost can be competitive. We need guidelines to assist designers, increased focus on alternatives analysis, and inclusion of UIIDs in planning. This will make the designs more familiar to the public and decrease opposition.},

Transport Policy is the second largest 7 source but transit made up 58{\%} of its publications. 8 The majority of research papers in transit concern bus, rail, or mass transit.

Consumption of research content by mode is highest for 11 bus rapid transit followed by light rail/tram and bicycle/ pedestrian themed papers.

More recently, the public health benefit of a physically active population, including a 4 population that walks more often, has become another reason to encourage walking. Amongst 5 all of this excitement about walking, there has so far been little exploration of the role walking 6 plays in people's lives and cities' welfare. One little understood aspect of walking is its appeal 7 beyond simple " derived demand " travel choice frameworks. Though we might intuitively know 8 that people walk for more than just to get from A to B, there's been little to explain what people 9 gain from walking beyond its potential health benefit. An investigation of pedestrian behavior 10 using the 2009 National Household Travel Survey suggests that the reasons that people choose to 11 walk vary considerably across place and class, and that walking in urban areas may best be 12 explained by a dual conceptualization of walking as the mode of last resort and a highly-prized 13 urban amenity. This seemingly self-contradictory dual role suggests that policies that want to 14 encourage walking across a broad swath of the population will need to overcome barriers rooted 15 in everyday lifestyles just as much as in the quality of the built environment.},

This paper proposes and demonstrates a method by which these archived data can be used to estimate the mean and variance of transit vehicle delays caused by signalized and unsignalized intersections as well as the horizontal extent of the queue. These quantitative measures are of particular value for identifying intersections at which transit priority measures would be most useful. The proposed method is directly applicable to intersections at which there are no nearby transit stops or intersections at which there are far-side stops. The method can be applied to intersections with near-side stops, but will under-estimate the transit vehicle delays.

Liao 2 ABSTRACT 1 As part of the Urban Partnership Agreement (UPA) in Minnesota, Transit Signal Priority (TSP) 2 was implemented on 27 signalized intersections along Central Avenue from north Minneapolis to 3 I-694. Transit service performance before and after the TSP deployment was studied to evaluate 4 the performance and benefit. As a result of the TSP deployment, bus schedule was reduced by 5 two minutes to take full advantage of the conditional signal priority strategy. A wireless-based 6 TSP algorithm previously developed by the author was installed and deployed on four buses to 7 validate the algorithm and evaluate performance. This wireless TSP strategy considers bus 8 location, speed and schedule adherence for priority request. A customized onboard embedded 9 system, namely UMN TSP, was also developed to interface with radio hardware and bypass the 10 existing onboard TSP algorithm. The objective is to validate the UMN TSP algorithm and 11 compare its performance with existing system by taking advantage of the already instrumented 12 onboard equipment and roadside infrastructure. Buses equipped with UMN TSP system 13 communicates with intersection signal controllers when they are approaching and ready to pass 14 though a signalized intersection. Link travel time and Time Point (TP) time on the TSP-equipped 15 route segments were compared. Testing results indicated that the existing TSP implementation 16 improves bus travel time by about 4-6{\%}. The UMN TSP algorithm gains additional 3{\~{}}6{\%} of 17 travel time reduction as compared to other buses operating on the same route during a two-week 18 test period.},

abstract = {The use of variable speed limit (VSL) control along freeways in an effort to improve bottleneck traffic flow is a technique that has been around for some time. In this paper, the authors propose a simple yet very efficient VSL control model using the cell transmission model (CTM). Two modifications of the fundamental diagram (FD) of the CTM are proposed. The first permits one to model active bottleneck cell in which there is a capacity drop once feeding flow exceeds its capacity. The second modification permits variable free flow speeds for the cells operated with VSL control. In order to allow these modifications, the local demand-supply approach is adopted to change the boundary condition of the CTM, and then the traffic density is predicted in the freeway cells. Speed dynamics is derived from a piecewise linear FD. As part of the VSL control algorithm, the modified CTM is implemented in the freeway corridor Whitemud Drive, Edmonton with the model predictive control (MPC) approach. In order to update the storage capacity of freeway cells, the authors have developed and implemented a time-space discrete queue estimation model during VSL control. The analysis is carried out in a micro-simulation model, VISSIM, within a scenario in which shock waves are present. This simulation study reveals that, in terms of traffic mobility, VSL is mostly effective during congestion periods. Specifically, for the studied corridor, improvements to Total Travel Time (TTT), Total Travel Distance (TTD), and flow were around 15.0{\%}, 6.0{\%}, and 7.0{\%}, respectively.

abstract = {Transit Signal Priority (TSP) is a cost effective strategy for improving the movement of transit vehicles, such as Light Rail Transit (LRT), buses or streetcars, through controlled intersections. Application of TSP strategies improves the reliability and quality of service for transit vehicles, with less disruption to normal traffic. City of Edmonton in Canada has recently extended the LRT system, most of which run through at grade intersections. LRT is currently operating under preemption which is causing significant delay to other traffic. The problem is more pronounced during peak hours when the frequency of LRT is increased to 5 minutes in both directions. This has led to dissatisfaction among the motorists along the corridor. In this paper, we have analyzed different TSP strategies for improving the performance of the LRT corridor. VISSIM, a micro-simulation tool with its Ring Barrier Controller (RBC) emulator is used to implement the strategies at a major intersection during peak hours. Field data for both AM and PM peak hours were collected at four intersections along the corridor for the calibration of the VISSIM model. The three TSP strategies explored in this paper are (a) Simple LRT preemption (b) LRT prediction and preemption, and (c) LRT prediction and preemption together with transit bus priority. Each strategy is evaluated by comparing the performance measures. It is found from the results that the strategy (b), where LRT arrival time is predicted to provide LRT preemption, yields the highest improvement in the corridor performance.

abstract = {Recent advances in the probe vehicle deployment offer an innovative prospect for research in arterial travel time estimation. Specifically, we focus on the estimation of probability distribution of arterial route travel time, which contains more information regarding arterial performance measurements and travel time reliability. One of the fundamental contributions of this work is the integration of travel time correlation of route's successive links within the methodology. In the proposed technique, given probe vehicles travel times of the traversing links, a two-dimensional (2D) diagram is established with data points representing travel times of a probe vehicle crossing two consecutive links. A heuristic grid clustering method is developed to cluster each 2D diagram to rectangular sub spaces (states) with regard to travel time homogeneity. By applying a Markov chain procedure, we integrate the correlation between states of 2D diagrams for successive links. We then compute the transition probabilities and link partial travel time distributions to obtain the arterial route travel time distribution. The procedure with various probe vehicle sample sizes is tested on two study sites with time dependent conditions, with field measurements and simulated data. The results are very close to the Markov chain procedure and more accurate once compared to the convolution of links travel time distributions for different levels of congestion, even for small penetration rates of probe vehicles. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {1 Efforts in estimating emissions by an integration of traffic simulation models and 2 emission models have become a fast-evolving research area. However, due to the lack 3 of effective methods and indicators to characterize traffic behaviors, the estimation 4 accuracy of emissions by such an approach has not been effectively verified and/or 5 evaluated. In this context, this paper is intended to study the applicability of traffic 6 micro-simulation models in vehicle emission estimations based on the explanatory 7 parameter of vehicle emissions -vehicle specific power (VSP) distribution. By 8 analyzing massive real-world and simulated vehicle activity data, it was found that the 9 results from the traffic simulation cannot represent the real-world driving behaviors 10 for emission estimations. The simulated VSP distribution led to errors that are as 11 high as 82.8{\%}, 53.6{\%}, and 29.6{\%} for NOx, HC, and CO emissions respectively. 12 Then, a sensitivity analysis of 16 adjustments on 8 parameters of simulation models 13 was conducted to determine their effects on simulated VSP distributions. It was 14 illustrated that, systematic errors exist in using traffic simulation models to represent 15 second-by-second driving behaviors. The errors could not be reduced by the process 16 of parameter calibration on the simulation model. This study concluded that the 17 traditional approach of integrating traffic simulation models with emission models 18 was not applicable for vehicle emission estimations. Primary reasons causing the 19 errors need to be further investigated from the internal mechanism of sub-models of 20 micro-simulation. Based on these findings, several recommendations were proposed 21 for future studies. 22 23},

abstract = {This study analyzed and modeled the days of week variation of motor vehicle collision frequencies for the City of Edmonton, Canada, for a period of seven years (2003-2009). First, the study developed collision prediction models (CPMs) using the generalized linear modeling approach with a negative binomial (NB) error structure. These NB CPMs established a relationship between daily collision frequency and two weather related collision contributing factors, namely number of daylight hours, and number of snowfall hours. Daily collision frequency was found to be negatively associated with number of daylight hours. However, number of snowfall hours showed a positive correlation with collision frequency. Consistent spikes in collision frequency were also observed on Friday compared to other days of week. Weekend (Saturday and Sunday) and holiday showed less collision frequencies compared to Wednesday. However, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday were not significantly different from Wednesday with respect to collision occurrences. Next, the study developed a multinomial logistic (MNL) model to estimate the conditional probability of different age and gender categories of drivers involved in collision for each day of week considering collision had happened. The MNL model showed that male drivers were more likely to be involved in collisions on weekdays except Thursday, weekend, and holiday. Besides, drivers aged below 20 are the most vulnerable group during Friday-Sunday, weekend, and were followed by drivers aged between 20-30 and 30-40, respectively. On Tuesday and Thursday, drivers aged between 40-50 were least likely to be involved in collision with respect to drivers aged 60 and above.},

abstract = {1 A slip lane facilitates right-turning traffic flow, reduces approach delay, and reduces conflict points within 2 a roundabout. In this paper, the delay performance of a single-lane roundabout with an adjacent slip lane 3 is modeled using the VISSIM microsimulation tool for three slip lane exit types (free-flow, yield, and 4 stop) and the results are compared to a roundabout having no slip lane. The VISSIM assessment 5 considers four different experimental traffic percentage turning volume distributions as balanced flow 6 scenarios (total traffic flow into and out of every roundabout approach is the same). Simulated slip lane 7 right-turning traffic volumes range from 50 to 500 vehicles per hour and four pedestrian volume levels 8 range from 0 to 100 pedestrians per hour. VISSIM results confirm that average delays in a roundabout 9 with a slip lane are a function of circulating conflict volumes and are related exponentially to slip lane 10 volumes regardless of the slip lane exit type. Results also indicate that a free-flow slip lane exit type best 11 reduces total average delay in the roundabout and in the slip lane itself. Both yield and stop slip lane exit 12 types also reduce roundabout total average delay but to a lesser degree. Finally, at a higher traffic 13 volume, a free-flow slip lane exit type can increase roundabout delay from 6.6 to 28.1 sec/vehicle if 14 drivers must yield the right-of-way to high pedestrian traffic (100 pedestrian /hour) crossing a free-flow 15 slip lane (priority rule).},

PEV batteries repurposed 21 into distributed electrical storage appliances (DESAs) might provide valuable services to electricity customers, 22 utilities, and regional grid operators alike, improving grid operation, helping to defer costly upgrades, and 23 supporting the penetration and profitability of intermittent renewable energy. 24 The research advances methods for analyzing combined vehicular and post-vehicular value and uses new 25 and increasingly sophisticated inputs, including specific PEV characterizations and value for 19 grid applications. It 26 finds positive but sometimes modest potential benefits. Bounding scenarios all show battery-lease payment 27 reductions. For the " Chevy Volt " -based example, which exhibited a 22{\%} reduction in the base case, the bounding 28 scenarios ranged from 1{\%} to 32{\%}. Monte Carlo analysis indicates the point estimates developed might need 29 downward adjustment to account for uncertainty, possibly negating second-life benefit. 30 The analysis indicates that, if valuable regulation revenues are hotly contested and provide limited impetus 31 to DESA commercialization, value from multiple applications will be necessary to support profitability. This makes 32 the artful combination of services a critical uncertainty. One previously identified multi-application combination 33 related to servicing local A/C loads was examined as the base case and might be attractive. Another important 34 uncertainty is the cost of power-conditioning requirements, which must also be optimized with specific combined 35 load profiles and/or reduced, e.g., through coupling DESAs with local photovoltaics. 36 37 Keywords: plug-in hybrid, PHV, PHEV, electric vehicle, EV, electric fuel, e-fuel, plug-in electric vehicle, PEV, 38 battery cost, battery lease, energy storage, repurposing, secondary use, second life, ancillary services, regulation, 39 distributed energy storage, lithium-ion batteries 40 41 42},

abstract = {Estimating and analyzing traffic conditions on large arterial networks is an inherently difficult task. The first goal of this article is to demonstrate how arterial traffic conditions can be estimated using sparsely sampled GPS probe vehicle data provided by a small percentage of vehicles. Traffic signals, stop signs, and other flow inhibitors make estimating arterial traffic conditions significantly more difficult than estimating highway traffic conditions. To address these challenges, we propose a statistical modeling framework that leverages a large historical database and relies on the fact that traffic conditions tend to follow distinct patterns over the course of a week. This model is operational in North California, as part of the Mobile Millennium traffic estimation platform. The second goal of the article is to provide a global network-level analysis of traffic patterns using matrix factorization and clustering methods. These techniques allow us to characterize spatial traffic patterns in the network and to analyze traffic dynamics at a network scale. We identify traffic patterns that indicate intrinsic spatio-temporal characteristics over the entire network and give insight into the traffic dynamics of an entire city. By integrating our estimation technique with our analysis method, we achieve a general framework for extracting, processing and interpreting traffic information using GPS probe vehicle data. 2 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Streetcars have 3 particularly uncompetitive running times but no research has explored influences on streetcar dwell time. 4 There is also no analytical research on dwell time effects of stop design despite anecdotal evidence showing 5 platform stops have acted to reduce streetcar dwell time. 6 This is an empirical study of factors affecting dwell time on streetcars in Melbourne and Toronto 7 focussing on tram stop design. Results show payment of fares to drivers on entry in Toronto acts to 8 increase dwell time compared to on-board self ticket validation in Melbourne ($\beta$ =.26). For a typical 10 9 passengers boarding/5 alighting, the Melbourne approach saves 9 sec (48{\%}) of dwell time compared to 10 Toronto. Tram stop design, notably platform stops, was the next most significant factor affecting streetcar 11 dwell time ($\beta$ =-.18). For a typical 10 passenger boarding/5 alighting, platform stops reduce dwell time by 12 6.6 seconds or 34{\%}. A positive link between the number of doors on trams and dwell time was found 13 however this is thought to result from insufficient examples of high boarding numbers on 4-door trams. 14 The results suggest that off-vehicle or post-boarding ticket purchase and validation are significant 15 strategies to reduce dwell time.

Feature selection is the process of reducing the number of 5 features so that only a subset of variables most relevant to target variable. This is a relatively new 6 technique used in the fields of machine learning and statistics that is highly useful when dealing 7 with large and novel datasets such as the Northern New Jersey resident evacuation survey data 8 which is used to develop the C{\&}RT model. It is important to emphasize that Northern New 9 Jersey resident evacuation survey is quite unique in the sense that it is the one of the few surveys 10 that focused on different disaster scenarios rather than a single one such as hurricane or nuclear 11 power plant disasters. This scenario based approach adds to the complexity of the survey data 12 and makes the proposed feature selection approach even more useful for estimating the 13 classification and regression tree. After the brief description of the Northern New Jersey resident 14 evacuation survey data, theoretical background of the proposed feature selection approach is 15 discussed. The importance and use of variable ranking is illustrated in the context of optimal 16 tree size selection of C{\&}RT model and further use of variable ranking as a guideline for 17 designing future surveys is also discussed.},

The results of a stated preference survey, which reveal the perception of 10 residents about optimal locations of these centers, but also the spatial and other characteristics 11 of the region, are used as inputs. Different models are then developed and estimated: A linear 12 regression model, a Spatial Simultaneous Autoregressive model (SAR) and a Geographically 13 Weighted Regression (GWR) model. The exploratory analysis uses the respondents' 14 perception of optimal location as the response variable and information about the population, 15 points of interest, bus routes, average income, road network (length, number of lanes, average 16 speeds), distance from the city stadium, shopping center and controlled parking scheme as 17 explanatory variables. The analysis showed that the selection of the appropriate location for a 18 mobility center is mostly influenced by the residential population, the number of points of 19 interest, the number of bus routes, the vehicles average speed and the length of the road 20 network. Moreover, the GWR seems to better fit the data, while the Moran's I test shows that 21 it solves the autocorrelation of the residuals, something the other models (OLS and SARmix) 22 fail to accomplish. The model's predicted values are localized (unlike OLS), making the 23 decision easier.

Its first order conditions are shown to be equal to the gravity 4 equations and PCL formula. The proposed solution method is a disaggregate simplicial 5 decomposition algorithm that iterates two phases. Phase I employs the partial linearization 6 descent algorithm to approximately solve the restricted CDA-PCL-SUE, and Phase II is the 7 column generation phase. In Phase I, the partially linearized problem is decomposed into an 8 entropy maximization problem on O-D flow space that can be solved by Bregman's balancing 9 algorithm and a PCL SUE problem that can be solved by PCL formula. CDA-PCL-SUE is 10 compared with its multinomial-logit counterpart (CDA-MNL-SUE) on two test networks at two 11 congestion levels. We found that the relationship of O-D flow difference and dispersion factor is 12 not necessarily clear, whereas the link flow patterns from the two models are more identical at 13 higher dispersion factors on the two networks at two congestion levels. At a fixed dispersion 14 factor, CDA-PCL-SUE assigns less flow to a path with a higher average similarity index and 15 higher path cost than CDA-MNL-SUE does. CDA-PCL-SUE generally assigns less flow to links 16 with more paths passing through than CDA-MNL-SUE does. The relationship between O-D 17 flow allocation and the average similarity indices for O-D pairs is not obvious, since the gravity-18 based trip distribution equation is based on additional variables and the origin and destination 19 demand constraints must be satisfied. 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

This model considers the interaction between 3 driver characteristics and vehicle physical capabilities. The model explicitly captures the vehicle 4 constraints on driving behavior using a vehicle dynamics model. In addition, the model uses the 5 driver's input and the psychological deliberation in accepting/rejecting a gap. The model is 6 developed using a total of 301 accepted gaps and subsequently validated using 2,429 rejected 7 gaps at the same site and also validated using 1,485 gap decisions (323 accepted and 1,162 8 rejected) at another site. The proposed model is considered as a mix between traditional and 9 reactive methods for decision making and consists of three main components: input, data 10 processing and output. The input component uses sensing information, vehicle and driver 11 characteristics to process the data and estimate the critical gap value. Thereafter, the agent 12 decides to either accept or reject the offered gap by comparing to a driver-specific critical gap 13 (the offered gap should be greater than the critical gap for it to be accepted). The results 14 demonstrate that the agent-based model is superior to the standard logistic regression model 15 because it produces consistent performance for accepted and rejected gaps (correct predictions in 16 90{\%} of the observations) and the model is easily transferable to different sites. The proposed 17 modeling framework can be generalized to capture different vehicle types, roadway 18 configurations, traffic movements, intersection characteristics, and weather effects on driver gap 19 acceptance behavior. It is anticipated that these findings may be used to develop weather-specific 20 traffic signal timings and also for the future of vehicle-to-vehicle communications. 21 22},

abstract = {In arterial networks, traffic flow dynamics are driven by the presence of traffic signals, for which precise signal timing is difficult to obtain in arbitrary networks or might change over time. A comprehensive model of arterial traffic flow dynamics is necessary to capture its specific fea-tures in order to provide accurate traffic estimation approaches. From hydrodynamic theory, we model arterial traffic dynamics under specific assumptions standard in transportation engi-neering. We use this flow model to develop a statistical model of arterial traffic. The statistical approach is essential to capture the variability of travel times among vehicles: (1) the delay experienced by a vehicle depends on the time when it enters the link (in relation to the signal green/red phases) and this entrance time can occur at any random time during the cycle and (2) the free flow speed of a vehicle depends both on the driver and on external factors (jaywalking, double parking, etc.) and is another source of uncertainty. These two sources of uncertainty are captured by deriving the probability distribution of delays (from hydrodynamic theory) and modeling the nominal free flow travel time as a random variable (which encodes variability in driving behavior). We derive an analytical expression for the probability distribution of travel times between any two locations on an arterial link, parameterized by traffic parameters (cycle time, red time, free flow speed distribution, queue length and queue length at saturation). We validate the model using probe vehicle data collected during a field test in San Francisco, as part of the Mobile Millennium system. The numerical results show that the new distribution derived in this article more accurately represents the actual distribution of travel times than other distributions that are commonly used to represent travel times (normal, log-normal and Gamma distributions). We also show that the model performs particularly well when the amount of data available is small. This is very promising as the volume of probe vehicle data available in real time to most traffic information systems today remains sparse. 2 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

A measure to improve existing two-lane highways to two-plus-one (2+1) lane highways by installing an auxiliary lane has been introduced to offer a better quality of service to road users. A sensitivity analysis was undertaken with a traffic flow microsimulation program, SIM-R, to evaluate the effectiveness of 2+1-lane highway sections, which were built by adding an auxiliary lane to rural two-lane highways, in a cold, snowy region. The road surface conditions under analysis were dry and covered with compacted snow. The hourly traffic volumes were changed from 100 to 1,000 vehicles per hour. Evaluation indicators were the average travel speed, the percentage of following vehicles, and the density of following vehicles. The results showed that the average travel speed decreased, the follower percentage increased, and the follower density increased as the hourly traffic volumes increased. Moreover, the road performance decreased on the road covered with compacted snow compared with the dry road. The installation of an auxiliary lane at certain intervals was also found to improve the level of service for two-lane highways on both the dry road and the road with compacted snow.},

To secure and retain employment, people must have a degree of mobility. The federal Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) program enhances mobility for low-wage workers and low-income individuals by offering federal funding for locally planned and developed access projects. Funding for JARC projects is a combination of federal and local funding. Local funding derives from local sources, such as dedicated taxes, other local-level government-funded programs for disadvantaged populations, businesses or general accounts. The objective of this research was to identify local-level funding sources for JARC projects and identify associations between types of local funding and utilization of JARC funding. Little research had been conducted on the implications of local-funding measures on federally funded JARC projects. How do the different methods of generating matching local-level funds interact with JARC projects? For fiscal years 2005-2009, this research combined JARC program data with a survey of JARC recipients to analyze funding techniques and performance.},

abstract = {The freight transport business is extremely challenging for railways since transport by truck has intrinsic advantages with respect to flexibility and quality. Providing customers with flexible scheduling is particularly hard since optimizing an interconnected rail operating plan is more difficult than arranging for shipment by truck. In this environment it would be very helpful if shippers could provide railways with accurate demand forecasts. However, the ability to forecast rail freight transport differs strongly between shippers and commodity types. The goal of this research is to develop a methodical framework to better understand the characteristics that influence the ability of freight shippers to prepare accurate forecasts of rail demand. This information will help railways increase productivity by improving their ability to develop optimized schedules. It will do this by helping them decide when to rely on shipper forecasts and as a benchmark to identify shippers that can provide accurate forecasts. The paper describes the methodological framework and presents results from a case study application to illustrate the practical applicability of the proposed framework.},

In large dense regions it is difficult to have a comprehensive data set for the entire transit network. This is especially true in the Greater Philadelphia region, which includes multiple rail and bus modes and more than ten different operating agencies. GTFS (General Transit Feed Specification) is a data standard defined by Google since 2006, which is used by many transit agencies to publish their schedule data for the use in Google Maps and other internet applications. The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) has used GTFS as the main source for transit data in the development of its new regional forecasting model. Several benefits from the use of GTFS have become obvious during this work, such as data accuracy, format standardization, and regular updates. The model development process includes data translation, integration with other data sources, and calibration of model components that are not included in GTFS, such as access to transit, transfers, representation of fare and finally path-building and path-choice. The paper also explains challenges and benefits of the use of GTFS in a regional forecasting model and gives insight in the current state of model validation.},

A choice model is defined to estimate the effect of 4 charge on Heavy Good Vehicles (HGVs) and its impact on regional employment. The spatial 5 interaction has been analyzed using random utility models to describe how economic destination 6 sectors choose where to acquire their inputs in a utility-maximizing or cost-minimizing way. The 7 methodology is based on commodity flow forecasts and economic input-output modeling 8 techniques. The variable used is basically the generalized costs. In order to test this 9 methodology, we applied the model to the case study of Spain. We found that the variation in 10 employment is expected to be substantial for some regions, and negligible for others. For the 11 Spanish case study, regional employment was calculated to decrease between 4.5{\%} (Rioja) and 12 0.4{\%} (Madrid region). This variation range is related to the intensity of HGVs transport in each 13 region. Regions with HGVs transport intensive sectors will lose more jobs, while regions with a 14 predominantly service economy undergo a fairly insignificant loss of employment. 15 16 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In this paper, a method is presented that results in system-optimal route guidance (consisting of routes advised to the travellers), explicitly considering compliance behavior. This is a complex problem because it has a high number of decision variables, i.e. routes. An efficient fixed-point approach to route guidance is presented. The problem is decomposed into two simpler problems. First, turning fractions are optimized subject to the objective of the original problem and a traffic flow model, under the assumption of full compliance. Second, route advice is optimized such that it reproduces the turning fractions as far as possible, under the assumption of fixed (i.e. flow indepen-dent) time-dependent travel times derived from the first problem. Bounds on the turning fractions for the first problem are derived from the result of the second problem. Iteratively solving these problems results in a fixed-point solution, and the route advice at that point is an approximate solution for the original problem. The approach is applied to route guidance during regional mass evacuations. The efficiency of the fixed-point method is compared to the efficiency of the so-called undecomposed approach, in which route advice is optimized subject to the objective of the original problem, a traffic flow model and a behavioral model. The results confirm the efficiency: the fixed-point approach turns out to be about 40 times as fast as the undecomposed approach, with preservation of the quality of the solutions.

abstract = {The purpose of this study is to demonstrate methodology for in-use measurement of diesel- electric passenger railroad locomotives using a Portable Emission Measurement System (PEMS). The methodology was developed and demonstrated based on railyard load tests of three locomotives, including one GP40 and two F59s. These locomotives have mechanically governed prime mover engines ranging from 140 to 169 liters displacement and with 3,000 hp output. Each locomotive also has a “head-end power” (HEP) engine of 19 to 27 liters that produce approximately 600 hp. The engines were measured using ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel. In collaboration with the locomotive owner and operator, including the field mechanics, we developed fittings and protocols for instrumenting the engines in order to measure manifold absolute pressure (MAP), engine RPM, intake air temperature, and exhaust concentration. Prime mover engines are operated at throttle notch settings. For the HEP engines, three different electrical loads were applied for a period of approximately 10 minutes each based on power usage for one, two and four passenger cars, respectively. Over 97 percent of the raw data survived a multi-step quality assurance process. The data obtained from the PEMS for the main engines were found to be comparable, on a fuel-basis, to data reported by others, particularly for NOx and CO. The key results from this work are establishment of a methodology for future tests and development of baseline data. The tested locomotives are planned for major overhauls in order to reduce emissions in compliance with current standards. There are also plans to switch these locomotives from ULSD to soy-based B20 biodiesel. The current work establishes a baseline for comparisons of these planned changes.},

abstract = {Passenger incidence (station arrival) behavior has been studied primarily to understand how changes to a transit service will affect passenger waiting times. The impact of one intervention (e.g., increasing frequency) could be overestimated when compared with another (e.g., improving reliability), depending on the assumption of incidence behavior. Understanding passenger incidence allows management decisions to be based on realistic behavioral assumptions. Earlier studies on passenger incidence chose their data samples from stations with a single service pattern such that the linking of passengers to services was straightforward. This choice of data samples simplifies the analysis but heavily limits the stations that can be studied. In any moderately complex network, many stations may have more than one service pattern. This limitation prevents the method from being systematically applied to the whole network and constrains its use in practice. This paper considers incidence behavior in stations with heterogeneous services and proposes a method for estimating incidence headway and waiting time by integrating disaggregate smartcard data with published timetables using schedule-based assignment. This method is applied to stations in the entire London Overground to demonstrate its practicality; incidence behavior varies across the network and across times of day and reflects headways and reliability. Incidence is much less timetable-dependent on the North London Line than on the other lines because of shorter headways and poorer reliability. Where incidence is timetable-dependent, passengers reduce their mean scheduled waiting time by more than 3 min compared with random incidence.},

abstract = {Peer organizations in a performance benchmarking group are usually carefully selected based on similar characteristics such as the type of services offered, operational characteristics and density of the service area. These similarities enable organizations to compare performance once their operational data are normalized. The most commonly used normalization factors for the demand side output are passenger boardings and passenger kilometres. For the supply side output these are vehicle kilometres and vehicle hours. Through seven years of experience in the International Bus Benchmarking Group (IBBG) a better understanding of differences in service characteristics between 'similar' peers has been achieved. It became clear that relative performance can often not be concluded from a performance indicator normalized in one dimension. Variety in commercial speed, trip length, vehicle capacity, vehicle weight and network efficiency results in the need for a multi dimensional or balanced approach to data normalization. This paper quantifies the variety within these operational characteristics and provides a framework for benchmarking practitioners and policymakers that suggests applicable combinations of denominators for a balanced normalization process. This paper further describes how alternative normalization factors such as revenue service planning capacity kilometres and total tonne kilometres have improved comparability of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).},

Mitrovic, N., Stevanovic, A., and Jolovic, D. 12-0752 2 ABSTRACT 1 With an increase in LRT frequencies and spatial service extensions, there is a greater potential 2 for operational conflicts with private traffic. While this may not be an issue for cities with 3 historical accommodation of public transportation through established mass transit systems, 4 Midwestern cities primarily rely on auto-trips and may consequently expect a significant private 5 transportation impact from LRT operations in the coming years. This paper investigates such an 6 issue by looking at various operational strategies to develop LRT schedules at at-grade crossings 7 with major arterials in Salt Lake City. Three distinctive scenarios were evaluated in a properly 8 calibrated and validated microsimulation model. To further investigate opportunities for 9 improvement an analytical model of LRT operations was developed and tested. A scenario in 10 which the LRT schedule reduced stops (by 10{\%}) and delay (by 9{\%}) on the busiest arterial 11 generated the best results. The findings showed that there were no significant differences 12 between arrivals which adhered to the schedule and randomized arrivals. Results of the analytical 13 model, which optimized offsets between trains from opposite directions, additionally decreased 14 delay by 10{\%}. Future research should investigate more strategies and potentially introduce an 15 optimization-based search for the best strategy. The overall findings show that optimization of 16 LRT schedules is a viable option to reduce vehicular delay at at-grade crossing which provide 17 preemption for LRT trains. 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41},

This research determines that whites, those from high-income households and middle-aged respondents make more trips than non-whites, lower income households and younger age groups. Contrary to planning literature, for pedestrian trips, the data supports that whites travel farther distances than non-whites. Similarly, the data suggests that non-whites and respondents from middle-income households take longer walking trips. Income and age did not affect pedestrian travel distances with statistical significance. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {1 One way to reduce excessive fuel consumption and vehicular emissions on urban streets is to 2 maintain optimal signal timings. Generally considered tools to reduce traffic delays and stops, 3 Adaptive Traffic Control Systems continually adapt their signal timings to reflect changes in 4 traffic demand and distribution. However, few Adaptive Traffic Control deployments have been 5 evaluated for their environmental benefits. This study evaluates SCATS Adaptive Traffic 6 Control System in a microsimulation environment and assesses environmental benefits that such 7 a deployment brings. A high-fidelity VISSIM microsimulation model of a 14-intersection 8 network in Park City, Utah, is developed, calibrated, and validated. Special attention is given to 9 simulating various 5-day traffic flows observed in the field. SCATS and Time-Of-Day 10 conventional traffic control are interfaced with VISSIM and their outputs are post-processed in 11 CMEM. Findings show that SCATS outperforms Time-Of-Day traffic control by saving 12 approximately 2{\%} in terms of fuel consumption and other related vehicular emissions. These 13 moderate benefits in environmental performance measures are accompanied by larger savings in 14 traffic performance measures (delays and stops). An analytical formula commonly used to 15 estimate fuel consumption by traffic simulation tools is utilized to reveal the major violator of 16 reduced fuel consumption. The findings show that most of the savings come from a reduction in 17 number of stops which are achieved by SCATS' superior coordination of traffic on the main 18 arterials. Further research is needed to perform similar evaluation studies in the field. 19 20},

The model is integrated into a microscopic multi-agent simulation framework, and successfully applied to a naive and a complex scenario. The scenarios include the interaction of paratransit services with conventional public transport. With limited resources paratransit services compete and cooperate with each other to find sustainable routes, which compete or complement existing public transport lines. Besides providing a starting point for paratransit modeling of a region, the approach can also be used to identify areas with insufficient supply of public transport.

The paper describes the background to and rationale for an integrated planning course, and it explains the game and simulation aspects in detail. Assessment of student performance showed that the game significantly enhanced the achievement of learning outcomes. Students who faced more complex and open-ended tasks performed better, reaching higher levels of competence earlier on in the game.

Instance based learning is 3 a data mining method to solve regression problems, where the output variable is estimated based on the 4 most relevant observations. The proposed method can generally be used if there are historical 5 observations of the respective variable of interest (dependent variable) and if there are relevant features 6 available that describe the traffic situation (independent variables). This makes the method particularly 7 useful for the estimation and prediction of occasionally observed variables (e.g. travel times from probe 8 vehicles) based on continuously observed parameters (e.g. data from local detector stations). The method 9 has been applied to different training data sets, including travel times derived from probe vehicle data and 10 from a vehicle re-identification system. The main findings are: (a) the proposed method performs equally 11 good or better than several benchmark methods that have been applied; (b) the quality of the results varies 12 as expected with the training data – best results could be gathered for the prediction of local occupancy, 13 travel time prediction worked better if vehicle re-identification was used instead of probe vehicles; (c) the 14 method could be used as a backend for a traveler information systems; and (d) potentially very useful 15 extensions are the incorporation of the states of traffic control systems and the derivation of statistical 16 information. 17 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Costs associated with traffic externalities such as congestion, air pollution, noise, safety, etcetera are becoming "unbearable". The Braess paradox shows that combating congestion by adding infrastructure may not improve traffic conditions, and geographical and/or financial constraints may not allow infrastructure expansion. Road pricing presents an alternative to combat the mentioned externalities. The traditional way of road pricing, namely; congestion charging, may create negative benefits for the society and stakeholders, thus, defeating its main purpose (increasing transportation efficiency and social welfare). The authors study a road pricing that encompasses all the mentioned externalities. A meanwhile standard approach to deal with conflicting objectives (externalities) are models from multiobjective optimization. This approach assumes that there is one leader stakeholder/decision-maker. But then, if more than one stakeholder participates in the road pricing, the concept of Nash equilibrium (NE) from economics may constitute an alternative model. Using game theoretic approach, the authors study and extend the single authority road pricing scheme (Stackelberg game) to a pricing scheme with multiple authorities/regions (with likely contradicting objectives). The model includes users interests in the upper level - giving a promising model that deals with user acceptability of road pricing. The authors investigate the existence of NE among actors and prove that no pure NE exists in general. Then again, NE may exist under special conditions. Since NE may not exist, and since competition may deteriorate the social welfare, they further design a mechanism that simultaneously induces a pure NE and cooperative behavior among actors, thus, yielding optimal tolls for the system.},

The aim of the model is to better resemble traffic at a macroscopic level, especially regarding the amount of traffic volume per lane, the traffic speeds at different lanes and the onset of congestion. The model takes a new approach where different lane change incentives are combined to determine a lane change desire. Included incentives are to follow a route, to gain speed and to keep right. Classification of lane changes is based on behavior which depends on the level of lane change desire. The integration with a car-following model is achieved by influencing car-following behavior for relaxation and synchronization, i.e. following vehicles in adjacent lanes. Other improvements of our model are trade-offs between different lane change incentives and the use of anticipation speed for the speed gain incentive. Although all these effects are captured, the lane change model has only 7 parameters. The model has been calibrated and validated using loop detector data, showing a very accurate representation of lane distribution and the onset of congestion.},

However, simulation of the interactions among the different stretches 4 within a given network requires a significant amount of data that are not always available. In 5 addition, before/after comparisons cannot single out the real impact of a traffic management 6 operation from that of a possible demand change over the network. We propose a method that 7 addresses these two constraints using link-aggregated traffic data obtained from loop detectors. 8 Those data are the total vehicle-kilometres travelled (VHT), the total vehicle hours travelled 9 (VHT) and the travel time (TT). We show that it is possible to retrieve the demand matrix 10 corresponding to any observed traffic conditions on a motorway stretch. This matrix may then be 11 modified to represent a traffic growth or diversion. Furthermore, link-aggregated data also 12 provide the capacity of the stretch, which in turn may also be modified to represent the effect of 13 some traffic management operations, such as lane management.

Car following behavior, which describes the 6 behavior of a vehicle while following the vehicle in front of it, has a significant impact on 7 capacity and level of service, safety, and air pollution. In addition, it is an essential 8 component of micro-simulation models. Twenty nine test drivers drove an instrumented 9 vehicle twice with and without the system. Trajectory data of each vehicle and the 10 vehicle in front were collected. Car-following models were estimated for both cases, with 11 and without the system, and the results of the two models were compared. The results 12 show that co-operative systems have a positive impact on drivers' car-following 13 behavior. The system harmonizes the driving behavior of drivers and reduces the range of 14 acceleration and deceleration differences among them. The impact of the system is larger 15 on the older group of drivers compared to a younger group of drivers.},

Within the context of macroscopic transportation planning models, it has been 7 proposed that one method of estimating reliability is to make use of exogenously defined standard 8 deviation versus mean travel time relationships.

abstract = {Modern roundabouts that have unsignalized pedestrian crossings typically provide right-of-way to pedestrians, and therefore vehicles entering or exiting the roundabout must yield to pedestrians. The requirement that vehicles seek gaps in the pedestrian stream results in four distinct sources of delay to vehicles traversing the roundabout. Existing analytical methods for estimating delays to vehicles entering roundabouts typically consider only one of these four sources and ignore the other three. This paper presents an analytical model for estimating delays to vehicles traversing a single-lane roundabout. The model is based on gap acceptance and queuing models and explicitly estimates delays for each of the four sources for each origin-destination movement in the roundabout. The proposed model is evaluated for a typical single-lane roundabout by comparing the model estimates with estimates obtained from the VISSIM simulation model and the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) method for a range of traffic and pedestrian volumes. The results of this evaluation demonstrate that the proposed model is superior to the HCM method and provides delay estimates that are comparable with those obtained from microsimulation modeling. Further research is recommended to validate the model results by using field data.},

According to the field observations the authors find that microscopic 4 vehicle behaviors, such as car following, overtaking and lane change perform differently on the 5 links with different number of lanes. These differences may probably affect the macroscopic 6 platoon dispersion behavior and lead to the change of model's parameters. So the authors attempt 7 to study the impact of number of lanes on platoon dispersion parameters. 8 Investigations are undertaken at several typical sites on arterial streets of Changchun and 9 Hangzhou city, China. Platoon data are sampled on the links with 2, 3, 4 and 5 study lanes per 10 direction respectively. Statistical results show that platoon dispersion factor $\alpha$ depends not only on 11 normalized traffic flow but also on number of lanes. The curve between $\alpha$ and normalized flow 12 has negative skewness, however, when the number of lanes grows from 2 to 5, the curve becomes 13 steeper and average value of $\alpha$ decreases significantly, which indicates that the number of lanes 14 pays impact on $\alpha$ indeed.

The parking facilities were described by four different characteristics: parking costs, walking time between parking and final destination, chance of an available parking space, and location vis-{\`{a}}-vis origin of the trip. The data is analyzed using a standard multinomial logit model including both attribute and context parameters. For each trip purpose a model is estimated. The results show that car drivers' preferences regarding characteristics of parking facilities differ between infrequent and frequent car use. This holds especially for parking costs. As expected, it appears that for all trip purposes the part-worth utility of 'no parking costs' is significantly higher for frequent car use.},

abstract = {Personal rapid transit (PRT) systems are comprised of small, driverless vehicles carrying passengers between stations on dedicated guideways. Originally envisioned to operate at very short headways (a second or less between vehicles) and to provide non-stop service, initial systems are operating at higher headways of around three or more seconds. The resultant reduced capacity has prompted the question of ride sharing to be raised – even if it requires some or most passengers to no longer receive non-stop service. Large PRT systems with many origins and destinations have been thought not to be conducive to ride sharing. This paper presents a ride sharing methodology that is applicable to any PRT system with more than about ten stations. The methodology is simple to implement and has sufficient flexibility to accommodate changing demand in each station (e.g. morning peak, off-peak, evening peak, late night, etc.). The paper provides sufficient information and analysis to describe the ride sharing methodology and demonstrate its functionality. It finds that vehicle occupancy (and therefore system capacity) can be substantially increased over a fairly wide range of demand levels both between and at stations. It also suggests areas for further analysis and research. },

The responsible 4 agencies in the jurisdiction can then direct their finite resources in a systematic and strategic way 5 that is designed to maximize the effort to reduce the number and severity of roadway collisions. 6 This study reviewed the SHSPs of 53 jurisdictions in North America, and conducted descriptive 7 data analyses to clarify the selection process of jurisdiction-specific emphasis areas. We found 8 that the current process relies heavily on high-level collision data analysis and communication 9 amongst the SHSP stakeholders, but may not be the most effective way of selecting the emphasis 10 areas. This study then formulated a formal collision diagnosis tool (the beta-binomial test) to 11 clarify and illuminate the selection of jurisdiction-specific emphasis areas. We developed 12 numerical examples to demonstrate how engineers can apply the proposed diagnosis test to 13 improve the selection and prioritization of individual jurisdictions' emphasis areas.},

Few studies, however, report the influence of lighting conditions on driver speed. This study investigates the principal factors that influence driver speed on arterial roads in Turin, Italy. The aim of this study was to analyze driver speed under different daylight and nighttime lighting conditions. Six arterial roads were selected for observation and the measurement of speeds and illuminance on the pavement surface. The results showed that illuminance, in addition to factors such as lane position, lane width, and the relevant speed limit, should be considered a variable that can influence driver speed. The study used a regression equation to predict operating speeds (V85) on urban arterials; the corresponding sensitivity analysis has made it possible to quantify the effects of the aforementioned variables on operating speed under different environmental lighting conditions.},

The main aim of this paper is to maximize the accessibility of 4 China's Pearl River Delta Economic Circle (PRDEC) under limited investment constraint. To 5 achieve this object, a bilevel programming model is presented. The upper-level model is to 6 maximize the accessibility of the PRDEC under the investment constraint and the lower-level 7 model is the combined modal split and assignment model which can capture passenger's 8 travel model choice behavior. In order to resolve this bilevel programming model, a local 9 search genetic algorithm is designed and its detailed steps are introduced. The proposed 10 model and algorithm are used to maximize the accessibility of the abstract network developed 11 from the PRDEC under three different constraints of construction investments. Applied 12 results of case study show that, when the upper-limit of construction investment is 50 billion 13 yuan, the accessibility of the PRDEC can be improved by 13.2 percent by building four new 14 intercity railways, one new highway, and expanding one existing highway. Optimization 15 results were also obtained respectively when the upper-limits of construction investments are 16 37.5 billion yuan and 25 billion yuan.

This paper is intended to analyze the effects of defensive vs. non-defensive driving behaviors on vehicle emissions based on the field tests at different locations and time periods. It is shown from the analysis that (1) the defensive driver's primary consideration is safety, thus may increase emissions of some pollutant types in the real world; (2) emissions from the non-defensive driving increase more significantly than those from the defensive driving during peak hours in the downtown area, while in the highway area, emissions from the defensive driving increase more significantly than those from the non-defensive driving; and (3) while the defensive driving can decrease emission rates in the unit of emission mass per unit time, since the increase in travel time by the defensive driving may outweigh its decrease in emission rates for some pollution types, the defensive driving may end up increasing total vehicle emissions for certain pollution types.},

Changing a four-lane undivided road to a divided roadway by either building a boulevard cross-section or installing a physical barrier is a desirable option to improve the safety performance, but it requires significant resources and sometimes a strong political will. This paper introduces a crash countermeasure successfully implemented on two different segments of urban undivided four-lane roadways in Louisiana. This crash countermeasure is to change an undivided 4-lane roadway to a 5-lane roadway with center lane for left-turn (TWLTL) by re-striping pavement markings without increasing pavement width. Although the five-lane roadway is no longer an acceptable roadway type for new construction in Louisiana, the impressive crash reductions on both roadway segments clearly demonstrate it as a feasible solution under constrained conditions. Based on the statistical analysis with six years of crash data (three years before and three years after excluding the project implementation year), the crash modification factors for both roadways are estimated to be less than 0.5 with a standard deviation less than 0.07. While it is not surprising to see the biggest crash reduction comes from the rear-end collisions, the other types of collisions are also reduced. The crash reduction is consistent for the time of day and by pavement surface condition (wet vs. dry). One-size-fits-all solutions do not always prevail in roadway safety. Under financial and other foreseeable or unforeseeable constraints, proactively doing something to reduce crash problems is better than just passively waiting for the probably unrealistic best solution. The tall order of the Louisiana Strategic Highway Safety Plan for Destination Zero Death on Louisiana roadways calls for all feasible crash countermeasures.},

Other factors that might contribute to CTA rail ridership change (e.g. socioeconomic factors, transit service factors, weather condition, etc.) are controlled for in this study. Based on a mixed linear model, we found that the provision of the Bus Tracker service increases the CTA train ridership. This increase is possibly achieved by increased intermodal transfer efficiency between CTA buses and trains due to the provided real-time bus information. This result suggests that the complementarity effect of the provision of real-time bus information outweighs its substitution effect on the ridership of a connected transit rail system. Together with the findings from our earlier study which show that the provision of Bus Tracker service helps increase bus ridership, this study provides empirical evidences supporting the hypothesis that the provision of real-time transit information systems leads to transit ridership gains.},

However, limitations of existing data collection schemes make it 5 very difficult to obtain all real-world operating mode distributions for the entire 6 network. In this context, this paper strives to develop an approach that can be used to 7 derive operating mode distributions based on the aggregated link average speed data 8 at the pre-determined time interval, which are readily available in the current 9 transportation management systems, such as the floating car data system. First, the 10 paper analyzes how the operating mode bins change as a function of the average 11 speed on expressways using one-minute time aggregation interval. Then, a set of 12 operating mode distribution models are developed based on the aggregated average 13 speed at one-minute interval. Further, Genetic Algorithm (GA) is implemented to 14 improve the accuracy of the developed models. Finally, a comparative analysis of 15 operating mode distributions generated from the proposed model vs. from MOVES 16 with empirical data is conducted. The results demonstrated that the proposed model 17 produced practical and accurate operation model distributions and emission rates.},

It is shown that, thanks to the proposed approach, vehicles have smoother trajectories when crossing at a four-way intersection. The proposed method is compared to adaptive traffic lights and roundabouts in terms of throughput.

For example, 85th percentile speeds are used to set speed limits and to evaluate the effectiveness of safety countermeasures, and 15th percentile speeds are used to establish typical walking speeds for traffic signal timing. But the lack of a simple statistical test for percentiles has led some researchers to omit statistical analysis or apply nonideal approaches, such as averaging the 85th percentiles or using the binomial proportion test. This paper presents a statistical test for the 85th and 15th percentiles that is based on Crammer's theory of the asymptotic distribution of sample quantiles. This test is simpler to apply than the double bootstrapping or quantile regression methods. To illustrate its practical use, this quantile test is applied to three sample case studies: sequential warning lights at nighttime work zones, residential speed limits, and pedestrian signal timing.},

After 8 years in service data from this site were used to draw some conclusions on the life cycle cost analysis of HIPR. The control and HIPR sections are performing well. The HIPR section was build with less than half the cost of the conventional paving. Projections of future performance showed that the HIPR section is cost effective, saving 40{\%} over the conventional section. Environmental benefits derived in a recent recycling project, along with cost savings, make pavement in-place recycling an option that should not be ignored.},

Thus, traffic engineers have to rely on their experience to determine the deployment location for a PCMS. As a result, the potential effectiveness of a PCMS may not be fully realized. The objective of this research was to determine the optimal deployment location of a PCMS in the upstream of work zones with the purpose of effectively reducing vehicle speeds. To achieve the objective, two field experiments were performed. The first field experiment was conducted to determine the vehicle speed profiles when a PCMS was placed at three different locations from the start point of a work zone which was the location of the first temporary traffic control sign (W20-1 Sign). Based on the results of speed profile analyses, it was found that vehicle speeds declined smoothly and had the least speed variances when a PCMS was placed near 575 feet away from the W20-1 Sign. To verify the outcomes, the second field experiment was conduct in which a PCMS was placed at 750, 575, and 400 feet away from the W20-1 Sign. Based on the results of regression analyses, the authors concluded that the optimal deployment location of a PCMS in the upstream of work zones was anywhere between 556 to 575 feet away from the W20-1 Sign.},

abstract = {Traffic congestion in Greater Toronto Area costs Canada {\$} 6 billion /year and is expected to grow up to {\$} 15 billion /year in the next few decades. Adaptive traffic signal control is a promising technique to alleviate traffic congestion. For medium-large transportation networks, coordinated adaptive traffic signal control is becoming a challenging problem because number of system states and actions all grow exponentially as the number of networked intersections grows. Efficient and robust controllers can be designed using a multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) approach in which each controller (agent) is responsible for the control of traffic lights around a single traffic junction. Although similar approaches are investigated in the literature, agents select locally optimal decisions (actions) without coordination with their neighbors. This paper presents a novel, decentralized and coordinated adaptive real-time traffic signal control system using Neighborhood-Coordinated MARL (NC-MARL) that aims to minimize the total vehicle delay in the network. The system is tested using microscopic traffic simulation software (PARAMICS) on a network of 5 signalized intersections in Downtown Toronto. The performance of NC-MARL is compared against two approaches: the conventional pretimed signal control (B1) and independent RL-based control agents (B2), i.e. with no coordination. The results show that network-wide average delay savings range from 32{\%} to 63{\%} relative to B1 and from 7{\%} to 12{\%} relative to B2 under different demand levels and arrival profiles.},

abstract = {Physical activity derived from active school travel may have important implications for the healthy development of children. School travel research and policy typically contemplates the efficacy of built environment interventions. Less attention has been given to how children?셲 school transport relates to broader patterns of daily household activities and travel. Beyond behavioral concerns, school travel research has not considered the potential spatial autocorrelation in mode choice outcomes. This research examines the effect of intra-household travel interactions and the neighborhood environment on mode choice for school trips. School travel data from the 2006 Transportation Tomorrow Survey were used to estimate multinomial (conditional) logit models of mode choice, for 11 year old children in Toronto, Canada. Spatial autocorrelation was explored by extending logit specifications to include an additional auto-covariate parameter. Propensity mapping was also used to identify locations where the built environment facilitated or discouraged walking. The results indicate that land use mix and high block density near the home location, and land use mix near the school location increased the odds of walking. Potential directness of school travel route and the presence of major streets en-route were negatively associated with walking. The auto-covariate parameter was statistically significant, suggesting the presence of unobservable spatial dependency in mode choice among neighbors. The availability of adults at the time of school travel likely encouraged driving, the presence of siblings increased the likelihood of walking or using transit.},

abstract = {Speed is important while developing signal coordination timing plans. Ideally, actual travel speed should be used in developing signal timing plans. However, actual travel speed could be affected by existing signal timing and presence of other traffic. This study examines impact of actual travel speed on a signal timing operation of an arterial in Reno, NV. Using GPS tools, such as GPS receiver and GPS2LT, we have collected actual travel times and travel speeds of links on an initial signal timing plan. We have drawn GPS trajectory on the top of the time-space diagram with a GPS tool developed in our research. In GPS trajectory, actual travel speed between intersections can be clearly seen for three types of study runs. When actual travel speed is significantly different from the speed that is used for developing the timing, expected progression based on the time-space diagram would not be achieved. A new signal coordination timing plan is developed based on actual travel speed. Offsets and phasing sequences are adjusted according to new speed data, with an improved bandwidth optimization method based on Messer's method. Fine-tuning of initial signal timing plan is done to improve link and arterial progression bandwidth, generally link by link. The evaluation results of a case study about an arterial in Reno show a rather significant improvement is achieved after the fine-tuning of initial signal timing plan with actual travel speed is done, using VISSIM 5.30 and SYNCHRO 6.0 models.},

abstract = {A discrete model of bus stop location in which candidate stops are either selected or not has several practical advantages over classical continuum models. An evaluation method for stop sets that uses parcels as units of demand and the street network to model walking paths between transit stops and parcels has been proved effective and realistic. In this framework, the on-off counts at existing stops are used to allocate demand to the parcels in each stop's service area in proportion to the stops' trip-generating ability. The result is a demand distribution that matches existing counts and reflects variations in land use. However, with demand modeled on the street network, the placement of service boundaries midway between neighboring stops becomes invalid because of irregularities in the network of access streets and curves in the transit route. The dependence of a stop on more than its immediate neighbors for determination of its service area complicates the process of optimization of stop locations by use of dynamic programming. The proposed solution expands the state space so that a stop's service area is dependent on the two prior and the two succeeding stops. The resulting dynamic programming model was tested on two bus routes and found solutions that were better than the existing stop set and the stop sets proposed by consultants by use of simple yet state-of-the-art models. This paper describes a method for optimization of stop locations on an existing route that includes realistic and localized estimates of its impacts on walking and riding times and operating cost.},

We then summarize and critique evidence from the US on the association between 14 distinct factors and vehicle miles traveled. Our results quantify how much vehicle miles traveled can be expected to change in response to changes in policy or land use factors, including residential density and land use mix, as well as specific transport policies and programs such as transit improvements, road pricing, and programs aimed at changing people's travel choices. Overall, though individual studies differ as to exact effect sizes, it is clear that local-level policymakers can take actions that are likely to affect vehicle miles traveled. However, we highlight gaps in the knowledge base at a time when decision makers at the local level are being increasingly called upon to take action to reduce vehicle miles traveled. Variation in effect size based on local context or interaction with related policies and programs has been left largely unexplored. In addition, experimental research designs that can identify causal direction are rare, and appropriate data that quantifies vehicle miles traveled are often lacking. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

ABSTRACT 1 2 One effective approach to study the day-to-day traveler behaviors is through activity-based 3 traffic demand model, in which all travelers are treated as individual agents and interact under a 4 computational intensive framework. Nevertheless, due to high survey costs, low response rate 5 and privacy concerns, detailed household and personal characteristics are usually unavailable. 6 Various population synthesizers were hence proposed to reconstruct methodologically rigorous 7 estimate of household characteristics from different surveys. For instance, the iterative 8 proportional fitting (IPF) algorithm is used to synthesize the full population from both Public 9 Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) and Census Summary Files 3 (SF3) in the popular activity-based 10 traffic demand model, TRANSIMS. However, some fundamental limitations of IPF (e.g., zero 11 cells in the contingency table due to small sample size) have drawn sufficient attentions and 12 resulted in the development of enhanced IPF algorithms and other strategies. This paper 13 proposes a copula-based method to synthesize household characteristics that preserves both 14 marginal distributions and dependence structure among variables. The proposed method is 15 tested for the State of Iowa, and the results are compared to the IPF approach of TRANSIMS. 16 The synthesized households resulted in the same local SF3 statistics at each block group while 17 having similar inter-variable correlations as described in the PUMS, suggesting the applicability 18 of the copula-based approach. Since both marginal distributions and dependence structure can 19 be faithfully preserved, the proposed method could be a suitable alternative to synthesize realistic 20 agent characteristics for further activity-based traffic demand modeling. 21 22 INTRODUCTION 23 24 Transportation planners and policy makers rely on reasonable estimates of dynamic traffic 25 demands to support their decision making. For the most part, the dynamic traffic demand was 26 estimated through conventional trip-based traffic demand models, in which four major 27 components are included: trip generation, trip distribution, modal choice, and trip assignment. 28 Nevertheless, a valid representation of the underlying travel behaviors is lacking. To address 29 this drawback, researchers started to study activity-based models (i.e., models based on the 30 activities of individual agents). The most critical characteristics of activity-based approach is 31 that travel demands are derived from simulated activities such as travel initiation, spatial choice, 32 scheduling linkages between activities, locations, times, and allowing alternate decision 33 paradigms (1, 2). Accordingly, the activity-based models require realistic agent characteristics 34 and detailed day-to-day activities, at home or elsewhere (3). 35 Since activity-based models allow interaction between individuals throughout the entire 36 network instead of simply between traffic analysis zones (TAZs), the demographic attributes of 37 all individuals need to be collected. Though many transportation planning agencies, such as the 38 Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), are obligated to provide most detailed and 39 up-to-date traveler characteristics, applicable data is mostly scarce due to high survey costs, low 40 response rate, long data processing time, and privacy concerns (4, 5). Therefore, many research 41 focus on synthesizing household and personal demographic data from surveyed samples with 42 behaviorally realistic and theoretically sound approaches. Ideally, such a dataset should have a 43 sufficiently large sample size, and contain multiple household characteristics with correct 44 inter-variable correlations between key demographic variables. However, there is a common 45 trade-off between data availability and the extent of spatial coverage. For example, the Public 46 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {ABSTRACT The research presented in this paper quantifies and models the impact of wet pavement surface and rainy weather conditions on driver perception-reaction times (PRTs), deceleration levels, and traffic signal change interval durations. A total of 648 stop-run records were collected as part of the research effort for a 72 km/h (45 mi/h) approach speed where participant drivers encountered a yellow indication initiation at different distances from the intersection. The participant drivers were randomly selected in different age groups (under 40 years old, 40 to 59 years old, and 60 years of age or older) and genders (female and male). Using the gathered data, statistical models for driver PRT and deceleration levels were developed, considering roadway surface and environmental parameters, driver attributes (age and gender), roadway grade, approaching speed, and time and distance to the intersection at the onset of yellow. Inclement weather yellow timings were then developed and summarized in lookup tables as a function of different factors (driver age/gender, roadway grade, speed limit, precipitation level, and roadway surface condition) to provide practical guidelines for the design of yellow signal timings in wet and rainy weather conditions. The results indicate that wet roadway surface conditions require a 5 percent increase in the change interval and that rainy conditions require a 10 percent or more increase in the duration of the change interval. These recommended change durations can also be integrated within the Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) initiative to provide customizable driver warnings prior to a transition to a red indication.},

Generally, this problem can be solved with an optimization model to minimize or maximize the expected value of a key variable, such as cost or profit. However, such models do not consider the variance (namely, the risk), another issue of great concern to decision makers. Therefore, this paper aims to develop a robust optimization model in which both expected value and variance are considered simultaneously. By adjusting the penalty parameters of the robust optimization model, decision makers can determine an optimal plan for liner ship fleets (including decisions about fleet design and deployment) to maximize total profit under different container shipment demand scenarios while simultaneously controlling variance.

abstract = {1 2 In a typical travel demand modeling application, multiple versions of a transportation network 3 are needed to represent the modeling networks associated with different design alternatives for 4 different model years. Traditionally, these networks are modified individually and stored in 5 separate network files. The process is not only time-consuming, but is also prone to network 6 coding errors that result in network inconsistencies. This has led to the use of the " master 7 network " approach of building and maintaining modeling networks. A master network combines 8 the base-year and all future-year model networks in a single, integrated, and consistent 9 spatiotemporal database. With a master network database design, a specific network is extracted 10 from its master network database by indicating the timeline and the design alternative of the 11 network to be extracted. After a network is extracted and modified, it is merged back into the 12 master network database; this merge allows the same changes to be automatically propagated to 13 other networks in the master network, thus saving time by both eliminating repetitive manual 14 changes and avoiding network coding errors. This paper describes a master network system that 15 was designed to implement not only automatic change propagations, but also minimize data 16 storage space, generate networks with consolidated links, and support open data attributes. 17 While the system was developed to work with geodatabases and the Cube Voyager travel 18 demand modeling engine, the same database design can be adapted for implementation with 19 other databases and modeling engines. 20 21 Keywords: Master network, spatiotemporal database, geodatabase, transportation networks, 22 travel demand modeling 23 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {The recent US Commodity Flow Survey data suggest that transporting hazardous materials (HAZMAT) often involves multiple modes, especially for long-distance transportation. However, not much research has been conducted on HAZMAT location and routing on a multimodal transportation network. Most existing HAZMAT location and routing studies focus exclusively on single mode (either highways or railways). Motivated by the less research on multimodal HAZMAT location and routing and the fact that there is an increasing demand for it, this research proposes a multimodal HAZMAT model that simultaneously optimizes the locations of transfer yards and transportation routes. A 0-1decision variable is defined which could make the optimization results reflect HAZMAT flow routing which subjected to railway transport organization principles. The developed model is applied to the simplified local multimodal network in the Northeast China for example. Results show that ideal location and routing plan can be obtained.},

abstract = {Detection of movement zone and predication of deformation development are two primary applications of inclinometers in slope stability monitoring. But it is often difficult to achieve these goals with great confidence because errors are inevitably involved in the record during casing installation and data collection. To deal with this problem, the wavelet based multi-resolution analysis method is proposed. In this method, inclinometer data are decomposed into different frequency components. Each component is then studied with a resolution matched to its scale so that the useful information can be extracted for further analysis. Applying the wavelet method to a highway slope monitored by inclinometers, a clear profile of subsurface deformations of the slope is obtained and the development of the overall displacement of the slope is predicated.},

abstract = {The graduated driver licensing (GDL) program in Queensland, Australia, was considerably enhanced in July 2007. This paper explores the compliance of young Learner and Provisional (intermediate) drivers with current GDL requirements and general road rules. Unsupervised driving, Learner logbook accuracy, and experiences of punishment avoidance were explored, along with speeding as a Provisional driver. Participants (609 females; M = 17.43 years) self-reported sociodemographic characteristics, driving behaviours and licensing experiences as Learners. A subset of participants (238 females, 105 males) completed another survey six months later exploring their Provisional behaviours and experiences. While the majority of the participants reported compliance with both the GDL requirements and general road rules such as stopping at red lights on their Learner licence; a considerable proportion reported speeding. Furthermore, they reported becoming less compliant during the Provisional phase, particularly with speed limits. Self-reported speeding was predicted by younger age at licensure, being in a relationship, driving unsupervised, submitting inaccurate Learner logbooks, and speeding as a Learner. Enforcement and education countermeasures should focus upon curtailing noncompliance, targeting speeding in particular. Novice drivers should be encouraged to comply with all road rules, including speed limits, and safe driving behaviours should be developed and reinforced during the Learner and early Provisional periods. Novice drivers have been found to model their parents' driving, and parents are pivotal in regulating novice driving. It is vital young novice drivers and parents alike are encouraged to comply with all road rules, including GDL requirements.},

While escaping under panic, 3 interactions between humans and physical features of the escape area can impede collective 4 movement. Turning angle is one of those elements that must be designed carefully. Although 5 previous studies on crowd disasters have highlighted the importance of considering turning 6 movements, very limited qualitative and quantitative studies have addressed this 7 phenomenon, particularly under panic situations. One reason for this might be the lack of 8 empirical data to validate the predictions from mathematical models. In this work, we use 9 empirical data collected from panicking ants and data from a crowd dynamic simulation 10 model to describe how right-angled egress paths work ineffectively compared with straight 11 egress paths during the collective panic egress. Empirical data with panicking ants and 12 simulation results showed that right angled egress paths decrease the flow rate (between 20{\%} 13 to 25{\%}) and increase the escape times significantly compared to those of straight egress 14 paths. The results suggest that it is possible to study evacuation strategies and design 15 solutions that can prevent crowd disasters utilizing empirical data collected from biological 16 entities. 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This paper presents a methodology to investigate the link between bicycle activity and built environment, road and transit network characteristics, and bicycle facilities while also accounting for spatial autocorrelation between intersections. The methodology includes the normalization of manual cyclist counts to average seasonal daily volumes (ASDV), taking into account temporal variations and using hourly, daily, and monthly expansion factors obtained from automatic bicycle count data. To correct for weather conditions, two approaches were used. In the first approach, a relative weather ridership model was generated using the automatic bicycle count and weather data. In the second approach, weather variables were introduced directly into the model. For each approach, the effects of built environment, road and transit characteristics, and bicycle facilities on cyclist volumes were determined. It was found that employment, schools, metro stations, bus stops, parks, land mix, mean income, bicycle facility type (bicycle lanes and cycle tracks), length of bicycle facilities, average street length, and presence of parking entrances were associated with bicycle activity. From these, it was found that the main factors associated with bicycle activity were land-use mix, cycle track presence, and employment density. For instance, intersections with cycle tracks have on average 61 percent more cyclists than intersections without. An increase of 10 percent in land-use mix or employment density would cause an increase of 8 percent or 5.3 percent, respectively, in bicycle flows. The methods and results proposed in this research are helpful for planning bicycle facilities and analyzing cyclist safety. Limitations and future work are discussed at the end of this paper.},

In the case of the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA), the study area of this 5 investigation, around 11 percent of peak period trips are pure non-work trips and auto driving is 6 the dominant mode. In fact, more peak period non-work trips are conducted using the auto 7 passenger mode than all transit modes combined. This heavy auto dependency for pure non-work 8 trips in the peak period, when transit service is at its highest throughout the day, requires an 9 improved understanding of such mode choice behaviour. This paper uses data from a household 10 travel survey collected in the GTHA to investigate peak period pure non-work trip mode choice 11 in the context of household mobility tool ownership (auto and transit pass ownership). The paper 12 also proposes an advanced econometric modelling approach for investigating mode choice 13 behaviour for peak period pure non-work trips. The model involves systematic parameterization 14 of the scale parameter of a GEV model to capture both heterogeneity in choice behaviour and 15 heteroskedasticity across the population. Empirical models highlight the capacity of the 16 heteroskedastic model in capturing preference heterogeneity and the influence of household 17 mobility tool ownership on peak period pure non-work trips. Results indicate that increasing 18 transit pass ownership levels would be beneficial for increasing social welfare. In the case of 19 transit services, better spatial coverage is more effective at attracting riders than increased 20 service frequency.},

ABSTRACT 1 This paper estimates mode choice changes and potential greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions from 2 transit service modifications and parking pricing for downtown commuters living in commuter rail 3 catchment areas in Montreal, Canada. This is done first by developing and estimating a joint neighborhood 4 type – mode choice model. Neighborhood typologies are derived using a cluster analysis based on 5 indicators such as population density, land use mix and transit supply at the residential location. This 6 modeling system is then used to evaluate the potential impact of land-use, transit accessibility and demand 7 management policies (parking pricing, PT fees and travel time) on the mode choice of downtown 8 commuters. Then, GHG emissions at the individual level associated with their trips under different 9 scenarios are estimated. Based on the estimated model and GHG emissions scenarios, it was found that 10 potential GHG emissions from this segment of the population could decrease between 4{\%} and 10{\%}: as 11 commuters shift from using their cars to commuter rail. The former could be achieved by decreasing 12 public transit travel time by 30{\%}, and the latter by increasing parking fee by 20{\%} and also decreasing 13 public transit fee by 20{\%}.},

Empirical models are estimated by using large-scale household travel survey data collected in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) in 1996, 2001 and 2006. Empirical models clearly validate the proposal that for walking, travel distance should be considered jointly with the propensity. The relationship between auto-ownership and walking-trip generation is proved to be very strong, referring that high auto-dependent household and neighbourhoods discourage walking. The empirical models reveal that the baseline walking propensity and distance remain unchanged over the years despite significant efforts to encourage active transportation through mixed land-use policies in the GTHA.

Innovative survey data on the complete daily activity-scheduling 5 adaptation process is used jointly with revealed scheduling information. The survey, conducted in 6 Zurich, Switzerland, collected daily scheduling information together with stated adaptation 7 responses corresponding to four adaptation scenarios. The four scenarios are defined by applying 8 hypothetical increases in travel time of 50, 100, and 200 percent and a 50 percent decrease in 9 travel time. Stated adaptation responses are collected in the context of 24-hour activity 10 scheduling. Data are used to estimate RUM based daily travel activity scheduling models. 11 Models are estimated for one revealed schedule and four stated scheduling datasets. In addition, a 12 joint model is estimated for pooled revealed and stated scheduling data. In the joint model, 13 separate scale/variance parameters are estimated for revealed and stated information. Results 14 clearly identify the non-linear responses of activity-travel scheduling to the changes in travel 15 time. Asymmetric responses are shown for travel time increases and decreases. People become 16 more conservative with time expenditures when scheduling activities subject to increased travel 17 times. However, beyond a certain limit of travel time increase, scheduling behaviour becomes 18 more unpredictable. The lessons learned from this investigation have implications in the 19 application of activity-based models for forecasting and policy analyses. Models developed using 20 only a revealed preference dataset should not be used to extrapolate to situations where travel 21 times changes by large margins. The results also prove that significant improvements in capturing 22 behavioural responses in the activity scheduling process are possible by pooling revealed 23 preference and stated preference data sets and jointly modelling with an explicit representation of 24 RP scale/variance differences.},

The paper presents applications of this concept in traffic signal control. Traffic control at signalized intersections involves balancing competing demands of conflicting traffic streams for limited capacity at the intersection. Intersection capacity is a scarce resource which needs to be allocated economically. Similarly, progression schemes on two-way arterial streets involve allocation of right of way through the intersections to competing traffic streams along the arterial. In both cases there is a tradeoff between the performance advantages that each traffic stream can obtain. Pareto-efficient signal control represents the optimal performance that can be wringed from these facilities. Performance efficiency is a precondition for Pareto efficiency. We introduce two types of performance potential frontiers: a Transition Potential Frontier (TPF) for single intersections and a Progression Potential Frontier (PPF) for arterials. The concepts are illustrated with examples for the two types of systems. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The objective of this study was to determine the impact of pedestrian waiting time at an intersection, due to phasing, time of arrival and the presence of a pedestrian signal on the proportion and type of pedestrian violations and dangerous crossing situations. Seven intersections with similar geometry and traffic conditions but different maximum waiting times, four of which had a pedestrian signal, were observed over at least two hours to collect crossing information. Data was collected manually for the main analysis and with a video camera for the validation of results. Many factors were identified as having an impact on the proportion of violations. Some confirmed the literature, such as age, sex, group size, conflicting vehicle flow and pedestrian signals. New factors were identified in this research such as maximum waiting time (red phase). It was also determined that an intersection's clearing time had an impact on violations and on the proportion of dangerous crossings committed. Also, pedestrians' speeds depended on the type of crossing. The results underline the importance of providing pedestrian signals and paying particular attention to pedestrian maximum waiting time as well as clearing time},

Shangguan, Al-Qadi and Leng 2 ABSTRACT 1 Ballast fouling is detrimental to railroad track functions. Ground penetrating radar (GPR), a 2 nondestructive testing tool, has been used to assess ballast fouling conditions. However, 3 processing the extensive amount of GPR data necessary to quantifying the ballast condition is 4 challenging. Although several approaches have been developed for data interpretation, each of 5 these methods has certain disadvantages, such as an inability to detect fouling without clear 6 interface between clean and fouled ballast and being user-dependent. To overcome these 7 disadvantages, a new approach, based on wavelet transform, was investigated in this study. 8 Laboratory tests were conducted to collect GPR data on ballast with controlled fouling levels. 9 The data were processed by choosing the proper mother wavelet, selecting appropriate wavelet 10 decomposition coefficients, and de-noising the signal. Standard deviation (SD) values of the 11 processed wavelet detail coefficients were then calculated. Based on the scattering theory, the 12 resulting SD value, which represents the scattering intensity of the signal, is an indication of the 13 fouling level. The laboratory results clearly show that the SD value decreases as the fouling level 14 increases. The effectiveness of the proposed approach was then validated by field data from the 15 Orin subdivision in Wyoming. By comparing in-situ ground truth data and GPR measurements, 16 the wavelet transform was proven to be an effective approach to quantify ballast fouling 17 conditions. This approach allows for fouling assessment without the presence of clear interface 18 between clean and fouled ballast and reduces user dependency. In addition, the new approach is 19 capable of processing GPR data automatically and continuously and provides the entire fouling 20 profile along the tracks. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41},

With vehicle revenue miles used as transit output, results show that small urban transit agencies experience economies of scale and density. A full-cost model is estimated; the model includes the addition of external costs and benefits. External benefits result from the reduced waiting times that follow an increase in service frequency. Results are used to estimate the optimal fare, which is equal to marginal social cost of service. The needed subsidy is calculated as the difference between the revenue generated by the optimal fare and that needed to maintain efficient levels of production. The rationale for subsidies is an important issue, as many agencies have experienced recent reductions in operational funding.},

abstract = {Successful integration of bicycle access with transit can help transportation agencies achieve multiple goals. From the agency's perspective, the interface can increase the catchment area of its stations, boosting ridership and increasing transit's competitiveness with the automobile for door-to-door service. From the bicyclist's point of view, integration with transit can help him or her complete trips not otherwise possible because of distance or environmental barriers. While previous research has focused on case studies or qualitative analyses of bike-transit integration, there are few quantitative studies that examine predictive relationships of levels of bicycle access to transit. This study aims to close that gap by considering associations of the built environment and demographic variables with the rates of bicycling to transit stations using an aggregate dataset built from questionnaires administered by the Bay Area Rapid Transit District in the San Francisco Bay Area. Relationships are discovered using a cross-sectional regression analysis of data collected in 2008. The analyses find that some demographic variables are predictors of higher rates of bicycling, but only within the subset of those already bicycling to transit. Built environment variables, such as bicycle parking at the station and intersection density, also predict more bicycling, while on-board bike restrictions predict less bicycling. The findings can help transit agencies develop effective policies that will have a meaningful impact on increasing rates of bicycle access to transit.},

abstract = {Thermal image sensors for stop bar presence detection have recently been introduced to the traffic industry as an alternative to cameras sensitive only to the visual spectrum. This new detection technology, from two manufacturers, was evaluated side by side with a video detection system. Inductive loops were used for a comparison to identify discrepancies that warranted the manual establishment of ground truth of the video images. The video camera and two thermal sensors operated simultaneously over a 24-h period, and discrepancies in the loop versus thermal or video detection calls were validated from recorded video. No missed call events longer than 10 s were observed, and only a modest number of false calls were made by the test systems. The bias in activation and termination times was also evaluated during day and night operation for each system. The study found that the median time difference in activating a detection zone was about 1 s when the day and night operations of the detection system were compared with a video camera. This finding is consistent with past studies that reported nighttime detection challenges related to headlight projections. However, the thermal cameras had virtually no change in median activation times when day and nighttime operations were compared. This encouraging finding suggests that integrating cameras sensitive to the infrared spectrum holds considerable promise for improving the quality of nighttime video detection.},

Such spatial variations are 12 viewed and discussed through application of the framework to the transportation and land-use 13 context of the Atlanta, GA metropolitan region, using stratified travel demand model outputs. 14 The calculation results indicate that spatial patterns of estimated commute energy emerge across 15 urban, suburban, and exurban areas, and that the explicit accounting of input parameter 16 uncertainty supports an evaluation of relative energy-saving probabilities. 17 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Alternative technologies such as hydrogen fuel cells and electric-powered trains have emerged to reduce the GHG emissions of traditional commuter rail systems powered by diesel. Even larger reductions can be obtained with energy production from renewable resources. This paper uses the commuter rail system in Montreal, Quebec, as a case study for implementing alternative technologies, namely, complete electrification of the network (only one of the existing five lines is electrified) and hydrogen fuel cell-powered trains. It is important to note that the main source of electricity generation in Quebec is hydropower which is offered at a relatively low cost. Several criteria were considered to determine the most suitable alternative including GHG emissions from operation and fuel production, operation and capital costs, and technological and commercial viability. Electrification of the commuter rail system would decrease annual emissions by 98{\%} which is more than 27,000 tons. The GHG reductions for hydrogen trains are lower than electric trains but still substantial. Results also indicate that increasing ridership to full occupancy of the current commuter rail network would not lower emissions per passenger-kilometer to the emissions level of electric-powered trains. The operation costs favor the electrification scenario; however, the high costs of electrical infrastructure make hydrogen trains more competitive since additional infrastructure are unnecessary. The cost of electrification is estimated as {\$}1,240.1 million which is within the {\$}1,2-1,5 billion recently proposed by the Quebec government, compared with {\$}414.8 million for hydrogen trains. Hydrogen trains remain a new and unproven technology; uncertainties associated with it should be settled before full implementation.},

It is questionable how much can be learnt about the reasons for behavioural change from such studies. A major investment programme to promote cycling in 12 English cities and towns between 2008 and 2011 provided the opportunity to study the bicycle use of residents and how it was affected by the investment. Face-to-face interviews collected biographical information on travel behaviour and life-change events during the investment period for 144 research participants and probed the reasons for changes in bicycle use. Theory (from the life course perspective) and preliminary analysis of the interview data were used to develop a conceptual model which hypothesises that turning points in travel behaviour are triggered by contextual change (a life-change event or change in external environment), and mediated by intrinsic motivations, facilitating conditions and personal history. The model provided an effective means of explaining turning points in bicycle use. The analysis of the interview data showed how the nature of behavioural influences (in particular life-change events and intrinsic motivations) varies over the life course. The research highlights the advantages of viewing travel behaviour change in the context of people's evolving lives and how this can assist in developing transport policies and practices.},

abstract = {This study seeks to improve our understanding of the " transfer penalty " that is created in the minds of public-transport users for routes with interchanges. The results of the study are on the major interchange attributes which influences the intention of public transportation users to use routes which require making inter-mode and intra-mode transfers. To obtain a deeper understanding of the " transfer penalty " set on routes with interchanges, the Theory of Planned Behaviour was used to explore the role of perceived behavioural control in the traveller's intention to use routes which involve making a transfer. A survey was undertaken in two of the major transport hubs in Auckland, New Zealand. The key findings indicate that the transfer penalty of a route has a strong relationship with the interchange connectivity value of that route. Results of the survey have shown that control beliefs of a traveller are only susceptible to change through improvement in the reliability of the transfer connection. In order to increase usage of routes with interchanges, the service should be designed to minimise the interchange time (interchange walking and waiting time) such that travellers do not feel anxious and disconnected from their travel. The maximum interchange time that is accepted by travellers is 10 minutes. Furthermore, results of the study have shown that perceived behavioural control is a strong antecedent of intention; once travellers feel more in control of their journey, their willingness to use routes with interchanges increases.},

Although the economy of scale from load and route consolidations could bring companies improvement of service range and routes, such benefits depend on the additional terminal operation costs. This study evaluated the effectiveness of urban cooperative delivery strategy in terms of the monetary cost by comparing the total logistics cost under several settings defined by a number of key factors of interest (e.g., customer density, demand quantity, facility location, and vehicle type). The use of the continuous approximation method was extended to modeling the urban cooperative delivery problem. The results demonstrated that there was no one-size-fits-all solution to the problem. The study evaluated the circumstances under which the urban cooperative strategies were favorable and unfavorable. The study findings provide theoretical insights to the effectiveness of urban cooperative delivery strategies, in contrast to the case study approach most commonly seen in the literature.},

A high-resolution Fourier Transform Interferometry (FTI) system is developed for 3 aggregate morphology characterization by using a fiber optic coupler to form a Young's double 4 pinhole interferometer. The FTI system uses a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera to capture 5 fringe images of aggregates with the size ranging from 3/4'' to {\#}50 and reconstruct three-6 dimensional (3D) surfaces of aggregates based on fringe distortions from the captured digital 7 images. A program is developed in MATLAB to quantify morphological characteristics of 8 aggregates from a variety of sources. The output results include sphericity, flatness ratio, 9 elongation ratio, angularity and texture for each individual aggregate particle. In this paper, only 10 the morphological characteristics of seven types of coarse aggregate with the size ranging from 11 3/4'' to {\#}4 is presented. These aggregates are also analyzed using the Aggregate Image 12 Measurement System (AIMS) II and the University of Illinois Aggregate Image Analyzer 13 (UIAIA) for further comparison. It is found that the FTI system is easy to operate and that it is 14 able to rapidly quantify morphological characteristics of aggregates.

abstract = {Compared with the ring-barrier framework used for ring structures (or phasing plans) in signalized control of intersections in the United States, the Dutch framework has no explicit barriers, but only a requirement to respect pairwise conflicts. This paper describes how ring structures can be modeled with pairwise conflicts as a starting point. Modeling techniques were extended to account for offset constraints such as leading pedestrian intervals in which the start or end of one traffic movement was constrained by the start or end of another one that was otherwise compatible. One practical drawback of the more flexible Dutch framework is that it permits so many more possible ring structures that it can be prohibitive to evaluate them all manually. Therefore, this paper describes VRIGEN, an automated method that overcomes this drawback by identifying and evaluating all possible ring structures. Finally, this paper presents several examples in which barrier-free ring designs allow signals to cycle more quickly and efficiently, with improvements in safety and delay for pedestrians and bicyclists. Most of these examples feature pedestrian phases that are allowed to overlap while their parent vehicular phases are not.},

ABSTRACT 1 The calibration of dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) models has evolved rapidly over the past 2 decade, fueled by the need for applications, from long-term planning to real-time traffic 3 operation. Numerous formulations and solution approaches have been introduced, based on 4 either analytical or simulation-based approaches. The aim of this paper is the documentation of 5 the existing DTA model calibration approaches for future reference. 6 The literature related to the calibration of DTA models can be categorized based on the 7 two major components that need to be calibrated: demand and supply model estimation. Travel 8 behavior modeling and origin destination (OD) demand estimation problems are considered in 9 the determination of demand models. Supply models simulate traffic dynamics, queue formation, 10 dissipation and spillback in either a microscopic or mesoscopic context. Early DTA calibration 11 efforts were based on iteration between the two demand and supply components. Recent 12 frameworks have focused on the simultaneous calibration of both components. Hence, different 13 solution approaches have been addressed with various functional needs and degrees of 14 robustness. 15 This paper summarizes the current understanding of calibration and estimation of all 16 input parameters for a DTA model, reviews the existing literature, and highlights the gaps that 17 need to be addressed in future research. Today's advancement in positioning and communication 18 technology is providing researchers and practitioners with an unprecedented amount of valuable 19 online and archived data. The benefits from extracting knowledge from these databases will be 20 immense and may provide the opportunities needed to overcome some of the hurdles in 21 calibrating a real-time DTA model. On the other hand, the research community has made 22 remarkable progress in advanced driver behavioral modeling and activity-based models (ABM). 23 These behavioral models may also be integrated with real-time DTA models. 24 Keywords: Calibration of DTA models, online and offline calibration, demand and supply 25 models 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {1 Existing research on the neighborhood impact of transit investments often explores individual 2 dimensions of neighborhood change such as changes in property values, shifts in development 3 patterns, gentrification, and/or displacement. Little existing research, however, explores a 4 broader variety of transit-induced neighborhood change processes, or directly investigates how 5 neighborhood residents perceive the changes transit improvements bring to their neighborhoods. 6 To fill gaps in knowledge, we surveyed residents in selected neighborhoods along four transit 7 corridors in the Twin Cities. Survey results show that residents of the study neighborhoods in 8 general have positive perceptions of transit-induced neighborhood change. There are, however, 9 significant differences between urban and suburban areas and between individual neighborhoods. 10 In addition, blacks, immigrants, current frequent transit users, carless residents, and new 11 residents in general have more positive perceptions than whites, non-immigrants, infrequent or 12 non-transit users, residents with access to a motor vehicle, and long-time residents. Implications 13 of these findings are discussed. 14 INTRODUCTION 15 Major transit investments such as new light rail transit lines or new bus rapid transit services 16 often bring significant accessibility benefits to surrounding neighborhoods and lead to the 17 physical upgrading of those neighborhoods. Much research has been conducted on land use 18 changes associated with transit improvements (1,2) . It is not until recently that researchers have 19 begun to explore social changes and community upheaval that occur alongside physical 20 upgrading of neighborhoods. Numerous researchers have found increased property values in 21 transit station areas. (3,4,5,6,7,2,8) Yet, rising rents and property values can force long-time 22 residents to move, leading to major changes in demographics and social structures (9,10,11). 23 Some researchers contend that modern-day neighborhood changes brought by transit 24 improvements are actively promoted by public policy. These changes are generally called 25 " urban regeneration " or " neighborhood revitalization " by proponents and can include examples 26 of the New Urbanist and Transit-Oriented Development movements (6,10,12). 27 Despite substantial progress in understanding transit-induced neighborhood change, 28 several limitations exist. First, neighborhood changes are generally associated with many 29 things—including housing conversions, racial and demographic changes, and shifts in 30 occupational character and social prestige (13,14). Many existing studies on transit and 31 neighborhood change only investigate one dimension (6,7,15) not capturing all impacts of transit 32 improvements on neighborhood change. Second, much existing research focuses on 33 gentrification and displacement issues (13,16) , with a trend towards separating them from the 34 wider neighborhood change processes associated with transit improvements. Such a trend limits 35 understanding of the wider processes at work, and tends to either paint an overly optimistic or 36 overly pessimistic picture of transit-induced neighborhood change. Third, most existing research 37 focuses on quantifying neighborhood changes using objective socio-demographic data (8,17) . 38 Few studies examine individual variations in perceptions of and reactions to transit-induced 39 neighborhood change. 40 The Twin Cities area in Minnesota is in the midst of constructing a regional " transitway " 41 system—a series of fixed-guideway transit corridors aimed at providing high quality transit 42 service on a regional scale. Previous research on premium transit in the Twin Cities finds that 43 light rail attracts both low-income transit-dependent riders and middle-and high-income choice 44 riders (18). In addition, residential property values in light rail station areas increased 45 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {State, regional, county, and local governments are developing and implementing plans to ameliorate the impacts of climate change. As part of the California Air Resources Board scoping plan developed in response to Assembly Bill 32 (landmark greenhouse gas legislation), California encourages, but does not require, cities to develop jurisdictional-specific Climate Action Plans. One challenge in developing these plans is quantifying the contribution of the transport sector that each city should either take responsibility for or attempt to affect – answering this question is yet another challenge – through the plans. As local Climate Action Plans in the US and elsewhere continue to mature and new plans are initiated, efforts to more rigorously quantify and analyze city-level transportation emissions will grow in importance. This paper offers a step in that direction by proposing a methodological approach for quantifying the contribution of the transport sector that takes advantage of the analytical framework offered by activity-based travel models. By applying the proposed approach for three cities in the San Francisco Bay Area, this research illustrates the method and suggests the broad applicability for its potential use elsewhere.},

Rather than focusing on travel model structures and formulations, this work instead focuses on an essential and often neglected part of any modeling exercise—understanding the nature of the system being modeled. Specifically, it involves identifying the major travel markets within a statewide model. The magnitude of each market is quantified through the use both of observed data and of model results and these markets are contrasted with what can be expected in an urban model. The results of this analysis provided a solid foundation to make informed judgments about both improvements needed within the model system, and data collection priorities. The context of this work is a case study for the state of Arizona, and it leverages the development of the Arizona Statewide Travel Demand Model: Phase 2 (AZTDM2). The work is of broad interest because many of the markets identified and development priorities can be expected to be common to many states, and because it provides a framework by which other states can analyze the travel markets most relevant to them.},

The study uses seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) analysis to account for complex serial correlation patterns in the error terms and tests the model against actual bicycle traffic counts. Temperature, rain, rain in the previous 3 hours and humidity are all found to be significant, with clearness found to be marginally significant at the 10{\%} level. The combined effect of rain and its lags is close to 24{\%} of the average hourly bicycle traffic counts, which is larger than the impact of it being a holiday or a Saturday, although the impact of it being a Sunday is still larger. An increase of one degree Celsius from the mean is generally found to increase bicycle traffic counts by 1.65{\%}, so an increase of 10 degrees would increase bicycle traffic by 16.5{\%}. The coefficients on humidity and clearness are small. A decrease in bicycle traffic of only 0.08{\%} is observed per unit change in relative humidity and 0.62{\%} at each of the four transitions between categories of cloudy to perfectly clear skies.},

abstract = {In the last decade, state departments of transportation (DOTs) in the U.S. have experienced an increase in their construction projects, while the level of their in-house inspection staff and resources has either remained the same or declined. In response to this challenge, some states have adopted strategies to deal with the situation, such as outsourcing the inspection of construction activities and using quality control and quality assurance certification programs. Previous studies have found that one strategy that may reduce the inspection workload is prioritizing construction activities for inspection. However, reducing the number of inspections also has its risks, such as functional failures and reduced design life. Thus, available inspection resources should be allocated to the activities with significant risk consequences if inspection of them is reduced. The objective of this paper is to develop a risk-based inspection protocol to facilitate efficient allocation of available inspection resources to minimize the risks associated with reduced inspection. First, the risk consequences associated with reduced inspection are identified for various construction activities linked to transportation projects. These risk consequences include short and long-term functional failures, reduced design life, reduced safety, and increased maintenance cost. Based on data collected from 23 state DOTs, 58 engineers and inspectors from the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), and 20 inspection consultants in the Midwest, the subjective perceived probabilities associated with the occurrence of each risk consequence are encoded using fuzzy analysis, from which the risk impacts due to reduced inspection are obtained. The construction activities subsequently are prioritized based on the risk impacts associated with reduced inspection into five priority levels: high, medium-high, medium, medium-low, and low. The greater the risk impacts are due to reduced inspection, the higher the priority would be for inspection of that activity. Thus, the proposed protocol could be used for resource allocation based on the risk impacts. The proposed list of prioritized construction activities could assist project and program managers in better allocating their limited inspection resources while reducing the risks due to reduced inspection.},

The results indicate that air travel demand appears to be fairly 14 price inelastic, with a fare elasticity of -0.29{\%} in the short run and -0.44{\%} in the long run. As a 15 result, demand management strategies focused solely on increasing air fares may do little to curb 16 demand growth. On the other hand, supply restrictions in the form of reduced service frequencies 17 may offer a more effective means of reducing aviation CO 2 emissions -a 10{\%} reduction in 18 frequency levels is found to reduce passenger demand by 5{\%} in the short run and 7.6{\%} in the long 19 run -, although this can create negative economic consequences. Some combination of supply 20 restrictions and pricing may therefore offer a more balanced solution.

abstract = {The increase of bicycle and pedestrian traffic in many urban areas has led to growing interest in multimodal performance measures.  Traditionally, counts of pedestrians and bicycles have only been collected for short durations at spot locations.  The lack of reliable long-term data precludes systematic performance monitoring and analysis of trends. This paper summarizes preliminary efforts to develop a long-term monitoring and collection system that leverages existing infrastructure to monitor  bicycle and pedestrian activity. Communication and logic protocols have been implemented to gather bicycle counts and pedestrian delay using existing hardware (loop detectors, signal controllers) and software at select intersections within the City of Portland, Oregon. Bicycle counts are being gathered using advance loops in bike lanes. Two novel methods for collecting pedestrian delay at signalized intersections are proposed in this paper. One method uses transit priority logging feature in the traffic controller software to track individual pedestrian phase actuations and corresponding delay. The other method uses internal logic commands to capture pedestrian delay estimates in relevant bins. Both methods provide delay and number of pedestrian actuations which can be used to characterize the pedestrian LOS at an intersection. The results from the study reveal that automation of data collection techniques for generating multimodal performance measures can assist in analyzing performance and long-term trends. The methods developed in this study can benefit other regions in understanding the effects of signal timing settings on multimodal performance.},

The road network includes pavement width, shoulder width, ramp width, locations of ramps, locations of intersections and different snow plowing patterns depending on available number of plows. Imaginary nodes are introduced in this model to account for changes in pavement and shoulder widths. Traffic speeds for each road segments during different travel time were extracted from Congestion Management System (CMS) and used as the model input to account for speed reductions due to roadway congestion. By comparing the traffic data on the snow days and that for non-snow days from Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) sites, four snow-conditions reduction factors for AM peak, afternoon, PM peak and nighttime periods are developed to account for the decrease of speed due to the snow. Finally, a case study was performed and the snow plowing model is applied to calculate the plowing cycle for different situations with limited number of plows. This research lays basis for further research on snow plowing operation and resource management.},

An advanced signal timing class, 3 where observation-based activities were the main teaching tool, was used as a case study in this 4 research. Measures were taken from student responses from a knowledge survey administered at 5 the beginning and at the end of the semester. The objective of the beginning-of-semester-survey 6 (BOSS) was to capture and document initial affordances and to determine the kinds of pre-7 conceived conceptual transportation knowledge that students brought to the course from their 8 introductory transportation engineering course and from their driving or riding experience. The 9 objective for the end-of-semester-survey (EOSS) was to assess conceptual knowledge and 10 affordances after the completion of the course, allowing for an assessment of conceptual change 11 and changing use of affordances from beginning to the end of the course. Findings from the 12 study showed that students increased their use of traffic observation as an affordance condition 13 as a result of the learning environment presented to them in the signal timing course. The 14 increased use of traffic observations in the course was accompanied by an increase in changed 15 responses which implies that traffic observation has influenced conceptual change. Findings also 16 show that students extensively used pre-conceptions that were personal in nature as affordances 17 to answer in the BOSS. Such personal pre-conceptions are almost non-existent in the EOSS. 18 This, again, shows a major conceptual change where personal insights and perspectives becomes 19 a less dominating portion of their understanding of the traffic phenomena. Students also showed 20 more improved vocabulary in their EOSS responses.

Bike-sharing programs enable flexibility to users by providing rentals at a variety of locations, and by facilitating one-way trips. In addition, they positively impact the environment and quality of life. The main contribution of this paper is explaining the factors effecting bike sharing trip generation and attraction. Using usage data from bike sharing systems in Barcelona and Seville, census level demographic data, and the location of points of interest, the authors explain various factors effecting bike sharing usage. They employ a panel regression model estimation strategy. By using two different fixed effects models, they are able to produce consistent estimates of trip generation and attraction factors in the presence of unobserved spatial and temporal variables. The authors find that the relationship between bike sharing and alternative modes of transportation can be complicated. In some settings bike sharing competes with alternative modes of transportation, while one can also argue that in other settings bike sharing complements. Taken together, the findings strongly support the following usage scenario: bike sharing programs in Barcelona and Seville are used mainly for commuting in the morning. In the evening a larger variety of trips purposes drive usage. These evening trips are also shorter and closer to home. The results provide empirical foundation for cities and planners in understanding the key factors contributing to bike sharing usage.},

Li, Mills, McNeil, and Okine 2 ABSTRACT Highways are designed based on historic climatic patterns, reflecting local climate and incorporating assumptions about a reasonable range of temperatures and precipitation levels. Given anticipated climate changes and the inherent uncertainty associated with such changes, a pavement could be subjected to very different climatic conditions over the design life and might be inadequate to withstand future climate forces that impose stresses beyond environmental factors currently considered in the design process. This paper integrates two tools: MAGICC/SCENGEN to address the potential climate change and its uncertainty, and the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) software to analyze the deterioration of pavement performance, to explore the impacts of potential climate change and its uncertainty on pavement performance and therefore pavement design. Three important questions are addressed: (1) How does pavement performance deteriorate differently with climate change and its uncertainty? (2) What is the risk if climate change and its uncertainty are not considered in pavement design? and (3) How do pavement designers respond and incorporate this change into pavement design process? This paper develops a framework to incorporate climate change effects into the mechanistic-empirical based pavement design. Three test sites in the North Eastern United States are studied and the framework is applied. It demonstrates that the framework is a robust and effective way to integrate climate change into pavement design as an adaptation strategy.

Taxicabs serve the 3 public in a variety of ways, from metered fares to informal jitneys, and provide critical mobility 4 for people of all income levels. Despite the ubiquity of taxi service in cities, there is limited 5 scholarly research that explores how people use taxi service to support transit-oriented lifestyles 6 and enhance mobility, and there is scant research exploring the complementary aspects of taxi 7 service for conventional transit. In this paper we argue that taxi service is a critical aspect of a 8 transit system, and taxi usage exhibits complementary characteristics to conventional transit. 9 Specifically, taxi usage is asymmetrical where origins and destinations have very different 10 spatial distributions. This suggests that taxi riders have multi-modal travel journeys. In many 11 cases taxi trips are part of journeys that began with transit trips, yet planning and expanding taxi 12 service as an extension of transit networks is rarely undertaken in practice. We use regulatory 13 and Global Positioning System (GPS) data from New York City as a case to demonstrate the 14 asymmetrical nature of taxi usage and innovative regulatory approaches that foster high rates of 15 taxi usage that complement transit ridership. 16 17 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

It was also found that the service needs of women less than 6 months pregnant differed from those of women more than 6 months pregnant.},

abstract = {1 This study describes the results of a stated choice experiment conducted to analyze route 2 choice behavior of car drivers under influence of advice and feedback on environmental 3 consequences of their trips. Framing of the route advice is varied in terms of goal of the 4 agency providing the advice (system or individual optimality) and extent to which it is 5 generic or tailored to the specific preferences of the person. The findings suggest that, under 6 conditions of rich information about attributes of choice alternatives, advice is discarded 7 when it is supposed to serve the driver's own interests and information allows the individuals 8 to evaluate outcomes independently, but is taken into account when it is said to serve traffic 9 management objectives. In line with expectations, the impact of advice is larger when it is 10 labeled as personal compared to when it is labeled as generic. An interesting finding is that 11 the impact of advice on evaluations of route alternatives is not uniform across attributes. 12 Whereas some attributes become suppressed in the evaluation, others become more salient. 13 The study further provides evidence that travelers are willing to trade-off social objectives 14 against individual-level objectives. We discuss the implications of these findings for the 15 design and use of travel information systems as an instrument for traffic management and 16 identify problems for future research. 17 18 19 Keywords: route choice, advanced travel information systems, compliance behavior, pro-20 social behavior, traffic management, environmental impacts. 21 22 23 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Pattanamekar et al. 2 ABSTRACT Recognizing that a sample commodity OD matrix from a commodity flow survey (CFS) is not the only source for estimating a commodity OD matrix, this study proposes an estimation model for a commodity OD matrix by using not only a sample commodity OD matrix from a CFS but also mode-specific OD matrices obtained from a direct survey of freight carriers. The model is formulated as a multi-objective bi-level optimization problem in which the upper-level seeks to minimize the sum of square deviation from the target matrices as well as ensuring that the estimated link flows from the intermodal network assignment approach are as close as possible to those from the modal network assignment approach. In the lower-level, user-equilibrium assignments of both approaches are performed. The weight parameters are specified and applied to transform the multi-objective bi-level problem into a single-objective bi-level problem. Next, the GA-based algorithm was employed to solve the problem. The developed model and the GA-based algorithm were validated and tested on a Korean intermodal transportation network with truck, rail, and waterway included. The results show that the model is able to produce an acceptable commodity OD matrix. INTRODUCTION Freight demand estimation is one of the most complicated processes in freight transportation},

abstract = {Spain has a long tradition of encouraging toll highways by granting concessions to private companies. Concessions in Spain have been char- acterized by a willingness to transfer considerable risk to the private sector. Traffic demand, acquisition of the right-of-way, and financial risk have often been allocated to the private sector. From 1996 to 2011, 16 toll highway concessions, covering a total distance of 835 km, were awarded by the central government of Spain with this approach. Some of those highways started their operations just before the economic recession began. The recession had negative consequences for Spain's economy. The gross domestic product per capita plummeted, and the unemployment rate increased from 9{\%} to 20{\%} of the working popu- lation in just 2 years. The recession also had severe consequences for the economic performance of toll highway concessions. Traffic levels declined at a much greater rate than did the gross domestic product. In addition, the conditions imposed by the financial markets on borrowers became much stricter because of the liquidity crisis. This study analyzes the impact that the economic recession ultimately had on the perfor- mance of toll highway concessions in Spain and the actions that the government adopted to avoid the bankruptcy of the concessionaires. It was found that the economic recession helped identify some deficiencies in how risk had been allocated in Spain. The measures that both Spain and the European Union are adopting so as to improve risk allocation are discussed. Since},

However, it is not yet clear which adaptation effects in empirical longitudinal driving behavior can be ob-served. Furthermore, it is not yet clear to what extent these adaptation effects in case of emer-gency situations are represented in current car-following models. To this aim a driving simulator experiment intending to induce longitudinal driving behavior under emergency conditions was performed. Longitudinal driving behavior was measured through registered behavior in the driv-ing simulator and analyzed using a Multivariate Analysis of Variance. So-called action points in psycho-spacing models were estimated using a new data analysis technique. Also acceler-ation as well as 'jumps' in acceleration at action points were determined using a Multivariate Regression Analysis. The results show that substantial and significant adaptation effects in lon-gitudinal driving behavior can be observed in case of an emergency situation. Furthermore, the results show substantial differences in the position of action points in the (∆v, s) plane in the psycho-spacing model between normal driving conditions and emergency conditions as well as substantial differences in acceleration and 'jumps' in acceleration at these action points. The contribution is concluded with a discussion section as well as recommendations for future re-search.},

Human factors can be assumed to play a substantial role in the efficacy of these systems. Human factors however lead to substantial differences in driving be-havior within as well as between drivers. In order to determine the efficacy of these systems it is therefore crucial that mathematical models of driving behavior capture this stochasticity caused by human factors. A complicating factor is however that in the past driving behavior has pre-dominantly been modeled through deterministic models. In order to capture this stochasticity in driving behavior in this contribution a first step is taken towards modeling of car-following through a Bayesian network approach based on psycho-spacing theory. A Bayesian net was set up and parameters were learned to the net using empirical trajectory data. From the marginal and joint probabilities it follows that the model performs relatively well in predicting car-following behavior.

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the size of these effects using the Stockholm Metro built in the 1950's, the largest urban rail investment in Sweden, as a case study. We find that benefits of the Metro increase 60 percent due to long term land use adjustments. Wider economic benefits increase the benefit by 17 percent. We show that the Stockholm Metro was socially beneficial to build according to present standard methods, even without taking land use effects and wider economic benefits into account. Hence, the anecdote that the Metro of Stockholm had not been built if CBA had been a part of the appraisal seems to be false.},

Although managed lanes, specifically, HOV lanes, have existed for several decades, there has been little documentation of their traffic flow behaviors. Because these facilities tend to take on a variety of configurations, including different numbers of managed lanes and separation types from abutting general purpose lanes, transportation engineers should understand the traffic flow differences among facility types. An understanding of the interaction between managed lanes and parallel general purpose lanes is also needed for assessing the performance of managed lanes. A study was done to investigate the performance and traffic flow behavior of managed lane facilities at sites across the country. Traffic flow behavior for five facility types, based on separation type and number of lanes, was analyzed. Factors such as frictional impact on the managed lane-caused by poor performance of the general purpose lanes and slow vehicle effects on managed lane facilities where passing is prohibited-were considered in development of a set of speed-flow curves for each of the five basic facility types. These speed-flow relationships are expressed similarly to basic freeway segments in the Highway Capacity Manual and can be readily incorporated into the manual for predicting the performance of combined general purpose and managed lane facilities.},

abstract = {Finding ways to encourage people to participate in domestic tourism has been a central political issue in Japan for many years. One issue is the unbalanced regional trend in domestic tourist destinations. Various transport policies have been proposed. Under such policy considerations, jointly representing tourism participation, destination choice, and travel mode choice becomes important. However, tourism demand shows monthly variations. To date, the above three aspects have not been satisfactorily analyzed in a dynamic fashion. This study seeks to gain a better understanding of interrelated tourist behavior and provide a scientific tool to support tourism policy decisions by jointly analyzing these choice aspects to build a dynamic nested logit model while taking the influence of state dependence into account. Empirical analysis confirmed the effectiveness of the model with the use of retrospective panel survey data collected from 1,253 respondents in Japan in 2010. To the authors' best knowledge, this was the first panel survey in Japan to investigate tourists' behavior over the course of 1 year on a monthly basis. Model estimation results confirmed significantly negative effects of state dependence with respect to tourism participation behavior (implying a decreasing tendency of continuous tourism participation at the monthly level), but positive effects with respect to destination and travel mode choice behaviors. The positive value of state dependence for the travel mode choice behavior suggests that people prefer to use the same type of travel modes when they travel. The influence of travel mode choice on destination choice shows largely regional variations. Results also clarified effects of tourism motivation, individual characteristics, destination-specific attributes, and travel mode-specific attributes on the three choice aspects. Implications of model estimations for policy decisions are discussed.},

Moreover, a motion estimation approach is proposed for estimating the motion states of the vehicles and predicting their new locations. Finally, a mixed model is established for searching the matching vehicles in the next image frame.

abstract = {1 A simulation model is proposed for heterogeneous traffic characterized by the non-lane based movement and the 2 presence of multiple types of vehicles. The key feature of this model is that it incorporates a strip based lateral 3 movement. The lane is divided into strips and accordingly the vehicles occupy multiple strips depending on their 4 type (width). The longitudinal model is similar to the traditional car-following model. But, the lateral movement is 5 captured along the strips. The model also works behaviorally better than the pure lane-based models as it allows the 6 tactical overtaking maneuver by a driver (in anticipation of better traffic conditions) which requires multiple strip 7 changes. The benefit gained for a strip change is computed using an improved benefit function instead of using 8 computationally complex rules. Moreover, this model retains the concept of lane based movement when the strip 9 width equals the traditional lane width and so can be used even for studying the traditional lane-based traffic 10 streams. On the other hand, defining very small strip width, the model is able to work close to a continuous system. 11 The model is implemented in a traditional lane-based simulator -SUMO, an open source traffic simulator. The 12 model was calibrated and validated with data from an urban street in Mumbai, India and the results indicate better 13 representation of the mixed traffic movement.},

We also look extensively at comparing the perception of comfort and the contributing factors between the two facility types. Field investigations were conducted at 43 segments on bicycle facilities in the metropolitan area of Nanjing, China. Bicyclists‟ perception of comfort and various environmental conditions were collected. We used an ordered probit (OP) model to analyze the data. Data analysis results showed that for physically separated bicycle paths, the environmental factors significantly influencing bicyclists‟ perception of comfort included the width of path, presence of grade, presence of bus station, physical separation from pedestrians, surrounding land use, and bicycle flow rate. For on-street bicycle lanes, the contributing factors associated with perception of comfort included the width of bicycle lane, width of curb lane, presence of grade, presence of bus station, amount of occupied car parking spaces, bicycle flow rate, motor vehicle flow rate, and rate of use of electric bicycles. The results suggested that bicyclists perceived a higher average comfort on physically separated bicycle paths as compared to on-street bicycle lanes. On physically separated bicycle paths, bicyclists‟ perception of comfort was mainly influenced by road geometry and surrounding physical conditions. In the case of on-street bicycle lanes, bicyclists paid attention to the effective riding space and traffic conditions. The findings of this study can help inform design and planning of these bicycle facilities},

However, EV utilization brings other concerns related to limited vehicle ranges and battery-charging issues, and thus the recharging infrastructure needs to be carefully designed and financially supported. This study focuses on the use of an EV fleet for an innovative transportation alternative called high-coverage point-to-point transit (HCPPT), which involves a sufficient number of deployed small vehicles that respond to real-time desires for point-to-point travel of individual travelers. As large-scale fleet operation of EVs and the HCPPT system are both envisaged only as future transportation alternatives, the benefits of combining these options have to be modeled and studied. Possible infrastructure investment benefits could result for both systems when transfer-hub locations of HCPPT are used as electric-charging locations. This paper studied the performance results from the simulation of a real-world transfer-hub system and developed certain vehicle-routing schemes to handle the specifics of EV operations. Alternative ways to schedule the charging of EVs were modeled with different insertion heuristics within vehicle-routing optimization. The results showed that the battery-charging limitations of EVs do not significantly affect the efficiency of the HCPPT system and revealed the importance of details such as the number of required charging stations at the hub locations.},

Abstract: 3 Information exchanging between vehicles and infrastructure is critically important to 4 ensure traffic safety and efficiency, Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure System (CVIS) is a 5 subsystem of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to better facilitate this process, and 6 provides a vehicle with the capability to communicate with other vehicles and 7 infrastructure equipped with communication modules. CVIS has been developing 8 continuously at Tongji University since 2006. 9 This paper describes a proof of concept of TongJi Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure 10 System (TJ-CVIS). First, the extensible system architecture including hardware and 11 software implementations are introduced supporting vehicle-vehicle, 12 vehicle-infrastructure communication and high reliability safety applications. Then, the 13 feasibility of TJ-CVIS was tested using four scenario experiments (three field tests at 14 Tongji and one on the streets of Taicang city) with IEEE 802.11p/3G communications and 15 high accuracy positioning technologies, including Basic Character Test, Map-Based 16 Intersection Collision Warning System, Map-Based Overtaking Warning System and 17 Transit Signal Priority System. Finally, results from the field demonstrations show that 18 the TJ-CVIS is capable for developing time-critical applications and improving traffic 19 safety and efficiency in some specific scenarios. 20},

The road mask can remove false detections and reduce the computation 3 time. The road mask is estimated based on the smoothed positions of vehicles tracked by the 4 short-term and long-term trackers in the software tool TRAVIS in a fixed number of frames, i.e., 5 one cycle. Firstly, raw vehicle positions obtained from TRAVIS are smoothed using a Kalman 6 filter. Secondly, the slope of the roadway is estimated based on the smoothed positions of these 7 vehicles. Thirdly, falsely detected vehicles are removed based on the criterion that the slope of 8 the lines connecting two vehicles in the same lane should be close to the slope of roadway. 9 Finally, the road mask is generated according to the minimal and maximal intercepts of the 10 approximated roadway edges in one cycle. Experimental results show that the estimation of the 11 road mask is accurate and that the improvement of the correct detection and tracking rate and the 12 computation time is significant. 13 14 Key Words: Road mask, roadway edge detection, vehicle detection and tracking, airborne 15 imagery 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {The objective of this study is to investigate the properties of network-level traffic flow relationships in a freeway network with the use of commonly available loop detector data. The impact of the spatial and temporal distribution of congestion in a selected network on the shape and properties of the flow-density relation is investigated, with emphasis on the formation and characterization of hysteresis patterns. Accordingly, a path-dependent characterization of hysteresis patterns in freeway networks is introduced and illustrated conceptually as well as through empirical observations. Comparison of the spatial and temporal distribution of congestion throughout a selected subnetwork on different days suggests a relationship between the size of the hysteresis loop and the inhomogeneity of the traffic distribution. The maximum network average flow is not a constant value but varies across different days. In addition, for the same value of average network occupancy, the variation of occupancy is higher during the recovery period compared with the loading period. The observed large variation in network occupancy during recovery implies the formation of fragmented queues and traffic instability. A chaotic pattern is also to be expected in the networkwide flow-occupancy plane when the spatial distribution of link densities is inhomogeneous and the average network occupancy remains consistently high and roughly unchanged for successive time intervals. Overall, the study results provide a deeper understanding of the properties of networkwide relations on freeway networks.},

Left-turn 7 waiting areas are usually set up beyond the stop bar at an exclusive left-turn lane or dual left-turn 8 lanes. Such design allows left-turning vehicles to enter and wait at the left-turn waiting area after 9 the initiation of the through phase. This paper evaluated the operational impacts of left-turn 10 waiting areas at signalized intersections. The arrival and departure processes of left-turning 11 vehicles at exclusive left-turn lanes with and without waiting areas were compared. A procedure 12 was proposed for estimating the capacity of an exclusive left-turn lane with a waiting area. Using 13 data collected from 12 approaches at 9 signalized intersections, cross-sectional analysis was 14 conducted to compare the start-up lost time and saturation headways of left-turn passenger cars 15 for four different scenarios. The capacity of exclusive left-turn lanes with different sizes of left-16 turn waiting areas was compared. The results indicated that using left-turn waiting areas 17 increased capacity of exclusive left-turn lanes and the capacity gains would increase with the 18 increase in the storage capacity of the left-turn waiting area. 19 20},

Such systems are already implemented in many western countries. 7 However, they are just being developed in countries like India where automated traffic data 8 collection is still in infancy. This paper presents the development of a completely automated bus 9 arrival time prediction system prototype for such traffic conditions, integrating all the above 10 components. The reported bus arrival prediction system uses real-time data from GPS units 11 installed in public transport buses. The algorithm developed was a model-based approach using 12 Kalman filtering technique. Travel time data from the previous two buses that plied the same 13 route were used as inputs for the algorithm, obviating the need for a historic data base. The 14 development of a fully automated, real-time system involved solving many practical problems 15 such as automated data quality control, communication delays, integration of real time data with 16 the algorithm, taking into account practical difficulties such as bus break down, congestion, 17 overtaking, traffic jam, and common India-specific difficulties such as abrupt stoppage of 18 services, unscheduled changes in routes, frequent shifting of buses from one route to another. 19 The predicted arrival time information can be disseminated to the passengers through display 20 boards in bus stops and buses. Travel time information for selected origin destination can be 21 disseminated through web sites and SMS as well. This involves integration of the output of the 22 algorithm with the information display systems which is also carried out in the study. The 23 complete system developed can be used for on-field bus arrival prediction wherever buses are 24 equipped with automated vehicle location systems.},

abstract = {1 This paper presents a dynamic queueing network approach to estimate freight 2 transportation network performance under disruptions. In the event of natural or man-made 3 disasters, part of the freight transportation network might be impacted, which leads to reduced 4 terminal service rates and/or link capacities. To estimate the impacts of such disasters and to 5 develop emergency operation plans that can be taken in the immediate aftermath, it is necessary 6 for a freight transportation network model to explicitly represent the reductions of terminal 7 service rates and link capacities, reflecting various degrees of disaster damages. To this end, the 8 present study adopts an analytical, point-wise fluid-based approximation approach to develop an 9 intermodal freight transportation network model. The freight transportation system is modeled as 10 a non-stationary queueing network, where terminals are considered as servers. By loading time-11 dependent shipment demands to the intermodal paths, the proposed model is able to estimate the 12 delays experienced at terminals and hence to evaluate the network performance under disruptions. 13 In addition, different service and routing plans in the degraded network can also be evaluated in 14 real-time to support online emergency management. Numerical examples demonstrate that the 15 proposed approach is effective and efficient in capturing performance degradations under 16 disruptions and hence suitable for estimating the impact of disasters on a freight transportation 17 network.},

abstract = {The choice of bicycle as the travel mode is closely associated with the pattern of daily travel activity. However, it is unclear whether the usage of bicycle is determined by the activity pattern or the choice of bicycle is prior to the planning of an activity. This study aims to investigate the interdependency between bicycle usage and activity patterns, and capture the decision order between them. To achieve the research objective, data was extracted from the household travel survey in urban area of Bengbu, China. The co-evolutionary approach combined with multinomial logit (MNL) model was used to capture the interrelationship between bicycle usage and activity patterns. The analytical procedure included five steps: sort of bicycle usage and activity patterns, statistical analysis, MNL model specification, co-evolutionary modeling process and the final model evaluation. It turned out that on average 4.25 cycles were needed to reach a final decision for both bicycle usage and activity pattern choice facets. The higher number of iterations implied the interactions in the order of the two choice facets. The model estimation results showed that in the majority of the cases, activity pattern is made in prior to mode choice. In other words, travelers made the decision on bicycling or not according to the pattern of their daily activities. Furthermore, this study also found that the patterns of subsistence activities had larger impacts on the choice of bicycle compared to the maintenance and recreational activities. The findings of this study can help better understand travelers' determination on bicycle choice and make policies to promote the use of bicycle.},

abstract = {The Highway Capacity Manual, HCM, 2000 displayed a figure, Exhibit 10-15, for the purpose of forecasting the likely intersection control types for future facilities. Since this figure is from a source external to HCM, this paper employs HCM methodologies for the estimation and comparison of control delay, the choice measure of effectiveness, at intersections controlled by signal, all-way stop signs, and two-way stop signs to verify it. After detailed analyses of more than 5,000 cases using Highway Capacity Software (HCS), results of control delay with various control types under a wide range of demand conditions were charted for comparison with Exhibit 10-15. It is found that Exhibit 10-15 is inconsistent with the results from HCM methodologies and, perhaps, should be replaced with the figures developed in this paper. Based on the criterion of minimizing delay alone, it was found that if demand is unbalanced, between major and minor streets, and if the traffic is low on minor streets, two-way stop control, or TWSC, should be used; if demand is somewhat balanced and minor streets sees low to medium traffic, all-way stop control, or AWSC, is preferred; otherwise, signal control should be favored. The paper also demonstrates that the percentage of left-turning traffic has a significant effect on decisions regarding intersection control types.},

ABSTRACT 2 This paper focuses on the vehicular mode choice decisions of businesses and commercial sectors 3 in urban areas, with the special attention on the unique trip chaining behavior of commercial 4 vehicles. A large-scale commercial vehicle travel diary data collected in the Denver 5 metropolitan area is used for analysis, in which travels activities for four major purposes such as 6 business meetings, drop-off/pick-up people, pick-up/deliver freight, and service calls, were 7 assessed. Five vehicular modes, such as autos, pickups, sport utility vehicles (SUV), single-unit 8 trucks, and combination trucks, were reported as the main mode alternatives for commercial 9 travels. The survey data is sorted to trip-based and tour-based data separately, to consider two 10 potentials ways to measure commercial vehicle travel activities, i.e., trip defined as the travel 11 from one stop to another versus tour that represents the entire travel journey starting from and 12 ending at the vehicle home base. Discrete choice modeling techniques, particularly the 13 Multinomial Logit (MNL) and the Nested Logit (NL) modeling approaches, were applied to each 14 data set to quantify the impacts of various attributes on mode choice decisions. The modeling 15 results show tour is a better measurement unit that is intuitively and quantitatively more precise 16 in modeling commercial sectors' mode choice behavior. In addition, four types of attributes, 17 including travel, destination, cargo, and company related attributes, are found to have significant 18 impacts on mode choices. The quantitative influences of these attributes indicate that commercial 19 sectors' mode choice is travel specific, territory varying, cargo sensitive, and company oriented. 20 21 Keywords: commercial vehicles, mode choice, tours/trip chains, Multinomial Logit (MNL) 22 models, Nested Logit (NL) models, freight transportation, urban areas 23},

abstract = {This paper presents the results of a research study conducted to identify roadway characteristics that significantly influence the perception of the quality of service provided to bicyclists on urban streets. The data used in this study was collected in the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) 3-70 Multimodal Level of Service for Urban Streets research study. The data for the bicycle mode was gathered using the video simulation techniques from Tampa, Florida on urban streets with varying geometric and operational characteristics. Ten video clips were shown to 145 participants, ranging in age and gender, at four locations:  Oakland, California; Chicago, Illinois; New Haven, Connecticut; and College Station, Texas. The participants were asked to rate these clips for the bicycle facilities on the scale of 1-6 with 6 being equal to the level of service (LOS) rating “A” and 1 being equal to LOS “F”.  Taking advantage of 1,400 data points collected in the NCHRP 3-70 study, this study utilized cumulative logistics regression modeling technique to obtain the entire distribution of bicycle LOS under a given set of conditions. The model results indicate that with the absence of bicycle lanes or shoulders, the LOS rating for a bike mode reduces by 1.22 units.  Additionally, on roadways with speed limit {\textgreater} 30 mph, the LOS rating for the bicycle mode reduces by 1.6 units and for travel lanes number greater than 1, the LOS rating reduces by 0.64 units.  If there are no unsignalized conflicts per mile on the roadway, the LOS rating increases by 0.42 units.  The results of the cumulative regression model agree with the perception that the presence of bicycle lanes or shoulders increases the comfort level of bicycle users, while higher auto speeds, higher number of lanes, and presence of unsignalized conflicts along roadway segment causes impedance to the bicycle mode.  Based on the cumulative logistics regression model, cumulative probability and individual probability distribution for each LOS rating were plotted. The individual probability calculations reveal that the probability of rating a roadway segment without a bicycle lane as “D” or worse is 10 percent higher than a roadway segment with a bicycle lane or shoulder. Also the probability of rating a roadway segment with a bicycle lane as B or better is 14 percent higher than the probability of rating a roadway segment without a bicycle lane or shoulder.},

abstract = {23 24 The use of traditional point detectors and floating cars are useful for validating the potential of 25 Bluetooth technology for estimating average travel times. But in order to illustrate the potential 26 of Bluetooth for more sophisticated applications such as measuring origin destination trips and 27 deriving travel time distributions, an equally sophisticated validation methodology is required. 28 This paper describes one validation methodology using non-aggregated video data. The 29 methodology involves the human matching of video images using license plate numbers and 30 vehicle features such as make, model, color and other distinguishing characteristics. The 31 application of this methodology to a special event is described using a sample size of 32 approximately 1,000 vehicles, which is comparable to other studies of accuracy of Location-33 Based Technologies. As distinguished from definitions based on the total number of vehicles, the 34 sampling rate here is defined as the percentage of vehicles tracked by Bluetooth of those that 35 traveled the entire origin to destination path. One case study result is that the standard deviation 36 of Bluetooth travel times is large due to the small average sampling rate of 6 percent. One useful 37 measure produced by Bluetooth is the estimate of out-of-town vehicles versus in-town vehicles 38 using MAC address comparisons over multiple days. One problem encountered with Bluetooth 39 journey times is that it could include intermediate stops such as to gas stations and convenience 40 stores. The potential to use Bluetooth for measuring origin-destination percentages and travel 41 time distributions is shown using the validation data. The focus of this paper is on the validation 42 methodology and not inference thus no statistical testing is discussed. 43 44 45 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

This technical note first examines travel time modeling and estimation with the random modeling of speeds, and then a general approach is presented for travel time estimation based on speed distributions. Because normal and lognormal distributions are commonly employed for speed modeling in traffic engineering, travel time estimation is further discussed concerning distributions. Most probability distributions (including normal and lognormal) assume that a modeled random variable spreads over the whole or half-range of the real number axis, but in practice, any traffic quantity of interest makes sense only within a limited value range. The concept of truncated distributions is introduced, and specifically, the probability features of truncated normal and lognormal distributions are explored concerning the discussed travel time estimation issue.},

abstract = {The fuel and electricity consumptions of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are sensitive to the variation of daily vehicle miles traveled (DVMT). Though some previous studies have assumed DVMT to follow a Gamma distribution, such an assumption is yet to be validated. This study finds that the Gamma assumption is valid in the context of PHEV energy analysis, based on continuous GPS travel data of 382 vehicles, each tracked for at least 183 days. Small prediction errors, resulting from the Gamma assumption, are found in terms of PHEV fuel use, electricity use, and energy cost. The finding that the Gamma distribution is valid and reliable paves the way for the Gamma distribution to be applied for analyzing energy uses of PHEVs in the real world. The Gamma distribution can be easily specified with very few pieces of driver information and is relatively easy for mathematical manipulation. Validated using real world travel data, the Gamma distribution can now be used with better confidence in a variety of applications, such as developing vehicle consumer choice models, quantifying range anxiety for battery electric vehicles, investigating the role of charging infrastructure, and constructing online calculators that provide personal estimates of PHEV energy use.},

Cats, Nabavi, {\'{O}}lafsd{\'{o}}ttir, Burghout, Andreasson and Koutsopoulos 2 ABSTRACT 1 Transit operations involve several inherent sources of uncertainty including dispatching time 2 from the origin terminal, travel time between stops and dwell time at stops. Bus holding 3 control strategies are among the prominent methods applied by transit operators in order to 4 improve transit performance and level of service. The common practice is to regulate 5 departures from a limited number of stops by holding buses until the scheduled time. An 6 analysis of the performance of a high-frequency bus line in Stockholm based on Automatic 7 Vehicle Location (AVL) data shows that this control strategy is not effective in improving 8 service regularity along the line. It also indicates that drivers adjust their speed based on 9 performance objectives. Implications of a control strategy that regulates departures from all 10 stops based on the headways from the preceding bus and the following bus were evaluated 11 using BusMezzo, a transit operations simulation model. The results suggest that this strategy 12 can improve service performance considerably from both passengers and operator " s 13 perspectives. In addition, it implies cooperative operations as the decisions of each driver are 14 interdependent of other drivers with mutual corrections. The difficulties in realizing the 15 benefits of the proposed strategy in practice such as dispatching from the origin terminal, 16 driver scheduling and compliance are discussed. The implications of several practical 17 considerations are assessed by conducting a sensitivity analysis as part of the preparations to 18 a field experiment designed to test the proposed control strategy.},

Two types of lanes, bus lane and general lanes are discussed in associate with their specific impedance functions. Obviously, the average passenger volume of a bus (60 passengers per vehic le in this paper) is larger than a private car (2 passengers per vehicle), therefore, on condition of invariant total passenger trip volume, modal shift between the two traffic modes will make influence to the traffic volume of the road. A combined model combining bus proportion and impedance function was developed, and travel speed curves of buses and cars under various bus proportion were described. The result shows that in accordance with specif ic passenger tr ip volume, there will be an ideal bus proport ion, in which car travels are willing to shift to buses, and road traffic system will be optimized as well.},

abstract = {Recent interest in the topic of random scale heterogeneity in discrete choice data has led to the development of specialised tools such as the G-MNL model, as well as repeated claims that studies which fail to separate scale heterogeneity from heterogeneity in individual coefficients are likely to produce biased results. Contrary to this, Hess and Rose (2012) show that separate identification of the two components is not in fact possible in a random coefficients model using a typical linear in parameters specification, and that any gains in performance are potentially just the result of more flexible distributional assumptions. On the other hand, linking scale heterogeneity to measured characteristics of the respondents is likely to yield only limited insights, while using respondent reported measures of survey understanding or analyst captured measures such as survey response time puts an analyst at risk of measurement error and endogeneity bias. The contribution made in this paper is to put forward a hybrid model in which survey engagement is treated as a latent variable which is used to model the values of a number of indicators of survey engagement in a measurement model component, as well as explaining scale heterogeneity within the choice model. This model overcomes some of the shortcomings of earlier work, permitting us to link part of the heterogeneity across respondents to differences in scale, while also allowing us to make use of indicators of survey engagement without risk of endogeneity bias. Results from an empirical application show a strong link between the two model components as well as arguably more reasonable substantive outputs for the choice model component. ?? 2013 Elsevier BV.

abstract = {1 Urban transit guidelines yield optimal network characteristics relating to, e.g., stop density, 2 network density, service frequency, and network hierarchy. These guidelines are typically 3 derived from a simple analytical formulation of the bi-level network-design problem. This 4 optimization problem can be solved analytically only when simplifying assumptions are made 5 regarding the demand distribution, local constraints, and travel behavior. The primary objective 6 of this paper is to verify the validity of these assumptions underlying analytically-derived 7 guidelines. To this end, a new numerical optimization tool is developed and applied to the design 8 of several detailed topological transit networks (including routes and line specific properties) for 9 the medium-sized Dutch city of Utrecht. Average network characteristics are then derived, and a 10 comparison is made between the former analytically-derived guidelines, the new numerically-11 derived optimal characteristics, and the characteristics of the present network. It is found that 12 both analytically-derived and numerically-derived guidelines recommend lower stop densities, 13 coarser networks, and higher frequencies, than found in real-life. Furthermore, the introduction 14 of zone lines would improve the network quality, while express lines are only beneficial in case 15 of large demand concentrations. Although existing (typically analytically-derived) guidelines are 16 found to be in line with those numerically derived, the former are less suitable due to the fact that 17 local constraints are not accounted for and only average network characteristics are computed. 18 Hence, the detailed network designs that are numerically-derived in this study are easier to 19 implement. 20 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

ZHOU, XU 1 ABSTRACT 1 At present, the rail transit system has achieved network operation in many major cities of China 2 (such as Shanghai, Beijing, etc.). With the successful application of automatic fare collection 3 system (AFC), a passenger can buy only one ticket at the origin station and complete the travel 4 between two stations of different rail lines, which brings great convenience for passengers. 5 However, there may be many paths between the origin station and the destination station, and the 6 path chosen by passengers cannot be determined simply. Thus, the problem of passenger flow 7 assignment on the network is raised. Simultaneously, the AFC system can record the entry and exit 8 time of passengers exactly, and the train operation plan can be obtained by train timetable. The 9 range of feasible paths chosen by one passenger may be very narrow by considering the entry and 10 exit time and the train operating information. In this paper, a passenger flow assignment model is 11 set up and the algorithm process is designed, which calculates the chosen possibility of every 12 feasible path and then match the passenger to the most likely path. Finally, take the Beijing 13 subway actual passenger data for example. The model and algorithm are verified.},

Pedestrian delay is usually modeled with the assumption that pedestrian arrivals are random and pedestrians enter the crosswalk only during green interval. However, it is often observed that pedestrians accept gaps and cross during red time to minimize their own delay. Field study has been carried out in residential areas in the downtown city of Shanghai, China. Totally 92 cycles with 1677 pedestrians at 3 crosswalks have been observed. Delays experienced by pedestrians were found to be 1{\%} to 80{\%} lower than those that would be predicted with complete signal compliance under different traffic situations. Pedestrian arrival and departure characteristics have been precisely analyzed, and a new delay model based on " arrival-departure curves " has been developed and calibrated. Besides pedestrian compliance rate of those who arrive during non-green interval, other parameters representing pedestrian gap acceptance behavior and proceeding features during red time have been introduced, which are influenced by saturation degree of lanes at entrances and exits, availability of gaps between consecutive phases, or between queuing vehicles and platoons from upstream intersections etc. The model has been validated using the field data and a comparison of measured delay and estimated delay provided by different models has been carried out, the results indicated that the new model could estimate pedestrian delay, and the method was widely applicable.},

Pedestrians feel safest when walking on the independent sidewalk, while feel the most dangerous at unsignalized mid-block crosswalks. And pedestrians have higher heart rate when they are running at the red light and under the conditions of external interference as they feel nervous, such as influenced by electrical bicycles' noise in the sidewalk. In addition, it is verified that pedestrians usually get impatient as waiting time increases.

With this regard, the adhesion properties of pavement aggregates to 4 road paints play a major role. In this research, the effects of two different aggregates from two sources 5 in Tehran (one highly siliceous from west and the other less siliceous from east of Tehran), were 6 investigated in conjunction with a waterborne traffic paint. Microsurfacing samples were prepared 7 using the two aggregates separately. The waterborne paint was applied at a fixed rate and the samples 8 were tested under Wet Track Abrasion Test (WTAT). This latter was modified from the original 9 standard method, using a rotating rod that contained an abrasive head. Testing conditions were also 10 varied in order to simulate field conditions. These were set at three different conditions of dry, wet-11 salty and prolonged wet-salty conditions. 12 The samples, after testing with WTAT, were evaluated using two different standard methods, namely 13 AS/NZS 4049 from Australia and EN 1824 from Europe. In addition, Scanning Electron Micrograph 14 (SEM) photos were taken at the interface areas of the paint and the two aggregate particles. The 15 results showed that the adopted WTAT was effective in evaluating the wear resistance of road 16 markings. In addition, the waterborne traffic paint exhibited acceptable adhesion with both 17 aggregates.

It is assumed that there are two existing road-based travel modes (i.e. 7 car and bus modes) from different locations of the corridor to the Central Business District 8 (CBD). These two road-based travel modes would obviously influence each other in 9 operation when congestion appears in the road-based corridor. In the proposed model, the 10 travelers are assumed to behave as prospect maximizers over years. It is shown that under a 11 stable intermodal prospect theory based user equilibrium (PTUE) condition, the efficiency 12 gains arising from increased transit use by railway improvements are passed on to the 13 travelers as the generalized costs of travel are reduced and the most preferable travel mode 14 would be changed over years with the improvements in railway service level. The population 15 density along the multi-modal transportation corridor is varied over years and its impacts on 16 the railway improvement schemes are taken into account in analysis.

abstract = {1 2 Researchers in the transportation field rely heavily on the traditional random-digit dialing phone 3 survey and increasingly on on-line surveys. Many studies have looked at the strengths and 4 weaknesses of the two survey methods with respect to the representativeness of the resulting 5 sample as well as descriptive differences in responses to the survey questions. However, few of 6 them have examined the inferential differences between the survey methods, for example, by 7 comparing the coefficients of models of travel behavior estimated for each sample separately, to 8 assess the degree to which the models yield consistent conclusions. In this paper we compare 9 both descriptive and inferential results from on-line and phone surveys with identical questions 10 conducted in Davis, CA. A split-sample approach was employed to examine the performance of 11 models developed from the on-line survey data. Results show that although bicycling behavior 12 does not differ across the two survey samples, many socio-demographic characteristics do. The 13 models developed from each sample have several statistically indistinguishable coefficients but 14 also notable differences in key explanatory factors. In addition, the models of bicycling behavior 15 estimated with on-line data do not do a good job of predicting bicycling behavior as measured in 16 the phone survey. Thus, the two survey methods in this case lead to different inferential results 17 with different policy implications.},

Given 4 the prevalence of overcrowded transit vehicles, this paper conducts both quantitative and qualitative 5 studies, especially focusing on re-modeling in-vehicle crowding cost functions for different transit modes. 6 Three numerical case studies show that applying distinct in-vehicle crowding cost functions for different 7 transit modes has implications not only for the cost structure of transit systems and the magnitude of 8 optimal service provision, but also for the presence of economies of scale in consumption. 9 10},

abstract = {Crash modification factors (CMFs) are used to measure the safety impacts from changes in specific geometric characteristics. Their development has gained much interest following the adoption of CMFs by the recently released Highway Safety Manual (HSM) and SafetyAnalyst tool. This paper aims at developing CMFs for interchange influence areas on urban four-lane freeways in the state of Florida. The need to model freeway interchange areas apart from their basic mainlines has been recognized by SafetyAnalyst. Different methods for developing CMFs can be found in the literature. This paper introduces a promising data mining method known as multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) for CMF development. MARS is characterized by its capability to accommodate the nonlinearity in crash predictors, which can be a mixture of continuous and categorical variables. In addition, MARS allows the impact of more than one geometric variable to be simultaneously considered when estimating CMFs. Separate CMFs were developed for inside and outside shoulder widths within the interchange influence areas. The results showed that MARS produced CMFs with higher confidence than those using the negative binomial model. The influential variables identified included the inside shoulder width, outside shoulder width, traffic volume, shoulder type, and speed limit. It was also found that inside shoulders less than 4 ft and 4 to 6 ft experienced safety improvement relative to the 4-ft width.},

This is a study of a specific approach at a roundabout that was previously three separate “T” intersections, one of which was a high crash location.

Gender and whether or not a cell phone was used were also recorded. Using Raff's definition, the critical gap values were calculated and then converted to average control delay times for comparison using four different methods, one of which was physical measurement. It was found that the {\textless}20, 70+, and cell phone groups had higher critical gap values, but not enough data was collected within each of these groups to statistically verify the accuracy. Only 26 drivers were under the age of 20; 64 being 70 years old or older; and 162 using a cell phone. The average measured delay times was compared to standard queuing theory and new equations offered by the 2010 edition of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM2010). It was found that the HCM2010 over-estimates the delay times, which has the potential to give the incorrect impression that a roundabout is not a viable option when it may very well be.},

In urban settings, and more precisely on signalized networks, previous researches underline the difficulty of assessing travel time accurately due to the interrupted nature of traffic flow (intersections, signalized intersections, . . .). In the present work, an urban traffic flow dynamic model is proposed: a reservoir-based model. So, as the proposed model provides time evolution of a space-state vector, a sequential Monte-Carlo technique is then applied in order to estimate and even to predict travel time in real time. To validate the proposed model and to test its robustness, an analysis of model sensitivity has been carried out using the experiments design method. As we shown in this article, this model can provide a good estimate, even if input data are subject to uncertainties and biases. The analysis of factors permits us to conclude that the travel time decreases as the downstream supply increase. Moreover, the use of Monte-Carlo sequence is very relevant in order to reconstruct missing data.},

ABSTRACT 1 2 One of the mobility challenges facing Texas and other high-population states in the coming years 3 is the rising travel demand along major intercity travel corridors. Texas, like many other states, 4 is looking at the role of increased passenger rail service may play in absorbing some of the travel 5 demand from crowded highway and air travel corridors in the coming years. In the mean time, 6 intercity bus services have a long history of serving many communities along many of Texas 7 major corridors. Generally an industry that has experienced declining service levels over the 8 past several decades, new services like BoltBus, Megabus, and others have proven the bus has a 9 role in serving intercity passenger travel demands. This paper explores three intercity passenger 10 rail scenarios in Texas and how intercity bus services can work in conjunction with the rail 11 operations. 12 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

In the conventional transportation model or the traffic monitoring or data 6 collection system, the spot average travel speed during a particular time interval (i.e. 7 1-min, 2-min, 10-min, etc.) is always used to characterize the traffic performance and 8 vehicle activities.

Akar and Guldmann 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 This study analyses the determinants of vehicle miles traveled (VMT) using data from the 3 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS). First, total VMT models are estimated 4 across all households. Next, the survey sample is segmented by the number of vehicles 5 owned, and separate models are estimated for each sample segment. Finally, focusing on two-6 vehicle households, a seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) model is formulated to analyze 7 total household VMT and the VMT share of each vehicle. Household increases in income, 8 number of vehicles, workers, adults and children, all lead to higher VMT. Population density 9 and gasoline cost negatively affect VMT. Some of the more interesting findings of the total 10 VMT models are related to telecommuting and vehicle characteristics. The results indicate 11 that having the option to telecommute and owning SUVs, pickup trucks, vans or hybrid 12 vehicles increase VMT. If the driver of a vehicle is female, older, unemployed or does not 13 hold a bachelor's degree, that vehicle's share of the total household VMT decreases. If this 14 vehicle is a SUV, pickup truck, van, or hybrid, it is likely to be used more. These significant 15 effects have important implications for understanding the substitution patterns in multi-16 vehicle households.},

The traditional Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) 3 flow continuity equation is combined with the Van Aerde traffic stream model to generate a new 4 speed-based partial differential equation (PDE). The numerical solution of the PDE is obtained 5 using the Godunov discretization scheme within a particle filter to generate a time series equation 6 that characterizes the temporal and spatial relationship of traffic speed data. This speed 7 formulation is further enhanced by incorporating ramp flows and enhancing the boundary 8 conditions. The numerical solution and near-term prediction accuracy (5-minute prediction) of 9 the new speed formulation is compared with the conservative density formulation derived from 10 LWR. Although the proposed speed formulation is non-conservative and not equivalent to the 11 solution of LWR under the same initial and boundary conditions, it produces significant 12 enhancements in the traffic state predictions. Specifically, the prediction error using simulated I-13 66 data is in the range of 3.0 to 4.5 km/h for a 5-minute prediction horizon. This error is 14 approximately half the prediction error of the LWR formulation. Similarly, the traffic stream 15 density prediction error is approximately half that of the LWR formulation. 16 17 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Properly specified pavement deterioration 3 performance models are essential for accurate predictions of future pavement conditions, which 4 are crucial for identifying the least-cost maintenance and rehabilitation strategies that maintain 5 the desired levels of pavement condition. Pavement deterioration is a complex mechanism which 6 involves not only structural damage but also the interaction between traffic, material, 7 environment and time. Past research investigations have based their cost analyses on 8 deterministic pavement deterioration prediction models, which lack the ability to capture the 9 random part of the pavement's true field behavior. Probabilistic models based on observations 10 of in-service facilities allow a more realistic representation of pavement performance. In this 11 research study, pavement crack initiation models were developed based on stochastic hazard rate 12 modeling techniques. Pavement condition survey data for the highway system in the State of 13 California was used for the model development to allow representation of the effects of a wide 14 range of facilities and environmental conditions. Additionally, several scenarios for pavement 15 maintenance were compared with the control case of rehabilitation only. These performance 16 results were used with available cost information to develop life-cycle cost comparisons. This 17 research confirmed the notion that pavement preventive maintenance practices do reduce long 18 term roadway maintenance costs.},

ABSTRACT 1 With the rapid increase of automobile ownership, Beijing, China is now facing serious 2 challenging issues in regards to traffic congestion and vehicle emissions. On the list of 3 alternative solutions to these issues, it is widely recognized that developing and 4 improving public transportation systems is one of the most feasible and promising 5 strategies due to its high passenger carrying capacity and low pollution on per 6 passenger basis. To implement any viable public transit strategies, a comprehensive 7 evaluation is always necessary, and a crucial component of this evaluation process is 8 to accurately assess emissions and fuel consumption incurred by transit vehicles, 9 which requires the use of driving cycles as the essential element. This paper is 10 intended to develop city-specific driving cycles for transit buses for Beijing. The 11 operational data of 126 buses are collected by using the portable GPS for three types 12 of transit lines, BRT line, express line, and regular line. By analyzing the operating 13 characteristics, a methodology for developing driving cycles is proposed based on the 14 parameter of Vehicle Specific Power (VSP) distribution. Then, by applying this 15 methodology, driving cycles for BRT, express, and regular lines are developed 16 accordingly. Finally, the developed driving cycles are evaluated. It is shown from 17 the analysis that the proposed driving cycles are able to reflect the real-world 18 operating characteristics of transit buses better than other driving cycles. Further, the 19 emission factors generated based on the developed driving cycles are found to be 5{\%} 20 lower in average than those predicted by using the default driving cycles in MOVES. 21 22},

The project, being 3 performed in Europe, is attempting to focus and drive forward the issue of 'model validity' and thereby calibration 4 and validation methods and their usage in simulation. As part of this, an assessment of the state-of-the-practice has 5 been performed, examining among other things how models are applied, what procedures are used for calibration 6 and what guidelines are followed. The basis for this state-of-the-practice, is a web based survey which ran in the 7 latter quarter of 2010 and obtained 215 responses. The paper details the findings of this survey which, while lengthy, 8 substantiates two clear messages. 9 Firstly, that Calibration, Validation and Sensitivity analysis although now more widespread than was 10 previously thought, are still far from being required procedure, and secondly that while guidelines are increasingly 11 in use, governing for example number of simulation runs, there are still many regions where this does not occur and 12 indeed there is still much reliance on personal experience and habit, especially in situations where network 13 characteristics become large. The results of the survey underpin the need for further focus on the use of models and 14 procedures for calibration and validation, and indicate, more specifically, the areas that MULTITUDE will focus on 15 in the near future. 16 INTRODUCTION 17 Traffic and transportation applications are rapidly expanding in scope given their potential impacts on community 18 and environmental decision making. These applications range from planning and assessment of road infrastructures 19 to evaluation of advanced traffic management and information systems (e.g. dynamic hard-shoulder running) and to 20 testing technologies and systems that aim to increase safety, capacity and environmental efficiency of vehicles and 21 roads (e.g. Cooperative Systems and Intelligent Speed Adaptation). The complexity and scale of these problems 22 dictate that accurate and dynamic traffic simulation models, rather than analytical methods, are increasingly being 23 used for these purposes. 24 Many commercial traffic simulation models are currently available, and even more models have been 25 developed by research institutes and research groups all over the world. However, simulation results need to be 26 interpreted with great care. First of all, the quality of the simulation models must be considered. In addition, the 27 reproducibility of the simulation results is important i.e., the ability for the results to be accurately replicated by 28 someone else working independently, using the same (or different) traffic simulation model. 29 One of the most important steps in this field is therefore, to develop methods and procedures to help 30 developers and users to apply simulation models correctly, effectively and reproducibly. Motivations and solutions 31 to these problems should ideally be found in the traffic models themselves and in the way they are applied, 32 following an approach which is often half-way between deductive and inductive, " whereby one first develops (via 33 physical reasoning and/or adequate idealisations and/or physical analogies) a basic mathematical modelling structure 34 and then fits this specific structure (its parameters) to real data " (1). The latter phase is generally referred to as 35 model calibration (with validation described as a test whether the model gives a sufficiently accurate representation 36 of reality (2) using independent data from that used for calibration). 37 Unfortunately, adequate calibration and validation against suitable observed data, are far from common 38 practice in the field of traffic simulation (3) and at present, no standardised methods exist, with most efforts and 39 resources having been focused on model (and software) development. The aim of COST action TU0903 " Methods 40 and tools for supporting the use, calibration and validation of traffic simulation models " (also called MULTITUDE) 41 is therefore to develop, implement and promote the use of methods and procedures for supporting the use of traffic 42 simulation models, especially on the topics of model calibration and validation, to ensure their proper use and the 43 validity of the results and the decisions made on them (4). (COST is an intergovernmental framework for European 44 Cooperation in Science and Technology, allowing the coordination of nationally-funded research on a European 45 level (5). A COST Action is a network of (mostly) European scientists (6), to cooperating and exchanging expertise 46 with financial support for joint activities such as conferences, short-term scientific exchanges, training schools and 47 publications). 48 One of the first activities of MULTITUDE has been to undertake a state-of-the-art review of traffic 49 simulation research and practice. This paper presents some first results from a web survey undertaken to assess the 50 current 'state of practice' and to identify, arguably for the first time, common practice in the use of traffic simulation 51 tools, covering in particular, issues of model calibration and validation against actual traffic data. In the survey, 52 respondents were asked which models they are using and how they have set up and used the model in their last 53},

The impact of pavement conditions on the performance of the specific treatment was 6 investigated in terms of pavement performance curves, which were developed for the treatments 7 under varying pavement condition levels at each traffic network based on the PennDOT Overall 8 Pavement Index (OPI) data. A relationship between pavement life extension and pavement 9 condition prior to the treatment was established. Finally, LCCA was conducted to quantify the 10 impact of the pavement condition on the performance of the preservative treatments in terms of 11 benefit cost (B/C) ratio and net equivalent uniform annual cost (∆EUAC). Results indicated there 12 is an optimum pavement condition, and associated age (or a range of condition or age) when the 13 benefit cost associated with a treatment is maximized. 14 15},

In this paper we analyze the implementation of WIM systems and develop a model that optimizes the number of WIM checkpoints and their locations in a road network with stochastic traffic patterns and truck weights. The problem is formulated as a stochastic program and the Monte-Carlo sampling method is applied to minimize the total cost including the investment in WIM systems and the expected damage to the infrastructure due to overweight trucks.

abstract = {Previous work proposed an optimal control framework for modeling driver behavior. Drivers were assumed to minimize the predicted subjective effort of their control actions, taking into account the anticipated actions of other drivers. The framework was generic. Several assumptions and simplifications had to be made; this factor hampered the applicability of the framework. One of these assumptions was that the behavior of other vehicles in the flow was stationary during the prediction horizon. Furthermore, the resulting model was computationally complex. A new approach based on the generic optimal control framework is proposed for modeling and computing driving behavior. The model can deal with the dynamics of the vehicles to which a driver reacts. At the same time, the computational complexity is small and does not increase exponentially with the complexity of the prediction model or with the size of the control vector. The mathematical solution approach is presented and illustrated with several examples. Face validity of the model is shown, and an application of the theory in the field of automated vehicle guidance is discussed. In particular for these applications, the proposed optimization approach allows for the computation of cooperative driving strategies that minimize a generic range of objective functions. The improvements in performance made by cooperation are substantial, as illustrated by several examples.},

ABSTRACT Slope rounding is discussed in the Roadside Design Guide as a practice that breaks the sharp edge in a highway cross section and the side slope. There have been past studies aimed at understanding the influence of slope rounding on vehicle trajectories for various slope conditions. These studies were conducted about twenty years ago and only looked at two vehicle types of that era and a small set of roadside features and vehicle departure conditions in influences the slope rounding. This research effort analyzed two current vehicle types using vehicle dynamics analysis tools. These tools simulate the response of the vehicle to varying surface features for given road departure speeds and angles. The analysis considered various shoulder conditions and rounding treatments for the transition to 4:1 side slopes. The trajectory plots for the 1100C and 2270P vehicles departing the road at speeds of 30, 40, 50, and 60 mph and angles of 15 and 25 degrees were generated using simulation. The results show similarities to the previous research, expand the knowledge about the effects of slope rounding for other conditions and newer vehicles, and suggest that commercially available vehicle dynamics tools can be a means to systematically develop guidance for determining how and where to apply slope rounding.

In this paper, vehicle dynamics analysis is used to study the effect of elevated median cross-sectional configurations on potential barrier interfaces with errant vehicles for a thirty foot wide median. This analysis follows the approach that was used in previous efforts. Two elevated median configurations are considered. This analysis involved consideration of the same five vehicle types and a range of impact conditions. The analyses focused on investigating vehicle to barrier interaction for elevated medians since there had been no known research efforts for such cases. The analyses indicated a tendency for vehicles to climb the 3V:1H face of the elevated section and cross the median at 100 km/h and various angles. Effectiveness plots were generated to allow the evaluation of two barrier cable height options. A cable barrier needed a high top cable to capture the airborne vehicles. There was limited area in the center of the median where a barrier might be effective. Additional analyses to develop guidance across a wider spectrum of elevated median configurations will be addressed in future research.},

Furthermore, the AMST is structured to provide beneficial information and general guidance related to active management strategies in all areas and levels of transportation planning. The tool directly links the transportation planning process with operations by providing regions with information about which operational strategies they might include in the regional transportation plan that have the potential to provide the most benefit to the regional transportation network. The AMST ascertains at the appropriate screening level, major attributes about candidate corridors that help determine if any active management strategy is suitable and appropriate, and in successive steps which strategy and its companion support facility and program needs best respond to the mobility, safety, and environmental needs of the corridor.

This study investigates the value of using 4 TCs by inspectors on transportation construction projects, which are conducted in Pennsylvania. 5 The objective of this study is to monitor performance changes of inspectors after introduction of 6 TCs as a tool to aid in their daily activities. The inspectors' typical jobsite functions were 7 separated into five typical daily tasks and activities: general inspection, system inspection, 8 paperwork, document research and meetings and other tasks. Performance was monitored by the 9 time required to perform each task and activity before and after introduction of the TC. The 10 results indicated that the use of the TCs reduced the amount of time the inspector typically 11 needed for the " document research " task, which includes looking up information to reply to the 12 contractor's queries and determining adherence to specifications. This same time was 13 transferred onto the " general inspection " task, which consists of observing on-going construction 14 activities. Although this time saving does not affect progress of the overall project, it allows the 15 inspector to remain on the jobsite where he/she can perform his/her primary duty. Some 16 weather-related technical limitations of the device were found to affect the productivity of the 17 work.

Various optimization models can help design rail transit alignments satisfying various track geometry constraints, but none of these models can account for the impacts of vehicle dynamics on operational and user costs. This paper presents a practical rail transit alignment optimization method for designing track alignments that accounts for vehicle dynamics. The method can generate alignments that improve the balance between the initial cost and the operation and user costs recurring throughout the system's life cycle. A heuristic based on a genetic algorithm is developed to search for solutions efficiently while interacting with the supporting geographic information system. A hypothetical topography scenario is created to illustrate the impact of vehicle dynamics on the trade-offs among system costs. The Baltimore, Maryland, Red Line is used as a case study to demonstrate that the model can find good solutions in regions with complex topographies.},

abstract = {With the increasing concerns about environmental effects and the sustainability of roadway capacity expansion, transportation agencies are seeking alternative solutions to mitigate congestion. Managed lanes (MLs) promote person throughput on freeways and manage congestion through improving efficiency. The ML concept therefore has been gaining popularity in past decades. However, the lack of guidance on evaluating the performance of the ML facility poses challenges for agencies wanting to design and implement the strategy effectively. Many MLs are designed to be left-lane concurrent; vehicles entering the freeway from general purpose (GP) lane on- ramps need to cross weave over multiple GP lanes to access the ML. These weaving vehicles will have a negative effect on the operating performance of the parallel GP lanes. This paper investigates this cross-weaving effect as a function of different roadway geometric configurations as well as traffic conditions. A microscopic simulation model was built and calibrated on the basis of video data collected along I-635 in Dallas, Texas. Multiple scenarios were tested to explore the effect of the following parameters: number of GP lanes, cross-weave demand, and cross-weaving length. A set of capacity adjustment factors was determined to account for this effect as a function of those parameters. Results showed that the capacity-reducing effect was higher with a reduction in cross-weaving length, an increase in the number of GP lanes, or a rise in cross-weave demand volumes. The results are important in evaluating the operational performance of freeway segments in the presence of concurrent GP lanes and MLs in a Highway Capacity Manual context.},

abstract = {Congestion in highway networks inflicts economic and emotional stress on drivers and a considerable cost to society. To mitigate some of these effects, managed toll lanes are being designed and built in the United States. These managed toll lanes guarantee to drivers that they will be able to travel at free-flow speed during peak hours when the general lanes are congested. The strategy used to price tolls on managed toll lanes has become an important issue; however, few studies have focused on dynamic optimal pricing strategies. This paper formulates the pricing problem on the basis of a stochastic macroscopic traffic flow model and investigates the methodology used to find a pricing strategy to maximize the total expected revenue. A simulation-based numerical algorithm that obtains the optimal prices efficiently in real time is proposed. The methodology is also applicable and readily adjusted for other objective purposes of administrators, such as maximization of total throughput. The general pricing model developed in this paper is not limited to one specific underlying traffic flow model and is readily adapted to other macroscopic traffic models, such as the classical Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model.},

abstract = {Non-motorized travel in terms of walking or bicycling plays a critical role in promoting healthy living style, offering sustainable alternatives to environmental impacts, energy consumption, and societal costs of motorized travel modes, and allocating limited resources for constructing pedestrian-orientated transportation infrastructure facilities. Historically, much research has been focused on the nexus between ambient built-environment attributes and travel mode choices or shares or non-motorized travel prediction. For a better understanding of non-motorized travels at multimodal facilities, spatial dependency should be considered since traffic volume at one monitoring station is correlated with that at neighboring sites due to the continuity in area-wide traffic circulation. However, few studies have been conducted in spatial analysis of walking and bicycling traffic at intersections. Utilizing a 10-year assembly of non-motorized traffic counts and a geographical information system (GIS) which contains intersection-based location data and functional classifications of habitable infrastructure in Chittenden County of Vermont, this study determined whether spatial autocorrelation exists for non-motorized volumes and ambient built-environment attributes, and geographically weighted regression (GWR) was applied on two different data-collection scales to identify whether spatially varying relationships operate significantly between non-motorized volumes and specific surrounding characteristics on each scale. Some variables are found significant in spatially influencing non-automobile travel. The resultant models can estimate walking and bicycling volumes at countywide intersections. Better estimation of non-motorized travel locally facilitates transportation planning, facility design, safety enhancement, and operational analysis.},

This contribution describes a new system that was developed to remove the impact of vibration and movement of the helicopter from the images. This system stabilizes the images without user support (except initial setup). The implemented algorithm searches for the maximum value of the normalized cross correlation of a reference image and the image that is to be stabilized by varying six image transformation parameters. The algorithm is robust, user-friendly and efficient: on late 2007 personal computer hardware (quad core), the software takes about 1 minute of CPU time per 2448 x 2050 color image.

abstract = {New urban planning concepts are being redefined to emphasize walkability and to accommodate the pedestrian as a key road user. However, the availability of reliable pedestrian traffic information remains a major challenge inhibiting a better understanding of many pedestrian issues. Therefore, the importance of developing new techniques for pedestrian data collection cannot be overstated. This paper demonstrates the use of computer vision techniques for the automated collection of pedestrian data. Several applications are described, which include pedestrian counting, tracking, and walking speed measurements. An efficient pedestrian tracking algorithm, the MMTrack, is used. The algorithm employs a large margin learning criterion to effectively combine different sources of information. The applications are demonstrated using a real-world data set from Vancouver, British Columbia. The data set includes 1135 pedestrian tracks. Manual counts and tracking were performed in order to validate the results of the automatic data collection. The results show a 5{\%} average error in counting which are considered reliable. The results of the walking speed validation show an excellent agreement between manual and automated walking speed values (RMSE = 0.0416 m/s, R² = 0.9269). Further analysis was conducted on the mean walking speed of pedestrians with regard to several factors. Gender, age, and the group size were found to significantly influence the pedestrian mean walking speed. The results demonstrate that computer vision techniques have the potential to collect microscopic road user data at a degree of automation and accuracy that cannot be feasibly achieved by manual or semi-automated techniques.},

abstract = {GPS devices, as an emerging mobile traffic data source, offer new opportunities for short-term traffic prediction, especially in arterial networks where traditional fixed-location sensors are sparse or unavailable. In particular, we consider GPS data that is provided in the form of point speeds, rather than trajectories. This is the case when GPS data from consumers is sampled at discrete points by a service provider, e.g. to protect privacy of the consumers by not permitting a reconstruction of their trajectories. In the context studied in this paper as well as others observed in practice, such GPS sampling rates are quite low and link-level speed estimate based on a small sample of instantaneous GPS speed readings can be unreliable. Therefore, traditional time-series traffic prediction methods based on fixed-location data sources are usually inapplicable in this context. This paper presents a hybrid data mining approach for real-time traffic speed prediction based on such GPS data. It was found that reliable speed predictions can be obtained by combining GPS data with an additional, offline data source collecting link speed periodically. The primary contribution of GPS data comes from both the global and local count information within ranges of speed categories. The key elements of our approach include the neighboring distance criterion considering both local and global GPS counts information, the ensemble rule, and the cross-validation framework. The example studied is drawn from the traffic prediction competition of the 2010 IEEE International Conference on Data Mining, in which the authors were part of a team that finished second worldwide.},

abstract = {Our objective is to use information on the vehicles approaching an intersection to control the traffic signal. Recent work in this area has used this information to minimize the average delay of vehicles controlled by the signal. We demonstrate that, when there are significant differences in the volume of traffic approaching from different directions, the average delay of the vehicles in the low volume directions can be much greater than those in the high volume direction. In order to treat the vehicles more fairly, we define two fairness mechanisms, min-max fairness and proportional fairness. Min-max fairness minimizes the maximum delay of vehicles, and is fair from the perspective of the vehicles, and proportional fairness minimizes the sum of the delays of vehicles controlled by a phase of the traffic signal, and is fair from the perspective of the traffic signal. We compare our fairness mechanisms with a real-time mechanism that minimizes the queue length of vehicles waiting at a traffic signal, and a fixed cycle traffic signal. We perform the comparisons for a range of arrival rates, and for both balanced and unbalanced loads on the approaches to the signal. We find that the min-max fairness mechanism treats the individual vehicles more fairly, but can significantly increase the average delay in comparison with the queue length mechanism. Proportional fairness, however, treats the vehicles as fairly as min-max fairness without significantly increasing the average delay. Based upon this study we recommend proportional fairness for the real time control of traffic signals.},

This in turn requires that the technologies and operational procedures that underpin the railway systems facilitate not only interoperability but also enhancement of safety, capacity and efficiency. The European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS) is designed to enable interoperability through the use of one unique signalling system as opposed to conventional signalling systems. However, the introduction of ERTMS must be undertaken to facilitate the European wide ambition to reduce risk on the railways. This paper addresses the issues relevant to the safe introduction of ERTMS into the European railways systems, with a focus on the technical and procedural challenges of moving from conventional signalling to ERTMS. Existing literature, augmented with a targeted survey of subject matter experts, are used for a critical appraisal of safety considerations across Europe. Differences and variations across networks and countries are identified, and used to determine the significant safety issues to be addressed to enable the safe introduction of ERTMS. Finally, generic observations are made on the factors that impact safety as a result of the introduction of new technologies and procedures into existing railway systems.},

Typical travel distance and time and qualified dwell times (i.e., the typical required EV battery recharging time between travels as based on most literature findings) are investigated in this study. The viability of electric cars is discussed from a pragmatic perspective. The results of this research show that 90 percent of single trips are less than 25 miles; approximately 70 percent of the average annual daily travel is less than 60 miles. On average there are 3.62 trips made between four-hour dwell times as aggregated to 60 minutes and 50 miles of travel. Therefore, majority of trips are within the travel range provided by most of the currently available EVs.

Outside of 5 the regional Commercial Business Districts (CBD), the most favored means of access to transit stations is 6 often park and ride. An increasing number of suburban station locations have reached full use of limited 7 parking resources, and parking capacity has begun to limit opportunities to increase rail transit ridership. 8 Thus, these major cost transit investments are not fulfilling their full potential due to access capacity 9 constraints. Station communities also have been increasingly pressuring many transit agencies to convert 10 some station patron parking to Transit Oriented Development (TOD) uses, and some nearby private 11 parking lots have also been lost to TOD.

abstract = {The building of managed lanes parallel to general purpose lanes is an increasingly common approach to optimizing freeway capacity. Managed lanes allow agencies to classify customers and assign a portion of the freeway capacity to them. With no methodology in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) for analyzing these facilities, analysts rely on more time-consuming simulation analyses. A methodology is presented for estimating the performance of a parallel system of general purpose and managed lane facilities in an HCM context based on NCHRP Project 3-96. The methodology defines new managed lane segment types to use in an HCM analytical framework and is associated with a new set of speed-flow curves. It is sensitive to the number of lanes and the type of separation between managed lanes and general purpose lanes. The method introduces the concept of parallel lane groups of general purpose and managed lanes and thus can account for speed reduction in managed lanes caused by congestion in adjacent general purpose lanes. The method was implemented in a computational engine, FREEVAL-ML, which was built on the freeway facilities method in HCM 2010 but which was updated to incorporate inputs and outputs of the managed lane components. The geometry of two existing managed lane facilities in Washington State is used to illustrate the method, demonstrating the applicability of the analytical framework to real-world facilities.},

abstract = {2 Railway designers and operators have the hard task of identifying effective solutions to achieve the 3 established network performance levels trying to optimize as more as possible the allocation of economic 4 and technical resources available. To this aim, a preliminary sensitivity analysis is strongly recommended to 5 understand which design parameters are really worth focusing on, to improve a certain measure of 6 performance, without wasting efforts for intervening on non relevant parameters. 7 In this paper in fact, a variance-based sensitivity analysis framework is introduced for supporting 8 decisional processes of railway system design. In particular such framework uses an " own-built " parallel 9 microscopic simulation model to estimate network performances for all possible value combinations of the 10 design parameters involved in the analysis. 11 A practical application has been then carried out on a real mass transit system to understand how four 12 different performance measures were influenced by four design parameters. Results show that the proposed 13 framework is able to identify for a certain performance the variables which mostly affect it, addressing 14 therefore the users towards the choice of intervention solutions which can lead to more efficient performance 15 improvements. 16 17 Keywords: Railway system design, Sensitivity Analysis, Microscopic simulation of railway systems 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Due to insufficient sample amount, these models may become less 46 effective for GPS points with low-sampling-rate. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to fill this gap 47 by developing effective speed estimation models for low-sampling-rate GPS data. The distribution 48 features of floating car data (FCD) on the target segment are analyzed, and thereby corresponding 49 segment speed estimation models based on these features are established. The distribution features 50 of FCD on the target segment can generally be divided into three situations. Thus, this study puts 51 forward a self-adaptive algorithm based on three speed estimation models including speed-time 52 integral model, vehicle tracking model and speed-distance integral model to estimate the segment 53 speed. A simulation experiment is conducted with the use of real OD data collected from Guangshen 54 (GS) freeway in China, and the error range of the self-adaptive algorithm in different sample sizes of 55 FCD is analyzed. 56 57},

In previous 4 work on this topic, three model structures with increasing information in explanatory variables were 5 developed and tested for 15-minute ahead traffic flow prediction during normal and abnormal traffic 6 conditions using Inductive Loop Detector (ILDs) data from central London. In this paper, k-Nearest 7 Neighbour (kNN) and Support Vector Regression (SVR) were used as machine learning tools for 8 implementing the above model structures with the objective of comparing the accuracy of these 9 machines tools under aforementioned model structures. The prediction accuracy of models 10 implemented using the kNN and SVR methods was evaluated during normal traffic conditions and 11 during incidents conditions using data from central London. This study shows that the kNN and SVR 12 methods have the similar prediction accuracy under normal, non-incident traffic conditions. However, 13 the kNN method outperforms SVR during incidents. In addition, the model structure with error 14 feedback resulted in higher prediction accuracy during incidents, using both kNN and SVR tools 15 supporting the results from earlier studies. 16 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Examples of vehicle-class specific measures are truck lanes and high-occupancy/toll (HOT) lanes. We propose that the distinction of different vehicle classes, with different flow characteristics and societal and economic function, can contribute to the effectiveness of traffic management measures. In this paper, we develop a multi-class controller that reroutes the traffic class-specifically dependent on the vehicle class. The vehicle-class specific properties such as vehicle length and value of time are used in a model-predictive control approach to optimize the total time spent and the economic costs. Experiments in a simple network with synthetic data show that a multi-class controller outperforms a single-class controller. We further show that the value of time and the incident strength have an influence on which vehicle class is rerouted by the multi-class controller.

It then reports the findings 43 of the research, which suggests that the expansion phase of city adoption of public bike hire 44 schemes may be past its peak. The research also identifies useful relationships between city 45 size and bike hire scheme size and explores the extent to which existing schemes have 46 expanded or plan to expand. There appears to be evidence of regional differences in adoption 47 which may be explained by the private sector providers that manage and co-develop many of 48 these schemes.

abstract = {Driven by concerns related to climate change and the depletion of fossil fuels, there is a renewed interest in electric cars. Because electric cars are more expensive than fossil fuel cars, have a limited range and battery charging facilities are still limited, the question is to what extent they will penetrate the market. This paper reports on a state choice experiment conducted in the Netherlands to examine the car drivers' trade off among purchase price, range, fuel cost reduction and the availability of slow and fast battery charging facilities. The results indicate that especially purchase price, range and the availability of fast charging facilities influence electric car purchase. The results further indicate that market shares for the typical electric cars now available on the market probably will remain low and the target of 200,000 electric cars in the Netherlands in 2020 will likely not be met without policy measures. The analysis suggests that providing a purchase subsidy of 5000 euro and realizing fast battery facilities at all fuel stations both can stimulate electric car purchase to about the same extent. However, providing fast charging facilities is a cheaper option and therefore may be considered the more cost-effective policy measure.},

From the one hand the prediction of future traffic 51 volumes based on systematically collected road data and from the other hand the minimization of 52 the required data that should be entered in the time series models in order to achieve this 53 prediction. 54 The present work is introducing another step in the process of the traffic volume forecast 55 for intersection connected arterial streets, taking into account the conclusions of the up to today 56 research on the time series model analysis. Taking as given the cross-correlation between the 57 volumes of two separate segments of the road network, a research of this cross-correlation via 58 cluster analysis took place and afterwards the forecast of traffic volumes was realized. The 59 cluster analysis was based on the differences between the statistical distances of the traffic 60 volumes profile of each cluster member. The forecast was realized by creating a single and multi 61 variable time series model.

ABSTRACT Semi-compensatory models represent a choice process consisting of an elimination-based choice set formation upon satisfying criteria thresholds and a utility-based choice. Current semi-compensatory models assume a purely non-compensatory choice set formation and hence do not support multinomial criteria that involve trade-offs among attributes at the choice set formation stage. This study proposes a novel behavioral paradigm comprising a hybrid compensatory non-compensatory choice set formation process, followed by compensatory choice. The behavioral paradigm is represented by a mathematical model that combines multinomial-response and ordered-response thresholds with a utility-based choice. The proposed model is applied to a stated preference experiment of off-campus rental apartment choices by students. Results demonstrate the applicability and feasibility of incorporating multinomial-response thresholds into semi-compensatory models. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Recently, local collection-and-delivery 4 point (CDP) concept where customers can collect their failed deliveries have emerged 5 as a solution for those home delivery failures. 6 The study uses 2007 data from customer survey across two geographical areas 7 and historical delivery data provided by a major carrier company in the UK. In 8 addition, nine carrier companies were interviewed to understand the current operating 9 characteristics of carriers and the key problems encountered during delivery 10 operations. This paper quantifies the transport costs on the carrier and customer trips 11 of conventional delivery method where carrier makes repeat deliveries in the case of 12 first-time failure and appraises the benefits of using CDP networks for handling those 13 failures. In the modelling work, a number of key factors of a home delivery model are 14 identified, including the delivery failure rate, the carrier depot distance from the 15 delivery area, and the density of available CDPs. 16 The results suggested that a network of CDPs would function most effectively 17 (in terms of reducing the transport costs for home delivery operations) when: 1) 18 proportion of first-time home delivery failures is significant; 2) significant number of 19 people walk to their local CDP; 3) the carrier's depot is located far away from the 20 collection area and not in a convenient location to allow the trip to be combined with 21 another trip; 4) dense network of CDP around the residential area.},

abstract = {The European Union (EU) transport policy has considered since the early 1990s modal change from road to rail as a cornerstone of its strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Although modal change is also relevant in urban and freight transport, this paper reviews a number of recent backcasting studies from the perspective of interurban passenger mobility, as the bulk of current transport infrastructure investment in the EU is focusing on the high speed rail network. The approach combines a general overview at the EU as a whole, and a more detailed study of Spain, justified by the fact that this country is making a particularly relevant effort in developing its high-speed rail network. The review of these backcasting exercises conducted in three steps. In the first step, some key existing trends are identified (the apparent stabilization of personal mobility demand by road; ageing of the EU population and changing interurban travel patterns), and the 2030 GHG emissions objectives are set. In the second step, the 2030 scenarios proposed by these studies are reviewed in detail, and their implications for the rail system in 2030 are analyzed. Finally, in the third step, different rail planning strategies are assessed, in terms of their ability to reach the 2030 scenarios and their feasibility for implementation. The review made suggests than, on its own, rail is unlikely to have a relevant impact on GHG emissions, as it would successfully compete, at most, with domestic air transport services, which currently represent only a small share of total interurban passenger transport emissions, and have good prospects to increase its efficiency in the future due to technological innovations and to their flexibility to adjust to demand needs. In order to increase its impact, rail should provide a more flexible array of services, in terms of tariffs, quality, origins and destinations so that it could become a more attractive alternative to private road transport. This would require also higher prices for road transport (which is likely to occur, as oil prices move upwards and technological innovations may result in higher purchase costs for road vehicles) and, most critically, the consolidation of multimodal transport systems, combining rail and road (coaches and innovative car services such as car sharing or on demand transport services) and offering convenient door-to-door seamless transport services. This context would require some rethinking of the current rail planning approaches, so that intermodal needs and potential could be fully integrated at an early design stage.},

abstract = {Detailed GPS data for a year's worth of travel by 255 households from the Seattle area were used to investigate how plug-in electric vehicle types may affect adoption rates and use levels. The results suggest that a battery-electric vehicle (BEV) with 100 miles of range should meet the needs of 50{\%} of one-vehicle households and 80{\%} of multiple-vehicle households, if those households fully charge their BEVs just once a day and are willing to use a different vehicle or mode of transport just 4 days a year or less (to serve daily travel distances above 100 miles). Moreover, the average one-vehicle household in the Seattle region relies on its vehicle for 23 miles per day and should be able to electrify close to 80{\%} of its miles using a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) with 40-mile all-electric-range. Households owning two or more vehicles can electrify 50 to 70{\%} of their household miles using a PHEV40, depending on how they assign the vehicle across their drivers each day. Cost comparisons between the average single-vehicle household owning a Chevrolet Cruze (regular gasoline vehicle) versus a Chevrolet Volt PHEV suggest that when gas prices are {\$}3.50 per gallon and electricity rates at the U.S. average of 11.2 ct per kWh, the Volt will save the household {\$}535 per year in operating costs. Similarly, the Toyota Prius PHEV, when compared to the Toyota Corolla, will provide an annual savings of {\$}538 per year.},

abstract = {1 2 During the 2011 construction season, the Virginia Department of Transportation completed an 3 in-place pavement recycling project to rehabilitate a section of pavement on Interstate 81 4 southbound near Staunton, Virginia. During the project, the right lane of two lanes of traffic was 5 forced to detour onto a parallel highway via an aggressive traffic control scheme. Electronic 6 message signs were used to direct trucks into the left lane and remain on the Interstate, and 7 signage for the right lane was deliberately sparse to increase the number of vehicles detoured. 8 During peak volume periods, cars were specifically instructed to use the right lane. Field results 9 showed that during construction, approximately 45{\%} of cars on average exited the freeway, 10 whereas nearly 90{\%} of trucks remained on I-81 through the work zone. This project compares 11 the results of this unique traffic control strategy with simulated results from traditional work 12 zone strategies: a lane closure with no suggested detour, a lane closure with a suggested detour, 13 and a closure of both lanes with a full detour. Simulation results suggest that the forced detour 14 strategy reduced travel times and queue lengths in comparison to the more traditional strategies. 15 This forced detour strategy could potentially be extended to similar locations along rural 16 Interstate corridors. 17 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This paper describes an automated classification approach to road users. The main motivation behind road-user classification in the context of safety stems from the necessity to learn traffic scenarios and understand patterns within each road-user class. The end goal in the analysis is to identify and learn scenarios that may contribute to hazards in traffic conditions. The classification relies on video data (move- ment trajectories) collected in urban intersections. The approach is based on the discrimination of the shapes of the speed profiles of each road-user type, more precisely, the discrimination between the speed movement patterns of vehicles and the ambulatory characteristics of pedestrians. The collected movement-trajectory data are represented as time series. The classification is performed using singular value decomposition and reconstruction of the time series. Two complementary methods are proposed based on the quality evaluation (correlation score) of the reconstructed trajectories. In the first method, a threshold-based decision procedure is applied. This approach is complemented in the second method by a semisupervised classification procedure guided by movement prototypes. The approach is validated on real-world data collected in Oakland, California. A correct classification of around 90{\%} was achieved using both methods.},

abstract = {1 2 The State of Maryland owns and operates over 80 highway Dynamic Message Signs (DMS). 3 When real-time travel time messages began appearing in January, 2010, users and media outlets 4 renewed historical complaints that DMSs cause localized traffic impacts due to vehicles slowing 5 down to read the messages. In order to investigate these claims, highway speed data from 6 permanently mounted Remote Traffic Monitoring Sensors (RTMS) in close proximity to DMSs 7 was collected along with message logs for analysis. Two methods were used: consecutive 5-8 minute average and aggregate 2-week analysis. In the former, speeds in consecutive 5-minute 9 periods in which the DMS condition changed from off to on, on to off, or switched from one 10 message to another were compared using paired t-tests. The 2-week analysis consisted of 11 averaging traffic speeds over 2-week periods during different DMS operational conditions and 12 message types. The findings from 2,268 cases in the first analysis indicated that in the majority 13 of cases, traffic is not negatively affected by appearance, removal, or change of DMS messages. 14 When negative effects were observed, danger or warning messages had the most influence. The 15 2-week analysis also showed that danger and warning messages had the largest impact on traffic 16 speeds over longer periods. The message type that included travel time messages, Type 2, 17 showed lower impacts on traffic speeds and in most cases speeds were at or above the posted 18 speed limit. Overall, the claims that Dynamic Message Signs cause congestion and speed 19 reductions seem to be unsupported in the majority of cases (253 words).},

Consequently, landside freight access to airports is becoming increasingly important too, as its adequacy and efficiency impacts freight operations and thus the economic viability of individual airports. Past research has focused on airport access for passengers rather than freight. This paper summarizes the methodology and findings of a larger study whose objectives were to conduct a comprehensive, up-to-date, and detailed assessment of current and future highway access issues and infrastructure needs at all significant Texas airports, and to identify best practices and other potential mitigation solutions. The researchers developed a customized methodology to structure preliminary case study evaluations which categorized airports into large metro (inner city/surface street access and urban fringe/direct freeway access), dedicated freight, small metro, and general aviation. Further, the researchers developed a framework consisting of 4 " areas of influence " in the vicinity of an airport in order to differentiate the locations and types of roads used to access it. Selected case studies incorporated interviews at 10 airports (9 in Texas and 1 in Oklahoma) with public and private sector stakeholders who provided valuable insight to field conditions, issues, procedures, and practices. The research produced a guidebook incorporating the best practices and additional recommendations for potential solutions related to planning and roadway issues which airport authorities, and local, regional, and state transportation agencies throughout the nation can utilize in order to improve landside freight access to airports.},

The methodology and results of this research expanded significantly on an earlier smaller pilot effort. Both were originally intended to be based on data collected via surveys and interviews regarding waterborne and alternative land routings and rates and this study was to also include lock closure response surveys. Again however, the researchers encountered stiff resistance from terminal operators when requesting cost information and discovered substantial inaccuracies in the dock contact and ownership information contained in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Waterborne Commerce Statistics Center's (WCSC) trip data and Port Series Reports. Therefore it was necessary to use the Barge Costing Model (BCM), external data, supplementary sources, information from rail and motor carriers, and professional experience. This study also found that no off-river origins or destinations were associated with any movement. In 149 movements rail was the least-cost, most practical, land-only line haul alternative to barge. Overall, barge was found to be by far the least-cost per net ton-mile alternative for all WCSC commodity groups resulting in annual savings of {\$}1.56B. This study confirmed that it is vital to include barge operators in future data collection efforts in order to " ground truth " the BCM and the researchers' assumptions.},

Bryce, Katicha, Flintsch, and Ferne 2 ABSTRACT 1 This paper evaluates the repeatability of continuous deflection measuring devices (Continuous 2 Deflectometers) in terms of the mean square error of deflection measurements, which is 3 decomposed into variance and bias. A specific methodology for analyzing repeatability is 4 presented, and then applied to measurements obtained from the Traffic Speed Deflectometer 5 (TSD). The TSD is a continuous deflectometer that is being researched under the Second 6 Strategic Highway Research Program project R06 (F). The decomposition of the mean square 7 error into variance and bias allows for a better understanding of the sources of measurements 8 error. For example, bias can be caused by changes in testing condition such as pavement 9 temperature. The method of decomposing the error into bias and variance is compared against 10 the traditional method of determining standard deviations in order to show the importance of the 11 decomposition when analyzing the measured response from the TSD. Removal of the bias will 12 decrease the repeatability standard deviations of the measurements and provide tighter 13 confidence intervals, a practical application of which may result in more accurate project 14 selection when analyzing network level data. 15 16 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In the context of modeling route choice behavior, modelers generate objective choice sets by selecting a path generation technique and its parameters according to personal judgments. The current paper proposes an experimental setting and a methodological approach to provide indications about objective judgments for effective route choice set generation. Initially, path generation techniques are implemented within a synthetic network to generate possible subjective choice sets considered by travelers. Next, " true model estimates " and " postulated predicted routes " are assumed from the simulation of a route choice model. Then, objective choice sets are applied for model estimation and results are compared to the " true model estimates " . Last, predictions from the simulation of models estimated with objective choice sets are compared to the " postulated predicted routes " . Meta-analysis allows synthesizing the effect of judgments on the implementation of path generation techniques, since a large number of models generate a large amount of results that are otherwise difficult to summarize and to process. Meta-analysis estimates suggest that modelers should apply stochastic approaches with the possibility of correcting for unequal sampling probability while maintaining a fairly reasonable level of variance. Estimation of models would greatly improve and the issue of the coverage of observed behavior would not be raised because the correction would cover for adding alternatives not generated.},

abstract = {Most widely available data from rural demand response transportation systems are annual. Often, these annual statistics are reduced to smaller timeframes, such as passengers per month. However, annual data easily hides extreme fluctuations in service. Annual data may indicate that a system averages 1,000 passengers per month. Whereas, the system may never carry 1,000 passengers per month, but instead, fluctuate from 600 to 1,400. Advisory boards, financial managers, service planners, operators, and researchers require more detailed information to make informed decisions. In lieu of requiring data to be collected and reported more frequently, this research develops a monthly service profile for rural demand response transportation. The resulting profile, similar to traffic profiles, can be used to disaggregate annual data to a monthly level. The monthly service levels can then be applied to annual data to predict the actual variability in rural demand response transportation. These predictions allow for better allocation of financial resources over the year by predicting periods of peak demand. These predictions are also useful for determining the need for technology, vehicles, drivers, and other resources. The profiles may even assist with scheduling events likely to have large impacts on operations, such as the implementation of technology. The profile can also be used to annualize verifiable daily/weekly/monthly/seasonal sample data.},

Programs such as TIGER, RRIF, and TIFIA have been a successful way to leverage private dollars, but other programs are still needed to fund the surface transportation infrastructure gap. The Department of Transportation estimates that over the next six years, it will cost {\$}550 billion to repair and maintain the Federal-aid highway network, yet the Highway Trust Fund will only accrue {\$}230 billion. The DOT has been exploring new programs dealing with innovative financing to help develop this much-needed new road supply; one of these ideas is " public-private partnerships " . These are arrangements which allow a private firm to participate in the financing of an infrastructure project and to take either part or all of the business risks, earning as compensation a market return on its investment. It is also important to note that surface transportation is struggling to provide both an efficient supply of roads and congestion management. Public-private partnerships (P3s) are able to combat may be able to address both of those issues. Though P3s can be used to finance almost any type of infrastructure investment, this paper will focus on investments in transportation infrastructure Over the last 20 years, there have been a number of significant P3s in the United States. While discussion of P3s often centers on road projects, projects undertaken in the last two decades have also included not only toll highways, but rail transit lines and stations, parking garages and meters, and investments in freight railroad infrastructure.},

Then the journey time 9 distribution of any path could be established, upon which methods were proposed to infer route 10 choice proportions. 11 After data preparations, methods were applied to two typical ODs from the Beijing Metro. 12 Key values about travel time reliability, such as PET, PET-Trans, left behinds, and path 13 coefficients, were obtained and interpreted in detail. 14 The outcome of this research could facilitate transit service reliability analysis and 15 passenger flow assignment in daily operation. 16 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Accurately estimating Origin-Destination (OD) trip tables based on traffic data has become cru-cial in many real-time traffic applications. The problem of OD estimation is traditionally modeled as a bilevel network design problem (NDP), which is challenging to solve in large-scale networks. In this paper, we propose a new one-level convex optimization formulation to reasonably approxi-mate the bilevel structure, thus allowing the development of more efficient solution algorithms. This one-level approach is consistent with user equilibrium conditions, and improves previous one-level relaxed OD estimation formulations in the literature by 'equilibrating' path flows using external path cost parameters. Our new formulation can, in fact, be viewed as a special case of the user equilibrium assignment problem with elastic demand, and hence can be solved efficiently by standard path-based traffic assignment algorithms with an iterative parameter updating scheme. Numerical experiments indicate that this new one-level approach performs very well. Estimation results are robust to net-work topology, sensor coverage, and observation error, and can achieve further improvements when additional data sources are included.},

This study utilizes loop detector data and incident records on I-66 in northern Virginia 7 to empirically investigate the existence of incident-induced diversion behavior and statistically analyze 8 connections to incident properties, traffic conditions, and trip characteristics. This research diverges from 9 previous studies in two aspects. The first distinction lies in identifying the occurrence of diversion based 10 on aggregate field data. We use a dynamic programming based procedure to identify diversions by 11 isolating transient level shifts. Secondly, the study associates incident-induced diversion with measurable 12 incident and traffic characteristics through a binary logit model. The evidence highlights the effect of 13 incident duration. Specifically, the probability of triggering a diversion increases when an incident lasts 14 longer. In addition, the magnitude of traffic flow disruption plays an important role in triggering diversion. 15 The probability of observing an incident-induced diversion has a statistically significant relationship both 16 to the number of blocked general-purpose lanes (positive) and the speed at the incident location (negative). 17 Echoing the findings of previous studies, the effect of trip purpose upon diversion is also supported. 18 Incidents occurring during periods dominated by non-work (weekday off-peak) and non-peak travel 19 (weekends) appear to have a much higher probability of triggering a diversion than otherwise identical 20 incidents occurring during peak work travel periods. 21 22 23},

abstract = {It has been estimated that 25{\%} of collisions on UK roads and 30{\%} of US occupational fatalities involve someone driving for work. Across the EU the figure is worse with 34{\%} of work fatalities involving road traffic or transport accidents. These collisions are not confined to large trucks but also include many smaller vehicles where driving is secondary to the employees " main task. In general employees driving for work have an increased risk of involvement in a fatal or serious road traffic accident. Increasingly fleet management has focused on safety and the behaviour of drivers rather than asset management and cost control. Studies have shown that changing the behaviour of both drivers and the rest of the organisation can make a large improvement in safety. This paper reports on a study of insurance claims made by employees driving for a large UK company. The company uses a fleet of approximately 40,000 vehicles and has made significant progress in applying a range of strategies to driver safety. As part of the research, claims were clustered using latent class analysis based on crash and driver characteristics. A multinomial logit model was then used to predict crash severity within each class thus identifying previously obscured driver risk dependencies. It is concluded that specific interventions could be aimed at the risks faced by these drivers and that this approach may aid the company in continuing to improve its safety record.},

This paper adds to that literature in one important way--it explicitly recognises the endogeneity issues raised by typical attribute non-attendance treatments and conditions attribute parameters on underlying unobserved attribute importance ratings. We develop a hybrid model system involving attribute processing and outcome choice models in which latent variables are introduced as explanatory variables in both parts of the model, explaining the answers to attribute processing questions and explaining heterogeneity in marginal sensitivities in the choice model. The resulting empirical model explains how lower latent attribute importance leads to a higher probability of indicating that an attribute was ignored or that it was ranked as less important, as well as increasing the probability of a reduced value for the associated marginal utility coefficient in the choice model. The model does so by treating the answers to information processing questions as dependent rather than explanatory variables, hence avoiding potential risk of endogeneity bias and measurement error.},

abstract = {5.975 words 9 figures and tables (2,,250 word equivalents) 8,225 word equivalents against a 7,500 word limit Abstract Federal regulators and passenger railways are both concerned about passengers with mobility impairments that limit their ability to use stairways. Toward that end, federal policy and railway practice strongly encourages developing services that allow for level boarding and alighting from commuter rail trains without using stairways. Beyond benefiting individuals that have trouble using stairs, level boarding can also lead to significant improvements in service delivery for the rest of the public by reducing unproductive station dwell times, improving safety and creating opportunities to improve crew efficiency. One principal obstacle to level boarding has been concerns presented by the freight railroads that operate over (and often own) trackage shared with the passenger trains. The freight operators wish to maintain a full horizontal clearance envelope allowing unrestricted operations. These concerns often limit the close door/platform interface necessary for level boarding. This paper summarizes current Federal Transit Administration (FTA) policy on level boarding, discusses the benefits of level boarding, reviews the tension between freight clearance concerns and level boarding and reviews the state of the practice in serving passengers with mobility impairments. Based on the industry review, it highlights three innovations that have been implemented or considered to expand the scope of level boarding among North American commuter railroads. Finally it provides recommendations for further research. Introduction Under the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations, new commuter rail stations should feature platforms running the full length of the passenger boarding area of the station that permit level boarding to all cars stopping at the station. From an equity perspective, level boarding for all cars of a train is important because if passengers with disabilities are unable to enter all cars from the platform, the passengers will have access only to segregated service, inconsistent with the nondiscrimination mandate of the ADA. Level boarding can also lead to significant improvements in service delivery for all customers by reducing unproductive station dwell times, improving safety, increasing line capacity and creating opportunities for efficiency by reducing crewing requirements.},

This study looks at the current state of practice of microsurfacing in Texas and compares it to best practices extracted from existing literature. A survey of DOT personnel, contractors and emulsion suppliers in Texas provides insight into the most crucial factors contributing to the success or failure of microsurfacing. From the results of the survey, literature reviews, case studies and site visits, the research team analyzed material selection and mix design methods, construction practices, equipment practices and performance measures for microsurfacings. It was concluded that project selection is the most important contributor to a successful microsurfacing, and falls under DOT control. However, reliance on contractors for input into proper project selection places the agency in a vulnerable position. A certification course to educate personnel is recommended.},

abstract = {This report summarizes the results of year four of a national random-digit-dial public opinion poll asking 1,501 respondents if they would support various tax options for raising federal transportation revenues, with a special focus on understanding support for increasing revenues for public transit. Eleven specific tax options tested were variations on raising the federal gas tax rate, creating a new mileage tax, and creating a new federal sales tax. Other questions probed various perceptions related to public transit, including knowledge and opinions about federal taxes to support transit. In addition, the survey collected data on standard sociodemographic factors, travel behavior (public transit usage, annual miles driven, and vehicle fuel efficiency), and attitudinal data about how respondents view the quality of their local transportation system and their priorities for government spending on transportation in their state. All of this information is used to assess support levels for the tax options among different population subgroups. The survey results show that a majority of Americans would support higher taxes for transportation—under certain conditions. For example, a gas tax increase of 10¢ per gallon to improve road maintenance was supported by 67 percent of respondents, whereas support levels dropped to just 23 percent if the revenues were to be used more generally to maintain and improve the transportation system. For tax options where the revenues were to be spent for undefined transportation purposes, support levels varied considerably by what kind of tax would be imposed, with a sales tax much more popular than either a gas tax increase or a new mileage tax. With respect to public transit, the survey results show that most people want good public transit service in their state. In addition, two-thirds of respondents support spending gas tax revenues on transit. However, questions exploring different methods to raise new revenues found relatively low levels of support for raising gas tax or transit fare rates. Also, not all respondents were well informed about how transit is funded, with only about half knowing that fares do not cover the full cost of transit.},

abstract = {The multistate travel time reliability model has demonstrated superior performance, a close relationship with underlying traffic conditions, and ease of interpretation for travel time reliability reporting. This study advances the multistate model by using skewed component distributions—for example, the gamma and lognormal distributions—to accommodate nonsymmetrically distributed travel times, which are commonly observed in congested states. Six alternative models, the single-state normal, gamma, and lognormal distributions and their multistate versions, were fitted to field-collected data. The performance of the models was compared with Akaike's information criterion. The results indicate that the multistate lognormal model consistently outperforms alternative models, especially during peak hours. The improved fitting of the lognormal model is mainly reflected in the mode and tail portion of the data distribution. During off-peak hours, the single-state model could provide a compatible but parsimonious alternative to multistate models. The impact of using the multistate lognormal model is demonstrated on travel time reliability reporting by using the travel time buffer index. The study concludes that the multistate lognormal model is the optimal alternative model for modeling travel time under moderate to heavy traffic conditions along freeways.},

Data from the LIHTC database is examined in 3 order to identify the percentage of LIHTC projects constructed in neighborhoods served by rail transit, 4 and to draw conclusions about the four different approaches (" No Incentives, " " Preference, " " Points, " and 5 " 30{\%} Basis Boost ") to allocating tax credits near rail transit. U.S. Census data from 1990 and 2009 is 6 also examined for four cases, one from each approach, in order to understand whether trends related to 7 socio-demographics, economics, and travel behavior may be tied to the different allocation approaches. 8 Results from these analyses indicate that more aggressive approaches to the allocation of LIHTCs in 9 proximity to rail transit may help to bolster the provision of affordable housing in those areas. 10 11 INTRODUCTION 12 Fixed-rail transit often figures into policymaker's plans to catalyze redevelopment (1). Rhetoric 13 touts fixed-rail transit as a tool to attract private investment, increase economic development activity, 14 raise property values and taxes, enhance community vitality, and improve residents' quality of life by 15 supporting compact, walkable, and higher-density development (2). While there is much agreement that 16 transit can in fact improve quality of life for residents, there is also growing acknowledgement that transit 17 investments may lead to inequitable patterns of development. Talen and Ellis (3) acknowledge that 18 competition for access to urban amenities is leading to an increase in development pressure in existing 19 urban neighborhoods, especially those well-served by transit, ultimately pushing middle and lower-20 income groups further out of the central city. The authors argue that these trends are not only likely to 21 exacerbate " further displacement and isolation of low-income populations, " but may also give rise to " an 22 urban pattern defined by spatial segregation of various kinds " (p.156). 23 Researchers and advocacy groups are drawing increased attention to concerns about the 24 amplification of socio-economic changes induced by new fixed-rail transit investments, resulting in 25 patterns of gentrification, as well as the need for affordable housing policies to mitigate those effects. 26 Although the definition of gentrification is the subject of much theoretical posturing (4), it typically 27 describes neighborhood changes that occur as middle-and upper-income populations move into 28 previously lower-income neighborhoods (5). Gentrification encompasses both economic changes through 29 increases in property values and household income, as well as demographic changes (6,7). Recent studies 30 evaluating gentrification in the context of transit investments express concern around two issues: social 31 equity and transportation efficacy. From an equity standpoint, gentrification in neighborhoods with 32 transit service are likely to most harshly effect low-income and minority populations living in those 33 neighborhoods as property becomes more expensive, pushing residents to relocate in areas that may 34 require more reliance on auto travel, and thus, more household expenditures on transportation (6,7). 35 From a transportation efficacy perspective, research indicates that higher-income residents may be more 36 likely to own vehicles and less likely to use transit, leading to lower transit ridership (8). 37 There are many policies that aim to mitigate the effects of gentrification in neighborhoods with 38 transit access through the provision of affordable housing. This research explores the effectiveness of one 39 such policy, the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. Findings from this analysis indicate 40 that more aggressive approaches to the allocation of LIHTCs in proximity to transit may help to bolster 41 the creation of affordable housing in areas with rail transit access. While this study provides a necessary 42 first step towards understanding the effectiveness of LIHTCs in proximity to rail transit and suggests that 43 the LIHTC program holds promise towards the provision of affordable housing in areas with access to 44 rail, further research is required to identify more conclusive results. 45 46 LITERATURE REVIEW 47 48 Neighborhood Change in the Context of Transit 49 Transit agencies widely recognize that the success of transit heavily relies on the people who 50 benefit and depend on it the most.

A set of new empirical measures are defined to extract steady-state traffic properties and oscillation characteristics from vehicle trajectory data. A frequency-domain calibration approach based on DFA is developed to construct a proper nonlinear car-following model that fits these empirical measurements. The analytical DFA predictions of oscillation propagation patterns of the calibrated car-following law are then compared with (i) the observed oscillation properties, and (ii) the simulated oscillation characteristics from the same car-following law. Empirical experiments with real-world trajectory data show that the prediction, the simulation, and the field observation typically match very nicely. This not only validates the analytical prediction approach in the previous study, but also shows that the framework proposed in this paper is capable of calibrating a realistic nonlinear car-following law that reproduces the observed oscillation propagation phenomenon. Our proposed modeling method also brings theoretical analyses and empirical observations into one integrated framework that potentially lays the foundation to understand how nonlinearities in a car-following law affect traffic oscillation evolution, and develop possible counteracting strategies. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Wordcount: 5,606 words, 4 tables = 6,606 words 5 Abstract 6 There is growing interest in the notion that when responding to the hypothet-7 ical scenarios faced in a stated choice survey, a respondent may make his/her 8 choices on the basis of only a subset of the presented attributes. Research on 9 how to adequately capture such behaviour in data, and how to accommodate it 10 in our models, has made substantial headway in recent years. Two main schools 11 of thought exist for the reasons of such attribute non-attendance. Some see it 12 as evidence of respondent burden, while others will point to the notion that re-13 spondents decide first which attributes are relevant, before making their choices 14 based on that subset of attributes. Either way, the impact of any unimportant 15 attributes on the estimates of other valuations is unclear, where the focus in the 16 literature has been on the sample level estimates only of the attribute in ques-17 tion. This paper presents evidence from a two stage survey where the second stage 18 eliminates attributes deemed unimportant by a respondent in the first stage. Our 19 analysis shows no evidence of systematic differences between the results of the 20 two games, suggesting that the impact of such attributes on other valuations is 21 minimal at best. This further leads to the conclusion that analysts should not 22 be overly concerned about respondent burden, but should rather include all at-23 tributes that may be relevant, and allow the respondent to filter out those that 24 play no role.

Taking Nanjing one of the most developed large cities 55 in China as an example, the analysis reveals that the job accessibility increases diminishingly 56 with the increase of trip distance, and that the expansion of city size and the increase of trip 57 distance do not necessarily bring any improvement to job accessibility. Then, the urban area 58 is divided into two parts, the old city and the new city. The extent of regional differences of 59 job accessibility is analyzed comparatively, and the reasons for these differences are found 60 out. The results show that the primary reason for the lower job accessibility in the new city is 61 the lack of supporting employment opportunities and cross-regional traffic channels. Finally, 62 based on the experience learned from other cities in the United States, measures for 63 improving the job accessibility are proposed to guide the decision-making in land use 64 planning and traffic facility construction for large cities in China.},

For the most part, these new models, such as the 4 currently popular activity-based modeling framework, are seamlessly " backwards 5 compatible " with all the previous questions that planners still ask from time-to-time. 6 However, a seemingly simple question was recently raised in San Francisco, and the San 7 Francisco County Transportation Authority's supposedly fancy SF-CHAMP activity-based 8 model was not equiped to handle it gracefully. This paper documents a methodology to create 9 an auto vehicle trip rate schedule from the SF-CHAMP activity-based travel demand model. 10 The linear regression methodology uses outputs from the SF-CHAMP model along with 11 simple accessibility variables in order to account for wide variations in vehicle trip rates 12 across the city and to provide a nexus between trip generation rates and the context of their 13 origins or destinations. This approach combines the desired simplicity of auto trip generation 14 rates with local San Francisco context and sensitivity to a human-comprehensible set of 15 accessibility variables. 16 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

In concert with this objective, researchers at the University of Arkansas and Rutgers University are developing a prototype decision support system that integrates geographic information systems and freight movement models to provide a framework for cargo prioritization and off-loading during a sudden catastrophic closure of the national inland waterway. The project seeks to develop (a) a fundamental understanding of the resiliency of inland waterway transportation systems and the interdependence within and between transportation system components and (b) a decision system that will allow public and private parties to respond quickly to catastrophic waterway events. Researchers reviewed public data, published literature, and aerial imagery to ascertain terminal characteristics indicative of a potential for transferring barge cargo from the inland waterway to freight rail systems. A preliminary framework for assessing terminal suitability for intermodal transfer during a sudden catastrophic closure was developed. Findings suggest that the geographic dispersion of terminals and their commodity-specific nature often limit off-loading operations at certain terminals to their designated commercial purpose only. Other configurations could allow for the off-loading of additional commodities at these terminals. Consideration of alternative terminal uses during a sudden catastrophic closure requires a detailed understanding of terminal capabilities beyond historical commercial use. An investigation of alternative capabilities should be undertaken at each link in the interdependent inland marine and surface transportation systems to develop an effective decision-making framework.},

abstract = {Decisions to run traffic on freeway shoulders during peak periods are motivated by the need to relieve congestion. Practicing traffic engineers generally believe that the decreased congestion resulting from running traffic on hard shoulders (i.e., hard shoulder running) is associated with some unspecified degree of improved safety, yet the majority of researchers agree that accident rates increase as the number of lanes increase, even if full shoulders are provided. Despite many years of modern road building, these conflicting views have not been reconciled. This paper first examines the relationship of traffic flow parameters, such as volume, density, and speed, to safety with calibrated performance functions of corridor-specific safety. On the basis of an understanding of this relationship, a possible explanation of the effect on safety of hard shoulder running is formulated. Empirical examination of the relationship of flow, density, and speed to the crash rate on selected freeways in Colorado suggests that as flow increases, the crash rate initially remains constant until a certain critical threshold combination of speed and density is reached. Once this threshold is exceeded, the crash rate rises rapidly. This rapid rise in crash rate may be caused by an increase in density without a notable reduction in speed and the resultant small headways that make it difficult or impossible for drivers to compensate for error. This model suggests that during hard shoulder running, crash rates decline because of the lower traffic volume or density per lane and that the safety benefits of a reduced volume or density per lane outweigh the adverse effects of the lack of provision of a full shoulder.},

This paper proposes a vehicle routing problem formulation for RISP and a customized heuristic solution algorithm. The algorithm iteratively applies a constructive heuristic and a local search algorithm in an incremental scheduling horizon. The proposed model and algorithm have been adopted by a Class I railroad for field implementations, and real-world case studies show that the proposed approach significantly outperforms the state-of-art manual solution approach.

abstract = {The rapid expansion of the biofuel industry diverts a large amount of agricultural crops as energy feedstocks, and in turn affects farm land allocation, feedstock market equilibrium, and agricultural economic development in local areas. In this paper, we propose game-theoretic models that incorporate farmers' decisions on land use and market choice into the biofuel manufacturers' supply chain design problem. A noncooperative bi-level Stackelberg leader-follower game model and a cooperative game model are developed respectively to address possible business partnership scenarios between feedstock suppliers and biofuel manufacturers. The models determine the optimal number and locations of biorefineries, the required prices for these refineries to compete for feedstock resources, as well as farmers' land use choices between food and energy. Using corn as an example of feedstock crops, spatial market equilibrium is utilized to model the relationship between corn supply and demand, and the associated price variations in local grain markets. With linear corn demand functions, we develop a solution approach that transforms the original discrete mathematical program with equilibrium constraints (DC-MPEC) into to a solvable mixed integer quadratic programming (MIQP) problem based on Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions. The proposed methodology is illustrated using an empirical case study of the Illinois State.

abstract = {The costs of acquiring parcels by condemnation are usually significantly higher than those for property acquired by negotiation, suggesting that the Right-of-Way (R/W) acquisition costs may best be described by two different regression equations. This paper develops a switching regression model of acquisition cost to simultaneously predict the probability of whether a parcel will go to condemnation rather than be acquired via negotiation and the corresponding acquisition costs under these two regimes. The error terms of the selection equation and the two cost equations follow a trivariate normal distribution to reflect co-dependence on unobserved factors (such as a land owner's tenacity or a site's view value). When applied to the properties acquired across the state of Texas for transportation probjects between 2008 and 2011, results of this switching regression model suggest that R/W appraisers and staff should pay special attention to parcels in commercial use involving a partial taking with a relatively small remainder and located in more urbanized areas. Comparison of cost estimates between the two regimes (condemnation vs. negotiation) suggests that condemned parcels will have, on average, 78{\%} higher acquisition costs across the 1,710 acquired properties and 51{\%} greater price variation. These results suggest that it is much more costly to acquire a property and more difficult to accurately predict its costs if it cannot be acquired via negotiation. The application of model estimates to an example corridor highlights the value of simulation to capture all modeling uncertainties.},

Using clustering techniques, walkers are stratified into one of six distinct groups based on underlying values and motivations. Among other findings, people who are most concerned with environmental issues and physical activity are walking much longer distances than average and are much more satisfied with their commute. In addition, a new conceptual model of walking behavior is presented that suggests that underlying values lead to home location decisions while simultaneously having a moderating effect on the perception and satisfaction with travel.

abstract = {38 This research examined travelers' willingness to pay for travel time savings (TTS) and the 39 variability of the dynamic toll prices on the I-394 MnPASS Express Lanes in Minnesota and the 40 I-15 Express Lanes in San Diego. The findings from both facilities indicate many travelers are 41 willing to pay a toll for small TTS. This resulted in revealed preference values of time for I-394 42 paying customers averaging {\$}73/hr in the morning and {\$}116/hr in the afternoon. Travelers on the 43 I-15 Express Lanes received slightly higher TTS than on I-394 and typically had a lower 44 willingness to pay. Their revealed preference values of time averaged {\$}49/hr in the morning and 45 {\$}54/hr in the afternoon. Based on how large these values are it is likely travelers are paying for 46 more than just TTS, possibly travel time reliability, meaning these lanes likely have added value 47 to travelers beyond time savings. 48 49 It was found that there was considerable variation in toll rates during the morning and afternoon 50 peak hours with tolls ranging from {\$}0.50 to {\$}8.00. Conversely, off-peak times showed little to 51 no variation. It was found that these trends were similar when looking at different days of the 52 week and even from year to year. Additionally, it should be noted that these trends were 53 common across both I-394 and I-15 Express Lanes, although more variation was found on I-15.},

Bradley 2 ABSTRACT 1 Throughout recent years there have been major discussions on the United States of America's 2 transportation. With escalating oil prices, congestion and an outdated infrastructure, officials are 3 looking to update and expand the transportation infrastructure. One mode of transportation that 4 has been discussed is the implementation of High Speed Rails (HSRs). The focus of this 5 research is on the Southeast High Speed Rail (SEHSR). Research shows that the distance, 6 population, and the demand have a major role in the success of a high-speed rail system. These 7 three factors provide insight to the success as the southeast portion of the United States shows 8 the potential to meet all three of the criteria with rising population, existing infrastructure, and a 9 suitable terrain for future growth. Another factor that " plays " a major role in the success of the 10 HSR is the external cost and benefits. Previous analysis of the SEHSR only factored in some 11 external cost and benefits, like congestion relief and safety. In 1999 the SEHSR was proven to be 12 potentially profitable based on their cost benefit analysis. This paper seeks to support this stance 13 as well as present other external factors that should be considered when implementing HSRs. 14 Based on the analysis throughout this research, the implementation of the SEHSR would provide 15 the southern part of the United States with major benefits in reference to its transportation system, 16 but it also will provide flexibility in how it can be planned and implemented. 17},

abstract = {The prevailing approach to transport market segmentation which identifies two distinct groups, "captive" and "choice" users, has widely been used by professionals and scholars despite the ambiguity associated with these terms. Furthermore, conflicting interpretations from the point of view of decision makers and individuals may result in negative policy implications where the needs of captive users are neglected in favour of attracting new users. This study attempts to address these concerns by proposing an alternative segmentation framework that could be applied to any mode of transport, in any regional context, by users and decision makers alike to better guide the development of transport policies. Using the results of a large-scale transportation survey, a series of clustering techniques are employed to derive this alternative approach for segmenting walkers, cyclists, transit and automobile users. The main factors considered in the final clustering analysis are the level of trip satisfaction and practicality. The analysis yielded four market segments: captivity, utilitarianism, dedication and convenience. Using this theoretical framework to understand the distribution of travellers among market segments is essential in identifying distinct and appropriate policy interventions to improve trip conditions. It is hoped that the segmentation approach and policy framework proposed here will encourage a better balance between pragmatic and idealistic goals in transportation policy. {\textcopyright} 2012 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.},

The model contains a lane-group-based cell transmission model (CTM) which sets different traffic capacities for links with different turning movements to flow out in an evacuation situation, an actual impedance model which is to obtain the impedance of each route in time units at each time interval and a stochastic route choice model according to the probit-based stochastic user equilibrium. In this model, vehicles loading at each origin at each time interval are assumed to choose an evacuation route under determinate road network, signal design, and OD demand. As a case study, the proposed model is validated on the network nearby Nanjing Olympic Center after the opening ceremony of the 10th National Games of the People's Republic of China. The traffic volumes and clearing time at five exit points of the evacuation zone are calculated by the model to compare with survey data. The results show that this model can appropriately simulate the dynamic route choice and evolution process of the traffic flow on the network in an evacuation situation.},

abstract = {The before-after study is still the most popular method used by traffic engineers and transportation safety analysts for evaluating the effects of an intervention. Compared to the cross-sectional study, the before-after study has lower within-subject variability since it directly accounts for changes that have occurred at the study sites. However, although this kind of study may offer superior performance, it can still be plagued by important methodological limitations, which could significantly alter the study outcome. They include the regression-to-the-mean (RTM) and site-selection effects. The primary objective of this study consists of presenting a method that can reduce the selection effects when an entry criterion is used in before-after studies for continuous data (e.g. speed, reaction times, etc.), without relying on the use of a control group. The distribution of the data could follow a normal or lognormal distribution. The study objective was accomplished using simulated and observed speed data collected in Florida. The proposed method documented in this paper was compared to the Na{\"{i}}ve, Control Group (CG) and the Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) methods. The simulation results show that the proposed method provides a more precise estimate than the Na{\"{i}}ve method, as expected. In addition, the method performs better than the CG and the ANCOVA methods when similar control group data are not available. The results also show that higher entry criteria, lower between-subject variances, and higher within-subject variances cause higher selection biases. When traffic engineers and urban planners evaluate or compare different strategies, the proposed method can be applied to adjust na{\"{i}}ve estimators of treatment effectiveness documented in previous studies without similar control group data. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

It is argued, 33 in this paper, that for a reliable crack detection procedure various regions in a road image have to be 34 accurately segmented. A procedure based on the texture and color properties of different regions of 35 images is used in conjunction with the Kohonen map, also known as self-organizing map (SOM). A 36 classification accuracy of 89.7{\%} was obtained with the Kohonen map based classification on images 37 taken with a regular digital camera with no elaborate lighting setup. Furthermore, a complimentary 38 algorithm is described for the removal of spurious classifications due to inaccuracies in the trained 39 Kohonen map. With the help of this algorithm, an overall segmentation accuracy of 97.7{\%} is reported. 40 This research work is also expected to impact other problems in transportation engineering, such as 41 road boundary detection and road marking inspection.

abstract = {1 Activity-travel behavior differs between women and men because they have the burden of 2 different social and household responsibilities. Previous researches dealing with gender 3 differences mainly pay attention to the travel itself, but few focus on the interactions between 4 time allocation and travel mode choice. Based on the activity-travel survey data of Suzhou, 5 China, data processing, gender-based descriptive analysis and rigorous significance tests are 6 conducted. Then, multi-group structural equation modeling is adopted to explore the complex 7 interactions among socio-demographics, time-use pattern and mode choice with a special focus 8 on gender differences. The results indicate that socio-demographics causing gender differences in 9 activity-travel behaviors include preschool children's number, annual household income, 10 employment status and age. For example, older women use less non-motorized mode than the 11 young, while older men use more non-motorized mode than the young. Besides, gender 12 differences exist in the relationship between activity duration and travel time. More subsistence 13 activity duration may restrain men's travel time but it encourages women who prefer to stay at 14 home make more trips out. In addition, the influence of activity duration on mode choice is 15 different across gender. Generally, women's travel mode choice is affected by activity durations 16 more significantly than men's. Furthermore, men use less non-motorized mode than women 17 when travel time increases. Private motorized mode usage is not so easier to be affected by travel 18 time compared with other modes. These results contribute to urban transportation planning by 19 providing some dedicated policies and strategies.},

Twenty-six drivers were recruited in three age groups (under 40-years-old, 40 to 5 59-years-old, and 60 years of age or older) with an equal number of male and female 6 participants. The driver stopping/running decisions are analyzed for six trigger distances, 7 measured from the vehicle position to the stop bar when the 4-second yellow indication starts, as 8 drivers approach the intersection at a speed of 72 km/h (45 mi/h). The study characterized the 9 impact of roadway grade, driver gender, driver age, and time-to-intersection on the driver 10 stopping/running decisions. The 0.9/0.1 probability of stopping/running was 3.9 s from the stop 11 line at the onset of yellow, while the 50 percent stopping/running decision point occurred when 12 the yellow indication was triggered while the vehicle was 3.0 s from the stop line.

We find that strong evidence for positive and significant association with total labor accessibility to high-income workers, which suggests that agglomeration economies based on larger labor pools of skilled worker are evident in metropolitan areas. The association is weaker for matured metropolitan areas because high-potential areas tend to fall in high-end low-density residential neighborhoods with preserved green spaces, where economic development is intentionally slowed down.},

abstract = {The primary purpose of this study is to understand better the roadway performance and the conditions that trigger congestion. Incidents of recurrent congestion were encountered at a location on New Hampshire Interstate 93 northbound, where radar measurements of speed were continuously recorded from April through November 2010. The root cause for the onset of congestion, both recurrent and nonrecurrent, is impossible to discern and explain by using exploratory data analyses alone; the data are too noisy. A time series modeling approach suggests that the magnitude of traffic flow and volatility, measured as the second (variance) and third (skewness) moments of flow residuals, can explain the triggering of congestion events for a highly variable environment that changes time by the time and day. The approach includes two types of mathematical models: generalized additive binomial probability models for roadway congestion that use functions of traffic flow and volatility as explanatory variables and functional data models that decompose and smooth traffic data to add insight to the roles that flow and volatility play in the congestion process. Most notably, the probability of congestion is shown to be a function of the short-term history of flow and volatility. The changes in these values—the first derivatives of flow and second and third moments of flow residuals derived from functional data model—are shown as well. Model selection, parameter estimation, and checking are presented.},

abstract = {Arterials are vital to the efficiency of urban road networks. While it is generally agreed that traffic safety on urban arterials is closely associated with operational conditions, analyses of these relationships has been hampered by the absence of continuous measurements of operational variables such as traffic flow. In Shanghai, an opportunity has arisen to acquire continuous operational data by taking advantage of the instrumentation of over 45,000 taxis equipped with Global Positional Systems (GPS). Data from these GPS equipped vehicles, hereafter called Floating Car Data (FCD), were used to examine the operational conditions of the critical arterial corridors within Shanghai's urban network system. Although the FCD is not able to collect traffic volume, it provides a more comprehensive picture of the road network's operational characteristics than the spot speed measures traditionally used. In this study, data during peak and off peak operational conditions (including variance and mean speed) were examined on a total 176 arterial segments from 23 different corridors within specific regions. These operational data, together with data on road segment characteristics, (e.g., segment length, number of lanes, median type), were used to construct a Hierarchical Bayesian (HB) model. The HB model was then used to estimate crash frequencies under various operational conditions for differing roadway segment characteristics. To account for the spatial correlations among the segments along the same corridors, Poisson-lognormal models with a two-level hierarchy under a Bayesian framework were used. Results showed significant relationships among operational conditions, roadway characteristics and crash occurrence on these urban arterials. Lower average speeds at the corridor segment level were found to be associated with higher crash frequencies. The implications of using FCD data to assess operational conditions, and the use of hierarchical Bayesian models for predicting crash probabilities under different operational conditions are discussed.},

We address two facets of the roadway congestion-emissions 4 relationship by investigating: (a) whether congestion performance measures are good indicators 5 of trends in roadway emissions and (b) what transportation performance measures are better 6 suited to portray macroscopic trends in emissions. In order to answer these research questions we 7 estimate macroscopic transportation and emissions performance measures at metropolitan and 8 corridor levels. Comparing several measures, we calculate the correlation between transportation 9 performance measures and emissions. We also present an analytical framework to understand 10 emissions trends as a function of mobility and travel demand variables. Results show that 11 Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Vehicle Hours Traveled (VHT) are key factors to 12 understanding emissions trends.

abstract = {Passengers in congested transit networks need to understand capacity constraints of vehicles when network congestion prevents boarding a vehicle. A strategy concept was developed for schedule-based networks. The passenger is assumed to know the schedule, to be aware of the capacity constraints, and to realize the possibility of being unable to board a vehicle. Therefore, the passenger must plan for several what-if scenarios at each decision point of the trip. The concept of strategies in networks with capacity constraints was extended in a study. The strategy costs were defined in terms of a random variable. Properties of this random variable, mean value and variance, for example, were used to define new types of cost functions. This approach accounts for passengers' aversion to travel time variability and risk. In the literature, these ideas were originally developed for path choice models in private traffic but had not yet been applied to public transport. In the current study, the developed mean excess approach was adjusted so that it could be applied to public transport.},

Randomness was included implicitly and in an uncontrolled way through the stochasticity of the simulation process, and sometimes through a logit choice model. Unobserved hetero-geneity is now added directly to the utility function through a random error term. Importantly, those random error terms are quenched, i.e., they will be the same for repeated executions of the choice model. Real-world simulation experiments for Zurich show that this substantially improves results. High-resolution destination choice for large-scale microsimulations raises several technical issues; pragmatic engineering solutions have been developed or applied to cope with them. These solutions are described in technical detail to assist in the further development of similar microsimulations.},

One of the 4 purposes in designing BRT system is to reduce harmful emissions, which are usually significant 5 for conventional transit diesel engines. However, a quantitative comparison of emissions is 6 needed to verify whether this purpose has been achieved. This paper focuses on comparing the 7 emission characteristics of diesel transit vehicles from BRT and conventional bus system, to 8 provide the support for policy decision on public transit management in Beijing. A Vehicle 9 Specific Power (VSP)-based emission estimation approach of heavy-duty diesel transit vehicle is 10 implemented. This approach is used to analyze the emission characteristics of BRT diesel vehicle 11 and conventional diesel bus within the 5th Ring Roads of Beijing. Their emission characteristics 12 are compared from a spatial perspective (i.e. non-bus lane, bus lanes, and near stop/station 13 scenario). The results show that BRT system plays a significant role in reducing emissions 14 compared to conventional diesel bus, with a 25.62{\%} to 27.37{\%} reduction in emission mass per 15 kilometer of X NO , HC , CO , and PM under the non-bus lane scenario, a 12.76{\%} to 14.01{\%} 16 reduction under the bus lane scenario, and a 22.94{\%} to 37.25{\%} reduction under the near 17 stop/station scenario. These results have important policy implications for developing strategies 18 for public transit systems in Beijing.},

Improvement can be in form of high quality off-road facilities or by 3 providing on-road bike lanes. While construction of off-road lanes is not always viable due to urban 4 land constraint and construction costs, on-road lanes can be a cost-effective alternative. There has been 5 no methodology proposed to design an integrated network of bike lanes. This paper introduces an 6 optimization framework to design a network of bike lanes in an urban road network. The framework 7 identifies links on which a bike lane should be introduced. Allocation of a lane to cyclists would 8 increase the utility of cycling, although it can disadvantage auto traffic. The approach balances the 9 impacts for all stakeholders. A bi-level optimization is proposed which encompasses the benefits of 10 cyclists and car users at the upper level and a traffic assignment and a bike demand assignment model 11 at the lower level. The objective function is defined by a weighted sum of a measure for private car 12 users (total travel time) versus a measure for bike users (total travel distance on bike lanes). A Genetic 13 Algorithm (GA) is developed to solve the bi-level formulation, which includes introduction of a special 14 'cross over' technique and a 'mutation' technique. The proposed optimization assists transport 15 authorities at the planning stage to quantify the outcomes of different strategies of active transport. 16 17 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Ison and M.A. Quddus 2 ABSTRACT The transferability of some market-and non-market based transport demand management (TDM) measures as candidates of reducing traffic congestion in Dhaka are discussed. It is suggested that the ever increasing travel demand of city dwellers cannot be met by providing transport supply only. The main impediment to building new roadways is the lack of resources and land. Despite the fact that Bangladesh is one of the poorest countries in the world, the automobile registration is growing at an alarming rate, and the city travellers experience day-long severe traffic congestion during any given weekday. Therefore, it would be wise to think about implementing less costly, as compared to supply side measures, TDM measures to reduce the gap between demand and supply. It is emphasized in the paper that the market based strategies like pricing measures and employer based TDM measures have good prospects, and the relevant authorities should undertake necessary preparations so that they can be implemented within a reasonably short period of time. The paper raises some cultural and traffic issues that make comparison between the use of TDM measures in developed and developing nations, and the transferability of policy somewhat complex and problematic. In addition to what has been raised, there are institutional, technical, educational, legal, political, and resource issues. These are not helped by a lack of robust data on which to model traffic flows and ascertain the true nature of the problem. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Recent advances in sensors allow for valuable opportunities to monitor driving behavior and identify its characteristics. This study proposes an algorithm for detecting lateral hazardous driving events and classifying their severity using in-vehicle gyro sensor data. The detection of hazardous driving events focuses on two lateral hazardous driving events, i.e., lane changes and zigzag driving. The algorithm classifies lane change events into single-lane changes and double-lane changes using a well-known and robust pattern recognizer, Support Vector Machine (SVM). Similarly, the motion of zigzagging within a lane and zigzagging between lanes can be identified by the algorithm. The proposed algorithm uses maximum and minimum yaw rate, and duration of hazardous driving events obtained from a gyro sensor. Performance evaluations of the algorithm show promising results for actual implementation in practice. The proposed methodology is expected to be effectively used for a fundamental to devise various safety countermeasure. For example, in-vehicle warning information systems and differentiated insurance fees based on driver behavior can be taken into consideration as useful further applications.},

In the engineering practice in China, the road geometric design is usually based on 4 the design speed. The fact that the operating speed is often higher than the design speed poses a threat 5 to the traffic safety, especially on the horizontal curves with long approach tangents. The horizontal 6 curves can tolerate higher operating speed by leaving more space for the lateral deviation between the 7 driving trajectory and the lane centerline. A field study is conducted on 67 horizontal curves of 8 two-lane highways in Zhejiang province, China. Based on the collected data analysis, a maximum 9 lateral deviation prediction model is developed. The lane widening strategy is finally proposed 10 according to the predicted trajectory deviation. The lane widening area spreads from SC point 11 (transition station from spiral to circular curve) to CS point (transition station from circular curve to 12 spiral) where the lateral deviation reaches the maximum and the lane widening should be enough for 13 allowing the maximum lateral deviation. The proposed methodology could effectively improve the 14 lane widening design on horizontal curves with long approach tangents on relatively narrow two-lane 15 highways quantitatively, and the accident rate can be reduced to a given expectation accordingly.},

abstract = {1 2 Earlier studies have shown that driving behavior differs strongly at emergency conditions 3 and normal traffic conditions. In this paper, we continue on these findings by 4 investigating how these differences in driving behavior have an impact on travel time 5 reliability. In particular, we focus on the effect of (relatively strong) heterogeneity in the 6 driving behavior. To this end, the microscopic simulation framework S-Paramics is 7 adapted accordingly, and applied to the emergency evacuation network of the Dutch city 8 of Almere. This experimental setup allows a structured and in-depth analysis of the 9 relationship between a number of driving behavior parameters and the emergent travel 10 time reliability. The main findings from this study are thus insightful and directly 11 applicable for evacuation planning and management studies. For instance, it is found that 12 although a reduction in drivers' mean time-headway and minimum gap acceptance 13 typically improves the overall evacuation time, at the same time this yields less reliable 14 travel times. Also, the reliability of travel times decreases over time resulting in (much) 15 less reliable travel times for those travelers who depart later. And finally, in general, 16 heterogeneity in driving behavior strongly reduces travel time reliability. 17 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Modern transportation planning considers issues such as traffic mobility and pollution proactively. Road safety on the other hand is usually evaluated in a reactive manner, and only when safety problems arise. Therefore, several researchers developed macro-level collision prediction models (CPMs) that could assess road safety in a proactive manner, and provide a safety planning decision support tool to community planners and engineers. However, these models could not target the safety evaluation of different goals of a typical city transportation plan. The motivation for this research arose from the necessity of developing tools that could predict the safety effect of a typical city transportation plan such as changes in the transportation and transit network configurations, and ultimately evaluate the safety level associated with alternatives of different transportation plans and policies. A set of macro-level CPMs was developed to investigate the relationship between various transportation and sociodemographic characteristics, and the overall roadway safety. The developed models considered the Poisson variations and the heterogeneity (extra-variation) on the occurrence of collisions. Data from Metro Vancouver, British Columbia were used to develop models using a generalized linear modelling approach with a negative binomial error structure. Several transit-related variables were found to be statistically significant, namely bus stop density, percentage of transit-km traveled with regard to total vehicle-km traveled, and percentage of commuters walking, biking, and using transit. The developed CPMs were shown to relate total, severe, and property damage only collisions to the implemental aspects related to the goals of long-term transportation plans.},

In this paper, one of the large national travel behavior surveys in Germany, the German Mobility Panel, is used to analyze how many vehicles could be replaced by electric vehicles without any restrictions for their users. The survey provides day-to-day mobility behavior for one week of about 1000 households every year. Additionally, fuel consumption and mileage of the vehicles in the sample are reported for eight weeks. To filter which vehicles could be replaced by electric vehicles, a set of conditions on the reported daily, weekly and two-monthly mileage is defined. About seven percent of the total fleet is selected by these conditions. Then the household context for these vehicles is analyzed. One of the results is that about half of the selected vehicles is owned by retired persons which makes it doubtful that this portion of the potential can easily be utilized.},

(1) In response to 5 transportation challenges that extend beyond the formal boundaries covered by current transportation 6 planning processes, local, regional, and state transportation agencies are developing collaborative 7 processes to plan for megaregions. This involves flexible adaptation of the roles and responsibilities 8 identified in Federal requirements for transportation planning. 9 This paper presents the results of research funded by the Federal Highway Administration on how 10 metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) are working with partners to address transportation issues in 11 seven megaregions. The research uses case studies to identify successful technical and institutional 12 approaches, innovations, and challenges for policymakers and peer agencies. The project team developed 13 a framework for evaluating the MPO approach to megaregions planning, which they refined based on 14 applications to the case studies. The case studies demonstrate a pattern of evolution, suggesting that 15 MPOs engage in a series of activities that may eventually support a megaregions-scale transportation 16 system. The study considers how MPOs participate and lead in key aspects of planning for megaregions, 17 working within and adapting the Federal planning framework to conduct technical analysis, forge 18 partnerships, develop studies, and support new projects.},

Kupfer, Goos, Kessels, Van de Voorde, Verhetsel 2 ABSTRACT Airport competition is a topic which recently gained interest in air transport research. However, 1 many studies about airport competition focus on airport competition for passengers or passenger 2 operations. Research about airport competition for air cargo is still scarce. This paper contributes 3 to the understanding of this topic by analyzing the airport choice for freighter operations. The 4 literature review reveals numerous factors which influence the airport choice decision made for 5 scheduled freighter operations. For the empirical part, a discrete choice experiment was 6 developed. Although the empirical part of the study was carried out in Europe, the approach is 7 international and therefore also of value for the American air transport sector. A total of 26 8 surveys were collected as input for a multinomial logit model. The results first of all showed that 9 the presence of passenger operations at an airport is not a significant factor in the airport choice 10 for freighter operations. This result suggests the need for analyzing the feasibility and merits of 11 all-cargo airports. Secondly, the presence of forwarders was revealed to be the most important 12 factor. This enforces the idea that due to the recent consolidation trend in the forwarding 13 business, forwarders gain market power in the air transport business. Therefore, future research 14 on the specific importance of the forwarders in the air transport sector would be useful as well as 15 research on the forwarder's airport choice. 16 17 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Significant productivity gains in urban systems can be achieved by improving transport infrastructure and thus reducing overall costs of travel. Shape grammars provide a solid foundation for coherent transport network design, and concurrently reduce complexity of planning processes. Shape grammars describe how network elements are joined with each other. However, only a few are listed in standards for network design without any fundamental research basis. Therefore, shape grammars remain vague and the standards lack of clear recommendations. In this paper, shape grammars for hierarchical network design are examined for di erent transport networks. The investigated shape grammars include di erent link and intersection types. The network models are artificially created to avoid a bias in the results due to history. The networks are optimized regarding an infrastructure and user cost function. Shape grammars significantly a ect transport network performance. As expected, the distribution of link types a ects the network eciency. However, intersection types and the corresponding delays in travel time have a remarkable and even larger e ect on network performance. In the future, more shape grammars will be examined to shed light on the impacts of relevant grammars for transport network design and to derive clear recommendations for urban planners.},

Using heterogeneous traffic data sources collected by advanced sensor technologies, 8 either passive-type vector detector or active-type automatic vehicle identification sensor for 9 network O-D matrix estimation becomes feasible and cost-effective.

abstract = {1 The impact of fine particulate matter on public health has been a long concerned 2 problem. It has been proved that the primary mobile sources of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) are 3 diesel trucks. In practice accurate roadway link-based modeling of the truck emissions remains a 4 big challenge due to aggregated and unreliable truck activity data. The advanced emission 5 estimation model MOVES has been recommended by US Environmental Protection Agency for 6 estimating the emission factors, but, supplying accurate and very detailed truck activity related 7 inputs becomes another challenge. The daily truck traffic activity is usually not estimated 8 accurately and cannot be disaggregated to hourly activity using the traditional methods. To 9 address this problem, two innovative econometric methods have been successfully enhanced in 10 this study to enable accurate truck activity based inputs for the emission estimation. The truck 11 factor spatial panel model (TFSP) and multinomial probit hourly VMT (MNP-HVMT) models 12 have been improved and tested using the Greater Cincinnati area's regional traffic data. The 13 application of those models indicates that using MOVES default input data underestimates the 14 regional PM 2.5 inventory. The proposed methodology also enables plotting the spatiotemporal 15 distribution of PM 2.5 emissions in a subarea. Such an integrated method provides a very useful 16 decision support tool for practitioners since they can also model PM 2.5 emissions at a detailed 17 level as required by project-level conformity analysis. The presented methodology is scalable 18 and transferable and holds technical promise in its application for different regions and for 19 different pollutants. 20},

abstract = {21 Traffic signs are important roadside appurtenances that provide critical guidance to road users 22 including regulations, destinations, and safety related information. Traffic signs need to be 23 inventoried by transportation agencies for asset management and maintenance purposes. 24 However, the traditional method of manually inventorying signs is dangerous, labor-intensive, 25 and time-consuming. There is a need for a safer and more effective traffic sign inventory 26 method. This paper is the first that critically assesses the use of an automatic method for traffic 27 sign detection using 3D LiDAR point cloud data in support of traffic sign inventory. The 28 contribution of this paper is three-fold: 1) it presents an automatic method for traffic sign 29 inventory using 3D LiDAR point cloud data; 2) it critically assesses the performance of the 30 presented method in terms of detection rate and false negative/false positive cases; 3) it suggests 31 the adequate parameter values to achieve a good traffic sign detection rate. Actual data, collected 32 on Interstate 95 (major arterial) and 37 th Street in Savannah, Georgia (local road), is used to 33 assess the performance. Results show that the presented method can correctly detect 94.0{\%} and 34 91.4{\%} of the traffic signs on both roadways, respectively, with less than 7 false positive cases. 35 The results demonstrate that the presented method using 3D LiDAR point cloud data is 36 promising for traffic sign inventory.

abstract = {The motorcycle is the main transport mode for commuters in Vietnam because it costs less than a car and has greater mobility on congested city roads. A better understanding of the characteristics of motorcycle traffic flow can be helpful in formulating proposals for traffic management policies. Under congested conditions, motorcycles are observed to change their directions and speeds quite often. This study focuses on the zigzag movements of motorcycles in motorcycle-only traffic, which are termed "non-lane-based movements." Research was conducted on the mechanisms of non-lane-based movements with a consideration of how two behaviors of a subject motorcycle acceleration and deceleration were affected by the velocity changes of lead motorcycles. A concept of safety space was introduced to explain these behaviors. Calibration data for the proposed model were extracted from video clips taken at road segments in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. By calculating the root mean square error of the estimated value and the field value, the proposed model reproduced the speed and direction of motorcycles with high reliability. A computer simulation was used to reproduce two basic types of non-lane-based movements oblique following and swerving and to verify the difference in the speed-flow relationship between lane-based and non-lane-based movements.},

In addition, the mathematical problem with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) (e.g., an optimal toll decision) requires iteration of traffic assignment. It is important to reduce the computational cost, especially in optimal toll and other MPEC problems. In this study, route-based traffic assignment is considered to examine the route-based toll policy. In this case, we need accurate tolled road flows; however, the same level of accuracy is not required for non-tolled roads. Thus, aggregation of routes that consist solely of non-tolled roads helps us to reduce the computational cost. We propose a method for aggregating non-tolled general road routes using sensitivity analysis. The proposed method is applied to a simple network, and its validity and computational time reduction are examined. As a result, this method reduces the computational time by 99{\%} under an acceptable approximation error in the simple network example.},

It focuses on how well the vehicle behaves on the road, through a set of nationally agreed safety and infrastructure protection standards, rather than how big and heavy (length and mass) it is. Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) encourage innovative vehicle concepts that improve the productivity of road transport, and maintain or improve road safety. Queensland has played a major role in the development of PBS A-double combinations for container transport. The PBS approach for these innovative combinations involved detailed examination of the dynamic performance of the candidate heavy vehicle combinations, and how these vehicles may interact with the existing infrastructure and traffic. Assessing and opening up strategic road networks that unlock the potential for PBS vehicles is seen as a means of addressing increasing road freight. Over 2009 and 2010, TMR undertook a project to assess a key strategic road freight route between Toowoomba and the Port of Brisbane for larger PBS style vehicles that would provide significant productivity increases, particularly for containerised grain for export markets. This paper summarises the procedures and policy considerations developed for providing access for the operation of these 30m long combinations. It also discusses some of the innovative heavy vehicle management practices that enabled the introduction of PBS A-doubles. The productivity and environmental benefits of the operation of PBS A-doubles on the Toowoomba to Brisbane freight corridor are also demonstrated. This project has provided a useful example of the potential for a PBS approach to containerised freight.},

This case study involved a 8 stretch of an interstate route with a parallel major arterial and several ramps. Traffic 9 flow and roadway capacity fundamentals were used to quantify, and then convert, 10 specific incident scenarios into actionable information. Different incident severities 11 with varying levels of freeway capacity loss and duration were simulated. Integrated 12 control during off-peak time which coincided with major events in nearby special 13 generators was also evaluated. The integrated control schemes involved different 14 freeway diversion strategies and concurrent signal timing changes on the parallel 15 arterial. Effectiveness of integrated control was measured through differences in travel 16 time. A base case condition (no incident and no diversion) was simulated as a 17 benchmark. Simulation results show that integrated control of the corridor traffic is 18 beneficial. The level of gains varied with the severity of the capacity loss on the 19 interstate section, the available reserve capacity on the parallel arterial, and the 20 selected signals timing strategy.

The supernetwork is constructed to include all the choices of each traveler's activity program in terms of individual preferences and, thus, is capable of representing the traveler's action space. The choices of park-and-ride facilities are embedded into the full activity and trip chains. Within this framework, the trade-off between the use of private vehicles and public transport and the trade-off between car-and-ride and bike-and-ride can both be captured. In addition, sensitivity analysis of the design of services or facilities is possible. A series of scenario studies is presented to demonstrate that the proposed supernetwork approach can be applied as a systemic analytical tool to examine traveler response to park-and-ride at a high level of detail.},

abstract = {With the reliability of travel time high on the political agenda, tools are needed to predict these indicators for the reliability of travel time in ex ante evaluations. In this paper such a framework is developed for assessing traffic measures and policies under a range of scenarios, with a particular focus on the resulting travel time distribution. The framework uses Monte Carlo sampling to generate stochastic realizations of demand and supply characteristics. The former characteristics relate to variations in travel patterns, the latter to variations in drive behavior (capacities, speeds). An extensive effort is made to account for variability in demand and supply resulting from weather, road work, special events, and so forth. The overall conclusion is that incorporating the variability of demand and supply characteristics has a large effect on the results of evaluation studies. This effect is demonstrated in an example case on a real Dutch traffic network, in which a typical dynamic measure, the opening of a peak hour lane, is evaluated with the framework. In this case, the average demand and supply conditions used for the one-shot evaluation lead to an underestimation of spillback effects, which are captured when evaluating over a wide range of demand and supply characteristics. As a result, the gains in average travel time are significantly underestimated in the one-shot procedure (6{\%} instead of 26{\%}). Further research should focus on improving speed and validity over a wider range of circumstances of the developed framework.},

abstract = {In this research, a passenger-centric passenger information system is proposed, which uses crowd sourcing and mobile phones so that passengers are not only information consumers but are also providers of information to the system. Passengers can allow the system to track their location through their smart phones when they are traveling on public transportation; this will compensate for the lack of a vehicle tracking system in public transportation, particularly in nonurban areas. Map-matching (MM) algorithms integrate location data (i.e.,latitude and longitude) obtained from positioning sensors (in this case, mobile GPS) with a digital geographic information system (GIS) road map. Any map-matching algorithm first identifies the road link on which a vehicle is traveling and then determines the vehicle's location on that road segment. In the proposed information system, at a given point of time, a number of vehicle locations (latitude and longitude) are received from passengers traveling on a bus. In order to provide a precise vehicle location at a given point of time, a novel map-matching algorithm using fuzzy logic, which integrates multiple vehicle locations (obtained from passenger's smart phones) with a GIS road map, has been developed. The developed map-matching algorithm was tested using real-world data collected on four different bus routes in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and also GPS data collected in and around Nottingham, United Kingdom. It was identified that the developed MM algorithm is efficient and capable of supporting the proposed passenger information system. (C) 2013 American Society of Civil Engineers.},

ABSTRACT 40 Pedestrian safety is a topic of growing concern. To better understand the environmental factors 41 (traffic controls, geometric and land use factors) associated with pedestrian-vehicular accidents, 42 this paper presents a methodology for quantifying pedestrian accidents at signalized 43 intersections. For this purpose, a rich and unique intersection inventory with geometry and 44 accident data was built and analyzed comprising a very large sample of 1,875 signalized 45 intersections across the island of Montreal, Canada. To investigate the impact of vehicle 46 movements, three separate definitions of risk exposure were used: completely aggregated flows, 47 motor-vehicle flows aggregated by movement type (left, right and through movements) and 48 disaggregated flows analyzing potential conflicts between motor vehicles and pedestrians. 49 Various negative binomial (NB) models were fitted to the data with and without geometric 50 design characteristics. Among other findings, vehicular traffic is found to be the main 51 contributing factor in accordance with previous works. It was a bit surprising to see that through 52 vehicular movements at intersections had a greater effect on accident rates than left and right 53 turns. A separate analysis was conducted to incorporate geometric variables into the risk 54 exposure models. Significant geometric properties included pedestrian phasing, exclusive left 55 turn lanes, commercial entrances and exits, total crossing distance, curb extension and number of 56 lanes. Exclusive left turn lanes, pedestrian phasing and curb extensions were found to decrease 57 pedestrian accidents, whereas longer crossing distances, number of lanes and more commercial 58 entrances and exits were found to increase pedestrian-vehicular accidents after controlling for 59 vehicular and pedestrian flows. 60 61 62 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. 1. INTRODUCTION 63 64 Sustainable transport cannot be achieved without non-motorized forms of transportation such as 65 walking. Despite the health and environmental benefits, walking can also impose some road 66 safety risks. In Canada, between 2002 and 2006, 1,829 pedestrians were killed while another 67 23,920 were seriously injured Elvik (1), Harwood et al (2) and Miranda-Moreno, Morency {\&} El-68 Geneidy (3). As part of the pedestrian safety problem, intersections are critical elements. In 69 Montreal, about 60{\%} of pedestrian injuries occur at intersections. In response to this issue, 70 transportation agencies are looking for efficient engineering countermeasures and better road 71 designs related to road geometry, traffic controls and traffic conditions that reduce injury risk 72 faced by pedestrians at intersections. By understanding which designs and traffic factors are the 73 most/least dangerous, engineers and urban planners can implement safety interventions to help 74 make roads safer for pedestrians. 75 76 Pedestrian safety in urban areas, particularly at intersections, has attracted attention in the last 77 few years. Various works have been published dealing mainly with the link between pedestrian 78 and motor-vehicle traffic flows and pedestrian crash risk (safety in numbers). A literature review 79 summary can be seen in (1). Most studies have looked at vehicular and pedestrian activity at 80 intersections but are limited to a relatively small number of intersections or have not 81 distinguished vehicle movements or have not included measures of intersection geometry. Very 82 few studies have looked at the impact of geometric designs, traffic controls and the built 83 environment on pedestrian safety. Some exceptions are the recent works of Schneider et al. (4), 84 Miranda-Moreno et al. (3), and Pulugurtha (5). Very few studies have looked at disaggregate 85 proxies of traffic exposure, such as the iteration of vehicles and pedestrians during short periods 86 of time considering the different turning movements (right, left and through movements). 87 Moreover, past studies have involved a relatively small sample of intersections, which may 88 affect the quality of the results. Finally, very few studies have used standardized and expanded 89 pedestrian volumes using expansion factors from automatic pedestrian count data (6). 90 91 Using a unique and large signalized intersection inventory on the island of Montreal, this study 92 has three main objectives: 93 94 1. Using automatic count data to convert peak hour counts to 24-hour average daily 95 values. 96 2. Studying the impact of pedestrian exposure to traffic, traffic turning movements and 97 pedestrian volumes. 98 3. Investigating the impact geometric designs, pedestrian traffic controls and built 99 environment attributes on the frequency of pedestrian traffic injuries at intersections. 100 101 For this purpose, a large intersection inventory containing most signalized intersections in the 102 city of Montreal was built. To standardize and expand pedestrian manual counts into average 103 annual daily pedestrian (AADP) volumes, automatic hourly pedestrian counts at six counting 104 stations were collected and used. 105 106 107 108},

Once the real time use of these data 4 is complete, they must be stored for long periods of time. In this long term context, the vast 5 amount of raw data is meaningless, which is a clear example of data asphyxiation. 6 Traffic management centers must aggregate and synthesize the data in order to extract the 7 maximum knowledge from them.

The method is based on the cluster analysis technique, and allows the 13 inclusion of preexistent knowledge, which eases the interpretation and practical use of the 14 results. The proposed pattern classification procedure is applied to five years of hourly traffic 15 volumes on a Spanish highway.

To accomplish this objective, the study established a state of knowledge and a state of practice through a review of existing guidelines and various literature sources and a survey of transportation agency practitioners. The research also conducted a comprehensive national investigation of driver behavioral characteristics through an extensive field data collection and analysis effort. These efforts confirmed the accepted values for perception-reaction time (1.0 s) and deceleration rate (10 ft/s2{\textless}/ sup{\textgreater}) and established 85th percentile speed estimations for through and left-turning vehicles. Justification was also provided for accounting for start-up delay. From the findings, a succinct recommended guideline for the timing of yellow change and red clearance intervals was formulated on the basis of a kinematic equation and its associated variable values. The recommended guideline encourages a uniform practical application that provides a framework that can be easily adopted into transportation agency practice.},

abstract = {26 Governments across the world have faced rising expectations to support economic growth by 27 maintaining, modernizing, and expanding highway systems, which in turn requires substantial 28 amounts of irreversible investments. Considering the scarce financial resources and unexpected 29 traffic demand uncertainty, both public and private investors are interested in expanding existing 30 highway infrastructures or delivering new highway infrastructures in multiphase in order to 31 mitigate the financial risk of overinvestment. The investment timing for the expansion, therefore, 32 becomes critical to balance the increasing traffic demand and the limiting capital resources. 33 However, conventional Net Present Value (NPV) based investment decision methods are unable 34 to find the optimal investment timing for the expansion project. We present a real options-based 35 valuation model to identify the optimal expansion timing. Specifically, we apply Least Squares 36 Monte Carlo (LSM) simulation technique to find the likelihood distribution of expansion timing 37 under the uncertainty of traffic demand. We also present a simulation-based algorithm to identify 38 expansion traffic boundary, at which it is optimal for the investors to expand the highway 39 project. Furthermore, we describe a procedure for characterizing the investors' financial risk 40 profiles under traffic demand uncertainty. A real case example of expansion project is used to 41 illustrate valuation processes of our proposed valuation model. Investors can use this model to 42 identify the optimal expansion timing and characterize their financial risk profiles under traffic 43 demand uncertainty.},

Although other studies have examined issues of regional power requirements of EVs, none has done so in conjunction with the spatial considerations of travel demand. For the forecast of both the future spatial distribution of EVs and the ability of these vehicles to meet current daily travel demand, this work used three data sets: the National Household Travel Survey, geocoded Vermont vehicle fleet data, and a geocoded data set of every building in the state.

Since tracking individual vehicles' trajectories 4 continuously requires a significant effort in data collection and processing, especially for a work 5 zone with high traffic demand, this study applies speed contour maps generated from analyzing 6 detector data around a work zone site to examine traffic at a macroscopic level and obtain queue 7 information. Analysis techniques for identifying queue observation space (QOS) and work zone 8 impact time on speed contour maps are proposed and assessed. Moreover, instead of counting 9 collision events to evaluate work zone safety, an index considering end-of-queue and prevailing 10 traffic conditions was presented. This safety surrogate is advantageous to be able to assess the 11 safety of work zones during the planning phase, rather than after-the-fact, based on crash data. 12 Applications of the proposed techniques on speed contour maps from a solid experimental 13 simulation design revealed beneficial results related to QOS, average shockwave speed and 14 safety impacts when work zones were scheduled at various times of the day with prevailing 15 traffic conditions for freeway management.},

abstract = {1 Transportation performance is seriously deteriorated by the events in the road net work, such as 2 congestion and accidents. Utilization and efficiency are traditional methods to evaluate 3 performance. Both of them are static, and only take input or/and output of the system into 4 account. With respect to the fact that logistics system shares the road network with other traffic, 5 evaluating transportation performance should take the dynamic freight process in the road 6 network into account. Thus, the objective of this paper is to set up novel approaches to 7 quantitatively evaluate transportation performance from the multiple perspectives. We introduce 8 two new measures of transportation performance based on observable information: dynamic 9 weight capacity utilization and the cost of transportation inefficiency as transportation impact 10 cost. Dynamic weight capacity utilization draws on momentum with the product of weight and 11 speed, comparing with ideal situation of maximal weight and free flow speed. Transportation 12 impact cost fuses truck loads, transportation value and traffic situation to present transportation 13 inefficiency. These two measures can be used for either logistics companies to better understand 14 and evaluate the performance of trucks, or system operators to get insight into the logistics 15 system. Weigh-in-Motion data and loop detector data on A12 motorway in the Netherlands on 16 March 2010 are the main data sources to represent the cargo and traffic information, and further 17 to test the concepts. Based on the result, dynamic weight capacity utilization and transportation 18 impact cost do fuse different perspectives in the freight system and are able to represent dynamic 19 transportation performance.},

Advisory messages associated with three driving advisory conditions (DACs), " Merge to the Right Lane, " " Zip Merge " (vehicles take turns), and " Continue Travel Normally, " were assessed through a questionnaire survey and driving simulation to seek the best messages in advising drivers in different traffic conditions when approaching work zones. A questionnaire survey was first deployed to identify participants' preferences towards a series of messages posted on variable message signs (VMSs). Participants rated each message from one to five as to their effectiveness in advising drivers in different conditions. Between the highest rated text and graphic messages under each DAC, participants gave their preferences toward either text or graphic messages. A total of 81 subjects participated in the survey. Survey results indicated that text messages were strongly preferred over graphic messages in all DACs. The effectiveness of several top rated messages identified in the survey was further assessed through a driving simulation. Various text and graphic messages were posted on portable VMSs along a straight freeway in a fix-based driving simulator. Subjects were asked to verbally respond with a number when they identified a message, denoting the DAC associated with that message. It was found that graphic messages were most effective in all three DACs in terms of response time and accuracy. Recommendations for messages in each DAC were made.},

The software also supports simultaneous targets defined for multiple geographical 37 levels (such as zones, counties and states). The use of the software is demonstrated in two 38 applications; the synthesis of the 2000 population of California (comprising some 33.9 million 39 individuals in 11.5 million households), and the synthesis of the ca. 2008 employment in Oregon 40 and surrounding areas (comprising 3.5 million workers).

INTRODUCTION 48 Population synthesis, within the context of transportation modelling, land use modelling 49 and similar domains, is the process of creating a representation of a complete, disaggregate 50 population by combining a sample of disaggregate members of a population in a way as to match 51 key distributions for the entire population.(1) In recent years, several population synthesizers 52 have been developed, primarily focussing on Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) techniques. (2) 53 A number of advances have been made in the use of this class of algorithms, including enabling 54 control at the household and person level (3) and automatically dealing with the zero-cell 55 problem. (4) 56 A second class of approaches, combinatorial optimization, has also been examined in the 57 literature. Combinatorial optimization is a simpler and perhaps more direct technique than IPF. 58 Broadly, a trial population is created from the disaggregate sample data, and then the overall 59 level of fit is measured across all marginal targets. Units from the trial population are swapped 60 with units chosen from the disaggregate samples, and if the measure of fit improves, the swap is 61 made. Approaches such as simulated annealing (5) can be used to modify this procedure to 62 permit swaps that are suboptimal locally, but may help avoid becoming trapped in a local 63 minimum. Combinatorial optimization techniques have been compared with the IPF-based 64 sample reconstruction techniques twice; Huang and Williamson (6) described combinatorial 65 optimization as " greatly superior " , and more recently, Ryan et al. (7) found it to produce more 66 accurate results given similar input data. 67 This paper describes a population synthesizer that uses a combinatorial optimization 68 approach, with a variety of features that make it useful in working with multiple sources of data 69 on difficult real-world problems. Two large-scale practical applications are then described, to 70 illustrate some of the benefits and issues with this synthesizer. 71 72 73 ALGORITHM 74 75},

The analysis results illustrate several important findings. First, as for the overall characteristics of the elderly, the mode of travel is dominated by foot across every category of trip purposes. Most activities are done at home and near home. Distant travel is generally reserved for medical purposes and family visits. Secondly, factors that discourage the elderly from traveling include older age, living alone, high levels of physical disability, low education levels, long distances from home to the nearest public modes, having paid work, and inability to drive self. Finally, as for the sequential characteristics of travel, the motifs, or the multi-dimensional subsequences common to travel patterns, are distinguished between elderly subpopulations regarding the variables of disability, occupation, living expenses, travel day, distance to nearest bus stop, person living with, whether they are able to drive, neighborhood, and age. On average, most trips are chained to the trip for leisure at home, on foot and within limited spatial range; the motifs appear with different frequencies between elderly subpopulations.},

In the present paper, 8 we focus on the case of one member of a two person household being asked to make choices affecting 9 the travel time and salary of both members. We highlight the presence of significant heterogeneity across 10 individuals not just in their underlying sensitivities, but also in the relative weight they assign to their 11 partner. Interestingly, we find that male respondents place more weight on their partner's travel time, while 12 female respondents place more weight on their partner's salary.

abstract = {This paper provides a practical procedure for designing efficient taxi pick-up operations at airports. How to do this effectively is an open question. Solutions are not available. Practices differ widely, reflecting different approaches to, and lack of research on the subject. The solutions are often unsatisfactory. At many airports, passengers routinely suffer long waits outside, exposed to the elements, after a tiring journey. Such disagreeable experiences are avoidable. Designing efficient taxi pick-up operations at airports is problematic. The peculiarities of this process preclude easy solutions. First, it involves queuing, so system performance is a highly non-linear function of the loads. Second, it features unstable transient situations as travelers typically arrive in bulk over short periods. Third, traffic is significantly differentiated, consisting of a wide variety of groups implying different service characteristics. Standard results from queuing theory thus do not apply usefully to this problem. The design process therefore uses simulation based on detailed observation of the local practices. It involves 4 steps: (1) detailed local measurements of both the arrival of travelers and taxis, and the service rates provided by taxis in different queuing positions; (2) creation and validation of a simulation model sufficiently detailed to account for these realities; (3) exploration of design alternatives to estimate the characteristics of the service that they would provide; and (4) selection of a preferred design that properly balances efforts to minimize average and extreme wait times. The paper demonstrates this procedure through application to the Lisbon Airport.},

ABSTRACT 46 This paper is about utilizing the web as a predictor for transport demand. The quality and quantity of 47 information on the web, updated frequently, turns it into an enormous sensor of present occurrences and into an 48 oracle for future occurences. On the same time, the quality of data coming from public transit, taxi and private 49 car usage is increasing and its availabilty starts to become a fact in many cities in the world. Such data 50 revolution will impact transport demand modeling, particularly making ellaborate approaches feasible for real 51 time applications. 52 We present here our approach to this challenge and provide particular focus to a case study with special 53 events in the city-state of Singapore. We build an origin/destination trip prediction model that uses information 54 extracted from the Internet together with tap-in/tap-out OD data from public transit (EZLink card).},

abstract = {3 This paper uses logit model to determine the reasonable walking access area of a rail transit 4 station based on trip characteristics including traveler individual attributes, walking environment, 5 travel time, travel costs, comfort and other factors. The principle of equal utility was used to 6 determine the acceptable walking access area. Using the survey data of two types of stations 7 from the rail transit in Nanjing, China, the TransCAD software is used to determine model 8 parameters. With the method proposed in this paper, reasonable access areas for those two types 9 of stations are obtained. Compared with the traditional method of using a single value for 10 walking access area, the proposed model has the advantage in accounting for a number of 11 individual and environmental factors. The study also found that the modeling results matched 12 the values of stated preference survey very well. It is indicated that the walking access area of 13 every rail transit station is different from each other. The walking access area of a suburban 14 station is generally larger than that of a downtown station, and stations of the same type may 15 also have large differences in their walking access areas due to the impacts of surrounding 16 environments. The results show that the developed method is effective and reasonable, and is 17 able to provide guidance for the location planning of rail transit stations.},

However, 4 due to the lack of analytical systems and sufficient data, many decisions made by 5 highway agencies today often lean heavily on judgments and/or empirical experiences. 6 This paper presents a study of scheduling preventive maintenance (PM) on the project 7 level for different pavement families based on conditions in Beijing, China. An 8 optimization method is proposed to find the best PM strategy based on life-cycle cost 9 benefit analysis. Pavement condition prediction models and treatment effectiveness 10 models are developed and calibrated based on data collected from field investigations and 11 a pavement management system (PMS) of historical database in Beijing. Based on a 12 recent case study, it is found that micro-surfacing and a 2.5 cm HMA overlay are the two 13 most frequently employed PM treatments and that they are mainly applied when 14 pavements are still in good condition. Maintenance cycles are mostly in the range of 3 to 15 5 years. A sensitivity analysis indicates that whether user cost is considered has a 16 significant impact on the optimal PM strategy. However, the optimal strategy is not 17 sensitive to variations in maintenance and user costs. The method developed in this paper 18 can be applied to schedule PM in pavement management practices, and can also guide},

abstract = {The Presidential Executive Order (12898) on Environmental Justice (EJ) was signed in 1994, and the US Department of Transportation issued regulatory guidelines for addressing EJ in transportation in 1997. Since these actions were taken, transportation agencies have adopted a range of policies, programs and activities to identify and address disproportionately high and adverse human health and environmental effects of their policies, programs and activities on minority and low-income populations. Based on relevant literature and structured interviews, this paper assesses how State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) are addressing EJ issues in their decision-making processes, and identifies common and best practices. The results show that several state DOTs have implemented public involvement programs and other procedures to assess the burdens of transportation investment. However, fewer agencies assess the equity of benefits; fewer assess outcomes of EJ actions, and even fewer link EJ analysis outcomes with future funding decisions. Based on existing practices and the regulatory guidelines, the researchers formulate a performance-based maturity-scale model that agencies can use to benchmark the effectiveness of their external and internal EJ activities, allowing them to evaluate how their practices achieve EJ outcomes in Transportation. The model is applied anonymously to selected agencies to illustrate different maturity levels in addressing EJ. The EJ maturity-scale model is a resource that transportation agencies can use to benchmark and increase the effectiveness of their EJ policies, programs and activities.

abstract = {39 40 Data from 27 metros show that while 63{\%} require some form of operating subsidy, levels of support vary 41 greatly between metro operators. The ability of a metro to meet rising customer expectations and to 42 provide a sustainable level of service quality in the medium to long term depends crucially on its funding 43 regime and the fares policies that underpin it. Dependable funding is required to provide stable levels of 44 renewals and enhancements. Yet, for the majority of European and American metros, in recent years fares 45 have been decreasing in real terms, labour productivity has fallen and subsidy requirements have 46 consequently increased at a time when public funds are increasingly scarce. The objectives of this paper 47 are to explore the extent to which fares cover metro operating and renewals costs and the manner and 48 degree to which any shortfalls in income are met by other commercial sources and by public funding. The 49 paper then compares the variation in metro fare levels and how they are changing over time before 50 discussing how fare setting policies can be improved to better reflect the true economics of urban metros. 51 This paper argues that metros in many cities require a much more robust and principled approach to fare 52 setting and regulation to achieve economic sustainability. In particular, fare adjustments must be applied 53 regularly and systematically, better reflect the costs of inputs and affordability, support the imperative to 54 renew assets and enhance service quality and, through differential pricing, more closely reflect the 55 variable cost of travel.},

Acknowledging that both roundabout design practices and the public's use of roundabouts are still maturing in the US, the HCM 2010 recommends local calibration of the capacity models to best reflect local behavior and specifies a calibration procedure using two gap acceptance parameters: the critical headway and the follow-up headway. Using this calibration procedure in a case study, this paper developed a calibrated HCM model based on the driver behavior at three single-lane roundabouts in Carmel, Indiana. It was found that both gap acceptance parameters in Carmel are significantly lower than the default values in HCM 2010. For validation purposes, the calibrated HCM model was compared to the actual 1-minute flow rates collected in the field during the congested periods. It was concluded that the calibrated HCM model is consistent with the field conditions for the low to medium circulating flow rates, and overestimate the capacity for the high circulating flow rates. Other findings of this paper include the impact of the exiting traffic, the circulating flow rates, the degree of saturation, and the amount of the gap acceptance data on the calibration results.},

Vehicle movements were observed at 11 roundabouts in Vermont, Wisconsin, and Ontario, Canada, and gap-acceptance parameters were estimated for cars and trucks separately. Consistent with previous studies, it was found that the critical headway and the follow-up time were longer for trucks than for cars. It was also found that the follow-up times for truck-involved vehicle-following cases were associated with the central island diameter and the entry angle. The gap-acceptance parameters for all entering vehicles were adjusted to a volume-weighted average of the gap-acceptance parameters for cars and trucks. The capacity was estimated with the existing capacity models with the adjusted gap-acceptance parameters and compared with the observed capacity at three roundabouts. It was found that the rate of reduction in the observed capacity with an increase in the circulating flow was lower at the roundabouts with a higher truck percentage. Also, the capacity models with the adjusted gap-acceptance parameters estimated the capacity more accurately than did the models with the unadjusted parameters. The study underscores the importance of considering the effect of trucks on capacity for the roundabouts with a high truck volume.},

The findings indicated that walking for commuting purposes was more strongly associated with neighborhood location than the built environment, whereas walking for shopping-eating purposes had a stronger association with the neighborhood built environment.  The results suggest that, without the provision of better public transportation service to suburban neighborhoods, walkable neighborhood development in suburbs may not be successful for encouraging walking trips for commuting purpose.    },

This exploratory study analyzes determinants of bikeshare usage of the Capital Bikeshare system in Washington, DC, with a special focus on bicycle lanes and frequency of bikesharing checkouts. It is hypothesized that placing bikesharing stations near bike lanes will increase ridership. GIS analysis links each bikeshare station with bike lane supply and control variables within a ½ mile area. Bivariate analysis indicates a correlation between bike lane supply and bikesharing usage. The multiple regression analysis finds a statistically significant relationship between number of bikesharing trips and bike lane supply after controlling for population, retail destinations in the vicinity of stations, and the percentage of households without a car. This study finds a significant correlation between the presence of bicycle lanes and Capital Bikeshare usage, and also highlights the importance of population density and mixed-uses in encouraging ridership. The study also reveals opportunities for further research into car-free households that seem to not use Capital Bikeshare.},

Although they have proved to be valuable in identifying and understanding the contributory factors that influence phenomena like road traffic accidents and travel demand, there are a series of methodological issues that limit their usefulness. This paper examines some of these issues in spatial models. The Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP), occurs where the statistical inference and interpretation derived from the zones alters due to changes in zone boundaries. Evidence from both the simulated and empirical data confirms the existence of MAUP. Other methodological issues are examined, including ecological fallacy, spatial dependency, and the problem of match individual observations to the correct spatial units. In order to avoid these problems, some strategies are recommended for addressing these issues in an integrated way. Finally conclusions and further research avenues are discussed at the end of this paper.},

abstract = {transfer from auto to transit mode to take place must be used again when the next mode transfer from transit back to auto takes place. The reason might seem trivial, but travelers can pick up their cars only from exactly where they had parked right before transferring from the auto to a transit mode. This paper refers to this characteristic as the " park-and-ride constraint. " Because of this additional constraint on intermodal trips, the route choices for both the initial and the return trips influence one another. Therefore, it seems reasonable to assume that travelers might not plan for each of their individual daily trips independently of the other trips. As a result, this interdependency should also be taken into account in the modeling. Baumann et al. discussed the necessity to compute intermodal round trips in shortest-path calculations (7). This necessity motivates the development of the algorithm for the optimal tour in this study. The main objective of this study is, in fact, to approach the intermodal shortest paths in a tour-based manner instead of on the basis of individual trips. Bousquet et al. also discussed the shortcomings of individual cal-culations of shortest paths instead of roundtrip calculations in inter-modal networks (8). They successfully developed a label-setting strategy to find a solution to the two-way multimodal shortest-path problem with auto, transit, bike, and walk modes. Their proposed strategy is based on sequential execution of a shortest-path algo-rithm. Bousquet et al. extended their approach to tours with more than one destination to visit (9). The number of shortest-path iterations needed to find the optimal tour in their approach is 2M + 2 + (N − 1) ? M(M + 1), where M is the number of park-and-ride facilities and N is the number of destinations to visit. The challenge in their approach, as they state, is the excessive computation time required when M exceeds 50, which makes it unappealing for traveler information applications. Although this challenge also exists in the approach described here, this paper later shows that for the same optimal-tour problem, the number of shortest-path iterations needed to find the optimal tour by use of the proposed algorithm is N ? (M + 2) + 1— which is a significant improvement as M and N grow. The key to the efficiency of the proposed algorithm is the introduction of multi-source shortest-path calculations in the context of origin–destination choice for optimal-tour problems. This paper mainly focuses on auto and transit modes and general-izes the intermodal shortest-path problem to an optimal-tour-based optimization problem with N activities to visit. The next section discusses the problem specification. The complexity analysis and the mathematical formulation to the problem are also presented. The solution method is then explained. To find the optimal tour in intermodal time-dependent networks, a network expansion technique and an integrated labeling algorithm called " iterative labeling " are introduced. Network expansion techniques have commonly been used This paper presents an efficient algorithm that finds the intermodal optimal tour (origin to origin) in a time-dependent transportation network while the algorithm implicitly solves the park-and-ride facil-ity choice problem with the inherent park-and-ride constraints for a traveler with a sequence of destinations to visit. To solve the problem, a network expansion technique that captures the constraints of park-and-ride behavior in the model and that transforms the park-and-ride choice problem into a dynamic network flow problem is introduced. An efficient iterative labeling algorithm that finds the optimal intermodal tour to serve the sequence of activities is also introduced. Multisource shortest-path runs are used in the iterative labeling algorithm to find the optimal tour with several intermediate destinations in an efficient manner. The performance of the algorithm is compared with the per-formance of existing approaches, and improvement is indicated. The solution method proposed benefits from the advantages of Dijkstra's shortest-path algorithm, which is made possible by (a) a nontrivial transformation of the original problem into a dynamic network flow problem and (b) an innovative use of a multisource shortest path in the context of origin–destination choice. The solution algorithm integrates time-dependent auto and transit shortest-path algorithms to find the optimal tour. The algorithm is implemented, coded, and tested on a real network, and the results are promising. In the modeling of the route and mode choice behaviors of trans-portation network users, the significance of park-and-ride facilities becomes apparent when transfer between auto and transit modes is considered. In fact, mode transfers in auto–transit intermodal networks with park-and-ride facilities have specific constraints. For instance, one constraint in the set of intermodal path viability constraints is that mode transfers must take place in park-and-ride facilities (1). Many studies have taken into account this set of con-straints in shortest-path calculations for intermodal networks (2–5). The use of approaches with formal language constraints to model intermodal shortest-path problems to ensure a viable sequence of modes has also been suggested (6).},

abstract = {This paper aims to investigate how the trade-offs involved in the construction and solution of restrictive master problems for the user equilibrium traffic assignment problem may affect the overall convergence performance of the solution algorithms. Three strategies used to update user equilibrium path sets in path-based algorithms are examined: an origin–destination (O-D)-based strategy that updates the path set for each single O-D pair just before path flows are updated, an origin-based strategy that updates path sets for all O-D pairs associated with the same origin at once, and a simultaneous strategy that updates the path sets for all O-D pairs together. Three recently developed path-based algorithms to update the path sets by using three strategies are implemented for solution of the restrictive master problems. The implementation strategies are tested on medium to large real networks, and their relative performance characteristics are compared. The results show that the construction and update of the restrictive master problems by the different strategies have significant impacts on convergence as well as solution noise. The computational time for convergence under the simultaneous and origin-based strategies is significantly less than that under the O-D-based strategy. In addition, the solution obtained by adoption of the simultaneous strategy exhibits less noise than the other two strategies. These results provide important theoretical and practical insights into solution algorithms for the traffic assignment problem.},

To develop a 3 tailor-made SP survey, we first needed to determine representative trips of urban expressway 4 users, including their destination choices, trip purposes, and route choices. To do so, a 5 probe-person (PP) survey was employed. This survey combined travel tracking by GPS with 6 a web-based diary survey. Using the PP survey data, a representative trip was identified for 7 each respondent. Respondents were then asked about their route preference for this familiar 8 travel destination and purpose. A tailor-made SP survey might help reduce the discrepancy 9 between real and hypothetical decisions, which has been considered a weak point of SP 10 surveys. A multinomial logit-type model was used to analyze the effect of traffic control 11 measures, including toll adjustment, on route choice. The results suggest that a measure 12 combining information provision and toll adjustment might discourage travelers from using 13 congested sections of urban expressways. Additionally, raising the toll may be more effective 14 than discounting the toll in terms of discouraging travelers from using congested sections. 15 16 Key words: Traffic control, Toll adjustment, Tailor-made stated preference survey, Route 17 choice model, Probe person survey 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Recently 4 developed tools for travel demand management include innovative parking pricing strategies that 5 incentivize alternative mode choice. The principal goal of this research is to examine the effects 6 on commuter mode choice of introducing flexibility and incentives into monthly parking 7 contracts. The demonstration consisted of running four different test modules over the course of 8 three four-month periods. The four test modules include a discounted transit pass option (Buying 9 Flexibility), two forms of rebate programs (Marginal Rebate and PayGo), and a free transit pass 10 option (Disincentive Removal). The first rebate program, Marginal Rebate, offered a rebate for 11 the difference between the marginal parking cost and transit fare on days when transit was used. 12 The second rebate program, PayGo, offered the same transit rebate in addition to a rebate for the 13 full marginal parking cost on days when a mode other than parking or transit was used. Analysis 14 of the commuting behavior among participants in this study demonstrated that the level of 15 incentive positively correlates to the propensity for mode shift to occur, with significant and 16 increasing mode shift in the two programs that offered the greatest flexibility and incentive. 17 However, the data collected also indicates that a discounted or free transit pass is not enough to 18 entice mode change.

However, this system is being stressed by continued growth in traffic, 3 trade, and pedestrian volumes, driven by the growing populations and economies of Texas and Chihuahua, in 4 general, and the El Paso/Ju{\'{a}}rez region, in particular. 5 While many regional stakeholders, agencies, entities, and community groups have brought forward their 6 own ideas about how border crossing issues should be addressed, there previously had been no coordinated 7 examination of the region's border crossings as an integrated system nor an assessment of operational strategies that 8 could be employed to make the existing system more efficient. Because the region did not yet have a clear 9 understanding of how the efficiency of the existing system could be maximized, it was very difficult to build 10 regional political, financial, or institutional support for new capacity. 11 This paper describes a new approach to border planning, one focused on identifying operational strategies 12 (i.e., staffing, system management, technological, and policy improvements) at the region's ports of entry.

abstract = {In developed countries such as Canada and United States, a significant number of individuals depend on automobile as their main mode of transport. There has been a stronger push towards analyzing travel behavior at the individual level so that transportation agencies can formulate appropriate strategies to reduce the auto dependency. Towards this pursuit of enhancing our understanding on travel behavior, we examine individual home to work/school commute patterns in Montreal, Canada with an emphasis on the transit mode of travel. The overarching theme of this paper is to examine the effect of the performance of the public transportation system on commuter travel mode and transit route choice (for transit riders) in Montreal. We investigate two specific aspects of commute mode choice: (1) the factors that dissuade individuals from commuting by public transit and (2) the attributes that influence transit route choice decisions (for those individuals who commute by public transit). This study employs a unique survey conducted by researchers as part of the McGill University Sustainability project. The survey collected information on commute patterns of students, faculty and staff from McGill University. In addition, detailed socio-demographic and residential location information was also collected. The analysis was undertaken using multinomial logit model for the travel mode choice component and a mixed multinomial logit model for the transit route choice component. The model estimation results were employed to conduct policy sensitivity analysis that allows us to provide recommendations to public transportation and metropolitan agencies.},

abstract = {11 Planners have long advocated land use policies like transit-oriented development, smart growth, 12 and new urbanism in order to reduce auto dependence. But do such policies induce people to 13 drive less? Researchers have argued that estimates of the built environment's effects on travel 14 behavior may be incorrect if those estimates do not control for the unobserved process of 15 residential sorting by travel preferences—a process referred to as " residential self-selection. " 16 Some scholars have argued that ignoring self-selection causes overestimates of built environment 17 influences and undermines advocacy for land use policies to change travel patterns. Others have 18 suggested that if residential self-selection is significant and ongoing, land use policies to expand 19 the supply of alternative development could enable more residents preferring transit and walking 20 to move to places that better match their preferences and hence reduce their driving. In this study 21 we distinguish between estimation and prediction, showing how each informs the other. We 22 explain theoretical reasons to expect either over-or under-estimates based on four direct factors 23 and one indirect factor. The direct factors are the base level of modal use for households with 24 different travel preferences, their elasticity of travel demand with respect to built environment 25 characteristics, the representation of such preferences in the population, and the extent to which 26 residents with different preferences successfully sort themselves into different development types. 27 The indirect factor is the undersupply or oversupply of such development. We explore some 28 scenarios that illustrate how different assumptions under the residential self selection hypothesis 29 will bias estimates of the built environment's effects on travel, and discuss their implications for 30 prediction. 31},

This$\backslash$npaper therefore has two goals. First, it briefly reviews the state of$\backslash$nthe practice in freight forecasting and ultimately concludes that the$\backslash$nmacro level is noticeably absent in most forecasting methods and$\backslash$nreviewed studies. Second, the paper presents a method of generating$\backslash$ncounty-level commodity forecasts that embody macro drivers and trends.$\backslash$nSpecifically, the approach ties together three critical pieces of$\backslash$ninformation: (a) a county-based social accounting structure representing$\backslash$ndetailed factors of economic supply and demand; (b) a set of domestic$\backslash$nmacroeconomic forecasts providing future industry-by-industry production$\backslash$ntrends that recognizes spatial growth patterns, changing technology,$\backslash$nrelative industry growth, and broad forces affecting final demand; and$\backslash$n(c) a forecast of U.S. international trade, recognizing differential$\backslash$neconomic growth of trading partners as well as pressures from$\backslash$ninternational competition and currency fluctuations. The result of this$\backslash$nmethodology is county-level trade forecasts (in dollars) that are$\backslash$nanalytically (not statistically) tied to macroeconomic growth trends.$\backslash$nThese forecasts can be used alone for sketch or policy-level analysis,$\backslash$nor they can be combined with meso- and micro-level information and$\backslash$nmodels for comprehensive freight forecasting at the infrastructure$\backslash$nlevel.

It is observed that when the conflicting vehicle type is 6 two-wheelers, the drivers intending to right turn are usually more aggressive. Critical gaps 7 obtained by various methods suggest that critical gaps in India are smaller than the values 8 obtained in developing countries. Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Interface System (ANFIS) and logit 9 models are developed for gap acceptance. ANFIS is developed by using MATLAB and 10 predictions of models are compared with logit models developed by using NLOGIT 4.0. For 11 model development 80{\%} of the extracted data (total data observations are 722) is used and 12 remaining is used for model validation. The percentage of correct prediction by ANFIS ranges 13 from 75.17{\%} to 82.16{\%}, while by binary logit model it ranges from 74.48{\%} to 79.31{\%}, 14 indicating slightly better performance by ANFIS. It is observed that both ANFIS and binary 15 models with only gap/lag explanatory variable performs reasonably well. 16 KEY WORDS 17 Uncontrolled intersections, Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Interface System (ANFIS), gap acceptance.},

abstract = {Traffic management is an important pillar of the Dutch traffic and transport policy. Until now the application of traffic management is local and reactive. There is a need to apply traffic management more proactive and on network level. In The Netherlands the Traffic Management Trial Amsterdam is an important project to show the benefits of integrated, network-wide traffic management. The results of an ex-ante simulation study are promising. The local set of measures already has a considerable effect on delays and for the evening peak coordination improves the situation with another 7{\%}. These simulation results are supported by the assessment results in real-life for the local situation. These results show a good resemblance with the simulation results, which gives us confidence about the results for the coordination. To come to an integrated and network-wide approach, a methodological approach to integrated traffic management is needed. How can traffic management measures be operated to reduce congestion on a network level, taking network conditions related to throughput, safety, air pollution, noise, etc. into account? A framework for integrated and anticipatory traffic management is developed and demonstrated with good results. It can be used as a next step towards real network traffic management},

abstract = {Many parks in the Northeast Region are experiencing some level of congestion. Issues range from a lack of parking at a favorite trailhead in Acadia to 10-mile traffic backups heading to the beaches at Sandy Hook, and from crowding on carriage road paths at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller to long security queues at the Statue of Liberty. In addition, many parks in the region are located in densely populated and urbanized areas where oftentimes the most frequently cited congestion issue is the access roads to the park. Visitation growth, related to population growth, special events, and development of land near parks, will likely worsen the congestion issues facing the Northeast Region in the future. The objective of this project was to develop the first of its kind region-wide congestion management system (CMS) for the National Park Service (NPS). The efforts described in this report involve both the process to conceptualize the CMS as well as the documentation of the actual system and its recommendations. Projects identified through the CMS process are envisioned to be programmed through the traditional six-year Transportation Improvement Program. The overall goals of this planning process were: To define the extent and nature of congestion in the Northeast Region; To broaden the understanding of the nuances of congestion management in a national park context; To develop a candidate process for addressing congestion at Northeast Region parks and to test that process through case studies; and, To define a strategy for moving forward in the region.},

abstract = {This paper presents findings from a survey and focus groups designed to assess mode choices, attitudes toward transit and other modes, and willingness to pay for reliable services. The survey examined why travelers to downtown Oakland, CA, a transit-rich location, chose to use transit or not. The focus groups examined responses to changes in tolls and carpool rules and likely responses should the Bay Area Rapid Transit system's reliability decline due to funding shortfalls. The factors that most significantly affected mode choice were whether the traveler had a free parking space and whether access to and from the mainline transit service, bus or rail, was fast. For bridge users, toll increases were usually less than parking fees and were not major deterrents for most drivers. BART's high reliability is a major attraction for its users. Experience using transit in high school or college was a strong indicator of adult transit use. Adults who lacked such experience were likely to decline to consider transit use, even to well-served destinations. Considering funding issues, BART riders were resistant to the idea that reliability would be allowed to decline. Those who did not use BART had already been deterred by travel time considerations or concerns about crime, safety, and sanitation. Finding convincing ways to express the consequences of underinvestment was problematic. Most study participants found costs in billions incomprehensible and did not understand the implications of other supply-side metrics. Expressing costs in user terms, e.g., days you would be late by more than 20 minutes, was far more effective at communicating the issues and increased willingness to pay for high reliability and levels of service.

abstract = {This paper analyzes the welfare effects of congestion pricing using a general bi-modal networks with hetero-geneous users. Transit service is modeled as a cheaper (due to lower operating cost) and undesirable (due to relatively high travel time) alternative compared to the highway network, and is added to each origin-destination pair as an exclusive link. Our analysis characterizes the critical users, i.e. those who suffer the greatest loss from pricing, as those who experience the smallest change in travel time after pricing. Ac-cordingly, we show that the critical users could be the richest, the poorest or a middle class, depending on their origin and destination. This finding highlighs the spatial heterogeneity of distributional effects. Furthermore, our numerical experiments indicate (1) Those with low value of time (VOT) tend to benefit more from the greater coverage of transit services than those with intermediate VOTs; (2) In the presence of poor transit coverage, the users having access to transit may share a disproportionally large burden for the congestion relief generated by an system optimum toll; and (3) The SO toll generally leads to larger welfare gap between the rich and the poor, compared to the toll schemes that have proportionally lower magnitudes and achieve smaller efficiency improvements.},

As a result, local public officials and planners are in need of flexible tools beyond traditional travel 3 demand models for estimating the carbon impacts of transportation policy and investment decisions. 4 While a number of publicly accessible tools and calculators offer high level multi-sector estimations of 5 GHG reductions, these generally lack local contexts and sensitivities, which are primary drivers of project-level 6 GHG reduction potential. Given this analytic need, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority 7 (LACMTA) recognized the connection between SB 375 data estimation needs and the existing calculation 8 capabilities of its congestion mitigation fee program web platform. The agency partnered with Cambridge 9 Systematics to develop a tool to estimate the project level carbon impacts of a diverse range of local projects 10 included in the congestion mitigation fee program project list. 11 To provide insight into complex policy questions and planning needs, the sketch planning tools developed 12 for LACMTA offer easy data entry, a transparent framework, a web-accessible interface, and immediate results 13 reporting while remaining sensitive to local conditions.

Abstract 47 Bus rapid transit (BRT) in the United States is relatively recent. BRT has many promises, one of 48 which is enhancing the economic development prospects of firms located along the route. 49 Another is to improve overall metropolitan economic performance. In this article, we evaluate 50 this issue with respect to one of the nation's newest BRT systems that operates in a metropolitan 51 area without rail transit: Eugene-Springfield, Oregon. Using a share analysis, we find that 52 between 2004 and 2010, about 42 percent of all new jobs in the Eugene-Springfield urban area 53 located within one-quarter mile of a BRT station. Using shift-share analysis, we find that BRT 54 locations attracted about a quarter of all new jobs. The analysis identifies those firms that are 55 especially attracted to BRT locations, such as administrative and support, educational services, 56 health care and social assistance, arts, entertainment and recreation, and accommodation. 57 Planning and policy implications are offered along with an outline for future research.},

Several existing paradigms in the literature are related directly 7 to such a routing objective. What is not well understood is the taxi driver's route choice behavior 8 when a taxi is vacant, which is likely to be driven by a rather different objective.

abstract = {Anecdotal and empirical evidence has shown strong associations between the built environment and individuals' travel decisions. Nevertheless, data about individuals' travel behavior and the nature of the retail environment have not been linked at the fine-grained level for verifying such relationships. Global positioning systems (GPS) and geographic information systems (GIS) have revolutionized how we measure and monitor land use and individual travel behavior, and thus have provided opportunities for filling these research gaps. Compared with traditional travel survey methods, GPS technologies provide more accurate and detailed information about individuals' trips. Based on the GPS travel data of 141 subjects in the Twin Cities, the authors analyze the impact of individuals' interactions with road network structure and the destinations' accessibility on individuals' destination choice for home-based non-work shopping trips. The results reveal that higher accessibility and diversity of services make a destination more attractive. Further, accessibility and diversity of establishments in a walking zone are often highly correlated. In terms of network structure, a destination reached via a more circuitous or discontinuous route dampens its appeal. In addition, the authors build an agent-based simulation tool to study retail location choice on a supply chain network consisting of suppliers, retailers, and consumers. The simulation software illustrates that the clustering of retailers can emerge from the balance of distance to suppliers and the distance to consumers. This tool is further applied in the Transportation Geography and Networks course (CE 5180) at the University of Minnesota. Students' feedback reveals that it is a useful active learning tool for transportation and urban planning education. In addition to planning education, the software also has the potential of being extended and calibrated as an integrated regional transportation-land use forecasting model.},

With new requirements for assessing work zone impacts on the traveling public, agencies face important challenges with instrumenting and evaluating work zones. . Traditionally, agencies have relied on custom instrumentation or person-based monitoring of work zones, which can be very resource-intensive. In an effort to overcome the need for custom data collection in work zones, this paper explores the use to existing roadside radar sensors that are commonplace for many agencies across the US. The method uses detailed work zone diaries completed by the contractor to identify location and temporal extent of work zone activities, and uses that information to query an existing sensor database. The paper presents the approach, shows results, and discusses challenges associated with this automated data collection approach.  The method is ultimately geared at estimating work zone capacities for use in the freeway facilities analysis method described in the Highway Capacity Manual 2010.  The findings show some promise, but are oftentimes impacted by inadequate placement of the sensors. The paper concludes that a targeted instrumentation may in the end allow for more reliable and efficient data collection, despite the additional resource needs.

Mizusawa, Guild, Adhar, and Ling 2 ABSTRACT Pacific islands countries heavily rely on marine transport to access essential international economic services and domestic socioeconomic services for their economic growth and improve quality of life due to their geographic dispersion across the Pacific Ocean. A safe and reliable environment is essential to achieve cost-effective shipping services. To ensure that shipping services can be sustained, routes need to be designed to maximize passenger and cargo revenues, so that they are large enough to offset operating and indirect costs. Currently, the government of Solomon Islands is implementing a project and technical assistance with financial and technical supports from Asian Development Bank and European Union to reform institution, rehabilitate infrastructure, and implement a franchise shipping scheme to achieve equitable distribution of benefits, such as improved access to socioeconomic activities. This paper will introduce Solomon Islands' experiences of strengthening maritime transport sector in terms of institution, infrastructure, and shipping service. Also it will address lessons learned from past experience under the ongoing project and technical assistance. The lessons indicating the needs of a holistic approach, focusing on capacity development, responsibility definition, rationale prioritization process, and financial and equipment support, can be incorporated into the design of a future maritime transport project.},

abstract = {(190 words) 1 2 This research investigated the frequency of travel to a grocery store based on four possible domains of 3 influence: the individual travelers' demographics and socioeconomic status; attitude toward food; food 4 shopping behavior (mode choice and store selection); and the built environment around homes and 5 grocery stores. Grocery shopping travel data came from the 2009 Seattle Obesity Study. There were 2,001 6 respondents sampled from King County, WA. Four binary logistic models served to estimate the impact 7 of the four domains on traveling ≤ once and ≥ twice a week to a grocery store. The results showed that the 8 respondents' attitudes toward food and their food shopping behaviors exerted the strongest influence on 9 grocery shopping trip frequency. Built environment variables only had a modest influence. The strongest 10 predictors of a higher frequency of weekly grocery shopping trips were: having more children ages 12-18 11 in the household, shopping at a high-cost grocery store, and not driving to the store. The study suggested 12 that frequent shoppers were less likely to drive to their primary store and did not appear to contribute to 13 additional driving trips, whereas infrequent shoppers traveled longer distances to their grocery stores.},

abstract = {California's criteria-air-pollutant (CAP) and greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions reduction goals have encouraged policies that support plug-in-electric vehicles (PEVs). This paper explores current and planned policies that promote PEVs, potential emissions benefits from PEV adoption in California by 2020, and future policy directions. Policies reviewed include the Zero Emission Vehicle regulations, the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, and the Clean Car Standards, which all require GHG reductions. Forthcoming and expected policies discussed include policies prompted by the California Public Utilities Commission Alternative-Fueled Vehicle Rulemaking decision and existing and planned PEV incentive programs. The paper also describes an analysis conducted to estimate and value GHG and CAP emissions reductions from PEVs in California by 2020. This analysis finds that the reduction in tailpipe emissions dominates any added power-plant emissions and values the benefits at {\$}750-{\$}1,500 per vehicle in an "expected" PEV penetration scenario (where PEVs are predominantly plug-in-hybrid vehicles) and {\$}1,000-{\$}2,500 per vehicle in an aggressive penetration scenario (in which battery-electric-vehicles comprise one-third of all PEVs). This monetization of benefits provides a basis for justifying future PEV subsidy programs. The policy review and emissions analysis set the stage for a discussion of the California's PEV-related policy outlook, including possible policy directions that will coordinate PEV-related programs, distinguish electric fuel ("e-fuel") from electricity used for other purposes, and provide stable, long-term incentives for PEV deployment.},

abstract = {32 In response to the growing environmental concern, the use of low speed vehicles (LSVs) on public 33 roadways is gradually increasing in recent years as a short-range alternative to fossil-fueled autos. 34 Primarily designed for protected environments and gated communities, LSVs have a maximum speed 35 limit of 25 mph and are not subjected to the same Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards mandatory 36 for regular passenger cars. This research presents a comprehensive planning methodology to develop a 37 secondary low speed roadway network primarily intended for use by LSVs that can be applied to small 38 or medium-sized cities with closely located activity spaces. Typically, small or medium sized cities 39 have limited planning or construction resources, therefore the objective was to develop the low speed 40 network based on the existing road system of the city, with minimal infrastructure modifications. The 41 City's Transportation Plan and public opinion on route preference were integrated with the road 42 analysis tool of Google Earth to accomplish the network development process. Public involvement in 43 the process through survey provided valuable insight on users' route choice behavior; whereas the 44 roadway inventory by City's Transportation Planning document and Google Earth helped to evaluate 45 city's actual transportation infrastructure and also helped to analyze the factors influencing LSV users' 46 route preference behavior. The developed low speed roadway network is expected to provide safe and 47 efficient connectivity from neighborhood areas to major activity centers of the city by LSVs, while 48 minimally affecting the safe operations of regular automobiles.},

Previous studies were generally based on drivers' behavior data from stated preference and revealed preference surveys that are costly to collect, from loop detector data that are hard to account for drivers' route choice, or from GPS data that require additional devices installed. This study proposed a new approach to estimate drivers' value of travel time and its reliability based on dynamic toll information collected from I-394, Minnesota. Compared with other types of data sources, it is reliable and easy to collect the drivers' route choice data without additional equipment installed. After analyzing traffic pattern changes, we estimated VOT and VOR distributions for each weekday, based on the toll records of the MnPASS system. We found that MnPASS users valued travel time reliability more than travel time savings, based on the travel time reliability we defined. We also observed that the estimated VOT and VOR were higher on Friday than other weekdays.},

Because global air traffic volume is continuously increasing, improvement in air traffic control has become a priority. During this decade, European and United States initiatives have been launched to design the future of air traffic management. One of their objectives is to increase air traffic density and optimize flight route plans. This can be achieved through en route deconfliction. Air conflicts have the potential to occur when two or more aircraft are predicted to be below a separation norm in the near future. Such situations affect air traffic controllers' workload; thus, these situations limit controllers' capacity to deal with large numbers of aircraft and induce flight delay. Reducing air traffic controllers' potential workload through speed regulation has been investigated in the En Route Air Traffic Soft Management Ultimate System project.

Mills, Attoh-Okine and McNeil 2 ABSTRACT 1 2 The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) uses its pavement management system to 3 monitor the condition of road pavements within its jurisdiction. As part of the pavement 4 management system, DelDOT has in place a database containing an inventory of roads with 5 features such as location, geometry, functional class, age, type of surface overlay, pavement 6 condition rating and the annual average volume of traffic carried. Essential tools for any 7 pavement management system are a database of pavement performance data and a suite of 8 pavement performance models that portray past roadway performance and predict future 9 roadway condition. This gives managers and other practitioners information about the state of 10 their roads and equips them with the background needed to make informed decisions about 11 interventions to keep roads in good condition. This study sought to develop performance models 12 for the DelDOT pavement management system. The study began by reviewing literature on how 13 pavement performance models have been developed in the past. The knowledge obtained served 14 as basis for the development of the models. Performance models were developed using data from 15 the pavement management system after data had been checked for completeness and 16 consistency. The models were sound and were validated statistically to determine if they met 17 given roadway boundary conditions. Recommendations were made on how data within the 18 pavement management system could be improved to increase the power of predictability of 19 future models. 20 21 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The network is a general transportation network with different modes (auto, bus, rail, walk ...), divided to two major categories as private and public modes, considering proper transfer constraints. The goal is to find the best path according to the generalized cost, including private-side travel cost, public-side travel cost, transfer cost, etc. The paper describes a detailed network model of transfers between modes, which is used to improve the accounting of travel times during these transfers. The intermodal path algorithm is a sequential application of transit and auto shortest paths and results in the optimal intermodal path, indicating which park-and-ride location is optimal for transferring from private to public modes. The computational complexity of the algorithm is shown to be a significant improvement over existing algorithms. Also, the algorithm is applied to a real network within a dynamic traffic and transit assignment procedure, integrated with sequential activity choice model.},

In this study, researchers determined many key points about motorist interpretations of TMCMS symbols and text messages. The study found that ( a ) the accident symbol was well understood and enhanced motorists' abilities to recall the situation during limited viewing times, ( b ) the sign with the "Man Working" figure without the diamond background outline was recommended because it elicited the best reaction time by study participants, and ( c ) the lane-blocked symbols worked well to communicate lane conditions to drivers.},

A brief discussion of asset management is presented with data used in current practice and complementary data from SHM. To use any data in a timely and effective manner requires an information management system that considers all constituents, from bridge owners to decision makers to users. Thus a multilayered bridge information system that considers multiple end users and includes a broad range of data sources is presented. After discussion of the proposed system, the paper presents long-term SHM data and inspection and maintenance data from a movable bridge in Florida. Dynamic data from long-term monitoring were analyzed with time and frequency domain methods as well as statistical methods, which were feasible with large amounts of data. The results of the analysis showed that certain anomalies at critical components of the bridge (e.g., span-lock and gearbox mechanisms) were captured. It was also shown that the issues identified with SHM data were related to the operation and maintenance of the bridge, as described in its maintenance logs. Integration of monitoring systems with routine maintenance applications could be expected to provide timely and effective bridge management.},

abstract = {Transportation mobility is critically important to the well-being of the elderly population. By using data from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey, this paper proposes a metric to measure immobility among elderly over different time frames. Specifically, "short-term immobility" is defined as immobility for a single day while "long-term immobility" refers to immobility of a week or more, and "medium-term immobility" is between 2 to 7 days. In addition, long-term immobile elderly are divided into two mobility-preference groups on the basis of whether they prefer going out of their home. With this immobility metric, and respondent-stated mobility preferences, descriptive analysis and discrete choice models are used to analyze the correlates of immobility among the American elderly. African American elderly are found to be more likely to be long-term immobile than those from other racial groups. Such racial differences are not readily apparent in immobility over shorter time frames. This result explains that most previous studies did not find any racial differences in elderly mobility because of the shorter time frames of analysis of those studies. The presence of another elderly companion in the household is found to have a significant positive influence on a person's mobility. Medical conditions may impose physical constraints on the ability to travel but do not seem to curb the desire for mobility among the elderly. However, the inability to drive is associated with a strong preference against going out of the home, suggesting that the automobile-centric land-use transportation system can potentially curb the desire of nondriving elderly to travel out of the home.},

This paper reports two studies that characterize access to Level 1 (110/120V) and Level 2 (220/240V) charging opportunities at new vehicle buyers' homes. Study 1 illustrates a broader methodology focusing on Level 1 availability implemented in a representative nationwide U.S. sample (n = 2,373). Half of respondents reported parking within 25 feet of a Level 1 outlet at their home, with higher proportions among those with detached homes or private garage parking—though these conditions are neither necessary nor sufficient. There is variation in access to home recharging across interstate regions pertinent to grid operations. Study 2 illustrates an even finer scale regional analysis of Level 1 and Level 2 access for new-vehicle buyers in San Diego County, California (n = 548). About two-thirds of respondents report present access to Level 1 electrical infrastructure and just under one-third report access to Level 2. For this sample, the authors estimate the feasibility and price of Level 2 installation based on current infrastructure—ranging from {\$}1000 to {\$}7000. Twenty percent of the households are both able and willing to install Level 2—if they can buy the PEV they design. They conclude that consumer-based estimates of home recharge potential can improve understanding of PEV demand, use, energy impacts, and prioritizations for developing recharge infrastructure—while highlighting the importance of regional differences.},

abstract = {Creating a bus network that covers demand conveniently is an important part of transit planning. The high sensitivity of a bus network to any demand changes implies that demand variations need to be considered in the design process. Many cities around the world experience seasonal demand variations which have impacts on the optimality of their bus networks. In order to overcome this problem, the bus network should be convenient in all seasons for all corresponding demand scenarios. This issue has not been thoroughly addressed in the literature, thus considered in this work. Analyzing seasonal demand variations in the bus-network design process increases further the computational complexity which is known already as an NP-hard problem. A solution procedure using efficient genetic algorithm has been proposed to solve the problem. The modeling and use of the solution algorithm with a defined objective-function value provides the optimization of the problem. The proposed algorithm has a shorter running time than solving the model in a conventional manner. The method was applied as a case study to the city of Mashhad in Iran with over 3 million residents and 20 million visitors annually. This case study, characterized by significant seasonal demand variation, demonstrates how to find the best single network of bus routes to suit the annual passenger demand.

abstract = {Nowadays, the functional design of a road junction is carried out by the use of the microsimulation models software, but it is important to underline that, despite the great diffusion of these instruments, there has not been the same improvement of appropriate methods in order to validate and calibrate these models. The main target to pursue is to know which and how many input parameters are most significant for the variation of output results that microscopic simulation software is able to provide. In this study, Authors present and complete a calibration procedure between observed performances of a roundabout placed in a city in province of Cosenza (ITALY) and performances obtained by the use of micro-simulation software (VISSIM). Two sets of scenarios different among them only for the traffic flow distribution were analyzed: Free Flow Condition (FFC), from which to derive the average speed profiles along a through movement; and Saturation Flow Condition (SFC), to determine the average stop-line delay along a particular branch. A total of 216+216 scenarios for single-lane roundabouts has been composed and analyzed in order to evaluate the best combinations of kinematic and behavioural (mainly in terms of acceptable gap) parameters in the simulation of roundabouts and to estimate of average percent errors between observed and simulated performances. This study has allowed to delineate some important conclusions about the choice calibration procedures of micro-simulation software used in experimental plan. In particular: a range of approach speed, a range of length of a reduced speed zone for each entry, a definite value of critical gap and the position of desired exiting speed section represent the more revealing parameters that have allowed the best calibration.},

In this paper the time-space prism framework is used to assess sensitivity of PPA size to different parameters and to build choice sets for regional destination choice models. We explain the implication of different parameters to choice set formation in a step-wise manner and illustrate not only the complexity of the idea and the high computational demand but also behavioral realism. In this context, this paper tests the feasibility of using constraint-based time-space prism to find the choice sets for a large-scale destination choice model, and identifies a variety of implementation issues. Computational demand is estimated based on a household travel survey for the Southern California Association of Government, and the feasibility of using time-space prisms for destination choice models is assessed with different levels of information on the network and destinations available. The implications of time of day effects and flexibility in scheduling on choice set development due to varying level of service on the network and availability of activity opportunities are discussed and numerically assessed. {\textcopyright} 2012 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.},

abstract = {Improving public-transit (PT) connectivity is one of the most vital tasks in transit-operations planning. A poor connection can cause some passengers to stop using the transit service. Service-design criteria always contain postulates to improve routing and scheduling coordination (intra- and inter-agency transfer centers/points and synchronized/timed transfers). However, ostensibly the lack of well-defined connectivity measures precludes the weighing and quantifying of the result of any coordination effort, and thus makes it difficult for the decision makers to draw any firm conclusion. This work provides an initial methodological framework, concepts and tools for detecting weak segments in inter-route and inter-modal chains (paths) for possible revisions/changes. The approach used is based on a description of PT connectivity network involved with attributes and passenger flows. Formulations are developed to detect weak segments of the PT network, and the max-flow algorithm is utilized to find out the locations of the bottlenecks within this network. Two case studies are presented of two major cities undergoing two major sporting events; the city of London in the United Kingdom hosting the XXX Olympic Games in 2012 and the city of Auckland in New Zealand that hosted the 7th Rugby World Cup (RWC) in 2011. These cities are used to offer a comparison of the bottlenecks in their PT networks. The results indicate that in the City of London, the PT lines of Tube (Bakerloo), Rail (London Euston) and Bus (Route 18) leading to the Wembley Stadium Station are the bottlenecks and in the City of Auckland, the bottlenecks are the PT lines of Bus (Routes 212-249) and Rail (Western Line) leading to the Eden Park Stadium. It is evident that improving the capacity and accessibility of these lines will increase the maximum flow (throughput) to their respective sport stadiums. Overall, the PT connectivity measures help to detect the weakest arc, path or node in comparison with other identified arcs, paths, or nodes within the PT network. These tools can assist decision makers in planning for future PT improvements. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

We identified thirteen distinct intra-22 household interaction patterns in allocating household tasks between husband and wife using latent class 23 cluster analysis: six for couples without children and seven for couples with one child. One of the 24 important differences between the clusters is that couples without children plan in-home activities and 25 out-of-home independent activities on the same day or pursue joint activities together, but in households 26 with one child, tasks such as providing ride for child, spending time with child for out-of-home activities, 27 and purchasing activities are allocated either to the wife or to the husband leading to significantly 28 different patterns and therefore clusters. In addition, our analysis on time-space prism accessibility for 29 each cluster shows that men and women seem to go through different transitions in terms of accessibility 30 when they have children. The clusters clearly indicate that wives are more likely allocate their time for 31 children in different ways than their husbands do, and this result implies that the way individuals 32 experience the environments may be systematically different depending on their roles. Therefore, a more 33 individualized and contextual approach is needed about household time and task allocation and 34 accessibility.

abstract = {It is not uncommon for transportation agencies to use only dilemma zone (DZ) detectors without stop bar detection at rural high-speed signalized intersections. In the absence of stop bar detection, the minimum green is typically timed to sufficiently clear the vehicles stored between the stop bar and the DZ detectors at the onset of green. Variable initial feature is of limited use in this case because the presence of multiple detectors per channel complicates the proper assignment of added initial value. In addition, the current state of practice in predicting the initial queue does not account for other site characteristics that could influence the actual queue clearance time. To address this issue, this paper proposes a procedure to improve the prediction of required queue clearance time on major through approaches where only the dilemma zone detectors are provided. The proposed methodology predicts on a cycle-by-cycle basis more accurate queue clearance time based upon red-interval actuations and approach characteristics, which include turning movements, driveway activities, and presence of heavy vehicles. The methodology was implemented and field evaluated at an isolated signalized intersection in Conroe, Texas. The predicted queue clearance times from the proposed method were observed to be in good agreement with the actual queue clearance times and slightly outperform the variable initial feature at this location.},

abstract = {Sampling roads in the local functional systems (i.e., local roads and minor collectors) for traffic counts is important for small urban and rural communities that need to perform air quality conformity analysis. Existing sampling methods based on traffic volume stratification were developed for roadways in the higher functional classes. These methods are not applicable for communities that do not have an adequate collection of existing traffic counts on the local functional systems. This paper describes an innovative sampling approach developed with a GIS for a small urban community (i.e., the Fairbanks North Star Borough in Alaska). Instead of sampling local roads based on traffic volumes, densities of built tax parcels surrounding the roads are used as the sampling stratum. The validity of the proposed approach is backed by a statistical analysis that shows a significant positive relationship between traffic volumes and parcel densities. Stratified sampling subgroups based on parcel density levels and the sample size for each density subgroup are then defined. Finally, sampling frames for all roads in the local functional classes are developed using the mid-points of all local road and minor collector GIS segments, where parcel density levels were calculated for stratified sampling. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. 2 Introduction Although local roads and minor collectors carry significantly less vehicle traffic than roadways in the higher functional classes such as freeways, arterials, and major collectors, an accurate estimation of Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) on local roads is important for the validity of a region's air quality conformity analysis for two primary reasons. First, the US Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) air quality modeling softwares (i.e., MOBILE and MOVES) require VMT by road types as input data and local roads is one of the road types modeled. Second, in a region with a significant portion of suburban/rural land developments, the mileage of local roads and minor collectors often dominates that of arterials and freeways. Thus, for a small urban and rural area with a significant coverage of local roads, the estimation and forecasting of vehicle activities on highways and streets is critical for air quality conformity analysis. Many small urban and rural areas face challenges in accounting for VMT on local roads. Such areas typically conduct traffic counts and estimate VMT as part of the Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) program of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). HPMS requires full-extent reporting on Federal-Aid highways in the National Highway System (NHS) and Non-National Highway System (non-NHS) that typically consists of functional classes from Interstate to Major Collectors (FHWA, 2010). However, for non Federal-Aid roadways in the classes of minor collectors and local roads, only summary reporting is required. As a result, local road traffic data available for regional air quality analysis are often limited in terms of quantity and details.},

abstract = {Bus rapid transit systems currently are being implemented in many cities around the world, especially in developing countries. However, providing priority to buses in these cities, where road infrastructure is already scarce, is problematic especially at the initial stages of the system when bus flows are low. For these low flows, dedicating a current car lane for bus use only can lead to underutilized lanes running through bottlenecks which could increase delay to general traffic (i.e. cars). In this case unconventional bus lanes can be used to eliminate bus delays while minimizing additional delays imparted to cars. The ideas entail deploying bus lanes intermittently (temporally and/or spatially) in the vicinity of bottlenecks; and to have these augment the traditional (i.e. static) bus lanes elsewhere throughout the network. A case study of unconventional bus lanes were done in Amman, Jordan. This paper describes the case study site and shows the need of unconventional bus lanes at this location. The site specific implementation and operation of unconventional bus lanes is described in detail. The results of this case study show that implementing unconventional bus lanes can decrease average car delays as compared to traditional, static bus lanes. These average delay savings can be as high as 12 minutes per car. It is also shown that deterministic models can yield results similar to microscopic simulations even though they do not incorporate lane changing behaviors. Therefore when field experiments are not possible, deterministic models can be used to easily determine the benefits of unconventional bus lanes over static bus lanes at their site of implementation.},

Wang, Daamen, Hoogendoorn, and Van Arem 2 ABSTRACT 1 Recent developments in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) lead to the concept of 2 Eco-driving support systems, which assist driver in controlling vehicles in a sustainable way to 3 reduce fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. In this contribution, we first put forward 4 a modeling framework for generic ADAS, and then design an algorithm for an Ecological 5 Adaptive Cruise Control (EcoACC) system under this framework. This system automatically 6 regulates the longitudinal behavior of equipped vehicles to minimize CO 2 emissions and to 7 maximize travel efficiency and driving comfort. To this end, the algorithm is recast into an 8 optimization based control problem, where the controlled vehicle tries to minimize its cost by 9 predicting the behavior of other vehicles. The optimal control problem is solved with a so-called 10 dynamic programming approach. 11 The proposed algorithm is applied in a single lane ring road to examine the impacts of the 12 EcoACC systems employing the Eco-driving strategy. Simulation results show that the Eco-13 driving strategy results in a smooth vehicle behavior compared to driving strategies that only 14 consider the travel efficiency (Efficient-driving strategy). At the macroscopic level, applying 15 Eco-driving strategy leads to lower speed and lower flow at free traffic conditions and higher 16 speed and higher flow at congested conditions compared to Efficient-driving strategy. From 17 environmental perspective, the Eco-driving strategy results in a lower spatial CO 2 emission rate. 18 However, the impacts of the EcoACC system on total CO 2 emissions is negative at congested 19 conditions, due to the higher flow it produces. 20 21 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The method used incorporates spatial data capturing principles and statistical 55 techniques to directly estimate AADT bypassing the sequential four-step method. Spatial data 56 (off-network characteristics such as demographic, socio-economic and land use characteristics) 57 captured over multiple network buffer bandwidths around a link were integrated using spatial 58 weights that decrease with an increase in the distance from the link. Off-network characteristics 59 along with on-network characteristics were used as independent variables. AADT from field 60 observations was used as the dependent variable. The applicability of Poisson and Negative 61 Binomial distribution to develop models in a Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) 62 framework was examined. A Chi-Square Statistic (CSS) test was conducted to validate the 63 developed models and assess their applicability. The results obtained indicate that models based 64 on Negative Binomial distribution are more suitable than models based on Poisson distribution to 65 integrate spatially varying data and estimate AADT. The maximum distance to capture and 66 integrate spatial data was observed to vary by road functional class.},

A strategic route choice refers to a look-ahead decision taking into 4 account future diversion possibilities at downstream nodes based on real-time 5 information not yet available at the time of decision-making. A mixed Logit model with 6 two latent classes, strategic and non-strategic route choice, is specified and estimated. 7 The estimates of the latent class probabilities show that a significant portion of route 8 choice decisions are strategic and subjects can learn to make more strategic route choice 9 as they have more experience with the decision scenarios. Non-parametric tests also show 10 that a parallel driving task does not affect strategic thinking ability, which might be 11 caused by the simplicity of the test network. The findings suggest that a realistic route 12 choice model with real-time information should consider both strategic and non-strategic 13 behavior, which potentially vary with the driver's experience. 14},

Start-7 ing with the original point-queue model introduced by Vickrey, we summarize some desirable 8 properties that a continuous-time point-queue model should possess, and show that one of these 9 properties—the nonnegativity of the queue lengths—is violated by Vickrey's original model. As 10 a remedy to this drawback of Vickrey's model and with the goal of extending it to a continuous-11 time setting, we introduce two continuous-time point-queue models and show that they satisfy 12 the properties we propose. Discretizations of the continuous-time models are discussed and con-13 struction of numerical trajectories is presented; convergence of such trajectories as the time step 14 approaches zero is established; regularity of a solution to the continuous-time problem is clarified, 15 and numerical results are presented. 16 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

While airfield delay and associated congestion cost is a growing concern, 51 accessibility and delays to vehicular traffic on roads leading to airport is another major problem. 52 Estimates of airport vehicle trip ends help study the profound effect of traffic generated by an 53 airport on road infrastructure near the airport. The most current volume of Institute of 54 Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual provides equations using data from 3 55 commercial airports to estimate airport vehicle trip ends. These estimates are based on the airline 56 operations or number of employees. Data from 3 airports is not a statistically significant sample 57 size. In addition, factors such as the number of passengers served by the airport, cargo in tons, 58 population of the region, presence of a large scale transit system, and the number of connecting 59 passengers may have an effect (either increasing or decreasing) on the number of vehicle trip 60 ends generated by airports. This paper presents an assessment of these variables and models 61 along with airline operations or the number of employees to estimate airport vehicle trip ends. 62 The effect of presence of subway or rail link on airport vehicle trip ends is also examined. Data 63 collected for 27 commercial airports in the United States is used to conduct statistical analyses 64 and assess the applicability of models based on statistical parameters to estimate airport vehicle 65 trips ends.},

Alyami Z., Kafi Farashah M., Tighe S. 2 ABSTRACT 40 41 Data collection is a critical aspect of any management system. Pavement Management Systems 42 (PMSs) rely on consistent and repeatable data collection. Traditionally, such data has been 43 collected through manual surveys, which are subjective, tedious, and time consuming. However, 44 over the past two decades, there has been ongoing development of automated data collection 45 technologies. The literature reveals a large number of services and distress data collection 46 technologies each with different features and levels of automation and complexity. These 47 technologies provide fast and improved methods to collect, process, and analyze data. The key is 48 to identify and collect the most useful, reliable, cost-effective information and use it to make 49 informed decisions for asset management. 50 The accuracy and reliability of automated data collection can significantly impact 51 pavement decisions at project and network levels; therefore, it is important that agencies ensure 52 that high quality pavement condition data is collected and processed. Ultimately, this can be 53 assured by carefully selecting the automated technology to be used for data collection. 54 This paper presents a framework for the evaluation and selection of the appropriate 55 automated data collection technologies for pavement management systems when there are 56 several factors. The framework is used to facilitate the selection of the most appropriate 57 automated data collection technologies by the aid of a Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) 58 computational approach. A case study of the province of Ontario is presented to illustrate how 59 the framework can be implemented.},

It can not only make full use of bicycle's 5 advantage in short-distance travel, but also make up for the shortcomings of rail transit. In 6 Shanghai, China, the rail-bicycle combined trips are increasing year by year. This will inevitably 7 make corresponding demands on the bicycle parking facilities planning and construction. 8 Therefore, a reasonable model to estimate the bicycle parking demand around the railway station 9 is necessary. In this paper, based on the bicycle parking on-site survey and questionnaire survey 10 around the rail transit stations, the researchers analyzed and summarized the transfer 11 characteristics of the metro-bicycle combined mode, and extracted the major influencing factors, 12 such as passengers entering the station in the morning rush hour, scale of residential area within 13 the bicycle attractive region, the number of bus routes in the visible range of the station. After 14 that, the researchers built the relationship between each factor and the amount of parking, and 15 developed a model by multiple regressions. In support of the trips characterized by 16 subway-bicycle chain, the model could be used to estimate the bicycle parking demand for the 17 urban transit system.},

abstract = {Vehicle classification data are used for numerous transportation applications. Most of the classification data come from permanent in-pavement sensors or temporary sensors mounted on the pavement. This study developed a lidar-based classification system that used data from sensors mounted in a side-fire configuration next to the road. The classification system first distinguished between vehicle returns and nonvehicle returns, and then clustered the vehicle returns into individual vehicles. An algorithm examined each vehicle cluster to check for any evidence of partial occlusion from another vehicle. Several measurements were taken from each nonoccluded cluster to classify the vehicle into one of six classes: motorcycle, passenger vehicle, passenger vehicle pulling a trailer, single-unit truck, single-unit truck pulling a trailer, and multiunit truck. The algorithm was evaluated at six locations under various traffic conditions. When compared with concurrent video ground truth data for more than 27,000 vehicles on a per vehicle basis, 11{\%} of the vehicles were suspected of being partially occluded. The algorithm correctly classified more than 99.5{\%} of the remaining nonoccluded vehicles. This research uncovered emerging challenges that likely applied to most classification systems: differentiating commuter cars from motorcycles. Occlusions were inevitable in this proof of concept study because the lidar sensors were mounted roughly 6 ft above the road, well below the tops of many vehicles. Ultimately a combination of a higher vantage point and shape information will greatly reduce the effects of occlusions.},

abstract = {In most Chinese cities, electric bikes and electrically-assisted bicycles, i.e., E-bikes, have drastically increased in recent years and currently comprise the largest proportion of the non-motorized traffic prevailing at signalized intersections. Therefore, proper treatment of E-bikes has become a vitally important issue in improving operational efficiency and safety performance of signalized intersections. However, fundamental knowledge on the unique operating characteristics and driver behavior of E-bikes under various conditions is rather insufficient so far. This study aims at statistically analyzing the critical behavioral parameters of E-bike drivers, and empirically modeling their start-up behavior at the green onset following a 3-second of red-and-yellow signal and pass/stop decision behavior at the yellow onset following a 3-second of flashing green. Distribution types and parameters of desired speed, start-up time, acceleration rate, perception-reaction time, and deceleration rate were firstly investigated by the use of highly accurate trajectory data. Then, a temporal-spatial model was developed to interpret the start-up curve and three binary logistic regression models were built to predict the pass/stop decisions respectively for different driver groups. Conclusions supported that the start-up curve of E-bikes could be well described by a quadratic function and the red-and-yellow signal significantly induced hurry-start. In addition, potential time to stop-line at the decision point was found to be the dominant independent factor to explain the pass/stop decision of E-bike drivers, and the flashing green signal seemed to enlarge the option zone, bring the indecision zone earlier, and result in more aggressive pass.},

Using a passenger intercept survey of both curbside and established carriers, such as Greyhound, I address two basic questions about this new mode: Who uses curbside buses? And what is the effect of curbside buses on competing modes? The findings indicate that curbside buses appear to be attracting different passengers than established carriers. After using curbside buses, passengers are less likely to use Amtrak for intercity trips, but the buses have no effect on their likelihood to drive.},

But these arterial road VMS 8 only provide information about expressway conditions and do not provide information about local 9 streets. This paper explores drivers' route choice response to the arterial road VMS that displays travel 10 time of both expressway and local streets in the context of China. A stated preference (SP) 11 questionnaire survey was conducted to collect behavioral data. Using SP data, a panel binary Logit 12 model is estimated to identify factors that influence drivers' route choice behavior in response to 13 arterial road VMS. The panel model is intended to account for the correlation between repeated choices 14 by the same individual in the SP survey. The modeling results show that the driver decision on route 15 choice between expressway and local streets can be significantly influenced by arterial road VMS. 16 Drivers with less driving experience are less likely to choose the local street; larger travel time savings 17 after using the local street will increase the probability of choosing the local street; Drivers are more 18 likely to choose the local street if expressway delay is caused by accident; Drivers who do not use 19 expressway frequently are more likely to choose the local street; Male drivers are less sensitive to 20 expressway delay; Number of traffic lights on the local street decreases the likelihood that drivers 21 choose the local street; Male drivers and employer-provided car drivers are less sensitive to number of 22 traffic lights on the local street; Drivers with driving experience more than 10 years and taxi drivers are 23 more sensitive to number of traffic lights on the local street.

It generates a 3 disproportionate share of U.S. and Canadian economic activity and trade relative to its size and is home to 4 a significant share of the two countries' population. 5 The region's multimodal freight transportation system is essential to the economy of the region 6 and beyond. The complexity of the GLSLB freight transportation system cannot be overstated. It spans all 7 transportation modes, several jurisdictions, and handles a range of commodities, each with different 8 transportation requirements. 9 The authors are part of a team undertaking a study under the Transportation Research Board's 10 National Cooperative Freight Research Program (NCFRP) to describe the current multimodal freight 11 transportation system within the GLSLB. This paper summarizes some of the key findings of this work. It 12 explores the characteristics of this regional freight transportation system and its economic importance. 13 This paper also explores the barriers and constraints to the effective performance of this system and the 14 opportunities to improve it, particularly through the development of an effective model for future 15 research, planning and policy development.},

Furthermore, pairwise comparison of the distributions at different 12 service times was conducted to investigate the pavement deterioration pattern. Finally, 13 two-sample t-tests were performed to compare the performance of warranty and non-14 warranty pavements at the same service times respectively. The finding of the study 15 shows that the deterioration of warranty pavements is slower than non-warranty 16 pavements and the performance of warranty pavements is significantly better than non-17 warranty pavements regardless of service time.

abstract = {In developing countries, the real contribution of paratransit becomes significant due to the limitation of government capacity on the public transport system and also because it supports much-needed mobility, especially for the poor. This paper discusses fare trips of several types of taxi-like paratransit services such as three wheeler, motorcycle taxi and pedicab in Jakarta city and surrounding areas. In their daily operation, taxi-like services have no fixed route and schedule. Trip fares were offered by drivers and negotiated with passengers and there may be discrimination of fares on certain groups of users. Based on the reveal preference survey distributed to drivers, the authors analyze trip fares of taxi-like paratransit services. A multilevel analysis is applied to examine the variation of fares and to explore the components which effect the trip fares of each paratransit type, especially focusing on driver attributes, passengers attributes, and temporal and spatial variations of trips. It is confirmed that driver attributes such as driver age, working experience, and education level play a significant role in determining fares. The fare per kilometer travelled reduces when the travel distance increases. It is also found that a fare discrimination regime may exist. This study also finds that passengers in the city center of Jakarta need to pay more per kilometer travelled, compared to those who ride taxi-like paratransit services in suburban areas. In the case of non-motorized paratransit, the number of passengers per trip increases the price because of the direct effect on the human energy required to run the service.},

abstract = {Studies of road safety call attention to the problems of pedestrian and bicyclist safety, but few compare the relative risk of different travel modes and even fewer do so in a way that allows for geographic and demographic comparisons.  The central questions addressed in this paper are: what travel modes are safest, where, and for which travelers?  Focusing on cities and counties in the San Francisco Bay Area, the study used multiple indicators of safety for different road users to create a multi-dimensional picture of regional and local traffic risk for the period 1995-2008.  The study found that whereas motor vehicle occupants account for the highest share of fatalities in the region, pedestrians and bicyclists have the highest risk relative to their mobility.  This is true for every county in the region.  In addition, pedestrian and bicyclist safety is not just a problem on local roads: on average, 17{\%} of pedestrian fatalities in the region occur on Interstate and US highways and 25{\%} of bicyclist fatalities occur on state and county roads.  Consistent with other research, older travelers and male travelers have relatively higher traffic fatality rates per trip across modes than female travelers.  Furthermore, African American and Hispanic travelers have an overall traffic fatality rate per person-trip that is four times higher than that of white travelers.  For much of the San Francisco Bay Area where motor vehicle occupant fatality rates are relatively low, the most effective strategy for improving traffic safety is to reduce safety disparities.},

abstract = {In times of climate change and scarce resources, it is essential to reduce emissions and to use fuel as economically as possible. The transportation sector alone accounts for 44{\%} of the energy use in New Zealand, with only about one-quarter of that amount being used by the transportation industry for transporting goods. Therefore, an attractive public transport service and prudent use of its vehicles can help make travel more economical, thus saving resources and reducing carbon dioxide emissions. How to make public bus services more attractive is demonstrated with two simultaneous objectives: minimizing the expected passenger waiting time and minimizing the discrepancy from a desired occupancy level on the vehicles. The first objective is intended to improve the service and attract more users, and the second objective is intended to ensure economical operation. A network-based procedure is used to create timetables with multiple vehicle types to solve this multiobjective problem. The method is applied to a case study in Auckland, New Zealand, and results in a savings of more than 43{\%} of passenger waiting time while attaining an acceptable passenger load on all vehicles.},

abstract = {1 This paper discusses the application of gravity model in freight modeling work on both short 2 haul and long haul trips. A commodity-based gravity model was developed to assess the 3 distribution of freight using long haul trucks in southeastern Virginia. Although gravity models 4 have been extensively used in transportation studies, less study has been accomplished 5 concerning special characteristics in freight transportation, such as the definition of friction 6 factor, and the long haul and short haul freight trips. This paper studies such problems and the 7 results provide valuable insight into freight distribution modeling. A new calibration method 8 using genetic algorithm is used and different commodities are modeled and their impacts on the 9 accuracy of gravity model are studied. Both travel time and travel distance were tested to 10 generate the impedance for friction factors, showing that for commodity-based long haul models, 11 travel times are more appropriate for friction factor calculations. In addition, study result shows 12 that Gamma function is more suitable than exponential function for the friction factor calculation. 13 Extensive analysis on the causes of variation between observed values and the gravity model 14 outputs is provided. The analyses and conclusions may help modelers better understand 15 characteristics specific to freight transportation and can promote model constructions with 16 greater accuracy and efficiency. 17},

This study endeavours to incorporate the heterogeneous outputs 3 and operating environment factors into the cost efficiency measurement framework by 4 stochastic cost frontier method. In addition, it introduces four new operating environment 5 factors at the microscopic level. The purpose is to impartially measure the cost efficiency of 6 bus routes, so as to provide a useful practical tool with regard to the establishment of subsidy 7 mechanism for the regulators. An empirical analysis based on 39 routes operated in Jiangyin 8 City, China has been presented. The principal finding is that, generally, the increase in vehicle 9 kilometers, fixed inputs, and fuel price, results in higher total operating costs of bus routes. 10 Specially, vehicle kilometers have a bigger impact on total operating costs than other 11 parameters. Additionally, route length, the percentage of priority lanes, and average pure 12 operating speed are favorable for the improvement of cost efficiency. The average intersection 13 density, average bus stop density, and average dwell time per bus stop are unfavorable for the 14 improvement of cost efficiency. Finally, the measurement of the cost efficiency enables to 15 identify the difference between the actual total operating costs and efficient total operating 16 costs at the bus routes level. The results could substantially support the regulators in 17 improving bus service design, especially establishing of an effective subsidy mechanism 18 based on efficient total operating costs.},

abstract = {Intercity passenger transportation is a time- and energy-intensive activity. Despite a growing social consciousness of "green" alternatives, travelers continue to choose routes and modes primarily on the basis of travel time and cost. Although long-distance trips of more than 500 mi (800 km) are dominated by air travel, short- and medium-haul trips compete with surface modes when total travel time and cost are compared. Because of hub-and-spoke air transport networks, short-haul air travel is bundled with long-haul itineraries. At congested hubs, passengers can experience lengthy transfer times, which can provide an opportunity for competitive mode substitution. This paper focuses on the travel time trade-offs between air and surface modes and the implications for short-haul air trip substitutability through an analysis of 17 short-haul markets transferring through O'Hare International Airport, Chicago, Illinois. The results suggest that when transfer times are considered, mode substitutability is not directly associated with distance and that there are competitive opportunities for ground modes that may offer cost, energy, and environmental benefits.},

In this paper, we examine 3 parking demand measures at other campuses, with a focus on transport service provision for students and 4 employees. Lessons for Beirut are drawn, namely in terms of the feasibility of implementing transit 5 incentives amidst an unorganized, informal public transport sector; the impact of increasing parking 6 supply; and the challenge of influencing mode choice in a high-income campus population. Relevant 7 findings for AUB are highlighted: public transport services to campus don't always stem from existing 8 public transport services; some campuses have successfully initiated their own mass transport systems; 9 designing a mass transport system catered to the target population can be extremely effective; and 10 ridership on mass transport systems is highly correlated with driving disincentives such as limited, priced 11 parking. Accordingly, we propose that AUB commuters would best utilize a mass transport system which 12 combines the professionalism and comfort of private taxis with the vehicle occupancy and cost of shared 13 taxis; parking practices are also recommended. Other major institutions in the AUB neighborhood are 14 surveyed and found to be facing parking constraints and show interest in a collaborative mass transport 15 service for their members. Such community-organized public transport arrangements can be a paradigm 16 for expanding ridership in cities like Beirut where top-down transport reform is lacking, public transport 17 is limited to captive riders, and cities are struggling to manage increasing driving trends and their 18 externalities. 19 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The generation of this information requires 3 predictions on transit performance based on instantaneous data collection and processing. The 4 disseminated information affects travellers' perceptions of transit conditions and subsequently 5 their travel decisions. The analysis of these processes requires dynamic modelling of traffic 6 conditions, transit operations and travellers' decisions. This paper provides a modelling 7 framework for evaluating the impacts of RTI. The model is implemented in BusMezzo, a 8 transit and traffic simulation model. A multi-agent approach is used for emulating the 9 dynamic loading of travellers and their interaction with the transit system through successive 10 travel decisions. A network-wide evaluation of the impacts of various RTI systems is 11 conducted for the rapid transit network in Stockholm, Sweden. The analysis suggests that 12 providing network-level information through personal mobile devices can yield considerable 13 time savings and substantially different time-dependent passenger loads.},

Two hypotheses were tested by analyzing the collected data: 4 installation of pedestrian countdown timers increase walking speeds of pedestrians in the 5 crosswalk and installation of pedestrian countdown timers increase pedestrians' compliance 6 at the intersection (compliance defined as a reduction in the number of pedestrians in the 7 cross walk during the Don't Walk phase of the timers). 8 After controlling for a variety of factors that impact pedestrian behavior, results 9 showed that installation of pedestrian countdown timers resulted in increased pedestrian 10 walking speeds in the crosswalk and increased pedestrian compliance at the intersection. This 11 study also illustrates the possibility of drawing incorrect conclusions if factors besides 12 installation of pedestrian countdown timers are not explicitly taken into consideration. Some 13 of these factors include time of day, presence of vehicles on the street that pedestrians are 14 crossing, and right-turning traffic on to the street that pedestrians are crossing.},

To that effect, the work activity process model, which includes six decision steps, has been investigated. Each decision step is evaluated during the prediction of the individuals' schedules. There are specific decision steps that affect the execution pattern of the work activity process model. So, the comportment of execution in the process model contains activation dependency. This branches the execution and evaluation of each agent under examination. Sequence Alignment Methods (SAM) can be used to evaluate how similar/ dissimilar the predicted and observed decision sequences are on an agent level. The original Chi-squared Automatic Interaction Detector decision trees at each decision step utilized in ALBATROSS are compared with other well known induction methods chosen to appraise the purpose of the analyses. The models are validated at four levels: the classifier or decision step level whereby confusion matrix statistics are used; The work activity trips Origin–Destination matrix level; the time of day work activity start time level, using a correlation coefficient; and the process model level, using SAM. The results of validation on the proposed process model level show conformity to all validation levels. In addition, the results provide additional information in better understanding the process model's behavior. Hence, introducing a new level of validation incur new knowledge and assess the predictive performance of rule-based activity-based models.

This study investigated the factors that contribute to bicyclists' perception of comfort on physically separated bicycle paths and quantified their impacts. A survey was conducted on 29 physically separated bicycle paths in the metropolitan area of Nanjing, China. A factor analysis and an ordered probit model were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the mean perception of comfort was significantly different between age groups, but not significantly different between gender groups and between users of electric bicycles and conventional bicycles. The model performance indicated that the ordered probit model with factor analysis addressed the correlation between independent variables and outperformed the ordered probit model without factor analysis. The model estimates showed that bicyclists' perception of comfort on physically separated bicycle paths was significantly influenced by physical environmental factors, including the width of the bicycle pathway, the width of the shoulder, the presence of grade, the presence of a bus stop, the surrounding land use, and the flow rate of electric and conventional bicycles. The findings yielded insights into bicyclists' psychological perception of comfort on physically separated bicycle paths. This research can help inform the design and planning of these facilities.},

abstract = {Application of dynamic maximum speed limits may lead to positive effects for the environment, safety, and traffic flows. However, the efficacy of this dynamic traffic management measure depends largely on the behavior of drivers (i.e., compliance). In this paper, it is conjectured that compliance does not depend solely on attitudes of drivers but also depends on drivers' perceptions of the dynamic maximum speed limit signs and mental workload. It is assumed that characteristics of the dynamic maximum speed limit signs influence the perceptions of drivers as well as their mental workload. It is, however, not yet clear to what extent characteristics of the signs influence perception, mental workload, and compliance of drivers. Therefore, two driving simulator experiments were performed to investigate the influence of four factors on drivers' perception, mental workload, and compliance. The factors studied were the signs' content, implementation, location, and frequency. From the results, it followed that different effects of these factors could be observed. For example, it was observed that the frequency with which dynamic maximum speed limit signs were provided to the drivers had a significant influence on perception and compliance, although a significant effect on mental workload could not be established. The paper concludes with a discussion of results and recommendations for future research. Keywords: dynamic maximum speed limits, behavior, perception, mental workload, compliance.

This need for detail has in turn created a need for 4 both a deeper understanding and theoretical basis for behavior, and the incorporation of data 5 collection and analysis methods to handle more behavioral detail. Because of this, the use of 6 qualitative and mixed method approaches in travel behavior has received increased attention over 7 the last few decades. In this paper, quantitative and qualitative methodologies are discussed and 8 applied to data collected in Santa Barbara, California, measuring peoples' attitudes about places 9 (sense of place). Both quantitative and qualitative methods are applied using first a factor 10 analysis and complementing this with a qualitative analysis of text from an open-ended question. 11 The findings of these analyses are compared and incorporated to contribute to a greater 12 understanding of both sense of place and behavior. Theoretical developments and implications 13 for future research are discussed in light of analysis findings. 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The West LRT line is a major construction affecting daily commute around an urbanized area. The construction lasts three years and during this time roads and lane closures take place in the vicinity of the construction zones. Data on commuters' route making decisions were obtained by conducting a survey on a sample of users of the main affected roads. Two discrete choice models were calibrated for this purpose. The first model examines commuters' response to traffic information disseminated through Newsletters, and the second model investigates the reason behind the low response rate of commuters. In these models the effects of socio-economic characteristics, congestion level, trip characteristics, weather conditions, frequency of driving in the vicinity of the LRT construction zone, familiarity with alternative routes, route characteristics and access to other sources of traffic alerts are examined. Although 13{\%} of commuters are likely to make no changes in their routes and trips, 46{\%} of the respondents stated that they would make pronounced changes in trip planning by either changing modes, departure time or destination; 41{\%} stated to change their route. The attitude and perception towards the quality of information provided by the Newsletters were found to be critical contributing factors affecting the travelers' responses to these systems. Respondents stated that the perceived unreliability of Newsletter information and the expected similarity in travel time on alternate route are major reasons behind the low compliance rate.},

abstract = {This paper presents a performance estimation of a dynamic lane operation for merging sections 3 of an urban expressway network. Dynamic lane operation is not a new traffic management 4 technique and has already been implemented in some countries to mitigate congestion and 5 improve traffic capacity. However, it is doubtful whether its performance is maximized when the 6 operation is applied to a merging section of an urban expressway network, which is generally 7 more complicated and has a relatively higher junction density than freeway or highway networks, 8 because locally improved traffic performance in a merging section might not always guarantee 9 an improvement in the entire network. Initially, in this paper, we suggest one dynamic lane 10 operation method that utilizes an area traffic flow control concept that is originally based on the 11 macroscopic fundamental diagram concept to take into account the improvement of the traffic 12 performance in the entire network. Next, using network simulation, the performance of using this 13 method is estimated and compared with the simulation results using another method that 14 considers the traffic condition at only subject local sites. Finally, the simulations and 15 comparisons are carried out again for a situation in which a traffic incident has occurred to 16 estimate the potential performance of the dynamic lane operation. All analyses are conducted as 17 a case study for the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway, which is one of the most complicated and 18 congested urban expressway networks in the world, having one complete inner circular route, 19 another incomplete outer circular route, and more than 10 radial routes.},

Chapman Lahti and Miranda-Moreno 2 33 ABSTRACT 34 This study examines the impact of weather on pedestrian activity, as well as the temporal trends 35 related to pedestrian trips in the city of Montreal, Canada. In particular, this study investigates the 36 impact of extreme weather conditions during the winter season, and the difference in pedestrian 37 trends between winter and other seasons. Five pedestrian counters were installed throughout the city 38 of Montreal in zones which were either mainly commercial-service, or else mixed residential-39 commercial. The land-use mix surrounding the counter was taken into consideration in the 40 investigation. The analysis was carried out separately over the months of April – November and 41 December – March, and as expected, the impact of different weather variables over different seasons 42 was very significant. During the warmer months (April – November) high amounts of precipitation 43 (over 4.5 mm in an hour) caused the largest decrease on pedestrian trips, and temperatures between 44 20°C and 25°C caused the largest increase. During the winter, temperature, and precipitation affected 45 the volume of pedestrian trips the most. The changes in volumes based on weekday and weekend 46 were also quite different. In the winter months, pedestrian flows were much more sensitive to adverse 47 weather during the weekend than the workweek. However, in the temperate months, the differences 48 between weekday and weekend were less important. Pedestrian activity was also found to decrease 49 due to a lag effect of earlier precipitation. Overall, volumes of pedestrians decrease slightly in the 50 winter compared with the more temperate months; however, morning and afternoon peak commuting 51 periods remain the same regardless of season. Many different factors were examined in this study 52 such as time of day, weekend / weekday, and the built environment surrounding each counter; 53 however there are still other factors which affect pedestrian trends which should be explored further. 54 55},

abstract = {Travel demand and behavior on weekends have been significantly changed over the past decade due to income growth and spread of the 5-day workweek in Korea. The increased weekend trips for shopping and leisure activities have exacerbated traffic congestion on major highways or principal arterial roads from Friday afternoon through Sunday. Therefore, it is necessary to consider travel demand forecasts and transport policies for weekend trips by identifying individuals' travel behavior on weekend. Previous research efforts focus on exploring characteristics of weekend travel by comparing those between weekdays and weekends, mostly in a few cities in North America. As an empirical study in a developing country, this study is to explore characteristics of travel behavior on weekends through descriptive analyses and develop Tobit models for trip frequencies to identify key factors that significantly affect weekend travel, using Seoul Metropolitan trip-diary survey data in 2006. The model results show that weekend trips appear differently from weekdays by household or individual characteristics. For example, age, residence area, and type of residence significantly affect the number of daily trips, regardless of type of day, whereas gender, occupation, income, and presence of a vehicle in a household show different impacts on trips between weekday and weekends.},

abstract = {This paper examines the rain and temperature ranges that characterize travel by different modes. Weather conditions significantly impact travel and activity decisions, especially with respect to decisions regarding active transportation and activities that expose travelers directly to the environment, such as outdoor recreational activities. Travelers' decisions are likely motivated by prevailing and anticipated weather conditions, avoiding heavy rainfall, uncomfortable temperatures or humidity levels. Furthermore, travelers may perceive comfort ranges or zones with respect to the weather, leading to travel and activity within specific ranges that vary across travelers according to their personal and trip attributes and other related decisions. This paper investigates these boundaries and comfort ranges for weather in relation to travel. The concept of weather comfort ranges for travel is first illustrated and characterized by considering the empirical distribution of trips across ranges of rainfall and temperature, with respect to active transport modes and social/recreational trips. Additionally, this paper presents one possible approach to operationalizing the concept of comfortable weather ranges and thresholds through estimating hazard functions for different weather dimensions. The hazard function relates traveler attributes and trip characteristics to the likelihood or probability of observing trip-making beyond a specific weather level, such as temperature or rainfall level. These results suggest that travelers perceive comfort zones or ranges with respect to travel that vary by mode, trip attributes and personal attributes. Active mode trips appear more sensitive to rainfall and temperature, relative to auto trips. Additionally, home-based work trips seem the least concerned with weather, occurring over a wider range relative to home-based social/recreational trips. Overall, these models and estimation results illustrate and provide insight into rain and temperature conditions and boundaries for travel in relation to other traveler attributes and trip-making decisions.},

We conducted Spearman correlation analysis for the transportation and communications industries (each disaggregated into manufacturing and utilities sectors as well as overall), with respect to the direct input coefficients and the total coefficients calculated from the I-O data during the 1995-2005 timeframe. Then, the correlation results were interpreted and compared with those of the developed countries (France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, the U.K., and the U.S.). Our results show that for the direct inputs to other industries, the relationship between transportation and communications can be either complementarity or substitution. However, the complementarity relationship is more dominant in Asia than in Europe and the U.S. For the industry outputs required for the final demand, the complementarity relationship between the two industries appears to be very strong in most of the countries.},

The large 4 amount of individual probe measurements allows the study of phenomena previously 5 unobservable with conventional sensing technologies, and the design of novel traffic 6 monitoring and control strategies. However, challenges inherent to the use of speed and 7 location data arise. One of the main challenges of measurements collected from individual 8 vehicles lies in their ability to provide relevant information on the macroscopic properties 9 of traffic flow. According to the classical triangular fundamental diagram, the relation 10 between speed and flow can be inversed in the congestion phase but not in the 11 uncongested phase. In the latter, the flow of vehicles cannot be retrieved from the speed of 12 vehicles, assumed to be constant. This article proposes to investigate the nature of the 13 relationship between flow and speed from joint measurements from radar data. Two 14 different regression methods are proposed in this article to estimate traffic flow based on 15 individual speed measurements: regression of flow on speed and regression of flow on 16 speed variance. The respective performance of these two methods during specific traffic 17 periods is assessed, and recommendations on their relative strengths are provided.

Meanwhile, real-time information is and will be increasingly available to 4 travelers so they can adapt to actual traffic conditions and reduce the negative effects of 5 uncertainties. As uncertain disruptions account for a significant portion of the total traffic delays, 6 it is imperative to incorporate them in a traffic prediction model. This paper presents the results 7 of interactive route choice experiments, where subjects made 120 " days " of repeated route 8 choices in a hypothetical, competitive network subjected to random capacity reductions. Two 9 scenarios are studied, one with real-time information regarding a probable incident and the other 10 without. Graphic analysis and non-parametric statistical tests are conducted to compare the two 11 scenarios. Results show that real-time information provides a positive effect on increasing the 12 network efficiency and reliability. A reinforcement learning model is developed to capture 13 subjects' route choice characteristics in the information case. Two parameters, a scale factor and 14 discounting rate of previous experience, are estimated from the data by minimizing the deviation 15 of the predicted route flows from the observed ones on a " day-to-day " basis with a combination 16 of brute force enumeration and a subsequent stochastic approximation method suitable for 17 optimization problems with noises. The learning model accurately captures the " day-to-day " 18 traffic flow evolutions and is a potential alternative and/or complement to an equilibrium traffic 19 assignment model for assessing the impacts of a traveler information system as an integral part 20 of an intelligent transport system.},

The analysis tool then analyzes the log 15 files for each day and produces user-friendly reports in hourly average and cycle-based formats. 16 The measures of effectiveness (MOEs) produced by the tool include: signal data (e.g., phase 17 time, phase failures, queue clearance time), pedestrian data (e.g., pedestrian calls per hour and 18 average time to service pedestrian), and preempt data (e.g., the type of preempt, time of preempt, 19 and the duration of preempt). The analyst can install the tool in the signal cabinet and log the 20 data for subsequent evaluation and troubleshooting in the back office. The tool was deployed and 21 field evaluated at two signalized intersections in Texas. The results generated from the tool were 22 found to be in good agreement with our observation at the test sites 23 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Coordinating 3 transportation can lower administrative costs, avoid duplication of services, increase 4 productivity, improve cost effectiveness, and enhance mobility in rural communities. In Texas, 5 rural transit districts have gained from coordinating general public transportation with other 6 transportation programs including Area Agency on Aging, Head Start, Elderly Persons and 7 Persons with Disabilities, Job Access Reverse Commute, New Freedom, and welfare-to-work 8 programs. In 2009, 21 of the 39 rural transit districts in Texas received Medicaid non-9 emergency medical transportation (NEMT) funds under the Texas Medical Transportation 10 Program (MTP) and is the largest program coordinated by Texas rural transit districts. 11 Although coordination of transportation service exists in rural Texas communities, 12 allocation of transportation services and costs often do not reflect the differences in resources 13 used between service types. Efforts to coordinate or continue coordination may be hindered by 14 not equitably allocating costs. This study builds on TCRP Report 144, Sharing the Costs of 15 Human Services Transportation in which a model is provided for sharing costs of human services 16 transportation. In the approach provided in this paper, cost allocation is based on the percent of 17 passenger miles, passenger hours, and administrative labor by trip type to take into account the 18 average trip lengths and average trip times that may differ across trip types served. The 19 resource-based cost allocation was applied to five rural transit district case studies. A 20 comparison of a resource-based cost allocation and a boardings-based cost allocation is also 21 provided. 22 23 INTRODUCTION 24 Providing coordinated transportation in rural communities can maximize the use of 25 resources to provide cost effective transportation throughout the community. Rural communities 26 receive transportation funding from a variety of sources including federal, state, and local 27 governments, health and human service agencies, and other public and private entities. Texas 28 rural transit districts serve as coordinators of service, pooling resources and funding to provide 29 transportation across a variety of programs. Coordinating transportation can lower 30 administrative costs, avoid duplication of services, increase productivity, improve cost 31 effectiveness, and enhance mobility in rural communities. Without coordination of service, 32 transit service can be disjointed, resulting in a " proliferation of small organizations that provide 33 transportation{\ldots}each owning a few vehicles that can be used only for their agency's own 34 designated clients and purposes " (Burkhardt, Nelson, Murray, {\&} Koffman, 2004). In Texas, 35 rural transit districts have gained from coordinating general public transportation with other 36 transportation programs including Area Agency on Aging, Head Start, Elderly Persons and 37 Persons with Disabilities, Job Access Reverse Commute, New Freedom, and welfare-to-work 38 programs. Rural transit districts recognize the need for funding from many sources to remain 39 sustainable. Medicaid is often the largest funder of transportation in regions with Medicaid non-40 emergency medical transportation (NEMT) expenditures, representing almost 20 percent of the 41 entire federal transit budget (Rosenbaum, Lopez, Morris, {\&} Simon, 2009, p. 1). In rural areas, 42 NEMT funds are often greater than public transit funds (Hosen {\&} Fetting, 2006, p. 1). 43 In Texas, 21 of the 39 rural transit districts in 2009 provided non-emergency medical 44 transportation under the Texas Medical Transportation Program (MTP).

More branch lines stretched from peripheral 3 areas connect with or even converge into corridors and form multiple transfer stations. Because 4 reconstructing facilities and improving network structures are not applicable to gradual growth and feature 5 changes of demands, coordinating the frequencies of bus lines will be an effective work to keep transport 6 efficiency and service quality. Not only great corridor's inner transport demands but also complex transfer 7 demands should be met through the coordination procedure, still with the consideration of corridors' 8 capacity constraints and vehicle capacity constraints. 9 In this paper, a mixed integer-nonlinear programming model is developed to optimize the frequencies of 10 the corridor bus lines, assuming a known trip matrix. The method was applied to Renmin corridor in 11 Jiangyin City of China. In the case, the coordinated frequency scheme improved the Transportation 12 Efficiency Factor of the corridor by 5{\%} while keeping a smooth running order through adjusting the 13 capability saturation of sections and stations. The average waiting time was not only optimized on theory, 14 but also be reduced in practice for the risks of unsuccessful boarding were controlled. In addition, an 15 analysis was done to judge the valid scope of the frequency scheme when non-inner demands fluctuated 16 and found until the non-inner demands taken by branch lines increased by 25{\%} the frequency scheme 17 would continue be applied. 18 KEY WORDS},

abstract = {This paper examines the impact of weather on utilitarian bicycle facilities in four North American cities, as well as on recreational bicycle facilities in Quebec, Canada. A unique hourly bicycle-count dataset is used from Montreal, Ottawa, Vancouver, Portland, and several towns and cities along the " Route Verte " in Quebec. Particular attention is given to the impact of weather on weekdays vs. the weekend and lagged effects of precipitation. Among the main findings, temperature and humidity were found to be positively and negatively correlated with cycling, respectively, and the effects of both were in some instances observed to be non-linear. Rain can have a strong negative impact on cycling that increases in magnitude with rain intensity. In addition, lagged effects of rain were confirmed, such as rain the previous three hours, rain in the morning only, and rain in the afternoon only. In general, utilitarian facilities behave uniformly across cities, though the sensitivity to weather conditions can vary greatly; Montreal and Portland appear to be least sensitive to weather, with Ottawa appearing most sensitive and Vancouver in the middle. Furthermore, bicycle facilities are more sensitive to weather on weekends than on weekdays and on recreational facilities are more sensitive than utilitarian facilities. Finally, dew point depression, which can be used to improve model fit if humidity and temperature are strongly correlated, has a positive effect on cycling.},

GFOAMS uses a GIS map-driven interface composed of three main modules: inventory, documents, and images, interacting with a multilayer data structure containing the information for junction boxes, conduit runs, and cables for thirteen fiber optic systems across the city that connect police departments, fire departments, municipal courts, health administration, building, public transportation facilities, libraries and others. GFOAMS has been used for planning daily operations, managing leasable fiber optics conduits, and developing new fiber optics subsystems to the existing networks; saving time and money for the City of El Paso. The GFOAMS project received an Engineering Award from the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) for its benefits to public health, safety, and welfare while connecting professional practice and education during its development.. Having a broad and well managed fiber optics system in El Paso has become a priority to the municipality as it will enhance the reaction to public safety hazards and immediate responses to any security breach due to its strategic location on the border with Mexico.},

abstract = {2 During an emergency evacuation, punctual pick up service is always critical for the evacuees who are transit 3 dependent. Transit signal priority (TSP) can improve transit performance quality by prioritizing an approaching 4 transit vehicle at a signalized intersection. With the introduction of Connected Vehicle, which is a wireless 5 communication technology used to transfer data among vehicles and infrastructures, a TSP system can obtain more 6 accurate traffic data and react to an approaching transit vehicle over a wider area. This paper proposes an adaptive 7 TSP system to facilitate transit-based emergency evacuations on the basis of the Connected Vehicle. 8 This paper is the first to explore the impacts of TSP with coordination of Connected Vehicle on transit-9 based evacuations. The objective of this study is to examine the TSP strategies in coordination with Connected 10 Vehicle and therefore to evaluate its impacts on transit-based emergency evacuation. A TSP model, which includes 11 bus travel time prediction and traffic signal optimization, was developed to find the optimum TSP strategy. A case 12 study based on the Hurricane Gustav evacuation in Gulfport was investigated. CORSIM served as a developmental 13 environment as well as a test bed for evaluating the proposed TSP system. CORSIM RTE (Run Time Extension) 14 was developed to embed the optimization model and simulate the Connected Vehicle functions. The results show 15 that Connected Vehicle can substantially reduce the bus travel time by 12.8{\%} without compromising general traffic. 16 Even when the traffic volume is increased by 25{\%}, the network-wide average vehicle delay will only increase 3.8{\%} 17 compared with the no-TSP scenario, which is still manageable.},

abstract = {Travel demand modeling is a key tool in transportation planning, but its practice at metropolitan planning organizations has been widely criticized as resistant to innovation. This resistance is a major concern for transportation planners who would like to investigate policy options, such as value pricing and smart growth, which are poorly considered with traditional methods. Advanced modeling methodologies are better suited for such policy analysis, but, to date, attempts to systematically encourage such practices have not been successful. An emerging exception to this pattern is the experience of the state of California, whose pioneering climate change legislation has launched a multipronged challenge to the modeling status quo. This paper examines the enabling legislation, the subsequent guidance, and the implementation experience of the state's eighteen MPOs to understand the combination of elements that are advancing modeling practice. The findings suggest that modeling can be effectively advanced when such innovations are seen as necessary for fulfilling a policy mandate. California identified travel demand modeling as essential for estimating greenhouse gas reductions of proposed land use and transportation policies. This recognition led to formal steps to overhaul and extend state modeling guidelines, dedicate funding for model development, daylight existing modeling practices, and establish a path towards implementing innovation. These steps have cultivated informal linkages among stakeholders which have proven critical to altering existing modeling practice. While the California experiment remains on-going, the early experience provides critical lessons for other regions seeking to use legislation to advance the practice of travel demand modeling.},

abstract = {Artificial markets for mobility credits have been proposed as an alternative to conventional congestion pricing schemes. This paper examines the effects of transaction costs on two types of markets: an auction market and a negotiated market. In an auction market, users purchase all of the needed mobility credits through a competitive bidding process. In a negotiated market, the users initially receive certain amount of mobility credits from the government and trade with each other through negotiation to fulfill their needs. We assume that a brokerage service is built in both markets to facilitate transactions and accordingly, the users have to pay a commission fee proportional to the value of trade. The users are also given the option to purchase credits from the government if for some reasons they cannot use or wish to avoid the markets. Our analyses suggest that the auction market can achieve the desired equilibrium allocation of mobility credits as long as the government sets its price properly and the unit transaction cost is lower than the price that the market would reach in absence of transaction costs. However, in the negotiated market, transaction costs could divert the system from the desired equilibrium regardless of their magnitude. More importantly, the initial allocation of mobility credits may affect the final equilibrium even when marginal transaction costs are constant. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {1 Emergency doors may be bottlenecks in the evacuation of a building. When assessing designs of buildings using a 2 pedestrian simulation model, this model should accurately predict the behavior of pedestrians around emergency 3 doors and thus their capacity. This paper describes the results of the calibration of the pedestrian simulation model 4 Nomad using data of laboratory experiments. In these experiments large heterogeneous groups of people passed 5 through a door under evacuation conditions. The trajectory data collected were used as input into an automated 6 calibration procedure, which yields parameter estimates for individual pedestrians. One of the contributions of this 7 paper is that this automated calibration procedure has been extended by including data from multiple pedestrians 8 into a single estimate. This way convergence problems due to the fact that the log-likelihood is insensitive to 9 changes in some of the parameters and the problems of unrealistic parameter estimates are overcome. The resulting 10 parameter distributions provide insight into pedestrian behavior. Here, we have estimated dedicated parameter sets 11 for elderly, adults and children. The second contribution of this paper is the comparison of the parameter sets, and 12 thus behaviors of the types of pedestrians, which shows that indeed different behavior is observed. 13 INTRODUCTION 14 Emergency doors may be bottlenecks in the evacuation of a building. In design guidelines requirements have been 15 set to the door width, depending on the number of persons that rely on a specific door (1,2). The Dutch guidelines, 16 indicating a capacity of 135 persons per minute per meter door width, are based on rather old experimental research 17 with healthy students (3), while both the fire department and recent literature studies (4,5) indicate that the 18 capacities mentioned in the (Dutch) design guidelines are rather high. 19 In 2002, the department Transport {\&} Planning of the Delft University of Technology performed laboratory 20 experiments with a narrow bottleneck. This resulted in a capacity of 1.77 P/m/s (6). However, the narrow bottleneck 21 consisted of a corridor of five meters long, whereas a doorway usually has a length of 10-40 centimeters. This will 22 most likely lead to a higher capacity for doorways, since pedestrians may accept shorter headways for a short period 23 of time. 24 Kretz et al. (7) performed bottleneck experiments as well. In these experiments, the bottleneck was a thick 25 wall of 40 cm with an opening the pedestrians had to pass. Different widths for the opening have been considered 26 (40 cm, 50 cm, 60 cm, 70 cm, 80 cm, 90 cm, 100 cm, 120 cm, 140 cm, and 160 cm). The participants consisted of 27 healthy students; the experimental conditions were normal. A linear decrease of the capacity is shown with 28 increasing bottleneck width as long as only one person at a time can pass (from 2.2 P/m/s for 40 cm to 1.78 P/m/s 29 for 70 cm width). A constant value of the capacity of around 1.8 P/m/s is shown for larger bottleneck widths (70 cm, 30 80 cm, 100 cm and 120 cm). 31 Experimental research by (8) and (9) indicated much higher capacities for bottleneck widths varying 32 between 80 cm and 160 cm, namely between 2.29 P/m/s and 3.23 P/m/s. The very high densities at the start of the 33 experiments can explain these high values. Also, the configuration of the bottleneck is slightly different, which 34 affects the measured capacities (10). These values correspond to the threshold indicated in the design guidelines. 35 In many more researches observations have been performed on corridors and in areas with many 36 pedestrians present (e.g. stations, inner cities and stadiums), for overviews see (11;12). The capacities found vary 37 between 1.03 P/m/s and 1.67 P/m/s, thus much lower than the design guidelines. However, these capacities are 38 found in normal conditions. 39 40 To see which capacities are realistic and to assess and improve ways in which bottlenecks are used during 41 evacuation conditions, knowledge regarding the microscopic and macroscopic phenomena at bottlenecks is required. 42 Therefore, experimental research has been performed to collect detailed data on pedestrian behavior in and around 43 doors during emergency conditions (13). 44 45 In Europe and also in the United States, a change is made in the last decades from prescriptive guidelines to 46 performance based guidelines. In the latter case, engineering (being a quantitative application of scientific laws) is 47 used for design purposes. As it is put in (14), " the basis of all building activity should be the performance of the 48 building in use rather than the prescription of how the building is to be constructed " . One of the issues in this respect 49 is the availability of tools to predict and to assess this building performance, among other things with respect to the 50 pedestrian flows in the building. Pedestrian simulation tools have been shown to be suitable for these kinds of 51 predictions and assessments. However, it is essential that the considered tool is accurately calibrated and validated, 52},

We are able to assess the 7 robustness of the results by reporting standard errors. The approach also makes results considerably easier 8 to interpret, evaluate and use for qualitative forecasting. Further, the model allows correlation between 9 travel times on different network segments and presents a way to estimate the correlation experienced by a 10 driver traversing the segments sequentially on the trip. The model is applied in a case study for the 11 network of Stockholm, Sweden. We find that geometric attributes and trip conditions have significant 12 effects on travel times and that there is significant correlation between segments. 13 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In this paper we explore the air pollution levels along types of bicycle facilities using a NO 2 land use model previously developed for Montreal. We explore potential associations between bicycle volumes through signalized intersections and pollution levels at those intersections. We further investigate this relationship through the comparison of over thirty cycling corridors as well as an evaluation of the potential exposure of cyclists to air pollution along five routes. We observe NO 2 concentrations to be positively correlated with bicycle flows at the intersection level. We also observe that corridors with either a bicycle path or cycle track generally rank higher in terms of bicycle volume and also have higher NO 2 concentrations than corridors without bicycle facilities. This indicates that intersections and bicycle facilities with a large number of cyclists are also those characterized with the highest air pollution levels. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015 Sharif University of Technology. All rights reserved.Identifying hazardous locations on highways is a fundamental step in safety improvement programs and projects since it provides decision makers with a basis for allocating budgets and other resources in a cost-effective manner. Extensive research has been conducted to identify such locations. However, most studies have ignored the spatial characteristics of crash occurrences and the relative signiffcance of injury severity. In this study, we develop a procedure for identifying hazardous locations on expressways based on Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) and Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO). GWR is a spatial regression method that can reect spatial dependency and heterogeneous relationships between crash occurrences and other explanatory variables. EPDO is a comprehensive measure of crash occurrences weighted by the level of injury severity. We apply this procedure to a case study in Gyeongbu Expressway in Korea. The ffndings from our case study show that the procedure can identify hazardous locations on roadways while reecting crash frequency and injury severity simultaneously with the comprehensive measure.},

abstract = {Natural and man-made disasters lead to massive human, economic, and social losses. The frequency and severity of these disasters creates the need for more effective evacuation strategies. Recent events, namely Hurricane Katrina (the single most expensive and among the five deadliest natural disasters in U.S. history), have demonstrated that human behavior during an evacuation is complex and difficult to predict accurately. Analysis of human behavior during similar extreme events has also shown that social interactions have a significant impact on decision making logic. As such, the objective of this paper is to account for social interactions and the role of an individuals' social network in the transportation evacuation model. The authors begin on the microscopic level by developing a method for forming links between individuals based on common characteristics. Next, the authors move to the macroscopic level and utilize a latent space approach to determine the influence individuals have on one another within a social network. Finally, the microscopic and macroscopic data are combined within the framework of a choice model in order to transform the social data into a binary decision variable; either to evacuate or not to evacuate. These decision variables form a demand loading scheme which can be used to simulate evacuation scenarios in a transportation simulation software.},

Many different approaches and software have been adopted to undertake LCCA in many transportation agencies in the United States over last decade. In 2007 the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) adopted RealCost, the LCCA software developed by U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for statewide implementation with major enhancement and customization. This paper introduces the Caltrans LCCA procedure and describes the functions and improvements of the enhanced California version of RealCost software. The first enhancement is the traffic data module with four representative traffic patterns generated through the Caltrans traffic database system. The second improvement is adding the cost estimating modules for initial construction and subsequent maintenance and rehabilitation (M{\&}R), based on the Caltrans historical contract bid database and their design procedure. The third feature is the M{\&}R sequence automation with graphical user-friendly interfaces to integrate service life, maintenance frequency, and agency costs with given project constraints such as, climate region, final pavement surface, and design life. The main focus of the California LCCA enhancement is to improve the efficiency of LCCA procedures with automatic data selection and computerized calculations. This enhanced RealCost California version is being adopted as an official LCCA tool to comply with regulatory requirement for California state highway projects. Utilization of this California-customized LCCA software would contribute to achieve substantial economic benefits for highway projects.

Seoul, 2 Korea is one such city that plans to construct a new 30 km water transit system on the Han River, 3 which flows through the city center. Although the new system is very appealing to policymakers, 4 uncertainty for various stakeholders should be minimized in order to complete the system 5 successfully. The objectives of this study are to understand the types of uncertainty, to identify 6 primary factors related to uncertainty and to provide valuable information with regard to stakeholder 7 uncertainty to decision makers. This study focuses specifically on mode choice behavior, which is a 8 crucial component in travel demand analyses performed when a new transportation mode is 9 introduced. In this study, the effects of pro-environmental attitudes on mode choice behavior are 10 analyzed using stated preference (SP) survey data for a new water transit system in Seoul. A model 11 was developed that integrates latent variables into the discrete choice model using full-information 12 estimation method to ensure the inclusion of consistent and unbiased parameters. The results of this 13 study show that the pro-environmental attitude directly and significantly influences mode choice 14 behavior. Furthermore, pro-environment attitudes were found to positively affect other latent 15 attitudes such as preference for an eco-friendly transportation mode. The findings of this study will 16 serve as a valuable source of information that can be utilized by policy makers and transportation 17 planners to plan and establish sustainable transportation systems. 18 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Lane utilization on the highway is affected subtly by dynamic traffic management systems such as speed controls and lane management. To optimize the operation of dynamic traffic management, a better understanding of lane utilization is required, in particular, of how the flows of different vehicle classes (e.g., passenger cars, lorries) vary across the carriageway. Most loop detector systems do not collect this multilane, multiclass count data. This study developed a procedure for estimating multilane, multiclass counts from a variety of standard aggregate loop data formats from around the world. The estimation procedure involved the inference of multilinear regression laws that relate multilane, multiclass data to standard aggregate formats. The regression laws were then trained with small samples of individual vehicle data on a site-by-site basis. Preliminary results showed that the estimation procedure worked rather well, even when the input data were minimal-the extreme case being that of (U.S.-style) single-loop data, for which only flow and occupancy were available on a by lane basis. An error analysis indicated that small amounts of individual vehicle data were sufficient to train the estimator, provided they contained a representative mix of the flow behaviors at the site in question. Further work is required for the practical development of the tool, but it appears to have a wide range of potential uses for both researchers and practitioners.},

These closures were opposed by those concerned with the possible effects on traveler safety, tourism dollars, and the commonwealth's business reputation. Virginia's SRAs were reopened in the spring of 2010, but not before the Virginia General Assembly passed House Joint Resolution 126 and Senate Joint Resolution 99 in early 2010 to investigate new and feasible nonpublic funding options for the continued operation of Virginia's SRAs. Federal law (Title 23, U.S. Code, Section 111: agreements relating to use of and access to rights-of-way on the Interstate system) prohibits federal-aid highways from offering any type of commerce for "serving motor vehicle users" at SRAs located on the Interstate Highway System right-of-way unless the establishment was in existence before 1960 and is owned by a state. Accordingly, commercial enterprises in Virginia and elsewhere are located at Interstate interchanges, and changes to the aforementioned federal code are consistently opposed. The nonpublic funding options presented were identified through a review of state and federal law, surveys of Virginia rest area users, interviews with industry groups, an assessment of initiatives by state departments of transportation for Interstate SRA funding, and questionnaires distributed to these state agencies. In the short term, simple options include the expansion of vending items, indoor advertising, and facility sponsorship. Complex options include relocating facilities under regional management and commercial facilities outside the Interstate right-of-way. In the long term, modification of the provisions of Title 23, U.S. Code, Section 111, or the repeal of Title 23, U.S. Code, Section 301: Freedom from tolls, would allow states additional nonpublic funding for Interstate SRAs.},

However, it should not be a 4 constant, and may instead be affected by factors like the mixed proportion of the non-motorized 5 traffic flow. This paper presents a study in estimating the effect of traffic flow characteristics and 6 road design parameters on BE. Three observation sites in Shanghai were chosen for this research, 7 and basic traffic flow parameters (i.e. flow, density, and speed) were extracted from the video 8 collection data. A Concept Method was employed to calculate BE of moped in terms of their 9 time-space resource occupancy on traffic facilities. The free flow speed characteristics of 10 bicycles and mopeds were investigated. Relationships between speeds and densities of the mixed 11 traffic flow were analyzed. BEs were estimated for a range of characteristics related to traffic 12 condition or road design (i.e. moped percentage, traffic flow density, width of non-motorized 13 traffic lane and non-motorized traffic lane grade). The effect of these characteristics on BE and 14 the variation trends of BE were observed, and reasons for these trends were discussed. These 15 findings are valuable to support the measurement of non-motorized traffic mixed with mopeds 16 and bicycles in different traffic and road design conditions. Also it could support the future 17 studies for capacity and LOS of the delicate non-motorized lanes.},

An operational analysis of work zones has recently been formally mandated by the Federal Highway Administration in the US for "significant" projects with a high impact to the traveling public, and is receiving increasing attention internationally. The paper discusses in detail how the current methodology in Chapter 10 of the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual can be applied to the analysis of freeway work zone operations. It shows that realistic and customizable results can be obtained through proper calibration of the free flow speed, lane closure specifications, capacity reduction factors, and origin-destination demand adjustment factors. The methodology is applied to several work zones with varying control strategies. These include daytime barrier work, and nighttime lane closure scenarios with one, two, and three lanes closed. The operational analysis results are validated with data extracted from automated lane-by-lane roadside radar sensors that enable a validation across an extended time-space domain. The paper presents relevant empirical validation on the feasibility of adapting the freeway facilities procedure to work zone applications. The results offer some evidence that the use of analytical HCM approaches for analyzing freeway facilities shows a lot of merit, and should be considered as a viable alternative for work zone analysis to a simulation-based analysis. However, the paper shows that calibration remains a critical piece to assure valid results.},

A key characteristic of it is the heterogeneity of the stakeholders involved. Besides the traditional 22 logistics actors like shippers, carriers and receivers that share consistent interests (i.e. price and quality), City 23 Logistics highly respect the interests of public administrators and citizens that care more about the social 24 welfare. To reach an optimal balance between private and public benefit, it is necessary to understand and in turn 25 forecast the behaviour pattern of different groups. In recent years, agent-based modelling has been practiced as 26 an unconventional tool to fulfil this task for its strong capability on capturing the dynamic behaviour of 27 individual stakeholders and their interconnections. Referring to other domains (e.g. energy system) where the 28 application of agent-based modelling is relatively mature, a following urgency is to achieve interoperability and 29 in turn reusability between models via introducing formal ontology as a shared template with which developers 30 can standardize their models. This paper introduces an initiative of developing an ontology that formalizes the 31 domain knowledge of City Logistics. 32 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The paper reports experience with temporary (dynamic) hard shoulder running on two major freeways in the German Federal State of Hesse. The paper covers both the basic design principles and the operational aspects related to hard shoulder running. Based on loop detector data, the effects of temporary hard shoulder running on freeway capacity and traffic flow characteristics are analyzed. It is shown that the capacity of a three-lane carriageway is increased by 20 - 25 {\%} if the hard shoulder is used as an additional lane during peak hours. The acceptance of hard shoulder running is considerably high among truck drivers.},

abstract = {This paper assesses how exit choice behavior influences the total egress behavior of a crowd during building evacuation. A discrete choice model is proposed to represent pedestrian exit choice decisions during evacuation. The proposed model is based on responses to an Internet questionnaire conducted in the Netherlands and the United States. The results of the Internet questionnaire, consisting of 20 choice experiments by 100 respondents making trade-offs between distance, angular deviation, and group following behavior, are used to estimate a multinomial logit model. Accordingly, a new pedestrian simulation approach that uses a microscopic cellular automata model (EvacPed) is presented. Three levels of decision making are incorporated: global exit choice, regional adaptive route choice, and local operative behavior. Simulations estimate the difference in evacuation time between four exit choice strategies: least distance path, least travel time path, discrete choice incorporating hive knowledge, and discrete choice incorporating vision field. The results suggest that group following behavior has a large impact on the effectiveness of building evacuation.},

The proposed approaches generated high capacity values, even though 12 the observed intersections have near-saturation traffic. High percentage of small vehicles 13 occupied the lateral lane space, which are permitted by gap-forcing and poor lane discipline, 14 besides their smaller footprint. There are some issues encountered when applying the conflict 15 method for non-priority intersection analysis, particularly with the occupation time and PCU 16 values. Thus, further modifications to the conflict method, including the usage of arrival time 17 interval to replace the occupation time, and PCU based on the occupied area by vehicle are 18 suggested.},

abstract = {This study presents a surrogate safety measure for evaluating the rear-end collision risk related to kinematic waves near freeway recurrent bottlenecks using aggregated traffic data from ordinary loop detectors. The attributes of kinematic waves that accompany rear-end collisions and the traffic conditions at detector stations spanning the collision locations were examined to develop the rear-end collision risk index (RCRI). Together with RCRI, standard deviations in occupancy were used to develop a logistic regression model for estimating rear-end collision likelihood near freeway recurrent bottlenecks in real-time. The parameters in the logistic regression models were calibrated using collision data gathered from the 6-mile study site between 2006 and 2007. Findings indicated that an additional unit increase in RCRI results in increasing the odds of rear-end collision by 21.1{\%}, a unit increase in standard deviation of upstream occupancy increases the odds by 19.5{\%}, and a unit increase in standard deviation of downstream occupancy increases the odds by 18.7{\%}. The likelihood of rear-end collisions is highest when the traffic approaching from upstream is near capacity state while downstream traffic is highly congested. The paper also reports on the findings from comparing the predicted number of rear-end collisions at the study site using the proposed model with the observed traffic collision data from 2008. The proposed model's true positive rates were higher than those of existing real-time crash prediction models. {\textcopyright} 2013 Published by Elsevier Ltd.},

The best probabilistic estimate in the 7 light of available information and existing uncertainty represents best estimate of this level of 8 safety and it is important to relate traditional assessment methods to such estimates at a network 9 level. In this regard, the importance of traditional infrastructure management systems far exceed 10 their current interpretation and can now be assimilated within a more holistic hierarchical 11 infrastructure maintenance management framework. Due to the involvement of different 12 stakeholders, the need for cross-asset optimization is emphasized on and the use of more social, 13 environmental and economic descriptors is encouraged. The paper also discusses the importance 14 of structure-specific response models and the degradation models for efficient maintenance 15 management. The nature of a full probabilistic assessment, assisted with detailed inspection and 16 testing is discussed in the framework presented.

This concept was used in the development of most transit assignment models. Whether transfer penalties and waiting times are more highly valued than onboard travel times largely has been ignored in these assignment models. The literature on the estimation of the value of time for public transport passengers also ignores the complexity of choices faced by transit travelers in large cities. An effort to close this gap addressed the question of whether different passenger groups choose different strategies at stops. A web-based survey was conducted, and data from 597 individuals from various countries were obtained. Hyperpath selection was formulated as a discrete choice model, and the relative weights were estimated. Nested logit models were used to consider the correlation between alternatives within the hyperpath. Results indicated that individual specific attributes significantly influenced passengers' selection of hyperpath.},

Cost-effectiveness depends largely on the actual cost per mile, but conservative estimates place the proposed route in the middle of the pack of new-start commuter rail lines: more cost-effective than the routes of Minneapolis, Minnesota, or Austin, Texas, but slightly less cost-effective than those of Albuquerque, New Mexico, or Nashville, Tennessee.

abstract = {Mobile traffic sensors - those move with the flow they are monitoring - have quickly emerged as an important means for traffic monitoring and data collection. In this paper, we propose methods to reconstruct short vehicle trajectories for the entire traffic flow at arterial intersections using sample vehicle trajectories obtained from mobile traffic sensors. The motivation for this work is that once the trajectories for all vehicles are available, a complete picture of the traffic flow will be obtained. Such information can then be applied for arterial performance measurement and other related applications. This paper presents optimization-based and delay-based models to estimate shockwave boundaries at signalized intersections, which are used to reconstruct short vehicle trajectories by applying the variation formulation (VF) of traffic flow. The models are tested using the NGSIM data and micro-simulation data. The results indicate that the proposed models are not very sensitive to penetration rates. In general, the optimization-based model outperforms the delay-based model. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

The project, one of the first in California to close an entire direction 3 of a major freeway during commuting hours to carry out planned repair work, lasted for about two 4 months and was expected to cause major congestion in the area, which is already ranked in the top 49 5 most congested urban areas in the nation in 2009 [1]. This paper studies the actual traffic impact of the 6 project and analyzes the behavioral and flow pattern changes that it had caused. The results show that 7 traffic on the freeway largely remained, with about 3-7{\%} reduction in daily traffic volume in the 8 downtown area and less than 3{\%} in the outskirt areas. The demand reduction during the commuting peak 9 is more pronounced, at about 7-12{\%}, indicating there is peak spreading. Rather than taking transit, the 10 majority of the drivers who stayed away from the affected freeways during commuting hours chose 11 arterial routes or earlier/later departure times. There is evidence that some drivers turned to car-pool in the 12 initial stages of the project, but they reverted back to solo-driving in the later stages. Moreover, despite 13 record high gas prices, vehicle volumes on the roadways returned to pre-construction levels one month 14 after the construction ended, an indication that people's travel habits are hard to change in the short run. 15 INTRODUCTION 16},

Existing studies have shown the transit uses in TOD neighborhoods were 5 higher than other areas, and most of them used the data based on the site or 6 neighborhood level. This study, with the city-wide station-level data limited to be 7 used in prior studies, examines and identifies the factors that significantly influence 8 the weekday transit ridership in metropolis of Shanghai by using multivariate 9 regressions. The results show that five variables including the number of daily bus 10 services, average bus headway in station catchment area, walking time to the nearest 11 bus stop, the number of exits of transit stations and parking lot around transit stations, 12 are important in contributing to higher rail transit ridership for Shanghai. In particular, 13 the seemingly contradictory results of bus service and average headway show a 14 distinctive inter-modal competition between bus and rail transit in Shanghai, largely 15 different with the western cities between car and public transport. Furthermore, the 16 detailed policy implications corresponding with the significant factors are proposed to 17 guide the practice in the urban and transport development.},

However, the influence of these factors on traffic flow parameters is not well understood. This paper addresses the influence of lane discipline, intra-class variability and composition on traffic flow characteristics under heterogeneous traffic in Chennai city, India. For this purpose, microscopic traffic simulation model was calibrated and validated using field data on a four lane divided urban arterial road in Chennai city, India. The preliminary analysis indicates that the factors such as composition, intra-class variability and lane discipline have a statistically significant effect on stream speed. Speed-flow and speed-density relationships are developed based on simulation results. They show a clear influence of lack of lane discipline, variability, and composition on stream speed. Further, the influence varies depending on volume level and type of subject vehicle. The effect of composition on capacity is also quantified. With predominant share, two-wheelers enjoy better performance in the absence of lane discipline. However, when cars and heavy vehicles have significant presence, the impact of lack of lane discipline is much smaller. The simulation model is applied to evaluate a range of vehicle-type based and lane-based traffic control measures. The results show promise of some vehicle-class based measures, namely, the exclusion of auto rickshaws or auto rickshaws + heavy vehicles. The findings have interesting implications for efficiency, user experience and equity in mixed traffic.},

abstract = {In 2010-2011, an idle and emission reduction program was funded by the USEPA to reduce the idling emissions of Cobb County School District (CCSD) bus fleet. The project aims to reduce idling of school buses by installing GPS, idle detection systems, and automatic engine shutoff devices in 500 school buses and providing bus dispatchers with a web-based system to track vehicle activity and idling in real-time. A team of researchers at Georgia Tech developed the idle control systems and is evaluating the emissions and fuel savings of the project using standard modeling tools. This research effort presents an analysis of baseline school bus idling activity and the results of the emissions modeling for idle reduction potential. EPA's MOVES mobile source emission model was used to develop school bus emission rates for each operating mode, defined by the instantaneous vehicle speed, acceleration and scaled tractive power. Local data for Cobb County and the air quality planning region were also input into the MOVES model. The pollutants modeled include carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter (coarse and fine), oxides of nitrogen, and gaseous hydrocarbons. The vehicle activity data collected through the installed components on the buses was classified into the operating mode bins for each second of recorded data, and multiplied by the corresponding emission rate to determine the total modal emissions before and after project implementation. Preliminary results suggest that thousands of gallons of diesel fuel and thousands of dollars can be saved with the project, improving overall fleet fuel efficiency by 2{\%}, while also reducing emissions in some categories by as much as 38{\%}.},

Yet many performance measures do not account for short pedestrian movements, such as walking between stores in a shopping district, from a street parking space to a building entrance, or from a bus stop to home. This study used a 2009 intercept survey and the 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) to quantify pedestrian travel to, from, and within 20 shopping districts in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. Overall, walking was the primary travel mode for 21{\%} of intercept survey and 10{\%} of NHTS tours with stops in these shopping districts. However, detailed analysis of pedestrian movements showed that walking was common on respondent tours (52{\%} of intercept survey tours included some walking) and that walking was used on the majority of trips within these shopping districts (65{\%} of intercept survey trips and 71{\%} of NHTS trips within the shopping districts were made by walking). In general, urban core and suburban main street shopping districts had higher levels of pedestrian activity than suburban thoroughfare and suburban shopping center shopping districts. The detailed analysis in this paper provides a more complete picture of pedestrian activity than is commonly shown by national and regional household survey summaries.},

abstract = {1 This paper addresses a centralized carrier collaboration multi-hub location problem (CCCMLP) 2 for the small-to medium-sized less-than-truckload (LTL) industry, a first. The CCCMLP 3 represents a strategy in which a central entity (e.g., a third party logistics firm) seeks a set of 4 hybrid collaborative consolidation transshipment hubs to help establish a collaborative hybrid 5 hub-and-spoke system that minimizes that total collaborative costs for the set of collaborating 6 carriers. Previous studies have primarily focused on addressing the exchange of capacity without 7 considering the location of transfer hubs and the routes that connect them. A carrier has the 8 option to either collaborate or directly ship their respective demand without collaborating. This 9 decision is dependent on the expected profit margin over shipping directly while following a 10 revenue generating rate setting behavior. The CCCMLP is formulated as a variant of the P-hub 11 location problem, which is NP-hard and solved with Lagrangian relaxation. Numerical 12 experiments are conducted to seek insights on the performance of the CCCMLP formulation 13 under various network sizes and number of hubs. The results indicate that larger expected profit 14 margins from the collaborative carriers under a revenue generating behavior would increase the 15 likelihood of carriers collaborating. Also, as the network size increases the effect of hybrid hub 16 locational costs was less. 17 18 Keywords: Collaborative logistics, Freight transportation, Less-than-truckload trucking, Multi-19 hub location, hybrid hub-and-spoke 20 21 22 23},

abstract = {1 Traditionally, neither transportation models nor land use models can effectively describe 2 the complex interactions between transportation and land use. To explore this interaction, this 3 paper uses an integrated model platform, called LandSys-FSUTMS. In the model framework, 4 LandSys produces land use change over the space and time dimensions, allocates land use 5 forecast results in terms of household and employment at the traffic analysis zone (TAZ) level, 6 and feeds these socioeconomic data into FSUTMS. Then, the produced travel time and 7 accessibility index by FSUTMS are fed back into LandSys. To evaluate the effect of land use 8 change on the entire transportation system, the performance of FSUTMS model was compared 9 with and without integrating LandSys. To understand the effects of the existing and future 10 transportation system on land use development, the TAZ-based household/employment 11 allocation results from LandSys are also compared. In the case of Orange County, FL in 2000, 12 2012 and 2025, five major indicators of transportation networks were used: link saturation in the 13 transportation network, overall vehicle miles traveled (VMT), vehicle hours traveled (VHT), 14 greenhouse gas emission (e.g., CO2, CO, HC, NO), and fuel consumptions. The results show that: 15 the values of five indicators are lower in the integrated model than those predicted by standalone 16 FSUTMS models. In addition, it also shows that the standalone LandSys model produces fewer 17 households and employments in the center of the study area, and more on the edge of the city 18 than that estimated by the integrated model.},

abstract = {The decision of whether and when to evacuate can be characterized as decision making under risk. Presently, most models assume linear utility functions through which it is impossible to disentangle factors that influence risk attitudes and other factors that affect decision making under risk. There is a need to disentangle and study factors that affect risk attitudes from factors that affect an evacuee's preparation time. The aim in doing so is to provide planners and practitioners with an ability to measure a person's risk attitude and develop appropriate strategies that could motivate people to evacuate. This study is expected to connect the theory of risk developed in economic theory with behavior under threat. The paper uses the Hurricane Andrew response data in conjunction with time-dependent data on the probability of a hurricane strike and the category of the hurricane data to develop a model for evacuation departure choice. A constant relative risk aversion specification is used to model risk attitudes. The process of an evacuation is abstracted as an individual being given a choice between two lotteries: either to stay or leave. The results show that the model is able to predict the total number of evacuees and the time varying evacuation rates with reasonable accuracy. Factors such as time of day, length of time spent in a region, and whether a mandatory evacuation order was issued affected risk attitudes. The presence of children affected the amount of time spent preparing if the family decided to stay.},

abstract = {1 This paper focuses on the problem of large-scale pavement maintenance and 2 rehabilitation planning. Pavement agencies usually have to deal with large and diverse 3 networks consisting of thousands of pavement sections. As a result, the complexity of 4 pavement maintenance and rehabilitation planning increases exponentially as the size of 5 the network increases. Exact optimization methods designed for small-scale problems 6 thus suffer from the issue of dimensionality, significantly compromising the ability to 7 solve such problems in a reasonable time period. Consequently, such problems should be 8 approached from the direction of approximation. This paper proposes using the methods 9 of the Lagrangian relaxation technique and the branch-and-cut algorithm as a 10 decomposition scheme for pavement maintenance and rehabilitation planning problems 11 where the size of the problem poses a major hurdle for its solution. The proposed 12 approach first decomposes the network (original problem) into individual sections 13 (subproblems) and solves the subproblems separately. As shown in the case study where 14 two examples are used, the proposed approach is able to efficiently solve problems with a 15 practical size. More specifically, the results show that the proposed method can solve 16 problems with a network of 1,000 sections within a reasonable time period, yielding 17 solution very close to the optimal one. 18 19},

The work that is presented in this paper is an effort toward advancing the state of integration between activity-based models and traffic assignment routines. In this study, a time-incremental dynamic traffic assignment model has been developed and integrated with ADAPTS, a dynamic activity based travel demand model developed for the Chicago region. Despite other integration studies, the most updated LOS from the DTA model is used in updating activity plans and schedules during the simulation. For validation, a 10{\%} sample of the population of the region were synthesized and fed into the integrated model. The model then generated travel activities of individuals and simulated them on the network while updating activity plans and schedules at the end of each interval using updated network condition. 1. INTRODUCTION For many years, aggregate levels were used in travel demand modeling and traffic assignment methods, due to the mathematical simplicity and computational power cost. However, the limitation and disadvantages of these models encouraged the researchers toward disaggregate and dynamic models. In the area of travel demand modeling, activity based models started forming and in the area of traffic assignment Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) models started to grow. Different definition of DTA has been defined in the literature, but in this paper, DTA is referred to traffic assignment models that consider dynamics in traffic flow and network condition.},

Moore, Figliozzi, and Monsere 2 ABSTRACT 1 Congested traffic corridors in dense urban areas are key contributors to the degradation of urban air 2 quality. While waiting at bus stops, transit patrons may be exposed to greater amounts of vehicle-based 3 pollution, including particulate matter, due to their proximity to the roadway. Current guidelines for the 4 location and design of bus stops do not take into account air quality or exposure considerations. This 5 study compares the exposure of transit riders waiting at three-sided bus stop shelters that either: 1) face 6 the roadway traffic or 2) face away from the roadway traffic. Shelters were instrumented with air quality 7 monitoring equipment, sonic anemometers, and vehicle counters. Data were collected for two days at 8 three shelters during both the morning and afternoon peak periods. Bus shelter orientation is found to 9 significantly affect concentration of four sizes of particulate matter: ultrafine particles, PM 1 , PM 2.5 , and 10 PM 10 . Shelters with an opening oriented towards the roadway were consistently observed to have higher 11 concentrations inside the shelter than outside the shelter. In contrast, shelters oriented away from the 12 roadway were observed to have lower concentrations inside the shelter than outside the shelter. The 13 differences in particulate matter concentration were statistically significant across all four sizes of 14 particulate matter studied. Traffic flow was shown to have a significant relationship with all sizes of 15 particulate concentration levels inside bus shelters. Micro-scale anemometer measurements were made 16 next to bus shelters. Both wind speed and direction were shown to affect particulate concentrations 17 differently depending on shelter orientation. 18 19 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

A better understanding of travel behavior of families and 30 households will improve travel demand forecasting and the assessment of emerging transport policies. 31 This cross-sectional study used the 2006 Puget Sound Regional Council Household Activity and Travel 32 Survey data to investigate activity-travel patterns of 7,709 adults living in the Puget Sound Region, 33 Washington. Multilevel regression models with the individual as the first level and the household as a 34 second level were developed. With one-third of the participants living with children, the results showed 35 that individuals who lived with children made 20{\%} more non work trips than those who did not. There 36 was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of size of activity realm. Also, whether 37 individuals lived with children or not was found to be an insignificant variable to predict individuals' 38 automobile dependence. The impact of residential density on parents was no different from that of non 39 parents. Interactions among gender, work status, and whether adults lived with children or not, 40 revealed complex travel patterns according to different population subgroups. Women who worked part 41 time and lived with children made the second highest number of non work trips after women who were 42 unemployed and lived with children. Men who worked part time and lived with children had the largest 43 individual activity realm. Interestingly, men who did not work but lived with children traveled the least. 44 45},

abstract = {The rapid motorization of China raises questions about the potential for alternative mobility solutions, such carsharing (short-term auto use), in developing mega cities like Shanghai, with a population of over 17 million people. While motor vehicle demand is increasing rapidly, there are many aspects of urban transportation in Shanghai (and China more broadly) that separate it from the urban environments in which carsharing has traditionally thrived. For example, the taxi plays a much more prominent role in the transportation system of Shanghai and Beijing than it does in most North American and European cities. Carsharing has also traditionally thrived in environments in which the broader population has experience with both driving and automotive ownership, which is relatively lacking in Shanghai. To evaluate carsharing's potential in Shanghai, the authors comparatively analyze the size and competitiveness of the taxi systems of key carsharing cities in Europe, North America, and Asia and highlight some core distinctions between Shanghai and other major cities where carsharing has thrived. To further explore the potential response of citizens to carsharing, the authors conducted a survey (N=271) of a subpopulation in Shanghai. The survey analysis shows that those interested in carsharing are younger, more likely to be educated, have longer commutes, and own fewer cars than those not interested in carsharing. Following analysis of the survey data, the authors conclude with a discussion of the implications of these results for the development of the carsharing industry in Shanghai.},

Results indicate that empirical estimates vary across study regions, data collection methods and estimation techniques. It is found that elasticity estimates are site-specific and that variability depends upon the parking policy being adopted. The study produced a baseline direct parking demand elasticity estimate of-0.39, which is consistent in line with to the rule of thumb of -0.30.

A log-linear regression model was used to 12 investigate influential factors on HOV lane collision impacts, such as lane 13 configuration, collision duration, injury or not, peak period or not, collision type and 14 weather condition. The K-S test result proves that the distribution of samples drawn 15 from continuous-access HOV facilities is equal to that of limited-access ones, but for 16 the adjacent GP lane the impact is different. The results from the regression analysis 17 imply that the impacts of HOV lane collision on both HOV and the adjacent GP lanes 18 may be different in different HOV lane configurations. 19 20 21 Keywords: 22 High-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane, adjacent general purpose (GP) lane, collision 23 impact, collision delay 24 25 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

In this research we develop three models to understand the 5 effect of walk scores (as indicators of walkability) on walking in general, on different trip types and what 6 changes should be expected with changing walk scores along different parts of the walk score spectrum. 7 Results suggest that this tool provides a reasonable heuristic to assist in assessing trip generation 8 for individual projects and identifies the overwhelming relationship between the built environment and 9 walking. With the universal availability of such data, planners can establish a consistent, cost-effective 10 tool for assessing walking behavior with robust and transferrable results. 11 12},

In July 2010, the Bay Area Toll Authority (BATA) increased tolls on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge from a flat toll collected westbound only to week-day peak and off-peak tolls. BATA also instituted a carpool toll of {\$}2.50 (previously carpools crossed for free) payable by FasTrak electronic toll collection tag only. With floating-car data provided by BATA, the change in travel time for the I- 80, I-580, and I-880 approaches was computed by payment type (cash, FasTrak, and high-occupancy vehicle access lanes) and hour. Travel times were found to have been reduced by 0 to 16 min for cash customers (varying by time of day and approach), with varying results for FasTrak customers and little change for high-occupancy vehicle customers. Data collected by BATA at the toll plaza were analyzed by hour and payment type. The analysis found that the number of vehicles in the carpool lanes was reduced by more than 20 per cent at times, whereas FasTrak volumes remained steady or increased and cash volumes were slightly lower than before the toll switch.},

ABSTRACT 1 Traffic state estimation provides a detailed picture of the conditions of a traffic network based on the 2 limited traffic measurements and, as such, plays a key role in the Intelligent Transportation Systems. Most 3 of the existing state estimation algorithms are based on Kalman filtering and its variants, which, starting 4 from the current estimate, predict the future state and then correct it based on the new measurements. 5 Most often, traffic measurements are aggregated over multiple time steps and this opens a question of 6 what is the best way to use this information for state estimation. A standard approach that performs the 7 correction only at the time step when the aggregated measurement is received is suboptimal. In this paper, 8 we propose to reconstruct the high resolution measurements from the aggregated ones, and use them to 9 correct the state estimates at every time step. We considered several reconstruction techniques from signal 10 processing, including kernel regression and a reconstruction approach based on convex optimization. The 11 proposed approach was evaluated on real-world NGSIM data collected at Interstate I-101, located in Los 12 Angeles, California. Experimental results showed that signal reconstruction leads to more accurate traffic 13 state estimation as compared to the standard approach for dealing with aggregated measurements.},

The orientations of 238 rock 30 discontinuities visible in the model were measured. A Brunton Geotransit was used to collect 31 additional measurements from behind the rockfall fence and to validate the model measurements. 32 Discontinuity measurements were used to analyze the potential for plane, toppling, and 33 wedge failures, to assess the variability of dip angle and dip direction along the alignment, and to 34 optimize the azimuth of horizontal drain holes. The digital model was used to locate the possible 35 outcrop of clay seams encountered in rock core borings. 36 Using digital photogrammetry permitted measurement of discontinuities in higher parts 37 of the outcrop without rappelling or free-climbing. A great volume of data was collected in a 38 short period of time, reducing exposure to rockfalls and traffic. Discontinuities were measured 39 over a greater area of their extent, and discontinuities having limited surface exposure were 40 measured by digitizing their trace across the outcrop. Using digital photogrammetry reduced the 41 potential for human error in the collection, recording, and processing of data, and facilitated 42 performance of some of the analyses required for designing a safer rock cut slope. 43 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Freight truck identification and tracking algorithms were developed by means of cell phone network data and the established freight truck analysis geographic information system (GIS), to recognize freight trucks and determine their truckshed. A case study was conducted to illustrate the truckshed tracking process and verify the tracking results from the cell phone network. Cell phones leaving from the test logistics distribution center were tracked and classified based on the developed tracking algorithms. The case study also demonstrated the processes of determining the geographic extent and traffic impact on the transportation network from the test logistics distribution center. The results showed that the proposed tracking algorithms can identify a similar percentage of freight truck data from the test facility compared with manual counts. The analysis of geographic extent indicated that 60{\%} of freight traffic stayed within 30 miles of the facility, and approximately 20{\%} of the traffic was considered long-haul freight traffic traveling more than 80 miles away. The long-haul tracking results found that most of the long-haul trucks returned to the original test facility during the same day. It is recommended that the tracking algorithms and data analysis process could also be applied to any other freight trucking terminal or intermodal transportation facility, as long as the cell phone network data are available. A complete freight GIS analysis network around the study area is also recommended to understand the likely destinations.},

abstract = {Algorithms for finding time-dependent system optimal flow patterns in a network require the evaluation of marginal travel times/costs, which is difficult to do in a dynamic context, especially when a traffic simulator is used to capture flow propagation for network loading. Traffic simulators that track vehicle movement through the network produce trajectories that define the anatomy of vehicular flow movement in the network. The present paper builds on the micro level analysis of the anatomy of flow movement to evaluate marginals that can guide the search for system optimal traffic strategies. A perturbation analysis method designed for a general discrete event traffic simulator is introduced in order to quantify the sensitivity of the path travel times to the path flows. The method is applicable as long as trajectories are available. This framework relies on the general rules of traffic flow such as moving forward along a path, and sharing common sources of capacity at the merge points. This general technique is implemented in connection with a specific mesoscopic traffic simulator. The performance of the technique is evaluated by comparing its derivative values with the values obtained from a brute force numerical method. Finally application of the perturbation analysis in solving the system-optimal dynamic traffic assignment (SO{\_}DTA) problem is described, in conjunction with a new solution method called SO{\_}ordered method. Executing this method requires the calculation of the particle marginal travel times which is made possible through use of the perturbation analysis method. The approach presented in this paper has the potential to considerable improve our ability to compute system optimal traffic strategies in practice.},

The station locations are optimized by minimizing the total cost in the lower level and the length of the transit line is minimized by optimizing the sequence of the stations in the upper level. A Genetic Algorithm-based optimization algorithm is developed to optimize each objective function at the lower and upper levels. The model is applied in a hypothetical example around Washington, DC area. The tentative alignment of the transit line is obtained as the optimal locations and sequence of stations are determined.

abstract = {Estimation of traffic ground truth has traditionally been accomplished either by the use of a trusted reference detector, or by human observation of time-coded video recordings. These approaches are limited by the error characteristics of any single trusted detector, or the temporal and spatial resolution of the recorded video used by the human observer. For conventional traffic management purposes, the output of a trusted detector is usually adequate. However, for unbiased performance assessment and comparative ranking of vehicle detectors, an accurate ground truth estimate is essential. With this objective, we have implemented an automated detector testing system which utilizes consensus filtering methods typically employed in the fusion of data from multi-sensor networks to optimally estimate ground truth. The algorithm continuously adjusts a level of confidence in each detector under test, which are used to form a weighted consensus decision for the presence, speed and length of each vehicle. Individual detectors under test are then assessed by comparison with the estimated ground truth record, and by the confidence factors generated by the algorithm. This paper describes the algorithm and presents testing methodology to determine its ability to accurately estimate ground truth by use of synthetic traffic data for which absolute ground truth is known, and synthetic detector data derived from the ground truth with known injected errors. The application of this algorithm in the Caltrans Advanced Traffic Management Systems Detector Testbed is also described.},

While past studies have had to rely on observations from European systems, the recent emergence of several large-scale programs in the U.S. creates an important opportunity to explore the determinants of bike-share use in a more relevant context. This understanding will lead to more effective strategies for promoting the bike-share mode in pursuit of reduced congestion, enhanced air quality, and improved public health. This project analyzed recent data from a bicycle sharing program in Minneapolis (the "Nice Ride" program) and applied the findings to Sacramento, where a program is currently being considered. A regression analysis of Nice Ride rentals was conducted to identify the determinants of monthly rentals and to establish a predictive model. These findings were then evaluated in Sacramento to recommend a program service area and predict ridership. First, a weighted sum raster analysis was performed to identify suitable locations for a program and to recommend service areas. Second, the coefficients of the Nice Ride regression model were applied to characteristics of the recommended service areas to predict ridership. Estimated ridership ranged between 26,864 and 28,266 rentals per month. These estimates can be used to predict program revenues and facilitate effective decision-making. The study also found that underlying differences between Minneapolis and Sacramento played a key role in the results, indicating that this methodology should be repeated for pairs of more similar cities as data from more U.S. programs become available.},

It finds that about half households are willing to pay for such a program, though the price varies significantly from household to household. On average, the WTP is {\$}17 per month for a residential parking permit. The value is significantly higher than all parking permit programs in the United States, but close to major European cities such as London, Vienna, and Amsterdam. The paper also finds that both car ownership and usage affect WTP following a " n " curve-higher car ownership and usage are associated with lower WTP. Transit usage also influences WTP as frequent riders are willing to pay a higher price for a permit, which suggests a potential negative effect on transit ridership from a parking permit program. The research also finds that permits may not solve the parking cruise problem if the crowding is primarily caused by local residents. Actually, residents are willing to pay less if parking cruise time increases. This suggests that a permit program might not be feasible in neighborhoods with very high density. The paper also argues that residential permit programs should act as a value tool to manage travel demand instead of an exclusion tool to non-residents.},

abstract = {Understanding the factors which influence passengers' choice of air itinerary is of great importance, in order to enable aviation decision-makers to make optimal marketing and operational decisions with respect to consumer behavior. Mature markets with relatively high per-capita rate of air travel activity (e.g., Europe and North America) have experienced substantial research in this respect. An important issue is whether the insight gained in previous studies, which focused on preferences in such markets, applies to markets with low frequencies of airline patronage, such as South American and Middle Eastern market. This study centers on a survey of travelers in Tehran, Iran, a large market in the Middle East. The survey aimed to collect data on passengers' characteristics, their travel pattern and available choice sets, attitudinal information and stated willingness-to-pay. Comparing the rate of air travel activity in this market with that of mature markets confirms the lower rate of travel per capita in this market. Furthermore, passengers' itinerary choice behavior is investigated using multinomial logit analysis. The estimated models indicate that passengers are sensitive to flight's level of services, as well as price and travel time.},

Being a transit first city, one of the most 3 common uses for San Francisco's travel model SF-CHAMP is to analyze transit demand under various 4 circumstances. SF-CHAMP v 4.1 (Harold) is able to capture the effects of several aspects of transit 5 provision including headways, stop placement, and travel time. However, unlike how auto level of 6 service in a user equilibrium traffic assignment is responsive to roadway capacity, SF-CHAMP Harold 7 is unable to capture any benefit related to capacity expansion, crowding's effect on travel time nor or 8 any of the real-life true capacity limitations. The failure to represent these elements of transit travel has 9 led to significant discrepancies between model estimates and actual ridership. Additionally it does not 10 allow decision-makers to test the effects of policies or investments that increase the capacity of a given 11 transit service. This paper presents the framework adopted into a more recent version of SF-CHAMP 12 (Fury) to represent transit capacity and crowding within the constraints of our current modeling 13 software. 14 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

According to the 2009 National Household Travel Survey, about 40{\%} of household vehicles were not used on the survey travel day. This study analyzed household vehicle use and non-use by vehicle type, age, and area type (metropolitan statistical area [MSA] and non-MSA). Vehicles used on survey day with or without a reported travel time and distance in the survey are considered “vehicles used.” All others are referred to as “vehicles not used.” The authors divided the “vehicles not used” into three categories: (1) left at home while using other household vehicles, (2) not used because travelers used other modes, and (3) no household trips. The “vehicle used” category comprises two categories: (1) those with distance and time data and (2) those with no travel data. Within these five categories, vehicles were further subdivided according to four vehicle types: car, van, SUV, and pickup. Each vehicle type was further subdivided in two age groups: 10 years or less ({\textless}=10) and more than 10 years ({\textgreater}10). In addition, vehicle usage was compared in both MSAs and non-MSAs and during weekdays and weekends. Results indicate that most vehicles, especially pickups, are not used because the households own and use other vehicles. Moreover, SUVs — especially newer SUVs ({\textless}=10 years) — are the most utilized vehicle type and should be considered as the first available vehicle type for new-technology vehicles.},

The results showed that rail, bus, e-bike, bike and walk are the main travel mode choices, and the mode share of various travel modes in different rail station, different spatial and oriented area showed obviously spatial variation characteristics. The effects of land use-related and transport-related factors on travel mode choice were quite different, the latter played a more important role than the former in affecting travel mode choice, and the variance explained by land use-related and transport-related factors separately varied considerably depending on the travel mode considered. 1 INTRODUCTION Urban sprawl has resulted in increasing social costs such as traffic congestion and environmental degradation. To combat the growing urban problem, such as, brought by the vast popularity of automobiles (1), urban transportation planners have turned to use various methods to encourage people to use public transit and enhance their mode share(2), including high-density development, pedestrian-friendly urban design, and mixed land use, especially near transit centers such as rail stations. Therefore, we should exactly identify what are the key factors that mainly influence people's travel mode choice at first. There have been a number of studies that have examined the impacts of different factors on people's travel mode choice, such as built environment characteristics (3), land use (4; 5; 6), complexity of trip chaining(7), employment site characteristics(8), and so on. Methods used were mostly qualitative analysis, or the quantitative analysis of multiple regressions, but only to explore the relationship between travel mode choices and different factors, in lack of the really quantitative method, so the net effect of different factors on mode choice was often unclear. The redundancy analysis as a linear ordering technique can achieve a real sense of the quantification of different factors' effect, which was important and helpful for policy-makers and urban planners to know how to improve related influence factors to increase transit ridership. Transit-oriented development (TOD), first proposed by an American architect and planner named Calthrope, has begun to get recognition as a way to solve urban problems. The TOD is commonly identified with the US and European nations. Recently, some Asian governments like China and Korea have begun to examine the possibility of implementing TOD in order to address their urban problems, especially traffic congestion resulting from the disconnect between urban development and transportation (9; 10; 11; 12). Urban development should focus on the public transit area, to try the best to enhance the transit ridership, which is necessary for low carbon city construction and sustainable development.

Transit priority systems have the potential to improve transit 3 performance and address capacity constraints by giving priority to transit movements over other traffic. 4 This research focuses on the effectiveness of conditional transit priority, or the manipulation of traffic 5 signal timing plans to reduce delay of late transit buses. The integration of two different transportation 6 subsystems is studied: traffic signals and public transit systems. These subsystems interact along a 7 congested corridor where they share a common roadway infrastructure and transit signal priority (TSP) 8 regulates the interaction between traffic signals, passenger traffic and buses. Previous research has 9 focused on bus TSP performance evaluation at the route level. However, in practice it is important to 10 understand not only TSP performance at the route level but also the impact of TSP at the traffic signal 11 intersection level, e.g. to allow progression in major cross streets. Furthermore, TSP can significantly 12 improve performance at specific intersections even though at the route level TSP shows a more modest 13 impact. This research proposes the integration of several datasets such as bus scheduling and location, 14 passenger flows, and TSP requests to evaluate schedule adherence the stop level and TSP performance at 15 the signalized intersection level. We analyze a congested arterial corridor and utilize regression analysis 16 to determine the key factors that affect bus travel time and schedule recovery for late buses. We found 17 that TSP tends to be most effective at lower volume intersections where queuing is less problematic. 18 Implications of the findings are analyzed and discussed.},

This paper analyzes the electronic processes directly related to GPS machine controlled grading and evaluates the affects any proposed changes would have on current KDOT design and construction inspection practices. Information obtained from other state practices, a pilot project within Kansas and partnering within KDOT and throughout the construction industry was used to develop new electronic processes. The electronic processes developed updated construction specifications and the electronic deliverables policy. The updated construction specifications addressed contractors " responsibilities for using electronic design files and adjusted KDOT " s staking requirements and construction inspection practices to account for projects using GPS machine controlled grading. The main decisions made regarding the electronic deliverables policy included determining what electronic design files to provide to contractors, the timing of the files release and the legal considerations. It was decided to release the two-dimensional Computer Aided Design (CAD) files most frequently created during the design process to contractors prior to bidding. A new disclaimer was used to cover legal concerns of releasing the files. Under the policy, KDOT does not provide contractors with a 3D model; contractors are required to create their own model to use GPS machine controlled grading.},

ABSTRACT Econometric models based on simulations are extensively used in transportation. Simulation methods only provide an approximation of the objective function and produce estimators that suffer from bias and loss in efficiency. Two types of bias are known to exist in simulation-based estimators; the simulation bias, due to the nonlinear transformation in the log-likelihood (LL) function, and the optimization bias, caused by the maximization operator, that depends on the variance of the simulated LL with respect to the random draws and the population sample. In this paper, we study the properties of the estimators using re-sampling techniques, in various simulation configurations. In our experiments, we observe that optimization bias dominates simulation bias, and that in presence of panel data, the use of some randomized quasi-Monte Carlo techniques, aiming reducing simulation variance, only marginally affects the estimated parameters for a given sample size. Our experiments also confirm that the population resampling, while numerically costly, is a simple and effective procedure to deliver a better understanding of parameters properties.

The parking rate implementation consisted of a rate increase in some neighborhoods, a rate decrease or no rate change in others. We formulated elasticity as a function of time of day and neighborhood characteristics by developing two generalized least square (GLS) models. We also probed into the potential presence of ―asymmetric behavior‖ — on-street parking demand response to an increase in pricing might respond differently to a decrease in pricing. Results confirm our hypotheses — price elasticity of the parking occupancy is inelastic and varies by time of day and neighborhood characteristics. Furthermore, the price elasticity for neighborhoods with increased rates is higher (-0.304) than that for those with decreased rates (-0.103), suggesting that parking demand is more sensitive to rate increases than decreases, supporting our hypothesis on asymmetric behavior.},

abstract = {This paper develops agent-based model of roadway privatization to evaluate pricing and capacity decisions of private toll roads when they compete with existing public roads and demonstrates the model on a hypothetical grid and beltway structure networks. Several simulation scenarios are presented to illustrate the effects of regulation policy packages of privatized roads and influence of public and private network hierarchy on network growth patterns. Based on the simulation results of the developed agent-based model, a number of insights are provided on the impacts of ownership and network structures on the socio-economic performance in transportation systems. Both the analytical findings and application results on test networks are in favor of introducing private toll roads to current public road systems characterized by growing congestion, insufficient public funding, and inefficient pricing practices. When properly regulated, a privatized transportation network can achieve net social benefits close to the theoretical optimum and distribute a high percentage of welfare gains to travelers. While the public sector is still able to gradually expand roadway capacity over time, additional revenue sources from privatization help to increase network capacity closer to the optimal capacity levels on public roads.

abstract = {The increasingly complex transportation challenges faced by urban areas around the country call for the use of new tools capable of microsimulating the movements of individual travelers and vehicles in multimodal networks. While there have been a number of microsimulation applications for highway networks, the number of such applications for transit or intermodal networks is relatively small. Given the emphasis that is being placed on multimodal transportation system development, and the desire to institute fixed guideway systems that operate in mixed traffic, there is a need to develop simulation processes capable of reflecting the performance of mixed multimodal transportation networks under a variety of planning and operations scenarios. This paper describes results from the application of TRANSIMS to a light rail corridor in the Greater Phoenix metropolitan area. Results of the simulation exercise are intuitive and provide insights on how microsimulation model systems can prove to be effective tools in analyzing alternative multimodal transport network strategies.},

abstract = {The U.S. ethanol industry is rapidly approaching the maximum production volume that could be absorbed by conventional gasoline blends (i.e., those with a volumetric content of 10{\%} ethanol or less). This limit, generally referred to as the blend wall, means that any further increase in biofuels to meet the mandated volumes under the Renewable Fuel Standards (RFS-2) must be achieved through either the increased penetration of mid and high-level ethanol blends, or the production of non-ethanol biofuel. Non-ethanol biofuels which are compatible with current vehicles and fueling infrastructure (so-called drop-in replacement biofuels) oer an appealing prospect, and should be pursued diligently. While these fuels are being explored, and eorts are made to overcome their identied technological and nancial obstacles, it is worth examining the magnitude of the infrastructure costs associated with expanded cellulosic and advanced ethanol use. Insucient retail capacity dedicated to E85 and low station/vehicle numbers are hampering the expansion of blends with more than 10{\%} ethanol content. In 2010, less than 2{\%} of retail gasoline stations oered E85 and only 4{\%} of the light-duty vehicle stock had exible-fuel capability. A national-level model of the ethanol supply chain allows examining the costs of infrastructure required to enable consumption of the volumes ethanol projected in RFS-2. Not only is more E85 retail capacity needed but retailers must be able to sell E85 at enough of a discount to make it attractive to consumers. Consideration of these issues will help inform the choice between waiting for a drop-in biofuel which could be used in the gasoline-based infrastructure and investing in retail capacity able to handle blends with higher ethanol content.},

The positive modeling approach avoids assumptions of substantial rationality, and focuses on how individuals actually make departure time choices. The proposed analyticalframework theorizeshowheterogeneous users learn time-dependent travel conditions, accumulate relevant spatial-temporal knowledge, form subjective beliefs,search for alternative departure times under sufficiently large stimuli, and adjust departure timesbased on subjective beliefs and decision rules. Following the theoretical framework,we specifylearning with Bayesian methods, empirically estimates search start and stopping conditions that vary among users, and empirically derivesearch and decision rules from a joint reveal/stated-preference survey dataset. The resulting quantitative model is demonstrated with a numerical example. To enable the application of the proposed positive modeling approach, a low-cost and practical memory-recall survey method has also been developed to provide necessary behavioral process data for model estimation and validation. In addition, the individual-level departure time choice model is ready for real-world applications, and can be integrated with microscopic traffic simulation, simulation-based dynamic traffic assignment, and/or activity/agent-based demand models.},

EPA has released a 3 public draft on " Transportation Conformity Guidance for Quantitative Hot-spot Analyses in 4 PM 2.5 and PM 10 Nonattainment and Maintenance Areas " , in which MOVES and EMFAC in 5 California are designated as the official mobile emission models. The official air quality models 6 are AERMOD and CAL3QHCR. The public draft released by EPA requires detailed handling of 7 emission and air quality data which are new for state DOTs and MPOs. This paper showcases the 8 use of MOVES and AERMOD for transportation conformity analysis with priority given to the 9 setup and running of the models with their respective data inputs in accordance with EPA's 10 transportation conformity guidance. Details of the input data preparation for MOVES and 11 AERMOD, MOVES emission factor generation, sensitivity test results from MOVES, and 12 importance of interagency consultation process are presented. This showcase is an extended 13 effort for better understanding the conformity process and setting up the models.

Low-income households are less likely to own cars and more likely to travel 3 by modes other than the automobile.

In this study we, first, use data from 5 the 2009 National Household Travel Survey to examine the relationship between income and 6 automobile ownership and the role of automobile ownership in explaining personal miles 7 traveled. We then examine whether these determinants vary by income group. We find that 8 low-income adults rapidly convert rising income into additional mobility, at faster rates than for 9 higher-income adults. Further, automobile ownership increases personal miles traveled for all 10 adults; however, it is particularly influential in increasing the travel of low-income adults. 11 Households accrue greater marginal benefits by moving from zero to one vehicle rather than by 12 purchasing additional vehicles when they already own a vehicle. The findings underscore the 13 importance of automobile ownership to the mobility of low-income households and suggest an 14 important role for policy in facilitating low-income auto ownership.},

Knowing that traffic sensors cover only a fraction of the road network, we 32 investigate how to estimate traffic volumes on arcs that are not covered by sensors. By exploiting the 33 spatial properties and the topology of a network, we derive a microstate model that can be used to estimate 34 these traffic volumes. Based on entropy maximization, we present a microstate surrogate for competing 35 techniques such as traffic assignment, and algebraic method or topological approach in estimating traffic 36 flow. Being an entropy model, it also has advantage over these competing technique in terms of the 37 prerequisite information required to enable the model. Being a microstate rather than a steady-state model, 38 it executes fast enough to allow real-time estimation of traffic flow. By covering the entire network flow 39 this way with only a limited number of sensors, it will help in better driver routing decisions and traffic 40 management tactics while being cognizant of today's budgetary constraints facing operating agencies. The 41 algorithm has been tested successfully in Little Rock, Arkansas and in a controlled experiment with a 42 randomly generated 100 Nodes/522 arcs network. 43 Keywords: Spatial inference, traffic estimation, entropy maximization, golden-section search. 44 45 46 1. INTRODUCTION 47 48 Due to the extensive instrumentation requirement, complete coverage of traffic information in a road 49 network requires high infrastructural and operational cost. This leaves a complete coverage of the network 50 practically unachievable in agencies operating under a tight budget. Lack of sensor coverage for real-time 51 traffic information, however, has impeded the deployment of many ATIS applications. This in turn has 52 inspired research on optimal placement of sensors by Liu et al. [1], Ban et al. [2], Kianfar and Edara [3], 53 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Those foreground objects contain both pedestrian and non-pedestrian urban objects, verification by a cascaded classifier is conducted. However, segmentation result sometime contains error such as shrunk or inflated Region of Interest (ROI). We improved our system by implementing two types of feedback algorithm for ROI correction using the Kalman filter and by combining the results of motion classifier and HOG classifier. We confirmed that those ROI Corrections help the system decrease the false negative rate and extract highly accurate pedestrian trajectory. We expect that the trajectory could be used as a useful source for measuring the possibility of collision with pedestrian.},

This paper presents eight negative binomial 5 models for estimating urban trail traffic using 1,020 mixed-mode daily traffic counts from active 6 infrared counters at six locations in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Our models include up to 11 7 independent variables that represent socio-demographic, built environment, weather, and 8 temporal characteristics. A general model includes all independent variables and can be used to 9 estimate traffic at locations where traffic has not been monitored or for newly proposed trails. A 10 six-location model with dummy variables for each monitoring site rather than neighborhood 11 specific variables can be used to estimate traffic at existing locations when counts from monitors 12 are not available and for evaluation and other planning purposes. Six trail-specific models are 13 appropriate for estimating variation in traffic in response to variations in weather and day of 14 week at each monitoring location.

This effect is modeled with the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD). The optimization proceeds in two steps. First, an analytic model defines the optimal layout of surface transit networks according to the time headway, stop spacing, line spacing, and network size variables. Then, the average travel time of the traffic network is evaluated with the MFD curve corresponding to the former transit network length. The full methodology has been implemented in the city of Barcelona, Spain. MFD was calibrated in the city's central district by means of traffic microsimulation runs.

The merit of the 3-dimensional highway design procedure is that it eliminates the need for the separate processing of horizontal and vertical alignments in which the horizontal alignment is first identified and a suitable vertical alignment is then fitted. This traditional two-stage process is subject to design inconsistencies due to the lack of the availability of the 3-D course of alignment right at the onset, especially from the drivers' perspective. Depending on the type of 3-D technique one may have to explore suitable mathematical functions to realistically represent the 3D alignments. For example, in the polynomial function approach the degree of polynomial functions is a critical determinant of the suitability of the developed 3-D course of the highway.},

This study proposes a framework for optimizing the driving range by minimizing the sum of battery price, electricity cost, and range limitation cost— referred to as the “range- related cost”— as a measurement of range anxiety. The objective function is linked to policy-relevant parameters, including battery cost and price markup, battery utilization, charging infrastructure availability, vehicle efficiency, electricity and gasoline prices, household vehicle ownership, daily driving patterns, discount rate, and perceived vehicle lifetime. Qualitative discussion of the framework and its empirical application to a sample (N=36664) representing new car drivers in the United States is included. The quantitative results strongly suggest that ranges of less than 100 miles are likely to be more popular in the BEV market for a long period of time. The average optimal range among US drivers is found to be largely inelastic. Still, battery cost reduction significantly drives BEV demand toward longer ranges, whereas improvement in the charging infrastructure is found to significantly drive BEV demand toward shorter ranges. The bias of a single-range assumption and the effects of range optimization and diversification in reducing such biases are both found to be significant.},

It is not clear why the estimated impact is stronger or weaker in certain urban areas, and how effective a proposed land use change/policy will be in changing certain travel behavior. This knowledge gap has made it difficult for decision makers to evaluate land use plans and policies according to their impact on vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and consequently their impact on congestion mitigation, energy conservation, and pollution and green house gas emission reduction.    $\backslash$n$\backslash$nThis research has several objectives: (1) Re-examine the effects of built-environment factors on travel behavior, in particular VMT in five U.S. metropolitan areas grouped into four case study areas; (2) Develop consistent models in all case study areas with the same model specification and datasets to enable direct comparisons; (3) Identify factors such as existing land use characteristics and land use policy decision-making processes that may explain the different impacts of built environment on VMT in different urban areas; and (4) Provide a prototype tool for government agencies and decision-makers to estimate the impact of proposed land use changes on VMT.     $\backslash$n$\backslash$nThe four case study areas include Seattle, WA; Richmond-Petersburg and Norfolk-Virginia Beach, VA; Baltimore, MD; and Washington DC.

However, the effectiveness of land use plans and policies encouraging these types of land developments is different both across case study areas and within the same case study area. We have identified several factors that potentially influence the connection between built environment shifts and VMT changes including urban area size, existing built environment characteristics, transit service coverage and quality, and land use decision-making processes.},

Using the proposed models, the effects of changing domestic air travel demand in the United States over the years on optimal hub location are evaluated. Different levels of indifference areas of the optimal hub location are also analyzed in order to investigate the sensitivity of the studied logistic problem to the hub location. It is found that none of the existing major airline hubs fall within the 5{\%} indifference area. However, the 10{\%} indifference areas include Chicago, Atlanta, and Dallas, homes to United, Delta, and American Airlines, respectively. The impact of a competitive airline network structure with regard to the hub location is also studied. This study addresses a gap in the airline service planning literature on modeling the optimal market for an airline in a competitive structure with multiple airlines and already located hubs. Results from the continuous model can also provide guidelines for constructing solutions to the more detailed, but computationally heavy discrete design models. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {19 In recent years, urban policies intended to reduce presumed negative externalities associated with 20 suburbanization have focused on reducing auto travel by manipulating urban form to reduce trip 21 frequencies and travel distances. In addition, it is assumed that shorter distances provide added 22 opportunities to link more destinations in a single trip chain. The effectiveness of sustainable 23 transport strategies, however, provides mixed evidence. This is so because the research is based 24 on ad-hoc empirical specifications, lacking a formal behavioral framework that considers travel 25 the result of activities planned and executed through space and time. To assess these 26 shortcomings, we present an analytical model of the interaction between urban form and the 27 demand for transit travel, in which residential location, transit demand, and the spatial dispersion 28 of non-work activities are endogenously determined. Theoretically derived hypotheses are 29 empirically tested using a dataset that integrates travel and land-use data. We find that 30 population density does not have a large impact on transit demand and that the effect decreases 31 when residential location is endogenous. When population density and residential location are 32 jointly endogenous, the elasticity of transit demand with respect to walking distance to a transit 33 station decreases by about 33 percent over the case in which these variables are treated an 34 exogenous. We find that households living farther from work use less transit and that trip-35 chaining behavior explains this finding. Households living far from work engage in complex trip 36 chains and have, on average, a more dispersed activity space, which requires reliance on more 37 flexible modes of transportation. Therefore, reducing the spatial allocation of non-work 38 activities and improving transit accessibility at and around subcenters would increase transit 39 demand. Similar effects can be obtained by increasing the presence of retail locations in 40 proximity to transit-oriented households. Although focused on transit demand, the framework 41 can be easily generalized to study other forms of travel. 42 43},

abstract = {After the construction of a pavement system, deterioration occurs because of traffic loading and weathering action and results in the formation of various types of distresses and an increase in pavement roughness. "Roughness" can be defined as irregularities of pavement surface that affect driver safety and increase user costs, including fuel consumption, repair and maintenance, depreciation, and tire costs. In this study, pavement roughness was predicted with the use of the newly released Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide for levels of initial roughness condition. Four alternative maintenance and rehabilitation (M{\&}R) strategies were used to estimate the life-cycle cost of pavement over a 35-year analysis period. Various categories of user costs were calculated on the basis of different cost models and from data reported in the literature. From this analysis, pavement roughness was found to affect user costs dramatically. A comparison was made between agency investment and user costs related to pavement roughness. The results of this analysis showed that agency costs were small compared with roughness-related user costs over the life of the pavement (less than 4{\%} of total costs) and that agency investment in increased rehabilitation activities could have a 50-fold return in the form of reduced user costs. A strong case is made for the critical importance of investing in enhanced M{\&}R activities to reduce pavement roughness. This case is strengthened by hypothesized benefits in pavement system sustainability through reduced user fuel costs and reduced tire wear and increased remaining life of pavement.},

abstract = {47 Access to transit stations is a critical, but often overlooked, aspect of transit planning. Few 48 agencies have a station access planning process or develop station access plans, yet realizing the 49 benefits of infrastructure investment in fixed-guideway transit inherently depends on efficiently 50 getting passengers to the station. Agency decisions explicitly affect the ability and likelihood for 51 passengers to access the station by various access modes. For instance, the provision of auto 52 parking allows users to drive and park at the station. However, if no parking is provided, riders 53 must access the station another way. 54 Many factors determine the number of passengers boarding a transit service at a given 55 station. A primary consideration is the quality and efficiency of the service; that is, does it 56 provide a timely and direct connection between one's origin and destination. But ridership can 57 vary widely even when comparing stations in the same transit system or on the same line. 58 Characteristics of the station area and access provisions at the station also influence a traveler's 59 decision to board the service at a given station. 60 Recent research conducted by the Transit Cooperative Research Program developed a 61 guidebook for planning for access to public transport stations. The research included 62 development of a typology of stations and presents improved methods for conducting station 63 access planning.

abstract = {6,033 words + 7 figures + 1 table = 8033 words ABSTRACT This study is based on the morning commute bottleneck model introduced by Vickrey (1). The contribution of this work is in showing an analytical comparison of the efficiency and equity of four pricing strategies when users can choose to use car or public transit, and when they travel. Considering bottleneck demand that is temporally distributed, closed form solutions are presented for the case of a Z-shaped wish curve when a population of N otherwise identical individuals wish to pass the bottleneck with capacity µ at a constant rate $\lambda$ during the rush. The paper includes a theoretical analysis following Vickrey's morning commute problem (1). This is followed by an illustrative numerical example. The results show that although optimal time-dependent pricing is the most efficient strategy, there is a trade-off in equity for commuters. Analysis of two, more feasible and implementable, alternative pricing strategies shows that there is a trade-off between equity and efficiency. Even with technical and political constraints for time-dependent pricing, there are efficient ways to price cars and transit that can be even more equitable than system-optimal solutions. Furthermore, alternative pricing strategies may be preferred if the goal for a pricing program is not strictly to maximize efficiency. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

However, implementation of such 7 strategies may request a large amount of manpower and resources, which often exceeds the 8 limited budget of the emergency managing agencies. The problem to be addressed in this paper 9 is the lack of an advanced model in literature to locate the optimal set of intersections in the 10 evacuation network for implementing uninterrupted flow and signal control strategies 11 respectively, which can yield the maximum evacuation operational efficiency and the best 12 utilization of available budget. 13 A bi-level network optimization model, proposed in response to such needs, will contribute 14 to addressing the following critical questions that have long challenged transportation authorities 15 during emergency planning, namely: Given the topology of the evacuation network, and 16 evacuation demand distribution, and a limited budget, 1) how many intersections to implement 17 the signals and interrupted flow strategies, respectively; 2) what are their most appropriate 18 locations; and 3) how to properly design turning restriction plans at those uninterrupted flow 19 intersections? Such information is critical for emergency managers to allocate the limited 20 resources to the most appropriate control points. Plans generated from the proposed model by a 21 heuristic solution approach are evaluated under various scenarios with different evacuation 22 demands and budget constraints.

abstract = {A key assumption for the successful deployment of mesoscopic transportation network simulation to assess network behavior and performance at a future planning horizon is that the parameters of the constituent macroscopic traffic stream models remain stable at relatively long planning time scales. However, no research has been undertaken to test this assumption systematically. Assessing the validity of this implicit assumption requires rigorous analysis based on empirical traffic data covering a long period. Extensive freeway management systems have now been in place long enough to provide these empirical data. A method to investigate the issue of temporal stability of freeway macroscopic traffic stream models rigorously with 15 years of traffic data from the London Orbital Motorway is presented and implemented. Two forms of macroscopic traffic stream models, namely, a two-regime and a three-regime model form, were studied in this research. With a 13-week, outlier-corrected moving window sampling method and maximum likelihood parameter estimation, time series were developed for the model parameters. The temporal stability characteristics and correlation properties of the fitted parameters are analyzed and discussed. The parameters were found to be relatively stable over time and did not exhibit statistically significant seasonal correlation. Parameter variability was found to be governed primarily by the relative scatter of heavily congested observations and how well the heavily congested regime was represented in the individual data samples. Therefore, modelers should ensure that traffic stream model calibration data sets are free from outliers and well distributed across the model regimes.},

Prior comparisons of biodiesel and ultra-low-sulfur diesel emissions, recent changes in emission standards applicable to HDDVs, and typical emission control technologies used in these vehicles are reviewed. The study methodology includes field measurements with a portable emission measurement system and related instruments and sensors for five HDDVs operated in normal service by professional drivers on multiple round-trip routes within North Carolina. Duty cycles and emission rates are quantified on the basis of the manifold absolute pressure, which is an indicator of engine load. Variability in engine load for each observed round trip is quantified on the basis of the cumulative distribution function of normalized manifold absolute pressure. The effect of variability in duty cycles on fuel-based emission rates for nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and particulate matter is evaluated. Comparisons are made for emissions of three trucks operated on B20 biodiesel and ultra-low-sulfur diesel. Furthermore, comparisons of five trucks with model years ranging from 1999 to 2010 illustrate the impact of different emission standards and emission control technologies on real-world emission rates. A key finding is that relative comparisons pertaining to fuels and technologies are robust to variability in observed duty cycles.},

However, the existing literature has mainly focused on local and neighborhood characteristics of the built environment, and little is known about the unique or relative influence of the metropolitan-level built environment. In this empirical analysis, an extensive database is used for six major metropolitan areas in the United States to employ a multilevel mixed-effect model that highlights the impact of built environment characteristics on travel behavior at different scales. The findings show that changes in built environment measures, not only at local and neighborhood levels but also at larger metropolitan and regional levels, could be influential in changing people's travel behavior. Specifically, the promotion of a compact, mixed-use built environment with a well-connected street network could help to reduce VMT and thus provide better solutions to transportation-related issues such as traffic congestion, air pollution, and high energy consumption.},

abstract = {In many American cities, the taxicab is an important but frequently overlooked public transportation mode and represents a significant opportunity to provide mobility in many places where conventional mass transit cannot do so cost-effectively. This paper investigates the taxicab and its role as a form of public transportation and uses the taxicab system in Boston, Massachusetts, to study the mode's function in the city as well as its relationship to other forms of transportation. The central inquiry of this paper is when and where the taxicab operates as a complement or a substitute to Boston's mass transit system and which factors appear to affect its fulfillment of each role. Taxicab activity in Boston is analyzed with trip-level data recorded for Boston taxicabs during the past 2 years, mapping of taxicab activity, and specification of regression models that illuminate significant relationships between the taxicab, transit access, and other characteristics of the urban environment. Evidence suggests that the taxicab acts as both a mass transit substitute and complement in Boston and that this tendency varies by transit line and time of day. These models are also used to infer the existence of unmet demand for taxicab service.},

abstract = {Electric bikes (e-bikes) are increasingly common in China, but are relatively rare in the U.S. To further understand the potential market for and use of e-bikes in the U.S., this paper presents findings from interviews with 28 e-bike owners in the Portland, Oregon region. The interviews revealed several possible demographic markets for e-bikes that could expand the overall share of the population bicycling: women, older adults, and people with physical limitations. In addition, owners noted the ability to travel with relative ease longer distances and over hills and to arrive at a destination, such as work, less sweaty or tired than with a regular bicycle. These features may overcome some of the common barriers to bicycling. Most of the e-bike owners interviewed were using their e-bikes to substitute for travel by either human-powered bicycles or traditional motor vehicles (cars, trucks, etc.). Therefore, the e-bike should be viewed as one option to address concerns over private vehicles contributing to health problems related to inactivity and pollution and other public policy problems. Whether or not e-bikes need specific policies to increase their adoption requires further research. The potential for conflict between e-bike and regular bike riders due to speed differentials is a concern. Whether speed differentials will pose a significant problem in the future will depend not only on the extent of adoption of e-bikes but the characteristics of the riders.},

The leading contender is that of cumulative prospect theory, which allows the specific modeling of decision under the two forms of uncertainty, risk and ambiguity. Therefore, the intent of this paper is to provide a review of traditional decision theories based in rationality and contemporary thinking on the use of emerging behavioral theories as applied to travelers' route-choice behavior. Some important theories are described, followed by a broad, but by no means exhaustive, discussion of pertinent studies. Then three choice scenarios are used to illustrate the application of a behavioral choice model versus a rational choice model. We also propose an analytic framework that when applied to travelers' route-choice addresses the errors of traditional models.},

abstract = {Accessibility to a transit service is a key factor in a traveler's choice on transportation mode and use of public transportation, where service areas are commonly used to visualize accessibility to transit stations. While modeling of service areas for pedestrians has been widely discussed in the transportation literature, the analysis of bicycle service areas to access transit services is still relatively unexplored. However, for the design of mobility hubs, which are major transit access points, better knowledge of bicycle service areas is essential for the appropriate planning of bicycle infrastructure nearby. While presumed cycling distances to such hubs are somewhere between one and two miles in long term range planning documents, a more accurate assessment of bicycle access distances is necessary. This paper uses two on-board surveys from the Los Angeles and Atlanta regions to derive cycling distances to transit stations. Results show that the presumed 1-2 mile (1600-3200m) radius is a good match with observed distances for the Atlanta region, but that it underestimates observed cycling distances to transit services in the Los Angeles area with a 4358m average cycling distance. A linear regression model that estimates cycling distances to transit station was developed which shows that cycling distance is affected by household characteristics, structure of the street and transit network along the route and near the transit station, and time of the day. Variable service areas generated on the model results can be used to identify the appropriate radius around mobility hubs.},

The model predicted 85 th percentile approach speeds, 85 th percentile curve speeds, and average curve speed. The resulting values did not statistically significantly differ from their measured values based on a 95 percent confidence interval. Furthermore, the model generated revised advisory speeds that were all within 10 mph or less of the measured average curve speeds.

Overall, some progress has been made in representing 9 non-motorized travel in regional models. For example, a recent review of model documentation 10 suggested two-thirds of the large MPOs with trip-based models incorporate non-motorized travel 11 to some extent. 12 This paper discusses and summarizes modeling approaches, including variables and data used, 13 data issues, and lessons learned; summarizes major issues and challenges facing the modelers in 14 incorporating non-motorized travel in regional travel demand models; and makes 15 recommendations for future model improvements. Recent examples representing different 16 approaches to modeling non-motorized travel in regional models are presented. A variety of 17 pros and cons are discussed to each approach, including different data needs and different 18 capabilities to evaluate policies and planning scenarios. When deciding on the approach to 19 modeling non-motorized travel, agencies need to have a full assessment of the data requirements, 20 model development efforts, and policy sensitivities desired. Further enhancements can be made 21 in more refined zone systems and more accurate measurement of variables in the trip-based 22 modeling framework, while the activity-based modeling approach offers more promising 23 potentials.

However, because most car-following models assume that vehicles could keep a safety distance away to avoid crash related conflicts; they are not capable to capture naturalistic driving behavior during safety-critical events. Also, vehicle detailed lateral maneuvering have not been simulated in most simulation software. The proposed methodology in this paper focuses on establishing a traffic state-action mapping rule to simulate real driver actions including risky behavior that a driver would take during safety critical events instead of the predefined actions by car-following models. To analyze individual driver characteristics and extract driving behavior rules, a fuzzy rule based neural network is constructed with the objective of presenting driver action rules under associated traffic states. A special training approach Neuro-Fuzzy Actor Critic Reinforcement Learning (NFACRL) is proposed as a methodology to train an agent driver simulator. Vehicle longitudinal and lateral actions are estimated and used as output of this model. The simulated vehicle actions are compared with naturalistic data.},

The results indicated that the volume-adjustment factors have a non-trivial impact on the accuracy of the outputs.

In this research, we develop statistical models to analyze the relationship between air quality nonattainment designation and VMT between 1966 and 2004 based on observed data. These models employ different statistical methods, including hypothesis testing and simultaneous equations. Findings from these statistical models and datasets are consistent, and suggest there is a statistically significant negative correlation between nonattainment designation and VMT/VMT growth. For instance, the simultaneous equation model in this research, suggests that if a nonattainment area and an attainment area that are similar in all other aspects (population composition, socio-economics, urbanization, fuel price, vehicle stock, etc.) are compared, the VMT in the nonattainment area will be 1.80{\%} less than that in the attainment area in the short run, and 7.61{\%} less in the long run. While these results show strong statistical evidence that efforts in reducing VMT in nonattainment areas have been successful, future research should be conducted to attribute the VMT reduction effects to specific policy instruments for decision-making (e.g. the Congestion Management and Air Quality Improvement program, the conformity regulation in the transportation planning process, etc.). ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

Transportation agencies worldwide and across the US are increasingly using PPPs as a mechanism to deliver infrastructure. An analysis of international experience conducted for this research shows that countries with relatively more extensive experience in PPPs than the US have devised sophisticated methodologies to value and manage risk exposure in the context of value for money (VfM) and optimum allocation of project risks. On the other hand, a review of major US transportation PPP transactions reveals that US states currently lack a well-documented methodology to quantify and incorporate the cost of public sector risk into the evaluation of PPP projects. This analysis indicates that US transportation agencies could significantly benefit from implementing more systematic approaches to incorporate the cost of risk in the evaluation of PPP projects. The framework proposed in this research was developed as a tool to facilitate this process. It is based upon successful international experience with VfM analyses and provides a step-by-step methodology to quantify risk exposure and facilitate the estimation of the risk-adjusted costs of delivering a project as a PPP. The methodology is based on the concept of contingent liabilities and uses option pricing techniques to quantify public sector risk exposure. The application of the methodology is demonstrated using two US transportation PPP case studies.},

However, these 4 control problems usually are very expensive to obtain exact optimal solutions for online signal control. In 5 this paper, three heuristic solution algorithms, (the Dive-and-fix method, the Ratio-cluster method, and 6 the Cumulative-departure method) are specially designed to solve the traffic signal control problem 7 formulated as a 0-1 mixed-integer linear programming problem with cell transmission model. These three 8 solution algorithms are based on two fundamental approaches. First, the 0-1 mixed-integer linear 9 program is solved via linear relaxation (LR). Second, the non-integer solutions obtained from the LR are 10 converted into the integer solutions by taking advantage of the underlying physical mechanism embedded 11 in the LR solutions that lead to the optimal signal control. In particular, proportional capacities for 12 different approaches and the cumulative exit flow at each intersection obtained from the LR solutions are 13 utilized to determine green time allocation for each approach. It is demonstrated that the near-optimal 14 solutions obtained with these algorithms are very close to the optimal solutions under both uncongested 15 and congested traffic conditions.},

The question of how to allocate the funds on a local level is often asked but 29 there is little documentation existing on the subject. The issue becomes increasingly complex 30 the more agencies that exist within a UZA. Local officials within the UZAs must develop 31 methods of allocating funds that satisfy the desires of each of the regional stakeholders. The 32 nature in which metropolitan areas grow leads to multiple transit agencies existing within the 33 urbanized area; thus desiring access to urbanized area formula funds. 34 35 This paper identifies seven complex metropolitan areas across the United States each having 36 multiple Section 5307 fund recipients.

abstract = {The vehicle mileage fee is a strong candidate to mitigate the fund- ing gap in surface transportation caused by the declining purchasing power of fuel tax revenue, the emergence of hybrid and electric vehi- cles, and more restrictive corporate average fuel economy standards. This study computes the vehicle mileage fee on the basis of the marginal cost of travel and internalizes various externalities such as congestion, infrastructure deterioration, pollution emissions, and greenhouse gas emissions. Multiple regression models and discrete choice models are developed on the basis of the 2009 National Household Travel Sur- vey data to analyze the impacts of the proposed marginal-cost vehicle mileage fee on vehicle ownership, fuel efficiency, vehicle miles trav- eled, energy consumption, emissions, and equity. In addition, the sen- sitivity of these impacts to exogenous fuel price volatility is estimated quantitatively. Results show that with consideration of all aforemen- tioned externalities, the marginal-cost vehicle mileage fee by vehicle make and model would range from 7.7 to 9.1 cents/mi, which is much higher than the per mile equivalent of the current fuel taxes (about 1.2 cents/mi). Household vehicle use behavior is much more sensitive to the marginal-cost vehicle mileage fee than vehicle ownership deci- sions, with a significant (27.1{\%}) reduction in vehicle miles traveled, but a minor increase in vehicle fuel efficiency (up to 4.2{\%}). Nevertheless, the marginal-cost vehicle mileage fee can reduce energy consumption and pollution or greenhouse gas emissions by about a fourth. These sustainability benefits are even more significant if fuel prices continue to increase. Without consideration of the benefits from revenue redis- tribution, lower-income households, as expected, would be hurt more than higher-income households (1.3{\%}).},

abstract = {According to the previous studies, path-based algorithms are the most efficient methods for solving the traffic assignment problem (TAP). They iteratively decompose the problem in separate subproblems, one for each Origin-Destination (OD) pair, and solve each of the subproblems in the space of path flows. To store the information of the paths, they need more memory than Link or Origin based algorithms. Nevertheless, in the two past decades, researchers became more interested in them because of their quick convergence rate as well as the recent advances in computer's memory. One of the well-known path-based algorithms is the Linearization Algorithm (LA) that has been derived from the complementarity formulation of TAP. In LA the solution of each subproblem is approximated with the solution of a sequence of Linear Complementarity Problems (LCPs) using a general pivot method. In this paper a new version of linearization algorithm is introduced in which the LCPs are solved using a Gradient Projection (GP) based method. The computational experiments on two large scale networks from the literature are also presented to evaluate the new LA against the original one. Some other existing path-based algorithms for TAP are also coded and applied on the test networks, providing insights into their performance relative to LAs. Those are an algorithm based on Bertsekas GP method, an algorithm based on Rosen's GP method, and an accelerated Frank-Wolfe algorithm. Moreover, an OD filtering strategy is applied to accelerate all the alternative algorithms. The numerical results show that this strategy is very effective.},

abstract = {With the advent of ubiquitous mobile sensing and self-tracking groups, travel demand researchers have a unique opportunity to combine these two developments to improve the state of the art of travel diary collection. While the use of mobile phones and the inference of travel diaries from GPS and sensor data allows for lower-cost, longer surveys, we show how the self-tracking movement can be leveraged to interest people in participating over a longer period of time. By compiling personalized feedback and statistics on participants' travel habits during the survey, we can provide the participants with direct value in exchange for their data collection effort. Moreover, the feedback can be used to provide statistics that influence people's awareness of the footprint of their transportation choices and their attitudes, with the goal of moving them toward more sustainable transportation behavior. We describe an experiment that we conducted with a small sample in which this approach was implemented. The participants allowed us to track their travel behavior over the course of two weeks, and they were given access to a website they were presented with their trip history, statistics and peer comparisons. By means of an attitudinal survey that we asked the participants to fill out before and after the tracking period, we determined that this led to a measurable change in people's awareness of their transportation footprint and to a positive shift in their attitudes toward sustainable transportation. eScholarship},

Using the unique capabilities of the DTW algorithm, this paper attempts to examine driver heterogeneity in car-following behavior, as well as the driver's heterogeneous situation-dependent behavior within a trip, based on the calibrated time-varying response times and critical jam spacing. The standard DTW algorithm is enhanced to address a number of estimation challenges in this specific application, and a numerical experiment is presented with vehicle trajectory data extracted from the Next Generation Simulation (NGSIM) project for demonstration purposes. The DTW algorithm is shown to be a reasonable method for processing large vehicle trajectory datasets, but requires significant data reduction to produce reasonable results when working with high resolution vehicle trajectory data. Additionally, singularities present an interesting match solution set to potentially help identify changing driver behavior; however, they must be avoided to reduce analysis complexity.},

abstract = {1 2 Modeling travel time reliability requires characterizing travel time distributions. Two key 3 statistics commonly used to describe a distribution are the mean and standard deviation, with 4 one depicting the central tendency and the other describing the dispersion. Although the mean 5 travel time is easier to measure and predict easy, the corresponding standard deviation is 6 usually hard to obtain due to the insufficiency of individual trip data. Building on seminal 7 insight that goes back to Herman and Prigogine's kinetic theory, this paper explores a robust 8 characterization of travel time variability which provides for a near linear relation between the 9 standard deviation of travel time per unit distance and the corresponding mean value. The 10 paper utilizes simulation generated vehicle trajectory data from three road networks to explore 11 this relationship. 12 Based on multi-scale and multi-level analysis, large amount of data show that these two 13 quantities are highly positively correlated, i.e., the dispersion of the distribution of individual 14 travel time per unit distance will increase with increasing value of the mean travel time per unit 15 distance. Furthermore, regression models and statistical testing indicate that this relation is 16 linear or near-linear. The relation is also validated using GPS probe data from the Seattle area. 17 This relation provides a robust basis for predicting the standard deviation per unit distance 18 when the mean value is known, and hence for characterizing reliability of travel in a network in 19 strategic and operational studies. 20 21},

abstract = {The authors examine the relationships between environmental factors (neighborhood characteristics and community-based transportation services) and the degree of perceived and functional independence in travel for a sample of persons with disabilities residing in urban and suburban U.S. locations with a wide variety of neighborhood conditions. Perceived ability is a self-reported measure on a Likert-type ordinal scale, while the functional ability scale reflects the “Mode of Transportation” and “Shopping” aspects of the Lawton-Brody Instrument Activities of Daily Living scale. Neighborhood characteristics examined are walkability, population density, percent owner-occupied housing and age and racial/ethnic diversity, while community-based transportation services considered are volunteer driver services, van-based demand response programs and taxi services that are operated either by community organizations, senior care centers or transit agencies. Using cluster analysis, the authors first cluster persons with disabilities into three homogeneous groups based on their sociodemographic, health and disability status. Results from ordered probit models that start with an assessment of endogeneity between the independence scales and the environmental factors and controls for cluster membership, indicate that neighborhood characteristics and community-based transportation services interact in complex ways, and that while neighborhood characteristics are important, they become less important in explaining perceived and functional independence when some of the community transportation factors are introduced. The results imply that communities may support persons with disabilities by pursuing planning and programmatic activities that enhance both aspects of environmental factors - neighborhood characteristics that support an independent and active life, as well as specialized community-based transportation services.},

abstract = {Under transportation network supply and demand uncertainty, travel time reliability emerges from nonlinear interactions among numerous travelers who are driven by self-interest, learn and adapt in changing situations, and therefore can be modeled as an emergent network property. This paper proposes a novel theoretical framework for the study of complexity regarding travel time reliability on the basis of empirically-derived individual decision rules, and develops an agent-based evolutionary model for travel time reliability analysis. Findings show that actual route choice behaviors related to network reliability are often non-optimal, and that these behaviors themselves are important determinants of travel time reliability under network supply and demand uncertainty. While many travelers search for alternative routes under uncertainty, few travelers actually change routes. Route choice rules employed by travelers can successfully improve travel time reliability in most tested uncertainty scenarios, but they do not necessarily reduce absolute travel time. While reducing demand uncertainty improves travel time reliability, it is not always the case when network supply uncertainty is reduced. The proposed model can be applied to improve transportation operations and planning under uncertainty and to analyze the impact of traveler information systems on individual travel behavior and network performance. It can also serve as an empirically-estimated router for microscopic traffic simulators or act as a behavioral assignment algorithm for activity-based travel demand models.},

Tailpipe PN concentrations emitted from a conventional and hybrid 2010 Toyota Camry were quantified during 1 Hz sampling over 44 replicate runs of a 32-mile route in Chittenden County, Vermont using the Total On-board Tailpipe Emissions Measurement System. This study is the first to compare hybrid and conventional vehicle cold start emissions as well as quantify PN concentrations arising from hybrid engine restarts under a range of real-world driving ambient temperature (-10 to 41 C) and road grade (-9 to 12{\%}) conditions. Cold start events averaged 9 seconds in duration, with total raw PN concentrations between 9.2E4 and 4.5E7 {\#}/cm3. Hybrid engine restart events were characterized over 25 runs. The hybrid ICE was off 20{\%} to 50{\%} of the total run time, with corresponding ICE restarts ranging between 42 and 118 events per run. The number of restarts increased at higher ambient temperature, but the PN concentration range per individual restart event did not vary. The mean hybrid restart total PN concentration was 4 times lower than those of hybrid cold starts. Hybrid cold start PN concentrations were on average 10{\%} lower than those the conventional vehicle. Over the entire route, the mean hybrid PN concentration was 4 times higher than the conventional PN concentration.},

abstract = {To handle passenger " strategies " in public transit route choice behavior, the concept of a hyperpath was introduced by Nguyen and Pallottino (1,2) and Spiess and Florian (3), especially in frequency-based transit service environment. This model has been widely used for planning transit services, and hyperpaths are now applied in various areas beyond the public transit area. Following basic hyperpath properties, we propose a hyperpath representing more specific passenger behaviors on a transit schedule-based network. Above all, we introduce a link-based time-expanded (LBTE) transit schedule network in which each link represents a scheduled vehicle trip (or trip segment) with departure time and travel time (or arrival time) between two consecutive stops. The proposed LBTE network reduces the effort to build a transit schedule-based network, since the network is expanded using scheduled links. Second, we propose a link-based representation of a hypergraph which is directly integrated with the LBTE network, maintaining the existing hyperpath model properties. Third, we incorporate transit passenger behavior for transfers in the link-based hyperpath. We also demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed hyperpath model. The proposed models are applied on a test network and real transit network represented with Google's General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS).},

abstract = {Rationing policies, including vehicle ownership quota and vehicle usage restrictions, have been implemented in several megaregions to address congestion and other negative transportation externalities. However, no model is available in the literature that allows direct comparison of these rationing policies. To bridge this gap, this study develops an analytical framework for analyzing and comparing transportation rationing policies, which consists of a mathematical model of joint household vehicle ownership and usage decisions and welfare analysis methods based on compensating variation and consumer surplus. Under the assumptions of homogenous users and single time period, this study finds that vehicle usage rationing performs better when relatively small percentages of users (i.e. low rationing ratio) are rationed off the roads and when induced demand resulting from congestion mitigation is low. When the amount of induced demand ex-ceeds certain level, it is shown analytically that vehicle usage restrictions will always cause welfare losses. When the policy goal is to reduce vehicle travel by a large portion (i.e. high rationing ratio), the net social benefits of vehicle ownership quota rationing policy become more obvious. The optimal rationing ratios for both rationing policies can be determined by the model, and are influenced by network congestion and con-gestibility. Various policy implications, as well as future research directions, are also discussed. Rationing, vehicle ownership, vehicle usage, welfare analysis},

The goal of the study is twofold: to examine the impact of PHEV market 5 penetration and charging scenarios on the electric utilities and transmission grid and to estimate the 6 potential reductions in petroleum use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to PHEV miles traveled 7 mainly on grid electricity. We examined three charging scenarios: (1) PHEVs start recharging upon arrival 8 at home at the end of their last daily trip, (2) PHEVs complete the recharging of their batteries just before 9 the start of the first daily trip, and (3) PHEVs may have additional charging opportunity during daytime. 10 The three charging scenarios produce distinct hourly electric load profiles, with the opportunity charging 11 scenario resulting in a significant increase in load during the daytime. However, when we ran utility 12 dispatch simulations for these charging scenarios in the WECC area, they all exhibited similar marginal 13 generation mixes (dominated by the natural gas combined cycle technology) to satisfy the PHEV load, 14 and GHG emissions were within 2{\%} of each other. A well-to-wheel (WTW) analysis revealed that the 15 marginal generation mixes produce 45{\%} and 17{\%} less GHG emissions by PHEVs relative to those of 16 conventional gasoline internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) and gasoline hybrid electric vehicles 17 (HEVs), respectively.},

Building upon the recently proposed oversaturation severity index (OSI), we develop a simple forward-backward procedure (FBP) to manage oversaturation. The forward process aims to increase green time by searching available green time which can be taken from side streets or conflict phases, therefore improve the throughput for main streets; and the backward process is to gate the traffic at some intersections to prevent residual queues and downstream queue spill-back when available green time increase is insufficient. The FBP is designed for real-time implementation, although it is also applicable for off-line signal timing adjustment. The simulation tests for the network in the City of Pasadena, CA indicate that the FBP can effectively and efficiently reduce oversaturation.},

The analysis validates the central roles of Los Angeles, New York and 11 Houston, as key hubs of international freight flows. Most key port areas belong to megaregions, 12 while others are also geographically very close to megaregions.

abstract = {The petroleum refining process is a multi-product process, whereby crude oil is used to produce petroleum products ranging from gasoline and diesel to residual fuels and bitumen. In the paper, we derive the environmental implications from such a production process, and show that the introduction of biofuels affects the whole range petroleum products, not just the gasoline and diesel fuels. Because many of these petroleum products have significantly higher carbon content per gigajoule than gasoline and diesel, this can substantially impact the lifecycle analysis of biofuels. A numerical simulation is used to show that the introduction of biofuels can, in principle, reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of transportation fuels by 46-70{\%}.},

This paper presents key project factors that affect project time or cost performance during I/D highway construction projects. First, this research was performed by collecting transportation construction project data from the Florida Department of Transportation and evaluating the data using time and cost performance indices.

Microscopic details were extracted to yield 24. h worth of data including the onset time of yellow, the onset of red, vehicle location, and maneuvers after the onset of yellow. The difference in driver's stop/go decisions at the countdown and non-countdown timer installed intersections were investigated with binary-logistical regression analysis. By classifying the driving population into several distinct groups, this study further investigates the correlation between the countdown timer and two hazardous maneuvers: aggressive acceleration and conservative (abrupt) stopping, respectively. The descriptive results, though preliminary, indicate that the countdown timer can better assist drivers in their decision-making process and thus may reduce hazardous driving maneuvers during the phase transition period. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {1 The use of Bluetooth technology for gathering travel time and origin-destination data is becom-2 ing increasingly popular due to the large volume of data that can be gathered at a relatively low 3 cost. Currently, data collection can be limited by the relatively low detection efficiency of these 4 devices. This paper investigates the use of multiple antennas at Bluetooth monitoring stations to 5 improve the identification rate of passing vehicles. To test this approach, sensor array configura-6 tions with two to five Bluetooth readers were compared to a control consisting of a single reader 7 at the same site. The relative effectiveness of horizontal versus vertical separation of the readers 8 was also investigated. On average, a sensor array with two to five horizontally separated anten-9 nas detected between 56{\%} and 123{\%} more unique Bluetooth device MAC addresses than did the 10 single Bluetooth reader in the same location. Vertically separated antennas (two to four) resulted 11 in an average percent increase of 32{\%} to 52{\%} over the single antenna array, which is less than 12 that achieved by a comparable horizontal array. This indicates that there is significant potential 13 to increase the number of passing vehicles that can be identified using Bluetooth technology if 14 multi-reader arrays are used in lieu of the current practice of using a single antenna configura-15 tion. 16 17 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Three target compliance 3 dates were established. By January 22, 2012 an agency must implement an assessment and 4 management method. By January 22, 2015, signs that have been identified as failing, including 5 regulatory, warning, and post-mounted guide signs must be replaced. By January 22, 2018 the 6 replacement of non-compliant street signs and overhead guide signs is required. The objective of 7 this paper is to present a simple and effective method for sign retroreflectivity management. This 8 paper summarizes different sign retroreflectivity management strategies that are specified by 9 MUTCD and proposes a method for preliminary data collection to aid agencies in identifying, 10 classifying, and prioritizing compliance variation. Through the course of the study 1,433 signs 11 across Utah were surveyed and recorded. The study generated discrete compliance variance 12 classifications and quantitative variance measures. Variance classes were defined for sign 13 physical damage, retroreflective material orientation installation errors during fabrication, 14 exposure related degradation of retroreflectivity levels, and missing/incomplete sign installation 15 dates. The preliminary data collection led to recommendations for urgent action sign acceptance 16 inspection criteria changes and for a review of field procedures regarding damage repair. The 17 analysis effort led to a forecasting model to support development of a proactive retroreflectivity 18 management strategy addressing manufacturing specifications, acceptance inspection criteria, 19 and sign type specific lifecycle planning. The impact of the effort is the generation of baseline 20 tools for UDOT to use in budgeting to meet the compliance criteria in 2015 and 2018.},

abstract = {1 Short-term Traffic Flow Forecasting (STFF), the process of predicting future traffic conditions 2 based on historical and real-time observations is an essential aspect of Intelligent Transportation 3 Systems (ITS). The existing well-known algorithms used for STFF include time-series analysis 4 based techniques, among which the seasonal Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA) model 5 is one of the most precise method used in this field. In the existing literature, ARMA model 6 is mostly used in its univariate multiplicative form and the parameters of the model are mostly 7 estimated using a frequentist approach. The effectiveness of STFF in an urban transport network 8 can be fully be realized only in its multivariate form where traffic flow is predicted at multiple 9 sites simultaneously. In this paper, this concept in explored utilizing an Additive Seasonal Vector 10 ARMA (A-SVARMA) model to predict traffic flow in short-term future considering the spatial 11 dependency among multiple sites. The Dynamic Linear Model (DLM) representation of the A-12 SVARMA model has been used here to reduce the number of latent variables. The parameters 13 of the model have been estimated in a Bayesian inference framework employing a Markov Chain 14 Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling method. The serial correlation problem of MCMC sampling is 15 relaxed by using marginalization and adaptive MCMC. Multiple variations of A-SVARMA, such 16 as differenced process and mean process, have been studied to identify the most suitable prediction 17 methodology. The efficiency of the proposed prediction algorithm has been evaluated by modelling 18 real-time traffic flow observations available from a certain junction in the city-centre of Dublin.},

abstract = {Incident-induced traffic congestion is a major source of travel uncertainty. Sometimes multiple incidents occur sequentially because of queue back-ups, which substantially increase uncertainty. Such cascading incidents can be grouped into one event because of their spatial and temporal proximity. Events consisting of a primary and its secondary incidents are expected to have longer durations than single incidents and therefore to result in larger impacts on traffic. Though relatively rare, such cascading events are a major concern for transportation operations managers, and they are the focus of this paper. A unique event database, based on incident and road inventory data from Hampton Roads, Virginia, is created. Single-pair events (one primary and one secondary incident) and large-scale events (one primary and multiple secondary incidents) are identified and analyzed. "Event duration" is defined as the time elapsed from the notification of a primary incident to the departure of the last responder from the event scene after removal of the primary and associated secondary incidents. Events are further categorized as either contained or extended. If the primary incident is the last one being cleared during such an event, then it is a contained event; otherwise, it is an extended event. Correlates of contained and extended event durations are identified through a set of rigorous statistical models. The findings of this study provide knowledge that can aid in mitigating the impacts of cascading incidents.},

Our results indicate that customers experiencing competition (Cologne-Brussels) show a higher preference for competitive services than customers for whom competition is a purely hypothetical situation (Cologne-Amsterdam). Moreover, travellers show a status quo bias, i.e. a preference for the service provider on whose trains they were interviewed which partly results from the existence of switching costs. These findings regarding the status quo bias and switching costs complement previous studies on the outcome of intramodal competition, implying that entry is even more difficult than often thought.},

The need for research directed towards a functional analysis of roundabouts characterized by the weaving 9 lane, comes from the necessity to ensure high safety standards through appropriate design procedures and safety 10 audit. Particularly when European Community Countries were required to transpose the Directive 2008/96/CE, 11 which imposes a significant reduction in the road accident rate. Mainly in Italy, there aren't documents about 12 road geometrical design that provide detailed methods to plan weaving areas, but they only suggest using 13 probabilistic methods, leaving designers free to choose the statistical distribution. 14 This study proposes an analysis of driver behavior on different weaving lanes in various traffic conditions 15 performed on an interactive driving simulator. Four different lengths of weaving lane combined with four 16 different traffic flow conditions were simulated and the different drivers' performance have been analyzed. 17 Moreover an hazard analysis has been conducted. It has been observed that it is effective increasing length of the 18 weaving lanes only when the traffic flow conditions exceed a certain threshold. 19 The general results highlight the advanced method of driving simulator can ensure the reliability of measures 20 and, also, it can show the relationships between road geometrical characteristics and drivers behavior.},

abstract = {5 Implementing a well-designed detour plan to minimize the impact of non-recurrent congestion 6 has long been adopted by responsible highway agencies based mainly on the estimated incident 7 duration or number of blocked lanes. Since an effective detour operation necessitates rigorous 8 plans in advance and vast amount of resources during implementation, the convincing 9 justification for taking such actions becomes increasingly essential in practice, especially in view 10 of the diminishing resources for traffic management. This paper presents a multi-criteria decision 11 support system to assist traffic managers in effectively making such decisions in real-time 12 operations by taking into account associated costs and benefits from various perspectives, 13 including the operational cost, the resulting benefits from reduced delay, fuel consumption, and 14 emissions, as well as the likelihood of incurring secondary incidents. The impact of potential 15 driver compliance in response to the detouring strategy and the local traffic condition on the 16 effectiveness of detour operations can also be included in the decision process. The proposed 17 system with its embedded AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) structure and optimal corridor 18 detour model allows potential users to prioritize all essential decision criteria (based on either 19 resource constraints or the demand of general public), and to make the critical decision that can 20 best manage any non-recurrent congestion and maximize the total resulting socio-economic 21 benefits.},

Most previous studies have relied on aggregated zonal averages homogeneously attributed to unique individuals and have likely missed key subtleties of the built environment important to people traveling outside the protective enclosure of an automobile. Furthermore, most studies focus on the characteristics of the origin, not the critical components of the destination (such as parking, availability, and price). To understand better the choice of green and active modes, which is central to an understanding of how to achieve important environmental and health benefits, this paper presents methods to align detailed measures of the built environment (in sum, more finely disaggregated data of the built environment) more closely with the individual for disaggregated analyses of travel behavior. Through the use of a new, linear spatial unit of analysisthe individual access corridorcharacteristics of the built environment are captured all the way from the origin to the destination for a group of individuals large enough to be statistically meaningful for policy and urban design guidance through the use of predictive, multinomial logit mode choice models. This study provides planning and design guidance on how to increase the likelihood that one will choose walking or bicycling over motorized modes and examines such elements as zoning, subdivision ordinances, and streetscape design as well as station policies for bicycle and auto parking.},

abstract = {In August of 2010 the Texas Transportation Institute completed an exploratory study on vehicle mileage fees. The study noted that the public has strong concerns regarding the ability of the state to administer such a fee system at a low cost, maintain high levels of enforcement, protect driver privacy, and structure fees on an equitable basis. As part of that report researchers made preliminary recommendations on how to structure and implement a fee such that these issues could be adequately addressed and higher levels of public acceptance realized. This paper presents an in depth discussion of how a fee based on vehicle mileage could be structured and implemented so as to maximize public acceptance. The fee would initially be applied only to electric vehicles. Drivers of these vehicles could choose to pay fees under one of three assessment tiers: a flat fee based on assumed mileage, a fee assessed based on odometer readings, or fees assessed based on detailed time and location data as provided by in-vehicle technology. In-vehicle technology would not be specific by the government but would be provided by the private sector based on an open systems approach for maximum flexibility. If the system were to be extended to the entire vehicle fleet it should, for statutory purposes, be classified as a supplemental revenue source as opposed to a fuel tax replacement. This removes conflicts with environmental related policies and precludes the need to account for fuel taxes paid during fee assessment and payment.},

The top-level performance measure of the system is passenger trip delay, defined as the difference between ticketed passenger arrival time and actual passenger arrival time. Passenger trip delay accounts for delays caused by cancelled flights, missed connections and diversions, as well as delayed flights. Algorithms developed to estimate passenger itineraries and passenger trip delay statistics using publicly available data were used to generate passenger trip delay statistics for 2010. In 2010 an estimated 421 million passengers ticketed on 46.8 million itineraries were transported on 8.7 million flights. Passenger on-time performance was 78.7{\%}. The average delay for a disrupted passenger was 67 minutes. The total trip delay experienced by passengers in 2010 was 11,669 years. The largest contributors to total passenger trip delays were: passengers on direct itineraries disrupted by delayed flights -32{\%}, passengers on connecting itineraries disrupted by cancelled flights -23{\%}, connecting itineraries disrupted by delayed flights -16{\%}, and missed connections -14{\%}.},

One potential solution is to adopt more flexible routes and/or timetables to better match the required demand. Therefore such on-demand, or ‘Demand Responsive Transport' (DRT) services (known as paratransit in the U.S.) have been adopted. This paper seeks to explore the effects of area-wide factors on the demand of DRT by reporting the results of a quantitative analysis of DRT service provision in the metropolitan region of Greater Manchester, the public transport authority of which offers one of the largest and most diverse range of DRT schemes in the UK. Specifically, this paper employed a multilevel modelling approach to investigate the impact of various socio-economic factors on the DRT trip generation. It is found that the demand of DRT service was high in areas with low population density, high proportion of white people and high levels of deprivation.},

An approach being considered is the placement of tolls along selected interstate 4 highways where tolls are not currently collected. Questions of interest to State DOT officials and 5 state transportation policy makers relate to the potential impacts of such approaches. The 6 objective of this paper is to present a conceptual framework and analytical methods designed to 7 assist in the evaluation of the impacts related to placing tolls on interstate highways. Anticipated 8 impacts include estimated capital and operating costs to implement the required toll collection 9 strategies and technologies; expected changes in existing demand along the interstate and 10 alternate routes; potential toll revenue; and privacy and equity implications. A special effort is 11 made to take into account both the monetary and non-monetary aspects of these impacts. The 12 application of the framework and methods is illustrated with a case study on a section of 13 Interstate 93 in the Boston. The framework and methods are intended to guide state 14 transportation policymakers and DOT officials as they consider financing approaches. A major 15 conclusion of the paper is that while placing tolls along interstate highways where tolls are not 16 currently collected has the potential to provide a significant source of revenue for State DOTs 17 other impacts including route diversion, privacy, and equity need to be considered and addressed 18 in the decision-making process.},

This 27 paper examines the scale of markets for both inter-city rail as a feeder to airports, and for inter-city rail as 28 a source of diversion from air to rail. In the United States, we did not find a significant role for inter-city 29 rail feeding airports, with airports in Newark and Baltimore having mode shares of less than one percent. 30 In Europe over 23million trips to airports by long distance rail are documented. In the Northeast Corridor 31 of the United States, over a million rail passengers might have used air if the travel time improvements in 32 rail had not been made. In Europe, an estimated 7 million trips in this category can be documented. The 33 available European data supports the rule of thumb that rail terminal to terminal travel times of under 3 ½ 34 hours are associated with rail capturing more than 50{\%} of the air plus rail market for travelers with both 35 origin and destination in the subject corridor. 36 37 38 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Original paper submittal -not revised by author.},

abstract = {1 The value of traveler information systems depends on two major assumptions: i) drivers are 2 incapable of accurately acquiring information on their own, and ii) the provided information is 3 relevant to the drivers' choice preference. None of these two assumptions has ever been examined 4 in a real-world experiment. In addition, although the second of the two assumptions has been 5 addressed in numerous publications, the first assumption remains under-researched. Drivers' 6 perceptions of traffic conditions are undoubtedly an important factor in transportation 7 engineering. Yet, little attention has been given to the capability of drivers to accurately perceive 8 traffic conditions; such as travel distance, travel time, travel speed, and traffic levels. Because of 9 cost limitations, most travel research is based on either stated preference surveys or travel 10 simulators; both of which are characterized with serious limitations due to their inability to 11 address the accuracy of travelers' perceptions. To address this point this work is based on a real-12 world route choice experiment of a sample of 20 drivers and more than 2,000 real-world choices. 13 Each of the drivers' experiences, perceptions, and choices were recorded, analyzed and cross 14 examined. The results of the experiment indicate that: a) correct perceptions were only 50{\%} 15 accurate and drivers' perceptions of travel speeds were more accurate than their perceptions of 16 travel times; b) while drivers' travel time perceptions was the most important factor in explaining 17 driver choices, travel distance perceptions was the least important. c) there are significant 18 discrepancies between stochastic user equilibrium and real-world route choices. 19 20},

abstract = {The online shortest path (OSP) problem is a type of stochastic shortest path network problem in which certain arc costs are revealed en route, and the path updated accordingly to minimize ex-pected cost, which has important applications in evaluating network-level impacts of real-time traf-fic information systems. In cyclic graphs where arc costs are reset after each traversal, the problem can be solved exactly by a label-setting algorithm, and approximately by a label-correcting algo-rithm converging to the correct solution in the limit. This article develops a finite label-correcting algorithm for the same problem, recognizing the role of cycles in determining finite convergence. A faster heuristic is also proposed, as well as a method for detecting graphs in which OSP is un-bounded below. The new notion of a hypercycle is introduced to address the latter. Finally, the new algorithm is demonstrated on a medium-sized transportation network, indicating a speedup of approximately 75{\%} as compared to existing label-correcting methods. Determining how drivers react to real-time information systems is a fundamental problem in in-telligent transportation systems. A common model for representing driver behavior without such information is a shortest path network algorithm, where travel times are assumed known with certainty and a least-time path can be efficiently found. When travel times are stochastic but time-invariant, the least expected-time path can be found by solving a shortest path problem with travel times replaced by mean travel times, but this framework is not readily amenable to incorporating the effects of real-time travel information. A simple approach is to route a vehicle along the least expected-time path, updating this path as information becomes available. However, this fails to incorporate the effects of drivers anticipating information, which can alter one's route fundamen-tally. In particular, routes which offer more flexible choices for re-routing based on information received may become more attractive than routes with fewer alternatives, even if the latter has a slightly lower expected travel time (1). An online shortest path algorithm, by contrast, seeks to identify an optimal routing policy — rather than finding a single path, a set of paths is implicitly generated, where the actual path chosen depends on the information learned en route. Mathematically, consider a probabilistic, directed graph G = (N, A) with a set of nodes N of cardinality n, a set of arcs A of cardinality m, and an origin and destination node u and v. Assume that a directed path exists from each node to v. Let F S(i) and RS(i) denote the forward and reverse stars of node i, that is, the set of arcs adjacent to i, and incident to i, respectively. The cost of arc (i, j) ∈ A is a discrete random variabl c ij taking values from the set C ij = {\{}c 1}},

abstract = {Land use and neighborhood characteristics have long been linked to transit ridership. Large-scale agencies, such as state departments of transportations, often make decisions that affect land use pattern and transit services. However, the interdependencies between them are seldom harnessed in decision-making. In this article, we develop and apply a transit ridership model based on land use and other neighborhood characteristics for an entire state. We then discuss its implications for regional and state-level decision-making. We chose the state of Maryland as our study area. Using a number of criteria, we subdivided the state into 1151 statewide modeling zones (SMZs) and, for each zone in the base year (2000), developed a set of variables, including developed land under different uses, population and employment densities, free-flow and congested speeds, current transport capacities, and accessibility to different transport modes. We estimated two sets of OLS-regression models for the base year data: one on the statewide SMZs dataset and other on subsets of urban, suburban and rural typologies. We find that characteristics of land use, transit accessibility, income, and density are strongly significant and robust for the statewide and urban areas datasets. We also find that determinants and their coefficients vary across urban, suburban and rural areas suggesting the need for finely tuned policy. Next we used a suite of econometric and land use models to generate two scenarios for the horizon year (2030) – business as usual and high-energy price – and estimated ridership changes between them. We use the resulting scenarios to show how demand could vary by parts of the state and demonstrate the framework's value in large-scale decision-making.},

abstract = {41 42 The role of poor assessment of risk by those who undertake risky driving behavior is a key issue in the 43 literature, and variation in faulty risk assessment by key demographic groups is a major concern. Faulty 44 judgments about the downside aspects of risky driving behaviors, including denial of danger and even 45 denial of negative experience in being arrested, are more prevalent for the young when compared with the 46 old, and for males when compared with females. More recently, significant differences in the role of 47 denial of risk and consequence have been noted between urban and rural populations; early work suggests 48 that Location is a factor in the explanation of differences in the role of denial of risk for many 49 demographic groups. A new multi-group structural equation model has been developed to explore these 50 questions. Of the demographics tested, significant importance was found for Gender, Location and 51 Income, with particularly interesting interactions noted between Gender and Location. Examples of such 52 interactions include the conclusions that the Standardized Total Effect on Risky Driving Behavior is: 53 higher for females than males in Denial of Risk; higher for rural than urban residents in Denial of Risk; 54 higher for urban than rural residents in the trait Excitement Seeking; higher for rural than urban residents 55 in the trait Altruism/Confidence; and higher for females than males in Attitude towards Speeding. 56 Understanding these differences by demographic group could aid in the creation of targeted intervention 57 strategies.},

abstract = {This paper describes the process and results of a recent study in Greensboro, NC. The study arose after the Board of Directors of the Greensboro Transit Authority asked whether the transit system would look different if it were designed from scratch today. The study developed a “blank-slate” network for implementation in Greensboro and presented the new network at a series of public meetings. The process of developing a blank-slate network is described, and benefits and disadvantages of this approach are delineated. Concluding comments summarize the process and findings, identify barriers to success and suggest potential ways to overcome these barriers. The comments also address the ultimate question raised by this study: is a blank-slate approach worthwhile or is it a meaningless theoretical exercise that can never be implemented? The blank-slate network is unlikely to be implemented as designed in the near future. The study's real value may be in raising important transit-related issues among stakeholders.},

Arellana, Daly, Hess, Ort{\'{u}}zar, and Rizzi 2 Draft version submitted for 91st Annual Meeting TRB Conference 2012 56 ABSTRACT 57 58 Departure time choice modelling has received renewed attention in recent years due to the 59 increasing levels of congestion in many cities and the growing popularity of travel demand 60 management (TDM) strategies such as road pricing or road space rationing. Current practice in 61 evaluating the effectiveness of TDM policies usually incorporates the temporal dimension in 62 transport planning models only through fixed factors derived from origin-destination survey 63 data, making them unsuitable to properly predict demand at different times of the day. To 64 mitigate these deficiencies, we argue in favour of estimating and applying specially formulated 65 time-of-day choice models. In this paper we concentrate on the survey design generation 66 process for obtaining suitable data to estimate such models, ensuring both realism and 67 simplicity in the presentation; in particular, our SP exercise includes dependency between 68 attribute levels. Our proposed procedure should be widely applicable and offers a number of 69 improvements over current practice in the field. 70 INTRODUCTION 71 72 The efficient implementation of transport policies or TDM strategies requires an in-depth 73 understanding of travel behaviour. Mode, departure time, and route decisions are key choice 74 processes that we need to understand to analyse the temporal and spatial dimensions of demand. 75 Reductions in congestion can be achieved by spreading departure times into the " shoulder " or 76 off-peak periods, or by achieving a significant shift from private to public transport. Empirical 77 evidence suggests that modifications in departure time are a more frequent strategy for avoiding 78 congestion or charging as a result of TDM policies than change mode [1-3]. But shifts in 79 departure time still rank below route changes [4]. 80 81 A better understanding of departure time choice is a crucial component for studying the 82 behaviour of people in congested networks, evaluating the effectiveness of transport policies [5] 83 and planning the development or construction of infrastructure to accommodate projected 84 demand. 85 86 In recent years, most studies concerned with departure time choice have made use of SP data 87 and have been based on estimating scheduling models (SM). SP data are more popular in 88 departure time modelling work than RP data because the latter are very difficult to obtain [6, 7] 89 and require a rigorous and highly expensive data collection procedure, while also being affected 90 by significant problems with inter-attribute correlations. However, there is no consensus 91 regarding the design generation process for SP experiments in this context, ensuring both 92 realism and simplicity in the presentation to respondents. Key issues in developing departure 93 time choice experiments are (a) the dependence of some attribute levels on others within the 94 same alternative and design [8]; and (b) the fact that the design should be customised based on 95 each specific respondent " s trips and therefore common attribute levels may be inadequate in 96 terms of experimental realism. 97 98 The aim of this paper is twofold: (i) to generate a realistic SP exercise to model departure time 99 choice including dependency between attribute levels, and (ii) to develop a model that allows 100 the study of user behaviour when TDM strategies, such as congestion charging, are applied. To 101 our knowledge, there are no reported applications of efficient designs with these features for 102 departure time models in the literature. 103 104 The results reported in this paper are part of ongoing research, where this paper focuses mainly 105 on survey design while reporting preliminary model results that are based on standard methods 106 and thus do not yet take into account the full complexity of behavioural processes. 107 108},

abstract = {This paper aims to provide a better understanding of consumer behavior and its interaction with mode choice. Data for this study were collected through a customer intercept survey in spring of 2011 at ten grocery stores in the greater Portland area. A linear regression model of consumer spending was estimated to test the effects of mode, socio-demographic characteristics, time of shopping trip and distance from store. A binary logistic regression model predicted likelihood of utilizing an alternative mode for a grocery shopping trip based on socio-demographics, amount spent and several built environment characteristics. Results show strong effects of mode on the amount spent, with customers in autos spending consistently more than customers utilizing other modes of travel. Results from the mode choice model are consistent with the expenditure model in that amount spent is inversely associated with taking alternative modes, although the direction of causality is not clear. Findings also suggest that the built environment and day of week have a strong relationship with shopping mode. The implications of these results are limited by the lack of a full profile of customer shopping behaviors, including frequencies of shopping trips. Despite the limitations, this research sheds light on the relationship between consumer expenditures and travel choices and contributes to this literature by examining the relationships between mode and grocery shopping.},

Since the arrivals generally tend to occur at higher rates close to the beginning and end of the scheduled check-in, it is worth determining when additional counter(s) should be opened or closed. This problem becomes more complicated for large airlines at busy airports where they manage the check-in process for multiple flights. A model is developed here for optimizing the number of check-in counters as well as their opening and closing times. The check-in process is modeled as a nonstationary Markov chain and a parallel genetic algorithm (GA) with an integrated fourth order Runge-Kutta method is developed to optimize the check-in service. We minimize the airline's cost while providing the desired level of service. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This study jointly examines two distinct ICT choice behaviors - telecommuting and teleshopping - along two different dimensions: adoption and frequency. The linkages between two adoption models, or the two frequency models, are obtained by adopting a flexible copula-based approach that accommodates dependency (results from unobserved factors) between individual's telecommuting and teleshopping adoption (or frequency) choices. Rather than preimpose restrictive assumptions regarding dependence, a copula-based approach affords unique flexibility in testing different forms of dependence between telecommuting and teleshopping choice behavior. As a result, the most appropriate form of dependence is obtained. This study relies on data drawn from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey, which provides several different individual/household demographics, work/commute-related factors, attitudinal/behavioral characteristics, and residential neighborhood variables. Several intriguing findings arise from the joint modeling of telecommuting and teleshopping frequency choices as well as the analysis of the interrelationships between adoption and frequency choices for a specific ICT behavior. The positive and asymmetric form of the best model data fit (obtained both for adoption and for frequency models) also demonstrates the clear presence of unobserved factors influencing the underlying process of telecommuting and teleshopping behavior. To our knowledge, this is the first study examining the behavioral linkages between telecommuting and teleshopping choice behavior using the flexible copula modeling approach.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nKeywords: ICT, telecommuting adoption and frequency, teleshopping adoption and frequency, copula approach, revealed preference analysis},

Yagi et al. 2 ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of household auto/motorcycle ownership and mode choice models that were respectively developed based on the two large-scale travel surveys which were conducted nearly a decade apart from each other. In the meantime, in the Jakarta Metropolitan Area, there were unprecedented changes in the transportation environment such as growth in vehicle ownership and resulting change in mode shares. This paper then makes a time-series comparison of the models and discusses implications of such drastic changes that occurred in Jakarta. Interpretation of the effects of different types of variables including basic travel, household, and individual characteristics in the models estimated for 2002 and 2010 led to several interesting insights in light of the change in the transportation environment as well as the increase in complexity of the travel behavior in Jakarta. So long as the context of the society will not change, both models should remain unchanged with fixed parameters over a period of time. However, the models that were estimated based on the surveys conducted nearly a decade apart have indicated quite different parameters with different degrees of significance. Though further investigation is necessary, transferability of those disaggregate choice models may not always apply in urban areas of the developing world such as Jakarta, even though the model structure may remain the same. Such implications may also be important and hence worth studying for other urban areas though similarities may be restricted to regions that share modal and cultural norms in common.

abstract = {Despite the growing interest in the development of intermodal logistics centers by scholars and public-and private-sector actors, there is no con-sensus on the definitions of these centers. The purpose of this paper is to explore the literature and propose a unified and standardized typology and hierarchy of logistics centers. Several current terms and definitions are presented and used to establish criteria for creating a combined typology of logistics centers. This information is used to form a hierarchy of facilities according to their size, influence, value-added activities, and function in freight and logistics processes. The resulting typology and hierarchy are useful as a foundation for advancing research in this area. A new generation of intermodal logistics and distribution facilities has emerged around the world. This emergence is in response to the challenges posed by regional population and freight growth, and it has been facilitated by changes in freight and logistics processes. Loosely termed logistics centers, these facilities have become funda-mental elements of local, national, and international transportation systems in regions with high volumes of trade. However, an examination of the academic literature on logistics centers reveals that this phenomenon has not yet received an agreed upon name (1–4). Many common, though imprecise, terms have been identified to describe these centers, such as freight hub, freight gateway, inland port, inland terminal, dry port, and freight village. These definitions cover a wide variety of roles and scales, as some facilities are simple terminals with singular functions, whereas others are complex partnerships and legal entities that include logistics zones and governance structures (4). Why is there so much variation in the literature? What do these terms mean? To what extent are they interchangeable? And what type of facility would best suit the needs of policy makers and planners interested in the benefits these facilities can provide? The answers to these questions are essential because the issue of facility definition plays a fundamental role in any research undertaking by scholars in academia and the public and private sectors. This paper proposes a standardized typology and hierarchy of logistics centers that will help this area to evolve toward a more coherent and integrative field of study. This objective will be accomplished by (a) working toward a functional classification of the logistics centers encountered in the literature, (b) assembling this classification into a combined logistics center typology, (c) provid-ing consolidated definitions of the different types of facilities, and (d) organizing these facilities into a functional logistics center hier-archy on the basis of their value-added activities in the supply chain and function in regional freight and logistics processes. The goal of this paper is to establish the proposed standardized typology and hierarchy of logistics centers as a foundation for future research in this area that will enable scholars and policy makers to better understand the function, scale, and expected benefits of these centers and direct strategic investments in the development of intermodal logistics networks. The structure of this paper is as follows. The first section illustrates the lack of consensus in the literature by presenting several common terms and definitions used in relation to logistics centers. The second section examines and critiques previous attempts at classifying the different types of logistics centers and establishes the criteria for working toward a functional typology. The third section uses this work to propose a consolidated logistics center typology, new stan-dardized facility definitions, and a hierarchy based on their function and scope. The paper then offers conclusions and directions for future research.},

abstract = {2 3 4 ABSTRACT 5 6 Evaluating proposed transit plans and ranking them is a critical step when making funding 7 recommendations. This paper examines issues which are associated with the mathematical 8 models of evaluating transit proposals. The study uses the published data from the U.S. Federal 9 Transit Administration's New Starts Program and tests the sensitivity of different mathematical 10 operations on the rating of the proposals. The FTA's process uses integer numbers, 1 to 5, to 11 score individual attributes, and executes a series of arithmetic operations of averaging and 12 rounding to obtain the overall score. The possibility that an initial small difference in the values 13 of the attributes can culminate into a discernable difference in the overall score is tested. To be 14 consistent with the SAFETEA-LU's stipulation about the use of a five-point language-based 15 rating from Low to High, a fuzzy inference-based evaluation system is proposed. This approach 16 is motivated to preserve the language-based evaluation thorough the evaluation steps. The 17 operations of fuzzy logic allow the process to be relatively consistent with the human judgment 18 and also inference-rules are flexible to meet approximate values of weights and breakpoints. The 19 study recommends: (i) when evaluating proposals, perform sensitivity analysis with a small 20 perturbation in input values and examine the variation of the overall score to see if the results are 21 stable and consistent; and (ii) consider the fuzzy inference-based evaluation which is consistent 22 with the stipulation of SAFETEA-LU, which suggests the language-based assessment of the 23 performance. 24 25 26 TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. Kikuchi, S. and Kronprasert, N. 2 INTRODUCTION 1 2 Establishing priorities among the proposals is the critical task for a funding agency. The process 3 must be fair and transparent and be applicable uniformly across the proposals. However, an 4 evaluation process cannot be completely objective. There is always room for the evaluator's 5 uncertainty and subjectivity to enter in the process. This paper examines the issues related to 6 mathematical operations when uncertainty and subjectivity are involved. It then proposes a 7 method that makes the process less vulnerable to the potential variations in the initial scores of 8 the attributes. The study is motivated by the concern that small variations in individual opinions 9 and measurement scale could make discernible differences in overall scores among the 10 proposals. 11 12 Many evaluation methods have been proposed to rank transit proposals. Some are solely based 13 on economic justification, such as the Benefit-Cost Analysis method and the Cost-Effectiveness 14 Analysis method. (1-2) Recently, the concept of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) 15 methods has been applied to evaluate transit projects, including indexing and weighting method, 16 Analytical Hierarchy Process method, and Utility Additive Theory method. (3-7) These 17 approaches recognize different goals of a project, measure the degree that the predicted 18 performances meet individual goals separately, and convert to a single overall performance using 19 weights or rules of thumb. However, at the same time, the outcome of these approaches becomes 20 susceptible to small differences in measurements and uncertainties as more factors and steps are 21 introduced in the evaluation process. 22 23 The evaluation process in the New Starts program of the U.S. Federal Transit Administration (7) 24 is referenced throughout. FTA considers a weighting scheme method in which proposals are 25 evaluated and rated against a multiple set of measures. Since the onset of FTA New Starts 26 program, the structure of the evaluation method has not changed except for the evaluation 27 criteria and their weights, scales, and evaluation structure. (8) After a review of the FTA's 28 process, we test the effects of perturbations on the values of the project performance in relation 29 to the use of integer numbers for scoring, rounding operations, and the assignment of 30 breakpoints. 31 32 The current SAFETEA-LU stipulates the use of a five-point natural language-based scoring 33 system: Low, Medium-Low, Medium, Medium-High, and High. A fuzzy inference-based 34 evaluation process is proposed to preserve this idea. This approach is found to produce relatively 35 stable overall scores with respect to small perturbations in input, and also offers flexibility in 36 incorporating specific evaluation situations. 37 38 39 STEPS OF PROPOSAL EVALUATION AND ISSUES 40 41 When evaluating a proposal in the framework of MCDM, one pays attention to the performance 42 of different attributes that are associated with the goals of the project. A score is given to each 43 attribute, and the scores for all attributes are aggregated with weights. The proposals are ranked 44 according to the overall scores.

abstract = {Managed motorways (formerly known as active traffic management) aim to address traffic congestion and improve journey time reliability with a set of advanced applications of intelligent transport systems to maximize available road capacity. An important feature of managed motorways is the use of hard shoulder running together with variable mandatory speed limits during periods of congestion. Managed motorways were first trialed in the Netherlands and have been in operation in the United Kingdom since 2006. This paper presents the monitoring results of the introduction of managed motorways around Birmingham in the United Kingdom and also describes modeling methods that were used to generalize the findings. Managed motorways around Birmingham have been so effective that they are to be introduced by the UK Highways Agency across the wider network. This paper summarizes the findings of 5 years of monitoring and modeling and refers to the wider set of papers and reports in the public domain for deeper analysis. The paper describes the rigor in monitoring before and after data and in the modeling support for the assessment of outcomes of this transportation investment decision; these outcomes include a reference to the relationship with the economic development in the area. Discussion includes results from a before and after data analysis exercise, the contribution by microsimulation modeling, and findings from an extensive consultation exercise with users of the scheme. The wider economic impacts of investment in managed motorways are examined. The intention is to produce guidance for those transportation organizations that are considering the implementation of managed motorways elsewhere in the world, in particular in the United States.},

abstract = {43 Highway infrastructures in North America are approaching, or have surpassed, their service life. 44 As a result, an intensive amount of reconstruction and rehabilitation work is expected on existing 45 highways. Reconstruction projects of urban highways are unique projects because of their huge 46 cost, the magnitude of the work to be undertaken by several entities, and the impact on the 47 highway users and the community as a whole. Furthermore, urban highway reconstruction 48 projects are very difficult because of the limited space available which leads to more spatio-49 temporal conflicts. Without the use of simulation and 4D modeling, it is almost impossible to 50 detect those spatio-temporal conflicts. Therefore, a new methodology for minimizing the risk of 51 such problems and facilitating the planning process is needed. Bridge Information Modeling 52 (BrIM) is a new approach that can considerably facilitate 4D information sharing and exchange. 53 This paper aims to develop a simulation-based 4D modeling approach for highway 54 reconstruction projects and to investigate the available 4D bridge modeling tools for highways 55 and bridges. A detailed procedure is investigated for developing the simulation-based 4D 56 modeling approach and a case study is used to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed 57 approach.},

A methodology to disaggregate regional flows from the Federal Highway Administration's Freight Analysis Framework (FAF{\textless}SUP{\textgreater}3{\textless}/SUP{\textgreater}) to the state level was developed and applied to the State of Texas. To keep international trade moving in a timely and efficient manner, it is important to have accurate information identifying and anticipating capacity shortfalls and congestion nodes. As trade levels increase, the strain on existing infrastructure serving international trade will only get worse; therefore, this information is important for improving strategic investment decisions.

A methodology to disaggregate national FAF{\textless}SUP{\textgreater}3{\textless}/SUP{\textgreater} data and then assign and estimate the tons of international freight flows through statewide roadways and railroads was developed. Texas's international trade corridors are used as a case study to apply the methodology and estimate current and future freight demand.

abstract = {Many daily trips in the U.S. are less than two miles, but even in communities with extensive bike infrastructure, most of these short-distance trips are accomplished by automobile. Previous research has shown that cognitive and attitudinal factors affect transportation mode choice, even when infrastructure enables bicycling as a feasible transportation option. This study uses qualitative methods to explore the connection between social influences over the life-course and current attitudes and behaviors toward bicycling as a step toward understanding how attitudes towards bicycling are formed. Fifty-four residents of Davis, California, between the ages of 25 and 65 responded to a self-administered questionnaire and open-ended interview questions about their experiences with bicycling throughout their life. Frequent mentions were made of both positive and negative bicycling-related experiences that involved interactions with peers, family and the wider community. The authors analyzed the relationship between the quality and quantity of these experience types and the respondents' reported attitudes and behaviors in relation to bicycling. The participants were sorted into groups based on liking of biking, frequency of biking, and identification as a bicyclist. The mentions of positive and negative peer, family and community influences from the participants' interviews were compared across groups and quotes from interview transcripts were used to provide depth and explanation. Results suggest that respondents' perceptions of whether bicycling is safe and normal are particularly correlated with their bicycling-related attitudes and behaviors.},

abstract = {A new combinatorial dynamic traffic assignment (CDTA) algorithm for multi-destination transportation networks is developed. The algorithm, stated on a discrete space-time network, uses the cell transmission model (CTM) to propagate traffic, thereby ensuring that traffic dynamics such as queue evolution, link spill-over, and shockwave propagation are adequately captured. The CDTA algorithm assigns vehicles to optimal time-dependent shortest paths in one shot by finding connectivity between origin-destination pairs in the time-expanded CTM network. The CDTA algorithm runs in polynomial time and is guaranteed to find a user optimal assignment in single-destination networks. However, vehicular trajectories could potentially violate first–in first–out (FIFO) condition in a multi–destination network (thereby yielding an optimal though infeasible solution). FIFO flows are achieved by simulating the vehicular trajectories using a simulation-based DTA model. These flows in turn serve as an initial feasible DTA solution – this method is called " warm starting " a simulation-based DTA model. The algorithm has been tested for the Anaheim and Winnipeg networks for varying demand levels. The warm started DTA models performed better than the non-warm started models in terms of equilibrium convergence metrics. In particular, for solutions involving small path sets, the DTA model warm started using the CDTA algorithm provided better solutions than the purely simulation-based model. In addition to the " warm start " approach, parallel computing was also applied to the CDTA model to gain computational efficiency. The results are encouraging, and showed improved run times using multipole processors. Larger networks are better at realizing the full benefit of high number of processors.},

In addition, the potential social and environmental impact of biomass feedstock transportation has also received increasing attention due to the expansion of truck traffic on the current road system. This study applies a spatial-oriented mixed-integer mathematical programming model linked to a GIS resource model to generate a least cost solution of a typical feedstock harvest and logistic system for a potential biorefinery with the capacity of 50 million gallons per year. Moreover, U.S. EPA's MOVES2010a was used to estimate the baseline emissions for 2010 with national scale option in study region and additional emissions generated from hauling those feedstock with project scale option. Results showed that the transportation cost accounted for nearly one-quarter of total plant gate costs of the large round bales. Also, it was estimated that the biorefinery received about 50,000 truckloads per year, hence creating annually 100,000 truck trips (or 274 truck trips per day) on the road linking the entrance of the biorefinery to the supply regions. The overall VMT increase resulting from additional feedstock truck traffics was 3.7 million miles and the emissions of NOX, CO2, PM10, and PM2.5 emissions increased by 0.32{\%}, 0.13{\%}, 0.60{\%}, and 0.71{\%}, respectively, in these 13 counties studied when comparing with the overall baseline emissions. {\textcopyright} (2012) by the Transportation Research Forum.

abstract = {Words 7784 [6784 + 1 figures + 3 tables] ABSTRACT The National Household Travel Survey provides important information for the development of local and regional modeling to support decision making related to climate change and sustainability goals. This paper documents the use of NHTS data in the development of The Greenhouse gas Statewide Transportation Emissions Planning model (GreenSTEP), a model that forecasts estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at the county and urbanized area levels. The model was developed in response to an initial request from Oregon's Global Warming Commission and subsequent climate change legislation (OR Senate Bill 1059) mandating the development of a statewide transportation strategy for reducing transportation sector GHG emissions. The model was developed to be sensitive to a broad number of policy variables and other factors that were not addressed in existing models. Moreover, GreenSTEP needed to provide household-level responses to these policy levers while at the same time, providing forecast output for a large number of scenario options within reasonable computer run time.Lacking a local and current source of information about individuals, households, and their vehicle ownership patterns and travel behavior, GreenSTEP made use of the information in the national sample of the 2001 NHTS to estimate several model modules. Specifically, the NHTS data were useful in developing modules of: a) land use characteristics, b) vehicle ownership, c) vehicle use (Daily Vehicle Miles Traveled – DVMT), d) impacts of vehicle travel costs on DVMT, e) lightweight vehicle model (bicycles, mopeds, electric bikes, etc.), and f) vehicle fleet models (type and age). The NHTS data were particularly important for modeling the adoption and usage of (limited-range) electric vehicles, as they enabled estimates of trip length distributions. These modules work in a larger modeling framework to produce fuel consumption and GHG emissions for passenger vehicles, including household vehicles, bus, train and trucks. The paper will highlight the utility of the NHTS data for this modeling framework, the modifications and augmentation necessary, the limitations, and the potential for wider dissemination and use of this tool, given that the initial estimation was done with a national sample. Opportunities for the NHTS to address greenhouse gas emissions in future surveys will also be discussed. TRB 2012 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {It is understood that the threats posed by possible criminal activity in a neighborhood can play a major role in the decision to drive, take transit, walk, or ride a bicycle, but little empirical evidence has yet been gathered to support this notion, let alone guide public infrastructure investments, land use planning, or the allocation of police services. This study found that high-crime neighborhoods tend to discourage residents from walking or riding a bicycle. When a high-crime neighborhood is compared with a lower-crime neighborhood, the odds of choosing walking over driving decrease by 17{\%} for work trips and 61{\%} for nonwork trips. However, transit trips appear to respond to neighborhood crime in a way similar to auto trips; that is, high-crime neighborhoods appear to encourage transit use. The odds of choosing transit over the auto increase by 17{\%} for work trips and 164{\%} for nonwork trips. The study found that transit access trips (walking, bicycling, or driving to a transit station) are sensitive to neighborhood crimes in keeping with theoretical expectations: high-crime neighborhoods discourage walking and bicycling and encourage driving to transit stations. Specifically, for transit access to work trips, the odds of choosing to walk or bike to a transit station instead of driving decrease by 48{\%}.},

abstract = {This paper examines the influence of transit-oriented development (TOD) on vehicle miles traveled (VMT). Better knowledge of the performance of TOD can aid communities to pursue efficient development policies and incentivize the public and private sectors to fund pedestrian and transit-oriented projects to spur more development of TODs as a strategy for reducing congestion, providing alternative mode choice, and improving quality of life.  The study compared a TOD site in Carlsbad, CA. to a conventional, suburban neighborhood with a similar demographic profile and geographic location. The TOD residents were nearly as dependent on auto travel as the non-TOD residents. Comparisons were also made to examine how income levels of residents at TOD developments affected trip-making. BluWater, a market-rate TOD, was compared to Poinsettia, an adjacent, low-income TOD. Results showed that the low-income TOD residents made significantly more daily trips, but clocked lower VMT than the market-rate TOD residents.  For the case study TOD location, providing a greater mix of uses near the rail station would improve its functionality by allowing residents to easily access shopping and recreation by transit, cycling, or walking. Also, providing a sense of place for residents will increase the use of alternative modes. If transit riders feel comfortable, familiar, and secure with the public transportation system, cycling and walking in the area, people may be more willing to choose alternatives to the auto. These conclusions may apply to several developments touted as TOD, but that are not functioning differently from conventional planned unit developments.},

Although the benefits of SUE have been well documented, researchers hypothesized a disconnect between its full potential and actual use at the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT.) The research team conducted a survey of staff at TxDOT in diverse organizational units to learn about current utility investigations practices and gain a better understanding of how TxDOT uses SUE. The researchers found that among other issues, there is some unfamiliarity with SUE technology and its best uses, a general need for training and education on the use of SUE, and a recent decline in the use of SUE technology that may be linked to frequent uncertainty about the benefits of SUE.},

abstract = {The paper analyzes the spatial patterns of commuting in four different metropolitan regions through the estimation of consistent disaggregate workplace location choice models based on household travel survey data. The regions include San Diego, CA; Phoenix, AZ; Tucson, AZ; and Chicago, IL. Each estimated model is included as a component in an activity‐based travel model (ABM) developed for each region. The models were validated against aggregate journey‐to‐work flows based on Census data. The model structure and segmentation are discussed in detail with cross‐comparison of the most critical model variables across the regions. In general, it was found that the suggested structure performs well in different regional conditions. The main behavioral findings in terms of differences of commuting patterns relate to income, full‐time vs. part‐time workers status, gender, and occupation. When segmented by these attributes the workplace choice model replicated the observed flows with a good level of accuracy without any additional calibration or k‐factors. However, actual model coefficients proved to be significantly different from region to region, leading one to conclude that models of this type must be re‐estimated for each region. Another important behavioral finding with corresponding modeling implications is that the impedance function for commuting is essentially non‐linear with respect to trip length with many specific effects that relate to a variable marginal disutility of time and cost in each distance range. This required a non‐linear distance‐decay function to be introduced to complement the mode choice logsum which has more traditional linear mode utilities in time and cost variables.},

Focus groups with PEV drivers and participants in utility green electricity programs were conducted in market areas of recent EV leases. EV leaseholders had disparate levels of prior commitment to green electricity. Those with high prior commitment view EVs and green electricity as stemming from the same motivations; those with low prior commitment were more likely to wonder why they—who are already driving an EV—should do more. Green electricity participants were more unified in their skepticism that EVs could be good for the environment, and in general were not disposed towards buying an EV. While the results suggest there may be little latent demand to link PEVs and green electricity within the sample populations, the research indicates two openings for such a link to be made. First is the example of those participants who do drive an EV and participate in green electricity. Second is the skepticism of others is often expressed as questions rather than declarations. The focus groups provide hypotheses and language to be used in large-sample studies to test the existence and prevalence of these beliefs in larger populations.},

This analysis indicates that such reforms can provide significant safety benefits. Crash reductions vary depending on the type of price change, the portion of vehicle travel affected, and the quality of transport options available. If implemented to the degree justified on economic efficiency grounds (for example, cost recovery road and parking pricing), these reforms are predicted to reduce traffic casualties by 40-60{\%}. The low per capita traffic fatality rates in European and wealthy Asian countries largely result from their high fuel prices. Yet, these impacts are often overlooked in policy analysis and traffic safety planning. Pricing reform advocates seldom highlight crash reduction benefits, and traffic safety experts seldom advocate pricing reforms.},

abstract = {The structure of transportation networks and the patterns of accessibility they give rise to are an important determinant of land prices, and hence urban spatial structure. While there is ample evidence on the cross-sectional relationship between location and land value (usually measured from the value of improved property), there is much less evidence available on the changes in this relationship over time, especially where location is represented using a disaggregate mea- sure of urban accessibility. This paper provides evidence of this dynamic relationship using data on home sales in the Minneapolis-St. Paul (MN) metropolitan area, coupled with disag- gregate measures of urban accessibility for multiple modes, for the period from 2000 to 2005. Our investigation seeks to track the effects of marginal changes in accessibility over time, as opposed to static, cross-sectional relationships, by using an unconventional approach in which the unit of observation is a “representative house” for each transportation analysis zone in the region. This approach allows us to control for changes in structural attributes of houses over time, while also isolating the effect of changes in accessibility levels. Results of this approach are compared to a cross-sectional model using the same variables for a single year to illustrate important differences. These differences are discussed in terms of their implications for prac- titioners and for further investigations of the relationship between transportation, location and land value.},

abstract = {It is well known that a standard application of the ITE trip rates for an area with many smart growth characteristics will result in an over- estimation of the number of trips generated. No commonly agreed on methodology in the United States for estimating trip generation takes into account the smart growth characteristics of a land use development project. Several methods have been recently proposed as incremental advancements toward developing such a methodology. This paper identifies eight available methodologies, five of which are appropriate for use in California. The five candidate methods are com- pared with the traditional ITE trip generation method in a two-part assessment. The first part involves evaluating the methods against a variety of operational criteria developed through discussions with a panel of transportation practitioners. The second part involves test- ing the accuracy of the methods by comparing the predictions of the various methods against available traffic counts and other data at 22 California sites that contain at least some characteristics of smart growth. On the basis of the evaluation, the authors conclude that all five methods have advantages and disadvantages and that while no single method emerged as the best for use in smart growth develop- ment projects, all methods appear to be more accurate at predicting the number of trips generated than standard application of the ITE base rates. Furthermore, this analysis focuses on candidate methods deemed appropriate for use in California, but this research has value and potential implications for smart growth transportation planning efforts outside California.},

However, to evaluate alternative policies effectively, evacuation demand models should be sensitive to time varying characteristics of a storm and the contextual conditions surrounding an evacuee. The time-dependent sequential logit is one such model, but it makes use of restrictive assumptions about the dynamic choices made by evacuees. A new model, a time-dependent nested logit model, relaxes those assumptions. It was formulated and derived in this study, and its performance was then compared with that of the time-dependent sequential logit model by applying both models to data from Hurricane Gustav. The results indicated that the time-dependent nested logit model has better predictive capability than the time-dependent sequential logit model.},

Several theories seek to explain spatial clustering in social networks, including demographic homophily, social contagion and confounding factors such as marketing exposure. Here we explore the extent to which each of these theories explains the observed clusters in adoption patterns. We develop a formal model of spatial technology diffusion capturing the flow of information among regions through people's social networks. The model is applied to the case of the diffusion of the Toyota Prius hybrid-electric vehicle in the United States. We discuss applications of the findings, including implications for the development of effective public policies for government agencies, effective marketing and distribution strategy for auto OEMs, and implications for the emerging market for electric vehicles and EV recharging infrastructure.},

A number data quality evaluations have been conducted in recent years to try and measure the accuracy of these systems. In general, the approach taken has been to quantify errors from the system by measuring the distance between an estimate and a benchmark or " ground truth " value. A number of distance-based metrics have been used including average error bias, absolute average error, and root mean squared error. However, because the benchmark values are random values, the errors are also random and subject to some uncertainty. This paper proposes a novel approach to measuring errors such that the distribution of the errors can be quantified and a statistical hypothesis test can be constructed. The hypothesis test can be used to decide whether or not the system is operating at the desired level of accuracy. 30},

The primary steps included a crash analysis, an observational field study, and a driver behavioral study. Several key conclusions from this research are as follows. Vehicles tend to merge closer to freeway speeds at tapered acceleration lanes than at parallel acceleration lanes. The recommended minimum acceleration lane lengths presented in the 2004 Green Book are conservative and, under certain conditions, could be reduced by 15 percent. In situations where significant truck volumes use entrance ramps, acceleration lane lengths designed to better accommodate trucks can be derived using speed-distance curves developed for a range of weight-to-power ratios. The recommended minimum deceleration lane lengths presented in the 2004 Green Book are conservative and do not account for deceleration in the freeway. Providing deceleration lanes longer than the minimum values in the Green Book may promote casual deceleration by exiting drivers. Several potential changes for consideration in the next edition of the Green Book are recommended based upon the findings and conclusions of this research.

LCFS policies 4 require that the fuel supply used become ten percent less carbon-intense over ten years. Such 5 policies mandate no specific fuel requirement, either by type or by volume of fuel. Instead, they 6 only mandate an average carbon intensity standard for the fuel supply. Such policies have been 7 praised as economically beneficial because they could drive a shift from imported fuels to 8 domestic fuels, but have been criticized because mandates may conflict with supply limitations, 9 potentially driving up fuel prices and transportation costs. The state of Oregon recently 10 commissioned a macroeconomic impact analysis to project the economy-wide impacts on overall 11 productivity, employment, and incomes that would result from an LCFS in Oregon. The analysis 12 considered a range of scenarios intended to bracket the range of possible industry responses to 13 such a standard. Scenarios imagined reliance on in-state biofuels, out-of-state or foreign biofuels, 14 or natural gas and electrification. The paper will discuss results showing that the scenarios 15 relying on electric and natural gas fuels had the greatest positive impacts, that scenarios relying 16 on in-state biofuels supply showed larger positive impacts than those relying on out-of-state 17 supply, and that no scenario showed any negative macroeconomic impacts. This paper will 18 discuss the scenarios, the macroeconomic impacts, the analysis methodology used, and the ways 19 in which these results differed from other recent literature on the topic.},

abstract = {In this paper, a methodology for enhancing the double projection method designed for the asymmetric traffic equilibrium assignment problem is proposed. One of the factors which determine the efficiency of the projection method is the appropriate selection of the step-size. This study customized the step-size for each origin-destination (O-D) pair by formulating the assignment problem on the space of path flows. In addition, even if the transportation network is decomposed into each (O-D) pair, the step-size based on the entire path flows was also available. This study developed a step-size selection strategy with two different available step-sizes obtained from different spaces of path flows. During the projections of path flows for each (O-D) pair the strategy compares the step-size customized for that O-D pair and the one for the entire path flows and selected a bigger step-size. Several numerical tests have been conducted on various sized networks. The methodology considerably improves the convergence speed of the solution algorithm. The further analysis on the numerical tests delivered the relevant information on the synergistic effects of the two strategies during the convergence process: the customized step-size, and the step-size selection strategy.},

abstract = {Law enforcement personnel are critical components of the transportation process. Arguably their most important role, and the one that is the focus of this paper, is their involvement in the management and control of traffic. Police officers are quite effective under these conditions because they can directly read and adapt to dynamic traffic environments. However, the decision of whether police control is effective and when, where, and how it should be used is not backed by any hard data or scientific study. This paper summarizes one component of a research effort to analyze and evaluate the use of police for traffic control during emergencies. In this work, the authors use the plan developed for the evacuation of the eastern shore region of Maryland to quantitatively analyze the correlations that exist between intersection attributes and the decisions that are made to assign police traffic control to them. The findings suggest that intersections on evacuation routes, US highway, State highways, interchanges, and intersections in the proximity of bridges and jurisdictional boundaries were more likely to be assigned police traffic control personnel. These results provide an understanding of factors that influence the selection of intersections for police control and identifiable relationship between the constraints and issues considered to be important by police and other tasked with the planning of emergency traffic management.},

This procedure significantly differed from previous research in this area that was based primarily on traffic flow data and ignored measurement errors. The results indicate that nonlinear latent variable regression models can effectively explain travel time variations on a regular day by using variables related to vehicle type, traffic density, and traffic composition. Test results indicate that the proposed framework for correcting measurement errors yields significant improvements over base models, where such errors are ignored. The findings from the study validate some key hypotheses regarding influences of various factors on speed of urban traffic streams and can serve as a tool for investigation of the causes of traffic congestion.

Mindful of the benefits of implementing access management treatments, the Michigan DOT has conducted an access management program since 2002. The Michigan DOT contracted with the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) to provide recommendations for adjustments to the Michigan access management program. As a result of the evaluation, TTI identified lessons learned related to the importance of (a) continuing support and funding for the access management program, (b) a clear access management policy statement, (c) coordination and cooperation between state and local transportation agencies, (d) continued training, (e) interagency coordination across state DOT divisions, (f) continued review and update of technical documentation and guidance, and (g) continued objective program evaluations. The lessons learned that are documented and described in this paper are invaluable reminders to practitioners in state DOTs with established programs and excellent points to consider for practitioners in state DOTs just beginning to foster access management implementation. Practitioners from local transportation agencies (e.g., cities, villages, counties, and townships) that are implementing access management or planning to implement access management will also find these lessons learned invaluable. The research community will also benefit from the lessons learned identified in this paper because the findings validate the procedural, political, and institutional considerations often touted as imperative to successful implementation of access management.},

abstract = {This paper describes a novel use of traffic simulation software to model and manage recreational river use. River tourism usually benefits the local economy, but the influx of visitors can also burden the other functions of a river such as agricultural irrigation and critical habitat for flora and fauna. The management of boats on a river is very similar to the management of cars on a freeway. This paper describes how these similarities were modeled with the software package VISSIM. The paper elaborates on the differences encountered, including a discussion about the underlying differences between a traffic engineer's concept of capacity and that of a recreational manager. The model was used to evaluate three management strategies for dealing with future growth: (a) do nothing, (b) build and improve boat ramps, and (c) issue limited boat launch reservations. The three strategies were evaluated on the basis of density (boats per mile) and boat ramp delay (excess minutes because of queuing). The input for the model included nearly 600 boats and 1,200 visitors. The results suggest that lower density and delay are best achieved by issuing limited reservations. The paper is intended for managers of public lands who may not be familiar with traffic simulation software. The approach could be extended to the management of other recreation facilities, such as bike paths and hiking trails. The paper is also useful for traffic engineers interested in new perspectives on capacity and congestion.},

abstract = {Public transit systems play an important role in providing mobility, combating traffic congestion, reducing carbon emissions, and promoting compact, sustainable urban communities. The usability of transit can be significantly enhanced by providing good traveler information systems. OneBusAway is a set of transit tools focused on providing real-time arrival information for Seattle-area bus riders. This paper describes OneBusAway and the results from a survey of OneBusAway users that show a set of important positive outcomes: strongly increased overall satisfaction with public transit, decreased waiting time, increased transit trips per week, increased feelings of safety, and even a health benefit in terms of increased distance walked when using transit. The paper concludes with some design and policy implications of these results and plans for future research in this area. INTRODUCTION Public transit systems play an increasingly important role in the way people move around their communities. While there are significant benefits to using transit, many choice riders are reluctant to make the switch. Riders are often confused or intimidated by the complexity of large transit systems. Transit agencies often do themselves no favors by failing to provide information about the systems they maintain in simple, understandable ways. OneBusAway is a set of transit traveler information tools designed to take some of the uncertainty out of transit by providing real-time arrival information for Seattle-area bus riders. The societal benefits of public transportation are numerous. Transit provides mobility to those who cannot or prefer not to drive, including access to jobs, education and medical services. Transit reduces congestion, gasoline consumption and the nation's carbon footprint (1). In 2007, public transportation saved 646 million hours of travel delay and 398 million gallons of fuel in the U.S., resulting in a savings of {\$}13.7 billion in congestion costs (2). Use of public transportation reduced U.S. CO 2 emissions by 6.9 million metric tons in 2005 (3). While hybrid and electric vehicle technologies can reduce the carbon-footprint of single-occupancy vehicles, they cannot compete with transit in reduction of traffic and promotion of compact, sustainable communities. Towards this goal, there are two principal reasons for providing better transit traveler information: to increase satisfaction among current riders; and to increase ridership, especially among new or infrequent transit users and for non-peak-hour trips. It has been shown that transit traveler information can result in a mode-shift to public transportation (4). This stems from the riders' ability to feel more in control of their trip, including their time spent waiting and their perception of safety. Real-time arrival information can help in both of these areas. Existing studies of permanent real-time arrival signage at transit stations have shown that the ability to determine when the next vehicle is coming brings travelers' perception of wait time in line with the true time spent waiting (5). In addition, it has been found that providing real-time information significantly increases passenger feelings of safety (6). These issues are definitely relevant for users of the Seattle-area regional transit agency, King County Metro (KCM). A 2006 survey of KCM riders (7) identified key areas of dissatisfaction, including the top two: 26{\%} of riders were dissatisfied with their wait time when transferring, while 19{\%} were dissatisfied with personal safety when waiting for the bus after dark. In addition, 42{\%} of riders said they had experienced problems with on-time bus performance in the past 3 months.},

abstract = {This study measures accessibility by automobile for the Minneapolis - Saint Paul (Twin Cities) region from 1995 to 2005. In contrast to most previous analyses of accessibility, this study uses travel time estimates derived, to the extent possible, from actual observations of network performance by time of day. A set of cumulative opportunity measures are computed with transport analysis zones (TAZs) as the unit of analysis for 1995 and 2005. Analysis of the changes in accessibility by location over the period of study reveals that, for the majority of locations in the region, accessibility increased over this period, though the increases were not uniform. A ???flattening??? or convergence of levels of accessibility across locations was observed over time, with faster-growing suburban locations gaining the most in terms of employment accessibility. An effort to decompose the causes of changes in accessibility into components related to transport network structure and land use (opportunity location) reveals that both causes make a contribution to increasing accessibility, though the effects of changes to the transportation network tend to be more location-specific. Overall, the results of the study demonstrate the feasibility and relevance of using accessibility as a key performance measure to describe the regional transport system.},

abstract = {In the last decades simulation optimization has received considerable attention from both researchers and practitioners. Simulation optimization is the process of finding the best values of some decision variables for a system whose performance is evaluated using the output of a simulation model. A possible example of simulation optimization is the model calibration. In traffic modelling this topic is particularly relevant since the solutions to the methodological issues arising when setting up a calibration study cannot be posed independently. This calls for methodologies able to check the robustness of a calibration framework as well as further investigations of the issue, in order to identify possible 鬰lasses?of problems to be treated in a similar way. Therefore in the present work, the authors describe a general method for verifying a traffic micro-simulation calibration procedure (suitable in general for simulation optimization), based on a test with synthetic data. Then the authors apply it to draw inference on the effect that different combinations of parameters to calibrate, optimization algorithm, measures of Goodness of Fit and noise in the data may have on the optimization problem. The time required to perform all the simulations needed to the study would make the present application unfeasible. For this reason a Kriging surrogate of the simulation model has been used in its place. Results show the importance of verifying the calibration procedure with synthetic data. In addition they ascertain the need for global optimization solutions, giving new insights into the topic.},

To date, however, it is unclear whether these plans are being implemented or have any causal effects on emissions. Using data from California, I provide the first quantitative analysis of the impacts of climate plans. I find that cities with climate plans have had far greater success in implementing strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions than their counterparts without such plans. For example, they have more green buildings, spend more on pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and have implemented more programs to divert waste from methane-generating landfills. I find little evidence, however, that climate plans play any causal role in this success. Rather, citizens' environmental preferences appear to be a more important driver of both the adoption of climate plans and the pursuit of specific emission reduction measures. Thus, climate plans are largely codifying outcomes that would have been achieved in any case. ?? 2011 Elsevier Inc..},

A series of tests was designed to investigate the viability of leveraging low cost 9 consumer Bluetooth enabled devices as a platform to determine the proximity of a construction 10 worker to potential hazards such as moving construction equipment or construction equipment 11 that is associated with the dispersion of potential hazards. Bluetooth enabled devices and a 12 Bluetooth receiver were tested in open, unobstructed areas to determine the characteristics of the 13 signal detection and signal strength. A data collection platform was developed to log the signal 14 information at various distances and configurations. The information gathered from the 15 controlled field studies provide a quantitative estimate of the distance between a Bluetooth 16 receiver and emitting device by utilizing the Bluetooth signal strength. Testing also indicated 17 that obstructions, such as the human body, may interfere with the signal strength and detection 18 capabilities. The results of the study indicate that there is significant promise in using Bluetooth 19 signals to quantify exposures to health hazards on the construction site and that further research 20 is warranted on an active construction site. 21 22 23 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Recent Transportation Research Board-sponsored studies on project delivery methods in airport, highway, and transit agencies found that many agencies have gained experience with alternative project delivery methods (PDM) and now consciously pair a transportation project's requirements with an appropriate delivery method. These agencies have experienced successful projects using traditional Design-Bid-Build (DBB), as well as the integrated methods, Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMR), and Design-Build (DB). This paper combines the results of the studies in the three modes and seeks to differentiate experienced practitioners' perceptions in 19 agencies of how project delivery method choice impacts design and construction quality. The major advantage of integrated project delivery methods was found to lie in the collaboration between the designer and the builder during the preconstruction phase. Preconstruction collaboration does not happen automatically by merely deciding to use integrated delivery. This paper reports the results of structured interviews on this topic as far as which elements of preconstruction collaboration were seen to enhance transportation project quality. It concludes that the most important factors are the qualifications and experience of the team and the ability to get early constructor involvement in the design process. It also found that the use of guaranteed maximum price, rather than lump sum payment provisions, in CMR and DB projects was perceived to maximize the benefits associated with these project delivery methods. INTRODUCTION During the 1990s, the transportation industry caught up with the building construction industry in experimenting with various forms of alternative project delivery methods (PDMs) (1, 2). In the state department of transportation sector, this was facilitated by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Special Experimental Project 14 (SEP-14), which authorized the use of Design-Build (DB) and Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMR) (also termed Construction Manager/General Contractor or CM/GC) project delivery (3). In the most recent decade, transportation agency procurement programs have matured and these forms of project delivery (which were called either " alternative " or " innovative " in the 1990s) have been institutionalized and are now viewed as tools in the typical agency's procurement toolbox (4). A paper written by Miller et al. at the turn of the 21st century proposed " simultaneous use of multiple project delivery methods " as the " new paradigm " (5). The authors, indeed, had foresight, because recent project delivery research confirms that many transportation agencies across the country employ more than one project delivery method (6, 7, 8, 9). Driving the shift in public procurement culture was the perception by practitioners, both in government and industry, that benefits could be accrued by integrating the project team and bringing the constructor into the project before design was complete— to furnish substantive input on cost, schedule, and constructability (3, 5, 6). Beyond time and cost savings, the salient question has been to determine if the quality of the ultimate product was degraded through either the speed at which the design and construction had to be completed or by an agency loss of control over the design and construction process (10). Therefore, the objective of this study was to test that question by interviewing experienced practitioners at airport, highway, and transit agencies and to sample their perceptions of the relative effectiveness of each method in delivering a final project that met the public owner's pre-award expectations. METHODOLOGY This study's methodology was designed to analyze the output from multiple studies to identify intersections between the following three research projects: Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Project A01-05, " A Guidebook for Airport Capital Project Delivery, " National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 40-02, " Construction Manager-at-Risk Contracting for Highway Projects, " and Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Project G-08, " A Guidebook for the Evaluation of Project Delivery Methods. " PDM selection guides were produced by the TCRP and ACRP. The NCHRP project was a synthesis of CMR project delivery by highway agencies. However, it also collected PDM usage data on DBB and DB, as well as including comparative analyses of the three PDMs. All three studies used structured interviews with transportation agencies to collect information as to their rationale, constraints, and processes for selecting project delivery methods for typical projects. The interviews also asked perceptional questions about the effective operational details of each PDM, as implemented in a given agency, and the quality of the final product. Structured interview questionnaires were developed using the methodology prescribed by the United States Government Accounting Office (GAO) (11). The GAO recommends that structured interviews be used where},

Similar to most other developing countries, reliable level-of-service (LOS) data for the wide variety of motorized and non-motorized modes used by the travelers are not available in Bangladesh. In addition, the 12 million inhabitants of the city have wide differences in affordability and accessibility to various modes. These result in substantial heterogeneity in their choice-sets. These choice-sets are however also unobserved in the data and not easily inferable from the limited information of the network. In this paper, we identify the key limitations of the available data and propose methods to overcome the limitations. A probabilistic choice-set of modes based on a small scale stated preference (SP) survey has been used to account for the absence of actual choice-set data. The systematic and stochastic errors in the network-derived time and cost data are explicitly accounted for in the model structure. The improvements from the proposed approaches are demonstrated by prediction tests using hold-out samples.},

The methodology can be used to partition a typical urban transportation network such that: a) the inter-flow among the resulting subnetworks is minimized; b) the subnetworks are balanced in terms of their sizes/flow activities; and c) each subnetwork is connected. Two heuristics are presented. The first adopts a recursive iterative procedure to determine the network's sparsest cuts that maintain the balance and connectivity requirements. The second heuristic adopts a greedy network coarsening technique to determine the most flow-independent subnetworks. The solution quality of these two heuristics is evaluated using hypothetical and real networks with different configurations. The results show that the heuristics can obtain near-optimal solution in significantly shorter execution times.},

It has been acknowledged that social activities and the travel for these activities can emerge from individuals' social networks and that social activities are responsible for an important portion of travel demand. The influence of information and communication technologies (ICT's) is also important in this respect. The purpose of the paper is to examine the effects of characteristics of egos and ego-alter relationships on the frequency of social interaction by different communication modes, using multilevel path analysis. The analyses are based on social network data collected in 2008 in the Eindhoven region in the Netherlands among 116 respondents. The results indicate a complementary relationship between contact frequencies by different modes. The contact frequencies of the different modes, especially face-to-face and telephone, can also be largely explained by the ego's personal characteristics and the type of relationship and the distance between ego and alter.},

abstract = {Over the past decade, activity scheduling processes have gained increasing attention in the field of transportation research. However, still little is known about the scheduling of social activities even though these activities account for a large and growing portion of trips. This paper contributes to this knowledge. We analyze how the duration of social activities is influenced by social activity characteristics and characteristics of the relationship between the respondent and the contacted person(s). To that end, a latent class accelerated hazard model is estimated, based on social interaction diary data that was collected in the Netherlands in 2008. Chi-square tests and analyses of variance are used to test for significant relations between the latent classes and personal and household characteristics. Findings suggest that the social activity characteristics and the characteristics of the relationship between the socializing persons are highly significant in explaining social activity duration. This shows that social activities should not be considered as a homogenous set of activities and it underlines the importance of including the social context in travel-behavior models. Moreover, the results indicate that there is a substantial amount of latent heterogeneity across the population. Four latent classes are identified, showing different social activity durations, and different effects for both categories of explanatory variables. Latent class membership can be explained by household composition, socio-economic status (education, income and work hours), car ownership and the number of interactions in 2 days.

These systems are needed to help local agencies identify problem areas, develop improvement plans, and perform before and after evaluations on the impacts of traffic management changes. Research performed in the past few years has demonstrated the utility of these systems for local transportation agencies, particularly for evaluating signal progression quality. However, acquiring the critical data items for existing arterial intelligent transportation systems signal phase event information is often a practical challenge because the configuration of the existing system of most arterial systems does not record or communicate signal phase events to a central location. As a solution to that problem, this paper documents an approach to estimate signal phase data with in-pavement vehicle sensors, a data source that is generally available from arterial systems. On many arterial systems, these sensors frequently communicate data from the field to a central traffic management center. The goal of this paper was to make recent arterial progression quality research implementable by developing a method to gather signal phase event data in a way that would be practical for most local transportation agencies, given their existing arterial systems. Two proposed methods were tested on a year's worth of data from a 2-mi arterial corridor in Carson, California. Results showed that sensor data from central traffic management centers could he used to develop accurate measurements of signal phase events when coupled with timing plans.},

abstract = {The number of carshare users has been growing around the world over the past decade, mostly in an incremental way. In this paper, the authors describe a pilot project that consisted of a substantial increase in the number of vehicles in a neighborhood with existing carshare services. The goal of this project, carried out in Nijmegen, a medium-sized city in the Netherlands, was twofold. First, it aimed to show that increased supply in car share vehicles could generate additional demand. Second, it aimed to explore whether the increased demand would also imply a diversification in the demographic profile of carshare members, as has been expected to occur by a number of authors. The results show that the supply-side approach can indeed be successful: carshare members increased with 27{\%} in the pilot neighborhood, substantially above the growth number in the remainder of the city. There is little proof, however, for the diversification hypothesis. While households interested in carshare membership had a different profile from existing carshare members, in terms of both educational and income levels (both lower), the profile of the households that eventually became carshare members more closely resembled the existing members. Thus, while many households with low income and education levels were interested in carshare, they did not actually become carshare subscribers. The paper concludes that the challenge, for carshare organizations and local authorities alike, is to build on this increasing interest for carshare and find ways to stimulate those potential carshare members with low income and education levels to actually become subscribers.},

Three heuristic algorithms based on sequential insertion, parallel insertion, and clustering first-routing second are proposed to solve this problem within a reasonable time for implementation in a real-world situation. Also, the results of three heuristic methods are compared with the results obtained from exact solution by CPLEX to validate and evaluate three heuristic algorithms. Computational results show that three heuritic algorithms are superior compared to the exact algorithm in terms of the calculation time as the problem size (in terms of the number of demands) increases. Also among the three heuristic algorithms, the heuristic algorithm based on seqeuntial insertion is more efficient than other heuristic algorithms that are based on parallel insertion and clustering first-routing second (166 words).},

abstract = {Spitsmijden (peak avoidance is Dutch) is a new travel demand measure introduced in the Netherlands. It is based on rewarding frequent car commuters for avoiding the rush-hour, using monetary incentives. Although previous quantitative analyses had revealed many of the factors influencing car users' responses to rewards, their decision to participate and the order of magnitude of rush hour travel reduction, several questions remained regarding participants motivations to participate and avoid the rush hour, and how their behaviour and motives develop throughout the reward period. Qualitative research methods (semi-structured interviews) were applied to tackle these questions. The analysis, involving 12 participants, suggests their motivations and behaviour are not stable and that a process takes place in which the rewarding gradually leads to behavioural change. Although the reward is the initial motivation to enrol and avoid the peak, many participants find travel options that are in themselves rewarding, leading to intrinsic motivation to sustain their behaviour. Some eventually choose a single new travel option (stabilisers), while others optimise their choice using dynamic traffic information (flexibles). Those who do not find attractive alternatives do not develop intrinsic motivation and fall back to their old behaviour when the reward ceases (relapsers). From a methodological point of view, the qualitative method used has significant added value to quantitative methods applied earlier in the sense that processes can be identified in which motivational, behavioural and contextual factors interact, leading to richer descriptions and improved insights into the behavioural adaptation process in response to congestion management measures.},

abstract = {In international bibliography, the average stress on the contact surface between tie-ballast is used to examine the stressing on the seating of the track. According to AASHTO testing for road construction, when the pressure on the ballast is increased by 10{\%}, it results in  1.3 to 1.5 times more rapid decrease in the track's geometry, and a corresponding increase of the maintenance cost. The type of fastening used, rigid or resilient, plays a major role in the magnitude of the stress at the seating surface of the tie on the ballast. Track maintenance and renewal are planned accordingly, always taking into consideration local conditions, based on a resultant of control data from measuring systems, visual observation and economic data. This paper presents a parametric investigation in Heavy Haul Railroads of the influence of the use of rigid versus resilient fastenings on the track maintenance. },

abstract = {Studies related to operating speed predicting models' development require vehicles' speed under free-flow conditions to be collected at different sites. Thus, a critical issue is the definition of the gap (or headway) from which the speed of one vehicle is not affected by the speed of the vehicle ahead. In many studies, a 5 second headway was adopted as the reference headway value from which a vehicle can be assumed to travel at a free-flow speed. Justifications for this value's 6 application are not clearly presented in the literature and some authors even suggest the use of other reference values. Therefore, this current paper presents a contribution for platoon definition, based on observed values of vehicles' time gap. A five-step methodology is described and tested for Portuguese roads' conditions. The application performed showed both the adequacy of the methodology proposed and the convenience of exploratory studies aimed at the identification of platoon gap (or headway) suitable for specific operating speed studies. According to the methodology proposed, it was found that a 6 second gap is a suitable reference for future data collection on operating speed on Portuguese roads. This result suggests the need to review literature headway reference values for representing free-flow general conditions.},

abstract = {This paper presents for discussion a creative approach (termed the " ABC system " by the authors) that builds upon symbiotic relationships between Active traffic management (ATM), Bus rapid transit (BRT), and Carpooling. The system would introduce reasonable and low-cost travel choices for commuters in U.S. metropolitan areas at relatively low implementation cost to public agencies. It focuses on commute trips between low-density residential suburbs and employment centers. Using ATM, the existing limited-access highway system (all lanes) would be converted to a new regional system providing for free flow of carpool vehicles and BRT. This would be achieved by managing demand on the system so that excess general-purpose traffic is held back, first at freeway entrance ramps using ramp metering, and additionally on the freeway mainline. Mainline traffic would be slowed down and held back using speed controls at a series of two or three concentric " cordon " locations, including gateways into the metropolitan area located at its boundaries. At these locations, restricted travel lanes would be created on the left shoulder for use by transit buses and high-occupancy vehicles with three or more persons (HOV-3+ vehicles), allowing them to by-pass the slower moving or metered general-purpose traffic. Likewise, ramp meter by-pass lanes would be created on the shoulders of freeway entrance ramps to allow transit buses and HOV-3+ vehicles to bypass metered general-purpose traffic. The paper uses sketch-planning analysis to assess potential costs and discusses options to secure funding for the system. Finally, the paper discusses its potential to achieve metropolitan goals.},

abstract = {26 Carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions information is being presented to people in the hope that they will 27 adjust their behaviour to reduce outputs. However, many might not fully understand or appreciate 28 CO 2 information when presented as a mass; this might affect the interpretation and application of such 29 information, and the individual motivation to travel in a more sustainable way. Related to that failing, 30 this paper empirically examines two key questions. The first examines whether, depending on the 31 format used (mass, trees, earths, and a carbon budget), people can give a sustainability ranking for 32 various CO 2 emissions amounts. It is argued that the latter three formats each provide some degree of 33 context which could increase the usability of the CO 2 information. Based on survey results, CO 2 34 information should be presented with greater context that just mass, ideally with respect to a 35 recommended level. The second question examines the so-called anchoring effect. In a state of low 36 knowledge, the way choices are valued is affected by contextual information such as those provided 37 by other choices' attributes. If a format is able to convey enough contextual information though, this 38 could stabilize interpretation. The anchoring effect was found to significantly influence the 39 sustainability ranking of travel alternatives presented in all formats apart from the earth format. In 40 general this suggests that the way travel alternatives are presented must be considered in the 41 contextual design of CO 2 information or unintended interpretations may occur. 42 43},

The MOVES modeling methodology is 34 based on integrating vehicle activity distributions with emission factors that are a 35 function of vehicle specific power and speed. As such, there is no direct accounting for 36 emission history effects. In other words, the emissions predicted are based on the 37 instantaneous measures of vehicle activity and its corresponding vehicle specific power; 38 there is no direct accounting for the past historical operational activity (e.g., 10 to 20 39 seconds).

abstract = {A certain acrimony pervades the long-standing debate over the costs and benefits of public rail transportation in the United States. Some people seem opposed to all rail transit all the time, whereas others support any and every rail project, despite sometimes high costs and low ridership. With much debate focused on pricing automobile externalities, trans- portation choice, and rail's external benefits, surprisingly few studies assess which rail transit systems create net positive social welfare. If con- sumer benefits alone do not justify the high cost of a transit investment, what would the external value of a passenger trip have to be to do so? Combining fare, ridership, operating, and capital cost data for 24 transit agencies' heavy or light rail systems or both, this paper makes back-of- the-envelope estimates of how transit systems' rider benefits compare with operating deficits. Urban rail systems may not be optimal from a transportation system or economic cost–benefit perspective, but they clearly create value for consumers and society. Given a low, but com- monly applied, elasticity of −0.3 and a linear demand curve, two transit systems create net social welfare gains solely on the basis of consumer sur- plus. At least 10 others likely provide net benefits when economic exter- nalities are accounted for. At an elasticity of −0.6, no system provides net social welfare gains if externalities are not accounted for. At least five sys- tems are unlikely to provide net economic benefits, even given generous assumptions about external and rider benefits},

This data will allow the application of validation at the level of use of routes. 37 38 The objective of this paper is to present a framework for the validation of traffic models 39 (microscopic or mesoscopic simulation) based on trajectory data; this will either determine 40 whether the tactical trajectories output from a dynamic traffic model (in which case it is only 41 available in microsimulation) is statistically equal to the trajectory data set or, at the network 42 level, to determine whether the strategic trajectories from a subset of vehicles represent a 43 sample of the used routes calculated by the Dynamic Traffic Assignment module of a traffic 44 model. The statistical technique evaluated in this framework is based on functional data 45 analysis techniques, where the evaluation consists in determining whether two sets of curves 46 are statistically equal or different. Functional data analysis techniques were developed mainly 47 by Ramsay and Silverman and included a large number of " classic " statistics techniques that 48 were then applied to functional data.

abstract = {The configuration of a single controller in a coordinated arterial signal system requires the programming of approximately 250 parameters ranging from minimum green times to complex hardware specific settings that determine how unused green time is allocated among competing phases. When one extrapolates this parameter count to a 10-intersection arterial (2500 parameters), it is likely that one or more data entry errors may occur that need to be identified and corrected. Ensuring the resulting coordinated signal system operates as designed requires an exceptionally high level of expertise to visually confirm by field observations, and perhaps an unattainable level of expertise to verify by inspecting data entry screens in the office. There is a clear need for visualization tools to provide educational insight on how coordinated signal systems should be expected to operate under different parameter settings and to document coordinated system behavior. This paper develops a series of graphics to visualize coordinated system operation characteristics such as time-of-day schedule change time, observed cycle length, green time/split time, coordinated phase actuation, early return to green, arrivals over advance detection relative to green indication, progression quality characteristics related to offset, adjacent signal synchronization, coordinated phase operation in rest, plan time changes, preemption, impact of queuing, and longitudinal analysis of splits. These graphics can be used as both a new learning tool, as well as a visual feedback tool to confirm that a coordinated system is operating as expected.},

Although some governments have tried to improve non-driver accessibility by coordinating land use 5 and transportation—specifically improving the proximity of bus stops, activity locations, and residences favored by 6 non-drivers—no existing performance measurement technique for these government efforts toward non-drivers is 7 known. Applying a model—produced in an earlier effort based on surveyed outcomes—which measures the impact 8 that accessibility has on the odds of non-drivers leaving their home on a given day, i.e. travel odds, this paper 9 presents a technique for measuring the performance of government in coordinating transportation and land use to 10 improve non-driver accessibility. To improve low performance, government may further apply this paper's 11 technique to visually identify the best neighborhoods on which to focus improvement efforts. Government can 12 improve non-driver accessibility in these promising neighborhoods—and thereby efficiently improve non-driver 13 accessibility in its jurisdiction—by using its zoning and budgetary powers to modify land use and expand bus 14 service to achieve the co-positioning of residences favored by non-drivers, activity locations, and bus stops.},

The I-95 / I-495 / VA 241 / Telegraph Road interchange reconstruction contract planned to reduce the number of lanes along I-95 / I-495 and implement frequent temporary lane closures in order to efficiently construct the over {\$}240 million project. When planning the maintenance of traffic for the contract, the Federal Highway Administration encouraged the use of innovative technologies in work zones to minimize impacts. One such technology is a Variable Speed Limit (VSL) concept which suggests that greater throughput can be achieved if vehicle speed differentials decrease (speed harmonization). A VSL system was implemented along I-95 / I-495 to evaluate as a work zone congestion management tool and help mitigate traffic impacts. Near the onset of construction in July 2008, the VSL system became operational but was only active during temporary lane closures on nights and weekends. From May 2009 to January 2010, the hours of VSL activation expanded to include weekday peak periods providing vast amounts of data for evaluation. The VSL system measures of effectiveness included speed, capacity, travel time, queues and delays. Qualitative measures such as public outreach and community feedback were also assessed. This evaluation concludes that successful VSL deployment as a work zone management tool is viable if motorists are informed of work zone conditions, automated speed limit enforcement is used, and if motorists have adequate time to utilize alternate routes, if necessary.},

In the study described in this paper, a statistical analysis of publicly available safety data was conducted to address two questions empirically: (a) How safe is rail transit compared with other modes of transport? (b) Does a statistically significant record of inconsistent safety exist among rail transit agencies? The analysis found that travel by rail transit was generally safer than travel by automobile or truck, but statistically significant long-term differences in safety records existed in the array of domestic heavy rail and light rail operations. However, a detailed review of the findings showed the difficulty in assigning these differences because of inconsistent regulation and enforcement, as some of the most profound differences were found in agencies that operate in the same state under the same regulatory regime. Finally, the analysis found that incident and injury rates were statistically poor predictors of fatality rates. This finding suggested that rail transit fatalities were so infrequent that existing information concerning rates of incidents and injuries had little or no statistical value in predicting the incidence of fatal accidents. Further statistical analysis of fatality rates might be fruitful.},

abstract = {Graffiti creates both aesthetic and environmental detriments to transportation infrastructure around the United States. Keeping transportation corridors safe, clean, and presentable should be a priority for all US departments of transportation. To facilitate green and effective cleaning procedures, the environmental implications and removal performance of several chemical graffiti removal products were examined. The primary objective was to use a simple strategy to evaluate the potential negative effects of common graffiti removal products on the environment and human health. Ten graffiti removal products as well as two spray paints were analyzed using the Indiana Relative Chemical Hazard Score or IRCHS. In this system, each hazardous component in a particular removal product received an IRCH score for worker exposure hazard, environmental hazard, and total hazard. These scores were then used to classify the products into 4 different categories of varying environmental impact severities. From the evaluation it was determined that regardless of the IRCH hazard score, wastes generated during cleaning procedures may still pose negative environmental impacts. These negative impacts stem from metals in spray paints running off into aquatic environments and partitioning onto soils. It was concluded that graffiti prevention is the best alternative in minimizing environmental consequences of graffiti removal. This report provides a compilation of several effective graffiti prevention strategies as well as a strategy for selecting the most benign chemical removal products on the market.},

These devices are also quickly integrating alternative input modalities (e.g., voice-control). While these systems have been the focus of some past research, this research is not usually performed on public roads, has examined only destination entry or navigation-prompt following (not both), and has analyzed a limited number of performance measures and systems. In this research study, five different navigation approaches were examined, varying in destination entry modality and density of visual display information. These approaches were empirically evaluated in terms of their usability and user-preference characteristics while participants were entering destinations and following navigation prompts. Results suggest sizeable advantages in the use of vocal control for destination entry tasks. During navigation tasks, most systems prompted better performance compared to using printed directions and no systems were worse than the printed directions approach. It was observed that drivers accessed embedded in-vehicle and in-device visual map displays relatively frequently while navigating, at least in the relatively complex routes studied. Simple displays (with limited visual information) were linked to less use of the display during navigation. Drivers also seemed to value access to visual information about their route, as suggested by their subjective preferences. In this research, it appears that the use of visual-manual control for address destination entry does not seem to be compliant with well-accepted industry guidelines for tasks that are performed while a vehicle is moving.},

Overall, carpool mode share has decreased during the 1980's and 1990's, even as the policies were in place to encourage carpooling. At the same time the share of fampools increased and fampools now make up the majority of carpools. By analyzing the characteristics of fampools and non-fampools, we can better understand both groups and how policies may impact each group differently. One area of particular interest in this research is the impact of managed lanes on the mode choice of fampools and non-fampools. This research found that the majority of fampools and non-fampools are interested in using managed lanes. The analysis of survey data proved that there are many similarities between the fampools and non-fampools but very few differences. Fampools carpooled a fewer number of trips per week in comparison to non-fampools. Fampools more often formed carpools for dropping off kids at school or day care, non-fampools formed carpools more often for sharing the vehicle expenses. Mode choice models found that fampools who are traveling on a toll road for their current trips are more likely to be a single occupant in managed lanes. The simulation study performed to analyze the impact of different travel scenarios available on managed lanes on the mode choice of carpoolers showed that a very small percentage of fampools and non-fampools chose to travel as a single occupant in managed lanes as the toll changed. Both fampools and non-fampools were insensitive towards the toll cost. The analysis of the descriptive statistics and the results from the simulation models confirmed that fampools and non-fampools have similar commute characteristics, interest in managed lanes, and socio economic characteristics.},

abstract = {Amid concerns for the environment and public health, there has been recently a renewed emphasis on active modes of transportation, i.e. walking and cycling. However, these modes have traditionally received research and practice focus secondary to motorized modes. There is consequently a lack of pedestrian data, in particular microscopic data, to meet the analysis and modeling needs. For instance, accurate data on individual stride length is not available in the transportation literature. This paper proposes a simple method to extract automatically pedestrian stride frequency and length from video data collected non-intrusively in outdoor urban environments. Pedestrian walking speed oscillates during each stride, which can be identified through the frequency analysis of the speed signal. The method is validated on real world data collected in Rouen, France, and Vancouver, Canada: the root mean square errors on stride length are respectively 6.1 and 5.7 cm. A method is proposed to distinguish pedestrians from motorized vehicles and used to analyze the 50 min of the Rouen dataset to provide the distributions of stride frequency and length.},

A catastrophe model has also often been used to describe traffic flow on freeway 4 sections. This paper investigates the analogy in logic behind the two-fluid model and the 5 catastrophe model using straightforward graphical illustrations. The paper then demonstrates the 6 application of two-fluid model parameters to a stochastic catastrophe model designed to estimate 7 the level of safety on urban arterials. The current road safety management process, including 8 network safety screening, is a post-active rather than pro-active approach in the sense that an 9 existing hotspot must be identified before a safety improvement program can be implemented. 10 This paper suggests that we need a scientific tool such as the stochastic catastrophe model in 11 order to identify a vulnerable urban arterial that may currently show an acceptable level of safety, 12 but that may easily turn into a crash hotspot. Such a tool would lead to a paradigm shift in the 13 way we approach the overall road safety management process: we would be able to implement 14 remedial actions pro-actively before a hotspot develops.},

The key assumption of current car following theory is 3 that vehicles travel in the middle of a single lane. But it is very unrealistic and is incapable of 4 describing driving behavior in a complex traffic environment. Taking into account the lateral 5 separation characteristics between the follower and the leader, the equation of Time-to-Collision 6 (TTC) was modified using visual angle and introduced into the general GM model. Based on the 7 stimulus-response framework, a non-lane-based car following model using TTC was developed. 8 The property of the model was investigated by simulations in several driving scenarios, and it is 9 found that the proposed model has ability to describe local and asymptotic stabilities, the lateral 10 movement and the effect of neighboring vehicles.

abstract = {Using the 1997/98 New York Metropolitan Transportation Council household survey and United States Census, we estimate an instrumental variable probit model to test the impact of contextual and endogenous social network effects on auto ownership. We find that the probability of car ownership is affected by behavior of socio-economic peers and physical neighbors. We show that contextual effects can only be identified when the endogenous effect is included. Ceteris parabus, households in poorer neighborhoods are more likely to own vehicles, households in neighborhoods with higher proportions of people with graduate degrees are less likely to own vehicles. The finding suggests car ownership is a status symbol for poorer households and non-car ownership is a status symbol for people with post baccalaureate education. The results are important in two policy contexts: as auto ownership is a precursor to trip generation and mode choice, auto ownership estimation is important to effective travel forecasting; as vehicle miles traveled (VMT) is tied to auto ownership, VMT reduction strategies, as a way to improve air quality, reduce congestion and reduce greenhouse gas emissions may be tied to auto ownership reduction strategies. In either case, correct modeling of auto ownership will lead to more effective policy outcomes.},

abstract = {Despite the importance of reliability, few countries monitor it or explicitly incorporate it into transport policy making. Nevertheless, a number of policy options are available to improve this aspect of transport management. Active management of the network through ramp metering is recognized as an efficient way to control motorway traffic and improve average travel time. Far less is said about the reliability benefits of ramp metering. This paper assesses reliability benefits of ramp metering on the basis of a before-and-after study on the A6W, a French motorway near Paris. Several indicators for travel time variability are applied before and after the introduction of ramp metering. For purposes of taking reliability into account in policy impact evaluation, cost-benefit assessment provides a consistent framework within which to assess the monetized benefits. The monetary value of the reliability benefits of ramp metering is therefore calculated, and the policy implications of the results are discussed. The results suggest that in addition to providing gains in average travel time, ramp metering significantly improves reliability of travel times. It is also proposed that indices such as buffer time or planning time are useful for communicating the results, both for network operators and for users. Failing to unbundle the time-savings benefits of a project between average travel time and the variability in travel time is likely to lead to suboptimal policy solutions. Managing existing capacity better can be a cost-effective way to improve both average travel time and the variability in travel time.},

To these ends, a weave bottleneck in central Bangkok was selected and videotaped for two morning's rush hours. The data were then manually extracted and analyzed by using oblique-coordinate based plots to reveal unprecedented traffic characteristics at the weaving section. These data verify that the capacity of this weaving bottleneck is not fixed and fluctuates over time depending on the on-ramp and off-ramp flows. It was found that on-ramp surges induce lane changes from slow to fast lanes, and cause an increase in the overall freeway capacity. On the other hand, any off-ramp surges influence lane changes from fast to slow lanes, bringing the overall freeway capacity down. Furthermore, a basic structure for modelling the capacity at a weaving bottleneck is proposed according to the mechanism found herein.},

abstract = {Medium term outcomes of a strategy to reduce peak rail overloading in Melbourne Australia are explored. It aims to shift peak ridership to pre-peak trains using a free ‘early bird' ticket valid for central business district (CBD) station exit before 7:00 a.m. The program costs {\$}6M in lost farebox (2008) and around 8-9,000 passengers use the ticket/ weekday. Ticket use is increasing (1.7{\%} p.a.) while overall rail usage is stable. A 2008 survey found that 23{\%} of free ticket users had shifted time of travel to the pre-peak; 2,000- 2,600 each peak. The ‘Medium Term Growth Effect' hypothesis suggests take-up of pre-a.m. peak travel will take time because passengers must adjust life styles to enable early commuter travel. Results confirm this; early bird use is increasing by 1.7{\%} p.a. Another hypothesis; the ‘Winter Dark Morning Effect' suggests that passengers will time-shift commutes to pre-peak less in dark winter months. While some trends are consistent with this no overall link between darker winter months and lower usage is found. This is due to lighter (and milder) winter mornings in Melbourne compared to Northern American and European cities. After early bird pre 7:00 a.m loads increased 41{\%} reducing pressures for purchase/operations of new peak trains saving 2.5-5.0 trains (2008) to a forecast of 8.05 trains in 2038. Financial analysis suggests the savings would substantively cover financial costs of free fares and benefits will increase over time. Wider economic benefits increase viability. The paper identifies key success factors for wider application and areas for future research.},

The eight specific tax options tested were variations on raising the federal gas tax rate, creating a new mileage tax, and creating a new national sales tax. In addition, the survey collected standard socio-demographic data and asked a few attitudinal questions related to the quality of the transportation system and respondents' priorities for government spending on transportation. These questions were used to assess support levels for the tax options among different population subgroups. None of the tax options achieved majority support, but three did fairly well, with support levels around 40{\%}. These were a 0.5¢ sales tax (43{\%} support), a 10¢ gas tax increase with revenue to be dedicated to projects that would reduce the transportation system's impact on global warming (42{\%} support), and a 10¢ gas tax increase spread over five years (39{\%} support). The study also compared public support for alternative versions of the mileage and gas taxes. The base cases tested against alternatives were a flat-rate mileage tax of 1¢ per mile and a 10¢ gas tax with no additional information given about the tax. All variants of these base cases increased support levels, in most cases significantly. INTRODUCTION In recent years the transportation revenues from state and federal gas taxes have fallen significantly in real terms, and especially in real dollars per mile traveled. At the same time, the transportation system requires critical—and expensive—system upgrades. For example, a large portion of the national highway system is in need of major rehabilitation, and there is a growing desire at all levels of government to substantially upgrade and expand infrastructure to support public transit, walking, and bicycling, modes that have been relatively neglected in the past 50 years. This dilemma of growing needs and shrinking revenues can be resolved in only two ways: either the nation must dramatically lower its goals for system preservation and enhancement or new revenues must be raised. If the latter is to happen, legislators must be convinced that increasing taxes or fees is politically feasible. One portion of the political calculus that legislators make when deciding whether or not to raise new revenues is, of course, considering likely public support for—or opposition to—raising different kinds of taxes. This paper contributes to the understanding of current public sentiment about increasing transportation taxes by presenting the results of a national random-digit-dial public opinion poll that asked 1,545 respondents if they would support various tax options for raising federal transportation revenues. The specific taxes tested were variations on raising the federal gas tax rate, creating a new mileage tax, and creating a new national sales tax. In addition, the survey collected standard socio-demographic data and a few attitudinal questions related to respondents' views on the quality of their local transportation system and their priorities for government spending on transportation in their state. The questionnaire described the various tax proposals in only general terms, so the survey results do not necessarily reflect support for any actual proposal put forward. Nevertheless, the results show likely patterns of support and, more important, the public's likely relative preferences among different transportation tax options. The remaining sections of the paper contain the following material. The next chapter describes findings from other polling on similar transportation taxes, to provide context for},

In particular, a main result derived from the model developed in order to estimate the external costs produced by the road users of the Spanish interurban road network suggests that a road pricing scheme based on the congestion costs makes sense only if applied to a few number of metropolitan highways, where it can be used to manage the car travel demand. Therefore, the implementation of a toll road on the metropolitan highways raises questions about its socio-economic effects. This paper focuses mainly its analysis on the results of the simulation of a toll-ring applied to one of the more congested rings of the Madrid Metropolitan Area, the M40. The results are analyzed in terms of efficiency (gains in terms of travel time) and equity (who pays for this time savings). Finally, the results of the implementation of such a toll-ring pricing policy show a clearly increasing level of socio-spatial inequalities. In fact, when the users have a viable road alternative, the burden of the toll-ring is equally distributed, but if not, the burden of a toll-ring has greater effects on people of low or modest income.},

In the second part of the paper, we develop a methodology to estimate densities with space and time based on data from loop detectors, by integrating the capacity drop. The methodology is based on solving a flow conservation differential equation (using LWR theory) with intermediate (internal) freeway mainline boundaries, which is faster and more accurate from approaches using only external boundaries. To capture the capacity drop phenomenon into the first-order model we utilize a fundamental diagram with two values of capacity and we provide a memory-based methodology to choose the appropriate value in the numerical solution of the problem with a Godunov scheme. Results compared with real data and micro-simulation of a long freeway stretch show that this model produces more reliable and accurate results than previous theories. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

A focus will be placed on the manufacturing sector, which comprises a major portion of the economy in this region. Building upon a synthesis of economic theory and transportation systems analysis, spatial panel econometric models were estimated to determine whether these communities were significantly impacted with respect to employment, establishment, and payroll levels.

The finite difference and finite element methods are commonly used to numerically solve 4 partial differential equations. The finite difference method adopted in this paper uses a standard 5 Godunov scheme to solve the continuum model. The finite element method uses one-6 dimensional simplex elements with first-order interpolation function along with a Galerkin 7 scheme to derive the element characteristic matrices and vectors. A high resolution real-world 8 dataset from Next Generation SIMulation (NGSIM) project is used to evaluate the two solution 9 methods. Results show that both methods provide accurate approximations to the observed 10 speeds. A discussion on the accuracy and quality of solutions and future directions of work in 11 this area is provided.},

The first paper (Part I) introduced a Field Theory with an emphasis on traffic flow modeling at the microscopic level.

As such, a unified perspective can be casted on traffic flow modeling with bridges not only within but also between microscopic and macroscopic levels.

abstract = {Most variable message sign (VMS) installed on the urban freeway only provide information about traffic conditions of urban freeway, but they do not provide traffic information about local streets. This study explores urban freeway users' diversion response to the D-VMS (VMS that display explicitly the travel time of both urban freeway and local streets) in the context of China. An on-site stated preference questionnaire survey was conducted to collect behavioural data. A cross-sectional binary probit model and a panel binary probit model are estimated to identify factors that influence drivers' diversion behaviour in response to D-VMS. The study showed that drivers' en-route decision on diverting from freeway to local streets can be significantly influenced by D-VMS and the extent of D-VMS impacts depends on driver characteristics, local street characteristics and D-VMS messages. Main findings regarding D-VMS impacts are, (a) travel time saving and drivers' years of driving experience serve as positive factors in diverting, (b) number of traffic lights on the local street, frequency of urban freeway use, being a mid-age driver, and being an employer-provided car driver, serve as negative factors in diverting. On the modelling aspect, it was shown that the panel model does not provide substantially different model coefficients but more robust statistical inferences for model coefficients as compared to the cross-sectional model, and the cross-sectional model tends to seriously overestimate {\textless}i{\textgreater}t{\textless}/i{\textgreater}-test values for explanatory variables changing across drivers (e.g. demographic characteristics) but slightly underestimate {\textless}i{\textgreater}t{\textless}/i{\textgreater}-test values for explanatory variables changing across scenarios (e.g. travel time savings). The findings have implications for better design and operation of advanced traveller information systems and for future effort on survey design, data collection and model estimation.},

abstract = {Currently, the scope of using macroscopic Dynamic Network Loading (DNL) models for applications such as real-time traffic management, reliability and vulnerability studies, network design and dynamic origin-destination (OD) estimation is limited by the computational overhead. The main reason is that these applications require a large number of DNL runs to be performed. Since the successive simulations often exhibit a large overlap, this problem can be overcome by introducing marginal simulation. Through marginal simulation, iterative or Monte-Carlo simulation can be performed much more efficiently by approximating each simulation as a variation to one single base simulation. Thus, repetition of countless identical calculations is avoided. The Marginal Computation (MaC) model presented here is a marginal DNL model consistent with first-order kinematic wave theory, thus realistically capturing congestion dynamics. It can model both demand and supply variations, which means it is suited for a wide range of possible applications. A case study on a medium to large-scale network (around Ghent, Belgium) is added to illustrate its performance.},

abstract = {This paper introduces the concept of a HITOD – Highway Interchange Transit Oriented Development. HITODs can redefine the interface between regional transport and suburban communities both by introducing mode choice at interchanges between highways and local roads, and by developing land left underutilized by current standard interchange designs. By introducing new possibilities at interchanges, HITODs can help to solve problems created by existing interchange designs, including sprawl and automobile dependency. HITODs also afford new opportunities for sustainable development and value capture. A HITOD has two primary characteristics. First, it has egress and access ramps that are optimized for express bus service, allowing buses to quickly exit the highway, allow passengers to board and alight, and then return to the highway. By enabling line-haul express buses to serve passengers at highway interchanges, HITODs will create the transfer interface for feeder modes such as local buses, Kiss-and-Ride, Park-and-Ride, bicycle, taxi and pedestrian that heretofore has been missing from suburban highway interchanges. Second, a HITOD integrates developable space within the area of interchange itself, which allows the development to be easily accessed by the surrounding neighborhood. Combined with traditional neighborhood design principles, HITODs could potentially create a highway equivalent to the " string of pearls " pattern of land development established more than a century ago by early American railroad companies. This paper describes a prototype HITOD and makes other suggestions for future research.},

abstract = {Reduced emissions and improved air quality are typically attributed to the use of roundabouts rather than traditional stop or signal control. Roundabouts are expected to reduce emissions as a result of reduced delays and stops. However, roundabouts slow all vehicles to speeds at which emissions may be higher, while signals stop and delay only a portion of vehicles. Roundabouts may also increase the amount of acceleration and deceleration for all vehicles. Because emissions are correlated to these modal events, their impacts should be considered in the evaluation of roundabouts. An on-road assessment of the emission impacts of two roundabouts compared with other types of traffic control was conducted with a vehicle instrumented with a portable emissions monitor. Emissions were measured along two corridors in Woodbury, Minnesota, with two drivers. The corridor at Bailey Road had two four-way stopcontrolled intersections, one roundabout, and one signal. The corridor at Lake Road had one four-way stop, one roundabout, and one signal. Intersection spacing and traffic parameters were similar along each corridor. Emissions were compared for sections 750 ft upstream and 750 ft downstream of each intersection. Traffic conditions during data collection along both corridors were uncongested. Average emission rate by driver was compared for the three types of traffic control. Results suggested that emissions were highly dependent on driver behavior. The roundabouts did not necessarily have lower emissions than traditional stop or signal control.},

However, to effectively use 8 the operating speed-profile it is necessary that it accurately predicts the speed along the road. 9 Therefore, the Design Consistency Module (DCM) of IHSDM (Interactive Highway Safety 10 Design Model) and the recently developed model for the Italian context were applied to a real 11 Italian two-lane rural road in rolling terrain with a complex alignment to evaluate their capability 12 to fit the observed speeds. The comparison of the operating speed-profiles revealed that the 13 DCM usually predicts operating speeds higher than the Italian model, whereas the comparison 14 between the predicted speeds and the observed speeds indicates that the Italian model fits slightly 15 better the observed speeds on this type of road. All told, both the models predict quite well the 16 observed speeds, even though there are cases in which the complex alignment strains the 17 construction rules with the results that the predicted speed-profiles are not appropriate. The 18 results of this case study are useful both to practitioners for a correct use of these models and to 19 researchers for identifying future research needs in an attempt to improve the capability of the 20 models to predict speed-profiles that conform to the real speed observed. 21 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In the 1990s, the Institute for Road Safety Research (SWOV) in the Netherlands introduced the vision of sustainable safety. In a sustainably safe traffic system, crashes are prevented as much as possible, and when prevention is not possible, the probability of severe injury is reduced to almost zero. In 1998, implementation of the vision commenced with the start-up program. Ten years after the start-up program, there was an investigation of how implementation of the measures that emanated from or were in line with the vision of sustainable safety had progressed and what effects these measures have had on safety. The assessment indicated that a substantial number of traffic safety measures were implemented from 1998 through 2007. Many actions taken within the framework of the start-up program were aimed at improving infrastructure safety; the most important actions were categorization of the road network and traffic calming measures such as the construction of 30-and 60-km/h zones. In addition, traffic enforcement increased as a result of the establishment of dedicated regional traffic enforcement teams. The crashworthiness of vehicles also improved. These measures had a positive effect on traffic safety. Each individual measure prevented casualties. Moreover, the fatality rate decreased from 7.3 fatalities per billion kilometers traveled in 1998 to 4.7 per billion in 2007. It is estimated that together the measures prevented 300 to 400 fatalities in 2007 (32{\%} to 34{\%} fewer than expected) and 1,600 to 1,700 fatalities from 1998 through 2007. Finally, a benefit-cost analysis indicates that the measures were also cost beneficial (benefit-cost ratio 3.6:1).},

abstract = {1 2 The Code of Virginia requires that goals relating to " job-to-housing ratios " be considered when 3 projects are selected for the state's transportation program. Such ratios reflect jobs-housing 4 balance, defined as an equivalence in the number of jobs in an area and the number of area 5 residents seeking those jobs. Because the Code does not specify the relative importance of such 6 balance, this paper examines the influence of jobs-housing balance on average jurisdiction 7 commuting times. After controlling for regional differences, the correlations between shorter 8 commuting times and higher jobs/labor force ratios were from -0.71 to -0.76 for 1980, 1990, 9 2000, and 2006 datasets. A 20{\%} increase in the 2000 ratio led to decreased travel times by 5.3 10 minutes (about 18.5{\%} of the statewide average). However, higher ratios may be associated with 11 better transit service or other variables. Correlations alone do not prove causality and are 12 potentially misleading. 13 14 As a consequence, a longitudinal model was developed that predicted changes in the 15 commuting time from 1990 to 2000 for each urban Virginia jurisdiction examined. This model 16 estimated that the average impact of a given urban jurisdiction improving its balance by 20{\%} is a 17 reduction in commuting time of 2.2 minutes (7{\%} of the average urban value). This effect is 18 evident only if several factors, such as the manner in which the region is defined, are carefully 19 controlled. Otherwise, commuting time is not significantly affected by a change in balance. 20 This finding suggests that jobs-housing balance has a statistically significant impact on 21 commute-related travel, but the impact is more modest than a correlation-only analysis would 22 suggest. This finding is within the wide range of the impacts of jobs-housing balance cited in the 23 literature. Modifications necessary to apply this approach at a census tract level of analysis are 24 discussed.},

Therefore, rail construction has lagged far behind road 4 construction, and consequently those mega-cities always face serious congestion, which has even 5 hindered economic development and caused catastrophic increase of CO 2 emissions. 6 There would be more than 50 mega-cities over ten million population in 2050 in Asian 7 developing countries including China and India. According to IEA's forecast, car ownership in Asian 8 developing countries will grow between 2000 and 2050 by about twenty times. Unless the basic 9 strategy in redesigning urban transport and the financing system for urban rail transit systems would 10 be substantially improved, it is very likely that mega-cities over ten million populations without rail 11 transit systems appear. 12 In this paper, based on the study of the mechanism to cause chaotic congestion, land 13 use-transport instruments and financing public transport as way out from catastrophe are proposed. 14 AVOID, SHIFT and IMPROVE are set as three steps to mitigate CO 2 emission in transport sector. 15 Value capture mechanism for domestic financing and reforms on CDM and ODA for international 16 financing are also suggested, making invisible windfall benefits to be visibly reclaimed, as well as 17 achieving better public-private supports.},

abstract = {1 This research investigates ways to forecast traffic flow over an area covering multiple links of a 2 roadway network. A question arises as to whether to construct one large-scale model or to 3 combine results from separate smaller-scale models. Intuition would seem to favor link-specific 4 analyses, but econometric results show how using aggregate models can increase accuracy. In 5 particular, we show how theory holds that correlations between traffic conditions on different 6 roadway links and errors in link-specific observations of traffic conditions increase the relative 7 accuracy of larger-scale models while site-specific sensitivities recommend consideration of 8 smaller-scale data. 9 Empirical evidence is here presented regarding the relative accuracies of various models 10 of traffic flow rate. One form of seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average time-series 11 model for general flow forecasting is chosen, along with methodologies for automatically 12 selecting models based on input data. Studies based on data from the Tokyo Metropolitan 13 Expressway show increasing data aggregation consistently increases model accuracy. Sums of 14 forecasts of link flows produce predictions of area-wide flow roughly equally as accurate as 15 predictions based on univariate analysis of area-wide data. Area-wide flows are easier to predict 16 accurately than link flows. Modeling large-area traffic flow using a univariate model is 17 considerably simpler, but produces less subsequently useful results, relative to using separate, 18 link-specific models. 19 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Macroscopic fundamental diagrams (MFDs), which relate the total time spent to the total distance traveled, are explored for freeway networks. It is proposed that these macrolevel relations should be observed if the data come from periods when all lanes on all links throughout the network are in either the congested or the uncongested regime. The theory pertains to freeway networks of any size, even when they are inhomogeneously congested and the data are variable in time. Analysis of vehicle trajectories from two freeway stretches of modest physical length supports this theory. Study further reveals that MFDs can be estimated with data from ordinary loop detectors, provided that every link in the network has at least one detector station and that the data are filtered to meet (approximately) the single-regime requirement. Detector data then confirm that well-defined MFDs exist for other freeway stretches and that the relations are reproducible across days. The results demonstrate that the stringent single-regime condition necessary to observe a freeway MFD does arise at times, even if only on shorter-length freeway stretches. The results also explain why previous efforts to observe freeway MFDs without filtering the data have been unsuccessful. Finally, the results suggest that policies to spread congestion evenly over a freeway network can be useful in maximizing the rate that trips are served.},

According to different vehicle type combinations of the 3 follower-leader pairs, work zone headway can be disaggregated into four types: 4 car-car, car-truck, truck-car and truck-truck. Based on work zone headway data in 5 Singapore, this paper demonstrates that each headway type is significantly influenced 6 by the car flow and truck flow rates by using the multiple t-tests. 7 This paper also presents a new methodology to determine the best-fitted 8 headway distribution model for each headway type at work zone. For each headway 9 type, the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) 10 test techniques are employed to determine its best distribution pattern and the optimal 11 parameters. The optimal parameters are further formulated as functions of the car flow 12 and truck flow rates based on eight sets of headway data. For any given car flow and 13 truck flow rates, we can determine the best distribution model of each headway type 14 by using the corresponding best distribution pattern and optimal parameter functions. 15 Another four sets of work zone headway data are used to test the goodness-of-fit for 16 the distribution models developed based on this methodology. The comparison results 17 of the cumulative density function (CDF) and K-S test statistic clearly indicate that 18 the developed distribution models can fit the observed work zone headway data very 19 well.},

abstract = {Many large North American cities impose minimum parking space requirements on multifamily residential developments. Concern has arisen, however, that the high cost to provide these spaces raises housing prices in such complexes. Because no well-developed, formal market for parking spaces exists, this study attempted to estimate the implicit price of aboveground or underground parking spaces for condominiums located in central Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Through the use of two real estate data sets, this study employed the hedonic method and tested for the presence of heteroskedasticity and for spatial autocorrelation when possible. Overall, the results suggested that consumers of bundled parking spaces received a large discount on such spaces. If the retail price were increased to include additional parking spaces, the higher price would not fully reflect the cost to provide such spaces. The affordability of housing might be adversely affected nonetheless. Developers, who are likely to be burdened by some of this indirect parking subsidy, may ultimately provide less housing to the market, which will lead to a higher market-clearing price. This study provided further empirical evidence to support the argument against the imposition of minimum parking space requirements. The requirements are likely to cause an oversupply of parking at multifamily residential developments.},

Both aspects of PGS are investigated using a stated choice experiment. In the experiment the presence of seven different features related to PGS is investigated in more detail. The features cover the name of parking facility; the type of parking facility; the tariff per parking facility; the occupancy rate per parking facility; the distance between parking and destinations; the number of parking facilities; and the route to parking facilities. In addition, the location is defined at three levels: at the inner ring of the city; at the entrances of the city; and close to the parking facilities. The study shows that a majority of car drivers are aware of the presence of PGS and that they also use the information presented by the PGS. Regarding the contents of PGS, car drivers prefer most the presentation of the occupancy rates. At lesser significance this feature is followed by the presentation of the name of the parking facility, the parking tariff, and the route to the parking facility. Car drivers do not have a specific preference regarding the location of PGS. The influence of personal characteristics and experiences with PGS is limited.},

As a result, a wide travel time distribution can be observed even with known traffic conditions. Among all the components of travel times, delays incurred when approaching intersections constitute a large part of travel times that vehicles experience in urban trips. Basically, delays at intersections are caused by overflow queue and traffic control. However, the most challenging problem is to estimate or predict overflow queues which are highly stochastic. In this paper, the delay distribution function for an urban trip with two fixed-time controlled intersections as derived from the analytical model under different circumstances is introduced. The overflow queue distribution which provides some of the parameters in the delay distribution function is estimated based on traffic measurements, e.g., the measured delays, flows and cycle time. Two sampling strategies including Random Sampling (RS) and Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) are applied to obtain sample measurements from total measurements. The Least Squares (LS) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimation methods are used to perform the parameter estimation in the delay distribution. The Genetic Algorithm (GA) is applied to find the optimal solution for the objective functions in terms of minimizing square error and maximizing the likelihood function. Based on the estimated model parameters, the delay distribution can be reconstructed. The estimated delay distribution is compared with that obtained from VISSIM simulation. Results show that both ML and LS estimation methods perform well in the undersaturated condition. While in the oversaturated condition, the ML method performs considerably better than LS method.},

abstract = {1 Individual bus operators specify vehicles in line with their own unique requirements. Collectively, 2 diversity across vehicle specifications increases costs and lead time in local bus manufacture, 3 paradoxically having negative consequences for the very function that specifications were intended to 4 improve. The vehicle specifications are driven by functional requirements and are therefore difficult to 5 reconcile with manufacturing by simply reducing them. This research set out to develop bus designs 6 balancing user and manufacturer needs. 7 Investigation found that specification diversity results from bus operators determining designs to meet 8 their requirements – resulting in a raft of solutions to the same or similar problems. Two interventions to 9 this situation were formulated; that a higher-specification product could offer equal or better function to 10 bus operators while being of standardised manufacture; and that a system of modular design could be 11 implemented where specification differences were functionally justified. 12 These approaches were tested in the design, manufacture and market implementation of a new driver's 13 area for transit buses. Through analysis of 12 months of manufacture the new driver's area was found to 14 meet the requirements of private and government bus operators while also streamlining manufacture. The 15 research resulted in a definitive design strategy for the development of better public transit vehicles, and a 16 tangible contribution to the field in the form of a new product. 17 18 1. INTRODUCTION 19 The ubiquity of roads allows buses to offer an inexpensive and versatile means of public transit (1). As 20 capital goods, buses are used by operators to create a commodity, public transit (2). The nature of bus 21 operators varies from government organisations to small family businesses; operators are typically 22 responsible for bus services in a defined geographical area. Operators create transportation services 23 within the constraints of their locale and business strategy; reflected in varied methods of operation and 24 marked physical variations in bus vehicles. This research sets out to alleviate the pervasive problems – 25 high vehicle cost and constraints on quality – caused by specification diversity, through the development 26 of a new driver's area for transit buses. 27 This research investigates variation in bus bodywork manufacture; manufacture of buses for public transit 28 by the fabrication of a bus body on a chassis. This manufacturing methodology is typical in countries 29 where markets cannot support widespread investment into chassis manufacturing capabilities. Chassis are 30 imported and are the base for the bodywork build process. The Australian bus market is dominated by 31 bus bodywork manufacturers, although alternatives are available in the form of locally made complete 32 buses albeit with imported drivetrains. 33 34 1.1 The Problem 35 Variation in bus vehicles leads to a bespoke (also known as " custom-made ") bodywork manufacture 36 process. While a bespoke process delivers a bus in-tune with operator specifications, it is also 37 comparatively expensive and slow when compared to mass production (3). Expense in the bespoke 38 manufacturing process is caused by constant re-design and re-engineering of components and systems, 39 which leads to a reduction in economies of scale which might otherwise be possible. A lack of repetition 40 in components and processes increases lead times and necessitates this craft-like approach to design, 41 fabrication and assembly. 42 Bespoke buses take longer to build and are dependent on larger inventories of spare parts and are 43 therefore more costly to purchase and maintain (4, 5). 44 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

@inproceedings{Holguin-Veras2011,
abstract = {Several findings call into question current practices. The chief conclusion is that the accuracy of freight generation (FG) and freight trip generation (FTG) models depends on the consistency between the model's structure and actual FG-FTG patterns, the degree of internal heterogeneity of the economic and land use aggregation used to estimate the model, and the appropriateness of the spatial aggregation procedure used to obtain the desired FG-FTG estimates. Relative to model structure, the paper establishes strong reasons to treat FG and FTG as separate concepts, because the latter is the output of logistic decisions, whereas the former is determined by the economics of production and consumption. The connection between business size variables-for example, employment-and FG is relatively strong because they are economic input factors, whereas the one with FTG is weaker because inventory and transportation costs come into play. Thus it is generally not correct to assume proportionality between FTG and business size or to assume that using constant FTG rates could be problematic. For instance, only 18{\%} of the industry sectors in New York City exhibit constant FTG rates per employee. For economic and land use aggregation, the finer the level of detail the better, as independent variables have a better chance to explain FG-FTG. In the case of spatial aggregation, the correct aggregation procedure depends on the underlying disaggregate model. For a FG-FTG model to work well, both economic and land use and spatial aggregations must be appropriate.},

abstract = {This paper discusses the development of a simplified model to efficiently represent local public transportation services in a large-scale travel demand model. The California Statewide Travel Demand Model (CSTDM) is a comprehensive model system designed and developed for use in transportation policy analysis and travel demand forecasting, including representation of both long and short distance transportation covering the entire state of California. A novel hybrid system is used to represent the full range of rail and bus transit services that are available. Rail services – including all long-distance rail, commuter rail and light rail services – are represented in the standard manner, using explicit node and link networks; the relevant in-vehicle and out-of- vehicle service characteristics for journeys are determined as standard skims of these networks. On-street bus services are not represented using explicit networks; rather, the relevant in-vehicle and out-of-vehicle service characteristics are determined using functions of other transportation network variables, land use descriptors and relevant policy indicators. These functions are simplified econometric models estimated using observations of transit service obtained from Google Transit Data Feeds. The network and simplified components are integrated in order to allow transit paths with both rail and on-street bus components to be considered by the various travel choice models included in the modelling framework. This hybrid system provides a suitable representation of transit for an area of such size. This facilitates consideration of transit service policies, while obviating the need for extensive transit coding, a daunting task for a large area.},

With the availability of traffic data in nowadays, the traffic data is popularly considered to apply for the validation of demand models. It is a crucial step for convincing the model prediction results. The flow-density model, which provides relationships between traffic flow variables, is a well-established approach for traffic prediction. Robust implementations of long- range planning and microsimulation models require calibration and validation of facility and time-dependent parameters (e.g. free flow speed, capacity, wave speed, critical density) which are sensitive to infrastructure, weather and other external factors. Archived data from freeway sensors provide a large sample from which to calibrate these parameters. In this paper, a set of automated traffic state identification tool is developed and applied to historical data to automatically determine the traffic phases. Once the traffic phase is known, we then calibrate the flow-density parameters with the fundamental diagram. Using this tool, with the identified traffic state for many days' data, the traffic parameters for free flow state and congestion state can be calibrated automatically in a fundamental diagram. As a case study, the calibrated traffic parameters in a dynamic traffic model (Cell Transmission Model) CTM are presented. The main findings of this paper is that an automated parameter calibration method is applicable for practical use, and this method provides a convincing result.},

Logistical responses to border crossings are believed to increase empty miles traveled, travel 3 times and total vehicle emissions. Analysis of observational data and surveys taken by commercial 4 carriers at the Cascade Gateway border crossings (between Whatcom County, Washington State and 5 Lower British Columbia) improves understanding of the manner by and extent to which the border and 6 associated policies and regulations impact logistics operations near the border. Findings suggest that the 7 border creates logistical incentives for trucks to both deadhead (cross the border without carrying goods 8 as part of a cross-border round trip journey) and make staging stops near the border for border-related 9 transloading. The Free and Secure Trade (FAST) program, as observed in the Cascade Gateway region, 10 unintentionally amplifies the existing negative logistical incentives which the border creates. 11},

abstract = {Incorporating thresholds into conventional discrete choice models is an important approach to improve the models as better representations of individual decision processes. The focus of this paper is on decision criteria which can lead to preference indifference between choice alternatives. The main contribution of this paper is an empirical test of the minimum perceivable difference model (MPD, Krishnan, 1977). The model estimates the minimum perceivable difference which must be exceeded by the difference between two alternative utilities for a clear preference. To test the model, a dataset of pedestrians choosing walking directions in shopping streets is used for model estimation. The dataset is also divided by pedestrians' socio-demographic profiles, shopper, non-shopper, male, and female, to estimate the model separately and compare behavioral styles. The results support all the research hypotheses. First, the MPD model can fit the data slightly better than the MNL model. Second, strong-utilitarian pedestrians (shoppers and females) derive higher utilities from environmental attributes than weak-utilitarian pedestrians (non-shoppers and males). Third, strong-utilitarian pedestrians experience indifference more probably. The results also show other interesting things. First, the relationships between the weight parameters are stable across the profile groups. In sum, strong-utilitarian pedestrians give more attention to retail floorspace and more likely to follow the previous walking direction, while weak-utilitarian pedestrians are relatively interested in unexplored streets. Second, the estimated utility transformation functions are exactly the same across all pedestrian profiles. The principle of marginal diminishing utility is prevalent in this case.},

Current railcar inspection practices are intended to identify defects before failure, but these practices gen- erally do not enable preventive maintenance because manual, visual inspection is inherently limited. As a result, automated wayside condition- monitoring technologies have been developed to monitor rolling stock condition and facilitate predictive maintenance strategies. Improving the effectiveness of monitoring of railcar conditions could substantially reduce in-service failures and derailments, operational waste, and vari- ability in rail operations and could enhance network productivity, capac- ity, and reliability. An analysis of the effect of lean production methods on main-line railway operations was conducted to determine the poten- tial impact of improved railcar inspection and maintenance practices made possible by new, automated wayside technologies. Dispatch simu- lation software was used to quantify the magnitude and the variability of train delay as a function of both traffic level and severity of service outage. The results indicated that the annual cost caused by main-line delay was substantial compared with the annual cost of track and equip- ment damages from main-line derailments caused by mechanical causes. This work provided an analytical framework to assess the potential cost savings available through improved preventive maintenance strategies.},

The goal of the upper-level subprogram is to minimize total cost, including user cost, operator cost, and unsatisfied demand cost, for the studied bus transit network, subject to a variety of resource- and policy-related constraints. The lower-level subprogram is a user self-routing optimization problem in which all transit users try to find the transit route to minimize their own travel cost (or time) and number of transfers in the network. Then, a procedure for a genetic algorithm-based solution is developed to solve this PTNRP bi-level optimization model. Network experiments are conducted, and numerical results are described.

Tahmasseby, S. 2 ABSTRACT Assessment of transit networks is usually based on a deterministic point of view by assuming that all components of the system perform as planned. In reality however, a large number of regular and irregular variations influences transit services such as variations in demand, service operation, and infrastructure availability. The question is how these phenomena might be taken into account in the transit network assessments. In this paper, an extended network assessment criterion is introduced to evaluate transit service performance in the stochastic perspective. Accordingly a simulation tool is used to assess a set of hypothetical urban transit networks. We evaluate and compare different transit networks for a medium city size in the classical deterministic view as well as with the more realistic stochastic approach. Our findings clearly show that considering service reliability may lead to different assessment criteria, and different plan options (a combination of radial lines and ring shortcuts); not only for transit service networks, but also for transit infrastructure networks.},

In contrast with earlier regret-based discrete-choice approaches, this model can be estimated using readily available discrete-choice software packages. The proposed model is contrasted theoretically with Random Utility Maximization's linear-additive MNL-model.

As high-resolution event data from signalized intersections become more readily available, it becomes possible to analyze actual link vehicle flows to better characterize whether (and when) signal coordination is desirable. This paper proposes and demonstrates a methodology that uses peer data obtained from adjacent intersections to assess opportunities to improve arterial progression if a noncoordinated system is coordinated. The beginning of green from the upstream intersection was combined with vehicle arrival times from a downstream intersection to characterize whether vehicles were likely to arrive in consistent platoons at the downstream signal. The peer data-based methodology was used to investigate the benefits of extending a coordination plan to a system running without coordination during a late-night period. A case study of a fully actuated late-evening timing plan on an arterial identified opportunities for potential benefits from coordination; the implementation of a timing plan for an adjacent time period reduced travel times by approximately 1 min in both directions on the arterial.},

abstract = {The Essential Air Service program was established in 1978 to guarantee air connectivity for residents of small communities to the national air transportation system. Currently, over half of EAS communities are within 70 miles of another airport leading to passenger leakage at EAS airports and rising program costs. This paper presents five case studies of EAS communities to understand the reasons for why local proponents support air service that is rarely used. Findings suggest that airports are an important local economic development tool for small communities and EAS is the most assured gateway to an Airport Improvement Program entitlement that supports airport infrastructure growth and maintenance. Moreover, community stakeholders are unaware of flexible options to the program and they fear losing air service could be detrimental to careers of local politicians and airport administrators. This study suggests that the Department of Transportation advertize and enhance alternatives to the traditional air service and attract communities to consider a multi-modal approach to air connectivity. Policy suggestions include creative ways of ensuring the EAS airports' eligibility for the AIP entitlement, leveraging state funds, and correcting for a possible negative impact on the local airport administrators.

abstract = {There is a need for more and higher quality data on pedestrian demand patterns for a number of applications in planning, transportation engineering, public health, and other areas. It is particularly desirable to better characterize the influence of daily, weekly, and annual variations; the impact of weather and special events; and the effects of changes in pedestrian phasing. This paper proposes using the rate of pedestrian phase actuation as a proxy measure for quantifying the relative demand for pedestrian service at a signalized intersection. Although this performance measure does not by itself provide a pedestrian count, it can be used as a surrogate to characterize how pedestrian volumes vary due to operating conditions. The methodology could be used at locations where actuated pedestrian phases are in use. This paper documents findings from over a year of data collection at a signalized intersection on a college campus. The effects of daily/weekly/annual variations, special events, weather (temperature and precipitation), seasonal changes in activity patterns, and changes in pedestrian signal phasing are documented. A Tobit model is used to account for the influences of these variables and understand how they co-influence pedestrian activity. The implementation of an exclusive pedestrian phase is associated with a 9{\%} increase in pedestrian phase actuation at the intersection. This change is associated with a decrease in user cost relative to performing midblock crossings. The modeled impact of snowfall events adds further insight by showing that as the user cost of making midblock crossings increases, pedestrian activity at the intersection increases.},

This paper proposes a novel mathematical framework that accurately quantifies oscillation characteristics for a general class of nonlinear car-following laws. This framework builds on the describing function technique from non-linear control theory and is comprised of three modules: expression of car-following models in terms of oscillation components, analyses of local and asymptotic stabilities, and quantification of oscil-lation propagation characteristics. Numerical experiments with a range of well-known nonlinear car-following laws show that the proposed approach is capable of accurately predicting oscillation characteristics under realistic physical constraints and complex driving behaviors. This framework not only helps further understand the root causes of the traffic oscillation phenomenon but also paves a solid foundation for the design and calibration of realistic nonlinear car-following models that can reproduce empirical oscillation characteristics. 2},

The study estimated parameters for several 6 functional forms including the Bureau of Public Roads (BPR), Spiess conical delay, and Akcelik 7 functions. Curves were fit for both HOV and general purpose freeway lanes as well as for 8 arterials for several area types. With the proper choice of parameter values, the BPR function 9 generally offered comparable or better goodness-of-fit to the data than the other functions, 10 although the parameters varied significantly by facility type. The BPR functions were then used 11 to perform user equilibrium traffic assignments and some final parameter adjustments were 12 made. Assignments using the final functions produced more accurate speeds and smaller 13 modeled volume errors on screenlines versus observed traffic counts.},

abstract = {Cycle centers have emerged as a new travel demand management (TDM) intervention in U.S. and Australian cities in recent years. These large end-of-trip facilities for cyclists offer bicycle storage, changing rooms, lockers, showers, bicycle repair, and other amenities, on a user-pays basis. The effectiveness of these centers as a TDM measure is not known. Australia's first cycle center opened at King George Square in Brisbane's central business district in 2008. Operated by the private sector and marketed as cycle2city, the center provided storage for 420 bicycles. An evaluation framework was derived directly from the stated aims and objectives of the funders and manager operators of the center. In April 2009, a questionnaire was sent to cycle2city members. The questionnaire was supplemented by interviews with funding agencies, the center's operators, and members. Route maps collected information on trip distances and the routes members chose to ride. The results showed who had been using the center, the travel modes they had been attracted from, and the transport benefits. Most users were men in white-collar jobs. The majority of members had commenced commuter cycling on joining cycle2city, at which time they switched from transit and the private car. Congestion-reduction benefits were small. The facility was not generating enough revenues to meet operating costs some 2 years after opening. The findings had direct implications for transport policy regarding the role and potential use of cycle centers for TDM in cities.},

abstract = {This paper evaluates the impact of adding a reserved bus lane on the running times and on-time performance of two parallel bus routes, one of them a limited-stop bus service and the other a regular bus service. By means of automatic vehicle location and automatic passenger count data, statistical models were built to estimate running time and on-time performance. The reserved bus lane yielded savings of 1.3{\%} to 2.2{\%} in total running time, and benefits were more significant for northbound afternoon peak trips than for southbound morning peak trips because of congestion levels northbound. The introduction of a reserved lane increased the odds of being on time by 65{\%} for both routes. A decline in the variability of running time and delay at the end was noticed after implementation of the reserved lane; the decline indicated that the reliability of the service being offered along the corridor had improved. The analysis showed that the more affected a bus service was by adverse traffic conditions, the more it benefitted in running time from improvements introduced by reserved lanes while keeping schedules constant. Reserved lanes had a substantial effect on both service reliability and on-time performance, two key variables in customer satisfaction that justified such implementation. This study will help transit planners and schedulers to understand the effects of implementing reserved lanes on running time, on-time performance, and transit schedules.},

abstract = {This paper compares the performance of several algorithms for offset optimization. A case study of a five-intersection arterial is presented. Cyclic probability distributions of vehicle arrivals and the probability of green are used to characterize traffic conditions under alternative offsets. Five algorithms for offset optimization were selected for comparison: quasi-exhaustive search, Monte Carlo selection, genetic algorithms, hill climbing, and the combination method. Each algorithm was evaluated with two alternative objectives: minimize delay and maximize vehicle arrivals on green. The relative performances of the algorithms were characterized by the optimality of the solution that they returned, the number of computations needed to execute the algorithm, and the marginal cost of adding an additional intersection to the system. All five algorithms effectively identified optimal or near-optimal offsets within the solution space. Hill climbing was more efficient than genetic algorithms, but the optimality of the solutions from both types was similar. The combination method found the most optimal offsets, with efficiency similar to that of hill climbing. The combination method is recommended for arterial offset optimization because of its deterministic computational performance for identifying optimized offset timing plans.},

abstract = {A growing community of transport economists and urban planners has concluded that the best solution to U.S. freeway congestion would be to implement congestion pricing on all such freeways. At the same time, many political scientists and other political observers consider doing so to be politically impossible, primarily because of strong opposition from taxpayers, voters, and highway user groups. Federal efforts (dating to the 1970s) to induce one or more urban areas to price its freeways have been unsuccessful; this lack of success reinforces the political scientists' skepticism. This paper suggests that even if the political difficulties could be overcome, the conventional model of freeway congestion pricing (charging all users the same variable price) may not be optimal: this model could well create more losers than winners. In analyzing this conundrum, the author looks more closely at two assumptions implicit in the standard congestion pricing model: uniformly applied (variable) pricing and all general purpose lanes. Revisiting both assumptions leads to a proposal for multitier pricing on differentiated lanes, which the author suggests could be more politically feasible and productive of larger economic benefits. This approach also lends itself to being implemented in an evolutionary manner, in which each step is justified on its own merits, without regard of the possible longer-term end.},

Efforts to use wireless communication technologies in the field of traffic information services have been widely performed. Rel-evant literature can be classified into two groups based on the traffic surveillance and information provision framework such as vehicle–infrastructure integration (VII) and vehicular ad hoc net-works (VANET). Several studies have dealt with technical issues related to traffic performance measure and information provision (1– 4) in a VII framework. Tanikella et al. investigated the appli-cability of VII for the purpose of traffic monitoring (1). The moni-toring performance was evaluated by the different levels of market penetration rate of equipped vehicles. Sharafsaleh et al. discussed technical and institutional issues for VII implementation based on lessons learned from real-world experiments (2). Li et al. presented a method to estimate travel times with VII probe data for arterial performance measures (3). Lee and Park proposed route guidance strategies under the VII environment and the effects of market pen-etration rate, network congestion level, information update interval, and driver's compliance rate on routing performance (4). The other branch of relevant research is based on VANET. Dion et al. evalu-ated the effects of market penetration rate, the number of roadside equipment, communication range, snapshot interval, and snapshot buffer size on the reliability of probe vehicle monitoring under the VII environment (5). They used the Paramics microscopic simula-tor for the evaluation. Shladover and Kuhn presented technical issues for the probe vehicle surveillance under the VII environment (6). Also, the potential of implementing various traffic applications was explored with the different levels of market penetration rates. Wischhof et al. proposed a decentralized traffic information system based on intervehicle communications (7). Yang and Recker, using microscopic simulations, evaluated the performance of incident information dissemination by traffic conditions (8). Xu and Barth presented a method to estimate travel times based on intervehicle communications (9). Artimy proposed a method to estimate local traffic density in the VANET environment (10). Oh et al. presented a methodology for evaluating functional requirements of wireless communication–based traffic information systems (11). In addition to existing studies based on the application of wireless communication technologies, another significant recent research accomplishment was to provide more accurate vehicle positioning information, which enables the identification of a lane in which a vehicle travels, with Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment The recent advancement of vehicle positioning and wireless communica-tion technologies facilitates the development of more sophisticated traffic control and information strategies. This study proposes a methodology for estimating lane-level travel times (L 2 TT) under an environment referred to as V2X, which includes vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications. A framework is presented for a V2X-based traffic information system that is capable of transmitting vehicle positions and speeds, which are used as inputs of the proposed methodol-ogy. A concept of establishing temporal nodes and links based on the dynamic change in traffic conditions is proposed to estimate more reli-able and accurate L 2 TT. VISSIM, a microscopic traffic simulator for multimodal traffic flow modeling, is used to evaluate the proposed travel time estimation method. Statistical analysis techniques including analysis of variance and a homogeneity test between data groups are adopted to derive more generalized conclusions. The evaluation results show that less than a 10{\%} mean absolute percentage error was achievable with a 20{\%} probe vehicle rate. It is expected that the proposed methodology will serve as a useful precursor to the development of a next-generation traffic information system in the robust wireless communications era.},

We found that online searching frequency has positive impacts on both online and in-store shopping frequencies and online buying positively affects in-store shopping. In particular, the marginal effects of online-buying frequency and online-searching frequency on in-store shopping frequency were estimated at 0.153 and 0.189, respectively. Since the internet as a shopping channel tends to have a complementary effect on in-store shopping, the rise of e-shopping is not likely to be a solution but a challenge to travel reduction.},

abstract = {1 In making air traffic flow management decisions, an accurate characterization of resource 2 capacities, at a lead time useful for planning, is paramount. Unfortunately, this is difficult to 3 develop because of the complex nature of the airspace system and the unpredictable nature of the 4 weather phenomena that often influence capacities. Capacity disruptions may be simply 5 characterized by onset, duration, and severity, and each of these parameters has a different effect 6 on planning. Having a better understanding of the sensitivity of the air traffic system to 7 uncertainty in each of these parameters can enhance decision-making and improve model 8 building. 9 To help characterize the sensitivity of ATFM models to uncertainty in various capacity 10 parameters, this research applies a modified Monte Carlo framework to a simplified model of 11 capacity to identify output effects. In addition to the variations induced in resource capacities, 12 randomness is included on demand profiles as well to avoid dependencies on a single demand 13 scenario. The results demonstrate that ATFM decision-making is quite sensitive to variations in 14 each of the parameters used to characterize capacity. The impact of capacity variations is 15 typically marginally increasing. 16 The results of this type of analysis have several applications. First, the particular 17 sensitivities of this deterministic model suggest that benefits may be realized by reformulating 18 the model to explicitly consider stochasticity in resource capacity. Also, results suggesting 19 greater sensitivity to specific capacity parameters may help to motivate future research on 20 mitigating uncertainty. Finally, this analysis presents an interesting application of the interplay 21 between simulation and optimization techniques. 22},

This is a significant departure from implementing these strategies in congested urban areas, as is commonly done. Therefore, traveler reaction in these suburban areas is unknown. To plan and design value pricing projects most effectively, requires an understanding of the potential reaction of suburban travelers to value pricing. Responses to a survey of travelers using the eastern and western segments of Interstate 10 (I-10) outside San Antonio, Texas, were used to study differences in response to value pricing by suburban population groups. These surveys collected information on travelers' socioeconomic and trip characteristics, as well as their attitudes toward implementation of value pricing. Overall, the majority of travelers on I-10E and I-10W did not favor the implementation of value pricing for the expansion of these corridors. However, I-10W travelers seemed to be more willing to pay for travel time savings, probably because travelers on I-10W had higher average household incomes, were more likely to use I-10W on a regular basis for commuting, and were more often exposed to some traffic congestion.},

abstract = {The current Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) provides transportation facility analysis methodologies to yield a single level of service (LOS) value that represents performance levels of a transportation facility and LOS perceived by all the users in a traffic stream. However, truck mode users may perceive LOS based on different criteria from others, due to special physical and operational characteristics of trucks, truck trip purposes, frequencies, and distances. The perceptions of the trucking community on LOS determinants were explored through two focus group meetings with truck drivers and one with truck company managers. The quality of a truck trip was found to depend primarily on travel safety, travel time, and physical and psychological driving comfort. Truck drivers showed more concern with driving comfort while truck company managers were more concerned with travel time. Travel safety was a major concern for both groups. The trucking community uses freeways mainly to save travel time, but travel safety and driving comfort are accordingly important for the high travel speed and long travel time. It is important on arterials to maneuver easily and safely with all the physical and operational deterrents, and travel time is a concern as traffic becomes congested. Travel safety and driving comfort are emphasized on two-lane highways due to space limitations and special characteristics of trucks while travel time matters as the facility is primarily used for long-haul trips. Potential performance measures and roadway, traffic, and control factors to evaluate transportation LOS for the truck mode were identified for each road facility type.},

abstract = {Among several strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles, “eco-driving” is one that had not received much attention in the United States until recently. The basic idea of any eco-driving program is to provide drivers with a variety of advice and feedback to minimize fuel consumption (and emissions) while driving. We have recently carried out an eco-driving study in Southern California. This study evaluated how an on-board eco-driving device that provides instantaneous fuel economy feedback affects driving behavior, and the resulting fuel economy, of a limited number of gasoline-engine vehicle drivers in Southern California under real- world driving conditions. The results from 20 driver samples show that, on average, the fuel economy on city streets improves by 6{\%} while the fuel economy on highways improves by only 1{\%}. The low improvement on highways may partly be due to the mostly congested freeways in the study area, which already constrained the driving. According to responses to the questionnaire at the end of the study period, the group of participating drivers were willing to adopt eco-driving practices in the near future (mean score of 7.4 out of 10). In fact, 40{\%} of them have already practiced eco- driving, which may also be another reason for relatively low fuel economy improvements found in this study. For this group of drivers, the eco-driving adoption rate could go up to 95{\%} if the gasoline price increased above {\$}4 per gallon. Additional research is needed at a larger scale and for a longer time period.},

abstract = {Heavy-duty diesel trucks are a significant source of carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, and particulate matter emissions. The construction of accurate emission inventories of these trucks requires a proper characterization of their speed because emission rates vary substantially by speed. However, data regarding truck speed have been very limited to date. This paper presents a statistical method for estimating truck traffic speed that takes advantage of the existing traffic monitoring systems. By examining traffic data from these systems, it was found that truck traffic speed can be effectively estimated based on the knowledge of the overall traffic speed alone. The 10 relationships between the two variables are shown to be very strong with the coefficient of determination of the regression equations being 0.98 or higher, and all the regression coefficients are found to be statistically significant at the 5{\%} alpha level. In addition, the validation results of the estimated truck traffic speed show a very good estimation performance of the regression 14 equations where most of the average absolute errors are within the range of 2-4 mph. Based on the developed statistical relationship, regional truck activity in terms of vehicle miles traveled versus speed distribution on Southern California freeways was estimated and used to construct the associated running exhaust emission inventories. The resulting emission inventories show that using the heavy-duty diesel truck-specific speed distribution rather the overall speed distribution reduces the estimates of oxides of nitrogen emissions by 4{\%} and particulate matter emissions by 26{\%}.},

The potential for mobility improvement in general purpose lanes as a consequence of diverting traffic around an incident using existing managed lanes and the resulting degradation in managed lane performance are considered in a case study. Results from experiments employing the developed simulation tool show that the benefit to general traffic from implementation of a diversion strategy depends on the following factors: the location of the incident scene relative to the starting point of the diversion opening, the total length of access to the managed lane under the diversion strategy, incident duration, and number of lanes blocked (i.e., incident severity). When diversion implementation lags, travel time reductions achieved through diversion are diminished.},

While much of the research on TSP has focused on large, urban areas, 4 this project seeks to determine the benefits of TSP in a town of 50,000: Blacksburg, VA. As a 5 college town, Blacksburg has a significant attractor in the university and an excellent transit 6 network. The road modeled for this analysis runs on the north side of campus, and three 7 intersections were included in the analysis. A total of 56 busses per hour move through the 8 network. The VISSIM model was constructed based on existing timing and PM peak hour traffic 9 flows. Maximum transit extension times were varied from zero to 45 seconds in five second 10 intervals. Based on statistical analysis, it is recommended that the signals be reprogrammed to 11 allow 20 seconds of transit green extension. This will decrease bus delay by 15 percent, decrease 12 bus stops by six percent, and increase car delay by five percent while having no impact on car 13 stops and heavy vehicles. 14 15 16 (191 Words) 17 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Lane changes are important in quantifying traffic for both operational and planning purposes. Traditional in-lane loop detectors do not count lane changes; hence, historically, traffic engineers have estimated them using other data sources. This paper provides a method for estimating the number of lane changes based on observations of “straddling” vehicles that are simultaneously detected by the loops in adjacent lanes. In the data considered here, such “straddles” almost always correspond to vehicles that are in the process of changing lanes. However, many lane changes take place between detector sites and, hence, do not result in straddles. The methods developed here estimate probability distribution for the number of lane changes given an observed number of straddles. The efficacy of this approach depends on calibration issues and on the size of the aggregation period. In the evaluation study presented here, the results are good: The proposed method gives the number of lane changes with approximately10{\%}error, even though the number of lane changes per aggregation period varies by a factor of 10 over time.},

In spring 2010, in the Paris region, a stated preference survey was designed and conducted to investigate the preferred types of intermodal bicycle facilities at stations. For that, 18 situations were simulated with photographs and short texts. Each situation combined the values of six attributes: access route (cycle path, none), site protection (open air, shelter, warden, smart card control, lockers), securing provision (nothing, pole, stand, grip), distance to platforms (50 meters, 200 meters), operation time (24 hours, 20 hours, peak hours only), user fee (free, 10 euro per month, 20 euro per month). The respondents were asked to rate their satisfaction level with the situation on a six-level scale. Respondents were recruited among cyclists by e-mail, on cycling forums and on a bicycle second-hand market. Despite a limited number of respondents, a cumulative logit model could estimate the effects of most attribute items. Respondents were most satisfied with lockers, then simple shelters, and most dissatisfied with fees and lack of cycle paths. Moreover, qualitative comments by respondents helped at understanding how the general quality of the facilities was valued. In particular, despite the relatively low estimation for stands, many comments confirm that they are essential theft-proof devices.},

Total onboard miles are inferred by taking advantage of symmetries in bus passengers' daily activity patterns. NYCT's algorithm utilizes rigourously-tested engineering assumptions to detect common data errors from mechanical failures, imperfect driver-farebox interactions, and operational reality, applying statistically measured adjustment factors to correct or interpolate for missing passengers from non-AFC boardings and malfunctions. Surveys revealed that under typical operating conditions, non-AFC passengers and farebox data transmission errors accounted for 12{\%} and 5½{\%} of missing ridership, respectively. The fault-tolerant algorithm uses non-geographic transaction data from an AFC system without Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL) functionality, directly computing aggregate passenger-miles by inferring origin locations from transaction timestamps using scheduled average speed assumptions, and without assigning each passenger's precise destination. NYCT focused on fully automatic, production-ready algorithms by rejecting alternatives requiring excessive coding effort, processor time, difficult-to-obtain data, or manual intervention in favour of logical inference, statistical estimation, and symmetry. Meticulous parallel testing demonstrated that resulting average trip lengths are stable across days and correlate well with manually collected stop-by-stop ridership data. Annual passenger-miles are within –1{\%} to 4{\%} of the National Transit Database (NTD) ±10{\%} sample data and were approved by Federal Transit Administration (FTA) for NTD Section 15 submission.},

BCT does so with a grid of bus routes serving highly dispersed destinations 32 situated along high speed arterial roads. Despite its unpromising situation that is emblematic of sprawl 33 in much of the U.S., BCT attracts more ridership per capita and more passenger miles per bus mile than 34 the best of the CBD-oriented bus systems in U.S. mid-sized urban areas. This study seeks to understand 35 why. It does so by estimating a model that predicts transit ridership between two traffic analysis zones 36 as a function of transit travel time between the zones and characteristics of the origin and destination 37 zones, including what are known as transit oriented development (TOD) characteristics. The model is 38 estimated on 2000 and 2005 data for transit travel between roughly 800,000 pairs of traffic analysis 39 zones in Broward County, Florida. Results show that reducing travel time between origin and destination 40 is by far the most effective policy for increasing transit traffic. Transit policies that take people where 41 they want to go in sprawled areas are far more productive for increasing transit ridership than policies 42 that attempt to concentrate development around existing transit systems. 43 44 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. 2 1 2 Introduction 3 This study seeks to understand the relative efficacy of two classes of policies intended to 4 increase transit ridership and productivity in Florida. One class of policies seeks to improve transit 5 effectiveness by freezing transit service in the older parts of metropolitan areas (where it is thought that 6 higher densities of population and employment and the presence of pedestrian amenities induce higher 7 levels of transit demand) and directing new population and employment growth to redeveloped areas 8 around transit stops in the older areas. The other class of policies seeks to connect employment and 9 population, wherever it locates, as directly as possible by transit routes. The thrust of transit 10 development of this second category of policies is in the newer rather than older parts of metropolitan 11 areas, because it is in the newer areas where most population and employment growth is located. 12 The method used for testing the hypotheses statistically estimates a model that predicts bus 13 riders between every pair of traffic analysis zones in Broward County, in order to understand the 14 importance of variables that might give rise to that ridership. Explanatory variables include indicators of 15 whether origin or destination zones are TODs as well as the time required to travel between the zones 16 by transit, and control variables. The purpose of the analysis is to determine the relative importance of 17 the TOD and transit friction variables. 18 The examination focuses on transit in Broward County, Florida, a county of somewhat more 19 than a million people where there is no historic central business district (CBD). Downtown Ft. Lauderdale 20 is the largest urban center. Bus transit in the county is organized in a grid pattern along the county's 21 major arterials. Residents from most parts of the county can reach employment in most parts of the 22 county, even though most residences and most jobs are sprawled. Most transit users in Broward County 23 travel to the dispersed destinations; relatively few travel to the Ft. Lauderdale downtown, the closest 24 approximation to a CBD in the county. Because of the success of the transit system in taking riders to 25 dispersed jobs, the system's performance is high. As measured from the National Transit Data Base, 26 Broward County transit riding habit increased from about 65 passenger miles per capita in 1984 to more 27 than 90 in 2006, while productivity measured in passenger miles per bus mile held between 10 and 11 28 throughout this 22 year period. Comparing this performance to performance of all bus transit systems 29 focused on CBDs in U.S. urban areas of between one and five million people [1], we were astonished to 30 find that by 2006 bus transit in suburban Broward County out-performed every single CBD-focused bus 31 system in the U.S. in the one to five million population range in terms of both productivity and riding 32 habit. The purpose of this research is to understand what variables contribute to the success of transit in 33 Broward County. 34 35 Research on the topic 36 Over the past two decades, there has been a great deal of interest in the relationship between 37 local land use patterns near bus and rail transit lines, stops, and stations and transit ridership. Often 38 lumped under the label of transit-oriented development (TOD), this body of literature hypothesizes that 39 the density, land use mix, and urban design characteristics of a neighborhood can influence individual 40 mode choice decisions [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. There is an extensive literature on the 41 subject, much of which builds on work by Robert Cervero. 42 A few TOD studies, mostly based on surveys or residents, find that TODs increase transit 43 ridership very little [3][14]. Most other, based on cross section statistical analysis, find a significant 44 impact. There is a possibility that the findings are overstated, because they typically do not control for 45 level of transit service. Such studies may conclude that TOD increase transit use. The conclusion may, in 46 fact, be valid. It also may be invalid if transit use is influenced by better transit service that tends to be 47 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Data from the 2006 Census of Ireland are analysed in this paper to ascertain the characteristics of these households. The analysis of multiple car ownership presented in this paper examines both individual specific characteristics and household characteristics to provide an indication of the individuals most likely to have access to more than one vehicle.  Understanding the characteristics of households with more than one car is important for many reasons. Ireland, like many countries has recently launched a number of electric vehicle and car sharing schemes.  Traditionally these schemes have been aimed at reducing multiple car ownership, therefore it's important to develop an understanding of the households that would be most likely give up an extra car and use a car club or an electric vehicle. The results of this paper show that several factors impact upon multiple car ownership.  Factors such as socio-economic grouping, residential density, household structure, and public transport availability all have significant impacts upon the decision to own more than one car.  The findings of the binary logistic regression modelling are applied to find an area in Dublin that has high potential for either changing the households' second or third vehicle to an electric car or the use of a car club.},

abstract = {This study investigates the use of road networks both within and outside of home jurisdictions (city (or town) and county of residence) by analyzing GPS data collected in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metropolitan area. The study tracked volunteers' travel behavior to determine which roads (and thus which class of roads) users chose to accommodate their travel needs. More than half of the travel on county roads and city streets occur outside of one's home city, but most travel is within one's home county. The average share of travel distance in the home county is more than 70{\%} for both county and city streets. The high share, which does not account for non-residents destined for the county to work or shop, e.g., implies that the free rider problem on city and county streets at the county level is minimal. Of particular concern is travel on city roads in cities other than one's own. To the extent that this is to go to a destination in that city, that travel is also local. However, because city and county roads are typically funded by those jurisdictions from land-based sources such as property taxes, through trips with neither end in the city through which they are traveling are in a very real sense " free riders" , and pose a problem. With growing trip lengths and emerging economies of scale in road management, it may be appropriate to consider moving more roads from township, town, or city level to the county level of government. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

CSS provides a systematic and 4 comprehensive approach to project development from inception and planning through 5 operations and maintenance. Recently, the economic constraints that several state DOTs have 6 faced have created a new emphasis on financial issues as they relate to project development. 7 Practical Design and Practical Solutions are a process that emphasizes design solutions that 8 aims to achieve the maximum rate of return on the individual project and maximize system 9 returns. As a result the concepts of Practical Design and Practical Solutions have seemingly 10 clashed with CSS. On the contrary, these concepts address and emphasize the system-wide 11 optimization which was not addressed by CSS. Moreover, they improve CSS applications and 12 principles by further refining them and they potentially could add the need to consider system-13 wide improvements. The main conclusion from the work presented here is that a systematic, 14 principle-driven, benefit-justified project development process is necessary to deliver the 15 appropriate project. This paper presents the concepts and issues for each and compares their 16 approaches aiming to initiate a dialogue on understanding these approaches and improving the 17 project development process so that it is more comprehensively performance oriented. 18 19 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The article uses a hybrid discrete choice modelling technique to jointly model the consideration of carpooling in the choice set formation as well as commuting mode choice together with the response bias corrections through the accommodation of measurement equations. A cross-nested error structure for the econometric formulation is used to capture correlations among various commuting modes and carpool consideration in the choice set. Empirical models are estimated using a data set collected through a week-long commuter survey in Edmonton, Alberta. The empirical model reveals many behavioural details of commuting mode choice and carpooling. Interestingly, it reveals that interactions between various Travel Demand Management (TDM) tools with the carpooling option can be different at different level of decision making (choice set formation level and final choice making level)},

This was accomplished by comparing the impacts of HOT lanes on three pairs of HOT lanes with similar design and operational characteristics. These pairwise comparisons of similar HOT lanes reduced the impact of exogenous factors and removed the issue of comparing HOT lanes that were so dissimilar it would be impossible to isolate the reasons for difference in results from the lanes. With strict registration requirements for free high occupancy vehicle (HOV) 3+ travel on the I-95 Express Lanes (ELs) in Miami there were indications that some carpoolers switched to lower occupancy modes. Tolled access for HOV2s on I-95 and the SR-91 ELs near Los Angeles resulted in lower usage of those ELs by the HOV2s as compared to most HOV lanes where HOV2 access is free. On the SR167 (Seattle) and I-25 (Denver) HOT lanes, exogenous factors like the price of gas and the economic recession seemed to be the primary influence on the usage of those HOT lanes. In both cases, carpool usage increased along with the price of gas. On I-25, the increasing unemployment rate coincided with a decrease in toll paying travelers. On SR 167 there were also indications of mode shifts among the transit, carpool and toll paying SOVs due to the fluctuating price of gas.},

This paper describes how these sensors can be enhanced to measure not only the presence and speed of a vehicle but also its acceleration and travel time. While acceleration of vehicles is of independent interest, knowledge of the acceleration of a vehicle can also be used to normalize vehicular signatures to increase significantly the probability of successfully reidentifying vehicles to generate travel time estimates. In this paper, the acceleration correction for vehicle reidentification is developed and analyzed in terms of the percentage of vehicles correctly matched and in the framework of a communication system's receiver operating characteristic. The percentage of vehicles correctly matched for the travel time estimation is increased from 55.1{\%} when only the speed of the passing vehicles is used to 64.5{\%} and the acceleration estimates are also used.},

abstract = {The algorithms used for simulating pavement deterioration in stochastic models require a transition probability matrix that defines defect progression. A method for the derivation of transition probability matrices utilizing deterministic deterioration models, coupled with an estimate of scatter or confidence in the model, is described. This has been taken forward and encapsulated in an analytical tool, called the transition matrix calculator, to assist the engineer in the formulation of transition probability matrices. The optimisation process consists of obtaining the transition probabilities that minimise the difference between the condition distributions obtained from the deterministic model over the analysis period, and those obtained from the transition probability matrix itself. The transition matrix calculator is demonstrated, producing a transition probability matrix for the prediction of the Riding Comfort Index. The resulting 'goodness of fit' is visually assessed by comparing the deterioration trend line for the original deterministic model with that obtained from the resultant transition probability matrix, as represented by the average of the yearly distributions. In addition, the yearly distributions of condition are also compared to assess the success or otherwise of the optimisation process in replicating the deterioration patterns of the original deterministic model. However, it is important to note that regardless of the accuracy of the transition matrix calculator in its function, the predictive power of the resulting transition probability matrix depends solely on the accuracy of the original inputs, i.e. the deterministic model and its associated scatter.},

This paper proposes a reliable sensor location model to optimize surveillance effectiveness when sensors are subject to site-dependent probabilistic failures, and a general effectiveness measure is proposed to encompass most existing measures needed for engineering practice (e.g., flow volume coverage, vehicle-mile coverage, and squared error reduction). The problem is first formulated into a compact mixed-integer program, and we develop a variety of solution algorithms (including a custom-designed Lagrangian relaxation algorithm) and analyze their properties. We also propose alternative formulations including a continuum approximation model for single corridor problems and reliable fixed-charge sensor location models. Numerical case studies are conducted to test the performance of the proposed algorithms and draw managerial insights on how different parameter settings (e.g., failure probability and spatial heterogeneity) affect overall surveillance effectiveness and the optimal sensor deployment.

It demonstrates 4 the feasibility and ease of applying trip-chaining to infer bus passengers' boarding and alighting 5 locations from smart card fare transactions and automatic vehicle location data, and is the first 6 known attempt to validate the results by comparing them with the manual passenger survey data. 7 With the inferred OD matrices, the variations of weekday and weekend bus route OD patterns 8 over a two-week period are examined for planning purposes. Given these variations, reliance on 9 ADCS can provide transit planners with more comprehensive, reliable and accurate information 10 for service planning than traditional manual surveys. 11 Moreover, while interchange conditions and performance are considered important inputs 12 for public transit planning, collecting such data has not been easy. Based on the inferred OD 13 matrices and the Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) data, alighting times for bus passengers can 14 also be estimated. As a result, bus journey stages can easily be linked based on the difference 15 between the subsequent trip's boarding time and the previous trip's alighting time for each bus 16 passenger. By comparing the interchange time and the connecting bus route's headway, this 17 research also provides a way to evaluate connections between bus services. 18 The results of this research can be expanded to the full bus network and to other travel 19 modes, providing new and more comprehensive databases for use in intermodal network 20 planning. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 Wang, Attanucci and Wilson 3 INTRODUCTION},

We analyze the agency and user cost components of this proposed system in idealized square cities and seek the optimum network layout, service area of each bus, and bus headway, to minimize the total system cost. We compare the performance of the proposed transit system with those of comparable systems (e.g., fixed-route transit network and taxi service), and show how each system is advantageous under certain passenger demand levels.

The discrete model is shown to be suitable for obtaining the exact optimality for small or moderate instances, while the continuous model has superior computational tractability for large-scale applications. The impacts of both site-independent and dependent disruptions (i.e., due to flooding) are analyzed in empirical case study for the State of Illinois (one of the main biomass supply states in the U.S.). The reliable solution is compared with a deterministic solution under the same setting. It is found that refinery disruptions, especially those site-dependent ones, affect both optimal refinery deployment and the supply chain cost. Sensitivity analysis is also conducted to show how refinery failure probability and fixed cost (for building biorefineries) affect optimal supply chain configuration and the total expected system cost.},

The method developed in this paper links the level of service – 3 obtained from both traffic mean flows and speeds – to the number of accidents observed on a 4 road section. The objective is to use this relationship in a priori assessments of traffic 5 management strategies using traffic simulation tools. Indeed, flows and speeds represent the 6 main outputs of such models and are assumed to be influenced by other parameters such as the 7 road geometry, lighting and weather conditions. Four levels of service are considered according 8 to the classification used in several European countries. They define traffic conditions from free-9 flow to congestion. The study uses accident and traffic data collected for a 9-year period on a 17-10 km stretch of the A1 motorway in the Paris region. An accident rate is computed for each level 11 of service. The results confirm the existence of a relationship between accident rates and the 12 level of service, with more accidents being observed during congestion. An application example 13 on a real case study illustrates the use of the proposed method for a priori assessments of traffic 14 management strategies. 15 16 Keywords 17 Accidents, traffic management, level of service, safety, macroscopic simulation. 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {This article examines the impacts of bike lanes and bike paths on cycling levels in the 100 largest U.S. cities. The analysis is based on a newly assembled dataset on the length of bike lanes and paths collected directly from each city for the year 2008. Pearson's correlation, bivariate quartile analysis, and three different types of regressions were used to measure the differential impacts of bike paths and lanes, as well as other explanatory and control variables. Ordinary Least Squares, Two Stage Least Squares, and Binary Logit Proportions regressions confirm that cities with a greater supply of bike paths and lanes have significantly higher cycling levels—even when controlling for land-use, climate, socioeconomic factors, cycling safety, and geography. Standard tests indicate that the models are a good fit, with R2 ranging between 0.57 and 0.67. Computed coefficients have the expected signs for almost all variables in the various regression models. Estimated elasticities indicate that both off-street paths and on-street lanes have a similar positive association with cycling commute levels in U.S. cities ($\epsilon${\~{}}|+0.25|). Our results validate earlier findings on the importance of separate facilities and provide additional information about potentially different impacts of paths vs. lanes. 2},

Operating speed models for two-lane rural 4 highway tangents and for horizontal curves on low-speed urban streets also exist, but are less 5 developed. These models, estimated primarily using ordinary least squares regression, generally 6 use aggregate-level data to estimate the effect of geometric design variables on the mean or 85 th -7 percentile operating speed, but do not explicitly consider measures of speed dispersion (e.g., 8 standard deviation). Most existing models consider speeds of free-flow passenger vehicles; 9 traffic flow effects on speed are generally not quantified. Finally, published literature shows that 10 researchers have not converged on a consistent modeling practice regarding the use of posted 11 speed limit as an explanatory variable in operating speed models. Collectively, these issues may 12 lead to design consistency assessments that are not truly reflective of the operating conditions 13 present along a two-lane highway. These issues are explored in this paper using operating speed 14 data collected at multiple points along eight two-lane highway segments. A simultaneous 15 equations approach is used to estimate a three-equation model of the posted speed limit, mean 16 speed, and speed deviation. The predicted 85 th -percentile speed is compared to the observed 85 th 17 percentile speed along a high-speed, two-lane rural highway. Predicted 85 th -percentile operating 18 speeds along the same high-speed highway using the IHSDM design consistency module are also 19 compared to observed 85 th percentile speeds as a basis for evaluating the simultaneous equations 20 approach. Finally, an alternative design consistency evaluation approach is proposed using 21 inferred design speed.},

abstract = {34 Increasingly, significant levels of congestion are being experienced in many urban areas where, and 35 when, and travel used to be easy. In fact, it is the norm today to encounter heavy congestion during off-36 peak periods and at weekends. However, most models and planning frameworks rely on the AM peak 37 period figures for a typical weekday and important decisions are based on their results. A better 38 understanding of the changes occurring in metropolitan areas is required to assist in decision-making, and 39 at the same time the evolution of the data and methods used must be continuously monitored. In such a 40 context, it is important to ask questions about specific travel behaviors on weekdays and on weekend 41 days, and about how they vary throughout the year. So, the concept of a " typical " weekday needs to be 42 challenged for modeling purposes, and updated to a concept that will more thoroughly represent the 43 complexity of travel and activity behaviors. 44 With the benefit of the availability of the large-scale origin-destination travel surveys regularly 45 carried out in the Greater Montreal Area, this paper illustrates how such data can help assess the 46 variability of behaviors. Using critical indicators of travel behaviors and statistical methods, our research 47 confirms that behavior significantly differs across the days of the week. It demonstrates that there are four 48 typical days for work trips, two for study trips, and five for shopping trips during a seven-day period. 49 50},

abstract = {In the Minneapolis-St. Paul region (Twin Cities), the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn- DOT) converted the Interstate 394 High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes to High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes (or MnPASS Express Lanes). These lanes allow single occupancy vehicles (SOV) to access the HOV lanes by paying a fee. This fee is adjusted according to a dynamic pricing system that varies with the current demand. This paper estimates the value placed by the travelers on the HOT lanes because of improvements in travel time reliability. This value depends on how the travelers regard a route with predictable travel times (or small travel time variability) in comparison to another with unpredictable travel times (or high travel time variability). For this purpose, commuters are recruited and equipped with Global Positioning System (GPS) devices and instructed to commute for two weeks on each of three plausible alternatives between their home in the western suburbs of Minneapolis eastbound to work in downtown or the University of Minnesota: I-394 HOT lanes, I-394 General Purpose lanes (untolled), and signalized arterials close to the I-394 corridor. They are then given the opportunity to travel on their preferred route after experiencing each alternative. This revealed preference data is then analyzed using mixed logit route choice models. Three measures of reliability are explored and incorporated in the esti- mation of the models: standard deviation (a classical measure in the research literature); shortened right range (typically found in departure time choice models); and interquartile range (75th - 25th percentile). Each of these measures represents distinct ways about how travelers deal with different sections of reli- ability. In all the models, it was found that reliability was valued highly (and statistically significantly), but differently according to how it was defined. The estimated value of reliability in each of the models indicates that commuters are willing to pay a fee for a reliable route depending on how they value their reliability savings.},

abstract = {1 Using a stochastic approach, this study examined and modeled the basic stochastic 2 characteristics of freeway traffic behavior under a wide range of traffic conditions during 3 peak periods and then applied the models to short-term traffic speed prediction. The 4 speed transition probabilities were estimated from the real world 30-second speed data 5 collected over a 6-year period on the 38-mile corridor of I-4 in Orlando, Florida. The 6 cumulative negative/positive transition probabilities and expected values were derived 7 from the transition probabilities and fitted using logistic and exponential models, 8 respectively. The expected value associated with the most likely transition of speed was 9 derived from the fitted models and used as the predicted speed. Each predicted speed 10 was also associated with a probability value indicating the chance of observing such 11 transition. The model performance was evaluated using Root Mean Square Errors 12 (RMSE). Relatively small prediction errors of nearly 5 mph were observed. Also, the 13 prediction performance was slightly affected by location, travel direction, and peak 14 period. The study concluded that the behavior of freeway traffic can be modeled as a 15 stochastic process, which can subsequently be applied to short-term traffic condition 16 prediction during peak periods. 17 KEYWORDS},

abstract = {The paper proposes an innovative methodology for addressing the issue of the optimal link count sections location, based on the proposition of a reliability measure in which the prior accuracy of the o-d matrix estimate, that is its statistical distribution rather its prior punctual estimate, is explicitly considered, together with its posterior distribution conditioned on a given subset of link count locations. Notably, the proposed measure, under the mild assumptions of prior normal distribution and through appropriate algebraic rotations of the reference system, is proved not to depend on the unknown values of the counted flows, and this is actually the key point allowing for effective implementation of a fast and operational procedure based on this mathematical framework, in the sense stated in the introduction. By way of an example, toy network and real network applications are presented, in order to show how a heterogeneous level of knowledge across o-d pairs may lead to the choice of counting sections different from those resulting from the commonly adopted procedures. The proposed methodology allows for a more effective theoretical interpretation of the phenomenon and leads to a very efficient computational procedure, suitable also in real size networks, whose results outperform those obtained with the methods to date available in the literature.},

We present a multidimensional discrete-continuous model formulation for the built space supply decisions that are based on expected profit maximization. The framework is applied to estimate a model for supply of new office space in the greater Toronto area (GTA) for the 1986 to 2006 period. To our knowledge, this work is the first that models the where, when, how much, and what type of office space to build in a single econometric framework at a fairly disaggregate spatial zoning system. The results indicate risk taker behavior on the builders' part, while market conditions and supply of resources (labor, construction cost, etc.) are also found to be important factors in decision making.},

abstract = {Evaluation of crash-related injuries by medical specialists in hospitals is believed to be more exact than rather a cursory evaluation made at the crash scene. Safety analysts sometimes reach for hospital data and use them in combination with the police crash data. One issue that needs to be addressed is the, so-called, selectivity (or selection) bias possible when data used in analysis are not coming from random sampling. If not properly addressed, this issue can lead to a considerable bias in both the model coefficient estimates and the model predictions. This paper investigates pedestrian injury severity factors using linked police-hospital data. A bivariate ordered probit model with sample selection is used to check for the presence of the selectivity bias and to account for it in the MAIS estimates on the Maximum Abbreviated Injury Scale (MAIS). The presence of the sample selection issue has been confirmed. The selectivity bias is considerable in predictions of low injury levels. The pedestrian injury analysis identified and estimated several severity factors, including pedestrian, road, and vehicle characteristics. Male and older pedestrians were found to be particularly exposed to severe injuries. Rural roads and high-speed urban roads appear to be more dangerous for pedestrians, particularly when crossing such roads. Crossing a road between intersections was found to be particularly dangerous behavior. The size and weight of the vehicle involved in a pedestrian crash were also found to have an effect on the pedestrian injury level. The relevant safety countermeasures that may improve pedestrian safety have been proposed. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

(3) On basis of two conclusions above, two average 7 vehicle delay models, applying to absolute priority and limited priority conditions, were 8 established respectively. (4) Comparing the average vehicle delay before and after signal control, 9 the critical volume curve of installing traffic signal for three common cross patterns, i.e. 1/1, 1/2, 10 2/2 cross, were presented. 11 Comparing with the absolute priority condition, the results show that the average increments of 12 critical volume under the limited condition were 20.33{\%}, 20.95{\%} and 21.43{\%} under 1/1, 1/2, 2/2 13 cross, respectively. According to filed survey date in Changchun city China, the critical volume 14 curve was proved to be more corresponding to actual data than MUTCD warrant {\#}3. Therefore, 15 this paper may provide a new reference for revising MUTCD warrant {\#}3 considering complex 16 traffic conditions in developing country.},

abstract = {1 2 Many cities have deployed exclusive bus lanes on arterial streets to improve bus transit services. 3 Because of right-of-way constraints and safety concerns, on-line linear bus stops with no 4 provisions for buses to pass each other are often the only practical means for passenger services 5 in such lanes. How to improve the capacities of bus lanes with this type of stops and how to 6 respond to requests for greater access to bus lanes by bus companies are pressing issues for 7 Taipei, Taiwan. To provide a decision-support tool to address these issues, field observations and 8 simulation analyses are conducted to examine the relationships between capacity and its 9 influencing factors. The analyses reveal complex relationships that are difficult to model 10 analytically. Findings of field observations and simulation analyses along with an approach to 11 enhancing transportation professionals' capabilities for capacity analysis are discussed. 12 13 14 INTRODUCTION 15 16 To encourage the use of bus transit systems, many cities have implemented exclusive bus lanes 17 on arterial streets to improve the quality of service. Because of right-of-way constraints and 18 safety concerns, a bus lane on an arterial street may have to use on-line linear loading berths 19 without provisions for buses to pass each other. A case in point is the bus transit system in 20 Taipei, Taiwan. This system has 301 bus lines run by 10 companies. Many of these lines share 21 11 routes of exclusive bus lanes that total 59 lane-km. A typical bus lane is previously an express 22 lane on a street that has express lanes and mixed-vehicle lanes. Because a bus stop is shared by 23 many bus lines, some stops have heavy congestions during peak hours. Using portions of the 24 wide islands that separate express lanes and mixed-traffic lanes on some streets to provide off-25 line loading berths has met strong opposition because of the need to cut down trees on the 26 islands. At the same time, there is a strong demand by some bus companies for greater access to 27 the exclusive bus lanes. How existing bus lanes can be made more efficient and how best to 28 address the demand for a greater access to bus lanes are pressing issues. Resolving these issues 29 requires a practical and versatile tool for estimating bus lane capacities and assessing qualities of 30 service. It also requires a good understanding of the relationships between bus lane capacities 31 and their influencing factors. 32 To meet the aforementioned needs, the Institute of Transportation (IOT) in Taiwan 33 initiated a study to collect and use field data to calibrate the Highway Traffic Systems Simulation 34 (HTSS) Model that is being used in Taiwan to support highway capacity analysis (1). Subsequent 35 simulation analyses based on the HTSS model reveal complex relationships between bus lane 36 capacities and their influencing factors. Focusing on the capacities of exclusive bus lanes with 37 on-line linear bus stops that lie between signalized intersections, this paper first provides an 38 overview of the current practices in capacity analysis of bus transit services. It then summarizes 39 the findings of the aforementioned study and describes the IOT's approach to delivering a 40 capacity analysis tool to the transportation professionals in Taiwan. 41 42 43 44 45 46},

These pressures are exacerbated by the fact that the National Parks Authority does not have overall control for policy within the national parks. This paper draws on an extensive literature review to provide a brief overview of National Parks in the UK, the transport issues encountered by these National Parks and the planning and policy responses to them. Within this, the paper covers three specific aspects namely: opposition to traffic restraint where schemes proposing any form of vehicle restriction can be opposed at the local level, making their introduction publicly and politically unacceptable; initiatives can fail to meet conventional measures of success and as such schemes can be abandoned due to poor patronage or failure to meet pre-determined economic or social criteria; and finally in terms of planning and management practicalities: initiatives can be difficult to enforce across dispersed areas (for example parking strategies); funding for initiatives can be limited and short-term in nature; and activities can be difficult to co-ordinate and rely on the participation on a wide range of stakeholders.},

abstract = {In this paper, the conventional disaggregate travel demand model, a probability model for the modeling of multiple modes, generally called random utility maximization (RUM), is expanded to a model of count of mode choice. The extended travel demand model is derived from general economic theory-maximizing instantaneous utility on the time horizon, subject to a budget constraint-and can capture the dynamic behavior of countable travel demand. Because the model is for countable dependent variables, it has a more realistic set of assumptions to explain travel demand than the RUM model. An empirical test of the theoretical model using a toll facility user survey in the New York City area was performed. The results showed that the theoretical model explained more than 50{\%} of the trip frequency behavior observed in New York City toll facility users. Travel demand for toll facility users increased with respect to household employment, household vehicle count, and employer payment of tolls and decreased in terms of travel time, road pricing, travel distance, and mass transit access.},

The goal was to develop a portable system that can be easily deployed at a work 6 zone site to acquire and communicate important travel information, e.g., the travel time (TT) and start of 7 congestion (SoC) to the driver.. By providing this information, i.e., the SoC and Travel Time, drivers can 8 make informed decisions on route choice and be prepared for upcoming congestion. The system 9 composes of a portable Road Side Unit (RSU) which can engage the On Board Units (OBUs) of the 10 traveling vehicles using DSRC technology to acquire necessary traffic data (speed, time, and location). 11 From the acquired data, the RSU periodically estimates the SoC and the TT which are broadcasted to all 12 vehicles in its coverage range. An OBU receiving the broadcasted message calculates the distance to the 13 SoC. The distance to the SoC and the TT are then relayed to the driver who can make smart decisions 14 regarding whether to seek an alternate route and when to expect the sudden speed reduction. Results from 15 the field demonstration have shown that the developed system can adapt to changing work zone 16 environment smoothly under various congestion patterns on the road.},

This paper presents procedures that allow the variable nature of travel times to be incorporated within optimization methods for the vehicle routing problem with time windows. Expressions are presented for determining the penalty costs associated with truck arrivals at customer locations with time windows when the travel times between customers are normally distributed. Formulations of this problem using stochastic programming and robust optimization (RO) are presented. Stochastic programming procedures require numerical integration techniques to be used and thus are computationally demanding. However, RO allows solutions to be generated with only a limited number of travel time scenarios between customers and, thus provides a practical means of incorporating travel time variability. A procedure was developed for estimating the cost savings of implementing the RO solution. The benefits of explicitly considering the variability of travel times between customers were estimated using a case study based on a distribution problem in Melbourne, Australia.},

abstract = {Loop detectors are the most commonly used vehicle detector for freeway management. A loop detector consists of a physical loop of wire embedded in the pavement connected to a sensor located in a nearby cabinet. The sensor detects the presence or absence of vehicles over the loop and typically allows a user to manually select the sensitivity level of operation to accommodate for a wide range of responsiveness from the physical loop. In conventional practice, however, it is difficult to know the physical loop's responsiveness, which makes selecting the appropriate sensitivity level difficult. If the sensitivity and responsiveness are poorly matched it will degrade the detector's data and the performance of applications that use the data, including: traffic management, control, and traveler information. To resolve this often overlooked problem, this paper presents an algorithm to assess how well a loop detector sensitivity is set by calculating the daily median on-time from the data reported by the loop detector. The algorithm can be incorporated into conventional controller software or run off-line. The result can be used both to correct the detector on-times for an inappropriate sensitivity setting in software (e.g., via a multiplicative correction factor) and to trigger an alarm to dispatch a technician to adjust the hardware sensitivity. Plotting the daily median on-time over months or years can show how the detector performance evolves. The approach is then transposed to dual loop detectors to identify and correct for inaccurate spacing between the paired detectors. Finally the methodology is evaluated by comparing the single loop detector speed estimates and dual loop detector speed measurements against the concurrent velocities from a GPS equipped probe vehicle. While the focus of this paper is on loop detectors, with only minor modification the algorithm should also be applicable to other detector technologies, e.g., side-fire microwave radar.},

abstract = {1 Because of the development of scientific technology, drivers now have access to a variety of information 2 to assist their decision-making. In particular, an accurate prediction of travel time is very valuable to 3 drivers, who can use it to choose a route or decide on departure time. Although many researchers have 4 sought to enhance the accuracy of this prediction, such predictions are often limited by errors that result 5 from the lagged pattern of predicted travel time, the use of non-representative samples for making 6 predictions, and the use of inefficient and non-transferable models. In this paper, we propose a model for 7 predicting travel times based on the k-nearest neighborhood method and using data provided by the 8 vehicle-detector system and the automatic toll-collection system. By combining these two sets of data, the 9 model minimizes the limitations of each and enhances the prediction's accuracy. We also establish 10 criteria for traffic conditions that allow the direct use of data acquired from the automatic toll-collection 11 system as predicted travel time. The proposed model's predictions are compared with the predictions of 12 other models using actual data to show that the proposed model predicts travel times much more 13 accurately than other models do. We expect that the proposed model's predictions of travel time will be 14 free from the problems associated with an insufficient number of samples. Further, unlike the widely used 15 ANN and KF, the proposed model does not require long training programs, so the model is easily 16 transferable.},

We find that residents of ethnic-cluster neighborhoods are 7 less likely to commute to similar locations as their neighbors compared with residents of 8 non-cluster neighborhoods. That is to say, immigrants living in ethnic clusters exhibit an 9 increased likelihood of commuting by carpool despite the fact that their neighborhoods 10 are less amenable to carpool formation than are non-ethnic cluster neighborhoods. 11 However, this relationship is mediated by both the relative job richness of the 12 neighborhood and the ethnicity of the home cluster.

Since congestion pricing is a policy rather than a project, it is not automatically subject to the same level of benefit/cost review or impact review required of major road and transit infrastructure investments. However, experience to date with congestion pricing clearly shows that social and political acceptability are significant concerns that center on the equity and magnitude of expected impacts on travelers and non-travelers. Recognizing the need for more formal identification of benefits, costs and impacts, Oregon DOT developed and adopted an approach to explicitly assess potential impacts and benefits, with a screening process to identify the economic impact of proposed highway tolling schemes on users as well as non-users. These analytic procedures build on a series of research studies and represent a useful model for broader assessment of tolling and other transport pricing policies elsewhere.

Because the flooding of structures 4 on one stream can be affected by high flows on the other stream, it is important to know the 5 relationship between the joint exceedance probabilities on the confluent stream pair, that is, the 6 joint probability of the coincident flows. 7 The objective of the research summarized in this paper was to develop practical 8 procedures for estimating joint probabilities of design coincident flows at stream confluences and 9 guidelines for applying the procedures.

One is a strategy for determining a 12 set of exceedance probability combinations associated with the desired joint probability for 13 design based on copulas. The second is a series of conditional probability matrices for use in the 14 total probability method.

The new emphasis is on designs that accommodate all users and make what was once an automobile-oriented street into a complete street. Recognizing this growing trend, NCHRP funded a project to develop a multimodal level of service (LOS) methodology for inclusion in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). This new chapter in the HCM will make it possible to easily compare various designs to determine the one that provides the greatest LOS to all users. But what exactly are the most important criteria for designing a complete street? This research seeks to answer part of this question by exploring various cross-section layouts and how they affect the LOS scores of two of the four modes (bicycle and pedestrian) in the new methodology. Four right-of-way (ROW) widths were selected to provide a broad spectrum of possible ROWs from a small collector to a large arterial. Within each of these four widths, an automobile-oriented design is compared with a complete street design. The relationship between each of the bicycle and pedestrian LOS scores is then explored, along with the impact the complete street design has on the automobile throughput.},

It has been argued that the potential agglomeration benefits are large; if so, understanding them better would be useful in making funding decisions about public transport improvements. We reviewed theoretical and empirical literature on agglomeration as well as a small number of articles on transportation's role in agglomeration. The theoretical literature is useful in understanding possible avenues by which transportation improvements might affect agglomeration, although there is little discussion of public transport specifically. Relevant empirical studies tend to focus on metropolitan regions and use a generalized measure of transportation cost. But public transport impacts on agglomeration are likely to be different from road investment impacts. We identified several ways of conducting research building on this literature that would help evaluate the agglomeration impacts of public transport proposals: tracing the links between transport, agglomeration, and productivity; better motivating research using theories of agglomeration mechanisms; taking scale and redistribution into account; exploring the functional form of agglomeration economies; accounting for endogeneity in model structure; and considering development context. 1.},

In this paper, we develop a systematic approach for quantitative uncertainty analysis of a combined travel demand model (CTDM) using the analytical sensitivity-based method. The CTDM overcomes limitations of the sequential four-step procedure since it is based on a single unifying rationale. The analytical sensitivity-based method requires less computational effort than the sampling-based method. Meanwhile, the uncertainties stemmed from inputs and parameters can be treated separately so that the individual and collective effects of uncertainty on the outputs can be clearly assessed and quantified. Numerical examples are finally used to demonstrate the proposed sensitivity-based uncertainty analysis method for the CTDM.},

This study provides answers to those questions by investigating the performance of signal timing plans developed for various traffic count scenarios, at conditions of varying traffic demand. One key contribution of this study is accurate modeling of varying traffic conditions that were captured from field traffic counts during 155 weekdays in 2009. VISSIM's model of Park City, Utah, calibrated and validated in previous studies, was used to model field traffic conditions and to evaluate the quality of various signal timing plans. Results show that signal timing plans that are based on average traffic flows (mean, mode, and median) perform best (and are most robust) when exposed to day-to-day traffic flow variability. Results also show that although optimizing signal timings for higher traffic demand is suboptimal, this strategy is better than optimizing signals for lower traffic demand and should be used when sufficient traffic data are not available.},

abstract = {Assessing the impact of characteristics of the built environment on travel behavior can yield valuable tools for land use and transportation planning. Of particular interest are planning models that can estimate the effects of 'smart growth' planning. In this paper, a post-processor method of quantifying and searching for relationships among many aspects of travel behavior and the built environment is developed and applied to the Buffalo, NY area. A wide scope of travel behavior is examined, and over 50 variables, many of which are based on high-detail data sources, are examined for potentially quantifying the built environment. Linear modeling is then used to develop models relating travel behavior and the built environment, which could then be applied in a post-processor fashion to results from four-step travel models to provide some measure of sensitivity to built environment modifications. The study's findings demonstrate that mode choice is highly correlated to measures of the built environment, and that many of the principles of smart growth appear to be a valid way to encourage non-vehicle travel. Home-based VHT and VMT, on the other hand, appear to be affected by the built environment to a lesser degree.},

Through calculation of consumer surplus per geographical zone, effects of the road pricing schemes are analyzed per income group and geographical area in order to study equity effects. Simulation results suggest that road pricing can be both regressive and progressive depending on the design of the pricing scheme, this even before the use of revenues to compensate users.

abstract = {This paper discusses driver deceleration levels in a controlled field environment at the onset of a yellow indication on high-speed signalized intersection approaches using an in-vehicle differential Global Positioning System. The impacts of driver gender, driver age, roadway grade, mean approach speed, platooning scenarios (leading, following, or alone), and time to intersection (TTI) on driver deceleration levels were analyzed. This information is critical for the efficient and safe design of traffic signal clearance timings. The IntelliDrive initiative can gather information about the driver, subject vehicle, and surrounding traffic conditions to execute safe and customizable traffic signal indication change warnings. The results indicate that driver deceleration levels are significantly higher than the 3-m/s 2 deceleration level used in the state-of-the-practice traffic signal design guidelines. The mean deceleration level is 3.6 to 4.1 m/s 2 . The results can be used to enhance the design of yellow timings and may be integrated with the new IntelliDrive initiative to provide customizable driver warnings. The results demonstrate that driver deceleration levels are higher at shorter TTIs at the onset of yellow. Drivers are willing to exert deceleration levels in excess of 7 m/s 2 at short TTIs (less than 2.5 s). Furthermore, older drivers (60 years of age or older) employ greater deceleration levels compared with younger (under 40 years old) and middle-aged (between 40 and 59 years old) drivers. A driver following another vehicle that proceeds legally through an intersection without stopping exerts higher deceleration levels than drivers driving alone on a roadway or leading another vehicle, and drivers leading a platoon of vehicles are not affected by vehicles behind them.},

abstract = {1 Naturalistic driving studies have been conducted over the last 5 or more years; one frequent 2 technique applied to naturalistic data is the identification of crash, near crash and critical 3 incident events which are subjected to subsequent analysis. There is a need to develop 4 statistical methods that are applicable to these event data and to test their efficacy. This paper 5 addresses two issues in model development for naturalistic driving event data: testing for 6 omitted variable bias and exploring the advantages of hierarchical model structures in data 7 analysis. 8 Using data from the Virginia Tech 100-car study focusing on roadway departure events, a series 9 of logit models are used to estimate the probability of a crash/near crash occurring compared 10 to a critical incident. The models indicate a substantial omitted variable bias for estimation of 11 the effect of context variables, but little difference for driver variables. Variables characterizing 12 the effect of event variable such as driver distraction and precipitating event were particular 13 significant and of substantial magnitude in the models. These tests indicate that modeling of 14 naturalistic event data should include variables describing the attributes of the event, the driver 15 and context in order to reduce the likelihood of bias. 16 Hierarchical model structures offer the advantage of using driver-level predictors (e.g. years of 17 driving) to parameterize the effects of event attributes and contexts. The models thus reflect 18 how driver decisions are executed: drivers with particular characteristics (one level) find 19 themselves in particular contexts executing specific driving maneuvers (second level) leading to 20 certain outcomes. The paper concludes with suggestions for future research including the need 21 for testing with additional data sets and potential applications to analysis of crash surrogates. 22 23 24 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The performance of a 6-axle vehicle configuration operating at a maximum GVW of 100,000 pounds was studied over two roughly parallel routes between Augusta and Brewer, Maine. The existing route (Route 9) reflects current conditions where trucks over 80,000 pounds GVW are not allowed on I-95 north of State Route 3 due to federal weight restrictions. The alternative route (I-95) assumes trucks no heavier than 100,000 pounds GVW would be allowed to travel on I-95 north of State Route 3. Using a simulation model, weekly savings of as much as 338 to 675 gallons of fuel, 3.4 to 6.8 metric tons of CO2, 33.8 to 93.8 grams of PM and 8.3 to 24.8 pounds of NOx + NMHC were estimated for all trucks shifted to the I-95 route from Route 9 under the expanded GVW exemption. Extrapolating these findings to a previous study of the impacts on Maine transportation system from expanding the federal weight exemption, assuming these findings are representative of system-wide impacts, resulted in daily fuel savings of 194 gallons, a reduction in CO2 emissions of 2 metric tons, PM emission reductions of 12 grams, and reduced NOx + NMHC emissions of 60 pounds.},

We find that the transition largely consists of a pre-insertion transition and a relaxation process. These two processes are different but can be reasonably captured with a single model. The findings also suggest that lane-changing induces a regressive effect on driver characteristics: a timid driver (characterized by larger response time and minimum spacing) tends to become less timid and an aggressive driver less aggressive. We offer an extension to Newell's car-following model to describe this regressive effect and verify it using vehicle trajectory data. ?? 2012.},

The other 3 objective is to establish guidance for pedestrian crossing phase selection (two-way or scramble) 4 and for length of WALK phase when the scramble crossing pattern is used. 5 An optimization procedure for signal plans in an isolated intersection was developed. The 6 procedure can provide up to four vehicular phases with either the two-way or scramble 7 pedestrian crossing phase. Genetic Algorithms (GA) were used in finding suitable signal plans 8 because of the existence of a very large solution set. 9 Furthermore, the proposed GA procedure can generate contour diagrams as selection 10 guides to determine appropriate pedestrian crossing phases at an intersection with different 11 combinations of vehicle volumes and pedestrian volumes. The impacts of relative time values, 12 initial vehicle queues, and geometric designs on the pedestrian phase selection were also 13 determined. 14 According to the contour diagrams, in order to determine appropriate pedestrian crossing 15 phases, not only pedestrian volumes and right-turn vehicle volumes need be taken into account, 16 but also through (and left-turn) vehicle volumes should be considered. The scramble crossing 17 reduces delay when the conflicting pedestrian and right-turn vehicle volumes in approaches are 18 high and the through (and left-turn) vehicle volumes in the same approaches are relatively lower. 19 Otherwise, the scramble phase increases delay.},

abstract = {Improving the reliability of transit services is becoming a major concern for most operators. Holding vehicles at holding points, as a common operational strategy, can improve headway regularity and schedule punctuality, resulting in shorter waiting time at stops. But it will also add additional idle for passengers on board. Therefore, an optimal compromise has to be found by minimizing generalized costs, combining both waiting time and on-board time. Previous works on this topic only take mean waiting time into account. Important waiting time components like potential waiting time (also called buffer waiting time) are missing in the objective function. Furthermore, the proposed models are constrained to short headway routes. Waiting for services with long headways is not adequately modeled. The aim of this paper is to overcome these two noticeable limitations by modeling the holding problem with probability distribution functions for the actual times of vehicle arrivals and departures. The availability of automatic vehicle location (AVL) data at a growing number of transit agencies makes this stochastic approach practically feasible. The optimization problem is formulated for and solved by a heuristic algorithm. A hypothetical numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed stochastic modeling approach and the heuristic algorithm.},

In this context, adding on-street loading areas 3 in series is a valid method to increase bus stop capacity. A tandem bus stop is a linear bus stop with two 4 loading areas on a dedicated bus lane where buses serve depending on the sequence in which they arrive 5 at the stop since overtaking is not allowed. The objective of this paper is to provide an analytical 6 methodology to help city planners to choose between conventional and tandem bus stops. This study 7 focuses on the capacity gain of a tandem bus stop in the case where there are buses waiting in line. 8 Current studies are based on simulation results only for particular cases. The model is applied to 9 Barcelona, Spain, where the dwell time is described by a log-normal distribution according to the 10 available empirical data. The results obtained in this paper indicate that a capacity gain of 30 to 70{\%} can 11 be achieved, which allows for substantial commercial speed increasing. If buses spend more time at the 12 service position and the variability is low, the gain is greater. Our results suggest including in the Transit 13 Capacity and Quality of Service Manual a more detailed description of the behavior of urban tandem bus 14 stops, where the " effective number of berths " concept should be considered a variable (instead of 15 constant) that depends on the dwell time characteristics.},

An important aspect of collective egress under emergency conditions is the turning movement when a sudden change in the direction or the layout of the escape area occurs. Previous case studies of crowd disasters have highlighted the importance of such turning movements; however, both qualitative and quantitative studies seldom address this phenomenon specifically for emergency and panic situations. The paucity of complementary data on human panic presents a considerable challenge to undertaking quantitative analysis. The study described in this paper uses empirical data from real-life video footage of a crowd stampede and from panicking ants, paired with a simulation model, to demonstrate how potential problems and consequences of turning movements during collective dynamics can be studied. With this modeling tool, it may be possible to develop evacuation strategies and design solutions that can prevent stampedes and trampling, which occur when large groups of people try to escape from confined spaces where escape path directions abruptly change.},

Intuitively, denser and more 8 mixed-use developments likely lead to more concentrated and mixed traffic flows, resulting in 9 slower and more frequent stop-and-go movement and consequently more emissions. This paper 10 reports a case study of the Austin, TX region on the topic. The study first identifies mixed-use 11 developments (MXDs) that display desired built-environmental features. Next, the study 12 geocodes trip origins and destinations of the sampled individuals from the 2005 Austin Activity-13 Travel Survey. It then estimates travel mode choice and trip frequency, daily miles of driving, 14 the number of cold-starts, and vehicle emissions for those living inside verse outside MXDs. The 15 study shows a rather complex picture on the relationship among built environment, VMT, and 16 emissions. Region-wide, densification strategy potentially helps reduce regional VMT and 17 consequently decrease regional emissions. Locally, higher population density is associated with 18 higher emission density. This poses a challenge to the land use-based strategies for emission 19 reduction—densification and mixed-use development function like a double-edged sword in 20 terms of their effects on VMT and emissions. Supplemental policies are essential for land use 21 intervention to succeed in achieving emission reduction goals. 22 23},

abstract = {Drivers need enough Passing sight distance (PSD) to pass slower vehicles with safety. This can help to improve traffic operation on two-way two-lane highways. Existing models propose different values of PSD, according to different assumptions. Only in some cases these models were based on field data 5 of passing maneuvers. This research proposes the design of a new methodology to observe passing maneuvers on existing highways with help of video cameras installed on a fix point next to passing sections. The use of a larger number of cameras allows the complete registration of trajectories along the entire passing zone, with uniform image resolution. The methodology was applied to register a sample of 234 maneuvers on passing zones. Trajectories of 58 of them were completely described and 11 analyzed using specific restitution software. 12 Results are compared with existing PSD models. AASHTO model proposed distances travelled on the left lane are similar to average observed distances if the passed vehicle is one truck and between 50 and 100 m higher if one passenger car is passed. Higher differences, over 100 m, were found between measured data and PSD model of Hassan et al., especially at high design speeds. Observed average speed difference between passing and impeding vehicles is significantly higher than in all models. 18 Variables with strongest influence on the time and distance travelled on the opposing lane are: type and speed of the passed vehicle and the length of the passing zone. Left lane time and distance increase with this length.},

I have never been totally convinced about the use of trigonometric constraints in these types of models, but it seems to work fine here. We agree that the trigonometric utility functions are not so intuitive or necessarily the best solutions to the need for flexible specifications. They are used here because they allow a reasonably flexible shape for the utility function. In order to truly appreciate the utility functions' shapes, one may need a large number of variables, and this could lead to identification problems, particularly in our case, since we restrict the sample to only 997 observations.},

PABS was designed to be economical and simple to administer, so that it can be implemented in-house by community planners interested in learning about the quantity and purpose of walking and cycling trips made by their residents, as well as the socio-demographic characteristics of those who do (and don't) walk and cycle. A key concern with any survey is how " reliable " the questions are. Or, in other words, how accurately will people answer the survey questions? For this study, the PABS questionnaire was tested for reliability using the so-called " test-retest " method. The method asks respondents to fill out the questionnaire twice, several days apart, and then applies statistical tests to see how regularly people give the same answers both times they complete the questionnaire. Two versions of PABS were tested for reliability, and the test-retest results were then used to design a final questionnaire in which almost all survey questions achieved adequate to excellent reliability. Transportation surveys have not typically been tested for reliability, making the PABS questionnaire an important new option for improving data collection about travel behavior, particularly walking and cycling.},

The comparison was made using a very large data set containing the calling patterns of over 2 million unique cellular phones. The cellular phone data was collected through a probe vehicle traffic information system, which allowed the phone data to be separated into calls made in moving vehicles versus non-moving phones. The volume of in-vehicle calls made in September 2009 was compared to the volumes of calls made in February 2010 to determine the effects of the regulation on the use of phones while driving.

abstract = {This study aims to develop a model for evaluating the connectivity of a multimodal transit network. In order for the model to well represent characteristics of a multimodal transit network, connectivity should be analyzed based on nodes and transit lines of the network instead of nodes and links. The degree centrality of a node, which is a commonly used concept in social network analysis, is employed with appropriate modifications so that it is suitable for connectivity analysis for multimodal transit networks. As the representative characteristics of a transit line, we select its daily capacity, average speed, and length. We then define the connecting power of the line as the product of those quantities. Using the degree centrality of a transit stop and the connecting powers of transit lines serving the stop, we develop an index quantifying the level of connectivity of the stop. We also derive the connectivity index of a transit line as well as an area within the network from the connectivity indexes of transit stops. We show that the connectivity indexes of transit stops can be used to evaluate the connectivity of a transfer center. The connectivity evaluation model developed in this study takes well into consideration characteristics of multimodal transit networks, adequately measures the connectivity of transit stops, transit lines, and areas, and furthermore can be used in determining the level of service of transfer centers.},

This action would require the acquisition and removal of 35 houses to meet FAA airport design standards. The airport's most recent Federal Aviation Regulations Part 150 Noise Compatibility Plan (NCP) includes an approved noise abatement measure to construct a noise berm–wall to help reduce noise and minimize the visual impacts caused by removal of the houses. The Columbus Regional Airport Authority retained Harris, Miller, Miller, and Hanson Inc. (HMMH) to conduct a noise mitigation study to determine the final location, length, height, and composition of the berm–wall. In addition, the study sought to confirm whether the proposed measure would comply with FAA noise reduction standards, thereby making it eligible, as an approved NCP measure, for FAA funding. HMMH conducted the evaluation using the general prediction method as implemented in the SoundPLAN computer model. On previous projects, HMMH has used SoundPLAN's implementation of ISO Standard 9613-2. For this project, however, the authors found the general prediction method to provide results that were more uniform and also in closer agreement with prior measured and predicted results than those computed by ISO 9613-2. This paper provides a comparison of the relevant aspects of the two standards and suggests explanations for the differing results.},

abstract = {9 Incorporation of life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) in pavement design is a common practice in 10 China. Usually, only the user costs in normal traffic operation conditions are considered in the 11 LCCA analysis. Although the work zone user costs (WUC) during the maintenance and 12 rehabilitation construction are equally important, but often are not being considered in the 13 LCCA analysis. One of the reasons is that the information and reliable data related to WUC 14 are difficult to obtain in China. 15 In this Paper, a WUC Model based on hourly traffic demand data is presented for 16 freeways. Performing WUC analyses for urban roads is more complex due to the presence of 17 intersections and traffic lights in the work zone which would affect the vehicle travel 18 characteristics. It would be too complex to consider the queuing effects in work zone due to 19 the influence of each individual intersection. An alternate approach was proposed in this paper 20 of creating the equivalent work zone effects by combining the effects of intersections in the 21 work zone with all the other work zone effects together. Under this approach, the WUC 22 Model developed for freeways could be applied to urban roads provided the parameters 23 associated with the WUC for freeways are adjusted accordingly. Good prediction of the fuel 24 consumption for vehicle travel through work zones on an urban road was obtained. 25 A simplified WUC Model was proposed in this paper for determining the daily total 26 vehicle queuing time through the work zone without requiring having the actual work zone 27 traffic demand data, which are usually difficult to obtain in China. The simplified model is 28 easy to apply and require only three parameters, ADT, maximum hourly traffic, and work 29 zone capacity. This simplified model yielded acceptable prediction of the work zone daily 30 total vehicle queuing time when compared with that determined from the more rigorous WUC 31 model for freeways and for urban roads during the weekend in which the hourly work zone 32 traffic demand follows a parabolic function. While for the urban roads in which the hourly 33 work zone traffic demand exhibits a double-peak modality during the weekdays the prediction 34 was poor.},

abstract = {Traditional project appraisal assesses benefits from a number of sources including improvements in safety and reductions in noise levels, travel cost, and travel time. In most cases benefits are primarily based on travel time savings. Project appraisal based primarily on travel time savings sys-tematically underestimates the benefits of projects that create economic benefits beyond travel time savings and thereby introduces systematic bias against investment in an important subset of initiatives particularly in the case of projects large enough to alter the time-space geography of a metropolitan area. Recent research has developed methodologies to capture some of these previously unaccounted-for benefits of transporta-tion projects, most notably agglomeration benefits. London's {\$}25 billion Crossrail project broke new ground by incorporating agglomeration ben-efits in the project appraisal process which it estimated added 24{\%} to the project's benefits on top of conventionally appraised benefits. While methodologies now exist to measure agglomeration benefits, their inclu-sion in project appraisal is limited, partly because agglomeration and its sources are not well understood. This work seeks to explain agglomera-tion in an understandable manner through a review of previous research on the sources of transportation benefits and appraisal methodologies. This study also reviews the agglomeration calculations of a number of projects and specifically highlights projects in London, Melbourne, and Tel Aviv.},

abstract = {This paper presents a literature synthesis of the link performance functions used in their travel models with a focus on the strengths and weaknesses of the most commonly used volume delay functions (VDFs). The most commonly used functions are the Bureau of Public Roads function (BPR), the conical delay function, Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) procedures, and the Akcelik function. While the literature documents efforts to modify and/or estimate new VDFs there appears to be a continued need for a more concentrated effort on this particular component of travel models. Improvements to the VDFs used in travel models is of particular importance in light of the increased emphasis on reliable speed outputs to support air quality initiatives, improved accessibility measures for various submodels and the desire to evaluate a broader range of policy issues. One of the key challenges that analysts face in the development of locally calibrated VDFs is how best to represent the regime where the volume, or more aptly stated the demand, exceeds capacity, a regime that while required for highway assignment cannot be directly observed. This paper explores the use of freeway detector data along with bottleneck and queue analysis as a relatively easy approach for estimating demand beyond capacity for fitting locally calibrated VDFs. The results of this study show that bottleneck analysis and queue measurement is an effective means of accomplishing this goal, providing a valuable tool for improving models using locally collected data.},

Nevertheless, little attempt has been put 4 on measuring explicitly these psychological factors. Fortunately, social psychology provides an 5 appropriate theoretical framework to consider the effect of psychological and contextual aspects upon the 6 individual decision process. 7 8 The aim of this work is to study the role of psychological factors on the mode choice process. 9 Measurement of these factors was made by mean of psychometric tools, fitting them in the discrete choice 10 models through a latent variables approach, using path analysis. 11 12 The Theory of the Interpersonal Behaviour, by Triandis, was used as the theoretical framework. This 13 theory states that observed behaviour corresponds to an intention which is mediated by habit and 14 facilitating conditions, intention being depending on three factors: attitude, affect, and social aspects. 15 16 Data come from a survey designed and collected in 2007 and 2008. Respondents were lectures, 17 researchers and clerical officers from a university, which were contacted and interviewed in their working 18 place with respect to their morning trip to work.

abstract = {Although several activity-based models made the transition to practice in recent years, modelling dynamic activity generation and especially, the mechanisms underlying activity generation are not well incorporated in the current activity-based models. For example, current models assume that activities are independent, but to the extent that different activities fulfil the same underlying needs and act as partial substitutes, their interactions/dependencies should be taken into account. This paper describes the parameter estimation of a need-based activity generation model, which includes the representation of possible interaction effects between activities. A survey was carried out to collect activity data for a typical week and a specific day among an adequate sample of individuals. The diary data contain detailed information on activity history and future planning. Estimation of the model involves a range of shopping, social, leisure and sports activities, as dependent variables, and socioeconomic, day preference, and interaction variables, as explanatory variables. The results show that several person, household, and dwelling attributes influence activity-episode timing decisions in a longitudinal time frame and, thus, the frequency and day choice of conducting the social, leisure and sports activities. Furthermore, interactions where found in the sense that several activities influence the need for other activities and some activities affect the utility of conducting another activity on the same day.},

abstract = {Among the shortcomings identified in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans was the need for improved disaster planning for persons without access to personal transportation. Inadequate advanced planning for limited mobility evacuees in New Orleans prior to 2005 left a significant portion of the local population unable to flee in advance of the storm. Since 2005, state and local officials in Louisiana have developed transit assisted mass evacuation plans that now seek to accommodate carless populations. Since this plan is relatively new and does not have a history of experience on which to base its performance, it is difficult to know how well, or even if, it will work. Recently, an effort was undertaken to apply microscopic scale traffic simulation to evaluate key aspects of the New Orleans assisted evacuation plan. This study is thought to be significant because it is among the first ever to model transit bus-based evacuation processes, including the loading and unloading and the movement of individual evacuees and vehicles. Although this was a simulation-based theoretical study, the routes, timing and movements of people and busses are based on the actual plan and the results of the model have been verified, validated, and calibrated to capture the essence of the Hurricane Katrina evacuation process of 2005. This paper describes the development of this model as well as the results gained from it. In the research, two sets of transit bus routing scenarios were developed and modeled for New Orleans. Measures such as evacuation time, average travel time, average evacuation speed, and queue length were used to evaluate the performance of the transit bus movements within the general evacuation. Additional measures such as the walking and waiting times of evacuees moving to bus pick-up points were also used to assess loading processes. Among the general findings of the research was that routing busses to alternate arterial routes reduced the overall travel time by as much as 53{\%} and the total evacuation time by up to 10{\%} in some cases. It was also found that the transit evacuation had quite small impacts on the overall movement of evacuation traffic, but did increase queue lengths on some segments of the evacuation network. Finally, it was found that the planned location of bus pick-up points limited average walking time for evacuees to a half hour or less. {\&}copy; 2015, Pacini Editore S.p.A. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {Naghawi and Wolshon 1 ABSTRACT 1 Mass evacuations of urbanized areas can be expected to generate traffic demand 2 significantly in excess of what is encountered under routine daily travel conditions. Depending 3 on the nature of the hazard and the population characteristics within the threat area, the elevated 4 demand conditions may last for several hours or even days and can impact a few hundred to 5 perhaps tens of thousands of square miles of land area. Under such conditions, traffic congestion 6 can impact both the evacuation routes and the feeder roads that bring traffic to them. This paper 7 presents the result of a project to evaluate the impact of a transit-based evacuation on the 8 operation of a road network during a major evacuation. In the project, the TRANSIMS agent-9 based simulation system was used to model the citizen assisted evacuation plan (CEAP) for the 10 City of New Orleans within the context of a general evacuation. The CEAP is a regional plan 11 developed by Louisiana officials to support the evacuation of low-mobility individuals when 12 under threat of hurricanes. Because it has yet to be fully implemented, the expected benefits of 13 this plan, its effect on the overall region-wide evacuation, and the adequacy of the planned bus 14 service has yet to be completely evaluated. This study seeks to address the need for this 15 knowledge by using the average evacuation travel speed, queue length, and travel delay to assess 16 the evacuation operation under a range of conditions. The simulation results showed that while 17 the busses were able to increase the total number of people evacuated from the threat area, the 18 additional vehicles it required had a minimal impact on the arterial evacuation routes. However, 19 significant queuing and delay was evident for the busses on certain segments of freeway 20 evacuation routes. 21 22},

Transportation agencies must select one of these two flash modes for intersection malfunction flash events. This paper summarizes current malfunction flash policies and practice. The paper includes a review of state DOT policies and guidance related to malfunction flash, and the results of a survey of state and local agency officials responsible for traffic signals. It was found that no general guidance existed to inform uniformity in flash mode selection with the choice between yellow/red and red/red flash made on an agency-by-agency basis. Among the signal agencies surveyed widespread differences were identified in the causes of malfunction flash, flash mode selection polices, notification methods, and maintenance procedures. This effort highlights the need for the development of consistent flash mode policies at the national and state levels.},

abstract = {Using stochastic frontier modeling, we examine the regional carrying capacity for office firm sectors, in the so-called COROP areas of The Netherlands. We express the concept of carrying capacity using the number of jobs in various economic sectors. Results indicate that regions can be characterized by economic sectors that have a minimum amount of jobs necessary to serve their local needs and, in most of the cases, they can serve external markets due to a surplus in the number of jobs. On the other hand, regions can also be characterized by economic sectors that support a maximum amount of jobs based on their regional specific factors. As many regions are below this frontier, it allows them to absorb external demands. Therefore, it may be that carrying capacity is not an applicable concept for all sectors and that sometimes a minimum size might be a better description. In sum, the findings delineated here can compose a base framework to simulate office firm demographic processes in line with integrated land use-transportation (LUTI) models and agent-based modeling approaches.},

abstract = {1 It has been recently shown that a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) linking space-mean 2 flow, density and speed exists in the urban transportation networks under some conditions. An 3 MFD is further well defined if the network is homogeneous with links of similar properties. How-4 ever many real urban transportation networks are heterogeneous with different levels of conges-5 tion. The objective of this paper is to study the existence of MFD and the feasibility of simple 6 control strategies to alleviate the congestion in the heterogeneous networks, which can be parti-7 tioned into homogeneous components. To achieve these goals, this paper focuses on the clustering 8 of transportation networks based on the spatial and temporal features of congestion. A partitioning 9 mechanism, which consists of three consecutive algorithms, is designed to minimize the variance 10 of link densities while maintaining the spatial compactness of the clusters. Small variance of link 11 densities within a cluster increases the aggregated flow for the same average density and spatial 12 compactness makes feasible the application of perimeter control strategies. Firstly, Normalized 13 Cut is applied to over segment the network into several clusters and a new metric is introduced to 14 evaluate the partitioning results. Secondly, a merging algorithm is developed to improve the metric 15 and total variance of link densities, and the optimal number of clusters is estimated and determined. 16 Finally, a boundary adjustment algorithm is designed to further improve the metric and decrease 17 the variances of the clusters while keeping the compactness of the shapes. Both the objectives of 18 smaller variances and spatial compactness can be achieved after this partitioning mechanism. The 19 simulation further demonstrates the superiority of our method in both effectiveness and robustness 20 compared with other clustering algorithms.},

Contested information has two characteristics: uncertainty and ambiguity. The uncertainty of information refers to the lack of reliable knowledge about the characteristics and future effects of infrastructure projects. The ambiguity of information means that different actors have different (legitimate and valid) perspectives on the characteristics and effects of infrastructure projects. Information is contested if both uncertainty and ambiguity apply. In this paper, we develop a theoretical framework based on different perspectives on rationality and the role ascribed to information in decision-making. We then use this framework to analyse three approaches aiming to deal with the contested nature of information. The analysis shows that none of the approaches can fully deal with the contested nature of information, because no practically feasible approach has yet been developed to effectively address the ambiguity of information. We end with a brief discussion of the possible responses to this finding. 1.},

This paper describes research 6 into best practice parking management processes in Australia. 7 The research is based on knowledge from several local government studies conducted in Australia 8 and New Zealand over the past few years. Previous research does not directly focus on parking 9 management processes or how (and when) local politics should be removed from the process. 10 The parking management processes developed are based on those found most commonly applied 11 across various local governments. These various processes have been structured in a logical way and 12 documented using a range of graphics to engage the general public in the preparation of parking reviews. 13 Graphical techniques including GIS are adopted for clear and simple presentation of technical outputs. 14 Documenting the process has generated powerful 'buy-in' amongst local communities and 15 resulted in greater understanding of the function and impact of parking for different user groups.

Data from these systems are used for realtime system monitoring and control, and archived data are often used for service performance reporting and for service planning. This paper proposes and demonstrates a method by which these archived data can be used to estimate the mean and variance of transit vehicle delays caused by signalized intersections. The proposed method is suitable for application to most transit AVL-APC databases and is demonstrated with data from Grand River Transit, the public transit service provider in the region of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The results obtained from the application to field data indicated that the proposed method was able to explain 96{\%} of the variation in observed mean transit vehicle delay at signalized intersections. These results suggest that the proposed method has practical application for the identification and prioritization of candidate measures for transit priority, including transit signal priority (green extension, early green, special transit phases) and queue jump lanes.},

An occurrence of incidents$\backslash$nin the network is likely to cause delays to the train service and$\backslash$ndisorder in the punctuality and regularity of the metro operation and$\backslash$nhence affects the service reliability of the metro system. This result$\backslash$nsuggests a way to improve train service reliability by reducing the$\backslash$noccurrence of incidents in urban metro systems. This paper used$\backslash$nstatistical techniques to identify the main factors that explained the$\backslash$nvariation in the number of delay incidents across 42 metro lines of 15$\backslash$ndifferent metro systems from 2005 to 2009. The main factors that$\backslash$nexplained differences in incident performance across urban metro lines$\backslash$nwere the technology of the mode of train operation, the level of$\backslash$npassenger demand, the service level operated during peak periods, and$\backslash$nthe practical capacity available. In contrast, engineering and usually$\backslash$nfixed factors such as the type of track support, the type of rail$\backslash$nconnection, and the type of rolling stock wheel did not affect the level$\backslash$nof incidents. The findings also suggested that metro-specific factors$\backslash$n(e.g., differences in maintenance and management practices, operations$\backslash$nmanagement, and health and safety procedures) helped to explain the$\backslash$nvariation in incident performance across urban metros.},

abstract = {The commute mode choice decision is one of the most fundamental aspects of daily travel. Although initial research in this area was limited to explaining mode choice behavior as a function of traveler socioeconomics, travel times, and costs, subsequent studies have included the effect of traveler attitudes and perceptions. This paper extends the existing body of literature by examining public transit choice in the Chicago area. Data from a recent Attitudinal Survey conducted by the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) in Northeastern Illinois were used to pursue three major steps. First, a factor analysis methodology was used to condense scores on 23 statements related to daily travel into six factors. Second, the factor scores on these six dimensions were used in conjunction with traveler socioeconomics, travel times, and costs to estimate a binary logistic regression of public transit choice. Third, elasticities of transit choice to the six factors were computed, and the factors were ranked in decreasing order of these elasticities. The analysis provided two major findings. First, from a statistical standpoint, the attitudinal factors improved the intuitiveness and goodness-of-fit of the model. Second, from a policy standpoint, the analysis indicated the importance of word-of-mouth publicity in attracting new riders, as well as the need for a marketing message that emphasizes the lower stress level and better commute time productivity due to transit use. {\textcopyright} 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.},

abstract = {Parking requirements are a hotly debated element of parking policy. Yet such requirements are common worldwide. Little effort had been made, however, to make international comparisons that could place local policies into wider perspective. This study focused on parking requirement policies in 14 cities in South Asia, East Asia, and Southeast Asia. Cities in these regions have tended to be high in urban density, rel- atively low in car ownership, and, in some cases, strongly transit-oriented in their urban transport systems. In the West, localities with these char- acteristics often reject the suburban-style parking policy that requires minimum parking, and adopt alternatives. Nevertheless, all Asian cities in the study did enforce such parking requirements on building devel- opments. This surprising enforcement result raised questions. Are these Asian parking requirement policies really similar to those in the West? Are criticisms of Western policies relevant in Asia? Are there lessons to be drawn from parking requirement practices in this region? Such questions were addressed through comparisons of parking requirement policies in the 14 Asian cities (and with reference to Western practice, especially in North America and Australia). The study drew on infor- mation collected for a wider study of parking policy in Asia commis- sioned by the Asian Development Bank. The results revealed diversity, including some distinctive approaches. The findings should provide insights that are useful in debates on parking policy reform, inside and outside the region.},

abstract = {1 2 The aim of this paper is to examine the viability of the implementation of a new alternative 3 intermediate transport mode in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area. 4 This new innovative system intends to combine the major strengths of both public transport 5 and private vehicles. Conventional public transport system can present efficient space and 6 energy consumption, while private vehicles have high levels of flexibility, are fast and 7 always available. 8 This service will be mainly based on lower capacity buses which have the advantage of being 9 more maneuverable, more economic and flexible and are good on providing demand 10 responsive solutions. 11 For that purpose, this paper presents a comprehensive methodology which encompasses: the 12 potential demand estimation based on current transport demand data through the introduction 13 of spatial-temporal constraint of the different service potential customers; the possible 14 location of the service " s stops; and a detailed characterization of the service operation, 15 including routes and schedules. The global objective of the model is to design a self-16 sustainable system that maximizes the operator " s profit and not to satisfy all the potential 17 demand. The developed model was tested for the study area using demand parameters, based 18 on the available data, and supply parameters, using data provided by bus " operators in the 19 region. Yet, the estimated values should be refined prior to the service deployment. 20 This assessment was performed, as an initial test-bed, for the municipality of Lisbon, and 21 will in the future be expanded to all the metropolitan area. 22 The obtained results suggest that this service might be significantly profitable to the operator 23 and a good alternative option for private car single drivers. The implementation of this 24 system may lead to some congestion relief during peak hours.},

This paper discussed the desired following distances of Chinese experienced and novice drivers. The study procedures were as follows: 10 experienced drivers and 10 novice drivers were employed as the subjects and their car following behaviors were collected on urban roads by an experimental vehicle; then the influence of speed of the following vehicle (abbreviate as FV) and the speed difference between the FV and the leading vehicle (abbreviate as LV) on desired following distances under steady-state car-following were analyzed; at last, new desired following distances models were established based on the two influence factors. The study discovered that, generally, under steady-state car-following, experienced drivers have little longer desired following distances than the novice drivers at different speed. When the speeds of vehicle pairs were close, the desired following distances were small, but they increased rapidly as the speed differences increased. Drivers responded asymmetrically to positive and negative speed differences. When a FV was approaching a LV, longer following distances were desired by the following drivers. The new desired following distance models that considered two influence factors a) speed of the FV and b) speed difference can significantly improve the accuracy.},

However, established evaluation procedures commonly assess the traffic quality instead of the transport quality, i.e. they focus on vehicles instead of goods and travellers. Furthermore, the existing methodologies evaluate the quality of each transport mode separately and often neglect the role of bicycles and pedestrians. Recently, several methods have been proposed to consider transport networks from a multimodal perspective, which is an important step towards the transport quality evaluation in the context of sustainability. A transparent and objective evaluation methodology is needed which comprehensively considers all transport modes. The procedure introduced in this article is limited to the assessment of signalized intersections, but goes one step beyond the existing methods: the multimodal assessment considers the number of travellers of the different modes. A route importance factor is introduced to reflect the differing significance of the transport modes. A case study underlines the strengths of the procedure.},

abstract = {Provision of bicycle facilities at intersections is often inadequate and can lead to unsafe interactions between motorists and bicyclists. The bicycle box is a tool intended to improve the predictability of bicyclist stopping position at an intersection by allowing bicyclists utilizing a bicycle lane to position themselves in front of motorists during a red phase. The bicycle box in this application is meant to reduce the possibility of a right-hook collision, where a right-turning motorist collides with a through-moving bicyclist departing the intersection. The primary goal of this study was to determine what effect, if any, bicycle boxes have on bicyclist and motorist behavior. In 2009, 950 bicyclists were observed at two sites in three phases: existing conditions, after bicycle box markings were installed, and after a green colored pavement marking was added to the bicycle box and approaching bicycle lane. The predictability of bicyclists' behavior improved based on the increased percentage of bicyclists who used the bicycle lane to approach the intersection, departed the intersection before motorists, and stopped in front of the motor vehicle queue. While only 20–26{\%} of bicyclists stopped in the bicycle box area after installation of the bicycle box markings, over 90{\%} of bicyclists stopped in front of motorists and were therefore more visible to motorists. The addition of the green pavement markings led to significant improvements in bicyclist behavior, but at a considerably higher material cost. Motorist encroachment on the bicycle box was common at both sites as well as illegal right turns on red at one site. No bicycle-motorist collisions were observed during any stage of the study.},

abstract = {Recent changes in global markets have raised the value of mineral resources in northwestern Canada and Alaska. The development of these resources depends on the economics of rail infrastructure expansion. Transportation decision makers need revenue and cost assessments to plan investment in rail infrastructure. A tool based on a geographic information system was developed for mineral resource evaluation and visualization. The tool incorporated expert-augmented mineral resource data for more than 22,000 occurrences in the region. The tool included the proposed Alaska-Canada Rail Link, which would connect Alaska rail to the lower 48 states. Users selected locations of known mineral occurrences near actual or proposed rail routes and used statistical mineral deposit models to estimate resource sizes and extractable value over time by combining current or user-entered commodity prices with multimodal revenue freight volumes and optimally routed transportation costs. The tool translated the revenue scenario into likely carbon dioxide emissions according to the transport of mineral concentrates to regional and international destinations. Users could select and visualize multimodal transportation networks to understand and minimize mobilesource carbon emissions as part of their scenarios. Statistical estimates of mine capital expenditure and operating costs were also calculated according to type. The tool calculated the gross metal value of a mineral occurrence with statistical deposit models. This index was linked to the positive regional economic impact associated with the developed resource in terms of jobs, taxes and royalties, and resupply. This information helped decision makers close the loop on infrastructure investment assessments.},

abstract = {Various control algorithms process vehicle detector on/off times with the objective of quantifying split performance. Two such metrics are: Green Occupancy Ratio (GOR) and Volume to Capacity (v/c) ratio, both of which can be used to estimate the efficiency of a split as well as estimate oversaturated conditions. The GOR metric is attractive because of its simplicity of implementation, whereas the v/c ratio is based upon well established traffic flow concepts and is independent of detector geometry, though it requires additional processing to develop the metric. Characterizing the impact of detection zone length and vehicle speed on the GOR as well as comparing its performance with another metric is important to understanding the robustness of GOR as a surrogate performance metric. This paper analyzes the difference between calculated GOR and V/C ratios over different detection zone lengths and differing vehicle speeds, compares these values to a calculated delay metric, and observes the effectiveness of GOR as an indicator of oversaturation. Based upon the analysis, the paper documents the influence of approach speed and detection zone length on the calculated GOR metric. The paper concludes that the GOR values tend to reach a saturated value of 1.0 more rapidly than v/c, making it challenging for the analyst to identify oversaturated conditions by the metric alone. For practitioners using the GOR metric, it is critical that the system be calibrated properly due to the sensitivity of GOR to the detection zone length and vehicle speed. However, since direct measurement of v/c is difficult to obtain, GOR may still be a reasonable surrogate in real-time performance assessment of traffic signal systems.},

This paper proposes a generalized market-based economic modeling framework to capture the interdependencies among various infrastructure systems with disparate physical and operational characteristics. The framework uses a multilayer infrastructure network (MIN) concept and the spatial computable general equilibrium (SCGE) theory to formulate an equilibrium problem. The mapping between the modeling framework and the real-world context is discussed, followed by a description of the various model components. Numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the capability of the model to capture various types of interdependencies and to provide insights on the importance of these interdependencies for real-world problems.},

If bicycle planners could better understand the factors behind bicyclists' cross-sectional choices (i.e., what makes bicyclists switch between on- and off-street cross-sections), they would have a better basis for identifying the next additions to the local bicycle network..  Using binary logit models, we have identified how changes in cross-sectional characteristics (e.g., bike lane availability), route characteristics (e.g., lane width, sidewalk width, pavement condition), and weather conditions (e.g., wind speed and direction) influence bicyclist behavior.  In particular, we have sought to determine the relative significance of having a bicycle facility (i.e., bicycle lane or path) available to users and to identify those segments where bicyclists tend to travel on off-street components, assuming the general preference of planners being that bicyclists stay off the sidewalk.  Based on the relative strength of the parameters and corresponding t-statistics in the models, planners can anticipate the response of bicyclists to changes in bicycle facilities.},

abstract = {The probability distribution of duration is critical input for predicting the potential impact of incidents. After analyzing the limitation of na ive Bayesian (NB) classifier and unrestricted Bayesian networks (UBN) classifier, tree augmented naive Bayesian (TAN) classifier is chosen to develop a new discrete model for duration prediction. The discrete models divide duration into several intervals, but some time the continuous probability distribution is needed. Therefore we also develop a continuous model based on latent Gaussian naive Bayesian (LGNB) classifier, assuming duration fit a lognormal distribution. Both these two models can accommodate incomplete information. These models are calibrated and tested by incident records from the Georgia Department of Transportation. The results show that TAN classifier performs favorably compared to UBN classifier and NB classifier, and LGNB can describe the continuous probability distribution of duration well. According to the evidence sensitivity analysis of LGNB, the four classes of incidents classified by LGNB can be interpreted by the level of severity and complexity. TAN classifier as an extent of NB classifier is still simple but works better, and can replace NB classifier. LGNB classifier combines the Bayesian classifier theory and the continuous probability distribution of duration, can provide more useful information about incident duration and get more application.},

abstract = {This paper explores how Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHEVs) may reduce source-to-wheel Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions from passenger vehicles. The two primary advances are the incorporation of (1) explicit measures of consumer interest in and potential use of different types of PHEVs and (2) a model of the California electricity grid capable of differentiating hourly and seasonal GHG emissions by generation source. We construct PHEV emissions scenarios to address inherent relationships between vehicle design, driving and recharging behaviors, seasonal and time-of-day variation in GHG-intensity of electricity, and total GHG emissions. A sample of 877 California new vehicle buyers provide data on driving, time of day recharge access, and PHEV design interests. The elicited data differ substantially from the assumptions used in previous analyses. We construct electricity demand profiles scaled to one million PHEVs and input them into an hourly California electricity supply model to simulate GHG emissions. Compared to conventional vehicles, consumer-designed PHEVs cut marginal (incremental) GHG emissions by more than one-third in current California energy scenarios and by one-quarter in future energy scenarios-reductions similar to those simulated for all-electric PHEV designs. Across the emissions scenarios, long-term GHG reductions depends on reducing the carbon intensity of the grid. ?? 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

The first step is to develop an optimization model, which minimizes the overall travel time of each passenger and obtains the optimal bus stop spacing. The model is processed via the sequential unconstrained minimization technique; The second step is to develop a modification model, which takes into account the road grade, interaction with other modes of transportation, the state of traffic flow, the delay time at intersections, the interference delay time when a bus goes into or out of a stop, the dwell time at stops, the driver′s reaction time after passengers′ boarding and alighting, the average travel distance of passengers, the average speed-to-stop of passengers, the density of passengers and other factors and obtains the practical bus stop spacing. Finally, the two-step model is applied to a real case of Liaoyuan city in Jilin Province, China. The operating results suggest that the model should deal with the stop location problem well.},

Given 2 a set of port-to-port container shipment demands with hard time window constraints, a liner 3 shipping company aims to design itineraries of portcalls, deploy ships on these itineraries and 4 determine how to transport containers with the deployed ships in order to maximize its total profit. 5 In this paper we first prove that this problem is NP-hard and subsequently propose a column 6 generation based solution approach. This approach consists of two stages: In the first stage, a set 7 of good candidate service routes (itineraries with deployed ships) is designed by column 8 generation. Each service route is designed together with its container delivery pattern (volume of 9 containers delivered for each demand). In the second stage, we detach each service route from its 10 container delivery pattern and choose the optimal set of service routes to operate whilst 11 redesigning their container delivery patterns. Extensive numerical examples for container 12 shipping on the Asia-Europe trade lane demonstrate that the proposed solution algorithm is 13 efficient to find good solutions. 14 15},

When the itineraries of its liner service routes are determined, the liner shipping company designs the schedules of the liner routes such that the wait time at transshipment ports is minimized. As a result of transshipment, multiple paths are available for delivering containers from the origin port to the destina- tion port. Therefore, the medium-term (3 to 6 months) schedule design problem and the operational-level container-routing problem must be investigated simultaneously. The schedule design and container-routing problems were formulated by minimization of the sum of the total transshipment cost and penalty cost associated with longer transit time than the market-level transit time, minus the bonus for shorter tran- sit time. The formulation is nonlinear, noncontinuous, and nonconvex. A genetic local search approach was developed to find good solutions to the problem. The proposed solution method was applied to optimize the Asia–Europe–Oceania liner shipping services of a global liner company.},

ABSTRACT 47 48 This paper presents an investigation to evaluate the principles underlying the concept of 49 International Friction Index (IFI), and revise the current ASTM methodology for 50 calibration of the IFI model parameters. The current ASTM standard for computing the 51 IFI assumes a linear correlation among speed-corrected measurements of all friction 52 measuring devices that operate at different slip ratios to those of the standard device 53 (Dynamic Friction Tester) that operates at 100{\%} slip. 54 55 This investigation revealed that there is a linear correlation between measurements 56 converted to the standard slip speed of 60 km/hr (FR60s) obtained from devices that 57 operate at 100{\%} slip conditions and those of DFT. On the other hand, the relationships 58 between FR60 values obtained from friction measuring devices that operate in the slip 59 range of 10-20{\%} and those of the DFT were observed to be nonlinear. However, it was 60 also found that the FR60 values obtained using the latter category of friction measuring 61 devices when transformed by a power transformation would produce a linear relationship 62 with the standard F60 values obtained using the DFT. 63 64 Based on the above results a revised methodology for computing the IFI is proposed. 65 This revised methodology yielded higher predictive capability than the current ASTM 66 procedure and calibration parameters A and B that were speed invariant. The revised 67 methodology would also capture the actual friction-speed relationship of any given 68 friction measuring device on a given pavement surface by incorporating not only surface 69 characteristics, but also the device specific characteristics on the definition of the Speed 70 Constant (S p). 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

However, the relationship between collisions and conflicts must first be bridged to 5 use traffic conflicts as surrogates to collisions for safety analysis. This paper proposes the 6 development of Safety Performance Functions (SPFs) using traffic conflicts as a potential 7 predictor while correcting for measurement errors (ME). The objectives are to (i) 8 establish the relationship between collisions and conflicts, and (ii) compare the predictive 9 safety performance capabilities of volume-based SPFs with conflict-based SPFs using a 10 data set from British Columbia. The proposed conflicts-based model was applied to a 11 dataset corresponding to 51 signalized intersections in British Columbia. The model was 12 employed to predict the number of accidents at signalized intersections using conflicts' 13 counts and area type (urban/suburban) as covariates. A significant relationship was found 14 between collisions and conflicts upon adjusting for measurement errors. Compared with 15 the volume-based NB model, the proposed model fitted the accidents data equally well. 16 The comparison demonstrated that conflict-based SPFs have capabilities to predict safety 17 performance on equal terms with what can be obtained through traffic volume-based 18 exposure measures. The significance of this research stems from the establishing a 19 relationship between collisions and conflicts, which calls for further research on the 20 countermeasures needed to reduce conflicts as effective means for decreasing the number 21 of collisions. Apart from the traffic-and geometric-based traditional countermeasures, 22 new driving-behavior-based measures can be devised that would hopefully have a 23 downward influence on collisions.},

This can be attained by having a better 4 insight into people's reasoning in choosing a transport mode and shopping location for this 5 type of activities. Thus, this paper highlights individuals' leisure-trip decision-making 6 processes. The uniqueness of this study is the use of a large sample group, consisting of 221 7 respondents. A Computer-Based Causal Network Elicitation Technique is developed for this 8 purpose, and participants' responses are analyzed by means of Frequent Itemset Analysis. It 9 appears that the complexity of the mental representation of the decision problem is very 10 stable over different socio-demographic groups. However, clear differences appear between 11 these groups concerning the content of the mental representation. The most remarkable 12 findings are the limited importance of cost and environmental aspects in the transport mode 13 choice. This has important implications for policy and marketing efforts to encourage 14 sustainable transport modes for leisure-shopping. It is recommended to focus advertising 15 campaigns and policy measures on aspects that are most important in people's decision-16 making process: flexibility, travel time, accessibility, easiness for parking and some practical 17 concerns.},

Methods: Mississippi traffic crash data from April 2004-December 2008 from the Mississippi Highway Patrol and regular-grade unleaded gasoline price data from the Energy Information Administration of the U.S. Department of Energy were used to investigate the effects of gasoline prices on traffic safety by age, gender, and race. Results: Gasoline prices have both short-term and intermediate-term effects on reducing total traffic crashes and crashes of females, whites, and blacks. The intermediate-term effects are generally stronger than the short-term effects. Gasoline prices also have short-term effects on reducing crashes of younger drivers and intermediate-term effects on older drivers and male drivers. Impact on Industry: Higher gasoline taxes reduce traffic crashes and may result in additional societal benefits. {\textcopyright} 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

It examines the specific impact of surface parking lots at supermarkets. Past studies have demonstrated that design elements of a neighborhood (density, mix of uses, street connectivity, sidewalk condition, tree cover, etc.) have correlations with travel behavior (vehicle miles traveled, walking trip rates, transit ridership, etc.). In the present case, those elements are controlled by selecting supermarkets in six Philadelphia neighborhoods all characterized by urban design features associated with high rates of walking. Travel behavior of residents within a one-half mile catchment shed of each supermarket is examined. Using a quasi-experimental methodology, two design typologies for supermarkets are analyzed. Three of the supermarkets are auto-oriented, with large setbacks from the street and large surface parking lots, while the other three are pedestrian-oriented. They are not set-back from the street, their entrances open to a sidewalk rather than a surface lot, and their available parking is structured or priced, even though parking is still free with grocery purchases. Using a discrete choice framework, binary logit models were developed demonstrating that surface parking lots encourage automobile access over pedestrian access. Moreover, while surface parking lots were shown to influence mode choice, they were not shown to increase use of a supermarket among nearby residents.},

abstract = {Scholars have debated whether experts' perception of risk differs systematically from that of the public, and if so whether expert opinion is more accurate. This paper examines whether experts and non-experts make different residential location decisions in response to ground-level ozone pollution, one of the byproducts of automobile transportation. Physicians are experts in the field of health, and thus may differ from their lay neighbors in their knowledge of and attitude toward pollution and its health risks. If so, it is possible that physicians value locations with cleaner air differently than their neighbors. This paper uses hedonic price models based on willingness to bear housing and commute burdens to examine the differential valuation of clean air by doctors and laypeople in the Los Angeles region between 1980 and 2000. It finds no evidence that doctors are more or less more willing than comparable lay residents to trade off time (analyzed using transportation data) or money in order to live in cleaner-air neighborhoods. The paper outlines several possible explanations for this result, and finds that the most likely is that the health risks of ozone pollution are perceived to be small enough by both experts and the lay population that ozone avoidance is largely drown out by the many other factors that go into housing decisions.},

abstract = {A separate turn phase is often used on the approach leg to an intersections with heavy left turns. This wastes capacity on the approach because some of its lanes cannot discharge during its green phases. The paper shows that the problem can be eliminated by reorganizing traffic on all the lanes upstream of an intersection using a mid-block pre-signal. If drivers behave deterministically, the capacity that can be achieved is the same as if there were no left turns. However, if the reorganization is too drastic, it may be counterintuitive to drivers. This can be remedied by reorganizing traffic on just some of the available lanes. It is shown that such partial reorganization still increases capacity significantly, even if drivers behave randomly and only one lane is reorganized. The paper shows how to optimize the design of a pre-signal system for a generic intersection. It also identifies both, the potential benefits of the proposed system for a broad class of intersections, and the domain of application where the benefits are most significant. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {In transport vehicles, the forces that lead to passenger discomfort and injury are a result of the accelerations of the vehicle itself. The purpose of this study was to quantify the accelerations experienced by passengers seated in the small to mid-size transit vehicles that are most commonly used by paratransit or shuttle operators. Three different sized vehicles were studied. Each vehicle was instrumented with two tri-axial accelerometers to determine the accelerations in the front and in the wheelchair securement area of the vehicle as it moved through normal driving conditions. The test procedure was based on one that had been previously developed and validated by the research team for large vehicles. Recognizing an important difference between large and smaller vehicles, the analysis was expanded to include an added focus on vertical accelerations as a function of seating location. A standard route was selected and vehicle accelerations were recorded at 100Hz (for each axis). The data was time averaged to 20Hz for analysis. The final results indicate overall vehicle accelerations of less than 0.3g in both the x and y directions (fore-and-aft and side-to-side). However, in the z-direction (up-and-down) accelerations of up to 0.97g were recorded and a significant difference was identified in accelerations between the front and rear of the vehicles. The results of this project provide a quantitative insight to the vehicle motion that will cause passenger discomfort and movement during normal driving conditions. These results will have important implications for local and state public transportation agencies and the motor coach industry as new accessible vehicles are being designed, purchased, and operated in paratransit and shuttle operations.},

abstract = {Seven national freight origin-destination samples collected in Colombia from 1999 to 2005 were used to conduct an empirical investigation of the temporal stability of parameters of freight demand models in the short to medium term. Freight generation, freight distribution, and empty trip models were considered. To identify time-dependent effects, models were estimated with a panel formulation with time-dependent parameters and fixed time effects and then compared with the corresponding cross-sectional models. The results indicate the presence of statistically significant time-dependent effects on all freight generation models (production and attraction), freight distribution models (based on both loaded vehicle trips and commodity flows), and empty trip models. A literature review indicates that few studies are available on the temporal stability of parameters. The results show a remarkably consistent pattern in that the components of freight demand that could change faster (i.e., freight production and attraction) are those that exhibit the largest rates of parameter change. The rates of change for these models are 18.29{\%} and 26.37{\%}, respectively. In contrast, the freight distribution models of loaded trips were found to change less rapidly (10.50{\%} and 1.94{\%}, respectively, depending on the impedance function), while the tonnage distribution model exhibited only fixed time effects. The model that changes least rapidly is the empty trip model, which has a rate of change of 0.83{\%}.},

In recent years, efforts have been made to apply inclusive and universal design principles to increase access and mobility for all users including those with sensory and cognitive impairments. There have been and will be advances in the deployment of information and communication technologies (ICT) that will facilitate travel by people with sensory and cognitively impairments as a result of the revolution in micro-electronics. It is important to consider the full spectrum of human sensory and cognitive performance when designing, and deploying assistive technologies. Travel can often be very stressful and exacerbates cognitive stress and mental illness. It is very important that ICT system designers consider the requirements of vulnerable travelers during an emergency event to insure that appropriate real time information reaches the end use in an accessible format. An often overlooked benefit of full inclusion is the need for open system architecture of the communication infrastructure and system designs that permits interoperability across operating systems and platforms. In the future more and more personal communication devices that are designed for the specific needs of the end user will be available. These devices will let people receive information that is appropriate to their specific needs and in formats that are appropriate for their degree of information processing. The underlying infrastructure needs to be adapted to ensure that accessible information is delivered to the end user. ]},

abstract = {Drivers on high-volume arterials with signalized intersections often face congestion during peak hours. This congestion, primarily through movement, decreases the traffic performance of the intersection. The primary delay at conventional intersections is caused by interactions between high left-turn movements and the opposing through maneuvers. Unconventional intersection designs have been proposed to decrease intersection delay and travel time, for example, by redirecting left turns from the minor approach away from the main intersection and replacing them with a right turn followed by U-turn. The U-turn intersection investigated in this study is geometrically designed with a raised island, which provides a protected U-turn movement. Several scenarios with different distances between the U-turn facility and the intersection, traffic volume on major and minor approaches, and percentage of left-turn volumes were simulated by using AIMSUN (Advanced Interactive Microscopic Simulator for Urban and Non-Urban Networks) software. Models were created to predict travel time for each movement at the intersection and were validated against data collected from a number of U-turn facilities. With these models, it was possible to calculate travel time of each movement within boundaries of geometric features and traffic conditions indicated in this study. Finally, by comparison of the travel time of a conventional signalized intersection with that of a U-turn facility, an objective criterion was obtained for use in deciding on the possible conversion of a signalized intersection into this new kind of U-turn facility. According to the results of this comparison, this type of U-turn facility generally produces lower travel time. Thus, evaluation of using this type of unconventional intersection should be seriously considered.},

These models appear to be simple and easy to implement, however they 3 suffer from two major drawbacks, namely: (a) the use of vehicle specific power results in a bang-4 bang control (i.e. the optimum fuel consumption results from a full throttle acceleration) if higher 5 orders of power are not considered in the model; and (b) the calibration of the model parameters 6 cannot be done using publicly available data and thus requires field data collection for each 7 vehicle. Consequently, the research presented in this paper develops two simple fuel 8 consumption models that do not result in a bang-bang control system and that can be calibrated 9 easily using publicly available data. Specifically, the models can be calibrated using the 10 Environmental Protection Agency city and highway fuel economy ratings that are publicly 11 available. The models are demonstrated to estimate vehicle fuel consumption rates consistent 12 with in-field measurements (coefficient of determination above 0.90). Finally, a procedure for 13 estimating CO 2 emissions is developed producing emission estimates that are highly correlated 14 with field measurements (greater than 0.98). The development of this model attempts to bridge 15 the existing gap between traditional power-based fuel consumption models and vehicle 16 operational control systems such as fuel-optimized cruise control systems, real-time eco-driving 17 systems, and adaptive cruise control systems on passenger cars using road topography 18 information. 19 20 21},

abstract = {Roadway grades have a significant impact on vehicle fuel consumption and CO2 emission rates. On upgrade sections, vehicles exert additional power to overcome the grade resistance force, thus consuming more fuel compared to driving on a flat surface. A cruise control system allows the driver to maintain a desired speed by adjusting the vehicle throttle and brake level. However, traditional cruise control systems can result in excessive fuel usage by attempting to maintain a desired speed on upgrade and downgrade roadway segments. The research develops an eco-cruise control system that can save fuel and CO2 emissions using road topography information. The eco-cruise control system allows the vehicle to travel faster along downgrades and slower along upgrades (within a desired speed window). Simulation tests on a section of Interstate 81 show that, on average, the eco-cruise control system can save 10.33 percent in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions for different vehicle types (i.e., light-duty trucks and passenger cars). Also, for the specific example illustration on VA Route 7, the eco-cruise control system improves the vehicle fuel economy by 34 percent compared to traditional cruise control methods. Since the road grade effect certainly plays a significant role in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, it is expected that the implementation of the eco-cruise control system can help achieve better fuel economy and improve air quality.},

abstract = {1 As the interest in establishing new streetcar systems in various cities throughout the 2 country continues, concerns regarding possible visual impact of the overhead wiring are 3 sometimes expressed. These concerns are not without basis. 4 In some cases they have as a genesis the trend to utilize catenary, rather than traditional 5 trolley wire on light rail transit (LRT) lines. Catenary is unavoidably conspicuous. In addition 6 to the contact wire, it comprises a thick messenger cable with multiple vertical hangers to 7 support the contact wire and other appurtenances, all out over the middle of the street. The use 8 of catenary in a street setting is a departure from traditional streetcar track electrification, which 9 generally has only a single wire over the track. 10 These visual impact concerns can be particularly acute at specific locations such as where 11 a line segment is bordered by a grand or historic edifice or is in a park setting. This is the case at 12 particular locations in Washington and San Diego where there is a desire to avoid even 13 unobtrusive wiring. 14 The time is propitious for a re-visitation of overhead wire design concepts as an element 15 in addressing visual impact concerns. This paper discusses the engineering designs that are 16 available to satisfy these two needs, which are: (1) electrification of the primary trackage of a 17 network with minimal visual impact and (2) feasible on-board power storage to allow operation 18 on non-electrified track segments in zones where a total absence of overhead wire is considered 19 essential. 20 21 22 Abstract: 247 words (limit 250) 23 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.

This year, with its 5,000 bikes and increasing number of members, the system cannot solely rely on good intuition to increase its performance. This paper provides insight into the quantitative life of a fast-growing system. It proposes a set of indicators aiming to objectively describe the state of the main objects of the system in space and time: bikes, stations, members, anchor points and trips. It relies on data gathered during three months of operation during the summer of 2009 (July, August and September). First analyses show that regular members and occasional users have different behaviors, the former accounting for 67.8{\%} of the studied trips. Results also show that bikesharers do between 1.7 and 2.1 trips per day. On typical weekdays, 72.6{\%} of the trips are due to members while this proportion decreases during week-ends. Results show that stations face various states that require balancing transfers and that these seem to be related to spatial location. Systematic and continuous assessment of object-related indicators will help better understand supply and demand and propose efficient operational and planning strategies.},

Several techniques have been developed for acquiring 3-D point coordinates of infrastructure, such as laser scanning. Although the method yields accurate results, the high device costs and human effort required render the process infeasible for generic applications in the construction industry. A quick and reliable approach, which is based on the principles of stereo vision, is proposed for generating a depth map of an infrastructure. Initially, two images are captured by two similar stereo cameras at the scene of the infrastructure. A Harris feature detector is used to extract feature points from the first view, and an innovative adaptive window-matching technique is used to compute feature point correspondences in the second view. A robust algorithm computes the nonfeature point correspondences. Thus, the correspondences of all the points in the scene are obtained. After all correspondences have been obtained, the geometric principles of stereo vision are used to generate a dense depth map of the scene. The proposed algorithm has been tested on several data sets, and results illustrate its potential for stereo correspondence and depth map generation.},

In Montreal, carsharing in now part of the transportation strategies to alleviate congestion and contribute to the overall aim of reducing the dependency towards the individual car. Thanks to a continuous partnership with Communauto, the Quebec carsharing operator, it has been possible, in the recent years, to provide quantitative assessment of various aspects of the system, both regarding supply and demand. This paper builds on these previous researches and concentrates on the systematic analysis of the behaviors of members, in terms of transactions and kilometers travelled. Data mining techniques are used to classify members according to various temporal units expressing their behaviors in order to propose a typology. Results show that, with respect to frequency of use, there are two main types of carsharing members in Montreal, high frequency users (≈ 2.2 transactions per week) and low frequency users (≈ 0.4 transactions per week), the later gathering 86{\%} of the members. Results also show, still based on frequency, that there are five types of weekly patterns and that members have a dominant weekly pattern that is, in average, representative of 62{\%} of their weeks. This study shows that weekly patterns change namely during the holiday periods (summer months, December-January). With respect to weekly distance travelled by members, two clusters are also identified, one gathering 87{\%} of the members with an average of 14.3 km travelled per week and the other ones related to higher averages (76.8 km per week).

The information 3 presented in this paper was created by a working group of educators representing different universities of 4 varying sizes and geographic areas. This working group was tasked with developing a set of " core 5 concepts " and associated knowledge tables for the introductory transportation course. The knowledge 6 tables were designed for the following core concept areas: traffic operations, transportation planning, 7 geometric design, transportation finance, transportation economics, traffic safety, and transit and non-8 motorized transport. Instructors can weave the knowledge tables together by explaining the ways of 9 being for a transportation professional and the course learning outcomes. A key step that will be part of 10 the working group's efforts is to provide more guidance to instructors on the core content versus the 11 optional content. The intent of the working group is not to dictate what exactly should be taught in a 12 particular course, therefore the group created more course content than could be fit into a typical semester 13 long course so that instructors had flexibility. Some of the content though should be viewed as more 14 critical to the transportation profession than others and the working group will be prioritizing some of this 15 content. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the work that has been completed and to get 16 feedback from our industry partners and other academic professionals about the curriculum. The efforts 17 of the pilot studies over the next year will be important for determining the amount of time it is likely to 18 take to cover the information in the various knowledge tables. 19},

abstract = {1 ABSTRACT 2 Machine controlled construction equipment continues to garner support from the construction 3 industry due to shortages of skilled labor, constant technological advances and the importance of 4 construction to the overall economy. However, in order to achieve machine control, reliable geo-5 referencing/positioning of the equipment and end-effector must be achieved. This can also lead 6 to several other benefits, including safety on the construction site, optimization of construction 7 tasks, precision construction and real-time updating of construction records. 8 A methodology for a reliable, stand-alone, real-time geo-referencing system for construction 9 equipment is proposed in this paper. The method consists of a fully integrated Differential 10 Global Positioning System(DGPS)/Inertial Navigation System(INS) to geo-reference the main 11 body of the construction equipment. Inertial Measurement Units(IMU) attached to each 12 operational joint will provide orientation information. This information is used in the Denavit-13 Hartenberg(DH) convention, describing the position of the equipment in 3D space, to create a 14 link between the geo-referenced main body of the equipment and end-effector. 15 There are distinct advantages to this type of approach. It is a more complicated, yet cost-16 effective, system because lower grade (less expensive) IMUs can be made to perform as more 17 stable IMUs by constant re-calibration using DGPS measurements. It is an autonomous system, 18 unaided by line-of-sight survey based equipment (i.e. total stations or laser levels). Finally, it 19 creates a unified model approach for geo-referencing multi-sensor systems that can be applied 20 without accounting for a different set of parameters for each sensor. This is especially 21 advantageous when dealing with construction equipment with varying degrees of freedom. 22 23 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In recent years there has been a considerable increase in the systems used to provide real-time traffic information to motorists. Examples of such systems include dynamic message signs and 511 travel information systems. However, such systems can be used to reduce congestion-one of their primary purposes-only if one can predict the route choices of drivers as a function of the information displayed. This simulator study looks at the diversion pattern that occurs when delays are reported ahead on the main route and how these diversion patterns vary as a function of delay times (for numerical delay signs), message content (for categorical delay signs), use of 511, and drivers' familiarity with the alternative route travel times across two different age groups. For numerical delay signs, the study shows that one can reliably predict the diversion frequencies at the different delays and across the different ages; then it is possible for traffic engineers to know ahead of time how likely it is for drivers to take an alternative route. For categorical delay signs, the findings indicate that drivers' knowledge of the alternative route travel time affects the choices of older versus younger or middle-aged adults differently. When the times are not known, the two groups behave differently; when the times are known, the groups behave similarly. This finding suggests that traffic engineers should try where possible to present the alternative route travel times as well as the delays on the main route.},

Although rear seating is safer, rates of children being front-seated 21 remain high, especially for older children.

In this paper, rural and urban differences in child seat placement within vehicles 26 are analyzed. The objective of this research was to determine if rural/urban differences in child seat 27 placement exist. Based on a small sample of vehicles observed at urban and rural elementary schools in 28 North Dakota, the results of this study indicate that there are significant rural/urban differences in child 29 seat placement. Nearly one-third of overall vehicles observed had children seated in the front seat. 30 Significant urban/rural differences exist in child seat placement, with children in rural areas much more 31 likely to be front-seated than children in urban areas. Differences also exist among vehicle type, with 32 children riding in pick-up trucks more likely to be front-seated than children in any other type of vehicle. 33 Overall, parents were aware that seating a child in the rear of a vehicle is safer. 34 35 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

First, a time series modeling approach is proposed to address and quantify factors that contribute to airport demand variations. The airport demand variation is represented by the quarterly percentile change in the number of passengers flying to and from the airport. The quarterly demand data for each airport are used, with local traffic of the airport separated from its connecting traffic. This separation allows better analysis of demand variations and avoids a portfolio effect on variation attenuation. Factors considered in the modeling approach include seasonality, financial conditions, and incidents. Next, the parameters of the estimated models for the 100 largest airports in the U.S. domestic markets are analyzed to gain more insight into how these parameters vary by airport. Several airport characteristics are considered to explain the parameter differences, which include demand level, number of operations, and airport geographical locations.},

abstract = {This paper provides an extensive review of the research studies employing the cell-transmission model (CTM). Daganzo's original development of CTM was mainly intended to provide transportation planners with another way of predicting traffic behavior for a given roadway section. However, this study found that while the original scope of the cell-transmission model was rather limited to a certain range of applications, many researchers identified CTM as a reasonable modeling framework for a larger array of applications. While, several studies provide variations of the original model with adjusted to serve different specific purposes, it is interesting to find out that the original modeling principles (i.e. the fundamental traffic flow diagram and partial difference equations) are almost unaltered. Researchers employed CTM in many real-world transportation applications such as dynamic traffic assignment, signal control, ramp metering, and traffic prediction. Several traffic simulators were developed based on CTM while others integrated it for modeling specific facilities. CTM development was extended beyond modeling vehicular traffic and some studies proposed CTM as a modeling paradigm for predicting air traffic flow and pedestrian movements. The review provided here is helpful for transportation researchers and practitioners to estimate the potential of CTM and help them decide its applicability in various areas of interest. While the development of the model is not necessarily complete, more work is needed for calibration and validation of the existing applications. This is expected to be done as more real-world data becomes available and as necessity for implementation and usage by transportation practitioners.},

abstract = {Acceleration lanes provide the access to freeways with the aim of improving traffic flow conditions and safety. Therefore, provision of an appropriate entrance ramp and acceleration lane geometry that allows the entering vehicle to accelerate to a speed closer to the main flow speed is crucial for comfortable and safe merging maneuvers. This paper presents an analysis of driver behavior on different acceleration lanes in various traffic conditions performed on an interactive driving simulator. Three different traffic volumes combined with two lengths of acceleration lane were simulated and their effects on driving performances have been studied. It has been observed that drivers' behavior during merging maneuver is significantly influenced by traffic volume on the main lane and that the acceleration lane length does not show any significant effect on drivers' speed, trajectories and accelerations. Particularly higher the traffic volume, longer the merging length of the driver as well as grater the acceleration oscillations and the number of gaps rejected. The general results show that the advanced techniques of driving simulation can disclose the relationships between road design parameters and behavioral aspects important to create safer road infrastructure. Further simulation studies are planned to confirm the findings and to strengthen and generalize the results.},

It aims to inform future games planning but also lessons for general urban planning. It is 6 part of a wider research project applying Olympic transport lessons to the Hajj/Omrah pilgrimage in 7 Makka, Saudi Arabia. 8 Five Olympic TDM measures are described; travel capacity creation, travel behaviour change, 9 traffic efficiency, traffic bans and public transit emphasis. Different Games " approaches and their impact 10 on travel are discussed with particular emphasis on how " base-load " non-games travel is reduced. 11 In general more recent games have emphasised significant investment in high capacity transit 12 infrastructure and much stronger measures for reducing car use than conventionally occurs in host cities. 13 This is because of the relative capacity efficiency of these modes. There is some evidence that more recent 14 games have adopted more subtle TDM approaches such as " test events " and communications strategies to 15 reduce base-load. Evidence suggests reductions in system-wide " base-load " demand of up to 30{\%} occurs 16 and localised impacts can be up to 40{\%}. 17 The Games provide a practical case study for general urban planning since strong TDM practices 18 are applied to achieve significant change in congested cities.

abstract = {Fatalities due to railway accidents occur rarely and some railways identify risks from potential accident precursors. By lowering precursor frequency, the probability of more serious incidents and accidents may be reduced, following the idea of a reverse pyramid between precursors, top events, injuries and deaths. To assist in reducing such risks, a new safety maturity model (SMM) is proposed which aims to address not only the behavioural and/or attitudinal culture, but also technical, operational and methodological elements and actual achievements in terms of safety outcomes.This paper outlines the results of precursor analysis from 18 CoMET and Nova railways, all but two of which are metro (subway) operations. 1Metro railways are urban passenger electric railways with a significant proportion of grade separated (underground or elevated) track and relatively close station spacing. The two commuter routes have longer station spacing and more surface track than most metros. 
                        1, the other two being commuter railways. One of the commuter railways has mixed traffic including freight and long distance passenger trains, while four of the metro railways share lines with longer distance railways.The paper analyses precursors, top events, injuries and deaths as well as safety maturity and their relationships both to each other and to incidents and accidents for the set of the major global metro railways. The 27 precursors analysed, for the period 2002-2009, fall into six categories: human performance; technical failures; passengers: fires; malicious action and management action.To assess safety maturity, a model was developed based upon literature and metro experience. A questionnaire assessed the following safety maturity criteria for each metro: publication of safety reports; periodicity of safety monitoring; prioritisation of safety related incidents; efforts to mitigate risks and avoid incidents; description of safety procedures and monitoring of residual risks. The responses of each metro were scored to determine its aggregate safety maturity level.Statistical analysis indicates a positive correlation between injuries and top events as well as between injuries and precursors. The safety maturity score is correlated with injuries but not with precursors, top events or fatalities. Using these results, this paper proposes a number of measures to improve metro railways safety in each precursor category. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

Conventional measure $\Delta$V 85 , which is 8 the subtraction of operating speed on two successive elements, may fall into ecological 9 fallacy and overestimate the safety level of roadway elements. Aiming at overcoming these 10 pitfalls, the 85 th percentile individual speed difference 85$\Delta$V and the speed reduction rate 11 85$\Delta$VR are developed as alternatives to evaluate the level of safety for freeway exits. Speeds 12 of 7617 individual traceable vehicles on freeway mainline, deceleration lane, upper ramp and 13 lower ramp are collected at 42 exits with radar guns. A three-level criterion is given as 14 guideline for the evaluation of level of safety. Safety level of the 42 exits are evaluated using 15 three different speed consistency measures, namely the conventional $\Delta$V 85 , newly proposed 16 85$\Delta$V and 85$\Delta$VR. The results show that $\Delta$V 85 has the most " Good " and the least " Poor " 17 safety level linkages, and that 85$\Delta$V produces the least " Good " and the most " Poor " safety 18 level linkages. 85$\Delta$VR gives an in-between outcome. Another finding is that the ratio of 19 85$\Delta$V/$\Delta$V 85 is 1.42 for freeway mainline-deceleration lane linkage, 1.68 for deceleration 20 lane-upper ramp linkage, and 1.98 for upper ramp-lower ramp linkage. Historical crash data 21 on 31 exits are available for validation. The validation results approve the reasonability of 22 measure 85$\Delta$VR, which considers not only the individual speed reduction but also the base 23 operating speed on approaching element.},

abstract = {1 The purpose of the study was to develop a new, objective measure to evaluate freeway 2 congestion. Congestion has yet to be consistently defined and measured, Since, however, 3 it has a big impact on decision-makers' choices where and if to invest resources, its 4 definition needs to be clarified, quantified and carefully studied. Therefore, this study also 5 deals with the definition of congestion. 6 A new measure, termed the Critical Occupancy Point (COP), is developed. Based 7 on the known occupancy measure, COP evaluates the change in occupancy vs. speed and 8 defines the point where congestion begins. COP may be developed from data taken from 9 each freeway sensor separately because the information on each segment provides 10 different measurements. It is shown that the COP measure is sensitive enough to identify 11 recurrent and non-recurrent congestion and that it is consistent with traffic-flow 12 conditions where the freeway breakdown process begins. In addition, it was found that 13 the critical occupancy point itself and the speed at which it occurs are distributed 14 normally.},

In such cases where reliable historical data exist, statistical 6 methodology may serve as a flexible alternative to traditional travel demand models by 7 incorporating estimation of trip-generation, trip-attraction and trip-distribution in one model. 8 In this research, a statistical Bayesian approach on OD matrix estimation is presented, where 9 modeling of OD flows, derived from census data, is related only to a set of general 10 explanatory variables. The assumptions of a Poisson model and of a Negative-Binomial 11 model are investigated on a realistic application area concerning the region of Flanders on the 12 level of municipalities. Problems related to the absence of closed-form expressions are 13 bypassed with the use of a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm, known as the Metropolis-14 Hastings algorithm. Additionally, a strategy is proposed in order to obtain predictions from 15 the hierarchical, Poisson-Gamma structure of the Negative-Binomial model conditional on 16 the posterior expectations of the mixing parameters. In general, Bayesian methodology 17 reduces the overall uncertainty of the estimates by delivering posterior distributions for the 18 parameters of scientific interest as well as predictive distributions for future OD flows. 19 Predictive goodness-of-fit tests suggest a good fit to the data and overall results indicate that 20 the approach is applicable on large networks, with relatively low computational and 21 explanatory data-gathering costs. 22 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

The approach mines stop level Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) data and uses new 4 visualisation methodologies in geographical information systems (GIS) to explore spatial and temporal 5 patterns of changes in operational performance. The focus is a large historical dataset of AVL data for the 6 tram (streetcar) network of Melbourne, Australia. A major paper aim is to illustrate how a spatial 7 perspective on networks can improve understanding of transit operational performance. 8 AVL records for 24,451 tram vehicle trips in March 2001 and 26,155 trips in March 2004 are 9 analysed at for 175 tram stops. Arrival travel times and differences between scheduled and actual arrival 10 times are computed for each stop. Analysis then uses the Arcview GIS system and spatial surface 11 interpretation using the Inverse Distance Weighted methodology to explore spatial variations in data.

abstract = {Light rail systems are experiencing a revival in several countries in the world. Nevertheless, they are facing a more and more demanding market which implies continuous new evolutions and technologies. An example of this fact is related to the requirement of avoiding visual intrusion in some areas of cities which are more sensitive to visual impact. This fact has led to the implementation of new solutions that try to avoid the need for overhead contact wires through the whole network or through the lengths between stations. These solutions are based, generally, in the use of new embedded third-rail systems; the use of on-board energy storage devices; or the use of electric energy produced on-board the vehicle. This paper is focused in the explanation of these technologies, their applicability, as well as their advantages, risks and inconveniences, in an attempt to clarify available options and their reliability.},

abstract = {The University of California at San Diego (UCSD), under a Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Office of Research and Development (R{\&}D) grant, is developing a system for high-speed and non-contact rail defect detection. A prototype has been designed and field tested with the support of Volpe National Transportation Systems Center and ENSCO, Inc. The goal of this project is to develop a rail defect detection system that provides (a) better defect detection reliability (including internal transverse head defects under shelling and vertical split head defects), and (b) higher inspection speed than achievable by current rail inspection systems. This effort is also in direct response to Safety Recommendations issued by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) following the disastrous train derailments at Superior, WI in 1992 and Oneida, NY in 2007 among others. The UCSD prototype uses non-contact ultrasonic probing of the rail head (laser and air-coupled), ultrasonic guided waves, and a proprietary real-time statistical analysis algorithm that maximizes the sensitivity to defects while minimizing false positives. The current design allows potential inspection speeds up to 40 mph, although all field tests have been conducted up to 15 mph so far. This paper summarizes (a) the latest technology development test conducted at the rail defect farm of Herzog, Inc. in St Joseph, MO in June 2010, and (b) the completion of the new Rail Defect Farm facility at the UCSD Camp Elliott Field Station with partial in-kind donations from the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway. {\textcopyright} 2011 Copyright Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).},

abstract = {1 2 The majority of transit trip planners currently exist as proprietary systems based on particular vendor 3 products. With more functional components incorporated, the system maintenance and regular transit 4 information updates become burdensome tasks for the transit agencies. Additionally, the proprietary 5 nature of the systems makes it difficult to take advantage of the rapid advancement of geospatial 6 information and Web technologies. This paper proposed an open and interoperable transit trip 7 planning system based on the service-oriented architecture (SOA), with the principle to reuse the 8 existing modular resources, while providing friendly interfaces for future functionality expansion. The 9 objective is to integrate geospatial services available online (such as Google Maps), open-source 10 geospatial database technologies, and path-finding algorithms in a loose-coupled manner. The 11 proposed system was developed with the spatial and temporal transit data from Waukesha Metro, WI. 12 The search results were validated by comparing the outputs from the existing South-East Wisconsin 13 Transit Trip Planner, and the route schedule matching. The comparison results show that the new 14 service-oriented architecture provides a flexible and efficient mechanism for transit trip planners that 15 takes advantage of rapidly changing online geospatial services, yet maintains the core functions of 16 itinerary search that may be unique to each transit agency. 17 18},

In these black spots accidents are not a 'random event' but accidents are common due to varying factors. In this study the accident statistics on three National Highway stretches spanning over 165 kilometers in Kerala, India is taken for the analysis and suggestion for improvement measures. The data is collected from the police records from September 2006 to August 2009 and analysed using accident frequency and severity index methods to identify the accident black spots in the selected stretches. The identified black spots were ranked in terms of their frequency or severity and, the top ranked spots are taken for more detailed analysis by taking into account of the roadway and traffic conditions. The necessary site details were obtained by conducting the surveys. Geometric surveys are done for the stretches using total station surveys, the plan and profiles are made with the help of software packages MICROSTATION and GEOPAK. Autoturn 6.1 software and AUTOCAD 2008 is also used for turn simulations. The collected data is analyzed to suggest the appropriate improvement measures for each location. In this study eight accident black spots over six stretches which include two intersections, four black spots at curves and two mid block sections were taken for the analysis and suggestion for improvements. The range of improvements suggested include from simple traffic enforcement to widening and realigning of stretches by considering the cost involved in implementing the improvement measures.},

abstract = {A key issue for both sustainable transport and public health is the viability of cycling as a genuine alternative to the car, particularly for short trips. This paper considers this issue by assessing hypothetically the travel time implications of substituting actual car trips with cycling. The car trips are captured over several weeks for 178 Sydney motorists using GPS technology, while the cycling trips are generated using reverse geocoding processes in GIS software, taking into account the impacts of terrain in particular on cycling travel times. Both individual trips and more importantly trip chains are considered. Assuming an inexperienced adult cyclist, results suggest that over 90 percent of car trips up to five kilometres in length (which comprise 58 percent of trips), could be cycled within 10 minutes of the time taken by car, a similar finding to results reported elsewhere. As the level of cycling experience increases, the bikeable distance increases with the majority of commuter adults being able to cycle the median commuting distance in Sydney of 11 kilometres with little additional travel time compared to a car. When considering trip chains, while the competitiveness of cycling goes down as more legs are included, the total distance of the chain emerges as a more crucial issue with cycling being equally competitive for trip chains shorter than 10 kilometres as for individual trips shorter than 10 kilometres. Finally, when considered in the context of daily travel time budgets, the analysis suggests around 20 percent of people could switch totally from cars to bicycles without incurring more than a 20 minute additional increase in travel time on average per day.},

Few theories and models have aimed to join these tasks into a single modeling framework. This contribution puts forward a framework to describe both driving task jointly. The the-oretical framework used in the contribution is stochastic optimal control and differential game theory, assuming that drivers make optimal decisions in an uncertain environment, anticipating on the behavior of other drivers. In doing so, it generalizes several well know modeling ap-proaches presented in the past, while it provides a mathematical formalization of previous driver behavior theories based on the concept of effort minimization. The paper presents the theoretical assumptions, the mathematical model, and some worked examples illustrating the workings of the approach.

Receiving operation and retrieving operation in the storage yards are considered simultaneously to achieve a more efficient operation of yard crane. In this paper, the bay allocation and the yard crane scheduling are integrated as a whole process. A mixed integer programming model is developed for the problem formulation with the objective of minimizing total costs including yard crane cost and delay cost. Considering the high complexity of the problem, a simulated annealing heuristic algorithm is proposed to obtain near optimal solutions. Numerical experiments are also conducted to test the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.},

abstract = {This paper proposes a new data-driven stochastic car-following model based on the principles of psycho-spacing or action-point modeling. It uses empirical or experimental trajectory data and mimics the main microscopic behavioral characteristics present in the data. In the action-point model, regions are defined in the relative speed - distance headway plane in which the follower is likely to perform an action (increase or decrease acceleration) or not. These regions can be established empirically from vehicle trajectory data, yielding a joint cu- mulative probability distribution function of the action points. Furthermore, the conditional distribution of the actions (the size of the acceleration or deceleration given the current distance headway and relative speed or given the acceleration before the action) can be determined from these data as well. To assess the data correctly, a new filtering technique is proposed. The main hypothesis behind this idea is that the speed profile is a continuous piecewise linear function: accelerations are piecewise constant changing values at non-equidistant discrete time instants. The durations of these constant acceleration periods are not fixed, but depend on the state of the follower in relation to its leader. The data analysis indeed illustrates that driving behavior shows non- equidistant constant acceleration periods. The aforementioned distributions of the action points and the conditional accelerations form the core of the presented data-driven stochastic model. The paper depicts the mathematical formalization describing how these distributions can be used to simulate car-following behav- ior. Based on empirical data collected on a Dutch motorway, we illustrate the workings of the approach and the simulation results.},

abstract = {Approaches to maximize the throughput of PRT stations under peak demand conditions are examined. Stations must be designed consistent with the limitations of the guideways they serve. It is shown that simple algebraic models can provide key insights into the design issues and limitations. The fundamental design requirement is to minimize the overall berth cycle time, including: door opening, passenger load or unload, door close time, trip initiation, and vehicle resupply. Measured data on the times for passenger loading on the ULTra vehicle are presented. Elapsed loading times were found to be dominated by the door opening times of 10 seconds. Passenger loading times, ignoring door opening and closing, are small, 4.4 seconds for 1 passenger and 8.2 seconds for 4. Unloading times reduce to 3.2 seconds for 1 passenger and 5.4 seconds for 4. These short times are consistent with published data on loading and unloading in other transit situations. Some possible station designs are shown. These have been designed to meet objectives of combining minimum size with maximum capacity. New station designs featuring forward rather than reversing berths provide a benefit in capacity at the expense of some increase in size. It is found that a 5 berth station with current levels of PRT technology can be expected to provide a capacity of 600 vehicles per hour, each loading 4 people. Delivered passenger clearance rates of one every 1.5 seconds compare favorably with bus loading rates of one every 2.5 seconds.},

However, CNG 55 trucks emitted more CO and HC than diesel trucks. Almost all measured HC and PM emissions 56 from diesel trucks were negligible. Measured PM emissions from CNG trucks were also 57 negligible. Detailed tests and analyzed results are presented in this paper. 58 59},

abstract = {Continuous headway fluctuations during peak periods results in continuous density fluctuations over time. The purpose of this paper was to investigate fluctuations in densities and to define and analyze flow flexibility on congested urban freeways. In investigating random processes and sources of variability in density, it was found that variability grows as density itself increases; the relationship is found to be exponential. In addition to the value of the mean density itself, two main sources of density variability can be identified: a " geometric " (and environmental) parameter ($\alpha$), which measures such " external " characteristics as geometry and weather; and a " traffic " parameter ($\beta$), which measures the " internal " characteristics of the stream, particularly the instability of the flow. It is proposed that the high variability in density tends to exacerbate itself, leading to the creation of a " vicious cycle " of density variability, traffic congestion, and further traffic jams.},

abstract = {Improving public-transit connectivity is one of the most vital tasks in transit-operations planning. A poor connection can cause some passengers to stop using the transit service. This work analyzes the performance of public-transit networks in terms of the attributes involved with coordination and connectivity. These attributes are primarily concerned with passenger transfers, and include ride, wait and walk times and type of transfers made, that is, with street-crossing, sidewalk, non-walk and one-leg trip. Based on these attributes, transit-connectivity measures are established as a tool to evaluate the pros and cons of each defined zone of transit lines from a connectivity perspective. The zone of transit lines can be associated with small or large transit networks from which two types of analyses can be made: (i) detecting the inefficiency of connectivity-related issues for the zone, and (ii) comparing the measures between different zones to arrive to the conclusion of which zone is more worthy of improvements. This will allow, for instance, the comparison between cities and between zones in the city. In this work a model is developed to integrate spatial and non-spatial data for the construction of a public-transit network spatial repository, which in turn, is used to classify transfers, and calculate the developed connectivity measures. A case study in Auckland, New Zealand, demonstrates the benefits of the model and connectivity measures.},

Schewel and Schipper 2 Abstract 1 This paper asks as the question: how much fossil fuel does it take to move fossil fuel inside the U.S.? An 2 understanding of this "fossil freight", which takes up a significant portion of U.S. freight's capacity, can 3 support new policies or business innovations to halt and reverse the trend of rising energy use in the 4 freight sector. In addition, it can support a more comprehensive view of the impact of fossil fuel use on 5 the environment and economy. In 1970, freight contributed {\~{}}4{\%} of U.S. CO 2 -eq emissions; by 2007, that 6 figure had risen to nearly 8{\%}. 1 Fossil freight was responsible for 100{\%} of pipeline tonne-km, 40{\%} of freight rail tonne-km, and 15{\%} of 20 domestic waterborne tonne-km in 2007. These modes are an order of magnitude (or more) less energy 21 intensive than trucking, and several orders more efficient than air freight. As the nation reduces fossil fuel 22 use and frees up this efficient freight infrastructure, leaders must construct policies and plan infrastructure 23 to utilize this capacity for non-fossil freight, and, in doing so, tackle the ever-increasing intensity and 24 greenhouse gas emissions from the freight industry. 25 Furthermore, the carbon intensity of freight movement, as measured in 7 CO 2 -eq per ton-mile is still rising, whereas the intensity of passenger travel per person-mile is falling. For 8 freight, this can be largely attributed to a shift in modes: moving to more truck and air freight from rail 9 and barge freight. Previous findings point out the importance of more investigation into the drivers behind 10 the increasing freight emissions, and intensity. This paper tackles one major category of goods that utilize 11 all freight modes, (including pipelines, which are often left out of freight calculations and policy): fossil 12 fuels. The fuel used to move other fuels is called " fossil freight. " In 2007, one fifth of freight's energy 13 use went towards the transport of oil, coal, and natural gas products (down from 30{\%} in 1970). Fossil 14 freight absolute energy has remained relatively constant in the U.S. since 1970, due to a variety of 15 balancing forces: whereas fossil fuel use has more than doubled, average trip length for oil and the energy 16 intensity of key modes (such as oil pipelines) has decreased. The decrease in oil trip length, a key driver, 17 coincides with the increase of oil imports, indicating the importance of consideration of the impact that 18 fuel destined for the U.S. has before it reaches U.S. borders. 19},

abstract = {Many firms use GPS-enabled vehicle trackers to monitor their vehicle fleet. Such data are increasingly being made available by many firms, providing a very rich potential source of information to support modeling of the freight system for public sector decision making. GPS data provide precise and continuous spatial and temporal information about a large number of vehicles for long periods of time. The objective of this paper is to determine the best procedure for clustering GPS trip ends into repeated visits to common destinations. Grouping trip ends into destinations allows the GPS data to be used for modeling and analyzing the repetitiveness of commercial vehicle tours, and for combined models of stop frequency and stop duration. Clustered GPS data are first compared against driver records for one Toronto-based firm for a three-month period in 2007. Driver records are used for external measurement of the validity of various clustering methods. The analysis found that Ward's hierarchical agglomeration clustering (HAC) method is preferred for this application because the clustering results are good and a reasonable computational effort is required. Ward's HAC method was then tested on GPS data for 40 firms using visual inspection of the clustering results. Issues in using a single distance threshold throughout the study region were identified. A novel two-step clustering procedure was developed to address these issues. First, the GPS trip ends were clustered using Ward's method. Second, clusters whose median GPS point fell within the boundary of a single property were combined. Results from this two-step clustering procedure are promising, in that clustering trip ends to destinations covering a large area remained combined as one cluster, while trip ends to nearby, but different, locations were distinguished. An analysis of the number of visits to destinations indicated that few destinations were visited on a daily basis. Hence, travel behaviour for commercial vehicle travel for one day is often not representative of other days and highlights concerns about travel demand models estimated using a travel data set collected over short time periods.},

abstract = {Parking requirements for suburban multifamily housing should be based on solid data and clear policy logic. This paper reports on a comparison of three data sources for estimating residential parking demand: (a) overnight field counts, (b) household surveys of residents, and (c) house-hold vehicle availability data drawn from the American Community Survey (ACS). The area of study is the Inland Empire subregion of Southern California. The parking demand implied by the ACS data is similar to field counts and household surveys. This similarity makes the ACS data a useful source of supplemental data for understanding local parking demand. The analysis confirms the positive relationship between household income and parking demand, and it supports rate structures based on the number of bedrooms in the unit. Comparison of field counts with ordinance requirements reveals that required parking exceeded demand by a modest degree for the projects studied, even when parking is free. Many policy choices are embedded in traditional requirements, such as the use of parking pricing, treatment of visitor parking, use of on-street parking resources, and rules on tandem parking. The paper proposes that local governments generate additional data on parking demand to calibrate their ordinance requirements better. A sequence of policy considerations is suggested for translating demand data to minimum parking requirements.},

To ensure that the TMC software's various modules 4 and algorithms are performing as expected, traffic agencies need to test this software, and 5 thereby identify any constraints or bugs present, before its actual use. Microscopic traffic 6 simulation can support the evaluation needed by allowing the emulation of real-world field 7 deployments of ITS. In addition, simulation scenarios can be designed to evaluate various 8 functionalities of the TMC software including incident detection algorithms, incident response 9 plans, travel time estimation methods, and operation strategies of TMC under different 10 conditions. 11 12 This paper introduces the development of an integrated environment that utilizes an off-the-shelf 13 traffic microscopic simulation tool for TMC software evaluation integrated with developed ITS 14 field device simulators. The environment includes interfaces between TMC software, on one 15 side, and virtual point traffic detectors and/or automatic vehicle identification (AVI) readers 16 within the integrated simulation environment, on the other side. The use cases of this study 17 illustrate that such developments can provide powerful support to the evaluation of TMC 18 software functionalities and TMC operational strategies.},

QCSM is formulated as a mixed integer programming (MIP) problem by considering the ready time for vessels, precedence relationships between vessels (given by berth allocation problem), and non-crossing constraints among the quay cranes. Due to the strong -hardness of the proposed problem, meta-heuristics such as simulated annealing (SA) and genetic algorithm (GA) are designed to obtain near-optimal solutions for QCSM. Both small scale and large scale numerical experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed meta-heuristics. In contrast to traditional quay crane scheduling problem, QCSM can be viewed as an attempt in getting more competitive scheduling plans to utilize the scarce resource of quay cranes in container terminals.},

abstract = {Travelers often reserve a buffer time for trips sensitive to arrival time, being frequently reminded of the uncertainties in a transportation system. This paper intends to model the effects of this risk-taking behavior of heterogenous travelers. Travelers are assumed to choose routes to mini-mize the percentile travel time, i.e. the travel time budget that ensures the desired probability of on-time arrival; in doing so, they drive the system to a percentile user equilibrium (UE), which is an extension of the classic Wardrop equilibrium. The uncertainty in the supply of transportation is incorporated by modeling the capacity of each road segment as a random variable. The proba-bility density functions of these random variables are specified exogenously with flow-dependent parameters. By directly convoluting the link travel time distributions, the distribution of route travel time is obtained. The percentile route time function derived from convolutions does not have a closed form and may not be monotone with respect to route flow in general. Numerical schemes are proposed to evaluate the percentile route travel time and to approximate its Jaco-bian through recursive convolutions. For two special cases analytical percentile UE solutions are obtained and verified by numerical experiments. The analyzes indicate that the travelers with higher on-time arrival probability always use the more reliable route, everything else equal. A route-based algorithm is proposed to solve a variational inequality formulation for the percentile UE problem. An important feature of the algorithm is the use of the diagonal elements in the Ja-cobian of percentile route travel to scale the flow shift, which mimics the Quasi-Newton method for the classic traffic assignment problem. The algorithm demonstrated satisfactory convergence performance and is able to achieve very precise equilibrium solutions in all reported tests.},

The presented approach, which operates on a trip-based demand representation, is derived from an agent-based DTA calibration methodology that relies on an activity-based demand model (Flotterod, Bierlaire, Nagel, 2011). The objective of this work is to demonstrate the transferability of the agent-based approach to the more widely used OD matrix-based demand representation. The calibration (i) operates at the same disaggregate level as the microsimulation and (ii) has drastic computational advantages over conventional OD matrix estimators in that the demand adjustments are conducted within the iterative loop of the DTA microsimulation, which results in a running time of the calibration that is in the same order of magnitude as a plain simulation. We describe an application of this methodology to the trip-based DRACULA microsimulation and present an illustrative example that clarifies its capabilities. 2014 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.},

abstract = {The application of the concept of sustainability by transportation agencies is often limited by agencies' understanding of what sustainability means and how it can be integrated into their regular functions. This paper presents a flexible approach and framework that will equip transportation agencies with the tools required to understand what sustainability means, incorporate sustainability into their organizational culture, as well as to lay the groundwork for the use of performance measures to progress toward sustainability goals and outcomes. The framework development process was an extension of findings from literature review, case studies and interviews conducted as part of an ongoing research project under the National Cooperative Highway Research Program titled “Sustainability Performance Measures for State Departments of Transportation and Other Transportation Agencies.” The proposed framework can be applied/adapted for use in a range of transportation agencies, including state departments of transportation, metropolitan planning organizations, and other agencies. A key feature of this framework is that it moves away from the traditional “sustainable transportation” perspective and instead promotes the consideration of transportation from a holistic “sustainable development” perspective. The framework defines broadly-applicable transportation goals that can be broken down into a menu of objectives and performance measures to cover various transportation contexts. The framework is also designed to direct an agency's strategic planning toward the practical implementation of sustainability through performance measurement.},

abstract = {In this article, characteristics – which can have significant impacts on economical and ecological performance from a logistical point of view - of the last-mile part of the supply chain will be identified and analysed, with a focus on urban areas. This process will be done from an innovation perspective. In the first part of the paper, the “problematic nature” of urban distribution and the last mile, will be described more in detail. Furthermore the different typologies to classify the different last mile delivery methods are shown. The focus in this article will be on the business-to-consumer (B2C) market. When assessing the B2C market, several innovative best practices will be mentioned, for example the introduction of collection points. In the second part of the paper, the aforementioned problems of the last mile will be used to analyze the last mile in an attempt to list up the significant characteristics. The term “characteristics” needs to be interpreted in the last-mile context as “a distinguishing feature that can have important effects on the efficiency and cost structure of the last-mile part of the supply chain”. These characteristics/determinants will be listed using academic literature sources. Product types/groups will be used to classify the different characteristics into a last mile typology. We will try to answer the question which characteristics must companies and the public authorities (for policy measures) take into account when implementing innovative concepts in last-mile logistics in order that efficiency gains, cost reductions and environmental improvements could be optimised?},

abstract = {Incorporating Economic Impact Performance Metrics in Transportation Project Ranking and Selection Processes A growing number of federal, state and local transportation agencies are now including economic development and productivity impact measures in their processes for prioritizing and selecting projects for funding and implementation. However, they face a range of alternative project rating mechanisms and different performance metrics that relate transport improvements to economic growth. The mechanisms include multiple criteria analysis ratings, benefit-cost calculations and composite scoring systems – each incorporating different transportation and economic factors. While alternative rating mechanisms and metrics have been summarized in prior literature reviews, this paper seeks to critically examine their differences and implications for project selection. It shows that alternative rating systems actually share a common underlying theory but reflect different factor weights. However, the difference in factor weights does affect project selection, as illustrated through an empirical analysis of alternative rating approaches developed in Kansas. The findings from this research can help any transportation agency involved in ranking and selecting among alternative transportation project proposals, by enabling refinement of performance metrics, analysis methods and their interpretation for use in future decision-making.},

abstract = {The primary purpose of this paper is to identify travelers¡¯ willingness to commute by bicycles and to investigate the effects of their attitudes on this willingness. To achieve this objective, an attitudinal market segmentation method is presented with a case study of Nanjing in China. This approach uses structural equation modeling (SEM) to simultaneously identify the travelers¡¯ cognitive and affective attitudes, perceptual evaluation on bicycling, and willingness to use bicycles. According to the result of SEM, three attitudes have highly significant effects on the willingness to use bicycle. It is found that travelers¡¯ desire for comfort is negatively related to the willingness; while both their need for fixed schedule and environmental consciousness have positive impacts. And then travelers are clustered into several distinct segments by using these three attitudes and the willingness as segmentation variables in K-Means clustering. The K-Means analysis gives six segments with varying willingness. Each segment is also a unique combination of cognitive and affective attitudes, suggesting that the same willingness can take place for different reasons and that the same attitude can lead to different willingness. The results of attitudinal market segmentation can also identify the potential ¡{\textregistered}mode switchers¡¯ and provide information for developing focused strategies to well serve the targeted segment and to promote more bicycle usage.},

abstract = {1 In July 2007, the Autonomous Government of Catalonia passed a 73-measure plan to improve 2 the air quality in the metropolitan region of Barcelona, Spain. This plan (which turned into law in 3 January 2008) included 80 km/h speed limitations on major highways around the city (e.g., the 4 C-32 highway). One year later, dynamic speed limits (DSL), maintaining the maximum speed 5 limit of 80 km/h, became operational. The objective of the present paper is the evaluation of this 6 policy, what requires a quantitative analysis in terms of congestion reduction, vehicles " 7 emissions and traffic safety. 8 As the comparison between different scenarios must be performed with homogeneous 9 traffic demands (i.e., same productivity), comparisons from direct empirical measurements are 10 not representative. Note that during the period of analysis, the huge economic recession arrived 11 to Spain resulting in a clear reduction of mobility demands. CTMSIM macroscopic traffic 12 simulator [1, 2] was applied instead, simulating different scenarios under the same demand. Data 13 in order to construct the baseline demand scenario were collected from double loop detectors 14 installed in each lane along 14.5km of the C32 highway, accessing Barcelona. 15 A quantitative evaluation of the social profitability of this policy in terms of travel times, 16 emissions and safety benefits is provided in the paper. In addition, some guidelines for the 17 construction of homogenous demand scenarios suitable for comparisons, the characterization of 18 fundamental diagrams, the macroscopic model of the highway based on the cell transmission 19 model (CTM) [3, 4], and the definition and assessment of the different elements constituting the 20 objective function in monetary units, are also described. 21 It is concluded from the discussion, that the speed limit management on metropolitan 22 highways accessing to large cities, cannot provide in case of isolated application significant 23 benefits. 24 25},

The city of Seoul introduced a smart–card-based transit fare scheme in 2004 and distributed free pass smart cards for metro use only to the elderly (over 65 years of age) in 2009. Interest in travel patterns of the elderly, particularly with regard to daily transit use, increased with the introduction of the smart card system. The results show that transit use by the elderly has peak hours at around 4 pm and that their trips are evenly distributed from 9 am to 5 pm on weekdays, which is in contrast to the travel patterns of young people. The pattern of transit use over the weekend is similar to that over weekdays. Based on the transfer pattern analysis, the number and types of transfers made by the elderly are relatively lesser than those made by the young. These findings are beneficial to transit agencies and land use planners for promoting more transit-friendly and mixed-use communities for addressing mobility problems of the elderly.},

Microscopic fuel consumption and emission models use vehicle speed and acceleration as inputs and are suitable for investigating the environmental effects of DTM measures at link level. In reality, the lack of microscopic data limits the application of these models. This paper provides a method to acquire microscopic information from macroscopic traffic data. The main idea is to reconstruct the traffic state and vehicle group trajectories using an adaptive smoothing method, derive acceleration from the reconstructed vehicle trajectories, and calculate fuel consumption and emissions using filtered speed and estimated acceleration as inputs. The derived acceleration is compared with vehicle trajectories from simulation. Validation of the method shows that the estimated acceleration reflects the congestion characteristics. A case study of investigating the environmental benefits of a freeway control algorithm on a Dutch freeway is conducted to illustrate the potential application of the method.},

It was developed as part of a field test on the US-101 corridor, in 4 the San Francisco Bay Area, with a primary hypothesis that travelers will benefit from real-time 5 multi-modal traveler information and would therefore be more likely to consider using transit. 6 PATH2Go integrates a web-based multi-modal trip planning tool that uses real-time information of 7 available transit, traffic and parking availability, a web-based search tool that finds real-time transit 8 arrival and schedule information and a mobile application that provides personalized en route tran-9 sit trip information. PATH2Go integrates these major components of traveler information into one 10 platform and therefore makes it easier for travelers to access real-time information.

The model takes account of the stock of passengers waiting at each station and of the way this stock is organized. We define the attractivity conditions for one transit route compared with the alternative transit routes for a given destination based on the current status of the stock: the transit route in question is attractive when the level of the stock exceeds a certain threshold – its attractivity threshold. We describe a discrete stochastic model for one station and one destination. As the analytical resolution of this Markov model is limited to very simple cases, we convert it into a continuous model for which we describe the equilibrium and the traffic induced on all routes. Finally, the various models are compared using a simple example modeling the competition between two taxi companies on a single O-D pair.},

abstract = {Previously, normal, log-normal and other forms of distribution have been used to characterize 2 speed data. Recently, several researchers used the normal mixture model to fit the distribution of speed. To investigate the applicability of mixture models with other types of component density, this study fits a 24-hour speed data collected on IH-35 in Texas using skew-normal and skew-t mixture models with the Expectation Maximization type algorithm. The results show that finite mixture of skew distributions can significantly improve the goodness of fit of speed data. Moreover, compared with normal distribution, skew-normal and skew-t distributions can accommodate skewness and excess kurtosis themselves, thus the skew mixture models require less number of components than normal mixture models to capture the asymmetry and bimodality present in speed data. The results of this study indicate that 2-component skew-t mixture model is the optimal model and this model can better account for heterogeneity in the data. This study verifies that traffic flow condition is the main cause for heterogeneity in this 24-hour speed data. The methodology in this research can be used in analyzing freeway speed data characteristics. The findings can also be used in development and validation of microscopic simulation of freeway traffic.},

The expectation is that LED street lighting technology will not only provide more efficient light distribution and increased uniformity, but will also save energy and reduce maintenance costs. Seattle City Light (SCL) has a street lighting system of nearly 84,000 street and area lights that use predominantly HPS light sources. Because of the potential benefits of installing LED luminaires as a replacement for these lights, SCL launched the LED Streetlight Application Assessment Project Pilot Study to evaluate LED luminaires for photometric performance, energy efficiency, economic performance, and the impact of the new lights on SCL streetlight system. Project findings will be used by SCL to develop a strategy for the installation of LED streetlights in developing an energy efficient lighting system. The major elements of this project included LED luminaire selection, simulated photometric performance of selected LED products using AGI32, field photometric performance evaluation at selected test sites, and economic performance evaluation in comparison to HPS luminaires. In addition, since combining LED roadway luminaires with new light control systems provides many new options for overall light control, facilitating maintenance, increasing luminaire life, and further reducing operating costs, a preliminary review of current cutting-edge lighting control systems were explored. {\textcopyright} 2010 ASCE.},

abstract = {Paper revised from original submittal ABSTRACT 1 2 Time-Dependent Origin-Destination (OD) matrices are a key input to Dynamic Traffic Models, 3 microscopic and mesoscopic traffic simulators are relevant examples of such models, traditionally used 4 to assist in the design and evaluation of Traffic Management and Information Systems (ATMS/ATIS). 5 Dynamic traffic models are used to support real-time traffic management decisions. The typical 6 approaches to the time-dependent OD estimation have been based either on ad hoc heuristics using 7 mathematical programming approaches, or on Kalman-Filtering. The advent of the new Information 8 and Communication Technologies (ICT), (i.e Automatic Vehicle Location, License Plate Recognition, 9 detection of mobile devices, Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) and so on, makes available new types of 10 traffic data of higher quality and accuracy allowing for new modeling hypothesis leading to more 11 computationally efficient algorithms. This paper extends the previous research on Kalman Filtering 12 approaches for Freeway OD estimation using these data, to more complex topologies of urban 13 networks were alternative path choices between origins and destinations are available. Ad hoc 14 procedures based on Kalman Filtering have been designed and implemented successfully and the 15 numerical results of the computational experiments are presented and discussed. 16 17 The relevance of the estimation of Time-Dependent OD matrices 23 24 Time-Dependent Origin-Destination (OD) matrices are a key input to Dynamic Traffic Models, 25 microscopic and mesoscopic traffic simulators are relevant examples of such models. All 26 computational approaches, Florian et al. (1), assume that the main input is a Time-Dependent Origin-27 Destination matrix, modeling the time variability of traffic demand, whose consequences on traffic 28 behavior will be captured in the model by the time dependent path flow rates and the flow dynamics 29 emulated by the network loading process. A common drawback to all these models is that if the key 30 Time-Dependent OD input inappropriately reproduces the time variability of the demand then, 31 independently of the quality of the modeling approaches, the outputs will not be as good as expected. 32 Therefore a question of crucial importance, both for researchers and practitioners, is how to produce 33 acceptably good estimates of the, so far unobservable, Time-Dependent OD matrices. 34 35 This problem has usually been addressed resorting to the formulation of the problem in terms of 36 mathematical programming approaches, especially those based on a bilevel optimization model, which 37 upper level minimizes an objective function measuring the quality of the estimate, while at the lower 38 level link flow estimates are the output of either, a static user equilibrium assignment, (2), (3), (4) or a 39 heuristic based on traffic simulation (5), (6). The objective function is usually defined in terms of a 40 distance between observed and estimated link flow counts on a subset of links in the network and, in 41 some cases, a complementary term measuring the distance between an a priory OD matrix and the 42 adjusted OD matrix. 43 44 Kalman Filter: a modeling approach that captures time dependencies and inherent randomness 45 of traffic phenomena 46 47 Other researchers have tried to capture the time dynamics of the traffic system formulating the problem 48 in terms of Kalman Filtering approaches, (7). Kalman Filter can be considered as a State Space Model 49 Approach, to estimate the dynamics of a system whose state at each instant k in time is defined by the 50 values of a set of unobserved state variables, represented by a vector x(k)∈ℜ p (where p is the number 51 of state variables).

abstract = {1 2 Congestion pricing has been promoted by economists and transportation researchers as one of 3 the means to reduce traffic congestion. As one form of congestion pricing, dynamic tolling is 4 often implemented on freeway lanes, where the tolls vary with time and respond to traffic 5 conditions. The tolled lanes are high occupancy/toll lanes (HOT) if high-occupancy vehicles are 6 allowed to use the lanes for free. In the literature, many studies have been conducted to 7 determine optimal dynamic pricing strategies. However, most of these studies consider idealized 8 and hypothetical situations in order to derive solutions. In addition, none considers the 9 uncertainty associated with travel demand in the determination of toll rates. This study develops 10 a more robust and proactive approach to determine time-varying tolls for HOT lanes in response 11 to real-time traffic conditions. The toll rates are optimized to ensure free-flow conditions on 12 managed lanes while maximizing freeway's throughput. The approach consists of a scenario-13 based robust toll optimization.

abstract = {School choice policy allows students the freedom to enroll in schools farther away from their residence than their neighborhood schools. Due to lengthened school trips, this policy is perceived to have negative impacts on active school commuting, defined as children walking or biking to/from school. There has been no systematic research on the school choice policy's full implications for school transportation, especially for active school commuting. In this paper we discuss the mechanism by which the school choice policy may affect active school commuting. Based on a conceptual model that integrates ecological and cognitive factors in the understanding of school travel behavior, we suggest that implementation of school choice policy may have potential effects on the environmental and attitudinal factors relevant to children walking or biking to school. We use a case study of a middle-sized school district in Oregon to test some of the effects. School choice policy has been implemented in this district for more than 30 years, and parents who sent their children to choice schools have mainly relied on themselves for school transportation. Using a school-district wide GIS data and a survey data, we investigated the degree to which school choice contributes to longer school trips, the degree to which school choice is associated with varying parents' environmental perceptions and attitudes relevant to active school commuting, and the degree to which school types, based on school choice, affect school travel behavior. Our analysis shows that the school choice policy has significant impacts on increasing school travel distance. For the school district as a whole, the average school travel distance is 1.73 miles under the current school choice program. But the absence of school choice would reduce the total travel distance by 32{\%}. Parents who chose to use the school choice option tended to be of relatively higher family income and higher educational levels. We find that while these parents possessed positive attitude toward ASC, they had tended to give inadequate consideration of ASC in their housing choice. The findings from this research suggest the difficulty of increasing the rate of ASC when some policy serves to discourage the consideration of using ASC.},

abstract = {This paper investigates pedestrians' choices between escalator and stairway inside urban rail transit stations during peak hours. After the review of mode choice models, a logit model based on the utility maximization theory is selected. Binary logit models for the passenger flow distribution are established with walking time, walking distance, gender and age of the passenger as the main influencing factors. The influences of these factors are quantitatively analyzed through data collected from three rail transit stations with different arrangement forms of vertical walking facilities in Nanjing, China. The developed models are verified to produce a high accuracy in predicting passengers' choices of vertical walking facilities. With developed models, sensitivity analyses for selecting escalator for upward and downward pedestrians in the three types of stations are also conducted and compared to further reveal the differences in pedestrians' choices of using vertical walking facilities. The modeling procedure and results can provide a theoretical reference for operation decisions, such as the planning of vertical walking facilities and passenger flow organization in busy rail transit stations.},

abstract = {Ridesharing as a mode of travel is a potential solution to a variety of the transportation sectors toughest challenges including congestion relief, increased energy security, reduced GHG emissions and improved travel options. However, the transportation literature provides little quantified assessment of ridesharing's overall potential. This paper proposes a data driven methodology for estimating the viability of ridesharing at an organizational scale, and seeks to demonstrate its applicability using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology commuting population as a case. The methodology seeks to improve upon previous research by differentiating between modeled rideshare potential based on known trip characteristics, and observed rideshare behavior, within the same commuting population. By comparing rideshare potential to observed behavior, inferences can be made about the relative importance of trip characteristics vs. the importance of human attitudes in rideshare arrangements. MIT-specific results suggest that between 50{\%} and 77{\%} of the commuting population could rideshare on a maximum-effort day. These are values significantly higher than the 8{\%} of the MIT community that currently choose to rideshare. Maximum achievable VMT reductions from daily ridesharing are between 9{\%} and 27{\%}. The disparity between the modeled potential and observed behavior suggests that human attitudes are a much larger barrier to increased rideshare participation than incompatible trip characteristics. The results suggest that policy makers seeking to increase rideshare participation may want to target large organizations and focus their efforts on personalized travel planning in an effort to improve attitudes towards ridesharing.},

abstract = {Transit operators are interested in strategies to improve service reliability as it is an important measure of performance and level of service. One of the common practices aimed at reducing service unreliability is holding control strategies. The design of these strategies involves the selection of a set of time point stops and the holding criteria for regulating the departure time. The interactions between passenger activity, transit operations, and traffic dynamics must be dynamically modeled to analyze the impacts of holding strategies on transit performance. An evaluation of different holding criteria and the number and location of time point stops was conducted with BusMezzo, a dynamic transit simulation model. The holding strategies were implemented in the model and applied to a high-frequency trunk bus line in Stockholm, Sweden. The analysis of the results considers the implications of holding strategies from both passenger and operator perspectives. The analysis suggests substantial gains are possible by implementing a holding strategy on the basis of the mean headway from the preceding and the succeeding buses. This strategy is the most efficient for passenger time savings as well as fleet costs and crew management.},

Haider, Buch, Chatti and Brown 1 ABSTRACT 1 2 Characterizing traffic and developing accurate and desirable traffic inputs for the new 3 Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (M-E PDG) is a critical but challenging 4 activity. The purpose of this study was to develop a process for characterizing traffic inputs in 5 support of the new Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (M-E PDG) for the state 6 of Michigan. These traffic characteristics include monthly distribution factors (MDF), hourly 7 distribution factors (HDF) truck traffic classifications (TTC), axle groups per vehicle 8 (AGPV), and axle load distributions for different axle configurations. Axle weight and 9 vehicle classification data were obtained from 44 Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) and classification 10 stations located throughout the state of Michigan to develop Level 1 (site-specific) traffic 11 inputs. Cluster analyses were conducted to group sites with similar characteristics for 12 development of Level 2 (regional) inputs. Finally, data from all sites were averaged to 13 establish the statewide Level 3 inputs. The effects of the developed hierarchical traffic inputs 14 on the predicted performance of rigid pavements were investigated using the M-E PDG 15 models. An algorithm based on discriminant analyses was developed to acquire the 16 appropriate Level 2 traffic characteristic inputs for pavement design. For pavement analysis 17 and design, it is recognized that site-specific data be used wherever available. For projects 18 where site-specific data are not available, it is necessary to know whether Level 2 or Level 3 19 data are acceptable at a minimum for design. To investigate the impact of traffic input levels 20 on predicted pavement performance for rigid pavements, the M-E PDG was used. The results 21 of the analysis showed that for pavement design in Michigan, statewide averages should be 22 used instead of M-E PDG Level 3 data. 23 24 25 26 27 28 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Madiri and Zhang 2 1 The Federal Highway of Administration (FHWA) proposed changes in the 2009 Manual on 2 Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) establishing minimum levels of retroreflectivity for 3 longitudinal pavement markings. Once these criteria become mandatory, it would be 4 responsibility of concerned agencies to maintain pavement markings at these levels. However, it 5 is not practical to check if all the markings in a jurisdiction meet the criteria, which could raise 6 liability issues. FHWA also proposed that selection and adherence to a maintenance 7 methodology would enable an agency to comply with the standards. This study developed a 8 practical restriping methodology to implement restriping activities of longitudinal pavement 9 markings practically and cost-effectively at a section-level. The methodology includes roadway 10 section sampling, assessment and management procedures based on minimum retroreflectivity 11 criteria and driver's preview distance. Section assessment method (SAM) was developed for 12 sampling and evaluating retroreflectivity of an individual section of road segment. Section 13 management method (SMM) was developed to find the centrality of location to perform 14 restriping activity cost-effectively based on moment of inertia method (MOI). Both SAM and 15 SMM were demonstrated in a step-by-step procedure using an example and a case study, based 16 on retroreflectivity data collected using mobile retroreflectivity unit (MRU) on FM 57, Fisher 17 County, Texas. 18 19 KEY WORDS 20 21 Pavement marking, minimum retroreflectivity, restriping methodology 22 23 24 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

With many related decisions, numerous constraints, and significant sources of uncertainty (e.g. maintenance events), fleet managers face complex dynamic optimization problems. Existing methodologies frequently make simplifying assumptions or fail to converge quickly for large problems. This paper presents an approximate dynamic program-ming approach for making vehicle purchase, resale, and retrofit decisions in a fleet setting with stochastic maintenance events. Value iteration is informed by dual variables from linear programs, as well as other bounds on vehicle shadow prices. In addition to producing optimal policies, the algorithm estimates the value of ev-ery vehicle in the fleet. Sample problems are based on a government fleet seeking to comply with emissions regulations. Stricter regulation lowers the value of some vehicle categories while raising the value of others. Depending on the makeup of a given fleet, the fleet owner may see an increase or decrease in the total fleet value as a result of regulation. The methodologies developed could be applied more broadly to general multi-asset replacement problems, many of which have similar structures.},

To cope with periodicity, nonlinearity, uncertainty and complexity of 3 short-term traffic, the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) and support 4 vector machines (SVM) models are often employed separately to forecast traffic flow time series 5 in the previous studies. SARIMA can discover the intrinsic relations (correlations) among the time 6 series data, especially fit for seasonal, stochastic time series modeling. On the other hand, SVM 7 has a strong nonlinear mapping ability for input and output, appropriate for solving nonlinear and 8 complex problems. A few combining schemes have been presented previously, but they tend to be 9 complicated. So as to establish a simple and effective hybrid model, a novel hybrid methodology 10 that combines both SARIMA and SVM models is proposed to take advantage of the unique 11 strengths of SARIMA and SVM models in this paper. The selection of input features in SVM not 12 only refers to "parsimony, efficiency" modeling ideology of SARIMA model which setups an 13 equation of correlations among the time series data, but also SARIMA forecast results takes as one 14 of input features. Two key issues in building a hybrid model process, the identification of input 15 dimension of SVM via SARIMA and parameters optimization of the hybrid model with particle 16 swarm optimization (PSO), are discussed in this article. Experimental results with real-world 17 datasets indicate that the hybrid model is superior to the individual model (SARIMA or SVM 18 model) in terms of RMSE and MAPE for the prediction of the short term traffic flow. 19 KEY WORDS 20 SARIMA, SVM, Hybrid model, Short-term freeway traffic flow prediction 21},

abstract = {1 The evolution of public transit modes has been a remarkable one, fuelled by the need for 2 different transit modes to handle different demand levels, urban environment patterns and even 3 natural constraints and barriers. One of these needs is the desire to overcome geographical and 4 topographical barriers such as mountains, valleys and bodies of water, which cannot be 5 conquered by conventional transit modes without very large investments and changes made to 6 the natural topography. Aerial Ropeway Transit (ART), a type of aerial transportation mode in 7 which passengers are transported in a cabin that is suspended and pulled by cables, is one of the 8 solutions to such cases. ART has its origins in aerial lifts that have been used in Alpine ski 9 resorts for decades to transport skiers and tourists in cable-suspended cabins. Applying ART in 10 the urban environment, which was once considered an unlikely possibility, has gained more 11 attention worldwide, and now is being used as a public transit mode in several terrain-12 constrained urban areas around the world. This article describes the origins of ART and its 13 advantages, components and service characteristics, available technologies and applications 14 around the world.

abstract = {1 2 In the road geometric design process the speed variation along the road segment is an important issue to 3 consider in order to adapt the road geometry to drivers' expectancies. To achieve this objective, speed 4 criteria are used to evaluate road consistency. Therefore, the ability of estimating the operating speed in 5 the design phase may lead to a safer road. 6 With this objective, several research have been carried out in order to obtain operating speed 7 models. Most of these models are based on spot-speed or radar gun data. This collection method makes 8 necessary to assume a constant speed on curves and therefore that deceleration occurs entirely on the 9 approaching tangent. According to these assumptions, spot speed data are collected at the center of the 10 horizontal curve and at the midpoint or a located place of the approaching tangent in order to obtain 11 operating speed models. 12 This paper presents the results of the study of the deceleration phenomenon using a new 13 methodology based on the use of GPS devices that allows collecting and processing continuous speed 14 data. By means of this new methodology, not only new and more accurate models can be developed, but 15 also the cited hypotheses can be checked. Observing continuous speed profiles allows the possibility of 16 new studies, especially those related to deceleration and speed variations. 17 Tangent-to-curve speed variations have been evaluated, comparing $\Delta$ 85 V and $\Delta$V 85 , analyzing the 18 deceleration length occurring on curve, and developing a deceleration model with radius of the horizontal 19 curve as the explanatory variable.},

abstract = {Length-based vehicle classification is an important topic in traffic engineering, because estimation of traffic speed from single loop detectors usually requires the knowledge of vehicle length. In this paper, we present an algorithm that can classify vehicles passing by a loop detector into two categories: long vehicles and regular cars. The proposed algorithm takes advantage of event-based loop detector data that contains every vehicle detector actuation and de-actuation "event", therefore time gaps between consecutive vehicles and detector occupation time for each vehicle can be easily derived. The proposed algorithm is based on an intuitive observation that, for a vehicle platoon, longer vehicles in the platoon will have relatively longer detector occupation time. Therefore, we can identify longer vehicles by examining the changes of occupation time in a vehicle platoon. The method was tested using the event-based data collected from Trunk Highway 55 in Minnesota, which is a high speed arterial corridor controlled by semi-actuated coordinated traffic signals. The result shows that the proposed method can correctly classify most of the vehicles passing by a single loop detector. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The main objective of this paper is to develop a tool for the prediction of the wet friction be-tween rubber tyre and road pavement. This analytical approach was transferred to a 2D numeri-cal multi-body system consisting of interconnected masses, dampers and springs. The complex strain and temperature dependent visco-elastic properties of rubber are represented by extended Zener elements with prony series approach. Input quantity is the measured texture profile of the road and output is its friction coefficient. The numerical equations are solved by a time step inte-gration scheme. There are 2 modules allowing for the calculation of the vertical movement of the tire tread into the pavement on the one hand and the horizontal movement (sliding motion over the pavement) on the on the other hand. The first one calculates how deep the rubber tread pene-trates into the pavement texture and the second calculates the amount of friction generated. First results concerning the penetration depth are promising although the model is not validated yet. The horizontal movement is causing difficulties for the differential equation solver at the very moment. We are working on a solution to overcome that problem.},

abstract = {Accident prediction models (APMs) have been extensively used in site ranking with the objective of identifying accident hotspots. Previously this has been achieved by using a univariate count data or a multivariate count data model (e.g. multivariate Poisson-lognormal) for modelling the number of accidents at different severity levels simultaneously. This paper proposes an alternative method to estimate accident frequency at different severity levels, namely the two-stage mixed multivariate model which combines both accident frequency and severity models. The accident, traffic and road characteristics data from the M25 motorway and surrounding major roads in England have been collected to demonstrate the use of the two-stage model. A Bayesian spatial model and a mixed logit model have been employed at each stage for accident frequency and severity analysis respectively, and the results combined to produce estimation of the number of accidents at different severity levels. Based on the results from the two-stage model, the accident hotspots on the M25 and surround have been identified. The ranking result using the two-stage model has also been compared with other ranking methods, such as the na??ve ranking method, multivariate Poisson-lognormal and fixed proportion method. Compared to the traditional frequency based analysis, the two-stage model has the advantage in that it utilises more detailed individual accident level data and is able to predict low frequency accidents (such as fatal accidents). Therefore, the two-stage mixed multivariate model is a promising tool in predicting accident frequency according to their severity levels and site ranking. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {1 The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is a classical problem that has been well stud-2 ied by the transportation science community. A special case of the CVRP – where the network 3 is constrained to have a tree structure is studied here (TCVRP). Such tree networks arise when 4 the cost of constructing and maintaining roads is much more than the routing cost; or when the 5 transportation network consists of a main highway (e.g. interstate system) and the customer loca-6 tions are located off the highway. A new variant of the TCVRP, where the customers are divided 7 in to two subsets – linehaul and backhaul customers (TCVRPB in short), is introduced in this 8 paper. Linehaul customers require delivery from the depot; and backhaul customers have supply 9 that needs to be delivered to the depot. In any vehicle tour, linehaul customers must be serviced 10 before backhaul customers. The TCVRPB's relation to the 2–dimensional bin–packing problem 11 is studied, using which conditions for a lower bound on the problem are derived. An Integer Pro-12 gramming formulation of the problem is presented. A 2–Approximation Algorithm, which gives a 13 feasible set of vehicle routes and customer assignments, is also presented. The problem is tested on 14 two real–world tree–like networks of varying sizes, and a randomly generated test network. The IP 15 formulation works exceptionally well on small and medium–sized networks, and the gap between 16 the Approximation Algorithm and the IP solution did not exceed 2{\%} for 9 out of the 12 problem 17 instances tested.},

abstract = {1. ABSTRACT 21 In an Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS), we study how to map a driver's risk taking behavior to 22 real-time routing decisions. Accounting for en-route delays, alternate routing, ATIS networks are shown to 23 exhibit other than the First-In-First-Out Property (FIFO) behavior—drivers who depart earlier may not arrive 24 ahead of those who depart later. The key is to explicitly consider wait times en-route, which accounts for 25 congestion and signalization delays. Given a time-dependent network with full travel-time information, we 26 employ a wait-time search algorithm to account for the best planned delays en-route. The algorithm elicits the 27 bottlenecks in the network and obtains the optimal wait-times that would be favorable to a driver in achieving 28 the fastest travel-time, given her tolerance for risk. Our defined routing policy makes decision at every node 29 based on the current and future network congestion states to determine the optimal wait-time and the next hop-30 node. Empirical results are obtained from a Central Arkansas highway network, showing the different route-31 choice decisions that reflect the risk-taking attitude of a driver and her valuation for risk. Based on Bellman's 32 optimality condition, the proposed algorithm is shown to be operationally acceptable for real-time applications. 33 Key terms: non-FIFO, policy-based routing, time-dependent network, wait time, driving risk. 34 35},

However, most TCDs are not explicitly required, and the decision to use a given TCD in a given situation should be made by an engineer (or an individual working under engineering supervision) based on a variety of information including, but not limited to, the principles in the MUTCD. There are many other factors not addressed by the MUTCD that can lead to different outcomes in the decision-making process. This research developed a conceptual decision analysis process to assist engineers with making TCD decisions based on several different factors. The research activity focused on the theoretical application of decision theory tools towards the selection and use of TCDs. The value of this research is the idea that the decision analysis process for TCDs can be modeled and analyzed using appropriate factors such as need, impacts, influences, and cost. If developed further, this conceptual process could contribute to more uniform decisions among individuals with varying levels of experience in TCD decision making. Even as a conceptual process, it is important to note that it is not the intent to remove engineering judgment from the decision-making process, as it is an important part of the process and should remain as such.},

Traditionally, temporary traffic control devices used during mobile operations have been limited to arrow boards and sometimes static warning messages mounted on a work vehicle. The use of warning signs in advance of an operation typically is not practical because of the constant movement and stop-and-go nature of the work. TMCMSs can fill an information gap for these mobile operations and provide drivers with better information about them, including actions to be expected. This paper describes the use of findings from a human factors laboratory study and basic message design principles to create a sampling of recommended messages for use on TMCMSs during mobile maintenance operations. These messages were defined by the type of work, road type, and the identified concerns to be addressed.},

With the latest developments in vehicle detection technologies, especially probe vehicle technologies, use of vehicle trajectory data has become possible. In this paper, an improved method for queue length estimation for signalized intersections is proposed. This method is able to provide cycle-by-cycle queue length estimation for signalized intersections with sampled vehicle trajectories as the only input. The keystone of the entire approach is the concept of the critical point (CP), which represents the changing vehicle dynamics. A CP extraction algorithm is introduced to identify CPs from raw trajectories. Using the CPs related to queue formation and dissipation, the authors propose an improved queue length estimation method based on shock waves. The performance of this approach is evaluated with several data sets under different flow and signal timing scenarios, including a recently collected data set from a Global Positioning System logger. The results indicate that this trajectory-based approach is promising.},

In order to 4 understand and quantify potential benefits anticipated from IntelliDrive SM applications, there is a 5 strong need to properly evaluate these applications prior to field deployment. For this, the need 6 for an evaluation environment that allows more realistic simulation of IntelliDrive SM applications 7 is clear. Given this motivation, in this paper, an IntelliDrive SM simulation environment was 8 developed, that (a) replicates precise vehicular movements, (b) incorporates IntelliDrive SM 9 wireless communications based on the WAVE/DSRC standards, and (c) finally simulates real 10 IntelliDrive SM message sets defined in the SAE J2735 standard. 11 12 A case study of a prototype lane changing advisory algorithm conducted on a freeway network in 13 Northern Virginia has revealed that communication delays are not likely to be a significant 14 factor, showing the maximum delays of only 55milliseconds for the Basic Safety Message 15 (BSM, 39bytes) and 1.3milliseconds for the A la Carte Message (ACM, 20bytes). On the other 16 hand, the probability of successful communications was found to be a critical factor that can 17 impact the evaluation results significantly. For example, for a lane changing advisory algorithm, 18 the probability of successful transmission of a series of required messages – three BSMs (from 19 each of three involved vehicles to the Road Side Equipment) and one ACM (from the Road Side 20 Equipment to the lane changing vehicle) – was only 50{\%} when there are less than 120 vehicles 21 within a communications radius of 50 meters, implying a significant degradation in the algorithm 22 performance. The results of this case study demonstrates the feasibility of integrating traffic and 23 communications simulation models, and also illustrates the need to consider both components in 24 IntelliDrive SM evaluation.},

When confronted with a lack of data on bicycle routes preferred by local cyclists, the San Francisco County Transportation Authority (SFCTA) developed a freely downloadable iPhone/Android smartphone “app” called CycleTracks to collect actual bicycle routes traversed by city cyclists. Cooperation with local bicycle advocacy groups, along with social media and email campaigns, encouraged use of the app by regular citizenry. Several rounds of pre-release testing showed that making the app start up quickly, and minimizing battery usage during recording, were critical to getting good data. Once installed on a user's smartphone, a single “tap” would start and stop recording a bicycle trip; after completing a trip, the app automatically uploaded the track to a central database/web server, via the phone's built-in data plan. Approximately 5,000 usable bicycle trips were collected from hundreds of users in the region. Demographic data was optionally provided by some users, and showed a bias toward frequent cyclists, and toward male users (even more than cycling is already male-dominated in the region's most recent household travel survey). A bicycle route choice model developed using the data revealed sensitivity to slope, presence of bike lanes and/or bike route designations, trip purpose, and gender. The bike route choice model is now being integrated into San Francisco's regional travel model.},

abstract = {Map-matching algorithms integrate data from positioning sensors with a digital map in order, first, to identify the road link on which a vehicle is traveling, and second, to determine the vehicle's location on that link. Due to errors in positioning sensors, digital maps, and the map-matching (MM) process, MM algorithms sometimes fail to identify the correct road segment from the candidate segments. This phenomenon is known as mismatching. Identification of the wrong road link may mislead users and degrade the performance of a location-based intelligent transportation system (ITS) and services. The main objective of this article is to improve a topological map-matching (tMM) algorithm by error detection, correction, and performance re-evaluation. Errors in a tMM algorithm were determined using data comprising 62,887 positioning points collected in three different countries (the United Kingdom, the United States, and India). After map-matching, each mismatched case was examined to identify the primary causes of the mismatches. A number of strategies were developed and applied to reduce the risk of mismatching thus enhancing the tMM algorithm. An independent data set of 5,256 positioning points collected in and around Nottingham, UK, was employed to re-evaluate the performance of the enhanced tMM algorithm. The original tMM algorithm correctly identified the vehicle's position 96.5{\%} of the time; after enhancement this increased to 97.8{\%}. This compares very well with the performance of tMM algorithms reported in the literature. The enhanced tMM algorithm developed in this research is simple, fast, efficient, and easy to implement. Since the accuracy offered by the enhanced algorithm is found to be high, the developed algorithm has potential to be implemented in real-time location-based ITS applications.},

The related problem of optimally locating sensors on the network to estimate flows has been the object of growing interest in the past few years. Available sensors use various technologies and measure different aspects of traffic flows. This paper classifies sensor location problems in the literature in two categories: the sensor location flow-observability problem and the sensor location flow-estimation problem. This paper reviews the existing contributions for the latter of the two problem types and presents a unifying bilevel optimization framework in which the upper level addresses the location decisions and the lower level addresses the estimation variables.

abstract = {Parking pricing is often seen as a promising way to better manage parking demand and reduce traffic congestion. New York City implemented pricing strategies for commercial loading in the dense Manhattan business district in the early 2000s, and for on-street metered parking along retail and commercial corridors in residential neighborhoods through a series of pilots beginning in 2008. This paper discusses the role of these parking strategies in the context of the varied demands on curb space in different areas of New York City, and then focuses on the peak-rate parking pilots. These pilots are among the first of recent parking pricing initiatives in major U.S. cities to show documented results. Experience from these pilots demonstrates that on-street parking pricing can be effective in achieving goals of increased turnover and availability of spaces, although in different ways depending on neighborhood conditions such as existing levels of parking demand and availability of off-street parking. The pilots show the importance of community outreach and engagement in the planning, implementation and evaluation of pricing strategies. Finally, surveys of drivers conducted as part of the pilots suggests that the widely used parking occupancy goal of 85{\%} needs to be further evaluated. INTRODUCTION There is growing interest in major cities across the United States in opportunities to use market-rate parking pricing to better manage demand for on-street parking and reduce traffic congestion. Parking pricing can encourage motorists to shift to transit, biking and walking and thus reduce demand on street space from single-occupant vehicles. Parking pricing can also increase the availability of parking spaces, reducing mileage spent searching for a space for while also increasing motorist convenience. Based on local conditions and goals, parking pricing can be tailored in many different ways – geographically, by time of day, and for different classes of vehicles (e.g., passenger cars versus commercial vehicles or trucks). Furthermore, parking can be priced differentially for on-street and off-street spaces to encourage turnover of on-street spaces and to encourage all-day parkers to use off-street spaces. Some of the best-known experience with parking pricing is from relatively small cities such as Redwood City, Calif. and Pasadena, Calif. (1) Interest in these concepts extends to major U.S. cities, however. Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Washington DC, as well as New York City, have undertaken major parking pricing initiatives in the last several years. The objectives and scale of city programs has varied considerably. Chicago entered into a citywide concession agreement for the management of all 36,000 of the city's on-street and 880 of its off-street parking spaces in a deal that netted the City of Chicago an up-front payment of {\$}1.2 billion. (2) San Francisco and Los Angeles have embarked on a federally funded set of parking initiatives that include market-rate pricing of on-street and off-street spaces, pavement sensors that will yield real-time information on parking space availability, and parking guidance systems for motorists. (3,4) Washington DC has planned and in one neighborhood implemented escalating on-street parking rates to encourage turnover and manage high-demand ballpark events. (5) New York City has implemented peak-rate pricing pilots in three neighborhoods, focusing on neighborhood retail and commercial areas. Most of these parking initiatives are in the planning or early implementation phases. While there is much to learn from these phases, only limited results are available on post-implementation experience. New York City's initial peak-rate parking pilots, by contrast, offer TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Before the design and operation strategies of interest are 4 analyzed, constructing a micro-simulation model that is able to replicate the real traffic 5 conditions for BRT system is crucial. Hence, calibration and validation of BRT has been 6 considered as a preliminary step that can be included in the micro-simulation based decision 7 making. However, running environment along the BRT corridor are composed of 8 heterogeneous traffic flows, which represents a stochastic, complex real-world system. A 9 practical and robust calibration/validation procedure of a simulation model for a BRT system 10 should be developed. We focus on developing such a procedure with heuristic optimization 11 methods to calibrate and validate a BRT micro-simulation model in VISSIM in this paper. 12 The 16 km Chaoyang BRT Line 2 in Beijing is chosen as a case study. In order to find a more 13 effective way to save computing time, heuristic optimization methods, including Genetic 14 Algorithm (GA) based program and Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation 15 (SPSA) based program, have been developed and compared for the calibration procedure. 16 Driving behavior parameters for BRT, bus and general traffic are calibrated respectively using 17 the two calibration programs. It is found that GA outperforms SPSA method, which reaches a 18 global optimum with reduced convergence speed. Moreover, after the calibration, the Sum of 19 Squared Relative Error (SSRE) between simulated and observed speeds along the BRT line is 20 decreased by 92-93{\%}. Meanwhile, the time-variant characteristics of simulated volumes are 21 remarkably similar to those of observed volumes. 22 23},

abstract = {Travel time reliability is measured in various ways. Measures used in the transportation engineering field include the 90th or 95th percentile travel time, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, percent of variation, buffer index, planning time index, travel time index, skew statistic, misery index, frequency of congestion, and on-time arrival. Correlations and inconsistencies between these measures were observed on a case-by-case basis in past studies, without a full explanation or examination of the fundamental causes of such differing relationships. This paper analytically examines a number of reliability measures and explores their mathematical relationships and interdependencies. With the assumption of lognormal distributed travel times and the use of percent point function, a subset of reliability measures is expressed in relation to the shape parameter or the scale parameter of the lognormal distribution or to both. This process enables a clear understanding of the quantitative relationships and variation tendencies of different measures. Contrary to some previous studies and recommendations, this paper finds that the coefficient of variation, instead of the standard deviation, is a good proxy for several other reliability measures. The use of the average-based buffer index or average-based failure rate is not always appropriate, especially when travel time distributions are heavily skewed, in which case the median-based buffer index or failure rate is recommended.},

abstract = {This paper discusses the appropriate evaluation techniques to assess transit proposals in developing countries. With the shift of ownership models in past decades -from fully public, to fully private, and eventually to consolidated, franchising models -we argue that successful transit projects require analysis of several indirect costs associated with changing ownership. We define these indirect costs to include: (1) the potential loss of personal income for local bus operators if the new investment precludes their continued operation; (2) negative personal impacts in terms of self-worth and changing business dynamics; and (3) long-term impacts on government ability to implement future projects as a result of the obstacles that may result from costs (1) and (2). We propose a methodology in which these costs are explicitly considered in the evaluation process. We assess how various ownership models currently being utilized influence -either positively or negatively -these indirect costs. We conclude that full involvement of local bus operators typically minimizes these indirect costs but may be difficult to achieve depending on the number and characteristics of the operators in the corridor for which the development is proposed. We present a detailed assessment of the conditions under which full involvement is possible; we also suggest alternative techniques to advance the idea of local operator involvement.},

abstract = {Inductive Loop Detectors (ILDs) form the backbone of many traffic detection networks providing vehicle detection for freeway and arterial monitoring as well as signal control. Unfortunately, ILD technology generally has limited the available sensitivity settings and changing roadway conditions and aging equipment can cause ILD settings that had previously been correct to become under or over sensitive. ILDs with incorrect sensitivities may result in severe errors in occupancy and volume measurements. Therefore, sensitivity error identification and correction are important for quality data collection from ILDs. In this study, the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is used to identify ILDs with sensitivity problems. If the sensitivity problem is correctible at the software level, a correction factor is then calculated for correcting the occupancy measurements of the ILD. The correction methodology developed in this study was found effective in correcting occupancy errors caused by the ILD sensitivity problems. Single-loop speed calculation using the corrected occupancy increases the accuracy by 12{\%}. Since this GMM-based approach does not require hardware changes, it is cost-effective and has a great potential for easy improvements of archived loop data quality.},

abstract = {Because through trips can be a significant portion of travel in a study area, estimating them is an important part of travel demand modeling. In the past through trips were often estimated by using external surveys. External surveys were recently suspended in Texas, so Texas transportation planners need a way to estimate through trips without using external surveys. Previous research has focused on study areas with populations of less than 200,000, but many Texas study areas have populations of more than 200,000. This research developed a set of two logit models to estimate through trips for a wide range of study area sizes. The first model estimates the portion of all trips at an external station that are through trips. The second model estimates the external stations at which the trips originated. The models produce separate results for commercial and noncommercial vehicles, and these results can be used to develop through-trip tables. For predictor variables, the models use results from a simple gravity model, the average daily traffic at each external station as a proportion of the total average daily traffic at all external stations, the number of turns on the routes between external station pairs, and whether the route passes through the study area and does not pass through any other external stations. Evaluations of the models' performance showed that the predictions fit the observations reasonably well, indicating that the models can be useful for practical applications.},

abstract = {Many cities throughout the United States require developers of new residential construction to provide a minimum number of accompanying off-street parking spaces. Critics argue that these requirements increase housing costs by bundling an oversupply of parking with new housing and by reducing the number of units developers could otherwise fit on a given lot. Furthermore, the requirements reduce the subsequent direct costs of car ownership by forcing up-front, or subsidizing, consumption of parking spaces, which leads to increases in auto-use and related externalities. We use lot-level data and GIS to analyze parking requirements in New York City to determine to what extent they are already effectively sensitive to transit proximity. We also examine developer response to parking requirements by comparing the number of spaces that are actually built to the number required by applicable zoning law. Our results indicate that the per-unit parking requirement is, on average, lower in areas near rail transit stations, but the required number of spaces per square foot of lot area is higher, on average, in transit accessible areas. We also find that by and large, developers tend to build only the minimum of parking required by zoning, suggesting that the minimum parking requirements are binding, as argued by critics, and that developers do not simply build parking out of perceived marked need. Our results raise the possibility that there is room to tie the requirements more closely to contextual factors and such changes are likely to result in fewer parking spaces from residential developers.},

abstract = {1 Hierarchical Bayesian methods are a powerful extension of commonly used empirical Bayesian methods. 2 Bayesian methodology combines prior information with information from the data to create a posterior 3 distribution. This fundamental principle extends to the development of Poisson hierarchical regression, 4 which allows count data to be modeled as a function of one or more covariates. This framework is extremely 5 useful in before-after traffic safety studies because both the type of crash and covariates included in the 6 analysis may be changed in an extremely flexible manner. No calibrated factors are required, which reduces 7 time and effort necessary for analysis. Hierarchical Bayesian methods also require fewer data in order to 8 achieve valid results. 9 With these distinct advantages associated with hierarchical Bayesian modeling, Departments of 10 Transportation and other entities could be benefited immensely by the use of Bayesian methodology in their 11 research. The relatively recent onset of these methods as they apply to traffic studies, however, can make 12 implementation of new Bayesian methods seem daunting. This paper seeks to help bridge the gap between 13 cursory familiarity with Bayesian methods and thorough understanding of the foundations of Bayesian anal-14 ysis and how to apply them to traffic studies. 15 To facilitate the presentation of Bayesian methods as they apply to before-after studies, an applica-16 tion evaluating the efficacy of cable barriers on Utah highways is presented. The foundational principles of 17 Bayesian statistics discussed may be applied to essentially any situation as the fundamentals of hierarchical 18 modeling are understood and implemented by researchers. 19 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {After a major service disruption on a single-track rail line, dispatchers need to generate a series of train meet-pass plans at different decision times of the rescheduling stage. The task is to recover the impacted train schedule from the current and future disturbances and minimize the expected additional delay under different forecasted operational conditions. Based on a stochastic programming with recourse framework, this paper incorporates different probabilistic scenarios in the rolling horizon decision process to recognize (1) the input data uncertainty associated with predicted segment running times and segment recovery times and (2) the possibilities of rescheduling decisions after receiving status updates. The proposed model periodically optimizes schedules for a relatively long rolling horizon, while selecting and disseminating a robust meet-pass plan for every roll period. A multi-layer branching solution procedure is developed to systematically generate and select meet-pass plans under different stochastic scenarios. Illustrative examples and numerical experiments are used to demonstrate the importance of robust disruption handling under a dynamic and stochastic environment. In terms of expected total train delay time, our experimental results show that the robust solutions are better than the expected value-based solutions by a range of 10-30{\%}. ?? 2011.},

abstract = {The objective of this research is to advance the methodology by clarifying metrics and to increase the detail within the methodology, which is used to quantify resiliency at a preevent state. This objective is accomplished by broadening the scope of the literature that feeds the methodology and by testing the methodology in a case study of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. A specific contribution of this research is the transition of the methodology from a conceptual environment to the real world through the collection of metric values and assessment of the preparedness of Santo Domingo, the capital city of the Dominican Republic, for a Category 4 hurricane. The methodology allows analysts and decision makers to assess the system-level benefit of projects identified as candidates to address weak links in the resiliency chain. The methodology provides outputs that will support a variety of current economic analysis strategies. The central question of this research is, How can one quantify transportation resiliency? To answer this question effectively, one must address the following: (a) How can traditional measures of transporta-tion system performance be integrated into a resiliency measure-ment methodology? and (b) How can these measures be integrated into a computational schema that capitalizes on field measurements or proxy data that are available in real-world scenarios? To answer these questions, this research refers to prior work by the authors on identification of a definable resiliency cycle and a means to relate transportation system performance to socioeconomic viabil-ity in the form of a transportation system performance hierarchy (1). A system that measures performance in the preevent state allows analysts and decision makers to assess the preparedness of a trans-portation network for a destabilizing event. This research extends previous contributions to clarify metrics and to provide further detail within the previous framework.},

Not only are 5 there individual-specific factors that contribute to heterogeneity in non-motorized transport mode 6 use behavior, but there may be family (household-specific) interactions, social group (peer) 7 influences, and spatial clustering effects that contribute to the heterogeneity.

A composite marginal likelihood estimation approach is adopted to 10 estimate parameters in a computationally tractable manner. The model system is applied to a 11 survey sample drawn from the recent 2009 National Household Travel Survey in the United 12 States. Model results show that there are significant unobserved family-level, social group, and 13 spatial proximity effects that contribute to heterogeneity in walking and bicycling activity 14 duration. These effects were found to be significant even after controlling for socio-economic 15 characteristics and attitudinal factors that captured individual attitudes and values towards non-16 motorized modes. The unobserved effects were also found to have a differential impact on 17 bicycling activity duration, thus suggesting the need to treat and model walking and bicycling 18 separately in transportation modeling systems.},

In recent years, there have also been some attempts to also explore its potential to act as an anchor for denser, sustainable development and specifically as an anchor for transit oriented development (TOD). Yet very little quantitative evidence exists of the potential land use impacts of BRT. In this paper, we begin to address this by focusing on unused residential development capacity in proximity to New York City's proposed Select Bus Service (SBS) corridors that are due to come on line in the next half decade. We explore if there is a need for additional criteria in selecting SBS corridors, especially relevant in the context of Federal attempts to better coordinate local transportation and land use planning. We use GIS tools to identify all residentially-zoned lots in New York City that were developed at less than 50{\%} of their zoned capacity as of 2008 and compare these to 1/2 mile walking distance catchment areas around the proposed SBS corridors. We find significant unused capacity in these catchment areas; about 20{\%} of lots are underdeveloped by our definition. This may highlight the need for policymakers to be cognizant of land use patterns when they are proposing transit improvement interventions. It may also create significant opportunities for City agencies to work together in response to the new Federal imperatives.},

abstract = {Estination of the time needed to evacuate a population from a threatened area in case of a disaster is one of the main issues in the design of an evacuation plan. The challenge is to develop a strategy that optimally use the network capacity to minimize the total evacuation time. In this paper, the impacts of various departure time spans on evacuation time and network performance are investigated with a microscopic traffic simulation model. The network performance has been analyzed with the use of the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD). Although the MFD usually shows a decrease in travel production after a peak is reached, this is not the case in the simulation of evacuation scenarios. The outflow of the network remains constant because it depends on the capacity of local bottlenecks upstream of the limited number of destinations, but the number of vehicles in the network increases because of an increase in congestion. Although the overall network performance is insensitive to the evacuation time spans, it is observed that for shorter evacuation time spans, internal gridlock effects cause lengthy delays for specific groups of drivers, who, it turns out, are unable to leave the network in time. The use of a simulation study in combination with an MFD can therefore identify the routes used and the bottlenecks on these routes leading to the destinations, while the maximum production level (defined as the number of arrivals, determined in the MFD) indicates the optimal level of demand.},

This study devised a measurement method to obtain precise bicycle trajectories using a real-time kinematic global positioning system (RTK GPS). This measurement method achieves very satisfactory accuracy with regard to identifying the desirable minimum bike lane width when considering the bicycle width, Essential Maneuvering Space (EMS), and Comfortable Lateral Clearance (CLC). The width of a bicycle was obtained by investigating common bicycle types in the field. The EMS experiments were performed for speeds of 10, 20, and 30 km/h along test tracks with widths of 1.1, 2.0, and 3.0 m using an RTK GPS. The CLC experiments were repeated 300 times with the same preset speeds as in the EMS tests. Based on the results of this study, the bike lane width should be at least 2.0 m to allow for rider stability on roadways with no curb or gutter. In the future, desirable geometric standards for various types of bike lanes need to be formulated using real data collected with advanced measurement apparatuses.},

abstract = {Freight traffic, is one of the most rapidly expanding traffic sectors. In spite of the current recession a further increase of the transport performance is expected in the long term, particularly so for road freight traffic. Normally time series of economic indicators are used as reference parameters for forecasting, whereas causal deduction of the traffic development is neglected. Another tool for forecasting are transport models which are also used for traffic planning and management. Often these models use aggregated data such as the production area of a company to determine induced traffic. Logistics and procurement concepts which directly impact transports are not implemented. Against this background this paper analyzes the relationship between transports induced by logistics and production by example of the German automotive supply industry. An empirical analysis was established to collect company data, which were evaluated statistically. Additionally, different hypotheses were defined to analyze the relation between logistics parameters and induced traffic. After that the significant results of the hypothesis testing were converted into statistical distribution matrices. Based on these and other statistical data a new approach to generate synthetic transport chains was developed. The result of the work represents an extended database to derive traffic impacts in production networks and improves transport modeling. Thus, a contribution to explain traffic is made which is of importance especially for economy. In particular, due to the identification of causal relationships between logistics concepts, business characteristics and traffic volume new input parameters could be obtained.},

Because of the presence of those systems in main urban areas, quality plays a very important role in installation of new systems and maintenance and renewal/refurbishment of older systems. Within the frame of the European project Urban Track (2006 – 2010), different rail technologies have been developed for renewal, maintenance and refurbishment of urban rail systems. The innovative aspects vary from very fast replacement of tracks, prefab technologies and inspection methods of tracks. Another goal of the innovative track technologies is the realization of a reduction of costs of 25{\%} combined with a better performance for noise and vibrations. As part of the economic assessment of the newly developed rail technologies, the authors have developed a socio-economic assessment methodology that can be used in combination with a life cycle cost tool. The methodology assesses the quantitative and qualitative impact of installation or maintenance activities of rail technologies on neighbouring citizens and business, road traffic and public transport and the environmental effects. The methodology has been tested on several validations sites and shows the importance of taking socio-economic costs into consideration in the decision making process. Some short time advantages like fast installation might result in long term disadvantages like more noise and vibrations or high environmental costs.},

This paper describes how a transit bus life-cycle cost model (LCCM) spreadsheet tool was developed to assist transit agencies in forecasting life-cycle operating and capital costs when choosing among various bus technologies, including hybrid buses. The tool is a key deliverable in a project sponsored by Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) to assess hybrid-electric bus performance in real-world operation. Forty hybrid-electric buses were evaluated at four U.S. transit agencies, along with comparable conventional diesel and compressed natural gas (CNG) buses. The LCC tool was created to cover key capital and operating cost factors based on the real-world data collected. The model is very flexible, and nearly all of the data can be overridden by the user so that it can be used into the future as costs and technologies change. This paper focuses on the model structure, described the case study buses, and illustrates an example life-cycle cost calculation using the model. More information about the project and its other results and deliverables can be found in TCRP Report 132.},

abstract = {To maintain (or increase) public transport market share is a common preoccupation of transport authorities, particularly relevant in developing countries, where the natural (and desirable) income increase brings along higher car ownership rates. Therefore, identifying which clients are at risk of abandoning the system can be valuable to take remedial measures, allowing more focused quality improvements. We present and apply a model that captures the probability of migrating from public transport to private modes both at aggregate and disaggregate level. In the application presented the model predicts migration with 60 {\%} accuracy in the first preference recovery measure. This model contributes to a better understanding of public transport users behavior, the analysis of demand stability and the factors influencing migration. This could help to focus policy and management measures, increasing the efficiency of public investment.},

This research tested the use of an Immersive Virtual 3 Learning Environment (IVLE) simulating real-world highway work zones. IVLEs go beyond traditional 4 visual learning by presenting images that combine a new form of visual learning and virtual-experiential 5 learning in a way that is more congruent with an individual's visual images stored in memory and moves 6 the adult learner out of the classic classroom and into an environment that diminishes intimidation,. 7 Immersive engagement allows the learners to move beyond memorization of the content and into 8 application and synthesis of the material thus improving knowledge transfer and retention. 9 A quasi-experimental design used a sample of 305 highway workers, who were diverse in 10 education, socio-economic background, and propensity to use technology. Through a process of blind 11 random selection, half the sample participated in the traditional class (control) and half participated in a 12 blended delivery method class, incorporating the virtual learning environment (experimental). This paper 13 reports on the initial qualitative findings of the study. The results of the quantitative study and a 14 longitudinal study of knowledge transfer and retention are planned for subsequent phases of this study. 15 This research established a solid theoretical and evidence based link between use of the IVLE and 16 knowledge gain for that technologically marginalized population that forms the bulk of the employment 17 pool for transportation entry level positions.},

abstract = {A number of trucking companies use GPS devices for fleet management. Data extracted from these devices can provide valuable traffic information such as spot (instantaneous) speeds and vehicle trajectory. However, the accuracy of GPS spot speeds has not been fully explored, and there is some concern regarding their use for estimating truck travel speed. This study addressed this concern, initially comparing GPS spot speeds with speeds estimated from dual loop detectors. The authors devised a simple speed estimation method based on GPS spot speeds to estimate link travel speed and compared that method to space mean speed estimation based on GPS vehicle location and time data. The analysis demonstrated that aggregated GPS spot speeds generally 1 matched loop detector speeds and captured travel conditions over time and space. Speed 0 estimation based on GPS spot speeds was sufficiently accurate in comparison to space mean speeds, with a mean absolute difference of less than 6 percent. It is concluded that GPS spot speed data provide an alternative for measuring freight corridor performance and truck travel characteristics.},

abstract = {The third phase of the " Evaluation of Non-Intrusive Technologies for Traffic Detection " (NIT) project is a pooled fund study that conducted field tests of selected non-intrusive sensors to determine their accuracy for volume, speed and classification by length and classification by axle configuration. Sensors were evaluated in a variety of traffic and environmental conditions at two freeway test sites, with additional tests performed at both signalized and unsignalized intersections. Emphasis was placed on urban traffic conditions, such as heavy congestion, and varying weather and lighting conditions. While previous tests have evaluated sensors' volume and speed accuracy, the current generation of non-intrusive sensors has introduced robust classification capabilities. New technologies, such as ground-mounted laser sensors, and improved radar, contribute to this improved performance. Overall, the sensors performed better than their counterparts in previous phases of research for volume and speed accuracy. However, the additional classification capabilities had mixed results. The length-based sensors were generally able to report vehicle lengths within their tolerances, and the axle-based sensors provided accurate inter-axle measurements, but significant errors were found in relating this data to a standardized classification scheme, such as the FHWA's 13 class scheme. Agencies must perform independent analysis of their classification schemes to determine whether non-intrusive sensors will provide acceptable results.},

abstract = {The concept of a congestion threshold is embedded in the definition of "congestion." Two basic approaches exist in current practice for setting the congestion threshold. One common approach uses the free-flow or unimpeded conditions. Another approach uses a variety of targets or acceptable conditions. The limited research conducted on the congestion threshold issue has focused on operational problems or policy debates, but there has been relatively little investigation of the effect of the congestion threshold on decision making for transportation investment and resource allocation. This research investigated the differences that might be seen in the worst freeway rankings for several threshold choices by using detailed freeway data from seven metropolitan areas. Specifically, this research examined the ranking values of two congestion measures under a variety of real-world travel time distributions. The congestion performance measures of delay per mile and travel time index were evaluated; these measures included different aspects of the congestion problem. The research results showed that the rankings of freeway congestion levels held steady across the set of congestion thresholds ranging from 60 to 30 mph. The same sections were ranked as very congested for all possible threshold values. From an investment point of view, therefore, the research found that congestion threshold speed should not be a concern for funding allocation. The data analysis found that the amount of delay was decreased by 10{\%} for every 5 mph decrease in the congestion threshold speed. This decrease confirmed that thresholds were not irrelevant for all analyses.},

abstract = {Data assimilation techniques are a process of using measurements combined with 1 model predictions to (optimally) estimate the value of a certain set of variables. These 2 techniques belong to a group of model-based estimation approach. In traffic science, the 3 Kalman filter and its family, namely extended Kalman filter (EKF), have been widely applied 4 to traffic state estimation problems. Basically, the EKF is successful in terms of computation 5 and provides some reasonably accurate results. However, traffic systems are generally so 6 nonlinear that the linearization used in the EKF is not always straightforward. To avoid such 7 linearization, another family of Kalman filter, the unscented Kalman filter (UKF), has been 8 designed to account for the nonlinear system in which a set of deterministic sample points are 9 chosen to capture the initial probability distribution. These sample points are then propagated 10 through the nonlinear system and the probability density function of the actual state is 11 approximated by the ensemble of the estimates. In the UKF, the number of sample points is 12 determined by the dimension of the states to be estimated so that it will become rather 13 computationally expensive when the size of traffic networks is increased. To this end, this 14 paper is dedicated to the approximation of the UKF in which the required sample points are 15 reduced. Numerical experiments were carried out to assess the relevance of the proposed 16 approach with real traffic data and comparisons with the UKF regarding the level of accuracy 17 and computational time were made. 18 19 Keywords: Unscented Kalman Filter, reduced rank covariance, traffic flow estimation. 20 21 INTRODUCTION 22 23 Traffic state is defined as the classification of traffic flow situations in time and space: free-24 flow, congested, or some other complex phenomena such as stop-and-go waves, synchronized 25 flow, oscillatory flow, etc. [1]. The traffic state estimation is a process to optimally match 26 traffic measurements from sensors with traffic flow predictions from a dynamic traffic model 27 under any specific control strategies such as speed limits or ramp metering. This type of 28 traffic estimation problems belongs to a group of model-based approach. Nevertheless, it is 29 worth mentioning another type of traffic estimation problems which belongs to the group of 30 data driven approach (see [2] and references therein). As far as the model based approach is 31 concerned, many filters have been developed for the estimation of traffic systems. The 32 traditional Kalman filter (KF) and its variants such as extended Kalman filter (EKF) and 33 unscented Kalman filter (UKF) have been widely applied in traffic state estimation with a 34 certain success [3-6]. Generally speaking, it all depends on the type of traffic models so that 35 a relevant filter is applied. For example, Wang and Papageorgiou [3] have applied the EKF 36 based on the second order macroscopic traffic model of Payne [7]. van Lint et al.[8] have 37 used the EKF in a multi-class first order model. Ngoduy [5, 6] has proposed the UKF for the 38 multi-class traffic estimation. In principle, when the traffic model is nonlinear the EKF uses 39 linearized equations for the error covariance evolution. The EKF-based framework for 40 homogeneous freeway network estimation has shown some advantages: cheap computation 41 and reasonably good results. However, when the traffic model is highly non-linear, the 42 linearization is not straightforward and could lead to instabilities for the error evolution, 43 therefore the UKF is a good alternative ([5, 6] and references therein). Another type of 44 filtering technique has been adopted for non-linear freeway traffic state estimation which is 45 related to a type of discrete stochastic approximation to the optimal filter by using the Monte 46 Carlo method, namely ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) [9] and Particle filter (PF) [10, 11]. In 47 the UKF, the number of sample points is deterministically calculated whereas, in the PF, the 48 number of sample points is chosen randomly between 200 and 400 depending on the 49 dimension of the states to be estimated [10]. The number of sample points is increased with 50 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {An adaptive traffic signal system was installed on a 12-signal, 2.5-mi (4-km) arterial in Lee's Summit, Missouri in the Spring of 2009. An evaluation of travel time, delay, number of stops, fuel consumption, and emissions was conducted, which compared operational measures taken before implementation of the system to the same measures taken one month and five months after implementation. The evaluation found that travel time through the corridor decreased by up to 39 percent, depending on time of day and direction of travel. In the southbound direction, a statistically significant decrease in travel time was observed for all study time periods. In the northbound direction, the AM peak and morning off-peak periods saw no statistically significant change in travel time, while all other periods saw significant decreases. Improvements were greater in the southbound direction because the previous timing plan favored the northbound direction, especially during the morning. The number of stops, fuel consumption, emissions, and time spent in congestion decreased during the time periods when travel time decreased. Minor-approach delay was measured at four intersections along the study corridor and ranged from a decrease of 3 sec to an increase of 12 sec. The evaluation results indicate that the adaptive traffic signal system is effective in reducing travel time, delay, number of stops, fuel consumption, and emissions for traffic traveling through the corridor. The increase in delay to minor-street traffic was more than offset by the decrease in major-street delay.},

abstract = {It has long been recognized that changing the signal timings in a network generally 1 causes some re-routing of traffic, and that repeatedly optimizing the signal timings assuming 2 that the current flow pattern remain fixed may lead to a steady deterioration in network 3 performance (the resultant solution is known as the " mutually consistent " solution, because 4 the flow pattern is a function of the timings and the timings are a function of the flows). On 5 the other hand, if this potential re-routing effect is recognized and taken account of, it may be 6 that signal control can be used beneficially to persuade drivers into a more preferable routing 7 pattern. Consequently, a great deal of work has been carried out over many decades to 8 develop techniques for determining the optimal timings for signals either at isolated 9 intersections or in a coordinated manner in networks of junctions. Our primary aim here is to 10 apply a relatively new method, the cross entropy method (CEM), for the optimization of the 11 signals in a network, using a user equilibrium assignment model to describe the route choices 12 of drivers in response to any signal timings. The results from the CEM are compared with 13 those from a genetic algorithm approach to the same problem, considering the quality of the 14 final solutions obtained from the two approaches and the computational effort required. 15 16 Keywords: cross entropy method, genetic algorithm, optimal signal timings, user equilibrium. 17 18 INTRODUCTION 19 20 Traffic signals have been used in urban networks to control traffic and reduce congestion for 21 many decades. Methods to find optimal signal timings were proposed by Robertson [1] and 22 incorporated in TRANSYT where traffic signals operate on pre-set timings designed to 23 minimize a performance index composed of delays and stops. Later research recognized that 24 changing the signal timings in a network generally causes some re-routing of traffic, and that 25 repeatedly optimizing the signal timings assuming the current flow pattern will remain fixed 26 may lead to a steady deterioration in network performance -this resultant solution being 27 referred to as the " mutually consistent " (MC) solution, because the flow pattern is a function 28 of the timings and the timings are a function of the flows [2, 3]. In recent years, the study of 29 optimal signalization considering route choices has been carried out intensively by Cantarella 30 and Importa [4], Gartner and Al-Malik [5], Ceylan and Bell [6, 7], Cantarella et al. [8] and 31 Fitsum et al.[10]. As with this previous work, it is fixed-time control which is the scope of the 32 research in this paper. 33 The problem of finding a optimal set of signal timings in urban networks is a complex 34 combinatorial optimization problem for which many alternative algorithms have been 35 investigated but for which there is as yet no fully accepted method. Cantarella and Importa 36 [4] presented an iterative procedure to optimize the offsets. In general, the iterative 37 procedures that have been reported are cumbersome and unable to guarantee an optimal 38 solution to the problem. Chiou [11] proposed a gradient-based method for area traffic control 39 under equilibrium network flows. Ceylan and Bell [6, 7] adopted a genetic algorithm (GA) 40 approach to produce optimal signal timings assuming stochastic route choice. Subsequently 41 Fitsum et al [10] also applied GA to find the optimal timings assuming deterministic route 42 choice. Cantarella et al [8] carried out a comparative study of several optimization algorithms 43 for the MC problem, such as Hill Climbing (HC), GA, Simulated Annealing (SA) and Tabu 44 Search (TS). They found that GA, SA and TS perform similarly although a type of hybrid (eg 45 GA+TS) is more efficient sometimes. To contribute to the state-of-the-art, this paper presents 46 a relatively new method, namely the cross entropy method (CEM) proposed by Rubinstein 47 [12], for the optimization of the signals in a network using a (deterministic) user equilibrium 48 assignment model to describe the route choices of drivers in response to any proposed signal 49 timings.

Many studies have been conducted in the realm of truck 4 freight movement yet there remains a need for research tools to support the important role of cities in 5 truck route planning. This paper argues that traffic simulation linked to emission models coupled with 6 GIS can be used effectively to support truck route planning process in cities. To demonstrate the 7 usefulness of these tools, this paper presents the application of traffic simulation and GIS in evaluating 8 the truck route alternatives in the City of Hamilton, Canada. The truck route alternatives are compared 9 using network system usage and performance indicators generated through TRAFFIC, the application 10 used for traffic simulation. Some useful evaluation indicators are derived using GIS that reflect the main 11 considerations of the truck route master plan. The evaluation results show that there is negligible 12 difference between the proposed truck route alternatives from the existing truck routes in terms of 13 measures and derived indicators. The traffic simulation linked to an emission model effectively provides 14 useful measures and indicators that support the evaluation of truck route alternatives. The maps generated 15 through GIS serve as a discussion platform in the evaluation of truck route alternatives. These tools can 16 be further tested in truck route planning for other cities. 17 18},

In this paper, we propose a method to estimate the weekday peak hour 21 mean flow using two consecutive weekday counts, which is able to characterize the estimation 22 uncertainty and does not require creating and assigning factor groups. Our ultimate goal is 23 to use estimates of peak hour flow as an input to model-based estimates of arterial travel 24 time. Our model assumes that there exist similarities between a short-count site and an 25 automatic traffic recorder (ATR) site in terms of temporal variation patterns and day-to-26 day flow covariance during peak hours. Given an ATR site and a pair of two-day counts 27 for a short-count site, the posterior distribution of the weekday peak hour mean flow for 28 the short-count site is derived. When a number of ATRs are available, the mean, variance, 29 and 95{\%} confidence interval of the weekday peak hour mean flow for the short-count site are 30 calculated as the data-driven weighted averages of the estimates given individual ATRs. The 31 proposed method is evaluated using actual Twin Cities 2005 ATR data and a leave-one-out 32 cross-validation approach. It shows that more than 70{\%} of short-count sites are able to 33 capture the ground truth at a significance level of 0.05. We found that the estimation error 34 is mainly caused by the temporal variation factor difference between a short-count site and 35 the ATR sites providing it with adjustment factor information.},

abstract = {Relationships between macroscopic traffic level and time headway distribution are dis-cussed in this paper. The latter is under microscopic approach that has been a subject for study for many decades. Until now, a number of authors have studied time headway distribution as a func-tion of aggregate traffic volume and used different probabilistic models. Based on previous works, the gamma-Generalized Queuing Model (gamma-GQM) has been shown a very high performance and effectiveness in modeling real-life time headway data in most cases. Consequently, the param-eters of the gamma-GQM are focused in this paper to investigate the links between macroscopic information and time headway variable. The systematic data collected from the RN118 national roadway in 2005 in France allow us to look at not only the effects of traffic volume but also of the traffic occupancy, and space mean speed on time headway distribution. These macroscopic variables are obtained on the basis of the calculation aggregated over 6 minutes of data. Moreover, the study of time headway distribution following the empirical fundamental diagram is also im-plemented. On the other hand, exogenous conditions such as weather condition and lane type are taken into account. As the result, the variations of the gamma-GQM parameters are established and interpreted according to the different contexts. Finally, two exogenous factor types influenc-ing time headway distribution in standard condition are proposed to be distinguished. These two factors called impeding and propulsive factors, are discriminated by the different tendencies of the scale parameters of the gamma-GQM compared with the corresponding values in the standard condition.},

abstract = {Noise is an environmental problem that affects people's lives. Negative noise effects include annoyance, sleep disturbance and reduction of property values. A dominant source of environmental noise in urban areas is the motorized vehicle traffic flow on the transportation network. The purpose of this paper is to determine, for given noise level limits and total trip demand, the optimal trip distribution in the planning phase of a new neighborhood. An algorithm to solve the combined traffic assignment and noise problem is developed. A key feature of the algorithm is a method to find the equivalent maximum traffic volume for each road segment without exceeding the noise criterion for each of the designated receivers. The result of the process is a modified OD matrix which could be used for neighborhood planning. The paper shows an implementation of the algorithm for a real case.},

abstract = {The concept of "complete streets" has gained momentum as a way to make communities more livable. This study presented a novel way to assess completeness, given context and public input. The approach was to use a four-dimensional audit for automobiles, transit users, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Although other assessment methods are intended to evaluate operational performance, this study proposed an audit-based assessment method as a valuable addition for planning purposes. Audit results were plotted on four axes to depict a provision profile to compare the balance between the modes. The most significant innovation was a framework to calculate a completeness score according to a community's vision for that particular street. Advantages of the framework were demonstrated through a case study in which 67 streets were assessed in a small, rural community. A review of the results revealed that some streets, as the result of the community-defined context, received completeness scores that were better than expected. Public volunteers provided critical input in the case study, and their role is explained in this paper.},

abstract = {The Self Separation Operational Concept (ConOps) aims to provide a solution to the efficient management of the expected radical increase of air traffic in the forthcoming years. The major features of this Air Traffic Management (ATM) concept relate to the delegation of the separation task from the Air Traffic Controllers to the flight crew for a defined part of the airspace. A major prerequisite of the full scale implementation of the self separation concept is the examination of its institutional and economic feasibility. This paper aims to provide the methodological steps for the identification of the legal and institutional barriers and enablers that may relate to the introduction of such a concept as well as an analysis of its economic viability. The expected outcome of the institutional analysis is to determine the changes in the existing institutional framework that may facilitate the introduction of the new concept. Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) is applied for the economic appraisal of the ATM changes proposed in the concept. Given that the self separation ConOps is in its definition phase, scarcity of cost and benefit data is encountered. A methodological framework is proposed for applying the CBA for this type of ATM operational concepts. Applying the institutional analysis for Europe indicated that changes in the relevant regulatory framework should be in place in order to deploy the proposed concept. Moreover, exemplary results from the application of the proposed CBA framework in Europe encourage the development of the Self Separation ConOps to the next maturity stage.},

The toll road operates under a quasi-dynamic tolling regime with pre-determined peak toll rates among the highest in the country on a per mile basis. The relatively high pricing and long-standing traffic history allows for an examination of travel patterns using the revealed preferences of commuters in the corridor. Given recent developments in the US PPP market, SR-91 provides an interesting case study for planned High-Occupancy Toll (HOT) facilities operating in existing urban travel corridors. The current study seeks to estimate the value assigned to improved levels of service on tolled facilities via observed travel time data within the corridor on both the free and tolled lanes. The research project estimates the explicit willingness to pay for commuters and confirms Value of Time (VOT) alone fails to explain the relatively high level of utilization rates given average travel time savings and the income distribution observed within the commutation market area. The rich data set allows for an alternative explanation based on the relative volatility of travel speeds and the associated uncertainties surrounding average travel time.},

This paper presents a linear integer mathematical program for facilities to relocate dependents who need to be picked up in an optimal manner. The program is iterated with a traffic simulation model to obtain an optimal set of locations to which dependents are relocate on the basis of anticipated travel times. The entire methodology is applied to a sample network based on the Chicago Heights, Illinois, network with three safety time thresholds. The results indicated that the safe evacuation time threshold is important to the relocation strategy. When the) life evacuation time threshold is adequate, the relocation of dependent I increases the number of successful evacuees and increases the averaged travel speed of the network; it also significantly benefits those who rely on public transit to evacuate because new sites are closer to bus stops and waiting times to those stops are reduced. Application of the proposed methodology can assist local decision makers with taking effective measure, during no-notice evacuations, and the relocation sites could be part of local evacuation management plans.},

abstract = {Geographic Information Systems and Multi-Criteria Decision Making provide methods that may be leveraged to modernize the transportation corridor planning process. In current transportation planning decision making processes, more factors and attributes are being considered than in the past decades. Context sensitive design, smart growth, and sustainability have become key factors in the planning and design of modern transportation projects. However, most corridor planning projects follow the well-known routine of traditional, manual-oriented approaches. The traditional corridor planning project employs trustworthy methods for identifying alignment alternatives, accepted practices for constraint assessment, and standard field methods for quantifying environmental impacts, all of which are analyzed per NEPA guidelines. Therefore, the benefits possible through innovations in methods and data must be compelling in value as well as adequate to the goals and policies of transportation planning. This paper compares and quantifies the performance matching of auto-generated highway alignment alternatives derived from remote sensing and spatial information through automated GIS processing relative to the horizontal location of linear features of the final alignment selected for I-269 around Memphis, TN. The focus is on horizontal matching because the application is designed to avoid locations of sensitive environmental features as opposed to optimizing horizontal and vertical aspects of highway geometric design. The analysis of linear feature matching and performance evaluation was performed in two steps: by distance and by the area occupied by the corridor. The results show up to 95{\%} in similarity between the lengths of the corridors generated from automatic approach in comparison to the reference corridor. In the best case scenario we found 92{\%} matching between the 1000-foot right-of-way corridors of the innovative approach and the I-269. Furthermore, when smoothing is applied to the automatically-generated alignment it can be shown to almost exactly correspond to the human-derived line features. Linear correspondence analysis conducted at the end of the process suggests that automatically generated " cost-path " alignments, when adjusted for smoothed curves, closely approximate the design of a final roadway alignment.},

Midwest specialty grain and agricultural product exporters will be directly affected as all-water routes are improved and landbridge requirements reduced. The project analyzes data from a variety of sources, summarizes industry and public sector interviews, and examines the results of an industry survey to develop an understanding of changing transport decisions, energy consumption trends, and economic impacts that the expansion could cause in these commodity areas. Findings suggest that the Canal expansion may decrease transit times, incentivize export to Asia via Gulf Coast ports, promote greater containerization of grain, and increase the energy costs of transportation.},

abstract = {This research proposes the formation of rural demand response transportation peer groups based on the challenges transportation systems face from uncontrollable geographic and demographic factors. Using geographic and demographic factors that are outside of the control of the transportation systems establishes peer groups whose members share similar challenges in providing transportation services. By accounting for uncontrollable factors, the differences in performance among transportation systems are more directly due to variances in controllable factors.  The study area includes all 80 rural demand response transportation systems in North Carolina. Four factors are used to sort transportation systems into peer groups: range of service area elevation, highway density, population density, and the ratio of rural population to the total service area population. Scores of 1-5 are assigned to transportation systems for each factor to cluster transportation systems with similar characteristics. These scores are added to create a single score reflecting the geographic and demographic profile of each transportation system. Transportation systems are then sorted into peer groups based on their profile scores. This methodology classifies transportation systems into peer groups where every transportation system in the group has a similar opportunity to perform as well as the highest performing member of its group. By accounting for uncontrollable factors, the differences between the transportation systems are primarily due to controllable factors, allowing more effective performance comparisons among transportation systems.},

abstract = {1 2 This paper describes an analysis of the relationship between car ownership decisions and 3 decisions regarding residential, work and demographic events. Following recent literature on the 4 importance of critical events for mobility decisions, it focuses on the relationship between 5 specific events (e.g. childbirth and buying an extra car), rather than trying to explain the status of 6 car ownership from a set of stationary explanatory variables. In particular, it is hypothesized that 7 changes to the number of cars take place in response to stressors, resulting from changed 8 household needs or aspirations. The study includes a broad range of events that may influence 9 car ownership decisions. Apart from changes in working status, residential location and number 10 of drivers, it analyzes demographic events such as household formation and childbirth. Also, it 11 scrutinizes the temporal sequence in which chains of related events are most likely to occur. To 12 this end, data from a retrospective survey that records respondents' car ownership status, as well 13 as residential and household situation over the past 20 years are used. Simple correlation analysis 14 has been used to disentangle typical relationships at the current stage of the project. The 15 preliminary results suggest that strong and simultaneous relationships exist between car 16 ownership changes and household formation and dissolution processes. Childbirth and 17 residential relocation also invoke car ownership changes, which are however made in 18 anticipation of the event. Whereas childbirth is associated with an increasing number of cars, the 19 effect of residential relocation may go both ways. Job change increases the probability of car 20 ownership change in the year following the job change. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {The variation of household attributes such as income, travel distance, age, household member, and education for different residential areas may generate different market penetration rates for plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). Residential areas with higher PHEV ownership could increase peak electric demand locally and require utilities to upgrade the electric distribution infrastructure even though the capacity of the regional power grid is under-utilized. Estimating the future PHEV ownership distribution at the residential household level can help us understand the impact of PHEV fleet on power line congestion, transformer overload and other unforeseen problems at the local residential distribution network level. It can also help utilities manage the timing of recharging demand to maximize load factors and utilization of existing distribution resources. This paper presents a multi agent-based simulation framework for 1) modeling spatial distribution of PHEV ownership at local residential household level, 2) discovering “PHEV hot zones” where PHEV ownership may quickly increase in the near future, and 3) estimating the impacts of the increasing PHEV ownership on the local electric distribution network with different charging strategies. In this paper, we use Knox County, TN as a case study to show the simulation results of the agent-based model (ABM) framework. However, the framework can be easily applied to other local areas in the US.},

The study was intended to be a small-scale scoping exercise for the research team to benchmark more extensive efforts required to conduct future work for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). It was originally intended to be based on field collected data but the researchers encountered stiff resistance from terminal operators when requesting cost information as well as substantial inaccuracies with the contact and ownership information contained in the USACE Waterborne Commerce Statistics Center's (WCSC) trip data files and Port Series Reports; therefore, it was necessary to use the Barge Commodity Model (BCM) and the researchers' experience in order to develop transportation rates for most of the movements. The study found that no off-river origin or destination sites were associated with any of the movements. Barge shipment was found to be the least-cost alternative for every movement and in most cases (38 of the 40 movements) the least-cost and most practical land-only transportation alternative to barge was rail. Detailed rate sheets for each of the 40 commodity movements were developed. The study concluded that in future research efforts, it will be vital to include barge operators in the data collection effort in order to " ground truth " the BCM and the researchers' assumptions.},

abstract = {Modern roundabouts are more and more widely used at both urban and rural intersections in North America. The results of traffic operations analysis at roundabouts often depend on the software used and parameters adopted. For an evaluation of types of traffic analysis tools on roundabout operations, a macroscopic traffic analysis software (SIDRA) and a microscopic simulation package (VISSIM) were used to analyze a two-lane roundabout at the intersection of two rural arterial highways in Alberta, Canada. A full range of traffic flow rates and left-turn proportions was loaded to the roundabout to compare the two traffic analysis tools and to evaluate the effects of different factors on the roundabout performance. Average control delay and 95{\%} queue length were used as measures of effectiveness. Factors such as total traffic flow rate and left-turn vehicle proportion in each approach were analyzed to evaluate the sensitivity of the roundabout performance at different factor levels. The results showed that there was no significant difference for the delays predicted by VISSIM simulation and SIDRA at medium-to-high traffic flow rates and at all left-turn proportion levels. The 95{\%} queue length predicted by VISSIM was longer than those predicted by SIDRA. Good correlation existed between predicted delays and 95{\%} queue length from the two types of software. Both types of software needed parameter calibration for local traffic conditions. Roundabout capacity could also be estimated from a delay curve obtained from the method presented in this study.},

Guidance on where passing maneuvers are prohibited is given by the location of no-passing zones. Currently the processes for identifying no-passing zone locations can be daunting and many practices require work crews to operate in the roadway creating potentially hazardous situations. Due to these challenges, new alternatives need to be developed for the safe, accurate, and efficient location of no-passing zones on two-lane roadways. This paper addresses the use of Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates to evaluate sight distance along the vertical profile of roadways to provide an alternative automated no-passing zone location system. A system was developed that processes GPS coordinates and converts them into easting and northing values, smoothes inaccurate vertical elevation data, and evaluates roadway profiles for possible sight restrictions which indicate where no-passing zones should be located. The developed automated no-passing zone program shows potential in that it identifies the general location of no-passing zones when compared to existing roadway markings; however, as concluded by the researcher, further evaluation and refinement is needed before the program can be used effectively in the field for the safe, accurate, and efficient location of no-passing zones.},

abstract = {The study of respondent heterogeneity has been one of the main areas of research in the field of choice modelling in recent years. The emphasis has been on variations across respondents in the parameters used in the utility function while maintaining the assumption that the actual util-ity specification is generic across respondents. Recent work by David Hensher and colleagues has moved on from this by allowing for differences in the utility specification across respondents in terms of inclusion or otherwise of specific attributes, in the context of work looking at heteroge-neous information processing strategies. But the assumption that all respondents make use of the same choice paradigm remains, despite evidence in the literature that different paradigms work differently well on given datasets. In this paper, we go one step further by presenting a framework in which the model at the sample population level is a mixture of different individual models. We present applications from three case studies using two different datasets, showing mixtures between " standard " random utility maximisation models and lexicography based models, models with mul-tiple reference points, and random regret minimisation models. In each of the case studies, the behavioural mixing model obtains significant gains in fit over the base structure and further insights into behavioural patterns. There is also evidence that what is retrieved as taste heterogeneity in standard models may in fact be heterogeneity in decision rules.},

As such, livability programs explicitly link transportation, land use, the environment, and sustainability. This study explored how transportation and partner agencies should structure the performance measurement of metropolitan livability programs. Existing research suggested that a good performance measurement approach would help an agency achieve the objectives of the program and its customers by influencing agency and stakeholder decisions and actions. An analysis of the performance measurement approaches used by five mature metropolitan livability programs was provided. Four measurement types were identified by the agencies as particularly useful in supporting program decisions: delivery of project commitments (did the program get what was funded?), percentage of the region's development that occurs in targeted development areas (is the program developing where it wants to develop?), leveraged funding (did the program close the financing gap?), and transportation access factors such as induced ridership, cost per induced rider, and bicycle and pedestrian access (did the program achieve a transportation-land use link?). Results of the analysis suggested that good performance measurement in livability programs would require efficient, decision-oriented approaches that would reflect the full range of the objectives of the program and its customers, unconstrained by agency structure. Good performance measurement would require a balanced view across all livability objectives, incorporating both the volume and nature of development, affordability, and land value, and quantifiable and subjective goals.},

The automated fare collection (AFC) system, implemented 25 1994{\~{}}97, features lessons learned from field trials of prototypes specifically designed to limit 26 fare abuse. Subway crime has decreased 68{\%} since 2000, and annual average subway evasion 27 rate remains low at approximately 1.3{\%}. Today, the Authority measures fare evasion with 28 independent silent observers using stratified random sampling techniques, classifying passenger 29 entries into 19 categories. Evasion rate peaks at 3pm due to students dismissal, otherwise hovers 30 around 0.9{\%} peak, 1.9{\%} off-peak. Busy times and locations have higher evasions per hour but 31 lower evasions per passenger. More evasions occur in lower-income neighbourhoods. Staff 32 presence apparently doesn't reduce evasions. Results are released to the press on request, 33 promoting transparency and accountability. To combat evasion, NYCT increased fines from {\$}60 34 to {\$}100 in 2008. Police issued 68,000 summonses and made 19,000 evasion arrests in 2009. 35 Arrests are a more effective deterrent than summonses; the proportion of arrests versus 36 summonses increased in 2010. Video monitoring equipment is used to identify and apprehend 37 chronic fare abusers, particularly " swipers " who sell subway entries by abusing unlimited fare 38 media. 39 40 41 Note: Photos embedded in this document are not publication-resolution.

abstract = {Microscopic simulators embed numerous traffic models that make them detailed and realistic tools appropriate to perform scenario-based or sensitivity analysis. This realism leads to nonlinear objective functions with no available closed form and containing potentially several local minima. As nonlinear, stochastic and evaluation-expensive models, their integration within an optimization framework remains a difficult and challenging task. We believe that in order to perform both fast and reliable simulation-based optimization for congested networks, information from the simulation tool should be combined with information from a network model that analytically captures the structure of the underlying problem. This paper presents a surrogate that combines the information from a calibrated microscopic traffic simulation model of the Lausanne city center with an analytical queueing network model that resorts to finite capacity queueing theory to capture the key traffic dynamics and the underlying network structure, e.g. how upstream and downstream queues interact, how this interaction is linked to network congestion. We integrate this surrogate within a derivative-free (DF) trust region optimization framework. The framework is illustrated by solving a fixed-time signal control problem for a subnetwork of the city of Lausanne. The performance of the derived plans is compared to that of other methods, including an existing plan for the city of Lausanne.},

abstract = {18 Fungibility is the property of a good or a commodity whose individual units are capable of mutual 19 substitution. This paper describes the results of a discrete choice experiment (DCE) designed to test 20 the fungibility and consistency of monetary valuations in transport. Governments around the world 21 use monetised benefit values to undertake project appraisal and cost-benefit analysis. However, 22 because different types of benefits are monetised (e.g., travel time savings, preventing statistical 23 fatalities, reliability, etc.) the question naturally arises as to whether they are consistent. That is, 24 whether a " dollar is a dollar " as welfare economics requires, or whether money spent in one area 25 brings greater utility than money spent in another. The view that money is not fungible is explained 26 in behavioural economics through theories of framing and mental accounting. From a nationally 27 representative sample, we elicit direct values for the three pairwise trade-offs between travel time, 28 travel cost, and safety. We then show that in the context of our analysis, any trade-offs inferred on 29 the basis of other trade-offs, as is common practice (e.g. inferring a safety vs time trade-off on the 30 basis of monetary valuations for time and money), produces biased results, suggesting that the 31 assumption of fungibility doesn't hold. Specifically, we find that time is valued more highly when 32 valued directly by cost than when traded with safety, and the reverse is true for safety. We interpret 33 these findings in terms of framing and mental accounts, and describe implications for future 34 research. 35},

abstract = {The San FranciscoOakland Bay Bridge in California is one of the most heavily traveled corridors in the United States. A study on congestion pricing was performed to address traffic congestion in this corridor. Existing toll plaza counts and travel time data were used in the estimation of traffic demand by applying queuing analysis. Regression analysis was conducted to estimate the number of drivers who would shift to other modes in response to the congestion pricing. Five congestion pricing alternatives were examined. The bigger the price differential between peak and nonpeak toll, the more delays, queue length, and duration of congestion were reduced. Of the five alternatives, the one with a {\$}2.00 price differential between peak and nonpeak toll was selected and implemented on July 1, 2010. This adopted congestion pricing strategy was to reduce the traffic demand by 4.2 and 5.0 per cent in the a.m. and p.m. peak periods, respectively. The congestion pricing was to reduce significant delays (24 to 30 per cent) by removing only a fraction of the vehicles (4.2 to 5.0 per cent) from the congested Bay Bridge. A preliminary analysis comparing traffic counts between July and September 2009 and July and September 2010 found that, in July, traffic volume decreased by 8.4 and 7.3 per cent during the a.m. and p.m. peak periods, respectively. In September, traffic volume decreased by 6.0 and 3.9 per cent during the a.m. and p.m. peak periods, respectively.

abstract = {The introduction of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), typically involving the use of exclusive bus lanes and related bus priority measures, is increasingly advocated as a flexible and cost-effective way of improving the attractiveness of public transit in congested urban areas by reducing travel times and variability. These schemes typically involve the reallocation of road space for exclusive use by buses, presenting commuters with potentially competing incentives: buses on BRT routes can run faster and more efficiently than buses running in general traffic, potentially attracting commuters to public transit and reducing congestion through modal shift from cars. However, a secondary impact may also exist; remaining car users may be presented with less congested road space, improving their journey times and simultaneously acting as an incentive for some bus-users to revert to the car. To investigate the potential for these primary and secondary impacts, we develop a prototype agent-based model to investigate the nature of these interactions and how they play out into system-wide patterns of modal share and travel times. The model allows us to test the effects of multiple assumptions about the behaviors of individual agents as they respond to different incentives introduced by BRT policy changes, such as the implementation of exclusive bus lanes, increased bus frequency, pre-boarding ticket machines and express stops, separately and together. We find that, under our assumptions, these policies can result in significant improvements in terms of individual journey times, modal shift, and length of rush hour. We see that the addition of an exclusive bus lane results in significant improvements for both car users and bus riders. Informed with appropriate empirical data relating to the behavior of individual agents, the geography and the specific policy interventions, the model has the potential to aid policymakers in examining the effectiveness of different BRT schemes, applied to broader environments. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

The network nodes 3 consisted of commercially-available Dash Express navigation units, backed by the Dash service 4 (discontinued as of 6/30/2010). The probe units capture relevant traffic information, offload 5 processing from the server without sacrificing accuracy, and maintain privacy for the end users. 6 Accuracy tests show that, where coverage is sufficient, probe data errors rates are less 7 than 10{\%}, as opposed to 15-30{\%} for competing technologies. Additional data and processing 8 can further lower the error rate, whereas competitors will require significant investment to 9 improve their numbers. 10 On a given road segment, 95{\%} coverage requires 0.5{\%} to 1{\%} penetration, depending on 11 the flow rate, as verified experimentally. This works out to 36 traffic probes per hour for a wide 12 range of flows. For an entire metro area, the critical mass is a function of the size of the metro 13 and concentration of traffic on the highway network. For the San Francisco Bay area, critical 14 mass for rush hour on major highways is about 6000 vehicles. 15 Upon reaching critical mass, probe data is useful for many other applications, such as 16 map refinement, commuter web sites, routing, and location-based services such as group 17 coordination and advertising.

With refinement of the general costs of travel, the choice of the links to be privatized, and the enabling policies, a more efficient roadway usage can be achieved. The results from this test network show that (a) in some cases a monopoly ownership performs better than an oligopoly one and (b) privatizing arterials (secondary roads) as well as freeways (primary roads) can lead to lower total costs than privatizing only freeways.

The database includes birdstrikes recorded in the U.S. from 1990 to the present. 7 There is no database of pre-1990 birdstrikes. In this paper, a model is fit to the number of 8 birdstrikes recorded in Utah between 1990 and 2009. The model is then used to estimate the 9 number of birdstrikes occurring in Utah between 1968 and 1989. The model is based on 10 Smeed's Law, which was originally developed to estimate highway fatalities, within a given 11 region, as a function of population and the number of registered vehicles. A variation on 12 Smeed's Law is used to estimate the number of birdstrikes as a function of aircraft departures 13 and bird populations. The model development used bird populations from 15 species that were 14 involved in 70{\%} of all birdstrikes (in which the species was known). (In 50{\%} of all Utah 15 birdstrikes, the species was unknown). A total of 1,265 birdstrikes were recorded in Utah 16 between 1990 and 2009; 443 of these involved the 15 species. The modified Smeed model 17 estimated the 1990 to 2009 birdstrikes to within 11{\%} of the actual value. The model estimated 18 that 155 birdstrikes occurred between 1968 and 1989. There was an eightfold increase in 19 birdstrikes from the 1970s-1980s to the 1990s-2000s, and a substantial increase from 1968 to 20 2009. The indication is that birdstrikes are a growing hazard in Utah. Future work might 21 consider combing aircraft incident data for birdstrikes from 1968 to 1989, in an attempt to 22 validate the model's estimates. A model with additional variables may be used to predict the 23 impact of birdstrike interventions.

abstract = {Transportation agencies are facing a major exodus of experienced workers. The retirement of these workers will mean the loss not only of those who do the business and produce the products and services of the agency, but also a major loss in institutional knowledge. This workforce challenge is great under any circumstances, but in those parts of agencies with small, specialized staffs, it is especially trying. It is even more challenging in the current economic and political climate of budget cuts and smaller government. Agency budgets have been cut to the point of offering little room for discretionary spending for training and staffing has been reduced to the point were little time is available to devote to knowledge management activities to better capture and share existing knowledge. The only viable solutions for knowledge management must be low-­‐cost, and have little impact on staff workloads. This paper outlines the efforts at the Wisconsin Department of Transportation to use low-­‐cost knowledge management tools to help meet this challenge.},

abstract = {The transportation community is well aware of the universal problem of (a) infrastructure investment needs, associated funding requirements and the need for more flexible financing approaches, and (b) public uncertainty over the efficacy of investing in transportation as opposed to other uses of their money. These are long-standing issues regardless of economic cycles, and they relate to both the state of infrastructure needs, shifting economic and demographic patterns, and public desires for public processes that are fair, equitable, efficient and transparent. Recognizing these challenges, the Kansas Department of Transportation embarked on a multi-year experiment to reinvent transportation planning and project selection processes in an effort to achieve greater support through stakeholder consultation, collaboration, and adoption of improved and expanded methods for ranking and selecting projects that appeal to broader issues of public concern (such as job creation) instead of merely engineering measures of need. Seven years of experimentation in consultation, collaboration and revising processes provides many lessons for the transportation community which may be applicable in whole or in part for other state or regional transportation agencies. This paper critically examines the methods and tools used by KDOT, including surveys, road rallies, collaborative planning efforts, social media outreach, economic impact analysis and expanded project selection processes. Taken together, this work has produced a positive outcome with the Kansas Legislature having recently funded a new 10-year transportation improvement program.},

Abstract 46 In April 2010, the seismic activity of Eyjafjallajokull, which had begun at the end of 2009, increased in intensity 47 and airspace all over Europe was closed—which was unprecedented—due to the presence of volcanic ash in the 48 upper atmosphere from the eruption of this Icelandic volcano. This air traffic disruption took place in response 49 to concerns that ash ejected by the volcano would damage aircraft engines. The International Air Transport 50 Association (IATA) estimated that the airline industry worldwide lost 148 million euros a day during the 51 disruption. The closure of the airspace left five million travellers stranded around the world. 52 53 This paper consists of three parts. First, it contains an analysis of the main effects of the volcano ash cloud on air 54 transportation and on the overall European transport system. Based on the study of the airline companies and the 55 behaviour of stranded passengers during the crisis, greater use of the European high-speed rail network, 56 integrated with the network of airports, is suggested as one of the best ways to increase reliability of the 57 transport system in case of extraordinary events. Second, the evolution of the relationship between airplane 58 operators and high-speed rail administrations is discussed, in order to clarify the concepts of modal competence, 59 cooperation, and integration. As further eruptions from the same Icelandic volcano are likely, the present grid 60 and interoperability of the European high-speed network are discussed. Third, we offer some recommendations 61 and proposals to minimize the effects of future air traffic disruptions on a similar scale. 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88},

abstract = {Traffic signal coordination is not only an effective traffic flow operational strategy to smooth the traffic in urban areas but is also considered a potentially effective means to reduce vehicle emissions. Nevertheless, when traffic flow speed decreases, the effectiveness of using traffic signal coordination to reduce emissions may be substantially weakened. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of signal coordination in reducing vehicle emissions during peak versus nonpeak hours, two speed scenarios. The operating mode binning approach is used as a statistical technique to calculate emission rates, and the difference in emissions is adopted as the measure of effectiveness in the study. Data used in the study include Global Positioning System data and emission data collected from real-world tests. It was found from the study that coordinated signal control could reduce vehicle emissions in the following order (most to least reduction): oxides of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide. However, its effectiveness would be impaired during peak hours when the speed was decreased. Meanwhile, the test shows that the effectiveness will be affected by driver behavior. Either low average speed or intentionally slow driving will weaken the effectiveness of coordinated control in reducing vehicle emissions. The research in this paper is a pilot study and the same methodology will be used to conduct a more thorough study.},

Also, technical and/or equipment problems may lead to incomplete or intermittent weigh-in-motion 3 (WIM) data. To address these issues, DOTs have begun to investigate WIM data sampling procedures, focusing on 4 axle load distribution factors (ALDFs) and the effectiveness of the sampling procedures for estimating the ALDF 5 accurately. This paper proposes sampling schemes using two dimensions: frequency (annual, semiannual, quarterly, 6 and monthly) and duration (two consecutive weekdays and five consecutive weekdays). The effectiveness of the 7 sampling schemes is evaluated using the sum of the relative error (SRE) in estimating the ALDF derived from 8 sampled WIM data compared to ALDF derived from annual WIM data. In addition, the paper investigates the 9 relationship between data sampling and seasonal variations for traffic data in circumstances where annual WIM data 10 are not available. The three regions in North Carolina, which have different climatic characteristics, are studied for 11 this purpose. Findings show that a direct correlation between seasonal variations and the accuracy of the sampling 12 schemes exists for truck traffic. When truck traffic is fairly stable, the annual sampling schemes for two or five 13 consecutive weekdays generate encouraging results. In locations with high seasonal variability, semiannual and 14 quarterly sampling schemes are required to capture the seasonal variations in terms of the axle load distribution. 15 The results of this paper will provide guidance to DOTs in situations where annual WIM data that are incomplete or 16 intermittent and must be sampled in order to produce ALDF inputs for the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design 17 Guide (MEPDG). 18 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal. 3 Sayyady et al.},

abstract = {By far the most popular method to account for dependencies in the transportation network analysis literature is the use of the multivariate normal (MVN) distribution. While in certain cases there is some theoretical underpinning for the MVN assumption, in others there is none. This can lead to misleading results: results do not only depend on whether dependence is modeled, but also how dependence is modeled. When assuming the MVN distribution, one is limiting oneself to a specific set of dependency structures, which can substantially limit validity of results. In this paper an existing, more flexible, correlation-based approach (where just marginal distributions and their correlations are specified) is proposed, and it is demonstrated that, in simulation studies, such an approach is a generalization of the MVN assumption. The need for such generalization is particularly critical in the transportation network modeling literature, where oftentimes there exists no or insufficient data to estimate probability distributions, so that sensitivity analyses assuming different dependence structures could be extremely valuable. However, the proposed method has its own drawbacks. For example, it is again not able to exhaust all possible dependence forms and it relies on some not-so-known properties of the correlation coefficient.},

Data from automatic vehicle locations and automatic passenger counting, as well as outputs from a travel forecasting model, were used in presenting a methodology to predict the mean and the SD of travel times for proposed transit routes. Models were generated in two ways. First, mean and SD of travel time were estimated by regressing observed values against roadway and operational characteristics. The SD was estimated between origins and destinations by considering the SDs of individual segments and the correlation between segments. Advantages and disadvantages of these two methods were evaluated. The models were calibrated and validated with automatic vehicle location data from the bus system serving the Regional Municipality of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada.},

abstract = {While it is increasingly popular to broadcast information regarding environmental impact, little is known regarding the effects that this information has on human behavior. This research aims to provide insight into whether, and to what extent, presenting environmental attributes of transport alternatives influences individual transport decisions. We designed and conducted three experiments in which subjects (UC Berkeley undergraduates) were presented with hypothetical scenarios of transport decisions, including auto purchase choice, mode choice, and route choice. We analyzed their decisions via a choice model to determine how they value reducing their emissions relative to other attributes. We found that our subjects are willing to adjust their behavior to reduce emissions, exhibiting an average willingness to pay for emissions reduction, or value of green (VoG), of 15 cents per pound of CO2 saved. Despite concern that people cannot meaningfully process quantities of CO2, we found evidence to the contrary in our subject pool in that the estimated VoG was consistent across context (the wide range of transport decisions that we presented) and presentation (e.g., whether the information was presented in tons or pounds, or whether a social reference point of the emissions of an average person was provided). We also found significant heterogeneity in VoG, with most of the respondents valuing green somewhere between 0 and 70 cents per pound and with women, on average, willing to pay 7 cents more per saved pound than men. While the findings are encouraging, further work is required to determine whether they hold outside of a lab environment and with a more representative pool of subjects.},

Knowledge of IPMC is central to dynamic transportation modeling, for instance, to compute system-optimal network performance, to solve a dynamic origin-destination (O-D) estimation problem, and to analyze equity issues for travelers with different origins and destinations. This paper proposes a method of approximating IPMC for general networks, in which a cell transmission model-based kinematic wave model is used to model traffic dynamics. By tracing the changes in the cumulative flow curves of the bottleneck links on which queues form during dynamic network loading, an approximation method is developed to obtain the IPMC for the cases of merge junctions, diverge junctions, and general junctions. This method was applied to compute the total path marginal cost in a network. The results showed that vehicles at the beginning of the congestion duration had significantly larger marginal travel costs than other vehicles. The method was then applied to solve a dynamic O-D estimation problem with partial link-flow counts and historical O-D trip tables. With the incorporation of IPMC into the estimation procedure, both the O-D demands and the observed path travel times were successfully reproduced.},

Findings indicate that TMPs pre-activities were effective in reducing the traffic 9 demand and shifting vehicular demand to other modes of transportation. Additionally, the paper 10 discusses how some of the activities coordinated by TMPs during the closure effectively reduced 11 vehicular delay.

INTRODUCTION 15 The objective of this paper is to document how the California Department of Transportation, 16 Caltrans (CT) orchestrated in coordination with regional stakeholders during Labor Day 17 Weekend (LDW) 2009, an extended complete segment closure of a major freeway corridor (I-18 80), the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge (SFOBB): Labor Day is the first Monday of 19 September and is a U.S. official holiday and LDW refers to the weekend preceding the Labor 20 Day. 21 The SFOBB (see Figure 1) is a section of I-80 freeway bridging the traffic between 22 Oakland and San Francisco (S.F.). The SFOBB is a major corridor in the region and it serves 23 more than 260,000 vehicles daily. The upper deck of the bridge services the westbound traffic 24 while the lower deck is being used for the eastbound traffic. The traffic going from node (see 25 Figure 1) 3 to 4, 4 to S.F., Oakland to S.F., 5 to 6 and 7 to 8 direction requires toll payment 26 whereas traveling between others nodes does not. 27 During the Loma-Prieta earthquake in 1989, a 250-ton section of the upper deck of the 28 SFOBB collapsed to the lower deck and the bridge had to be closed for a month. This event 29 triggered intense discussion and in depth analysis of whether the existing structure-which is built 30 in 1935 could withstand the next major earthquake. The outcome of such efforts subsequently 31 led to the decisions of retrofitting in place and/or retrofitting by replacement methods, which 32 included the eastern and western sections and approaches of the SFOBB. 33 34},

abstract = {This research investigated the influences of socioeconomic characteristics of individual travelers and of the environments where the travelers live and shop on choice of travel mode for grocery shopping. The data on travel for grocery shopping came from 2,001 respondents to the 2009 Seattle Obesity Study survey in King County, Washington. Eighty-eight percent of the respondent; drove to their grocery stores, whereas 12{\%} used transit or taxis, walked, biked, or carpooled. The addresses of 1,994 homes and 1,901 primary grocery stores used by respondents were geographically coded. The characteristics of built environments in the neighborhoods around homes and grocery stores and the distances between those homes and stores were measured in a geographic information system. Four binary logistic models estimated the impact of individual socioeconomic characteristics, distance, and built environments around homes and grocery stores on the travel mode used for grocery shopping. Fourteen variables were significantly related to mode choice. The strongest predictors of driving to the grocery store were more cars per adult household member, more adults per household, living in a single-family house, longer distances between homes and grocery stores (both the stores used and the nearest stores), and more at-ground parking around the grocery store used. Higher street density, more quick-service restaurants around homes, and more nonchain grocery stores near the primary grocery store used were related to not driving. Results suggested that reductions of distances between homes and grocery stores, clustering of grocery stores and other food establishments, and reductions in the amount of the parking around them could lead to less driving for grocery shopping.},

abstract = {In urban corridor performance evaluation, saturation flow rate (SFR) is regarded as one of the key parameters in estimating the capacity and delay at signalized intersections. In Japan, where vehicles travel on the left side of the road, the SFRs of shared left-turn lane usually show comparable fluctuation, due to different departure characteristics of through and left turning vehicles as well as complicated interactions with pedestrians and bicycles. Therefore, the reliability of lane group capacity, even intersection capacity would be potentially affected. For a better evaluation of corridor performance, this study investigates stochastic SFRs starting from shared left-turn lane and empirically explores its implications. Results show that efficient utilization of shared lane by through traffic can significantly improve SFRs. At lower or higher pedestrian-bicycle volumes, SFRs are relatively reliable. While at middle levels of pedestrian demands, more random arrivals and interactions between pedestrians and vehicles lead to rather unstable SFR fluctuation. Moreover, it is found that identical SFR values can be achieved under different turning proportions and pedestrian volumes. In other words, single SFR value cannot solely determine one traffic state in shared lane. For the shared lane with a larger left turning radius, its SFRs display a stable trend since more turning vehicles can be stored within turning bays, thus a smaller chance of total lane blockage and a bigger chance of achieving higher SFRs. A comparative analysis of observed SFRs and HCM estimations indicate HCM usually overestimates the SFRs in shared left-turn lane in Japan.},

abstract = {This paper describes research to explore the habitual and repetitive patterns of travel behaviour for improving travel demand modelling. The data used in this research are from two Australian panels from which GPS data were collected. The trips recorded by the GPS were initially classified into tours. A tour classification was then applied that grouped the tours into one of twelve tour types and the number of repetitions of each tour type within the time period of data collection were then determined. Having determined how often a particular tour type was repeated over a week or longer, the tours were then described in terms of certain tour characteristics as the initial means to search for identical patterns of travel from one day to the next. To determine if a particular tour type was repeated more or less identically on more than one occasion, the tour type repetitions were described by a coefficient of variation for each of tour travel time, tour distance, tour activity time, and total duration (time) of the tour. From this it was determined that there is relatively little repetition of tours from one day to the next, raising serious questions about the assumptions of repetitiveness that underlie almost all travel demand models.},

abstract = {1 2 ABSTRACT 3 Traffic stream models provide relationships among the three basic macroscopic traffic stream 4 variables namely traffic speed, volume and density. Traffic stream models are the basic building 5 blocks of traffic flow modeling, design of road systems and traffic management systems. A 6 number of research papers are available proposing different traffic stream models under 7 homogeneous traffic conditions. These models are based on homogeneous traffic conditions and 8 may not be directly suitable for the Indian traffic condition, which is heterogeneous and less lane 9 disciplined in nature. Not much research has been done on this important aspect so far in India. 10 The present study is an attempt to develop a traffic stream model suitable for the heterogeneous 11 traffic flow condition, such as the one existing in India, taking Chennai as a case study. Traffic 12 data for the present study were collected using videographic technique. Flow, speed and 13 occupancy were manually extracted from collected videos and density estimated using the 14 relation connecting occupancy and density. All the traffic variables were measured without 15 considering the traffic lanes in order to take in to account the lack of lane discipline. The 16 heterogeneity was incorporated by converting the data into standard Passenger Car Unit (PCU) 17 equivalent values. An optimal non-linear speed-density relationship which minimizes the sum of 18 squares of residuals using a conventional optimization algorithm based on the Trust Region 19 Method was developed. Using this relation and the fundamental equation connecting speed, flow 20 and density, the relationships between speed-flow and flow-density were derived. 21 22 INTRODUCTION 23 Traffic flow modeling is defined as the process of obtaining a mathematical description of the 24 traffic system for characterizing and predicting the behavior of the same. Traffic stream models 25 are the basic building blocks of many of the traffic flow models, and provide relationships 26 among the three basic macroscopic traffic stream variables namely traffic speed, volume and 27 density. 28 A knowledge of traffic flow variables and their interrelationships and ways to model 29 traffic are essential in the planning, design and operation of transportation systems. A number of 30 research papers were published proposing different traffic stream models. Some of them began 31 with mathematical models and some others proposed purely empirical models without much 32 attempts towards generalization (1). However, as emphasized in (1), the empirical models 33 developed depend on the measurement method used to obtain the data and the location at which 34 the measurements were carried out. Thus, a traffic stream model developed for homogeneous 35 traffic conditions may not be suitable for heterogeneous traffic conditions. As of now, a majority 36 of the reported studies on traffic stream models have been developed for homogeneous traffic 37 conditions and they may not be directly suitable for heterogeneous traffic conditions such as the 38 one existing in India. Only very limited studies have been reported from India in this respect and 39 are mostly limited to the speed volume relation alone because of the difficulty in measuring 40 density (2). The present study is an attempt to develop an optimal traffic stream model suitable 41 for heterogeneous traffic flow conditions, taking the metropolitan city of Chennai, India, as a 42 case study. 43 As discussed already, one of the main challenges involved in developing traffic stream 44 models is the need for accurate measurement of the variables involved, especially the space 45 mean speed and the density. In recent times, with the introduction of many of the automated 46},

Using aggregate estimation of ARTEMIS as a standard reference, a numerical optimization scheme on the basis of a stochastic gradient approximation algorithm is applied to find optimal parameters for the dynamic emission model. The calibrated model has been validated on several road networks with traffic states generated by the same simulation model. The results show that with proper formulation of the optimization objective function the estimated dynamic emission model can reasonably capture the trends of dynamic emission patterns of traffic fleets.},

abstract = {This paper examines the optimization of an intermodal system with freight transfers at a single hub by determining when departures should be scheduled on outbound routes, given information about the probabilistic arrivals of vehicles on inbound routes. The intermodal system is modeled with stochastic programming, and the schedule of outbound vehicles is optimized with a genetic algorithm. The model is designed to minimize the expected total cost of operating an intermodal system while considering all capacity constraints arising in the real world. This model allows the system performance to be computed numerically, without the approximations of alternative methods such as simulation. Although the model can be applied to the most general case, the model seems to be especially suitable for analyzing systems with a relatively small number of arrivals on inbound routes. In particular, the model can be successfully applied to situations where statistical or queuing analyses are not applicable because of the small number of events (vehicle arrivals). The authors specifically analyze an intermodal system consisting of multiple inbound truck routes and multiple outbound airline routes. However, the mathematical model developed in this paper is applicable to other combinations of transportation modes.},

abstract = {Recent advances in activity-based travel modeling and integrated land use and transportation modeling have significantly advanced the understanding of and the capacity to model location choices and travel behavior more realistically. These advances, however, come with greater data requirements, and the risk and the substantial cost involved with adoption of these models have slowed their move to operational use. The purpose of this research was twofold. First, the study addressed one aspect of an incremental approach that more carefully balanced the risks and benefits of moving operational models in new directions: replacement of the choice model of home-based work destination in the four-step travel model system with a pair of choice models at the level of the individual worker. The new choice models were implemented as long-term choices in the linked land use model system. Second, the models were used to provide a way to derive matches between workers and their workplace with commonly available data. These matches complemented synthetic populations and provided a key input for activity-based travel models. The models predicted whether a worker would choose to work at home on a long-term basis; if he or she did not, an out-of-home job was chosen. These models linked an individual worker to a specific job at a workplace and therefore directly predicted commuting patterns. The paper presents the model specifications, estimation results, and results of validation of the models against observed commuting data from the Census Transportation Planning Package. The model reproduced observed commuting flows well, and computational performance was fast, even though the model operated at the level of the individual worker and job.},

abstract = {This study investigates the relationship between various weather conditions and bicycle usage in an urban environment, as well as the hourly, weekly, seasonal and yearly temporal bicycle trends. For this purpose, this research uses a unique cyclist ridership dataset collected on five counters installed on primarily utilitarian bike facilities in the City of Montreal. Absolute and relative models are used to analyze the direct and lagged effects of both weather variables and extreme weather conditions on hourly ridership. The results show that precipitation, temperature and humidity, both separately and combined, have significant effects on bicycle ridership. After controlling for other factors, when temperature doubles, a 43-50{\%} increase in ridership is expected; however, the effect of temperature drops off when it is {\textgreater} 28°C and humidity is {\textgreater} 60{\%}. The results also show the direct and lagged effects of precipitation. Bicycle volumes in a given hour are significantly affected not only by the presence of rain in the same hour, but also by the presence of rain in the morning and/or during the previous three hours. For instance, when rain is present in the three previous hours, ridership goes down by 26-36{\%} in the current hour. In addition, when raining in the morning, but not in the afternoon, cyclist volumes go down by roughly 15{\%}. The results show that daily bicycle volumes are between 65 to 89{\%} lower on weekend days than on Monday, which is the weekday with lowest ridership, confirming that the analyzed paths are primarily utilitarian. Also, bicycle volumes peak in the summer months, with an additional ridership of 32-39{\%} with respect to April. Finally, and perhaps most significantly, the results show that bicycle volumes have increased by about 20-27{\%} in 2009 and 35-40{\%} in 2010 with respect to 2008 in the cycling facilities under analysis.},

abstract = {The urban heat island effect is the phenomenon where developed areas tend to be warmer than their surrounding countryside. Excessively warm conditions can worsen ground-level ozone air pollution problems as ozone concentrations are dependent on levels of photochemical reactivity affected by temperature. Among the causes of heat islands are the thermal properties of materials used in urban areas, including those used for transportation, such as pavement. Heat island mitigation strategies, including cool pavement technologies and shading of pavement, among others, represent opportunities to tackle ground-level ozone pollution problems through temperature. Two mitigation scenarios for the Fresno, California region, an area heavily impacted by poor ozone conditions, indicate that heat island mitigation strategies can bring modest ozone benefits. Conservative estimates modeled using the Mitigation Impact Screening Tool shows that the two mitigation scenarios could reduce temperature by 0.8 degrees Fahrenheit to 5.7 degrees Fahrenheit and yield 3 to 12 percent reductions in the typical excess of ozone in Fresno over California state ambient air quality standards. Cool roofs provide relatively more benefit in the two scenarios, as does increase vegetation, including vegetation that shades land occupied for transportation uses. Cool pavements provide some benefit, with greater future benefit possible with further developments in technology.},

abstract = {Every individual traveler makes route choices in an inherently uncertain environment, due to random disruptions to the traffic system such as incidents and bad weather, and random behavior of his/her fellow travelers. The premise underlying the development of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) that better-informed travelers make better route choices both at the individual and system levels should not be taken as granted but rigorously tested. This paper studies two types of information, namely en route real-time information on the occurrence of an incident and ex post information on foregone payoffs (FPs), i.e., travel times on non-chosen routes. Data were collected from an interactive experiment, where human subjects made multiple rounds of route choices in a hypothetical network subject to random capacity reductions, and travel times were determined by performance functions of route flows from the previous round. Preliminary results and bootstrap statistical tests are presented. It is indicated that en route real-time information increases the network¡¦s travel time saving and reliability under the specific setting of the experiment, yet FP information has the opposite impact. The most efficient information structure in terms of travel time saving is a combination of real-time information and no FP information. Furthermore, the availability of real-time information at downstream nodes encourages participants¡¦ strategic behavior at the origin. Last but not least, FP information seems to increase risk-seeking behavior, and it encourages route switching without real-time information, but suppresses them with real-time information. These results are potentially valuable for policy evaluations regarding further developments of ATIS.},

abstract = {1 Visual-based traffic behavior analysis has attracted much attention in the field of 2 intelligence transportation. Based on object trajectories data extracted by video 3 tracking, motion patterns could be learnt automatically, which is an effective approach 4 for modeling and analyzing traffic behavior. Most current methods for motion pattern 5 learning simply depend on one-sided characteristics of object trajectories which are 6 not adaptable to the multiplicity and complexity of traffic activities. In this paper, we 7 present a multi-level motion pattern learning approach for traffic behavior analysis, 8 which is under taking into account spatial characteristic, direction characteristic and 9 type characteristic of trajectories. At spatial-level, improved Hausdorff distance 10 measurement is applied to construct spatial similarity matrix of trajectories collected 11 and spectral clustering is used to realize spatial pattern learning. At direction-level, 12 start points and end points of trajectories are fitted by 2-D GMM model to extract the 13 distribution of entry and exit zones. Then, the direction pattern is obtained from the 14 regional centers of the pairwise distribution zones. At type-level, the type pattern is 15 acquired by K-means clustering algorithm with considering multiple classification 16 features of trajectories. Based on the learned multi-level motion patterns, abnormal 17 behavior detection algorithms are further developed by pattern matching. Finally, our 18 approach is tested with several video sequences from real-world traffic scenarios. 19 Experimental results show good performances of learning motion patterns.

Feng, et al. 1 Abstract. 1 Uncertain travel times and passenger demand preclude schedule adherence and headway uniformity. This 2 study focuses on the development of tools to visualize the performance of TriMet's Route 15 which 3 experiences difficulties in terms of schedule adherence and headway regularity. TriMet is the transit 4 provider in the Portland metropolitan region and its Bus Dispatch System (BDS) has been collecting and 5 archiving automated vehicle locator (AVL) and automatic passenger counter (APC) data since 1997. The 6 availability of this rich AVL/APC archived data allows for new data visualization techniques for route-7 level operations and performance monitoring. This research provides novel ways to summarize and 8 visualize vast amounts of bus route operations data in an insightful and intuitive manner: 1) a route/stop 9 level visualization performance measure framework using color contour diagrams and 2) a dynamic 10 interactive bus monitoring visualization framework based on a Google Maps platform. Visualizations 11 proposed in this study can aid transit agency managers and operators to identify operational problems, 12 better understand how such problems propagate spatially and temporally across routes.},

abstract = {Data and analysis of bicycle parking are necessary to evaluate facility designs and parking plans and for analysis of bicycle use more generally. Data and analysis of bicycle parking inform efforts to promote bicycle use and provide direction for policy makers and planners. However, there is a lack of research and data related to bicycle parking, and no standardized methodology exists for data collection. Measures such as duration and turnover have long been identified with vehicular parking studies, but these measures have not been standardized in the literature related to bicycle parking. This paper proposes a methodology for collecting detailed bicycle parking data. This methodology uses digital photography to capture parking data, including arrival and departure times, parking durations, and turnover rates. A trial data collection suggested ways in which the data could be used to answer specific research questions. In addition, the feasibility of the proposed methodology was evaluated, and the work effort needed to perform the collection and analysis was quantified. The methodology appeared to be useful for further academic research related to bicycle parking and had potential to provide valuable information for universities and public transportation agencies as they planned for, monitored, or improved bicycle parking facilities.},

abstract = {This paper explores several reliability and vulnerability measures for transportation networks and proposes three models for optimal resource allocation for transportation network design or defense to minimize the disruption caused by both random and targeted attacks. The common day-to-day disturbances with less severe consequences are referred to as random attacks, but targeted attacks include both coordinated terrorist strikes and large-scale natural disasters. For random attacks, the major concern would be the reliability of the total system travel time. A robust discrete network design problem is formulated to take into account random attacks in the planning stage. The transport capacity or the unsatisfied demand would be critical in case of emergency evacuation, and law enforcement forces could be deployed to prevent malicious attacks in the first place or to ensure a smooth evacuation operation. The proposed models feature an intrinsic trilevel game structure of the network users, the attacker, and the defender (planner). By exploring the unique properties of the proposed measures and reformulating the problems, the trilevel structure models are reduced to mixed-integer semi-infinite optimization programs. This paper further applies an active-set algorithm, combined with a cutting-plane scheme to solve the proposed models. Numerical examples indicate that the proposed formulations are valid and that the solution algorithm can solve the problems effectively and efficiently. The models for targeted attacks provide practical implications on identifying critical infrastructures for evacuation.},

This paper presents an evaluation framework by comparing the subway mode shares of 25 districts in Seoul, South Korea. In this effort, causal relationships between the inherent conditions of the district and the resultant mode shares were identified on the basis of regression models with independent variables indicating the system supply level. The expected mode shares from the regression model and the actual shares were then compared as a way to identify districts displaying relatively higher or lower subway mode shares. These processes revealed key influential factors affecting subway mode share and suggest that the system supply level is strongly related to mode share and that ridership increases may be achieved by providing convenient access to stations. The implications of this study are expected to shed light on potential policy actions to improve transit ridership, particularly for those districts with relatively lower levels of ridership.},

However, staff members frequently lack the adequate local data, training, and guidance needed to begin adaptation planning assessments. As a result, planning for adapting to climate change has remained generally abstract and lacks the specificity needed to identify potential system vulnerabilities, assess risk, and prioritize responses. This report outlines a geographic information system-based method with which transportation departments can assess vulnerabilities to climate change in their multimodal surface transportation systems. The city of Portland, Oregon, is used as an illustrative case study. The proposed method allows for preliminary vulnerability identification, prioritization, and impact assessment and can also be used as a basis for more advanced analysis and scenario testing. This research also identifies and describes data gaps and other barriers to climate change adaptation planning for surface transportation.},

abstract = {The preponderance of evidence suggests that denser, connected street networks result in fewer vehicle miles traveled (VMT). However, there is less agreement as the size of the effect. Also, there is no clear understanding as to the specific aspects of street network design that are most important in contributing to lower VMT. One reason why there is some confusion on this point is that past studies have not always made a clear distinction between different street network features such as density, connectivity, and configuration in the design of their studies. In our research, care was taken to fully characterize the different features of the street network including a street pattern classification system that works at the neighborhood level but also focuses on the citywide street network as a separate but equally important entity; therefore, our results present a clearer picture of the relative contribution of network density, connectivity, and configuration to relative differences in VMT. We employ a spatial kriging analysis of NHTS data in combination with a generalized linear regression model in order to examine the extent to which community designs – in terms of the street network characteristics and street design features – induce lower VMT in 24 California cities of populations from 30,000 to just over 100,000. Overall, all three aspects of a street network – configuration, compactness, and connectivity – play a role in performance with our results showing much lower VMT for people living in denser, gridded street networks.},

The commuter railway operator in Taiwan, the Taiwan Railways 3 Administration (TRA), is no exception. To accommodate the substantial future demand, the TRA 4 is interested in understanding the potential benefit of adopting various advanced signaling 5 systems, such as hybrid or moving-block systems. Appropriate evaluation tools are needed for 6 this purpose; therefore, in this study, we developed a set of analytical capacity models for 7 commuter rail operations with advanced signaling systems. These models were implemented in 8 the busiest corridor in the TRA system. The empirical results show that advanced signaling 9 systems generally have positive capacity effects; however, the benefit of adopting hybrid 10 systems may not be substantially higher than that of adopting a conventional signaling system 11 designed with ideal block lengths. In addition, certain sections' capacities remain unchanged 12 with upgraded signaling systems due to constraints from the station track layouts. For these 13 sections, improving track layouts would be the most beneficial approach to increase the 14 capacities. Therefore, all possible capacity improvement alternatives should be considered 15 together to determine the optimal capacity improvement plan. The use of these proposed capacity 16 models can help railway agencies with similar operational environments on their capacity 17 management and resource planning.},

abstract = {Improving mobility is seen as key to facilitating the economic uplift of the urban poor. In South Africa, the majority of the urban poor live on the periphery of cities. They travel long distances at great cost to go to work and school and are dependent on public transport and nonmotor- ized transport (NMT) (walking or cycling) for their travel needs. Despite legislation and policies that emphasize the role of public transport and NMT, road planning practice in South Africa continues to be automobile- centric. The needs of other road users are often overlooked, even in areas where they are in the majority. This paper describes the use of spatial multicriteria evaluation to rank modes according to their suit- ability at points along a defined route by using land use, socioeconomic, environmental, and transportation factors in combination to describe the contextual setting of the route. A case study conducted along an existing arterial route in Cape Town, South Africa, is used to demon- strate the method and the results of the analysis. The research finds that contextual regimes can be identified along the route and shows that each of these regimes has differing implications for the various modes that pass through these corridors.},

Obtaining reliable data sets for these models can be one of the most cost prohibitive and time consuming stages of such an endeavor. For this reason many MPOs and state DOTs have not yet adopted integrated land use and transportation forecasting tools in spite of their clear potential. The purpose of this paper is to present a case study data development program that was able to successfully provide all of the needed data for the estimation and calibration of an integrated land use and transportation forecasting model. The recently developed Cube Land model was implemented in the Montgomery (Alabama) Area Metropolitan Planning Organization with funding from the Alabama Department of Transportation. The data development program was fiscally and temporally constrained and replicates typical model development conditions in medium-sized MPOs. This case study presents findings demonstrating that locally developed datasets combined with national data sources and " off-the-shelf " , relatively low cost but high quality, purchasable datasets can be obtained in a relatively short amount of time and are sufficient to estimate and calibrate an integrated land use and transportation forecasting model. One of the constraints placed upon this project from its funders was that both the data development and model implementation had to result in readily transferable processes that could be implemented by other planning agencies within the state. An argument is presented that these processes are transferable not only within the state of Alabama but also to other small-to medium-sized MPOs with in the US.},

abstract = {1 Using data from the 2001 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS), recent research showed that 2 transit's usual share is greater than its actual share for workers in the U.S. for a variety of commuter 3 markets. A mode's usual share is the percent of workers who state that they usually use that mode 4 for commuting in a week while the actual share of a mode is the percent of work trips by that mode 5 by the same workers on a typical work day. This paper explores if this relative relationship between 6 a mode's usual and actual shares holds true for common modes other than transit for the U.S. 7 Mathematically, the paper determines that this relative relationship cannot hold true for all modes; in 8 other words, the usual share has to be smaller than the actual share for one or more modes other than 9 transit. Empirically, it uses the same 2001 NHTS to test this relative relationship for three common 10 modes (POVs, walk and bike) and for a variety of commuter markets. The empirical results confirm 11 the mathematical conclusion with the relative relationship being true for bike but not true for POVs 12 and walk. In addition, the relationship between usual and actual shares is determined not solely by 13 the mode but also by individual commuter markets. Finally, the deviation between usual and actual 14 shares in percentage terms is large for transit and walk, but small for POVs and bike. One direction 15 of future research would be to determine the reasons of these differences in the usual-actual 16 relationship across modes and commuter markets.},

abstract = {This paper explores the public perception of feebates and climate change within California. Feebates are designed to offer private vehicle buyers a rebate for the purchase of a low-emission vehicle and a fee for those that produce higher emissions. In 2009, the authors conducted a series of 12 focus groups throughout the State, which were followed by a computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) survey of 3,000 California residents. The survey results were used to gain insights into feebate policy response. Researchers employed the focus groups to gauge participant understanding of the feebate concept and overall response in preparation for the statewide survey. The survey analysis illustrates how opinion is distributed by key demographic variables, including political affiliation. In addition, the survey probed respondents on their relative sentiments towards climate change, foreign oil dependence, and policy fairness. The results suggest that roughly three quarters ({\~{}}76{\%}) of the population would support a feebate policy. Approximately one in five participants ({\~{}}22{\%}) would oppose the policy. The survey data were explored through a cross-tabulation of policy position with demographic and socioeconomic attributes. To evaluate how key factors simultaneously influence policy support/opposition, the authors developed an ordinal regression model, which could correctly predict 89.5{\%} of the sample's policy position. While the focus group and survey results reflect some divergence (i.e., the survey yielded more feebate policy support than the focus groups), the understanding gained from this study can aid California policymakers in assessing the feebate policy as a mechanism to address climate change from the public's perspective.},

To assist these stakeholders in addressing the congestion problem, baseline data and predictive models are needed. Unfortunately, data on truck queuing and research on the methodologies that can be used to estimate truck queuing time are limited. With an increasing number of marine terminals offering live webcam views of their gates to manage demand for the terminals, these webcams could be used to gather much-needed truck queuing information and other truck-related data. Data collected from the webcams were used to develop models to predict truck queuing times on an hourly or daily basis. Given the inherent fuzziness of the truck arrival data, this study evaluated the suitability of four predictive models capable of dealing with fuzzy data: multiple linear regression, fuzzy regression, clustering fuzzy regression, and support vector machines. Analysis showed that fuzzy regression outperformed other methods for the given data set.},

This means that trips and activities occurring during the survey time should be programmatically identified in chronological order and should respect conventional definitions. Referring to the research results of our colleagues, and combining the experience from both the French National Travel Survey 2007–2008 and the Personal Mobility Survey in Lille, a series of methods has been developed and applied: 1) Filtering invalid data, 2) Cutting the data chains into " moving " and " stopping " segments, 3) Estimating missing data, 4) Assuming the mode choice, 5) Grouping stop points into visited locations, 6) Identifying the type of visited points, 7) Map-matching, 8) Connecting segments to trips. In order to use the maximum available information and guarantee the quality of the results, some feedback between the different methods is implemented within the algorithm. The resulting processing system is ready for use in other applications.},

abstract = {The management of severe congestion in complex urban networks calls for dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) models that can replicate real traffic situations with long queues and spillbacks. DynaMIT-P, a mesoscopic traffic simulation system, was enhanced and calibrated to capture the traffic characteristics in the city of Beijing, China. All demand and supply inputs and parameters were calibrated simultaneously using sensor counts and floating car travel time data. Successful calibration was achieved with the Path-Size Logit route choice model, which accounts for overlapping routes. Furthermore, explicit representations of lane groups were required to properly model the traffic delays and queues. A modified treatment of acceptance capacity was required to model the large number of short links in the transportation network (close to the length of one vehicle). In addition, the impacts of bicycles and pedestrians on auto traffic were modeled by dynamic road segment capacities. It is found that the synthesis of solutions to those individual issues is crucial for the successful calibration of such a complicated traffic network.},

Consequently, travelers were once again confronted with the opportunity to find better alternatives. The traffic pattern of the Minneapolis road network was likely to readjust, because of the new link addition. However, questions arise about the possible reasons (or components in the route choice process) that are likely to influence travelers crossing the Mississippi, who had to choose among the bridge options, including the new I-35W bridge. Using GPS data and web-based survey collected both before and after the replacement bridge opened, a bridge choice model is estimated using weighted-least squares logit. In this way the proportion of I-35W trips can be estimated depending on the assigned values of the explanatory variables, which include: statistical measures of the travel time distribution experienced by the subjects, alternative diversity, and others. The results showed that travel time savings and reliability were the main reasons for choosing the new I-35W bridge.},

This study tries to fill this gap partially by 5 developing and comparing three single family home (SFH) development forecast models. The 6 three models are characterized separately as: (1) assumed market homogeneity and atomization 7 of development projects; (2) deterministic market segmentation and synthesis of projects; and (3) 8 probabilistic market segmentation and synthesis of projects, using a latent class approach. 9 10 Examination of forecast results shows that all three models can successfully capture the basic 11 spatial pattern of SFH development in the region. While Models 2 and 3 are more sophisticated 12 and more theoretically appealing, they do not produce better forecast results than Model 1 due to 13 some practical issues. Specifically, such practical issues include the lack of developer 14 information for forecast years, the small sample size of large-size projects, the physics of 15 forecasting a small number of large projects across a large number of location alternatives, the 16 need to sample large numbers of alternatives when estimating non-MNL models, and the 17 difficulty of using dummy variables in latent class models. In this particular context it would 18 seem that the simpler model specification proved to be both easier to implement and more 19 accurate; however, we would expect to see Models 2 and 3 perform better when those practical 20 issues are solved, at least partially, in future research.},

As a result, it has become increasingly important to understand the decision-making processes involved in determining travel behavior. To develop a more complete picture of travel behavior, research should consider diverse groups of travelers with various mobility abilities and needs. Research on urban form and travel behavior was extended beyond adult travel by examining teen travelers of 13 to 19 years of age in the greater Toronto area, Ontario, Canada. The issue was probed through the collection of quantitative and qualitative travel data from first-year students at the University of Toronto. The survey explored attitudes toward different modes in relation to the locational attributes of the respondent's hometown neighborhood. The narratives of the survey participants illustrate that the final travel choice is determined by the presence of supportive infrastructure that not only facilitates active mode choices but also shapes the perceptions and attitudes that teens form as a result of daily travel experiences. Findings underscore the importance of providing genuine choices that meet the needs of teens and other travelers with limited mobility.},

abstract = {The study of travellers behaviour in ATIS (Advanced Travellers Information Systems) contexts is a crucial task in order to properly simulate phenomena like as the compliance with the information, the route choice in presence of information, etc. A correct simulation of these phenomena is crucial in appraising ATIS options. Observations of travellers behaviours are often made with reference to simulated environments. SP (Stated Preferences) techniques are generally applied. In literature two main types of tools for SP experiments under ATIS are found: driving-simulators (DSs) and travel-simulators (TSs). Both methods are computer-based. DSs are characterised by a greater realism, provided that the respondents are asked to drive in order to implement their travel choices, as it happens in the real world. In TSs, travel choices are entered after the description of the options and characteristics is presented, without any driving. TSs compensate some lack of realism with a minor cost and with less burden for the respondents, thus allowing for many more trials by the same respondent. In this work both the tools have been employed in order to collect data for analyses on travellers' behaviours in ATIS contexts. The same network has been simulated by using both the tools and two very similar experiments have been carried out. The respondents' reactions to the same information dispatched in the two environments have been registered and analysed. Results are here discussed in order to: compare the observations from the two experiments; verify the internal consistency of the collected data; discuss the peculiarities of the two data-collecting tools.},

Owing to this recognition, in recent years there has been a surge of interest among policy makers and practitioners in promoting non-motorized commuting in Ireland. This paper presents an investigative study to explain the non-motorized mode share of commuter journeys in terms of relevant socioeconomic, transportation and household specific factors in five major cities of Ireland. The non-motorized modes were analyzed using the latest available Irish census data (2006). An overall analysis of the entire study region was conducted along with the development of models specific to each city, gender, distance (under and over 5. km) and to the choice between non-motorized modes (walking and cycling) to gain a deeper understanding of the determinants which influence the choice of non-motorized travel mode for commuter journeys. Gender, car ownership and journey distance were revealed by analysis to have the largest effect on the use of non-motorized transport (NMT). Major Irish cities show similar behavior regarding NMT use and nation-wide policy development can be successful, provided some region or city specific differences are incorporated during policy implementation. The developed models are important tools in understanding the effectiveness of the policy interventions in promoting non-motorized travel for utilitarian purposes across the major cities of Ireland. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

This paper reports a meta-analysis based on 1561 elasticities collected from 155 studies conducted using British data dating between 1957 and 2009. The study forms a valuable addition to the emerging body of meta analysis research that has previously considered elasticities and values. However it is unique in the volume of evidence that is reviewed, the range of issues that are considered and inclusion of substantive numbers of results from unpublished sources. This meta-analysis covers price elasticities for travel by car, rail, bus and underground. Key features of the dataset that are described include: the sources of elasticities, the distribution of studies over time and illustration of elasticities by mode and short or long run. A meta-model is fitted using the pooled dataset and including a wide range of variables such as model type, mode, distance and other relevant explanatory variables. The resulting R 2 goodness of fit of 0.524 seems reasonable given that no prior screening for outliers was applied and the disparate nature of the studies. Interpretation of the price elasticities implied by the model is given in the light of previous research and current practice. The study findings are clearly consistent with both whilst providing an added layer of insight to the evidence and a model with practical applicability.},

abstract = {Network user equilibrium or user optimum is an ideal state that can hardly be achieved in real traffic. More often than not, every day traffic tends to be in disequilibrium rather than equilibrium, thanks to uncertainties in demand and supply of the network. In this paper we propose a hybrid route choice model for studying non-equilibrium traffic. It com-bines pre-trip route choice and en-route route choice to solve dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) in large-scale networks. Travelers are divided into two groups, habitual travelers and adaptive travelers. Habitual travelers strictly follow their pre-trip routes which can be generated in the way that major links, such as freeways or major arterial streets, are favored over minor links, while taking into account historical traffic information. Adaptive travel-ers are responsive to real-time information and willing to explore new routes from time to time. We apply the hybrid route choice model in a synthetic medium-scale network and a large-scale real network to assess its effect on the flow patterns and network performances, and compare them with those obtained from Predictive User Equilibrium (PUE) DTA. The results show that PUE-DTA usually produces considerably less congestion and less fre-quent queue spillback than the hybrid route choice model. The ratio between habitual and adaptive travelers is crucial in determining realistic flow and queuing patterns. Consistent with previous studies, we found that supplying a small number of travelers real-time infor-mation is more beneficial to network performance than supplying the majority of travelers with real-time information. Finally, some suggestions are given on how to calibrate the hybrid route choice model in practice.},

Recent advances in GPS monitoring technologies have made it possible to implement panel surveys with lengths of weeks, months or even years. The many advantageous features of GPS-based panel surveys make such surveys attractive for travel behavior studies, but data collected from such surveys feature within-household correlations that arise from the panel design, and often non-normal distributions, both of which should be taken into account at the design and analysis stages. The sample size analysis in this paper focuses on examining impacts of a policy measure on travel behavior through before-and-after studies. The sample size analysis is based on the GPS data collected in the multi-year Commute Atlanta study. The basis for the framework and methods of sample size estimation are derived from sample size procedures featuring the generalized estimating equation (GEE) approach. These sample size procedures have been proposed for longitudinal studies in biomedical research. This paper adapts these procedures to the design of panel surveys for urban travel behavior studies with the information made available from the Commute Atlanta study. The findings from this research indicate that the required sample sizes should be much larger than the sample sizes in existing GPS-based panel surveys. This research recommends a range of sample sizes based on the objectives, assumptions and survey lengths of before-and-after studies.},

However, this replacement is done without clear criteria. Several benefits (safety as well as operational benefits) have been attributed to the U-turn solution. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of any solution is contingent upon its proper use. This study investigates the effectiveness of using restricted lefts/through U-turns in comparison with the signal control option. The analysis was performed in two phases; in the first phase the two intersection treatments (u-turn, and signal control) are modeled and analyzed, in a micorsimulation testing environment, with different geometric and traffic conditions. In the second phase, two regression models were developed to relate performance with physical and operational variables. The models aimed to investigate the impact of different physical/operational variables in the effectiveness of each intersection treatment. By comparing the developed models we were able to deduce basic guidelines that rationalize the use of u-turns for intersections treatment. Such guidelines will help local transportation agencies in the design/implementation of U-turns as a viable intersection treatment in urban areas.},

This was based on two-day activity and travel diary 4 data from Cairo, Egypt. The proposed modelling approach entails the modelling of the following 5 two dimensions: (1) the solo and joint in-home as well as out-of-home maintenance activity 6 participations, and (2) the solo and joint " with whom " out-of-home maintenance activity 7 participations. In order to achieve the study objective, two mixed logit models were developed. 8 The proposed modelling framework is distinguished from previous related studies in several 9 capabilities. First, it accommodates heterogeneity in responsiveness to solo and joint " with 10 whom " maintenance activity participation. Therefore, intra-individual variations in joint activity 11 participation could be accommodated. Second, it could determine the possible sources of any 12 solo and joint preference heterogeneity that may exist. Third, the model is capable to capture 13 correlations due to shared unobservable factors among solo and joint activity participation. 14 Empirical evidences support many of our hypotheses regarding joint " with whom " maintenance 15 activity participations. Household traditions, social roles, and lifestyle were found to be the main 16 factors which affect joint travel participation.},

The first is an on-line survey that provides information on cyclists' demographics as well as their household composition. The survey also gathers data on respondents' motivation for and obstacles to cycling. The second activity collects data on actual cycling trips using GPS units. We describe these units and the steps taken to validate the data. We use the GPS data to produce trip generation and attraction rates for cycling as a function of land use. We also generate a histogram of observed cycling trip lengths that can be used to calibrate a gravity-type model of trip distribution. We then explore the methods by which the survey and GPS data may be combined to develop multi-class and multi-trip purpose generalized cost functions. These formulations may be applied to prioritizing infrastructure investments, as well as for mode and path choice models. We conclude with a discussion of ongoing research work.},

abstract = {Rail transport plays a key role in safely and economically moving hazardous materials from production to consumption points. As a result of heightened safety and security concerns, interest in all possible means of reducing the risk of transporting hazardous materials has intensified in recent years. Various approaches to railroad accident prevention-including infrastructure improvements, packaging enhancements, operational changes, and alteration of the route structure-are available. Operations research techniques have been applied to consider each approach individually, but no technique has integrated the approaches into a single model. This study introduced an integrated mathematical model to formally consider a combination of approaches to reduce risk. The framework enabled simultaneous consideration of route choices, tank car safety designs, and track maintenance to determine an optimal strategy that minimized risk and costs. Model formulation was provided in the form of nonlinear and mixed-integer programming. For illustration, a small-scale, hypothetical network flow of a hazardous material was considered. Numerical results showed that the optimal strategy could substantially reduce risk with a marginal increase in costs. The integrated model provided a framework for choosing the most effective risk-mitigation strategy for a particular rail network given various constraints. It could be applied to multiple types of commodities and adapted to address various questions for local, regional, or systemwide planning and decision making to provide the safest transportation possible given constrained resources. The framework would be particularly beneficial to rail carriers interested in how to best allocate safety and engineering resources to maximize safety.},

abstract = {This research aimed to develop a methodology for analyzing the platoon impacts on major-street left-turn (MSLT) delay at two-way stop-controlled intersections. The main idea was to use a microscopic simulation tool to simulate different platoon scenarios in opposing through traffic and then to apply regression models to capture the impacts of platoons on the delay of MSLT. Two platoon variables were adopted as a simplification of the complex platoon scenarios to make analysis of the platoon effects on MSLT delay practical. The first two steps were to build simulation models for real-world unsignalized intersections and simulate scenarios with a combination of various factors related to platoons in VISSIM simulation. The models were calibrated with field data before simulation started. The next step was to define, derive, and calibrate two platoon variables for describing the duration and intensity of platoon arrivals in the opposing through traffic. This process effectively simplified the large combination of various factors. Finally, the two platoon variables and their relationship with the change factor of MSLT delay were modeled with regression tools. A relationship between the two variables and the delay change factor was established. The relationship indicated a positive effect by upstream platoons on MSLT delay and made it possible to quantify the impacts. The findings in this research could be used for research on platoon or signal impacts on left-turn treatments.},

Tracking an organization's own performance over time provides an indication of whether performance is improving, declining, or remaining about the same, but it does not tell one how well one could be doing. Comparing one's own performance to that of comparable organizations—peer comparison—helps provide valuable insights into one's strengths and weaknesses relative to others operating under similar conditions. Contacting top-performing peers to learn from them and adapt what they do well to one's own activities holds great potential for improving an organization's performance. Recent research conducted by the U.S. Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) has developed a guidebook for applying performance measurement and peer comparison in the U.S. public transport industry as part of a comprehensive benchmarking process—a process of systematically seeking out best practices to emulate. A key activity in any benchmarking process is the development of a peer group, as using an inappropriate peer group can lead to faulty conclusions about one's own performance. This paper presents the quantitative methodology developed by the TCRP G-11 project for forming peer groups and discusses the process used to develop the methodology. Ryus et al.},

abstract = {1 2 Many studies have shown that car sharing can reduce the transportation costs for a large segment 3 of the population. Car sharing also reduces the number of private vehicles on the road because 4 members do not purchase their own car. However, the traditional car sharing business model is 5 difficult to scale geographically to neighborhoods with lower population densities because the 6 operator must bear the upfront fixed cost of purchasing or leasing the vehicles in the fleet. 7 In contrast to traditional car sharing, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) car sharing allows car owners to 8 convert their personal vehicles into shared cars which can be rented to other drivers on a short-9 term basis. This model leverages the fact that most privately owned vehicles sit idle over 90{\%} of 10 the day. Peer-to-Peer car sharing alleviates upfront costs, and thus scales more economically than 11 traditional car sharing to lower density neighborhoods. As a result P2P car sharing provides 12 greater potential for car accessibility than traditional car sharing. There are several new service 13 companies dedicated to P2P car sharing. 14 In this paper, we develop a methodology to assess the market feasibility of P2P car sharing. 15 Further, we apply the methodology to develop a case study of the P2P car sharing in Pittsburgh, 16 PA. We find that the market for P2P car sharing is economically viable. However, uncertain and 17 fragmented public policy and car insurance regimes threaten the growth and investment in P2P 18 car sharing.},

abstract = {A reduction in the energy intensity of private transport is the least cost-feasible approach to mitigate the uncertainties of future oil supplies, given the impending peak in world conventional oil production. The built environment and transport infrastructure of an urban form determine the extent to which low-impact adaptations to these constraints are possible and hence the resilience of residents to fuel price shocks and constraints. This paper introduces the concept of active mode accessibility (AMA), defined as the proportion of activities that can be reached by active modes alone, given the population demographics of the study area. AMA is characterized by the underlying geographic form of an urban area and its transport networks. High AMA means that the resident transport activity system can be served with minimal energy input; consequently resilience to fuel shocks and constraints is greater. The AMA method is based on accessibility analysis and extends the depth of the analysis with energy-based activity modeling and defines a measure of energy accessibility. The paper introduces a spatial method for calculating the AMA within a selected study area and a geographic information system-based tool for applying the method, and presents two case studies. Central Christchurch, New Zealand, gives an AMA of 100{\%} because the city has a high density of destinations and a wide range of local facilities available for every activity. The satellite township of Rolleston gives a significantly lower AMA of 59{\%}, principally because of a lack of local preschool and high school facilities and an insufficient diversity of destinations for some activities.},

Although a decision tree successfully accommodates route choice preferences, the use of " sharp cut-off points " to discretise the domain of a continuous-valued attribute makes a decision tree too sensitive, leading to misclassifications. This paper introduces fuzzy decision tree induction to relax the sensitivity of classical decision trees. Transforming crisp discretisation in a classical decision tree into soft discretisation using fuzzy representation, fuzzy decision tree induction increases flexibility in classifying a new instance. The experiment results indicate that fuzzy route choice decision trees outperform non-fuzzy decision trees in terms of predictive accuracy and that the fuzzy models are more effectively applicable in practice.},

A further extension of this concept for all-battery electric 7 vehicles (EVs) would include the ability for consumers to exchange their discharged batteries for 8 charged ones, using " battery swap stations. " These would allow for extended driving range for 9 EV service subscribers, but with increased costs to build and operate the stations. Our analysis 10 centers around a " base case " scenario from 2012–2027 that includes a set of assumptions about 11 subscriber membership levels, gasoline and electricity prices, corporate level expenditures, and 12 the capital costs of batteries, charging stations, and battery swap stations.

abstract = {More than at any other time, the status of the Highway Trust Fund is in doubt. Modern federal surface transportation policy began in 1956, and its survival is threatened by a lack of political will to increase the main source of revenue for the program: the federal excise tax on gasoline. In the short term, the federal highway and transit programs can survive with more borrowed money or with an increase in federal gas tax. However, even if the political will to do either of these things is found, both sources of revenue are unsustainable in the long term. As Congress faces this transportation funding crisis, it must consider how to avoid a similar problem in the future by transitioning to a reliable source of revenue immediately. Failing to do so would put the national transportation system and national competitiveness at risk. This paper explores the following three policy options for long-term federal transportation funding by presenting the advantages and disadvantages of each one: ( a ) continued current funding, ( b ) improved user fees, and ( c ) dedicated general revenue. These options offer general guidance for funding policy rather than detailed proposals; each option has possible variations. However, each option sets a specific direction for future federal transportation policy, and each provides policy trade-offs. The purpose of this paper is to describe the trade-offs regarding strategies for transitioning to a sustainable federal surface transportation program.},

abstract = {More realistic and accurate traffic simulation of two-lane roundabouts is needed. Precise traffic simulation will support reliable traffic analysis for isolated roundabouts as well as road networks that combine signalized and unsignalized intersections and their interaction. Three existing two-lane roundabouts were studied to obtain data for reliable calibration of the VISSIM micro-simulation software. Data were differentiated by interior and exterior lanes for both entry and circulatory lanes of the roundabout. Multiple parameters in VISSIM were studied to obtain more realistic results including temporal gaps between vehicles, speed profiles (approaching and circulating speed), and car following model parameters. BACKGROUND Although the number of two-lane roundabouts is increasing in the United States (US), the research, data and models available for multi-lane roundabouts in limited. Most of the US research published, to date, has relied on a limited number of multi-lane roundabouts that are not operating at or near capacity (which is understandable as most roundabouts in the US have been in operation for less than 10 to 15 years). Additionally, studies are limited that explore calibration with field data. The NCHRP Report 572, Applying Roundabouts in the United States (2007), has the most comprehensive roundabout dataset in the United States. New US capacity models were produced for single-lane and the critical lane of two-lane roundabouts and represent the US data better than other international models. The recommended capacity model for the critical lane of a two-lane roundabout is shown in Equation 1.},

Structural equation modeling was used to empirically test the effect of disruptions on service quality and market share for the network and low-cost airlines. The findings suggested that network airlines could manage disruptions more effectively than low-cost airlines. Although disruptions had a negative effect on service quality for both network and low-cost airlines, their effect on airline market share was different. Disruptions had a significant (negative) effect on market share for the low-cost airlines, whereas they did appear to affect market share for the network airlines. Multigroup analysis of invariance was used to compare the effect of disruptions on service quality and market share between airlines. The analysis showed that the effect of disruptions on service quality and market share was different between airlines. On the basis of the findings of this study, recommendations for managers in the airline industry are provided.},

abstract = {In the face of enormous and continuously growing demand but limited infrastructure, railroads worldwide are struggling with the capacity challenge. As expansion projects are time consuming and capital intensive, existing infrastructure should be used as efficiently as possible. Different categories of metrics exist for measuring how well the infrastructure is utilized including throughput (trains, tons, cars, train-km, ton-km), level of service (terminal dwell, velocity, delays) and asset utilisation (velocity, occupation time of infrastructure). However, current metrics cannot provide enough clues for the railroad authorities to choose the best combination of heterogeneous traffic. Different combinations of traffic incur different costs, revenue, delays and capacity utilisation. This article studies the new concept of profit-generating capacity and introduces a novel approach to measure capacity utilisation by means of profit. It would bring capacity analysis in line with the operational goal of railroads and enable considering different values of trains, seeing the big picture and more efficient decision making for getting the maximum value. A case study for heterogeneous traffic of bulk and intermodal trains is simulated by Rail Traffic Controller (RTC) for various traffic levels (8 to 48 trains a day) and incremental levels of heterogeneity (0{\%} percent of bulk trains to 100{\%}). The early results of studying this new concept are presented and discussed.},

It is also a low margin industry 3 where even small savings are important to secure a healthy industry outcome. In this 4 environment, use of multiple modes of transportation should be considered, if they offer 5 potential for reduced transportation costs. A research study at Michigan Tech University 6 developed a spatially-based model to investigate the movements of over 100,000 actual 7 truckload shipments of logs in northern Wisconsin, northern Minnesota, and the Upper Peninsula 8 of Michigan. Current road infrastructure, updated rail network and rail siding data, and publicly 9 available rate information on each mode were combined to create a model that compares the 10 overall trip cost between the actual truck trips and another transportation alternative that 11 combines truck and rail transportation. This paper will review the development of the model and 12 present the modeling outcomes which suggest that over 20{\%} of transit ton-miles that were 13 shipped by trucks could have been more cost-effectively moved through combined truck and rail 14 (bimodal) transportation and would have led to roughly 3.75{\%} reduction in transportation costs. 15 In addition, sensitivity analysis conducted to analyze the effects of changing fuel prices for the 16 modal split suggested that every one dollar increase in fuel price would warrant additional seven 17 percent shift of ton-miles to bimodal transportation.},

Binary logistic models are used to determine the socio-economic characteristics of individuals who fall above and below the cap. The results demonstrate the importance of car ownership, journey distance, mode choice, and household composition in determining whether a commuter is above or below a cap. Many commuters who fall above the cap are likely drive to work over long distances, have dependent children in their household and own more than one car.},

Congestion induced by incidents results in extra travel time 4 and travel cost. Quantifying incident induced delay (IID) would help people better understand 5 the real cost of incidents, maximize the benefit-cost-ratio of investment on incident remedy 6 actions, and develop active traffic management and integrated corridor management strategies. 7 In this study, a new approach for IID quantification was developed. Combining a modified 8 queuing diagram and short-term traffic flow forecasting techniques, the new approach can be 9 easily applied to measurements from existing loop detectors and overcame the limitation brought 10 by the zero vehicle-length assumption in traditional deterministic queuing theory. Furthermore, 11 this approach is easy to apply because it uses only the volume data from loop detectors to 12 compute IID. Verifications using the video-extracted ground truth IID data found that the IID 13 estimation errors by the new approach were within 6{\%} for the two incident cases studied in this 14 research. This implies that the new approach is capable of producing fairly accurate freeway IID 15 estimates using volumes measured by existing traffic sensors. This approach has been 16 implemented in a web-based system, which enables quick, convenient, and reliable freeway IID 17 estimation in the Puget Sound region.},

Path analysis was used to analyze such a process. A detailed stated preference survey for Chicago commuters composed the data-gathering approach. The analysis results showed that real-time transit information systems might achieve the goal of increasing transit ridership through their psychological effects on commuters. The results indicated that the provision of real-time transit information might serve as an intervention to break current transit nonusers' travel habits and in consequence increase the mode share of transit use. Moreover, the results of this study suggest that real-time transit information may be more successful in increasing transit ridership if combined with facilitating programs that enhance commuters' opportunities to be exposed to such systems before using them.},

One of the key 7 issues in this system is recharging the batteries, and consequently the location of charging 8 stations. The lack of regulation in this respect, especially in urban areas, has motivated the 9 development of a methodology for the optimal location of stations, using an area of Lisbon 10 with a strong concentration of employment and housing as a case study. This type of area 11 is adequate for slow charging since vehicles stay parked for several hours within a 24 hour 12 period. The methodology makes use of a „maximal covering model‟ for the optimal 13 location of stations, which maximizes the demand covered with an acceptable level of 14 service and sets the number of devices to be installed. Optimization required a prior study 15 on demand, supply and main constraints. The results will be useful in the future planning 16 of this system.},

abstract = {The performance of wireless magnetometers for vehicle detection was evaluated under favorable and adverse weather conditions at two locations: 1) a signalized intersection with stop bar and advance zones, and 2) a railroad grade crossing, as a potential backup system to control the operation of gates. Loop detectors were installed at the same location of the magnetometers, providing an initial pointer to potential detection errors. Video images were used to visually confirm all potential errors at the two sites. At the signalized intersection, results showed that the most common type of detection error by the magnetometers at stop bar zones was false calls due to vehicles in the adjacent lane, with 5.6{\%} to 7.2{\%} error per lane in favorable weather and 7.7{\%} to 15.4{\%} in winter conditions. At the advance zones the most frequent error in all weather conditions was missed calls due to vehicles traveling between two lanes, ranging from 2.9{\%} to 9.7{\%} in the left-turn lanes. On the other hand, at the railroad grade crossing most errors were false and stuck-on calls. On average, there was one stuck-on call per every 150 trains, and one per every 2800 vehicles. False calls varied from 56{\%} to 60{\%} in the left-turn lane, mostly caused by vehicles traveling in the opposing direction (this was an atypical location with no median separating the two directions of traffic), and from 13{\%} to 14{\%} in the through lane. Future research is recommended at sites with higher traffic volumes and to analyze the effects of different vehicle types in the detection errors.},

This work, then, develops a methodology for generating activities on the basis of the time since the last activity of the same type was generated, by using a hazard-based formulation. In addition, the model explicitly accounts for the competition between activities through the use of a competing hazard framework.

Recent advances in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) make 3 it possible to conduct activities virtually, thus obviating the need for physical travel for some types 4 of activities. Accordingly, the use of ICT may contribute to reducing urban congestion and 5 alleviating air-quality problems. However, it may generate significant additional and induced 6 travel due to the increased connectivity and access to resources. Empirical insights on how the 7 growing use of ICT affects travel patterns and vice-versa have important application in planning, 8 travel demand forecasting, and environmental analysis.

Structural equation models (SEMs) were developed to 11 determine the relationship between ICT usage, virtual in-home activity participation, physical 12 in-home and out-of-home activity participation, and observed travel dimensions. The information 13 analyzed includes personal and household socio-demographics, ICT usage, and vehicle availability 14 on activity patterns among household members.

The research presented here was designed to better understand patterns of neighborhood change in neighborhoods with new fixed-guideway transit stations. The analysis focused on the impacts on low-income households, people of color and renters, three groups who need high-quality, affordable transit and are likely to use such transit when it is provided. Changes in a broad range of demographic, housing, and transportation characteristics were analyzed in 42 neighborhoods in 12 metropolitan areas first served by fixed-guideway transit between 1990 and 2000 and compared to changes in each neighborhood's corresponding metropolitan area. While neighborhood changes varied, the most predominant pattern saw incomes, housing values, and rents rise more rapidly and vehicle ownership become more common than in the corresponding metropolitan region as a whole. Gentrification, characterized by increasing property values and incomes, occurred in the majority of the newly transit-served neighborhoods studied. One negative consequence of such gentrification was rapidly increasing rents, creating higher housing cost burdens for renter households. In addition, a new transit station sometimes set in motion a cycle of unintended consequences in which core transit users such as renters and low income households were priced out of transit-rich neighborhoods by higher-income, car owning residents less likely to use public transit for commuting. These neighborhood change patterns work against the goal of surrounding stations with " transit-oriented neighbors " who will regularly use the transit system.},

Using an empirically collected dataset in the New York City Area, we estimated a series of models to test these hypotheses.

As a result of climate change, sea level rise is rapidly becoming a major concern, especially for coastal regions. This paper develops an accessibility-based process to analyze transportation network vulnerability to quantify networkwide vulnerability and to identify the most vulnerable regions under different scenarios of sea level rise. The accessibility reduction rate before and after inundation is calculated to measure the potential consequences. The probability of different sea level rise scenarios-together with the overall accessibility reduction-contributes to the overall vulnerability of the transportation network. Most notably, the traffic analysis zones with the most accessibility reduction are considered the most vulnerable areas. This methodology is applied to the south Miami, Florida, road network under two sea level rise scenarios for 2060. The authors estimated the extent of road network vulnerability and accessibility reduction of individual traffic analysis zones for the two scenarios. The results show an almost 100{\%} accessibility reduction for traffic analysis zones with all roads inundated and as high as 30{\%} accessibility reduction in zones with some or no roads directly affected. This information can help local transportation planners, engineers, and decision makers identify the most vulnerable areas and transportation facilities resulting from sea level rise so as to make better and more informed decisions about adaptation planning and retrofitting.},

abstract = {With the advent of intelligent transportation systems in the past several decades, sensors are being extensively used to detect and count vehicle movements. The use of similar sensing technologies to detect pedestrian movements, however, is relatively new. Pedestrian counts are essential for decision making in pedestrian facility planning, signal timing, and pedestrian safety modeling. Conventional methods such as manual counting and videotaping can hardly satisfy the requirements of programs for the long-term collection of pedestrian data. Advances in sensing technologies have increased the ability to automate pedestrian data collection with the use of infrared sensors. However, the quality of the data from infrared sensors is still a problem; several field studies have shown that these types of sensors do not always perform perfectly. Field tests conducted in this study and by other research teams showed that infrared sensors usually counted significantly fewer pedestrians than the actual number. Thus, the quality of the data from infrared sensors needs to be enhanced. This paper proposes a nonparametric statistical method to calibrate raw sensor data to achieve this goal. A bivariate bootstrap sampling procedure was used to obtain correction factors for new counts instead of the traditional regression-based approach. Two case studies were used to test the validation of the proposed calibration procedure. Test results showed that the proposed procedure could improve the quality of the sensor data by reducing the discrepancy between sensor counts and ground truth (true) data. The transferability of the calibration procedure was also verified through the case studies.},

abstract = {The integration of transit needs into transit accessibility indexing is important for the evaluation of existing transportation systems and, service gaps, and for the identification of priority areas for future investments in transportation infrastructure. This paper details an accessibility-based transit need indexing model that focuses on the necessity of evaluating transit needs and transit accessibility simultaneously. A need index is developed to identify areas in high need of public transit services using economic and socio-demographic information and a composite accessibility index is developed to identify levels of access to transit services and shortcomings in service provision. The need for transit service is then modeled as the lack of transit accessibility and correlates different access indicators with their ability to predict transit service need. This model maps areas with different levels of transit accessibility and transit needs using a single score, which may be easily interpreted by planners examining transit equity. The model has been applied to the city of Meriden, CT and results have been compared with a general approach for consistency and effectiveness. The paper also highlights the model's usefulness through a representative example of its application.},

abstract = {Transit service spatial availability is a key parameter in attracting ridership. The TCRP Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual (TCQSM) provides a simple methodology to analyze service coverage level of service (SC-LOS) for fixed-route transit service. SC-LOS is determined from the percentage of transit-supportive area (TSA) that has transit service coverage, that is, that lies within a certain walking distance from a bus stop. The TCQSM method of determining TSA is based on zonal demographic and economic data and may not lead to the most accurate estimation of SC-LOS for an area with a significant influx of transit passengers from external sources, such as from across an international border. When such a ridership pattern exists or is suspected, the onboard passenger origin destination (O-D) survey method proposed in this research can be used to gather trip data to supplement the TCQSM's TSA estimates. Analysis showed that neglecting the data obtained from a recent onboard O-D survey conducted in the west side of the U.S. border city of El Paso, Texas, would result in an underestimation of the percentage of service area covered by transit and the SC-LOS.},

That is, 39 some choice studies have moved beyond a focus on assumed representative, mean-level 40 sensitivities toward a goal of representing the distribution of preferences across a sample. The 41 mixed multinomial logit (MMNL) model has served as a valuable means of estimating such 42 distributions of air travel preferences, including studies of business travellers, impacts of 43 airport level-of-service attributes, distributions of willingness-to-pay (WTP) and information 44 processing strategies. 45 An important issue that remains is whether the insight gained in previous studies, 46 which focussed on preferences in mature markets with relatively high per-capita rates of air 47 travel activity, applies to markets with low frequencies of airline patronage. This study 48 centres on a survey of travellers in Tehran, Iran, a low-frequency air travel market. The 49 analysis incorporates tests of a full range of distributions of random parameters to test the 50 impacts of restricting distributions to allow only normality, confirming the potential to 51 improve model fit with alternative distributions. The estimated distributions of WTP 52 measures confirm the value of accounting for preference heterogeneity in the analysis of air 53 itinerary choice behaviour in a low-frequency market, yielding lower mean WTP values 54 relative to analysis that omits effects of preference heterogeneity. 55 56},

abstract = {Within the broad patterns of use of personal vehicles, varying by usual speed, the competitive position of various types of electric drive and conventional engines are discussed. A quantitative evaluation of electric drive in light duty passenger cars follows. Fuel and electricity consumption of a mid-size vehicle with a low load glider using a conventional gasoline powertrain and seven different powertrains with varying degrees of use of electric drive is estimated by simulation for two on-road driving cycles representative of typical metropolitan area driving (congested city driving with frequent stops, and less congested suburban driving). Major classes of electric drive evaluated are the split-parallel-and-series system in both hybrid (HEV) and two plug-in hybrid (PHEV) versions, three series extended range electric vehicles (ER-EV), and a battery electric powertrain (EV). A cost model is used to estimate initial retail price of the eight vehicles. The ER-EV and EV have battery packs and electric machines with adequate power to provide a capability to consistently drive all electrically; the less expensive PHEV does not. The authors analyze vehicles not used for work, which depart from and return to the house, presuming capability to use a home charger during the day as well as overnight. Incremental Benefit/Cost ratios relative to the split hybrid (HEV) vehicle are constructed, incorporating costs of upgrading charging infrastructure to allow rapid daytime charging, as necessary. If gasoline prices rise to 4-5 {\$}/gallon, areas with suburban driving become cost beneficial for nearly all electric drive vehicles because (1) predicted fuel saving per hour of operation is greater than in congested city driving conditions, (2) vehicles are driven considerably more hours per day, and (3) inexpensive level 1 charging in garages is broadly feasible. On congested city roadway networks the electric drive powertrains are estimated to remain an inferior financial choice relative to conventional gasoline. As have many others before us, the authors predict declining {\$}/kWh of battery pack cost as plug-in electric range increases (holding peak electric kW constant), making long range plug-in electric drive capability relatively more attractive than computed by those who estimate that battery pack {\$}/kWh costs for plug-in vehicles are identical to those for HEVs.},

Three types of data loss were simulated: random losses, continuous loss of data for an extended period of time, and systematic loss of data at the same times each day. The algorithms were then compared by their fidelity in reconstructing the ``missing'' data. Of the eleven algorithms, those based in linear regression were found to be most accurate; however, their requirements are highest in terms of input data, which should be considered for practical implementation. By contrast, those based on historical data can be applied more often, but are significantly less accurate. Significant differences were also seen between the different data loss scenarios, with much higher bias for systematically missing data.},

CCRF is a flexible, probabilistic framework that can seamlessly 3 incorporate multiple traffic predictors and can exploit spatial and temporal correlations inherently 4 present in traffic data. In addition to improving the prediction accuracy, the probabilistic approach 5 also provides information about prediction uncertainty. Moreover, information about how important 6 particular predictor and spatial-temporal correlations are can be easily extracted from the model. 7 CCRF are also fault tolerant and can provide predictions even when some of the observations are 8 missing. We applied several CCRF models on the problem of travel speed prediction in a range 9 between 10 and 60 minutes ahead, and evaluated them on loop detector data from a 5.71-mile section 10 of the I-94 highway in Minneapolis, MN. Several CCRF models, with increasing level of complexity, 11 are proposed in order to better assess performance of the method. When compared to the linear 12 regression model, the Mean Absolute Error was reduced by around 4{\%}. The results imply that 13 modeling spatial and temporal neighborhood in traffic data and combining various baseline predictors 14 under the CCRF framework can be beneficial. 15},

The HSR program is intended to provide jobs and support economic development, build a foundation for economic competitiveness, support interconnected livable communities, and promote energy efficiency and environmental quality. In this paper we examine one specific aspect of HSR's anticipated energy and environmental benefits: its potential to reduce CO 2 emissions compared to continued dependence on auto and air modes for intercity travel. Using projections for US travel to 2050 and experience from Europe (as well as US focused projects) of diversion to HSR, we consider the proposed plans for HSR in the US and account for changes in vehicles, fuels, CO2 emissions from travel, and demand levels for the competing auto and air modes through 2050 under two alternative projections of future travel conditions and levels. One scenario assumes trends-extended and a second assumes a "green revolution" with considerably lower levels of travel and emissions. We conclude that under either scenario, HSR would likely lead to a small ({\~{}}1{\%}) reduction of CO 2 emissions in the transportation sector compared with the original projections without HSR. The primary reason why the reductions in CO2 emissions are small is the small share of overall travel that is between major metro regions slated to be connected by HSR and in a range likely to shift to HSR.},

There is a significant need to access a wide array of data sources for freight modeling and analysis. However, current data sources are not always easily accessible even with the availability of the Internet. Among the reasons are differing user interfaces, unavailability of data type definition, data format incompatibility, and inability to assess the scope of data conveniently. The repository developed in this study, the California Freight Data Repository, is a user-centered online tool designed from a systems perspective with several objectives. First, it facilitates convenient access, standardized interface, and a centralized location for obtaining freight data. Data dictionaries and lookup tables are provided for each data source to allow users to understand the scope of the data source and to give a clear definition of terms found in the data. A quality assessment summary is also provided to inform users of the strengths and limitations associated with each data source. Second, the repository is equipped with several geographic information system-based visualization tools intended to allow users to perform preliminary evaluation of data to determine their suitability for specific modeling or analysis needs. Third, the repository is designed with a customized search engine to retrieve web resources specifically associated with freight modeling and analysis. This paper presents the metadata architecture used for identifying data sources, the assessment framework used to evaluate selected data sources, and the system and interface design of the California Freight Data Repository.

These functions, such as the Bureau of Public Roads (BPR) or 4 Conical functions, have parameters that allow the analyst to calibrate the model to more accurately reflect 5 the route choice behavior in a given urban area. The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) provides default 6 parameters for these functions based on the road classification.

Past field experiments and simulations suggest that energy information feedback to drivers could have spared 10{\%} to 25{\%} of those gallons. However, the theoretical underpinnings of past experiments have primarily been ad hoc, with application of their results limited to specific conditions of the experiment and feedback design. More rigorous behavioral theory would allow researchers to account for more variation in driver response to feedback, create testable hypotheses about the effectiveness of current systems, and provide a basis for designing more-effective systems. This paper presents drivers' responses to energy feedback in a field test involving 98 participants from 43 households in California and compares the results with the concepts that underlie the theory of planned behavior and the extended model of goal-directed behavior. About 40{\%} of participants reported more economical driving behaviors after viewing the feedback; estimation of actual changes in fuel use is left for future research. After viewing real-time energy information, numerous drivers reported setting goals, having emotional reactions, and creating new driving behaviors. Distraction from the primary driving task was a persistent problem for some drivers. Web-accessible information was not as motivating to participants. Finally, the study finds evidence of correspondence between theoretical behavioral factors and drivers' responses.},

abstract = {Itemized response to reviews' comments (Paper {\#} 11-3725) Wu and Nie General response: The paper has been restructured and rewritten according to reviewers' comments. The main changes are summarized as follows:  This revision removes all contents related to higher-order stochastic dominance, because one reviewer pointed out that it not only creates a diversion but also is not new. Accordingly, the title of the paper is changed to " Application of Discrete Fourier Transform in Finding Reliable Shortest Paths " .  The convolution method based on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is substantially expanded, as well as the corresponding numerical experiments. Most numerical results presented in the revised paper are new.  The primary motivation of the revised paper is to examine, in the context of finding reliable a priori shortest paths, how the DFT-based convolution methods can be properly implemented and how they are compared with the non-DFT-based methods.  We have explored several implementations of the DFT-based convolution and conducted comprehensive numerical experiments to compare the performance of these implementations with that of the non-DFT-based convolution method. Our main finding is that the DFT-based convolution methods are not as computationally competitive as their non-DFT-based counterpart. REVIEWER 1 This paper is a follow-up paper after Nie and Wu (2009). It shows that the second-order stochastic dominance (SSD) rule can improve the computational performance while maintaining satisfactory solution quality. Meanwhile, this heuristic guarantees that all the generated paths are FSD-admissible. This paper also develops a convolution method based on Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), which is difficult to implement but with good theoretical complexity (but not computationally as good). The computational tests show that the direct convolution method provides satisfactory performance. Comments In Table 1, it seems that consolidation improves solution quality (decreases average errors) for 10-link path when L = 100, 500, which is against the general case. Please interpret. Response: Thanks for pointing out this interesting irregularity that we have missed. We have revised the manuscript to highlight the phenomenon, although we could not come up with a " theory " to explain it. Specifically, the following footnote is added. " Interestingly, for the 10-link path, where L= 100, 500, consolidation led to slightly smaller average errors. The mechanism that leads to this seemingly counter-intuitive result remains unclear. However, we note that these incidents are likely to have low occurrence and insignificant consequences. " TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

Determining the DHV is an easy task when hourly volumes are available for every hour in a year, which requires permanent counters to count and store traffic counts information. However, this becomes a challenging issue when part of the data is missing as a result of many reasons, such as construction activities or hardware failure. Another challenge is estimating the DHV for portable counters where traffic is recorded for a short period of time, usually for 24-72 hours. In this paper, a research is performed to develop a statewide model to predict the DHV for roadway facilities for the State of Florida using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The model predicts the DHV for roadways by facilitating Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT), number of lanes, and roadway functional classification as inputs. Observed AADT and DHV for the years of 1998-2007, along with roadway characteristics are used to develop the ANN model. The developed ANN model is further tested on 2008 data. Results show that the model is capable of predicting highly accurate and reliable DHV estimates.},

abstract = {This paper describes design features of several different regional activity-based models (ABMs) that share the coordinated travel-regional activity modeling platform (CT-RAMP) design and software platform. The CTRAMP models are characterized by features such as a full simulation of travel decisions for discrete households and persons, explicit tracking of time in half-hourly increments, the use of time constraints on the generation of travel, and explicitly modeled intrahousehold interactions across a range of activity and travel dimensions. These important features allow for greater behavioral realism in representing the response to numerous transportation policies. Each implementation of the CT-RAMP system, as for many ABM systems used in practice over the years, shares certain common features with others. However, each implementation is tailored to address specific regional conditions and includes additional advanced features to provide increased policy sensitivity and greater behavioral realism. These features are explained in the paper and analyzed in the context of model applications for different transportation projects and policies. Some of these features stem from ongoing intensive research and development in the field, including cross-pollination of ideas between the CT-RAMP family and other ABMs developed elsewhere, but many other features are unique and were driven by practical needs. The main conclusion of this paper is that it is too early to establish a completely generic and standard approach to an ABM design in practice. The evolution of features in ABMs still continues and is driven by theoretical achievements in behavior research and practical considerations.},

However, existing DTA techniques require 3 extremely high computational resources and time to provide a meaningful solution and an 4 acceptable convergence. One way to decrease the required computational resources and time is 5 by providing the DTA model with an initial set of feasible paths and flows (warm-start solution). 6 This paper introduces the concept of static warm-start procedures to expedite the convergence of 7 DTA methodologies. The proposed techniques are based on the solution of static traffic 8 assignment models for an equivalent static network. Approaches differ in the way in which an 9 initial path set and the corresponding dynamic flows are derived from the solution of a static UE 10 model. The warm-start solution is used to replace the initialization steps of a CTM-based DTA 11 model at a much lower computational costs. The warm-start techniques were tested on two real 12 networks, Sioux Falls and Anaheim. The overall trends, which are expected to be similar for 13 different DTA implementations, are very encouraging. Initial gaps two times smaller than the 14 gap produced by a typical initialization of the DTA model in 2{\%} of the time were observed, 15 along with considerably lower gaps at convergence. This suggests that warm start solution 16 approaches are feasible, and may lead to better and faster solutions for large networks, which is a 17 crucial step towards facilitating the utilization of DTA models by MPOs.},

This heuristic algorithm can achieve near-optimal signal timing when all simultaneous requests are considered and can be visualized in a phase-time diagram. First, the problem with the control of multiple priority traffic signals is transformed into a network cut problem that is polynomial solvable under some reasonable assumptions. Second, a phase-time diagram is presented to visualize and evaluate priority delay given a signal plan and a collection of priority request arrival times. Microscopic traffic simulation is used to compare the heuristic with the state-of-the-practice algorithms for transit signal priority. The proposed heuristic algorithm could reduce average bus delay in congested conditions by about 50{\%}, especially with a high frequency of conflicting priority requests.},

abstract = {This paper develops a combined equilibrium model for the simultaneous prediction of destination and route choices facing the suburban or rural automobile travelers. Destination choice is given by a dogit model, in order to take into account travel behavior of both compulsory (work) and discretionary (non-work) trips. Using stochastic user equilibrium principle, the logit-based route choice model was employed to develop route flows between each origin-destination (O-D) pair. The natural logarithm of the denominator of the logit route choice model (i.e., logsum) was computed and fed back into the destination choice step. Under this iterative process, destination choice of discretionary trips would respond to changing travel cost conditions, while that of compulsory trips would remain to be fixed in the study time period. The proposed combined destination and route choice (CDR) model can itself be reformulated as an equivalent convex programming problem with linear constraints, a great advantage from the computational aspects. The CDR model was applied empirically to a county-level network in New Jersey. The results encourage further applications of the CDR model to large-scale networks.},

Our previous study has unveiled an avoidance phenomenon, where demand in areas near the bridge drastically drops following collapse and gradually recovers to pre-collapse demands. Given the observation of largely underutilized sections of network, it is proposed that the tragedy generated a perceived travel cost to discourage commuters from using these sections. Calculated by solving a mathematical programming problem, the perceived costs on cordon lines after the I-35W Bridge collapse are found to be best described as an exponential decay cost curve. After reinstituting this calibrated cost curve into a mesoscopic traffic simulator, the simulated demands into the discouraged areas are generated within acceptable limits of the observed demands on a week-by-week basis. The proposed model is applicable to both practitioners and researchers in traffic-related fields by providing an understanding of how traffic dynamics will evolve after a long-term, unexpected network disruption.},

abstract = {When a road or driveway intersects a highway with certain restrictive features (bridge rail, culvert, etc.), it is difficult to fit the proper guardrail length (transition, length-of-need guardrail, and end treatment) along the primary roadway. Site constraints such as private driveways, state roads, and parish or county roads may intersect the primary road and prohibit the placement of a properly designed guardrail of the length needed. In these cases, the alternatives are to shorten the designed guardrail length, to relocate the constraint that is blocking placement of the guardrail, and to provide a curved or T-intersection guardrail design. This curved guardrail system is usually known as a short-radius guardrail. This paper investigated the performance of previously tested short-radius guardrail systems to determine whether some of those guardrail systems met NCHRP Report 350 Test Level 2 (TL-2) evaluation criteria. A system designed and tested for Yuma County, Arizona, was adapted as the basis for developing a short-radius guardrail system that satisfies NCHRP Report 350 TL-2 criteria. From an engineering review of previous designs, a recommended short-radius guardrail system that satisfied NCHRP Report 350 TL-2 conditions was developed. The nose section of this system consists of a 3.82-m (12 1/2-ft) curved W-beam segment that has a 2.44-m (8-ft) radius. This curved section is mounted on breakaway controlled-release terminal posts.},

We consider that the probability distribution of uncertain demands is unknown, so classical stochastic programming techniques are not applicable. Instead, uncertain demands are assumed to be bounded by a prescribed uncertainty set, and a robust optimization approach is adopted to address this problem. The objective is to minimize the total network travel time under the worst-case scenario defined by a pre-determined demand uncertainty set. We formulate the robust counterpart optimization problem of SODTA for a general uncertainty set, and show that solving the robust SODTA (RSODTA) problem is not more difficult than solving the deterministic SODTA problem for some specific types of uncertainty set, such as convex hull, box, and ellipsoidal. Moreover, a column generation-based algorithmic framework that embeds a scaled gradient projection algorithm is proposed to solve the SODTA problem. Numerical experiments were conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm and to examine the impact of different types of demand uncertainty set on solution quality.},

abstract = {Word Count: 6076 words + 6 figures + 3 tables = 8326 words Abstract In investigating transit passenger behavior, the resolution of collected data has reached the level of each individual traveler as fare and data collection technology has been developed. This paper investigates the use of these data to estimate passenger origins and destinations, at the level of individual stops. However, to complete each passenger trip chain on a specific day, we still need some estimate of passengers' alighting stops, because of lack of information from the fare collection system. Automated fare collection (AFC) and automated vehicle location (AVL) systems are the inputs to the estimation. Instead of using typical AVL data, we propose two models to estimate the alighting stop, considering passenger trip-chaining using AFC data, transit schedule data (Google's General Transit Feed Specification, GTFS), and Automated Passenger Counter (APC) data. We validate the model by comparing the output to APC data with vehicle location (APC/VL) data and perform sensitivity analyses on several parameters in the models. In the proposed models, in order to detect the transfer trips, we propose a sub-model which takes into account the effect of service headway in addition to some typical transfer time thresholds. Another contribution in this study is the relative relaxation of the search in finding the boarding stops, which enables our alternative algorithm to detect and fix possible errors in identifying the boarding stop for a transaction. As results, we provide algorithms for the proposed models and sensitivity analysis for several predefined scenarios. Our results are based on data and observed bus passenger behavior in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.},

abstract = {Accidents between right-turning vehicles and pedestrians were analyzed in terms of driver visual conditions, driving behavior and driver attributes, using traffic accident data of 2005-2006 in Japan. The human factor most responsible for right-turning vehicle accidents involving pedestrians is the driver's delay in recognizing the pedestrian. To avoid such accidents, it is important to make pedestrians more visible to drivers. In Japan, where drivers drive on the left-hand side of the road, such accidents in daytime mostly involve pedestrians who are crossing the road from the left side of the vehicle; such accidents at night mostly involve pedestrians who are crossing the road from the right side of the vehicle. When the visual conditions experienced by drivers are poor, accidents involving pedestrians crossing from the right side of the vehicle accounted for a high proportion of all accidents between right-turning vehicle and pedestrians. Such poor visual conditions tend to be associated with high driving speed just before the accident, with visual obstructions, such as road accessories, that hide pedestrians from the driver, and with wide four-lane roads. Logistic regression analysis using the crossing directions of the pedestrian as the dependent variables showed that the share of accidents by the direction of the pedestrian crossing the road in accidents between pedestrians and right-turning vehicles depended on the road traffic environment rather than on the driver attributes. In addition, it was proved that pedestrians crossing the road from the right side of a right-turning vehicle are particularly difficult to recognize on rainy evenings.},

The convergence of materials—the main focus of this paper—is comprised of a highly heterogeneous flow of goods, ranging from supplies of critical importance to the response process, to large influxes of low-priority goods that clog the supply chains and entry points to the area. The negative impacts of the latter are substantial as these low priority goods, if left unchecked, could hamper the flow of critical supplies; otherwise requiring the allocation of resources to manage them, which are distracted from other more critical tasks. Regrettably, in spite of its importance, material convergence is an understudied topic. This is a major issue because not much is known about the volume of material convergence that could be expected after a disaster, which makes it difficult for relief agencies to prepare for their arrival. This paper contributes to the study of this subject through the econometric estimation of models that attempt to explain it as a function of the socio-economic characteristics of the donors. Models like the ones in the paper could be used to estimate the potential material convergence generated after a disaster. The models are estimated using a database of donations made in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, which was created by post-processing media articles. The models show that donations have a systematic relation with the donors' socioeconomic characteristics. In general, donations have a positive relation with income, education, number of married individuals, total population and household density; and a negative relation with unemployment, number of unmarried individuals, and family size. The models indicate that the value of monetary donations increases with the distance from the donor to the impacted site; while the value of in-kind donations decreases with distance. This reflects the role played by transportation costs that deter donors located farther away from sending large volumes of physical goods.},

abstract = {This paper investigates transit bus emissions in the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, by linking the results of a microsimulation transit assignment model, MILATRAS (microsimulation learning-based approach to transit assignment), with emission factors derived from Mobile6.2C. Emissions were estimated at the level of individual buses during idling conditions at bus stops and on roadway links between stops during the morning peak period. The busiest routes were associated with the highest total emissions as a result of a combination of high ridership and lower speeds; this association confirmed the common wisdom that newer, low-emitting buses should be first allocated to these routes. The highest dwell emissions occurred at intermodal transfer stations (bus to subway and vice versa). On a passenger kilometer basis, the highest-emitting routes were not the busiest, but rather were those with the lowest ridership. In fact, the highest emissions per passenger kilometer were associated with the Airport Rocket, a route that provided service to the airport and was characterized by low ridership in the morning peak period. On average, bus trips in Toronto were about three times more fuel efficient than were private car trips and created 20 times less carbon monoxide pollution. The effects of changing fuel types and fleet age on transit bus emissions were assessed. Implications for bus operations are discussed relative to fleet allocation to minimize total emissions.},

The proposed methodology can simultaneously and explicitly deal with changes and variations. The empirical analysis indicates that over time, travel time expenditures become more dependent on situational attributes than on individual or household attributes; such dependence implies that travel time expenditures change toward diversification and that longer periods of behavioral observation to describe people's travel time expenditures become more important. The results also imply that understanding of the dynamic aspects of behavior is still important and remains a challenging issue to be revisited, not only for improving forecasting models but also for reconsidering the benefits from investment in transportation infrastructure.},

abstract = {1 Congested freeway interchanges normally suffer from the spillback of off-ramp and on-2 ramp queues. The traffic signals around a congested interchange could also experience link-3 blockage and lane-blockage problems. To improve the overall system performance around an 4 interchange, it is essential to consider both freeway and arterial performance when optimizing 5 signal timings. To analyze the aforementioned problems, this study extends the Cell-6 Transmission concept and proposes a set of new formulations to capture the traffic dynamic with 7 link-blockage, lane-blockage, and ramp spillback. Based on these formulations, this study then 8 proposes an integrated control optimization model for interchanges, along with a solution method 9 based on a Genetic Algorithm (GA). To demonstrate the model's performance, this study 10 provides a case study with different traffic scenarios for the interchange connecting Georgia 11 Avenue (MD 97) and the Capital Beltway (I495) in Silver Spring, Maryland. The resulting signal 12 timings are compared with those from Transyt-7F (release 10). For fair comparison, this study 13 employs CORSIM, a third-party simulation package, as the performance evaluator. The results 14 indicate that the proposed model is promising and can improve both freeway and arterial 15 performance. 16 17},

Accessibility measures and population density are introduced in the propensity regression models to account for the impact of spatial characteristics around school locations and to identify the spatial distribution of behavioral patterns. The results from the models are presented as maps combining the impacts of all the significant spatial variables to display the spatial patterns of behavior and intrahousehold interaction. These patterns can identify and pinpoint the impact of barriers, with the paper offering the example of the negative impact of a park area in the middle of the city of Los Angeles, California, on children's independent and active commutes to school. Similarly, barriers create significantly different intrahousehold interaction patterns at different locations in the region. The results of this study show that an opportunity exists to expand the micro-analysis to a more comprehensive treatment of travel behavior in space and to contribute to the development of models integrating land use and transportation.},

This study hypothesizes that one-size-fits-all 5 performance measures cannot presumably be imposed by the Federal Government to meet 6 ISTEA requirements on a large variety of MPOs, which are operating in very different 7 contextual conditions. The MPOs operating in small-and medium-sized communities could have 8 vastly different mandates and public needs than the MPOs serving relatively larger populations. 9 By drawing on data from a September 2009 General Accountability Office (GAO) survey of all 10 381 MPOs in the United States, with an 86{\%} response rate, this study examines whether the 11 contextual complexity and collaborative and technical capacity of an MPO influences the 12 selection of which performance measures are prioritized and which are perceived to be effective. 13 To explain the performance measure prioritization variability, this study presents the results from 14 thirty binomial logistic regression models that test the effects of 25 variables constructed for 15 contextual complexity, collaborative capacity, administrative structure, technical capacity and 16 other capacity challenges on the perceived prioritization of performance measures.

In order to judge which factor(s) should be taken into consideration when facing a specific pedestrian traffic context for fire safety analysis, it is essential to differentiate the impacts of different factors from each other. This paper aims to develop a method to separate the impacts on pedestrian traffic among different factors. Focusing on an individual pedestrian traffic indicatorwalking speed, three important human factors, i.e., gender, age and luggage-carrying were selected to investigate their respective impacts on walking speed. Through video observation in a subway station in Shanghai, nearly 1000 walking speed samples were obtained. These samples include 22 combinations of different levels of age, gender and luggage-carrying. By statistical analysis the impacts of age, gender, and luggage-carrying on walking speed were revealed separately. It is found that except for older pedestrians, males walk faster than females by 57{\%}. Middle-aged pedestrians walk slower than the young by 68{\%}, and older pedestrians walk slower than the young by 1824{\%}. Compared with no luggage, small luggage only reduces mean walking speed by 23{\%}. For medium luggage, large luggage and trolley cases, the decline rates of walking speeds were 58{\%}, 1014{\%}, and 38{\%}, respectively. Research results suggest that special attention and appropriate adjustments such as the modification of evacuation time, speed and capacity of pedestrian flow, should be paid for fire safety analysis in pedestrian traffic sites with noticeable amount of older pedestrians and pedestrians carrying large luggage.},

abstract = {In scheduling and delivering highway projects, a transportation organization may experience substantial cost impacts due to project pipeline uncertainties. These uncertainties include variations in available revenue, inflation, project scope creep, and legal or environmental issues. Managing these risks is now possible by employing a technique that involves dynamic simulation of the project pipeline. This technique enables the modeling of cost factors for projects being planned in the midst of pipeline uncertainties. The objective of this paper is to describe this project pipeline risk management approach. This targeted approach is needed because the cost and performance impacts of not dealing with funding and other pipeline uncertainties is estimated to be between 4 and 10{\%} of an overall paving budget. For example, if there are not enough projects in the pipeline, available stimulus funding may be used ineffectively. There may also be " hurry up " costs of accelerated design. However, if there are too many projects " on the shelf " there may be holding costs due to lost permits, unneeded right-of-way acquisitions, redesign and development, and non-optimum, obsolete projects. Solving this problem begins by quantifying potential cost and performance impacts related to project pipeline uncertainties. Using dynamic simulation, various scenarios can be analyzed by varying the number of projects in the pipeline and the mix of project types (preservation versus major rehabilitation). With this process, an organization can determine the optimum number and type of projects to load and maintain " on the shelf " . This will maximize the performance of highway projects with available funding, and minimize the cost impacts.},

abstract = {Traffic flow models have an irreplaceable role in the design and evaluation of variable speed limit (VSL) controllers. All the existing models for incorporating effects of VSL are based on modifica-tions of the steady state fundamental diagram. In this paper, we propose a new model derived from driver behaviors in case of VSL control. The proposed model is validated using simulated data of microscopic models (VISSIM) and is compared to an existing macroscopic model modified to ac-count for VSL. It is shown that the proposed model has more accurate descriptions of the transient effects of VSL than the existing model which has only take into account the steady state effects of speed control inputs. 1. INTRODUCTION The use of variable speed limits (VSL) along highway lanes in an effort to control traffic flow is a technique that has been around for some time. It has been implemented in various parts of Europe and has been studied by several researchers during the recent years. Traffic flow models have an irreplaceable role in the process of design and evaluate speed controllers. For microscopic traffic simulators, variable speed limits could be modeled as speed commands communicated to vehicles directly. However, continuum flow models, which are usually adopted for traffic control design due to their advantages in analysis and computation, were developed in case of no VSL control. These models, if used for VSL design and simulation, need to be modified to incorporate the effects of VSLs. Changing the speed limit for a freeway segment from 110 km/h to 90 km/h for a relatively long time, such as hours or days, results in changes of the fundamental diagram, which is a steady state relationship of density, flow and speed Papageorgiou et al. (1). Based on the aforementioned fact, all the existing research work modified this equilibrium flow-density curve to model the effects of variable speed limits. One way of fundamental diagram modification was to scale the parameters of the curve, such as the free flow speed and the critical density, by the ratio of imposed VSL to the original speed limit (2–8). Another modification of the curve is to replace steady state speed by the minimum of imposed VSL and that from the original curve, which was propose in Hegyi et al. (9), and adopted in (10–12). A third modification (13, 14) is to replace the curve by the speed commands. All the existing VSL models have only considered the effects of VSL on the steady state speed values and ignored the transient effects. Dynamic variable speed limits are designed to control transient effects of shock waves to achieve a smoother traffic flow. Therefore, to model the transient effects of VSL as accurately as possible is the key to the design and analysis of dynamic variable speed limits. (In this paper, dynamic VSLs are defined as those change in a short period, such as minutes. We differentiate dynamic VSLs from VSLs imposed for a longer term, such as VSLs for work zones, VSLs for bad weather and road conditions.) In this paper, we propose a new model for variable speed limits derived from driver be-havior when variable speed limits are present. The second order flow model first proposed in Payne (15) was derived from driver behavior described by car following models in case of no VSL control. When VSL is present, drivers switch between the car following mode and the speed limit tracking mode subject to safety constraints. Therefore, we propose that the speed dynamic switch between the results from car following, which was presented in the original second order model, and the results from speed limit tracking. In Section 2, the proposed model is derived and presented for a freeway segment. In Section 3, simulation results of the proposed model and an existing model are compared with simulated speeds from a microscopic traffic simulator VISSIM. Finally, conclusions are given in Section 4. 2. MODELING VARIABLE SPEED LIMITS Continuum flow models describe traffic evolvement in terms of aggregated variables, i.e., flow, q, density, $\rho$, and speed, v. The LWR model by Lighthill and Whitham, Richards (16, 17) is the first continuum flow model proposed in the literature using the similarity between freeway traffic stream and fluid. The LWR model is composed of three equations,},

abstract = {146 as a traffic data probe; (b) provide customized (or personalized) tar-get speed and other guidance to vehicles; and (c) enable vehicles to receive detailed real-time driving status information from neighbor-ing vehicles, so that their driving can be closely coordinated to reduce the needed separation and the propagation of disturbances. With these opportunities, a new approach that can address the limitations of exist-ing applications will be possible. Therefore, it is prudent to develop and evaluate new applications for IntelliDrive and to investigate how much potential these new applications possess. The University of Virginia Center for Transportation Studies com-pleted one of the first studies to investigate the potential of IntelliDrive in improving freeway operations (2–4). One algorithm developed in this research was a lane changing advisory algorithm that advises selected main-line vehicles to make early lane changes to create more space within ramp merging areas, thereby reducing freeway merge conflict. The evaluation results demonstrated that, by providing lane changing advisories, freeway operations could be improved significantly. However, this algorithm was limited in that it used a fixed value as a safe gap. It considered neither the speeds of travel nor the characteristics (length, acceleration capabilities) of the vehicles involved in the lane change process. Given this background, in this paper, an enhanced IntelliDrive enabled lane changing advisory algorithm was developed by using variable gap sizes according to the speeds and the characteristics of vehicles—as opposed to a fixed safe gap used in the previous study— in determining a provision of advisories. Further, more detailed evaluations of this algorithm were conducted focusing on individual lanes and links within a merge area as well as emissions. Finally, drivers' compliance with advisories was analyzed to examine the sensitivity of the algorithm performance to the number of drivers who follow the advice. Following this introduction, equations of vehicle motion prepared for calculations of anticipated gaps are pre-sented. The enhanced IntelliDrive-enabled lane changing advisory algorithm is then introduced. The paper concludes with a summary of the evaluation results obtained from VISSIM simulations of a freeway network in Northern Virginia.},

At the same time, many transportation and urban planning organizations have adopted scenario planning approaches, not only to develop long-term strategy, but also—potentially—to build organizational capacity and strengthen organizational networks. Yet these latter supposed outcomes of scenario planning remain largely untested. In this study, we test a scenario planning's organizational impacts by examining its potential to encourage collaboration between participants. Specifically, we analyze how one scenario planning process, undertaken with stakeholders around the issue of urban revitalization in Portugal, affects participants' propensity for future collaboration. Using a pre-/post-test survey, we attempt to measure change in participants' perceptions and understandings with respect to factors that lead to collaboration. The results suggest that the process may have increased participants' propensity to collaborate, primarily by strengthening inter-agency networks. However, the effects on participants' understanding of relevant issues and context remain inconclusive. Only through further empirical research, including longer-term studies of individual and organizational effects, can we better reveal the degree to which scenario planning truly increases intra-and inter-organizational collaborative transportation and urban planning. INTRODUCTION Public policy experts widely recognize the need for integrated policies that coordinate action across sectors and across space (1,2). Policies to manage urban development at the metropolitan scale demand an especially high degree of coordination. However, in the not uncommon situation where government consists of numerous fragmented agencies—as is the case in Portugal—the task of integration between transport and urban development encounters significant obstacles (3,4). The traditional division between land use and transportation sectors may be the most notorious, but similar splits exist between long-term and short-term planning, between neighboring jurisdictions, between policy-makers and technical analysts, and between planners and other disciplines. The ability of these actors to produce coordinated policies—or, at a more demanding level, integrated policies—depends on their ability to work together at an organizational and individual level. In other words, collaboration does not guarantee coordinated policy, but it is a prerequisite. Many authors imply that governments can simply mandate coordination and integration (5), but top-down requirements do not necessarily produce coordinated policies, especially in the absence of other supporting conditions. Faced with legal mandates to coordinate their actions, agencies sometimes comply, but sometimes they simply go through the motions without engaging in real collaboration. Such behavior has been observed both in Portuguese planning (6,7) and in other policy contexts (8). The growing literature on policy integration in transportation and land use has made considerable headway in justifying the need for integration and identifying practical barriers (3,5,4). Nonetheless, the emphasis on barriers has at least partly diverted attention away from the means by which integration actually occurs. Instead of dwelling on barriers, we suggest looking for ways in which collaboration can emerge and thus provide a possible pathway toward integration. Scenario planning—potentially— offers one such pathway. In this paper we examine the potential of scenario planning to provide a path toward coordination, particularly via its ability (or inability) to build inter-organizational relationships and foster organizational learning. Using survey methods, we investigate the effects of a scenario planning process conducted with Portuguese stakeholders. Specifically, we examine whether the process increases the participants' propensity for future collaboration. We begin with a review of scenario planning as a transformative activity, and then explain why it may theoretically lead to collaboration. Next, we present the survey methodology and results. We then discuss implications for scenario planning, concluding with recommendations for future research.},

On the other hand, numerous studies emphasized the impact of built environment on travel behavior. Yet, the effect of the built environment in changing travel behavior becomes ambiguous when attitudes are brought in. In this study, we investigate the confluence of attitude, built environment, and mode switching behavior. We used the Puget Sound Panel Dataset to obtain a sample of subjects who either used the same mode (SOV or carpool) in two waves or switched from one mode to another. We also obtained variables measuring subjects' attitudes in both waves as well as changes in the built environment. Two Structural Equations Models were estimated. We find evidence supporting both directions in the attitude and behavior relationship—in particular, the attitude-to-behavior link is supported in the SOV to carpool model and the reverse link is found in the carpool to SOV model. The built environment effect varies with the behavioral context—in the carpool to SOV model, the built environment is found to influence attitudes via changing behavior; in the SOV to carpool model, the built environment effect is insignificant. The study results suggest different policies to be developed to encourage carpooling over SOV.},

Second is to fill the void in literature on comparison 13 between MOVES and MOBILE at the regional level through a real world case-study. 14 Using Cook County in Illinois, emission estimates of carbon-dioxide (CO 2) and Nitrogen 15 Oxide (NO x) are compared between the latest versions of both models. For this purpose, 16 consistent local specific input data is incorporated into the models. The last objective is to 17 provide practitioners and MPOs insights on input data requirements for MOVES to 18 facilitate their transition from MOBILE to MOVES in the near future.},

abstract = {The primary objective of this paper is to describe how site selection effects can influence the safety effectiveness of treatments. More specifically, the goal is to quantify the bias for the safety effectiveness of a treatment as a function of different entry criteria as well as other factors associated with crash data, and propose a new method to minimize this bias when a control group is not available. The study objective was accomplished using simulated data. The proposed method documented in this paper was compared to the four most common types of before-after studies: the Na{\"{i}}ve, using a control group (CG), the empirical Bayes (EB) method based on the method of moment (EB(MM)), and the EB method based on a control group (EB(CG)). Five scenarios were examined: a direct comparison of the methods, different dispersion parameter values of the Negative Binomial model, different sample sizes, different values of the index of safety effectiveness ($\theta$), and different levels of uncertainty associated with the index. Based on the simulated scenarios (also supported theoretically), the study results showed that higher entry criteria, larger values of the safety effectiveness, and smaller dispersion parameter values will cause a larger selection bias. Furthermore, among all methods evaluated, the Na{\"{i}}ve and the EB(MM) methods are both significantly affected by the selection bias. Using a control group, or the EB(CG), can mutually eliminate the site selection bias, as long as the characteristics of the control group (truncated data for the CG method or the non-truncated sample population for the EB(CG) method) are exactly the same as for the treatment group. In practice, finding datasets for the control group with the exact same characteristics as for the treatment group may not always be feasible. To overcome this problem, the method proposed in this study can be used to adjust the Na{\"{i}}ve estimator of the index of safety effectiveness, even when the mean and dispersion parameter are not properly estimated.},

We ignore the potential positive impacts of these restrictions, and only concentrate our attention on the impacts of these restrictions on trade. A disaggregated itinerary choice analysis is undertaken for three of the most used itineraries connecting major locations in the West Bank and Israel: Jenin-Ramallah, Jenin-Haifa and Ramallah-Ashdod. We consider two political scenarios, " good " time and " bad " time and two alternative routes on each itinerary, denoted by "safe" and "risky". The " good " and " bad " months are identified from data using latent clustering techniques. The safe alternative on each itinerary is the route with a low variability of travel times, whereas the risky route is characterized by high variability of travel times. This last option will be typically chosen by the least risk averse (or risk-loving) agents. Using a numerical experiment, calibrated on data collected through on-field interviews, we estimate that the politically unstable situation increases by 50{\%} the average travel time on " safe " routes and almost doubles average travel times on risky routes. Finally, the estimated total cost in bad times compared to good times for the entire economy, given the percentage of transport services in the West Bank Gross Domestic Product, amounts to 28{\%} of the total GDP for the year 2009.},

abstract = {1 The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) recently developed a BRT Strategic Plan to 2 establish a framework for BRT implementation. Stevens Creek Boulevard, an important east-west 3 thoroughfare linking San Jose with Cupertino to the west, was one of three corridors selected for BRT 4 service. To ensure the operating and ridership objectives along the Stevens Creek corridor, BRT must 5 maintain adequate travel speeds and provide a convenient station location along the Valley Fair segment 6 west of Downtown San Jose. 7 8 Meeting these objectives will be a challenge because the segment is highly congested and right-of-way 9 constrained. Major shopping centers, existing land uses, and an interstate freeway interchange are all 10 factors that contribute to the operational challenges along the Valley Fair segment. These factors also 11 limit any roadway widening and reconfiguration required to provide sufficient space for dedicated BRT 12 lanes and station platforms. To provide some form of transit priority and a convenient BRT station at 13 Valley Fair, a single reversible bus lane is proposed. 14 15 This paper discusses the feasibility of a single reversible lane and key elements that led to a preferred 16 configuration and operating plan. A range of options are evaluated including various station 17 configurations and operating strategies. A microsimulation analysis of the options shows that a single 18 reversible lane can generate significant operating benefits for BRT, while not significantly impacting 19 mixed flow traffic. This paper and its results should encourage cities to consider single-lane reversible 20 busways along constrained segments as part of a strategy to implement premium BRT service.},

The results suggested that spatial mismatch still existed and that it continued to increase over time. However, the spatial pattern of mismatch had changed. Low-income job seekers were more disadvantaged in the inner-ring suburbs, mainly because of the lag in the residential suburbanization of low-income job seekers.

abstract = {Travel time data have been notoriously difficult to collect. Although recent advances have made the task easier with license plate matching, toll tag data and aggregate global positioning system (GPS) data from private vendors, many entities seek to further simplify the task by exploiting short range communication protocols, such as Bluetooth. Bluetooth travel time estimates are now being considered to feed a variety of applications, such as user information systems. As Bluetooth-based travel time data collection increases in popularity, investigating the errors that are characteristic of this detection type becomes more important. The issue of error on short corridors in particular is of interest, as the “zone to zone” nature of Bluetooth sensors implies that shorter corridors will have greater travel time errors. This study tests nine varying configurations of Bluetooth detectors on a 0.98 mile long segment. Three types of antennae and three different sensor arrangements are tested to determine the effects of these variables on travel time error. The collected travel time data is compared to license plate reader data, which, due to its relatively small, vehicle-only, detection zone is taken as the ground truth travel time. The results suggest that a larger detection zone is desirable, despite the apparent loss of accuracy, as the higher matching rates obtained by the system will improve sample size and reduce random error rates. A pair of Bluetooth detectors mounted on opposing sides of the roadway, (with a 7dBi antenna on one and a 9dBi antenna on the other) at each end of the corridor resulted in the significantly less error than other combinations of mounting locations and antennae. Findings of this study are helpful to transportation professionals attempting to understand the errors associated with the Bluetooth-based travel time data collection technology and configure the sensors to mitigate the errors},

abstract = {Elefteriadou, et al., TRB 2011 1 ABSTRACT 1 Ramp management is one of several functions performed to optimize traffic 2 operations along a freeway. Existing ramp metering algorithms have been shown to be 3 successful in increasing freeway throughput, and reduce overall travel time. Recent 4 research has shown that there is a correlation between the number of vehicles arriving in 5 clusters from the ramp and the probability of breakdown (i.e., beginning of congestion) at 6 the ramp merge. The objective of this research was to develop enhancements for ramp 7 metering strategies so that they can postpone the breakdown and reduce congestion at 8 freeway facilities with recurring congestion. 9 10 This research first developed a process for obtaining breakdown probability 11 models for existing critical ramps. Next, it proposed specific enhancements to existing 12 ramp metering algorithms which incorporate probability of breakdown models. Proposed 13 enhancements are presented for two algorithms: the Minnesota Stratified Ramp Metering 14 Algorithm (SZM), and the Ontario COMPASS algorithm. Simulation was used to 15 replicate these algorithms and evaluate the proposed enhancements. The results of these 16 experiments showed that the enhancements are effective in postponing congestion at the 17 two sites evaluated by 17-35 minutes. 18 19 INTRODUCTION 20 The Ramp Management and Control Handbook (RMCH, 1) defines ramp 21 metering as the use of a traffic signal at a ramp to control the rate at which vehicles enter 22 the freeway facility. The RMCH indicates that this technique allows for more consistent 23 flow operations by smoothing the flow of freeway traffic and allowing more efficient use 24 of the existing capacity. This statement is consistent with previous research which has 25 shown that vehicles that enter the freeway in platoons create turbulence, which often 26 leads to breakdown of the mainline traffic (2). The term 'breakdown' has been used to 27 describe the transition from relatively free-flowing traffic, at speeds in the vicinity of the 28 posted speed limit, to congestion, usually called stop-and-go traffic, but more generally 29 experienced as slow-and-go. 30 31 Recent research (3-7) has examined the conditions under which breakdown 32 occurs, and concluded that it does not occur deterministically under a given set of 33 volumes. This is contrary to the traditional traffic analysis methods (8), which assume 34 that traffic transitions to congested conditions when demand reaches a specific value, 35 labeled " capacity " . It has been shown (3-7, 9) that capacity varies widely on a daily basis 36 for the same facility and under the same geometric and traffic conditions. However, 37 ramp metering algorithms are based on the assumption that traffic operational 38 performance is deterministic, i.e., the capacity of a given facility has a specific value. The 39 objective of this research is to consider and expand on probability of breakdown concepts 40 in order to develop improved procedures for ramp metering strategies. The ultimate goal 41 is for these strategies to postpone the breakdown and reduce congestion at freeway 42 facilities with recurring congestion. 43 44},

abstract = {ABSTRCT 1 This paper develops theoretical delay models of protected left-turn operations at a pre-timed 2 signalized intersection under heavy traffic. When the through traffic demand is heavy, 3 residual queues from previous cycle may occur and elevate the probability of blockage to 4 left-turn bay, leading to an increase of left-turn delay. A probabilistic left-turn delay model 5 based on the queuing diagram is first proposed for a leading left-turn operation, taking into 6 account of the influence of residual queues and blockage by the through traffic. When the 7 left-turn demand becomes heavy, the left turns may spill back to block the through traffic, 8 resulting in adverse effects on through traffic delay. The through traffic delay is then modeled 9 probabilistically based on the analysis of left-turn bay spillback for a lagging protected left-10 turn operation. The left-turn delay models are validated through carefully designed simulation 11 studies using VISSIM, and the results are compared with those from the HCM delay model 12 that does not consider blockage or spillback situations. The proposed delay models can be 13 used to replace the uniform delay term in the HCM model for high demand situation when 14 the left-turn operation is affected by spillback and blockage conditions.},

abstract = {A network change is said to be irreversible if the initial network equilibrium cannot be restored by revoking the change. The phenomenon of irreversible network change has been observed in reality. To model this phenomenon, we develop a day-to-day dynamic model whose fixed point is a boundedly rational user equilibrium (BRUE) flow. Our BRUE based approach to modeling irreversible network change has two advantages over other methods based on Wardrop user equilibrium (UE) or stochastic user equilibrium (SUE). First, the existence of multiple network equilibria is necessary for modeling irreversible network change. Unlike UE or SUE, the BRUE multiple equilibria do not rely on non-separable link cost functions, which makes our model applicable to real-world large-scale networks, where well-calibrated non-separable link cost functions are generally not available. Second, travelers' boundedly rational behavior in route choice is explicitly considered in our model. The proposed model is applied to the Twin Cities network to model the flow evolution during the collapse and reopening of the I-35. W Bridge. The results show that our model can to a reasonable level reproduce the observed phenomenon of irreversible network change. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

We show that this also happens in Nairobi, Kenya, even though the the street network has limited connections and is crowded, not just with cars, but also with matatus (informal mass transit). The paper also shows how the capacity of Nairobi's streets compares to streets in cities with more homogeneous networks and vehicular traffic. The macroscopic approach provides an easily observable quantity (network flow) that quantifies the magnitude of congestion and can be used to predict how traffic delays will increase as demand continues to grow if nothing is done. The paper describes some of the traffic control strategies that are identified using the MFD, and how these and other policies (e.g., increasing intersection capacities, adding network connections) can be correctly implemented by measuring their effects using macroscopic methods. The paper describes a general macroscopic analysis method and identifies policies which cost ef-fectively improve conditions by managing vehicle accumulations or by changing the MFD associated with the network.},

Online ridematching systems are employing a range of new strategies to create " critical mass: " 1) regional and large employer partnerships, 2) financial incentives, 3) social networking to younger populations, and 4) real-time ridematching services that employ " smartphones " and automated ridematching software. Enhanced casual carpooling approaches, which focus on " meeting places, " are also being explored. Today, ridesharing represents approximately 8 to 11{\%} of the transportation modal share in Canada and the United States, respectively. There are approximately 613 ridematching programs in North America. Ridesharing's evolution can be categorized into five phases: 1) World War II car-sharing (or carpooling) clubs; 2) major responses to the 1970s energy crises; 3) early organized ridesharing schemes; 4) reliable ridesharing systems; and 5) technology-enabled ridematching. While ridesharing's future growth and direction are uncertain, the next decade is likely to include greater interoperability among services, technology integration, and stronger policy support. In light of growing concerns about climate change, congestion, and oil dependency, more research is needed to better understand ridesharing's impacts on infrastructure, congestion, and energy/emissions.},

Vaziri 2 ABSTRACT In this paper, trend of global petroleum trade distribution was analyzed and the sensitivity of global petroleum trade with respect to the import/export distance is investigated. The study covers the petroleum trade activity among 173 countries and over a period extending from year 1965 to 2005. Modeling petroleum spatial distribution as a cross-sectional analysis is based on gravity model of trade. The examined database consists of 13 variables grouped in four categories: commodity, geographical, economical and political characteristics. Two gravity models are developed and examined based on two global transportation networks: the traditional air distance network and an integrated sea and land multimodal transportation network. The multimodal transportation network, which is newly developed in this research, is shown to be more statistically significant in representing the petroleum trade distribution. Preliminary statistical analyses also revealed that distance between countries and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), are the major contributing factors impacting petroleum trade. As for elasticity of bilateral trade with respect to distance, our results suggest an increasing time trend for distance coefficient based on sensitivity analysis concept. Finally, Linear Programming (LP) model is applied to facilitate identifying possible relations between trade and transport distance, optimize the observed distribution during different years, and compare the total cost of petroleum transportation for the observed distribution and the optimal one. Comparison results for multimodal network revealed that the percentage of improvement has increased over time however observed petroleum distribution does not follow the optimal distribution over time. INTRODUCTION Petroleum trade has been one of the most strategic worldwide trades for the last decades. Half of total oil productions in the world are consumed by the transport sector to support the economic, military, strategic, social and political aspects of a society (1). The recent development of e-commerce, just-in-time delivery, globalization, and regional, interregional and international trade development has put further demand on the freight industry that is in turn heavily relying on oil. The cost of transport of petroleum has a significant effect on its net price. To reduce its transport cost, trade partners are expected to select the nearest demand and supply nodes. However, the effect of the transport distance on the petroleum trade is still not that clear as other geopolitical and economical factors can also play a major role too. Very little research attempts were made in the past to examine the role of transport distance in the petroleum trade. Recently, the role of the distance in the general trade sector is subject to many debates. It is argued that the importance of distance has declined over time with the decline of trade costs, including transport, information, tariff and communication costs (2). Still, most trade economists disagree with that. This paper tries to analyze the global petroleum trade distribution in two stages. First the effect of distance, as the transportation characteristic, on petroleum trade, as one of the most influential commodities in global trade is evaluated. This is followed by an optimization problem to determine possible relations between optimal international petroleum trade and transportation characteristics. The global petroleum trade flow is analyzed from 1965 to 2005. A multimodal transportation network is developed among 173 countries to examine the sensitivity of trade with respect to distance over time. This paper is organized as follows. The next section reviews the literature. After applying preliminary and correlation statistical analysis, modeling the status quo of petroleum distribution as a cross-sectional analysis based on gravity model of trade is appraised in continuation of this TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {5 Traditionally offset optimization for coordinated traffic signals is based upon manually collected 6 volume data on a " typical " day, which can not address the problem of field stochastic feature. 7 With the readily available archived traffic data nowadays, in this paper, we present a data-driven 8 approach to arterial offset optimization which accounts for traffic flow variations and the relation 9 between traffic signal changes and vehicle actuations is formulated. Instead of using average 10 traffic volume data, the inputs to the proposed optimization model are boundary volume scenarios, 11 turning percentages and statistical distributions of signal phase changes which are derived from a 12 high-resolution traffic database. Since queues formed by side-street traffic and residual queues 13 from through traffic are critical to the determination of signal offset, they are being considered in 14 the optimization model explicitly. The objective of this model is to minimize total delay for one 15 coordinated direction and at the same time take the performance of the other direction into 16 consideration. To test the performance of the optimized offsets, we implement the optimized 17 offset values to not only well calibrated VISSIM model but also real field controllers. Both results 18 show that the proposed model can significantly reduce travel delay of coordinated direction while 19 not deteriorating the other direction's performance. 20 21},

An associated coordination mechanism is 8 proposed to associate with the model to get feasible solutions. An example of applying this model to the case 9 of the feeder system in Jiading district during Expo 2010 Shanghai is presented, and whose results show that 10 the temporary feeder system can serve the Expo passengers with relative high level of service while not cause 11 evident degrade in regular bus service. 12},

abstract = {California passed landmark planning legislation, Senate Bill (S.B.) 375, in 2008, calling on the state's urban regions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through more efficient transportation and land use. During 2010, the California Air Resources Board worked with the state's 18 metropolitan planning organizations to define and adopt performance targets for emissions reductions in each region according to S.B. 375. This target-setting process represents the first systematic effort by a U.S. state to assess the impacts of existing regional transportation and land use plans on greenhouse gas emissions and to adopt specific, realizable alternative scenarios in furtherance of state climate policy goals. This paper considers the technical and political challenges of defining the performance targets across regions and agencies with different conditions and capabilities. The paper depicts the S.B. 375 target-setting process as inherently political and collaborative. The paper also presents analysis from the target-setting documentation. Scenarios modeled to achieve emissions reductions in California's largest urban regions indicate that the greatest benefits are possible through combining pricing and land use strategies. The findings will inform policy makers in other states who also seek to address climate change systematically through coordinated transportation and land use strategies.},

Advancements in screening device tech- nology have increased the ability to detect these threats; however, specifying the operational configurations of these devices in response to changes in the threat environment can become difficult. This article proposes to use Fisher information as a statistical measure for detecting changes in the threat environment. The perceived risk of passengers, according to prescreen- ing information and behavior analysis, is analyzed as the passengers sequentially enter the security checkpoint. The alarm responses from the devices used to detect threats are also analyzed to monitor significant changes in the frequency of threat items uncovered. The key results are that this information-based measure can be used within the Homeland Security Advisory System to indicate changes in threat conditions in real time, and provide the flexi- bility of security screening detection devices to responsively and automatically adapt opera- tional configurations to these changing threat conditions.},

While low-cost improvements for the highway 4 mode may include physical, operational, and regulatory actions, those for rail and deepwater 5 ports are predominantly operational and regulatory actions. The catalogs of improvement 6 actions developed from case studies indicate that low-cost improvements have been successfully 7 implemented in addressing freight mobility constraints and there is increased interest in the use 8 of these strategies. 9 10 INTRODUCTION 11 The freight transport system in the U.S. has evolved to serve not only the increasing domestic 12 freight demand but also an even higher increase in international freight movement. However, the 13 rate of growth in freight demand has outpaced the rate of transportation infrastructure capacity 14 expansion and maintenance funding levels. The ability of the freight transportation system to 15 support increasing capacity demand remains a challenge. 16 In discussing options to address the capacity issues of the freight transportation, there is 17 the need for greater understanding of the drivers of private and public sector decision makers to 18 want change, to be willing to pay for it, and to work together to maximize the return on 19 investment in terms of meeting their goals, both quantitative and qualitative. Given the 20 disparities of how each sector defines and measures success, it is important to consider shared, 21 cooperative project implementation to reconcile any conflicts between these values, (i.e., public 22 versus private, national versus local, and high cost versus low-cost improvements) focusing on 23 projects that use relatively low-cost operational strategies or technology innovations to address 24 capacity and mobility constraints. 25 This paper discuses the dimensions of the freight transportation system, defines freight 26 mobility constraints, and presents catalogs of low-cost improvement actions that have been 27 demonstrated to be effective in alleviating congestion and enhancing freight mobility. 28 Information presented in this paper is based on an recent National Cooperative Freight Research 29 Program (NCFRP) project (1) to define and describe the dimensions of the freight system and to 30 develop a methodology that private-and public-sector decision makers can use to identify, 31 categorize, and evaluate quickly implementable, low-cost capital, operational, regulatory, and 32 public policy actions focused on reducing system constraints. This paper focuses on freight 33 movement by the three predominant modes, highway, rail, and water. Freight movement by air 34 and pipeline are not included because segments of freight movement by these modes have 35 highway components. Therefore, some of the constraints to freight mobility by air and pipeline 36 are represented by constraints to highway movements. Also, the total volume of freight by these 37 two modes is much less than the volume of freight by each of the primary modes. 38 39 DIMENSIONS OF FREIGHT SYSTEM 40 To systematically address freight mobility constraints it is necessary to define the dimensions of 41 the freight transportation system. These dimensions are needed to characterize the entire freight 42 transportation system and allow for cross-modal comparison in terms of performance, 43 productivity, and prioritization of improvement actions. The dimensions of the freight 44 transportation system include the following key elements: 45 46 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Predicted travel time information is important to successful implementation of many Intelligent Transportation Systems. The artificial neural network (ANN) is one advance approach to freeway travel time prediction. However, one of the setbacks of ANN models is that many ANN topologies are developed following a " Black-box " approach, which is difficult to convey the internal workings of these models to transportation practitioners. Additionally, although input settings are one important factor that influences the ANN model performance, there are only a handful of studies focusing on the impacts of input information. In this study, we first provide some insights on how to logically use knowledge about typical traffic processes to make the " White-box " oriented development of a neural network topology. We then employ a reliable ensemble technique to analyze the spatial and temporal effects of input variables on the ANN prediction performances for a study segment on US-290 in Houston. The results have shown that speed and occupancy data could be used by themselves or jointly to achieve satisfactory performance while traffic volume cannot; better performance can also be achieved by using inputs from upstream, current and downstream segments, and/or using inputs from current and one or two time steps in the past. At last, we utilize the understandings learned above to develop a new ANN topology, the so called time-delayed state-space neural network (TDSSNN). By comparing with other popular neural networks, the TDSSNN shows above-average prediction accuracy and consistency. But more importantly, the model illustrates the possibility of building a White-box ANN model.},

abstract = {Automatic pavement distress segmentation is essential for automatic classification and evaluation of pavement conditions during maintenance. Improving the speed and accuracy of the many algorithms for image-based pavement crack segmentation remains a challenge. Although a dynamic programming-based (DP-based) algorithm is more accurate than other crack segmentation methods, its practical use is limited by the required long computation time. A fast algorithm for pavement crack segmentation needs to be developed with the use of DP and multiscale characterization of fundamental crack elements on connected components in grid cells. The proposed algorithm integrated the accuracy of DP and the high speed of grid cell and connected component analyses. Region-based nonuniform background illumination was removed, and the preprocessed image was divided into grid cells. Multiscale characterization of fundamental crack elements was conducted to differentiate the significant crack elements from the noncrack components on the basis of the connected component in the cells on multiple scales. The crack regions of interest were then accurately estimated through the most significant crack elements and fed into the DP-based crack segmentation with the probabilistic scoring function. The proposed algorithm was tested on a diverse set of pavement images, provided by the Georgia Department of Transportation, taken from I-75/85 under varying lighting conditions near Atlanta. A buffered Hausdorff measure was used to quantitatively evaluate the accuracy of the proposed crack segmentation algorithm. Experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm ran three times faster than the original DP-based method while providing the same accuracy. The proposed algorithm is promising for the practical generation of pavement crack maps.},

Very few researchers have considered ozone distributions and even those that do tend to apply parametric techniques. This study assesses ground-level ozone distributions at six locations in the UK and characterises the correlation of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and ozone at a roadside location. The distribution of ozone is investigated, applying Shapiro-Wilk test and graphical presentations. The histograms are right skewed and show maximum frequency at ozone mixing ratios from 0 to 5 ppb (particularly at urban centers and roadsides locations), which is probably caused by high levels of freshly produced NOx associated with road traffic. There is evidence that ground level ozone is not normally distributed (p-values {\textless} 0.05). NOx is a dominant sink for ozone at urban and roadside sites due to its ozone scavenging effects. Consistent with literature ozone is negatively correlated with NOx. The negative correlation is stronger at low NOx levels (up to approximately 80 ppb 24 hour mean, Spearman correlation coefficient R is '-0.72') and becomes weaker as NOx levels increase (over 80 ppb R value is '-0.53'). When NOx mixing ratios reach approximately 200 ppb or over the correlations become positive. This study investigates how the associations of ozone and NOx vary at different levels of their mixing ratios and suggests that due to the non-normal distribution of ozone, nonparametric statistics should be applied for ozone modelling. ? 2011 WIT Press.},

abstract = {Operational efficiency is a simple way of addressing nonproductive time of diesel-powered construction equipment that performs a construction activity and is defined as the ratio of nonidle activity time to total activity time including idle time. The effects of diesel equipment operational efficiency on total emissions for construction activities have not been fully established; thus a fundamental understanding of operational efficiency is needed to evaluate the effects on total pollutant emissions of diesel-powered construction equipment. This paper presents a methodology to assess the effects of equipment operational efficiency on the total pollutant emissions of construction equipment performing construction activities. This methodology estimates the percentage of additional pollutants emitted due to a reduced operational efficiency, based on the ratio of idle to nonidle emissions. Results for a case study of six bulldozers indicate that pollutant emissions, in addition to the minimum amount required to complete a specific quantity of work, increase as operational efficiency decreases. This conclusion allows the savings resulting from increased efficiency to be determined. Furthermore, additional pollutant emissions for a specified operational efficiency increase as the ratio of idle to nonidle emissions increases. The ratio of idle to nonidle emissions varies according to pollutant and is approximately 1:2 for hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide, 1:5 for nitrogen oxides, and 1:7 for particulate matter.},

The affluent 2 communities in metropolitan cities are situated close to economic activity, whereas the people in 3 need of public transport are situated on the periphery of the cities. This demographic structure is 4 opposite to that of developed countries and complicates both the provision of transport services and 5 the planning process thereof. Multi-Agent Transport Simulation (MATSim) has been identified as 6 an Agent-Based Simulation (ABS) approach that models individual travellers as autonomous en-7 tities to create large scale traffic simulations. The initial implementation of MATSim in the RSA 8 successfully simulated private vehicle trips between home and work in the province of Gauteng, 9 proving that there is enough data available to create a realistic multi-agent transport model. Ex-10 panding the initial implementation to further enhance the simulation accuracy requires the incor-11 poration of additional primary and secondary activities in the initial transport demand. There are 12 deficiencies in the data required to include these activities, necessitating certain assumptions in the 13 methodology. This paper reports on the process followed to include the additional activities, and 14 evaluates the demand generation process by comparing the simulated provincial traffic to that of 15 the initial implementation and to the actual traffic counts. The results substantiate that data defi-16 ciencies can be overcome through considering various scenarios made up of incomplete data and 17 critically evaluating its results.},

Nonwork travel behavior changes during the reconstruction were investigated with the use of data from two contemporaneous Internet surveys. More than half of the sample of 6,362 respondents made at least one studied change during the study period, including changes of route, activity location, time of day, day of an activity, and cancellation of an activity. First, the choice to make any nonwork travel change was modeled with binary probit (the any change model). Respondents were more likely to make nonwork travel changes when traffic conditions were worse than usual and less likely to do so when conditions were much better than usual. Women were more likely to make changes than men were. Those travelers who were not aware of any of the travel demand management measures designed to mitigate the impacts of the reconstruction were less likely to make nonwork changes. Next, the five individual nonwork changes were simultaneously modeled with multivariate probit. Again, women were more likely to make the individual changes studied (except route changes). The impacts of traffic conditions and commute characteristics were consistent with those in the any change model. Unobserved characteristics associated with the two temporal changes (day and time) were highly correlated, as were those associated with the two spatial changes (location and route). Unobserved influences on location, day, and time changes were highly correlated with those affecting activity cancellation.},

However, there were few studies on comprehensive evaluations of their different merging performance under the same geographical and traffic conditions. This study has employed the extensive simulation experiments to operate three merge control strategies, i.e., SEM(static early merge), SLM(static late merge), and DLM(dynamic late merge), and investigate their merging features under the various traffic conditions at the same work zone environment. The evaluation results have revealed their relative and distinctive properties, depending on traffic volumes and their fluctuations. Those outputs may be useful as a guideline in planning a proper merge control strategy for the highway work zone operations.},

abstract = {As the percentage of older people (65 years or older) rapidly increases within the population, it becomes more important to provide with innovative transportation alternatives that would help maintain their independence while also assuring the safety and comfort of other public transit users. As a result, public transit providers should examine and address pedestrian preferences and expectations. Changes in physical factors associated with ageing affect the ability of older pedestrians to function in the traffic environment. Deteriorating eye sight and balance affect walking speed and reaction times. Established pedestrian design and evaluation criteria might need revisiting to reflect current population composition. This paper explores the effects of older pedestrian proportion on flow. Future population proportions are explored based on present trends in population. A micro-simulation approach is employed in order to investigate the potential effects of their increased proportion in pedestrian flow and on the level-of-service (LOS) criteria used in planning and design of pedestrian-dominated facilities. Simulation results show that increased proportion of older pedestrians has the potential to shift LOS to a lower level. A shift from LOS C to D, D to E, and E to F are notable for the higher proportions.},

The study documents quantities and characteristics of door assistance needs of seniors and persons with disabilities. Categories of door assistance transport defined are: door-to-door, door-through-door and portal-to-portal. Quantitative findings reported on a countywide agency survey of 279 respondents. From a combined caseload of 3.9 million persons, these organizations reported a mean of 2{\%} of caseloads traveling daily to program sites. Although a mean of 40 percent of individuals were reported as needing some level of transportation assistance, perceptions of door assistance needs varied greatly by organization type. Public transit and non-transport provider agencies reported lowest median values, 12 to 14 percent of caseloads needing door-to-door assistance. Human services agencies reported a 40 percent median value in consumer need, this group also most likely to provide such service. Commercial providers reported highest levels at 80 percent. For door-through-door assistance greater agreement in need existed, averaging one-in-ten consumers. Policy implications suggest that with varying types of door assistance need identified, most frequently for medical and shopping purposes, expanded human service transportation is indicated as most cost-effective and responsive given constraints upon ADA complementary paratransit providers. Lower trip costs coupled with ability to use volunteers or agency staff to provide door assistance can make human service agencies a better fit for providing riders' door assistance needs, where for some passengers this can make the difference between leaving home or not.},

The most important variables for users when travelling in a congested corridor are individualized and a study is made on how these variables influence the modal distribution. The results of stated preferences surveys are modelled using logit type discrete choice models. Values are estimated for user time and the demand elasticity is determined with respect to the relevant variables. Different situations are created to analyse how user behaviour changes with changes in the most important variables. This article quantifies the effects of the more relevant variables and shows that Light Rail Transit can attract more demand than a bus service, but it must guarantee a regular and frequent service, at the same time as charging competitive fares. It is also shown that for the introduction to be more successful any action taken should be accompanied by policies that chastise the use of the private car such as increased parking charges or higher fuel taxes.},

Also, unreliability results economic losses to transit operators through under utilization of vehicles, equipment and work force. The reliability analysis of bus transit, covered in this paper, is based on numerical estimation of headway variations at different bus stops along the route. A number of simulations are conducted to analyze impact of occupancy profile on performance of bus operation. The average waiting time of passengers is used as an indicator of operational performance. Impact of the variability of departure headways as well as vehicle sizes on waiting time distributions is also investigated. Simulation results show that the spread of passenger waiting times widens as the headway variation increases. Irregular headways lead to uneven passenger loads on buses. Such variation in passenger counts result in some buses becoming full and being unable to serve certain stops. Thus, average waiting time increases with smaller bus size. Simulation also reveals that the average waiting time increases for passengers waiting further along the route. This paper highlights the need to produce improvements by reducing dispatch uncertainty and increasing bus capacity to achieve better waiting time outcomes. 2},

Federal environmental 3 regulations and the escalating price of fossil fuels have created a strong incentive to develop and 4 utilize more fuel-efficient vehicles. Given the challenges associated with the declining 5 sustainability of the fuel tax, the likely successor is a road user fee largely based on actual usage. 6 7 In April 2009, transportation professionals representing more than 50 organizations 8 gathered for a national Symposium on Mileage-Based User Fees in Austin, Texas to participate 9 in a two-day event to advance the discussion of mileage-based user fees as an alternative funding 10 mechanism to the fuel tax. The second national Symposium on Mileage-based User Fees was 11 held in Minneapolis, Minnesota in April 2010. Both events closed with an interactive discussion 12 session during which the same three key questions were posed on challenges, transition and 13 research needs. This paper summarizes the general themes of discussion surrounding the three 14 key questions posed during the closing session of both events, contrasting the responses from the 15 first year to the second. Although the general consensus of the symposium participants was that 16 the discussion of the topic of mileage-based fees is in fact advancing, the responses from the 17 second event largely mirror those of the first event, indicating that many of the most difficult 18 challenges and transition issues remain largely unaddressed.

Planning, design, 3 and operation of signalized intersections often require estimates of lane capacities under 4 prevailing road geometric, traffic and signal control conditions. The basic model of traffic 5 operations at signalized intersections is based on the assumption that when a signal changes 6 to green, the flow across the stop line increases rapidly to saturation flow rate, which remains 7 constant until either the queue is exhausted or the green period ends. In recent years, this 8 assumption has been challenged by some field observations conducted in Taiwan and U.S.A 9 (Hawaii and New York). These observations showed marginal increase in queue discharge 10 flow rate along the queued vehicles' position as average headway decreases. This paper 11 investigates queue discharge behavior at signalized intersections based on video data 12 collected from one of the busiest at-grade intersections in Auckland, New Zealand. The 13 methods proposed in the Highway Capacity Manual (2000) and Australian Road Research 14 Report 123 to estimate saturation flow rates were assessed against field observations. The 15 intersection was then modeled in AIMSUN micro-simulation software. The results from field 16 observations were similar to those observed in Taiwan and U.S.A., whereas the micro-17 simulation results went against some common perceptions that believed micro-simulation 18 under represents queue discharge rate.},

The proposed shared service has a new 4 organizational design and pricing scheme which aims to use the capacity in traditional taxi 5 services in a more efficient way. In this system, a taxi acting in " sharing " mode offers lower 6 prices to its clients, in exchange for them to accept sharing the vehicle with other persons 7 who have compatible trips (time and space), while also increasing the revenue for the 8 operator. 9 The paper proposes an agent based simulation model in which a set of rules for space 10 and time matching between the shared taxis and passengers is identified which considers a 11 maximum deviation from the original route and then presents an algorithm that seeks to 12 optimize different objectives such as minimum cost per passenger.km, maximum revenue per 13 vehicle.km, minimum passenger total in vehicle time, minimum vehicle idle time and equity 14 among different taxis in the fleet. 15 An experiment for Lisbon (Portugal) was conducted in order to test the model. 16 Results point for the usefulness of such model in order to test the effect of different 17 regular/shared taxi fleet compositions on a number of performance indicators such as average 18 revenue, number of active taxis, taxi occupancy rates, and average waiting time for a taxi. 19 With proper tuning and accurate survey data on the taxi market and consumer preferences 20 this model shows great promise in order to help decision makers determining optimized 21 parameters for taxi operations in order to improve level of service and the operators revenue 22 through a more efficient use of the vehicles' capacity. 23 24 25},

While this legislation is intended to apply to regional agencies, transit service and land use decisions are implemented at the local jurisdictional level. Therefore, assessing the possibility of changing land use development and transportation facilities to reduce GHG emissions is also an important planning issue for local planning agencies. This study integrates travel demand modeling with land use development strategies and emissions modeling to provide a method to evaluate various scenarios considering transportation, land use, and environmental impacts simultaneously. A case study of this integrated methodology to a transit expansion plan for the light rail system in Santa Clara County California is presented. Using Transit Oriented Development concepts, nine scenarios with denser residential and/or commercial land uses around new light rail stations are developed. The scenario comparisons show the densest mixed-use scenario has significant increases in transit ridership, non-motorized modes of travel and significant decreases in VMT and emissions.},

However, evaluating APCS service providers presents unique challenges primarily because the technologies are being rapidly advanced by the service providers and the technical details are often outside the skill set of practicing pavement engineers and managers. This paper presents California's experience gained in evaluating multiple service providers at a recent APCS demonstration conducted by the California Department of Transportation and technically supported by the University of California Pavement Research Center. The participating service providers' data were assessed on an item-by-item basis instead of the conventional approach of aggregating different distresses and comparing a composite index. Problems and errors were identified for each data item, which will be used to help the winning service provider improve their data quality in the subsequent statewide survey. This paper also documents a number of technological and methodological innovations, including 1) use of several independent methods to improve the credibility of ground truth data, 2) synchronization of profile measurements and pavement images to strengthen the credibility of the determined ground truth, and 3) development of a comprehensive pavement condition information viewer using open standards. Detailed evaluation results of georeference information, rut depths, mean profile depths and roughness are also presented to demonstrate the evaluation procedure and innovations.},

In this paper, we identify the 4 inefficiency of the existing heuristic rules for vehicle routing and propose a new optimization approach 5 for HCPPT solution. A path-based model for routing through multiple hubs as opposed to a single pair of 6 hubs is formulated to improve the HCPPT operational schemes. This study also develops a simulation 7 framework for the application of the proposed algorithm. To illustrate the system and computational 8 performances of the proposed model, simulations are conducted with different sets of scenarios and 9 model parameters. The path-based model shows reasonable performances over the various demands 10 patterns in terms of level-of-service and ride time index. It is also shown that with the use of constraint-11 driven schemes and model parameters the scale of the problem is reduced. The computational times are 12 shown to be very small, demonstrating the viability in real-time operations.},

However, it's uncertain to what extent {\{}PHEV{\}} users will operate their vehicles in Charge Depleting ({\{}CD{\}}) Mode. The uncertainty arises from the relationship between different {\{}PHEV{\}} designs, and households' travel and recharging behaviors. A {\{}PHEV{\}} demonstration and market research project at the University of California at Davis is giving households the opportunity to drive a {\{}PHEV{\}} conversion for four to six weeks each. The project provided one of the first opportunities to observe undirected, real world, consumer {\{}PHEV{\}} driving and charging behaviors. Out of the 67 households who have participated in the demonstration to date, 25 are considered here to be plausible early {\{}PHEV{\}} buyers who also routinely commute to a workplace. To explore the effects of a variety of {\{}PHEV{\}} designs as well as the availability of workplace charging infrastructure on time of day electricity use and {\{}CD{\}} driving, this analysis combines each of the 25 household's observed {\{}PHEV{\}} driving and charging with their own hypothetical {\{}PHEV{\}} which they designed in an online survey, and plausible workplace charging behavior as informed by observed travel data and interviews of these 25 households. The results show that workplace charging, and in general, additional away from home charging infrastructure for {\{}PHEVs{\}} will have varied impacts depending on a factors like: vehicle {\{}CD{\}} range, dwell time, the frequency the location is visited, and existing “home based” charging behavior. The marginal impact of workplace charging ($\backslash${\%}{\{}CD{\}} driving/ mile {\{}CD{\}} range) on a plausible early market is shown. The analyses presented here begin to characterize tradeoffs between away from home charging infrastructure, vehicle battery size/ {\{}CD{\}} range, while taking into account plausible early market consumer interests in different types of {\{}PHEV{\}} designs, and a diversity of driving and charging behaviors.},

abstract = {This paper presents a model of same-day mode choice at the household level for developing countries. A rule-based algorithm combining classical random utility maximization theory within a microsimulation framework is used. Modeling of private vehicle usage (including vehicle allocation and sharing use in household) is an essential component of this model because vehicle deficiency is common in developing countries. This model consists of four steps: (a) the allocation of private vehicles (car, motorcycle, and bicycle) in a household, (b) the mode choice of private vehicle users specified in the first step, (c) vehicle sharing in a household, and (d) the mode choice of individuals who do not use private vehicles. The adaptability of the model was improved by simulations on car, motorcycle, and bicycle usage. Discrepancies in the mode choice behavior of household members with and without the use of private vehicles are captured in this paper through different modeling methods. The rule-based algorithm, binary logit model, multinomial logit model, and mixed logit model were applied together in this four-step model. Travel diary survey data from 2007 from Bengbu, China, were used as an example for the validation test of this model. The results demonstrate that this model can accurately predict the mode choice of all household members in an internally self-consistent and theoretically credible manner for a midsize city in China. The proposed model is highly conducive to travel demand forecasting and transportation policy making.},

This paper proposes a mathematical formulation to identify these critical flights by defining a set of temporal intervals, called time windows, which must be met during the flight execution. The width of the time windows is variable as it reflects all known constraints on runway capacities and/or on congested en-route sectors that the flight will go through. We choose the set of optimal time windows that maximizes their overall width, thus providing airline operators with the largest degree of flexibility to perform their flights. We present three possible approaches to compute the utilization of the system capacity. By means of a computational analysis, we show that the solution of the time window model is insensitive with respect to the formulation used for the capacity constraints.},

Emissions from a homogenous freeway section 4 with typical fleet and traffic characteristics are modeled and analyzed utilizing widely established 5 emission models and macroscopic speed-flow relationships. Assuming an inelastic travel demand 6 function, it is observed that the potential for marginal emissions rate reductions through average travel 7 speed adjustments between 30 and 65 mph is small – though larger rate reductions are possible by 8 moderating speeds that are outside this range. If elastic travel demands functions are assumed, then it is 9 observed that capacity expansions that reduce marginal emissions rates by increasing travel speeds are 10 likely to increase total emissions for initial Level of Service E or above. Finally, it is also shown that 11 alternative emissions reduction strategies that do not rely on increasing freeway speed or capacity may be 12 more effective, even assuming an inelastic demand function. 13 14},

This paper presents a real-time, traffic-responsive signal control system for signal priority on conflicting transit routes that also minimizes the negative effects on auto traffic. The proposed system determines the signal settings that minimize the total person delay in the network while assigning priority to the transit vehicles on the basis of their passenger occupancy.

Based on the ratio of the cumulative green time to the desired green time is the first step to 11 update the queue weights, which are then used in the optimization to find signal timings for minimum 12 total delay.

The signs are active for a limited period during peak commute times and only display the travel time comparison between the train and driving when transit has an advantage. To evaluate the project, the team conducted both qualitative and quantitative analyses. The analysis indicated positive support for the transit-related CMSs and the general objective of sharing travel information with commuters. While a small percentage of respondents said they had changed modes to transit due to the travel time information during the pilot period, an even greater percentage indicated that they would consider switching modes in the future, a compelling show of support for public dissemination of transit information. Integrating transit travel time with highway CMSs is an exciting next step in the dissemination of real-time multi-modal travel information. By comparing highway driving with train travel times, transit-related CMSs help commuters make informed decisions regarding their travel behavior. Over time, transit-related CMSs could increase awareness of transit options and reinforce positive perceptions of transit services by displaying transit's time advantage. These effects could lead to significant time savings, increased throughput, reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions for the regions served by transit-related CMSs.},

The conducted studies have indicated that with an increase in general cell phone use, phoning while driving has also grown. For around 80{\%} of Jordan's population that own cell phones, phoning while driving has become a legitimate concern for potential safety hazards. In order to efectively target interventions towards the drivers using cell phones while driving, information about the characteristics of these respondents is needed. The present study investigates the extent of cell phone use on Jordan's roads and the characteristics of drivers who use cell phones while driving. The data was collected using a questionnaire survey to examine the relationship between phoning while driving and driver demographics, driving experience and exposure and characteristics of users. Among all participants, the study demonstrated that those who reported the use of hands-free devices tended to use the cell phone more ofen and for a longer duration of time. Further, male drivers tended to use the cell phone while driving more frequently and for longer duration compared with female drivers. In regards to pulling of the road while using the cell phone, the study found this practice to be more prevalent among females, older drivers and more educated drivers. The study has also revealed other fndings that are important for characterizing the trend towards using the cell phone while driving in Jordan.},

Despite this, changes in the surface profile still 5 directly affect the user costs including repair and maintenance costs and damage to goods. For 6 example, the American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHTO) reported that poor 7 road conditions added an estimated 76.8 billion dollars to transport costs annually. The objective 8 of this paper is to estimate the effect of roughness (IRI) on vehicle durability and repair and 9 maintenance costs. First, Zaniewski's repair and maintenance costs (the latest comprehensive 10 research conducted in the U.S) are updated by multiplying their reported costs by the inflation 11 rate of R{\&}M costs between 1982 and 2007. Then, a mechanistic-empirical methodology is 12 proposed to estimate the effect of roughness on repair and maintenance costs. The proposed 13 approach is based on fatigue damage analysis using numerical modeling of vehicle response. 14 Finally, the results from the mechanistic-empirical approach were compared to the empirical 15 results (updated Zaniewski's tables), and were found to be very close until 5 m/km. The standard 16 error is about 2 {\%}. Also, a case study of the I-69 section near Lansing, Michigan, was presented 17 in the paper. This detailed analysis is useful for identifying those segments of the road within a 18 project that cause higher operating costs to the traveling vehicles. These localized rough sections 19 could then be subject to maintenance activities in order to remedy the problem.},

abstract = {With the increasing interest in road pricing strategies to alleviate congestion and improve network performance, this study develops a multicriterion dynamic user equilibrium (MDUE) traffic assignment model that explicitly considers heterogeneous users who seek to minimize three essential decision attributes: travel time, out-of-pocket cost, and travel time reliability in the underlying path choice framework. The value of time in this study is treated as a continuous random variable distributed across the population of trip makers, and travel time reliability is estimated at a path level. Furthermore, the proposed MDUE model is capable of considering different vehicle classes, namely, low-occupancy vehicles and high-occupancy vehicles; thus, with greater realism in trip makers' path choice behavior, the MDUE model is applicable for analyzing a variety of road pricing scenarios. To address the practical application aspects for large-scale congested networks, novel implementation techniques are proposed to overcome computational obstacles to real-world application. An application to the New York metropolitan regional network is demonstrated, and a set of numerical experiments is conducted on this network to explore the convergence behavior, solution quality, and required computational time of the MDUE algorithm.},

abstract = {Rest areas provide the occupants of passenger vehicles and the operators of heavy vehicles an opportunity to use a restroom, walk around, stop for a meal, sleep for a while, or pause to use a cellular phone. These activities have a direct impact on several aspects of the design of rest areas, from parking to facility sizing, water needs, and wastewater generation and handling. All these components are directly influenced by one critical factor: entering traffic volumes. The study presented here used data from 44 study sites to examine the amount of traffic that used rest areas, expressed as the percentage of the main-line hourly volume that entered the rest area, as well as the effect of many underlying variables that were believed to affect the use of rest areas. The study found that the average rate of rest area use by main-line traffic for different highway categories (high- and low-volume Interstates and arterials) varied from 8.4{\%} to 12.3{\%}. For main-line traffic entering rest areas, the overall average rate of use was approximately 10{\%} and the overall 85th percentile was about 15{\%}. The study identified two peaks during the day for the percentage of main-line traffic using the rest area, but vehicular counts at rest areas showed only one peak at about midday. Given this peak demand, the midday period should be considered in the planning and design of rest area facilities. For the majority of rest areas examined, the average rate of use during the midday period varied roughly from 13{\%} to 17{\%} of main-line traffic.},

abstract = {West Virginia University (WVU), under contract to the Federal Transit Administration, has developed two tools for evaluating the pollutant emissions, greenhouse gases, and fuel economy of transit buses: 1) a searchable database of transit vehicle emissions data and 2) a transit fleet emissions inventory model. These tools complemented by a transit vehicle life cycle cost model developed by WVU, Battelle, and Transit Resource Center for the Transportation Research Board provide an interactive, approachable, and reliable method for users, primarily transit agencies, to evaluate overall fleet emissions and fuel consumption for optimization of fleet configuration and operation. These tools will be made available through an online website called the Integrated Bus Information System (IBIS). This paper describes development of the transit fleet inventory model and comparison with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) MOBILE6 and MOVES emissions inventory models. The IBIS model was developed from extensive chassis dynamometer data from several " reference vehicles " from which polynomial models of the emissions could be built through linear regression. These backbone models characterized the effects of driving characteristics on vehicle emissions and fuel consumption. Comparison of predicted emissions showed good agreement for hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen emissions and acceptable agreement for particulate matter emissions. The EPA MOBILE6 model assumed constant values as a function of duty cycle for carbon dioxide emissions and fuel economy. The WVU IBIS model and EPA MOVES model displayed similar trends for carbon dioxide emissions but MOVES predicted substantially lower carbon dioxide levels. INTRODUCTION The mission of public transit agencies is to provide safe, efficient, environmentally conscious, reliable and cost effective transportation. The evaluation, selection, and implementation of fuel and powertrain technology choices are critically important to accomplishing this mission. Transit vehicle procurement decisions are influenced by complex and intertwined considerations and constraints including: • Emissions and greenhouse gas implications • Compliance with federal, state, and local environmental and procurement regulations • Initial investment expense and life cycle costs • Reliability, availability, and maintainability implications of the technology • Vendor stability, support, and warranty • Fueling and maintenance facility requirements • Operator and mechanic training requirements Rarely does an obvious technology choice emerge and the vehicle procurement decisions evolve to be a difficult compromise between economic, environmental, and operability requirements. In addition, there is often inherent conservatism in decision making, because the reliability of novel technologies is not proven and is difficult to assess. Compounding the difficulty of fleet planning and procurement is the dearth of information, resources and tools to enable the evaluation of environmental, economic, and operational implications of the various fuel and technology choices for transit vehicles. West Virginia University (WVU), under contract to the Federal Transit Administration, has developed a set of tools for evaluating the pollutant emissions, greenhouse gases, and fuel economy of transit buses: 1) a searchable database of transit vehicle emissions test data and 2) a transit fleet emissions inventory model. WVU, Battelle and Transit Resource Center have also developed a transit vehicle life cycle cost model under contract to the Transit Cooperative Research Program Project C-15 [1]. These tools, along with other transit vehicle procurement information resources will be made available online at the Integrated Bus Information System (IBIS) website currently under development by WVU. The overall goal of IBIS is to provide an interactive, approachable, and reliable method for users -primarily transit agencies -to evaluate overall fleet emissions and fuel consumption and optimize fleet configuration and operation. The development of the life cycle cost model has been previously published [1]. This paper presents an overview of the methodology, capability, and application of the IBIS transit fleet emission inventory model.},

Implementation of sustainable strategies result in cost savings, better water quality and infiltration, increased diversity of insect life and benefits to the socioeconomic health of the state. Lacking an awareness of associated benefits, the public is often hesitant to accept sustainable, but less manicured roadsides, causing many Departments of Transportation to revert to traditional management regimes. This research assessed perception and determined that acceptance could be increased with an awareness of associated benefits. An Internet survey was administered to three groups of participants. A control group rated eleven roadside images from least to most desirable and completed a brief survey. An experimental group read a list of information about traditional and sustainable strategies of roadside vegetation management before rating the images and completing the survey. Another experimental group viewed a 6 1/2 minute video that delivered the same information as the list, but engaged the respondent differently. This group then rated the images and completed the survey, as did the previous two groups. Among those who read the list, a significant change in perception occurred for three of the images when compared to those in the control group. Among those who viewed the video, a significant change in perception occurred for four of the images when compared to those in the control group. When all images were compared to the baseline image (mown turf), Delaware's current default vegetation management strategy, each response distribution was significantly different than that of mown turf. Respondents rated images of flowering meadows, meadow with a mown turf margin, turf with a wooded edge, shrubs and trees more desirable than mown turf and images with grassy meadows less desirable. When strategies were grouped according to similar attributes and compared to mown turf, respondents rated images with flowers (flowering meadows, shrubs and trees), and images with a mown turf margin more desirable than turf and grass meadows less desirable.},

Most of the existing methodologies use these models with count data and their variants to study the mean effects of covariates on crash frequency. This study seeks to explore the use of quantile regression for counts as a methodological alternative in analyzing crash frequency. Compared with existing models, the proposed model provides a fuller and more robust analysis of crash data for at least two reasons. First, crash data usually follow typical count distributions with a large proportion of zeros, and the remaining values highly skew toward the right. This nature of crash data makes quantile regression appealing because it can provide more comprehensive information about the effects of covariates on crash frequency rather than just the mean because quantile regression allows various quantiles of a population to be estimated.

abstract = {Current practice in condition rating varies between states. Agencies use methods customized to meet the needs of the individual state. A lack of consistency in the methodology, data collection, and rating calculation techniques makes it difficult to compare assets across state borders and across asset types. To improve the overall condition of National Highway System (NHS) routes, a unified method of condition rating is needed. This paper presents a generalized framework for the rating of infra-structure assets at the corridor level. The paper provides steps that can be used for any asset type to calculate the health rating of the asset and the overall health of a corridor by combining the health ratings of all individual assets and asset types. The paper also presents results of a pilot demonstration of the proposed framework with data for Interstate 81, which were provided by the Virginia Department of Transportation. The health ratings can help engineers, planners, and policy makers to see the current condition of NHS routes and to monitor the results of using different maintenance, repair, and rehabilitation techniques at the state, regional, and national levels. The ratings can help to ensure that the condition of the nation's highway system is consistently at an acceptable level to the governing agency and users alike.},

abstract = {In recent years, driving simulators have become an interesting tool to improve the analysis of driving behavior as a suitable alternative to field studies. The main reason for this is that field studies are very expensive and characterized by complexity in data collection and by difficulty in making measurements under controlled traffic conditions. On the other hand, driving simulators have several positive features such as efficiency, low expenses, time saving, safety, experimental control and data collection ease. The main problem in using a driving simulator is that the simulated situations are quite often far from the real ones. In particular, the lack of risk on a simulator is the main difference with real conditions. Therefore, a driving simulator must be validated in order to use it for driver behavior analysis. The main goal of this work is to validate a driving simulator with reference to gap-acceptance behavior at road intersections. In order to test the driving simulator ability to represent adequately a real situation, a comparison with real behavior has been carried out. The participants were asked to perform a right turn maneuver at a three-leg intersection. The positions and speeds of the subject vehicle and of the other simulated vehicles were recorded with a resolution of 0.1 seconds. The results obtained appear interesting and confirm that a driving simulator can be used for representing drivers behavior at intersections; moreover, the findings of the research suggest the usefulness of driving simulators for road traffic accident analysis and prediction.},

abstract = {This paper developed a relocation pattern for analyzing decisions regarding the relocation process of individual firms by using discrete choice models. Within this framework, three decision points in the relocation process are maintained in the micro-simulation modeling. The first decision that is move or non-move is modeled by using a binary logit form with the outcome of the probability of moving. The second decision, choosing the destination region, is modeled as a multinomial logit model with the outcome of the conditional probability of choosing a region. The final decision, choosing the new zone, is estimated by considering the spatial interactions. For example, the correlation among firms in the deterministic term and the spatial correlation among zones in the error term are considered by mixed logit models. The results of the study indicated that large firms and older firms have a lower probability of relocation. Moreover, this research found out that migrating firms are more attracted in regions with high accessibility. Finally, spatial factors and land prices in a given zone strongly affect the zone choice decision-making process of all firms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]},

abstract = {In many countries around the world, traffic congestion caused by ever increasing demand of auto traffic has long become a serious urban problem. To alleviate traffic congestion, various traffic demand management (TDM) strategies have been implemented, but they have often failed to effectively mitigate congestion in roads, especially when surging travel demand is concentrated in a short period of time. The expressway reservation system in which drivers should make a reservation for traveling on expressways is an innovative yet bold TDM strategy. Since expressways have been regarded as " open " public facilities that people can use anytime they want, restricting their access to expressways via reservation has been considered as violating their basic rights. This is part of reason that the express reservation system has not lead to a real implementation. This paper explores the viability of introducing the expressway reservation system during two major national holidays in South Korea. To that end, we conducted a survey on the expressway reservation system. More than 80{\%} of the 1,000 survey respondents said that their perceived travel time during the national holidays was 2-3 times longer than usual. The percentage of the respondents who are willing to change their departure time if it can reduce their travel time during the national holidays exceeds 80{\%}. This tendency gets stronger as their perceived travel time becomes longer. Among those who would change their departure time, almost 84{\%} said that changing their departure time up to ± 4 hours from their initially intended time is acceptable. Despite such a willingness and flexibility with regard to changing the departure time, only 51.4{\%} of the respondents thought that the expressway reservation system is necessary. This could be attributed to potential inconveniences caused by reserving access to expressways. Nonetheless 73.4{\%} of the respondents said that they would participate in the expressway reservation system if implemented. Statistical analysis showed that perceived travel time, age, and travel distance are the most influential factors for the public's acceptance of the expressway reservation system. The survey results reveal that the public are ready to adjust their travel behaviors, albeit inconvenient, to avoid severe traffic congestion during the national holidays.},

abstract = {Continuous real-time monitoring of shipment cost and delivery time is increasingly used by companies to reduce transportation costs while avoiding costly delays or disruptions. Recourse refers to the ability of the shipper to update a routing strategy on the basis of information obtained about the state of the network disruptions. An adaptive routing policy is proposed to help shippers and carriers save costs by reacting to information updates. Public transportation agencies can use the formulation to predict the behavior of shippers under disruptions in multimodal transportation networks. A mathematical model is formulated and analyzed; the model accounts for a new type of freight network assignment problem with recourse defined in a dynamic environment and in the presence of probable network disruptions or significant delays. The mathematical model is intended (a) to capture shipper behavior better in the presence of network disruptions and rerouting and (b) to include the heterogeneity in shipper routing behavior as a result of commodity or product, mode, and logistics system characteristics. Results indicate that models that do not account for the likelihood of disruption can severely misrepresent freight system performance and flows over the network, especially in situations in which freight is continuously monitored and disruptions are either significant or frequent.},

The method used revealed preference routes as well as stated preference routes to calculate accepted detour factors, which were then used as boundary conditions for choice set generation using path enumeration. On the basis of a spatial choice set, the method generated time-dependent choice sets by attributing all routes with actual travel times at the time traveled.},

abstract = {This study proposes a mathematical model that finds an en route sector combination that minimizes controller staffing. The model uses fixed posting areas (FPA) as the fundamental units for combination and incorporates statistical estimation results that serve as the mechanism for predicting staffing levels based on traffic conditions. To solve the model with typical optimization solvers, linearization techniques are applied to approximate or transform the nonlinear objective functions and constraints. Realistic traffic and staffing data are used to evaluate the model's ability to predict controller staffing. In the scenario analysis, the restrictions that have been imposed in the baseline model are relaxed. The potential savings in controller staffing are thus revealed by solving the problems under relaxation scenarios. It is shown that if the FPAs can be freely formed into sectors, then maximum savings can be obtained. The proposed model is intended to help practitioners, especially area supervisors or air traffic managers, forecast daily or hourly staffing requirements, so that controller resources can be used efficiently.},

abstract = {Arterials across the United States are operating inefficiently and are becoming increasingly congested because of growing traffic demand. Agencies tasked with improving these arterials are running out of good solutions. Superstreets, called restricted crossing U-turns by FHWA, are part of a menu of unconventional arterial designs that may provide promising solutions. Up to this point, little valid information exists on the operational effects of superstreets because study results have been from macroscopic analyses and simulations of hypothetical arterials. The purpose of this research was to determine the operational effects of the superstreet treatment on existing signalized arterials in North Carolina. The operational analysis involved calibrating and validating VISSIM models of three existing signalized superstreets in North Carolina; two isolated intersections and one five-intersection superstreet corridor. After some adjustments, the team produced VISSIM models that provided travel times within an acceptable range of the field data collected. Results from the three calibrated VISSIM models were compared with results from models of equivalent conventional sites at various volume levels with travel time as the primary measure of effectiveness. The superstreet outperformed the conventional design at each location studied and reduced the overall average travel time per vehicle traveling through the intersection. The travel time savings and extra capacity at higher volumes can buy agencies more years of acceptable operation before intersection improvements, or even interchanges, are necessary.},

This integrated model system is necessary because most current travel models are not sufficiently sensitive to the dynamic interplay between travel behavior and network conditions, and are unable to reasonably represent the effects of transportation policies such as variable road pricing and travel demand management strategies. Additional project goals include producing a transferrable process and sample data that can be used in other regions, addressing travel time reliability in travel models, demonstrating an effective interface with EPA's MOVES model, and incorporating knowledge from other research efforts that consider pricing operations issues. Finally, a key goal of the project is to design an integrated model system that can be implemented in other regions, so the design effort was guided by the requirements that the model must be scalable, relatively easy and cost-effective to implement and maintain. This paper presents the design of the new integrated model system, which is being implemented in Jacksonville, Florida and Burlington, Vermont.},

The validation results 12 show that the newly developed model is capable of discovering the major factors in determining 13 freeway work zone capacity and generating decision-making rules for work zone capacity 14 estimation according to given conditional attributes. The average errors of the training samples 15 for each rule are less than 100 vehicles per hour per lane ({\textless}10{\%}), which indicates improved 16 performance in comparison with the existing work zone capacity models.},

Partitioning the landscape into hydrological watersheds is a logical and an ecologically-focused way to explore the context interactions between natural and man-made features. The methodology employs concepts of geographic object-based approaches customized in a multi-scale landscape analysis. This study demonstrates the application of a top-down GIS-based landscape analysis that considers the analytical hierarchy decision making process, improved radar-based mapping of forested wetlands, long-term planning, 12-digit boundaries of hydrologic unit code and the designed Interstate-269 in a watershed-focused landscape analysis. The study is part of a larger project investigating the application of remote sensing and geospatial analysis to streamline the environmental planning process for transportation corridor projects. The results indicated that the understanding of landscape context and position can deliver knowledge of early impacts on the environment and ecosystems that extend beyond traditional approaches which quantify the number of stream crossings and the areas of wetlands impacted. The study showed that values can be assigned to various landscape features and that these values may be considered in the context of a spatially enabled Multiple Criteria Decision Making – Analytical Hierarchy Process (MCDM-AHP).},

While the Tollway has operated ITS devices for several decades, the various systems all came together in 2004 with the opening of the Traffic and Incident Management System (TIMS). In 2007, TIMS was integrated with the existing Tollway computer aided dispatch (CAD) system. In 2008, the Tollway tasked their traffic engineer to answer a short question: " If we have two systems that create a wealth of data on operations, how can we best use this information to improve operations and provide answers to the public and management? " What started as a short question, became much more detailed. A literature review provided some very quick answers, many of which raised more questions. The Tollway has created new tools that take advantage of detailed sensor data and incident information allowing the Tollway to better understand traffic, improve operations, and provide more timely customer support. This paper details consideration and development of numerous performance measures covering travel time and delay, safety, incident management, and other areas. This is the beginning of an evolutionary process to comprehensively and responsively measure performance that will improve safety and operations on the 286-mile Tollway system.},

Freight and passenger traffic was shifting to highways, with the rapidly developing Interstate highway system, and to airlines, with the growing use of commercial jet aircraft. There was an overabundance of railroads and of rail capacity for the diminishing rail traffic. Unproductive labor agreements limited productivity, and economic regulations restricted flexibility. A series of changes over the course of more than two decades produced a more efficient, environmentally friendly—or lean and green—railroading industry. The size and the number of railroads diminished, regulations were eliminated, and more flexible staffing and work rules were instituted with nonunion labor. Better technology also improved productivity. Railroads are now the most financially successful of all transportation modes although immense challenges still lie ahead. },

Data from 14 different pairs of WIM sites are used to evaluate how matching accuracy is impacted by various factors including the distance between two sites, travel time variability, truck volumes, and sensor accuracy or consistency of measurements. After running the vehicle re-identification algorithm for each one of these 14 pairs of sites, the matching error rates are reported. The results from the testing datasets showed a large variation in terms of accuracy. It is found that sensor accuracy and volumes have the greatest impacts on matching accuracy whereas the distance alone does not have a significant impact.},

abstract = {Coordinated arterial signal timing plans are typically designed for normal weather conditions based on a number of assumed traffic flow characteristics. Qualitatively, during winter operations vehicle speeds decrease, arrival time of platoons shift, vehicle headway increases, platoon dispersion increases, and saturation flow rates decrease. As a result, good weather signal timing plans may be less than optimal during winter operations. Although there has been some research conducted regarding the effects of weather on some traffic flow parameters, these have been based upon manual field observations. There has been little work on developing automated methods of measuring these parameters or assessing of the benefits that could be achieved by implementing alternative timing plans during winter events. This paper presents findings from the automated collection of high resolution signal controller data and Bluetooth probe vehicle travel times to characterize both the microscopic and macroscopic operation of a four intersection signalized arterial during winter weather conditions (snow and ice on pavement) as well as clear pavement conditions. An 83 second increase in median travel time through the system was measured during winter conditions. Platoon shifts of 15, 25, and 30 seconds were measured at three intersection links which corresponded to an approximate reduction in design speed of 7 to 11 miles per hour (MPH) on a corridor with a posted speed of 55 MPH. Alternative offsets were calculated that showed an opportunity to decrease overall vehicle delay by 26.7{\%} for southbound vehicles during the AM peak snow event.},

abstract = {1 2 In developing countries, sustainable transportation focuses as much on finance and ample cover-3 age as on the environment. Responding to an increased concern for quality of service is the 4 emergence of BRT systems as the most common and preferred alternative for mass transit provi-5 sion. The objective of this study is to indirectly support this position from a sustainable devel-6 opment point of view, analyzing the environmental, economical and social aspects of BRT sys-7 tems. The scope is limited to a case study two Latin American systems, Transmilenio and Me-8 trob{\'{u}}s and to a partially subjective valuation of sustainability. To determine its impact on the en-9 vironment, Ecological Footprint analysis was employed based on vehicle emissions and ridership 10 data. Economic sustainability was evaluated from three perspectives: efficiency, using operating 11 and capital productivity performance measures; economic development benefits, such as TOD 12 and congestion mitigation; and financial sustainability, based on lifecycle costs and financing 13 schemes. Finally, social costs and benefits were assessed. To come up with a comprehensive sus-14 tainability measure, MADM analysis was implemented assigning weights based on the characte-15 ristics and needs of the populations explored. It was found that while Metrob{\'{u}}s is achieving sig-16 nificant better results in terms of quantitative measures (e.g. emission reductions),Transmilenio 17 is not far behind because it leads in overall impact. Both systems were indicative of contributing 18 to sustainable transportation despite their room for development, and this implies that there is 19 future research on the application of EF and sustainability analysis in BRTs. Subsequent studies 20 should consider other elements such as the modal comparison and political aspects. Finally, the 21 further development of a sustainability framework should be sensitive to both developed and de-22 veloping countries. 23 24 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {US FLIGHT DELAY IN THE 2000'S: AN ECONOMETRIC ANALYSIS ABSTRACT Many researchers have undergone to better understand, quantify, and improve operations of the National Airspace System (NAS). In this paper, a series of successively more complex econometric models relating average delay against schedule in the NAS to key causal factors including airport congestion, total traffic, and en route weather. The estimation results suggest that airport congestion, measured by arrival queuing delay, has been a major contributor to average delay (about 32{\%}), but a model with one explanatory variable is inadequate to describe the reality of a system. Thus, along with traffic and weather conditions, the models also take into account the 10 airports with the worst on-time statistics in 2007. Results indicate that EWR, JFK, ORD, PHL, and CLT are airports with a disproportionate large effect on system wide performance. LGA, interestingly, has a disproportionately small effect. Even with the above factors accounted for, seasonal and secular influences are significant. December, January, and February have the worst delays, while the several years after the 9/11 attacks decreased delay substantially. Such comparisons highlight the fact that statistically modeling of NAS performance is still limited both in terms of understanding and data.},

The input variable of interest is the path 17 flow vector and the output of interest is the path travel time vector.

Most existing car-following models are deterministic in nature, and do not capture the effects of surrounding traffic conditions on the decision making process of the driver. This paper offers an extension to the sequential risk taking model introduced by Hamdar et al. (4), with an attempt to capture the effects of surrounding conditions on the driving behavior. It recognizes two behavioral regimes depending on the complexity of the decision situation associated with the prevailing congestion. With each regime is associated a different value function capturing driver preferences for gains associated with a particular acceleration. A probabilistic regime selection mechanism relates the driver's choices to prevailing traffic conditions. The model is calibrated against actual trajectory data. Initial results show that the model provides realistic behavioral patterns previously identified in the literature.},

The 9 upper-level problem, which is a bound-constrained quadratic problem, has an enormous number 10 of variables and parameters for a network with around 68,000 links, 28,000 nodes and 3,700 11 zones. Techniques to reduce the number of variables and parameters are described in this study 12 along with an approach to reduce the time and memory requirement of the lower-level problem. 13 Furthermore, the basic approach, which was previously only applied to a single vehicle class, is 14 extended and adapted in this study to estimate matrices for single-occupancy and high-15 occupancy vehicles jointly. Two different solution packages, MINOS and KNITRO are tested for 16 the upper-level problem.

To account 54 for these spatial differences, this paper investigates the hierarchical estimation of the 55 traffic capacity distribution on a highway using a nonparametric Bayesian approach 56 assuming two prior distributions, namely Dirichlet and Gamma process priors under the 57 minimization of a squared-error loss function. This approach addresses the difficult 58 problem of the censored observations while treating the model parameters as random 59 variables represented by a probability distribution. The methodology is applied on the 60 highway sections with different spatial characteristics. An application of the method for 61 on and off-ramps of a highway is also presented. Finally, the results are discussed 62 hierarchically with presenting a methodology to simulate censored and breakdown 63 observations and to analyze them statistically using a bootstrap approach in order to 64 obtain the capacity distributions for sections without sufficient data. 65 66 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {A major body of transportation greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction strategies is contained in state-level climate action plans (CAPs). There has been some concern from major stakeholder groups that CAPs are not rigorously developed documents, and that the reductions estimated in CAPs are unrealistic given real constraints on funding and implementation authority. This paper analyzes a subset of 84 strategies in 9 states' CAPs to determine how reliable reduction estimates are and where significant sources of uncertainty arise. We evaluated measures from these CAPs according to requirements for enactment, external factors that play a role in implementation, quantification method, and variables used in the quantification. For enactment of strategies, nearly all of the transportation GHG reductions estimated in state CAPs would require new state legislation or state agency rulemaking. Half of the reductions would require major new funding. For implementation factors, one third of state CAP GHG reductions rely heavily on assumptions about the future price of transportation. A relatively small portion (10{\%}) of the estimated GHG reductions depends on land use changes. Some of the greatest uncertainty stems from strategies that are quantified using goals, rather than empirical data, and are not supported by a feasibility study. We judge that, if state CAP transportation strategies are enacted as stated, roughly one third of the estimated reductions in GHG emissions is highly uncertain. As states develop and revise CAPs in the future, they can focus on developing and quantifying strategies in a way that increases the likelihood that strategies will achieve at least the reductions estimated.},

This paper aims to examine these bike-renting systems and investigate their impacts on travel behavior. We selected three Chinese cities, Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou, for the empirical study. A questionnaire survey of bike-renting system users was conducted in each city. Based on the survey data, the paper first identifies the key differences among the three bike-renting systems, for example, the system in Hangzhou has a strong emphasis on serving the large number of tourists, whereas the systems in Beijing and Shanghai are more oriented to commuters. Comparisons are made in terms of services, facilities, users and operation management. The paper then discusses the impacts on travel behavior in each city. It explains the reasons for the customers' preference of the bike-sharing system, and estimates the effect of substituting bicycles for other travel modes. Finally, in light of the differences in the bike-renting system design and management, as well as in the travel behavior impact, the paper draws some useful lessons. The insights gained from this study can benefit other Chinese cities as they develop or improve their bike-renting systems. They can also more generally enrich the literature on bike-sharing as an approach to promote green transportation.},

With ramps acting as boundedly rational agents, we present a decentralized and adaptive approach to ramp metering, which is inspired by the solution to the El Farol problem: everyone wants to go to a bar called El Farol if it is not crowded but would rather stay home if it is. The El Farol problem is a simplified model of a class of congestion and coordination problems that arise in modern engineering and economic systems and is suited for the multi-agent simulation framework. In the context of ramp metering, every agent forecasts the congestion level on the freeway and decides between two alternatives: to allow or not allow the next awaiting vehicle on the ramp to enter the freeway. The proposed ramp metering approach is tested via our multi-agent simulation model and enabled by the cellular automaton traffic flow model. Simulation results show that the proposed agent-based approach yields comparable or better results than ALINEA under the tested conditions. An attractive feature of agent-based solution is that it provides a more equitable level of service to all network users.},

Since landfill gas (LFG) is a renewable resource, this energy is considered renewable. When used as a vehicle fuel, LFG-based compressed natural gas (CNG) consumes up to 1100 Btu of fossil fuel and generates up to 120 g of carbon dioxide-equivalent (CO 2 e) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions per mile on a ―well-to-wheel‖ (WTW) basis. This compares with approximately 7500 Btu and 500 g of CO 2 e per mile for CNG from fossil natural gas and 8000 Btu and 650 g of CO 2 e per mile for petroleum gasoline. Liquefying the LFG consumes another 400+ Btu of fossil fuel and 30+ g of CO2e per mi if grid electricity is used for the process. However, if some of the LFG is used to generate electricity for gas cleanup and liquefaction (or compression), LNG (or CNG) produced from LFG can have no fossil fuel input and only minimal CO 2 e emissions on a WTW basis. This ―renewable natural gas‖ (RNG) is among the lowest carbon fuels in either compressed or liquid form.},

abstract = {Transport energy use in China is rocketing and poses challenges to national energy security and greenhouse gas emission. Meanwhile, auto-oriented neighborhood development (e.g., the so-called " superblock " development) dominates current urban expansion and construction. This research takes an empirical approach to examine the relationship between neighborhood form and household travel energy use in Jinan, China, using 9 neighborhoods representing four different urban form typologies commonly found in Chinese cities: " traditional " , " grid " , " enclave " , and " superblock. " Following a household survey, disaggregate household transport energy uses are derived from self-reported household weekly travel diaries. Comparative analysis and advanced two-step instrumental models are employed. Results show that, all else equal, households living in the " superblock " neighborhoods consume more transportation energy than those living in other neighborhood types, as they tend to own more cars and travel longer distance. The proximity to transit corridors and greater distance from the city center also appears to increase household transport energy use, although both impacts are somewhat minor, partially due to offsetting effects on car ownership. A number of effects of household socioeconomics, demographics and attitudes on transport energy use and car ownership are also identified. Overall, the analysis suggests that to help chart a more energy-efficient Chinese urban future, policymakers should examine past neighborhood designs in China to find alternatives to the " superblock " , focus on strategic infill development, possibly encourage bike use as substitute to larger motorized vehicles, improve the efficiency of public transport, and examine preference-shaping possibilities to influence more energy efficient lifestyles.},

abstract = {3.Abstract: In 2005, the federal government released a funding provision called the Safe, Accountable, Flexible and Efficient Transportation Equity Act—a Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) that includes funding specifically for rural, transportation-disadvantaged individuals. In order for these funds to be disbursed to local communities, the legislation requires that regional planning agencies (Metropolitan Planning Organizations/MPOs) create a locally-developed, Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan (the Coordinated Plan). Among other purposes, this plan requires MPOs to identify the unmet transportation needs of transportation-disadvantaged populations including seniors, persons with limited-incomes, and persons with disabilities in rural areas, a responsibility previously held by state governments. This year, San Diego's regional governing body known as the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) is substantially addressing the transportation needs of limited-income, seniors, and disabled rural populations, independent of urban cities, for the first time since the enactment of the bill. With the intention of learning from and improving SANDAG's survey tool (the first step of the Coordinated Plan), this paper reviews the creation and findings of SANDAG's 2010 Rural Transportation Survey, and then refines the survey using the recommendations of rural transportation providers and mobility managers. Through this process, this study presents an unmet transportation needs survey design toolkit that MPOs can customize and use to understand their rural, transportation-disadvantaged communities.},

A better quality of guidance would be possible, however, if short-term duration prediction of incidents were available beside information about current congestion. This study used incident duration modelling techniques for the congestion prediction problem for use in in-vehicle navigation systems. A unique database of TMC messages collected for the London road network is used in this study. A model that predicts incident duration is fitted with London TMC data using factors that affect the incident duration as explanatory variables. The prediction accuracy of the model was compared with other na{\"{i}}ve predictors. It is shown that the proposed model achieves higher prediction accuracy than the na{\"{i}}ve models. Moreover, the paper proposes avenues for future research to further improve incident duration prediction and practical recommendations to data providers.},

abstract = {This study presents a set of two low carbon transportation scenarios, Globalization and Glocalization, where carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions could be heavily reduced in North American and Latin America. The scenarios illustrate how different policy assumptions and energy intensities could reduce emissions through backcasting and long-term projection approaches. Three main policy groups, transportation technologies and strategies, land use planning and pricing instruments design, are assumed to trigger modal shifts and trip reductions. In Globalization, strong international cooperation to decrease CO2 emissions leads to innovations in vehicle technologies and stricter standards, while in Glocalization, local concerns for reducing transportation problems lower distance traveled and create modal shifts to less CO2 intensive modes, through significant changes in land use and transportation planning. Under Glocalization, total transportation CO2 emission in 2050 is approximately 78 percent less than in the "Business as Usual" (BAU) scenario for North America and only 34 percent of 2005 level. For Latin America, CO2 emission in 2050 is 76 percent less than BAU, and 71 percent of 2005 level. The changes envisaged in these scenarios differ for the highly motorized North America and the less motorized Latin America. North America must bring about reductions in total distance traveled by automobiles and air, whereas Latin American is still able to expand automobile use and air travel, yet not at its current rate. Both regions must adopt low-carbon technologies, but this may be easier in Latin America, since there is far less capital sunk in a carbon intensive transportation system.},

This study introduces the binary logit and probit models that explain how truck and 5 rail are chosen as the mode by the shippers, third party logistics, or receivers. The analysis of the 6 data obtained from a nationwide establishment survey revealed that some shipment-specific 7 variables, such as distance, weight and value of commodity, along with some mode-specific 8 variables, namely haul time, and shipping cost were found to have significant effects on the 9 modal choice. Other variables that had significant association with freight mode choice include 10 perishability of the shipment, intermodal facility access, decision making units, and their past 11 experiences. Rail shipments were found to be more sensitive to the shipping cost, while road 12 shipments are more responsive to the haul time. An analysis was also performed to elucidate 13 modal selection behaviors under different fuel price scenarios. The analysis indicated a low level 14 of mode choice sensitivity to the fuel price, such that even a 50{\%} increase in the fuel cost did not 15 cause a significant modal shift between truck and rail. A larger increase of around 150{\%}, 16 however, triggered around 7 percent of shift from truck to rail.},

This paper describes the new methodology developed under this effort and compares the results of the existing manual method and the new systematic approach. The methodology developed under this study takes a two-step approach. First, the preliminary fuel efficiency rates are estimated based on vehicle stock models for different classes of vehicles. Then, a reconciliation model is used to adjust the initial fuel consumption rates from the vehicle stock models and match the VMT information for each vehicle class and the reported total fuel consumption. This reconciliation model utilizes a systematic approach that produces documentable and reproducible results. The basic framework utilizes a mathematical programming formulation to minimize the deviations between the fuel economy estimates published in the previous year's Highway Statistics and the results from the vehicle stock models, subject to the constraint that fuel consumptions for different vehicle classes must sum to the total fuel consumption estimate published in Table MF-21 of the current year Highway Statistics.},

Thus, to facilitate the merging maneuvers and minimize potential collisions during the DLM operation, this study has developed a system control process that can integrate the VSL with the DLM so as to maximize the total effectiveness of the highway work-zone operation. The proposed integrated control process has used the optimal VSL control model as a supplementary strategy of the entire DLM operation, and coordinated the sequence of VMS messages generated from the DLM and VSL algorithms. From the simulation experiment, the integrated algorithm of the DLM and VSL controls has shown to respond well to time-varying traffic conditions and yielded more work-zone throughputs than the DLM control without VSL. It has also demonstrated that the integrated control results in an increase in the average speed and a decrease in the speed variation. In particular, the VSL effect is evident as a supplementary role for the dynamic merge control under the fluctuating traffic demand patterns.},

abstract = {Recently, transit agencies have been opening up their route configuration and schedule data to the public, as well as providing online APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) to real-time bus positions and arrival estimates. Based on this infrastructure of providing transit data over the internet, we devel- oped an algorithm to calculate the travel times of K-shortest paths in a public transportation network where all wait and travel times are only known at real-time. Although there is a large body of work in routing algorithms in transit networks, we take cues from an algorithm to find shortest paths in road networks, called Transit Node routing. Our approach is based on a simple observation intuitively used by humans: when you take transit, you will look for a particular set of transfer points that connect transit routes that lead from the origin and destination. We precompute a lookup table of feasible paths between the origin stop of every bus route to the terminus of every other bus route using the transfer points. This precomputation of paths significantly reduces the computation time and number of real-time arrival requests to transit agency servers, the bottleneck in computing this problem. The computational complexity of the algorithm is linear in real-time and implementation results show that queries from a webserver are returned in 3 seconds in the worst-case.},

As a result, there is a need for new stricter criteria in order 3 to prioritize some projects over others in a more socio-economically efficient way. The 4 Project Appraisal is a common tool used for this matter. 5 The Value of Time (VOT) is a relevant element in transport project appraisal. On the 6 one hand, it is essential for the calculation of the gain derived from the reduction of time for 7 users obtained by the development of a project. On the other hand, the ex-ante prediction of 8 demand of the planned infrastructure is made on the basis of the VOT and, consequently, its 9 estimation is a key element for the determination of the global modal split. 10 This paper analyzes the VOT influence on the profitability of railway projects. 11 Specifically, the components affected by the VOT are studied on the basis of a railway 12 project appraisal manual. The analysis is performed from two different points of view. First, a 13 theoretical formulation is deduced for the relation between the VOT, included in the cash 14 flow of the different components identified, and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR), 15 representative of the profitability of an infrastructure project. Second, a practical case for a 16 suburban railway line is studied in order to identify the sensitivity of the IRR to the VOT, that 17 is to say, the influence of the VOT on the profitability of the project.},

The Chinese port industry has gone through several stages of reform, progressing from a 32 central–control system with inadequate investment and poor efficiency to a large-scale and highly competitive one 33 with various types of public–private partnership. Today, the Chinese port industry is characterized by rapid growth, 34 large-scale foreign investment, and liberalization of port policy. Among the top ten container ports in the world, 35 China has six. This accomplishment is largely due to port reforms; in recent years corporatization and joint venture 36 have become the hallmark of port development in China. This paper details the evolution of China's port reform, 37 and policy changes supported by port statistics,, including a brief case study of Shanghai's port development. It 38 analyzes policy changes in port governance, legal framework, and funding mechanism. It integrates key milestones 39 in policy change and port development. The paper concludes that through port reform China's port industry has 40 become an enabler of its economic development and international trade. Its unique model of port governance and 41 administration provides an effective tool for macro control at national level and private sector investment in cargo 42 handling system and management know-how. Whether the port reform would take the next step toward more private 43 sector involvement and what type of public-private partnership would take place remain to be seen.},

abstract = {Funding constraints limit the ability of local and state agencies to fund quality data collection efforts. At the same time, public agencies that oversee transportation programs must support planning and policy making with empirical data. As a result, transportation data users and suppliers are consistently pressed to find better, faster, and cheaper ways of collecting data. Thus, continuous improvement in travel survey data methods, procedures, and tools is an imperative, not a luxury. This paper presents the implementation and results of a continuous improvement process directed by the New York Metropolitan Transportation Council (NYMTC) with regard to its regional household travel survey. The paper reports on how lessons learned from NYMTC's 1997-1998 household travel survey along with feedback from respondents were used to plan and design the 2010 household travel survey. New methods and tools that were implemented in a 2010 survey pretest are identified, and conclusions concerning the recommended survey design are provided.},

More local influences, such as proximity to urban highway links, also may positively or negatively influence the desirability of a location. This study used a cross section of home sales in Hennepin County, Minnesota, from the years 2001 through 2004, along with a set of disaggregate regional accessibility measures, to estimate the value of access to employment and resident workers. The effects, whether as amenity or disamenity, were estimated for locations near major freeway links that had recently under- gone major construction to add capacity (or were scheduled to undergo such construction) at the time of the home sales. The richness of the home sales data set allowed for control of a number of structural attributes, as well as some site characteristics. Additional neighborhood characteristics (such as income levels and local educational quality) were added from supplemental data sources. Empirical results indicated that households highly valued access to employment. Access to other resident workers (i.e., competition for jobs) was considered a disamenity. Proximity to local highway access points associated positively with sale price, whereas proximity to the highway link itself associated negatively with that price. The study concluded with some implications for research and practice of the concept and measurement of the relationship between location and land value.},

abstract = {The aging of the American population has raised a number of concerns about senior mobility. The New Freedom (NF) program, which was designed to go above and beyond the transportation requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, has been used to fund transportation for seniors. The primary purpose of this paper is to present the results of an exploratory analysis of the social, physical, and functional health and mobility outcomes experienced by seniors who are clients of NF services and the associated Coordinated Human Services Transportation Plan (CHSTP) processes. The paper uses data from primary surveys of the following groups from seven urban, suburban, and rural locations: (a) NF-funded transportation service users, (b) program managers operating the services, and (c) locally selected lead and partner organizations involved in developing the CHSTPs. Results show that concerns about senior mobility vary significantly by a number of functional, social, and physical disability indicators, including instrumental activities of daily living. These indicators are substantially more complex than a chronological accounting of age. A principal component analysis yielded two constructs underlying seniors' mobility: a transportation deprivation component and an independence and health deprivation component. Each component has implications for different types of services. To the extent that the NF program has supported transportation services that are supplemental to integrated care for seniors and thereby enable a continuum of care, the program has enhanced community-based interventions to meet the complex mobility needs of seniors in the seven locations.},

abstract = {This paper presents initial results and conclusions from the two‐year field study conducted by the National Evaluation of a Mileage‐based Road User Charge. The study, which evaluates technical feasibility and user acceptance of mileage‐based charging as a potential replacement for the current motor fuel tax, was authorized by the 2005 federal transportation reauthorization act (SAFETEA‐LU). It is the first such study to access road user charging on a national and multijurisdictional scale. During the two years of field operations, which concluded in July, 2010, approximately 2650 volunteer participants were selected from a pool of approximately 78,000 candidates to evaluate a system for automatic collection, reporting, and invoicing of mileage‐based road use charges. Participants were recruited and selected from twelve areas throughout the country to mirror a variety of demographic characteristics of the U.S. population as a whole. The road user charge system is able to collect and apportion mileage charges to multiple jurisdictions, including federal, state, and local. The system utilizes an on‐board computer (OBC) installed in the participant's vehicle. The OBC contains a GPS receiver with an associated geographic database to identify the taxing jurisdiction(s) in which the vehicle is travelling. The OBC obtains vehicle miles travelled (VMT) information from the electronic odometer data available on the vehicle's OBD‐II bus. Mileage charges for each relevant jurisdiction are computed by the OBC and uploaded to a billing center via a wireless data link. Throughout the study, participants are administered a series of questionnaires to assess their attitudes and perceptions regarding the system and the overall concept of mileage‐based charging. Since the field study concluded only shortly before the submission deadline for this paper, full data analysis is not yet complete. However, this paper provides initial results that highlight some of the important findings of the study.},

This new model accounts for not only the reliability aspect that the traveler 5 wishes to arrive at his/her destination within the travel time budget, but also the unreliability 6 aspect of encountering worst travel times beyond the acceptable travel time budget. The $\alpha$-reliable 7 mean-excess path finding model is consistent with the commuters' route choice behavior revealed 8 in several recent empirical studies. That is, commuters are not only interested in saving their 9 travel time but also in reducing their risk of being late. The proposed model is formulated as a 10 stochastic mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem. To solve this difficult problem, a 11 double-relaxation scheme is developed to find the $\alpha$-reliable mean-excess paths. Numerical 12 results are presented to demonstrate the proposed model and solution procedure.},

Con- ventional control delay calculation models are not effective when applied to DDI because of the possible internal queue spillback. This paper describes a method to calculate control delay at DDI using a new analyt- ical model. The model was first developed for control delay calculations of external movements at conventional diamond interchanges. Through the addition of a function to calculate delay of internal movements, the model was successfully used at a DDI to calculate control delay of both internal movements and external movements. Simulation studies are also conducted to validate the new model. This study can be used either as a stand-alone delay calculation model or as a supplement to existing simu- lation methods. The model also shows promise for use in other signalized interchange configurations with two or more adjacent intersections.},

However, there is no evaluation study with regards to the ranking criteria and little research has been conducted on the performance of the FB method. The objective of this study was to fill this gap by conducting a thorough evaluation of the FB method for black spot identification. First, an evaluation is conducted on the FB versus the empirical Bayesian (EB) method. It is confirmed that the FB method is superior to the EB with respect to key ranking criteria (the posterior Poisson mean (PM) of crash frequency and potential for safety improvement (PSI)) based on evaluation criteria that included sensitivity and specificity, and the sum of the PM. Then, a total of 8 ranking criteria, which include PM, posterior expected, mode and median ranks, and probability of being the worst, have been examined for the best selected FB model. Specifically, the mode rank of the posterior distribution of the Poisson mean was proposed as a ranking criterion as it provided the best results for top ranked sites. Similarly, the sum of the Poisson mean in the evaluation period was proposed as an evaluation criterion especially when a limited number of top ranked sites are selected.},

Employment Transportation are special programs to transport low-wage workers to jobs. The 54 paper uses multiple sources of primary and administrative data on users and programs in 23 ET sites. ET 55 cost-per-ride measures are compared to cost-per-ride measures of transit services that are operating in 56 the same area (called " peer transit services ") and a cost per user per year is estimated to determine the 57 level of transportation investments on the mobility of low-wage workers. ET services cost more on a per 58 ride basis to deliver than peer transit services but there is wide variation in the level of investments and 59 subsidies among different types of users, areas and types of service. The median estimated cost per ET 60 service user per year is in the ballpark of the annual investment per recipient by certain social and 61 human services and workforce development programs that support low-income individuals to achieve 62 improved economic outcomes, but far less than other human services programs. ET annual expenditures 63 are the greatest for low-wage individuals traveling to work, and less so for low-income individuals 64 traveling to job training, looking for jobs or for shopping and discretionary trips. Implications are drawn 65 for human services transportation coordination and for data and reporting requirements. 66 67 Keywords: Job Access and Reverse Commute, Employment Transportation, low-wage workers, labor 68 market outcomes, cost per ride 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {Wavelets / filter banks have become a popular area of research, especially in pavement distress. The main reason for their popularity in pavement distress detection and distress segmentation is due to the ability to use them to separate signals frequency subbands and to analyze the data in the time / spacial domains concurrently. Because of this, filter banks have been studied in automated pavement distress detection and distress segmentation systems research. Many researchers exploring these automated systems, however, have focused on the ability to use the frequency and special domain data to improve detection and segmentation at the expense of compression. Thus, incorporating standard compression coders like SPIHT or JPEG2000 into automated filter bank based distress detection and segmentation systems have not been presented. In this paper, we explore reasons filter bank based pavement distress detection and segmentation systems have not had detection and segmentation and standard compression coders processes have been successfully incorporated into one system. We also propose that by restructuring previously presented filter bank based distress detection and segmentation systems that standard compression coders can coexist in these automated filter bank based systems.},

Unlike previous studies, this work used several distinct data sources to analyze the effects of congestion on I-5 in the Portland, Oregon, metropolitan area: Global Positioning System data from commercial trucks, Oregon Department of Transportation corridor travel time loop data, and incident data. A new methodology and algorithms combine these data sources and estimate the impact of recurrent and nonrecurrent congestion on reliability and delays, costs, and emissions of freight movements. The results suggest that traditional traffic sensor data tend to underestimate the impact of congestion on travel times and variability of commercial vehicles. Congestion is detrimental not only for carriers' and shippers' costs but also for the planet because of increases in greenhouse gas emissions and for the local community because of increases in oxides of nitrogen, particulate matter, and other harmful pollutants. The developed methodology can provide useful freight operation and performance data for the freight community, transportation decision makers, and other transportation stakeholders.},

To address the challenges associated with highway design, two theoretical models were implemented in an introductory transportation engineering course. First, the theoretical framework proposed by the threshold concepts model was used to identify a candidate-concept for the instructional redesign process. Two major characteristics of threshold concepts, integrativity and transformativity were used to identify horizontal alignment as a candidate-concept for the highway design process. Second, concept mapping was used to create operational measures of integrativity of complex concepts such as horizontal alignment. Using the resulted maps and measures, several changes to the structure of lecture materials and project tasks were made. Finally, reflective assessment items were administered after each redesigned instructional task and at the end of the course to find evidence of potential transformativity of the proposed instructional changes. The implementation of the above-mentioned theoretical framework allowed the instructor to successfully streamline the instructional process, with benefits on students' perceptions and attitudes toward learning of highway design.},

Differences in the physical and social environments 31 in these countries help to explain much higher levels of bicycling in Europe than the US. 32 Previous bicycling research has established a potential association between environmental 33 factors and bicycling. However, empirical evidence of whether physical and social environment 34 have true impacts on individual bicycling, as well as what their relative importance is, is still 35 limited. Using data from an online survey conducted in 2006 in six small cities in the western 36 United States, this study aims to address these questions by employing structural equations 37 modeling, which accounts for endogeneities between variables and thereby more robust than 38 single equation models. The empirical findings show that individual attitudes, especially the 39 attitude of liking bicycling, have the greatest impact on bicycling behavior. The social 40 environment emerges as the second most important factor. Physical environment variables also 41 influence bicycling after accounting for residential self-selection. This study provides a stronger 42 empirical basis for policy decisions promoting bicycling by contributing to an improved 43 understanding of the influences of physical and social environments on bicycling. 44 45},

abstract = {Train derailment risk associated with rail transportation is an ongoing concern to the rail industry, government and the public. A variety of approaches have been considered or adopted to analyze, manage and reduce risk. Upgrading track quality has been identified as one possible derailment prevention strategy. Freight railroad track quality is commonly classified into five principal classes by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) based on track structure, track geometry and inspection frequency and method. The higher the track class, the more stringent the track safety standards, thereby allowing a higher maximum train speed. Upgrading track class is likely to prevent certain track-related derailments; however, this may also increase the risk pertaining to certain types of equipment failures that are more likely to occur at higher speeds. Consequently, more sophisticated approaches need to be developed to examine the interactions among accident causes that may be differently affected by track infrastructure upgrade. This paper analyzes several critical parameters that can be used to predict train derailment risk using derailment statistics from the FRA accident database and related literature. A general method was developed to assess accident-cause-specific derailment risk by FRA track class. The safety benefits of track class upgrade in reducing the risks due to certain accident causes were quantitatively evaluated. The model presented in this paper can be extended by incorporating more risk factors in order to accurately assess the effectiveness of various derailment prevention efforts for reducing transportation risk.},

abstract = {1 2 Points of Dispensing (PODs) are commonly considered as a means of dispensing 3 medication or prophylaxis following a biological attack or disease outbreak. The ability 4 to quickly dispense post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) using multiple PODs has the 5 potential to save a large proportion of those who were exposed, while failure in the PEP 6 dispensing campaign could have dire public health consequences. While pre-event 7 planning is critical to ensure a successful POD implementation, much of the planning 8 efforts to facilitate timely PEP dispensing have been focused on staffing needs and the 9 internal structure within PODs, and less attention has been placed on the logistical 10 challenges of operations that occur outside of PODs. This study proposed to consider 11 external process (e.g., parking and traffic control) of POD planning with the internal 12 process (e.g., staffing and equipment allocation for medical service) in an integrated 13 manner. A VISSIM-based modeling tool was developed to implement this concept by 14 simulating the entire process of POD operation. The interaction of vehicles movements, 15 patients' behavior, and internal medical service procedures was successfully modeled 16 through VISSIM's Component Objective Model (COM) programmable interface. By 17 generating detailed performance measures (e.g., traffic and people queue), impacts of 18 planning assumptions and implementation strategy on the effectiveness of POD planning 19 can be studied. A case study was conducted to evaluate a POD plan in West Roxbury, 20 Massachusetts using the developed modeling tool. This tool was able to identify the 21 bottlenecks in POD operation and provide insights for future improvement. 22 23 TRB 2011 Annual Meeting Paper revised from original submittal.},

abstract = {In past decades, transportation research has been driven by mathematical equations and has relied on scarce data. With increasing amounts of data being collected from intelligent transportation system sensors, data-driven or data-based research is expected to expand soon. Most online systems are designed to handle one type of data, such as from freeway or arterial sensors. Even if transportation data are ubiquitous, data usability is difficult to improve. A framework is proposed for a regionwide web-based transportation decision system that adopts digital roadway maps as the base and provides data layers for integrating multiple data sources (e.g., traffic sensor, incident, accident, and travel time). This system, called the Digital Roadway Interactive Visualization and Evaluation Network (DRIVE Net), provides a practical method for facilitating data retrieval and integration and enhances data usability. Moreover, DRIVE Net offers a platform for optimizing transportation decisions that also serves as an ideal tool for visualizing historical observations spatially and temporally. Not only can DRIVE Net be used as a practical tool for various transportation analyses, with the use of its online computation engine, DRIVE Net can also help evaluate the benefit of a specific transportation solution. In its current implementation, DRIVE Net demonstrates potential to be used soon as a standard tool to incorporate more data sets from different fields (e.g., health and household data) and offer a platform for real-time decision making.},

abstract = {With the declining purchasing power of the gas tax the U.S. Federal Highway Trust Fund has experienced shortfalls in revenue despite increasing transportation infrastructure maintenance and investment needs.(1) This paper develops three green transportation financing polices based on the fixed vehicle mileage traveled (VMT) fee concept (2), and analyzes their impact on revenue generation, congestion management, energy/environmental sustainability, and equity at the national and state levels in the U.S. One policy is a green VMT fee that is linked to vehicle fuel economy, the second a mileage-based emissions tax correlated with vehicle greenhouse gas (GHG) and pollution emission ratings, and the third a variable VMT fee based on regional congestion levels. A demand model with vehicle miles traveled as the dependent variable is developed for the analysis. The green transportation financing options are compared against a base-case policy defined as a 10-cent/gallon increase in the Federal gas tax. To gauge policy effectiveness, we measure changes in total Federal and State revenue, VMT, fuel consumption, pollution emissions, and welfare by various demographic groups., Under all policy scenarios, total vehicle miles traveled and consumer surplus decrease with lowest-income ({\textless}{\$}25,000/year) households showing the largest percent reduction if no compensatory schemes are employed. The distributional impact of the proposed green transportation financing policies is similar to that of the existing gas tax, with green VMT fees and emissions taxes being relatively more regressive, and nation-wide congestion pricing being relatively more progressive.},

To this date, however, no detailed analysis has been conducted with regard to rapidly growing passenger transport energy use in South Korea. Using bottom-up data developed from a variety of recent sources, we described the trends of transport activity, energy use, and CO2 emissions from South Korea's transport sector since 1986 with a particular focus on its passenger transport. By decomposing the trends in passenger transport energy use into activity, modal structure, and energy intensity, we showed that while travel activity has been the major driver of the increase in passenger transport energy use in South Korea, the increase was to some extent offset by the recent favorable structural shift toward bus travel and away from car travel. We also demonstrated that while bus travel has become less energy intensive since the Asian Financial Crisis, car travel has become increasingly energy intensive. {\textcopyright} 2010.},

In this paper, we develop multiple regression and discrete choice models to analyze the relationship between air quality nonattainment designation and VMT and vehicle ownership based on data from the 2001 and 2009 National Household Travel Surveys. Results show the VMT reduction effect of air quality nonattainment designation and the associated planning efforts and funding preference ranges from 1.2{\%} to 4.5{\%} at the county level, and the average effect is about 1.6{\%}. In addition, air quality nonattainment designation encourages households to own fewer vehicles and to choose fuel efficient vehicles (e.g. small cars). Additional research is in order to both assess past actions and justify/improve future efforts in reducing VMT and pollution emissions in air quality nonattainment areas.},

abstract = {As federal and state fuel tax rates stagnate in the United States and the average vehicle fuel efficiency increases, revenues from the fuel tax will likely decrease. An alternative source of revenue to the fuel tax should be considered and implemented to avoid the risk that the Highway Trust Fund may not be able to function as a dedicated user pay fund and may require yearly bailouts from the general fund. Practitioners and researchers have been considering alternatives to the fuel tax for years. The alternative revenue mechanism must ensure equity, or it will not be accepted as a politically viable option. The American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials and several congressional commissions have recommended that, in the interim, the federal gasoline tax be increased by 10 cents per gallon to ensure that the Highway Trust Fund is able to continue to pay its obligations and that, in the long run, the fuel tax be replaced or supplemented with a mileage-based user charge. This paper analyzes the distributional effects of an increased gasoline tax and vehicle mileage fees by considering both their effectiveness in revenue generation and their equity for different population groups at the federal and state levels. Both horizontal and vertical equity are considered for age groups, income groups, ethnicity groups, and geographic locations. With a better understanding of the effects of alternative transportation financing options, policy meters can design or select the most effective policy and the revenue that is generated can be used most effectively and equitably.},

The possible role of improved recharge availability in developing the BEV-PHEV market and the priorities that different charging options should receive from the government require better understanding. This study reviews the charging issue and conceptualizes it into three interactions between the charge network and the travel network. With travel data from 3,755 drivers in the National Household Travel Survey, this paper estimates the distribution among U.S. consumers of ( a ) PHEV fuel-saving benefits by different recharge availability improvements, ( b ) range anxiety by different BEV ranges, and ( c ) willingness to pay for workplace and public charging in addition to home recharging. With the Oak Ridge National Laboratory MA3T model, the impact of three recharge improvements is quantified by the resulting increase in BEV-PHEV sales. Compared with workplace and public recharging improvements, home recharging improvement appears to have a greater impact on BEV-PHEV sales. The impact of improved recharging availability is shown to be amplified by a faster reduction in battery cost.},

abstract = {Freeway traffic simulations must account for the probabilistic nature of model parameters to capture observed variations in traffic behavior. Fundamental diagrams specify freeway section parameters describing the flow-density relationship in macroscopic simulation models. A triangular fundamental diagram—specified with the free-flow speed, congestion wave speed, and capacity—is commonly adopted in first-order cell transmission models. Capacity (defined as the maximum flow observed in a given freeway section over a particular day) exhibits significant day-to-day variation, and capacity variations across different sections of the freeway are significantly correlated. Free-flow speeds do not exhibit significant variation, but congestion wave speeds exhibit variation uncorrelated with section capacities or parameters from other sections. A probabilistic graphical approach is presented to model the probabilistic distribution of fundamental diagram parameters of an entire freeway section chosen for simulation. More than 1 year of data from dozens of loop detectors along a 25-mi section of the I-210 freeway westbound in Los Angeles, California, are used for demonstration. The parameters of the distribution are estimated with the expectation-maximization algorithm to account for missing observations. Model selection from among plausible models indicates that a first-order spatial Markov model is appropriate to capture the capacity distribution, which is the joint probability distribution of freeway section capacities. Stochastic simulations with sampled parameters demonstrate that capacity variations can lead to significant variations in congestion patterns and freeway performance.},

These microscopic traffic simulations require vehicle movements to be modeled and calibrated. Since individual vehicles exhibit heterogeneity, the parameters within these submodels must incorporate some disturbances. However, due to limited observational data, the various parameters among individuals have not been well validated. We collected video data from an 800m section of an urban expressway over 1 week using 11 video cameras. By tracking individual vehicles on-screen, we were able to obtain vehicle trajectories. We applied this manually obtained data to investigate individual heterogeneity of vehicle movement; in particular, we focused on the multi-anticipative car following behavior by each section i.e., straight section, curved section and merging section and relationships between multi-anticipative car-following behavior and road geometry. 3 INTRODUCTION In the most of the countries, the road traffic accidents are regarded as one of the serious},

DES also simplifies chain-code based line detecting methods from four stages to three. The new DES chain-code based criteria proposed can extract line segments in O(n) time, and curbs errors due to digitalization effectively.

abstract = {From a human health standpoint, one of the most harmful components of vehicular exhaust is ultrafine particles (UFP), particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 0.1 micro m. Concentrations of these particles in the urban environment are highest near roadways. Bicyclists and pedestrians traveling in near-road areas with high concentrations of UFP often have high respiration rates that make them particularly susceptible to uptake of these dangerous pollutants. In some roadway environments, physical barriers or "sound walls" border high-volume roads to reduce noise pollution. Non-motorized facilities may be located within the right-of-way enclosed by these barriers, or on the opposite side of the barrier from the roadway. The work presented here assesses the effects of roadside noise barriers on air quality for bicycle and pedestrian facilities sited alongside major freeways, using a unique examination of measured traffic and air quality characteristics in Portland, Oregon to assess the impact of noise barriers on UFP exposure. Noise barriers were found to reduce roadside UFP concentration levels by at least 12{\%} and as much as 84{\%} along a bicycle/pedestrian pathway, indicating that they are an effective means of mediating UFP exposure in multi-modal transportation environments. UFP levels on the "exposed" road side of the noise barriers were highly variable, and were observed to relate somewhat to wind conditions but not to traffic conditions. On the "shielded" side of the barriers the concentration peaks seen on the roadway side were damped, resulting in steadier exposure levels for road users behind the noise barriers. Despite varying conditions of wind speed and direction and traffic speed and flow, noise barriers were consistently effective at mitigating bicyclist/pedestrian exposure on a near-road pathway.},

abstract = {There is a serious gap in communication with vulnerable populations as it relates to transportation in emergency situations. Earlier case studies notwithstanding, Hurricane Katrina's lessons provided major impetus to legislation, studies, and action (1). Much legislation advises working with community-based organizations (CBOs) to bridge the gaps, but very little guidance shows HOW to do this. The Transit Cooperative Research Program funded the effort to create such a toolkit for transportation and emergency managers. The study culminates in spring, 2011; this paper presents interim findings from literature and interviews. Transportation agencies are not in charge of communication with vulnerable populations in emergencies; emergency management is in charge but may delegate. However, transportation, public health, public information, and other agencies have significant community outreach capabilities inherent in their non-emergency roles. Learning how to identify and tap into existing resources and networks of public, private and nonprofit agencies working with vulnerable populations and learning how to establish and maintain relationships with those entities represents the most effective way for transportation and emergency managers to communicate with vulnerable populations about their transportation options before, during, and after an emergency. Inclusive planning helps everyone. Creating accommodations for people who can't hear or understand the " primary language " also helps tourists and residents who may lose hearing aids, their hearing, or their composure in the emergency. Likewise, inclusively planning for people with personal mobility challenges helps accommodate people with temporary mobility problems, such as recent surgery or injury, or loss of their vehicle in the event.},

abstract = {The experiences of several recent evacuations have demonstrated how a mass evacuation of a major city can affect traffic throughout an entire region. This realization has brought the need for analyzing and evaluating evacuation plans at a regional level. Numerous recent studies have devoted themselves to the topic of simulating large-scale evacuations. However, few studies have developed procedures for the validation of large-scale models. This paper discusses validation within the context of the recent development of the regional multimodal evacuation model for New Orleans, Louisiana. The New Orleans model is unique because it is among the first ever to incorporate qualitative and quantitative model validation procedures based on field data collected during an actual mass evacuation. The paper discusses the various statistics considered for validation, including their inherent advantages and disadvantages. It also presents the results obtained from the validation exercises of the New Orleans model. The study concluded that regression analyses were the most appropriate for statistically analyzing the spatial and temporal data correlations between the traffic patterns produced within the simulation and those actually observed during the Hurricane Katrina evacuation. From a qualitative standpoint, colorized spatiotemporal maps were also found to be quite effective for visualizing traffic speed and volume patterns. The maps were also invaluable for quickly identifying and analyzing bottleneck areas at both the local and regional levels.},

The main objective of this study is to investigate the performance of multilane roundabouts under congestion. The study also assesses how well software packages including RODEL, SIDRA and VISSIM predict capacity, queue length, and delay for the congested roundabouts. This study used data from East Dowling Road Roundabouts in Anchorage, Alaska. The roundabouts are currently operating with extensive queues during the evening peak hours. The most unique aspect of our research was the use of multiple video camcorders to capture vehicle turning movements in the roundabouts and the progression of vehicle queues at the entrances. With the resulting video records, we were able to accurately count the number of vehicles in the queues at any single minute during the peak hours. No existing roundabout studies ever recorded and analyzed such extended queues with the spatial and temporal resolution we were able to achieve with the collected videos. The results of the study found that unbalanced entrance flow patterns (i.e., one entrance has significant higher flow than others) can intensify the queue and delay for the overall roundabout. We also found that all three software packages overestimated capacities. SIDRA and VISSIM underestimated delays and queue lengths. RODEL overestimated delays and queue lengths at most of the entrances.},

For each model specification, the parameters are calibrated for the entire sample of individual drivers using NGSIM trajectory data. Factor Analysis is conducted to understand the pattern of relationships among parameters based on calibrated data. Correlation coefficients show statistically significant correlation between parameters. Simulation experiments are conducted with vehicle parameter sets generated with and without considering such correlation. First, parameter values are sampled from the empirical mass functions, and simulated results show significant difference in output measures when parameter correlation is captured (relative to ignoring it). The impact of correlation varies substantially with model specification. Next, parameters are sampled under the assumption that parameters follow the MVN distribution. The results suggest that use of parametric distribution with known correlation structure can reduce the error due to ignoring correlation; however, the effect also varies depending on model specification.},

Bus bunching takes place when headways between buses are irregular leading to 3 longer waiting times for riders, overcrowding in some buses, low numbers of passengers in the remaining 4 buses, and an overall decrease on the level of service and capacity. Automatic vehicle location (AVL) 5 and automatic passenger count (APC) technologies provide tremendous amounts of archived data for 6 transit planners and operators to measure and visualize transit system performance. Focusing on bus 7 bunching, this paper presents a method to identify and visualize bus bunching problems in a time-space 8 diagram, as well as an additional method to identify the factors that may cause bus bunching events. 9 Sensitivity analyses are performed to compare results across different threshold sets. This research is 10 based on a half-year's worth of data for TriMet's Route 15. TriMet is the transit provider for the Portland, 11 Oregon metropolitan region.

abstract = {Time headway between vehicles is an important traffic flow characteristic affecting flow, level of service, driver behavior, safety and capacity of a transportation system. Many studies in the literature have focused on headway analysis under lane-disciplined and homogeneous traffic, whereas, fewer studies have been conducted under mixed traffic. Many studies even in heterogeneous traffic have focused on aggregate level analysis. Aggregate-level analysis does not account for differences across different lead-lag vehicle pairs and their relative composition in mixed traffic. To address these limitations, this paper aims to develop and analyze classwise time gap and following headway distribution models for different lead-lag pairs in mixed traffic using data from urban mid-block sections in Chennai. It is observed that following headways constitute only 12 36{\%} of time gaps on the two lane section. Other gaps include more complex interactions including imperfect lane discipline, adjacent movement, multiple followers of a leader etc. The results from the study indicate significant variation in time gap and following headway distributions and/or parameters across different lead-lag vehicle pairs. The proposed classwise headway and time gap distributions are compared with corresponding aggregate distributions. F and t-tests indicate that aggregate distributions provide biased means and variance estimates for many classes. Significant differences are noted between time gap and headway distributions of classes in mixed traffic. Further, the variation in classwise headway distributions is investigated across 2 lane and 3 lane roads. A Monte- Carlo procedure is used to generate stream headways as a mixture of the underlying class-wise headway distributions. The suitability of Generalized Extreme Value distribution for many classes of time gaps was observed. Interestingly, the headway distributions appear to be stable across 2 and 3 lane facilities for some categories of lead lag pairs. Variations in headways based on the number of lanes are observed for other classes and are affected by lane width, lateral placement, vehicle class, lane discipline etc. The results have important applications to mixed traffic simulation and evaluation of vehicle class-based traffic management strategies under heterogeneous traffic.},

In this paper, the profiles of cumulative flows are piecewise linearized. Both the step function (SF) and linear interpolation (LI) are used to approximate cumulative flows over time. New formulations of the SF-type and LI-type link travel time models are developed. We prove that these two types of link travel time models ensure first-in-first-out (FIFO) and continuity of travel times with respect to flows, and have other desirable properties. Since the LI-type link travel time model does not satisfy the causality property, a modified LI-type (MLI-type) link travel time model is proposed in this paper. We prove that the MLI-type link travel time model ensures causality, strong FIFO and travel time continuity, and that the MLI-type link travel time function is strictly monotone under the condition that the travel time of each vehicle on a link is greater than the free flow travel time on that link. Numerical examples are set up to illustrate the properties and accuracy of the three models. ?? 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

Deterministic, stochastic, boundedly rational, and behavioral user equilibrium principles are studied analytically and numerically on a large real-world network. Behavioral theories underlying these assignment principles range from perfect to bounded rationality, from normative constructs (what decision makers should do) to positive constructs (what decision makers actually do), and from utility-maximizing to rule-based decision-making paradigms. The discussion highlights an emerging positive modeling approach that incorporates empirically derived behavior rules in the analysis of route choice. Results show significant discrepancies between link flow estimates arising from different behavioral foundations.

To capture the impact of corridor congestion on freight vehicles new tools and 4 methodologies must be developed to analyze data from commercial vehicles and produce 5 performance measures like travel time, speed and travel time reliability. Long freight corridors 6 are comprised of segments with potentially different reliability characteristics. The objective of 7 this paper is to develop a programming logic that will use available truck GPS data to: (a) 8 identify corridor natural segments or regions (urban centers, interstate junctions, rural areas) and 9 (b) estimate corridor wide impacts of travel time unreliability. The case study presented here 10 investigates the Interstate 5 (I-5) corridor in Oregon. After identifying corridor segments this 11 research applies statistical techniques to compute vehicle travel time and reliability for freight 12 movements within each segment. The proposed methodology has been successful to indentify 13 distinct segments and characteristics of travel time reliability in freight corridors. This travel time 14 information was used to compute cost impacts within rural and urban areas along the I-5 15 corridor. The development of such tools as the one presented here, are an integral step in the 16 processing of disaggregate truck data to gather information necessary for producing performance 17 measures for the freight vehicles. 18 19},

Yagi et al. 2 ABSTRACT 1 The analysis of intra-household joint activity/travel is an important element of activity-based travel demand 2 modeling. These are joint trips/tours made by two or more members of the same household performing 3 activities together. This paper presents an empirical analysis of weekday and weekend joint travel tours in a 4 developing country, especially focusing on weekday travel data and comparing the results of two surveys, 5 namely, a large-scale household travel survey and an activity diary survey conducted in the two metropolitan 6 cities of Indonesia, namely, Jakarta and Surabaya. Joint tours were analyzed in terms of their travel mode, 7 activity type, and household members involved. Comparison of weekday travel data from the two surveys 8 suggests that both surveys show similar tendencies regarding the ratio of joint tours for different modes and 9 activity types. However, the number of persons per joint tour as well as the joint tour ratio itself is larger in the 10 activity diary dataset in the case of Jakarta, probably because it captures more shorter-distance travels/activities 11 which tend to be overlooked in the household travel survey. Furthermore, it was shown that Sunday joint 12 activities have by far the largest joint tour ratio for all modes, while weekdays have larger number of activities 13 than weekends. In addition, unlike observations in developed countries, Jakarta and Surabaya datasets have a 14 considerable number of joint tours of which activities are categorized as mandatory. Moreover, international 15 comparison between the US and Jakarta cases revealed some distinguishable characteristics mainly caused by 16 differences in mode shares and household characteristics. The result of this study was one of the important 17 bases for conducting an activity-based travel behavior analysis for metropolitan areas of Indonesia. 18},

By doing so, the scheduler create a more attractive transit system that generates the opportunity for increasing the number of riders. In this research, the problem of creating timetables with maximum synchronization is modeled as a mixed integer programming (MIP) problem. The objective of this model is to minimize the total waiting times of passengers at transfer nodes. For this purpose, the model takes advantage of uneven headways. Some of features that distinguish this research are more realistic objective function, and considering adjacent runs before and after the planning horizon. These features make the research more practical. The problem is solved using CPLEX as an exact method. Besides, approximate solutions can be achieved by setting up different time limits on this software. As numerical example, these methods are used for solving the problem in a medium sized network (Sioux Falls). After the synchronization in the sample network, results show significant reduction in waiting times at the transfer nodes.},

This study analyzes 41 the travel diary data from Bengbu (a middle-size city) and Shenyang (a large-size city) to 42 investigate the characteristics of car use and the relationships between car use and activity 43 patterns in China. Car use behaviors are classified into four types based on the collected data. 44 The relationships between car use and related attributes (individual socio-demographics, 45 household attributes, and travel-activity attributes) are investigated by a multinomial logit (MNL) 46 model. Finally, due to the peculiar status of private car in China, the interdependency between 47 the car use and activity pattern is studied by a co-evolutionary method using the data collected in 48 Shenyang. 49 It shows that: 1)The " one tour " pattern, that eligible car users only use car as travel mode 50 and have only one home-based tour within one day, occupies more than 50{\%} of all car use 51 patterns; 2)The ratio of the number of car owners who do not use cars over the total car owners is 52 higher in large city than middle-size city; 3) The majority purpose of car use in China is for 53 commuting trip, especially in the middle-size city; 4) In both cities, most factors considered in 54 this paper have similar impacts on the car use; while some have different effects, such as the 55 household income that is not significant for the large city but significant in the middle-size city; 56 5) The result of the co-evolutionary model shows that 58.7{\%} of car users first determine how 57 they will use their cars prior to arranging their activity in Shenyang, indicating the peculiarity of 58 car users in China.

abstract = {Word Count: 6,240 +1,250 (three figures and two tables) = 7490 ABSTRACT Since the passage of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) in 1991, a significant number of state highway agencies have started to develop and implement statewide travel demand models to meet policy and legislative development needs. Current and future multimodal freight flows are available from the Freight Analysis Framework (FAF), to analyze national freight policy. On the passenger travel front, however, multimodal inter-regional travel demand data are still lacking while most statewide models fail to model the long-distance trips. The lack of this multimodal passenger inter-regional travel demand data limits the ability to conduct quantitative analysis for infrastructure investment and operational effectiveness needs at the national/statewide level. Drawing from previous academic research and practical projects around the world, this paper reviews several methodologies for multimodal inter-regional travel demand estimation at the national level. This international research scan is also crucial for the development of statewide travel demand models by supplementing all the currently available syntheses of domestic practices with a more international scope. The nations with their models reviewed by this paper share many similarities with a typical U.S. state, such as population, geographical scale, and the need for studying long-distance trips and other policy-oriented analyses, which further adds up the necessity of this review. Alternative approaches toward a national/statewide multi-modal inter-regional travel analysis tool, as well as the data limitations and improvement strategies, are discussed. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT},

abstract = {With an increasing number of private toll road projects constructed or proposed in the U.S. through various forms of public private partnerships, and with more states removing legal constraints on the entry of private roads into the existing public road system, there are imperative needs to analyze the welfare and financial implications of utilizing private sector capitals in road financing for both public policy decisions and private investment decisions. This paper considers an existing publicly-owned road network, and develops analytical tools for optimal utilization of private-sector investment resources through the introduction of private toll roads and regulatory policies. Results on a test network show that from a welfare-maximizing point of view, a ceiling toll of {\$}0.21/kilometer on private toll roads produces the optimal price-ceiling regulation. From a user benefit maximization perspective, the optimal ceiling price should be {\$}0.16/km. Under revenue-sharing regulation, social welfare and user benefits are both maximized with a 70{\%} revenue-sharing agreement between the public and private sectors. It is demonstrated that multiple local optima exist in the optima private toll road regulation problems on a general network, which may actually offer the public sector advantages in contracting negotiations. Concession agreements are less effective than revenue-sharing in maximizing user benefits, but are more effective than price-ceiling. Shadow toll is the least effective of all four regulatory tools examined because it creates incentives for over-investment by the private sector.},

abstract = {The authors present the results of a research project aimed at better understanding taste heterogeneity with respect to mode choice. Based on evidence of the influence of lifestyle on travel behavior, the authors postulate the existence of "modality styles", which characterize a person's predisposition towards choosing certain modes of travel based on their habits and lifestyle. To examine this hypothesis, the authors analyze data collected during a six-week travel diary survey in Germany and develop a latent class mode choice model based on it. The latent classes are the modality styles, and the model allows us infer class membership directly from the activity diary data simultaneously with the estimation of the class-specific model coefficients. The results of the data analysis and model estimation strongly support the authors hypothesis. Through data analysis, the authors find that there are "unimodal" individuals, most of them auto-oriented, who do not appear to vary their mode choice as a function of tour attributes and available alternatives, whereas "multimodal" people exhibit variation in their mode choice behavior. The estimation resulted in three classes that differed mostly by their travel time sensitivity, and that were primarily auto, bike and transit-oriented. The existence of these modality styles has implications for travel demand modeling and policy setting: To improve the chances of success, policies aimed at promoting sustainable travel behavior should be aimed at specific modality styles. Furthermore, in travel demand modeling, the assumption that all decision-makers are multimodal, i.e., that they consider all alternatives equally before traveling, may need to be reconsidered.},

A multinomial logit mode choice model for school trips was developed with stated preference (SP) surveys of parents of students from a premier school zone. The design of the SP survey was challenging in several aspects, including the lack of background data on school traffic, the wide range of motorized and nonmotorized modes available for school trips, and the substantial heterogeneity in the levels of service of the various modes. A focus group was therefore conducted first, and the preliminary information was used to design the final SP survey, a paper survey based on fractional factorial design. The results show that for school buses, there are strong cost and time sensitivities as well as a significant preference for increased comfort levels. Significant market segmentation also exists for households that have high incomes, mothers who do not work outside the home, or both. The results are expected to help the Dhaka Transport Coordination Board formulate policies pertaining to school buses. The findings can also be useful for other developing countries, especially those in Asia, which share similar socioeconomic patterns.},

In contrast with 9 traditional video-based approaches based upon virtual detection zones, the system relies upon a 10 combination of computer vision techniques to track vehicles through the series of image frames. 11 Vehicles are classified using an algorithm that calculates a vehicle's length, width, and height. 12 The system is evaluated based on its ability to collect volume, speed, and classification data 13 using more than 90 hours of traffic data collected from installations along highways in New 14 York, Maryland, and South Carolina. The evaluation is performed with respect to loop detector 15 and/or piezo sensors installed at the locations, where available, as well as with respect to ground 16 truth obtained by manually viewing the video. The system's performance is measured under 17 different environmental conditions, at different times of day/night, with and without shadows, 18 and with cameras both low and high off the ground. Overall, the system is able to produce 19 counts hourly per-lane with less than 5{\%} error, with the error reducing to less than 0.5{\%} when 20 aggregated over a 24-hour period. Average speeds are estimated with less than 1 mph error, and 21 vehicles are classified into three length-based bins with less than 3{\%} error.

This paper proposes a systematic approach to calibrating parameters for a family of four car-following models: Newell's model, Pipes' model, an optimal velocity model, and the linear General Motors model, which can be derived from each other and share the same triangular fundamental diagram in equilibrium traffic. We first discretize all models and introduce calibration objective functions based on location, speed, or acceleration for each model. Since the original car-following models all have delays, we can solve retarded linear regression problems to estimate parameters that yield the best fit between observed and calculated trajectories of following vehicles. Theoretically we point out one prominent limitation of this and other calibration methods when the leading and following vehicles have parallel linear trajectories. With vehicle trajectories provided by NGSIM, we choose car-following pairs with significant variations in speeds to minimize the impacts of parallel linear trajectories and demonstrate that the proposed calibration methods yield consistent results across different models. Discussions on future studies are presented in the conclusion section.},

abstract = {In the Washington DC and Baltimore region, a number of federal, state, metropolitan, and local agencies in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia participate in the transportation planning and investment process. Each agency has its own objectives and plays an important role, and interacts with other agencies through formal and informal processes. The influence of each agency on the overall transportation investment process is often limited within their jurisdictional boundaries. The resulting transportation system is the product of previous and current investment decisions made collectively by these agencies. When making transportation investment decisions or providing input to the decision-making process, some agencies rely on well-developed state and local master planning tools, others are often restricted by policy initiatives, emerged priorities, and funding availability. The existing investment decision-making process has its advantages and disadvantages, and there exist alternative processes for transportation funding and resource allocation. This paper describes and analyzes the decision rules and processes currently adopted by various agencies in the Washington DC and Baltimore region. Interviews have been conducted with staff members at the county, metropolitan, state and regional transportation and planning agencies. The key research questions are how multimodal highway and transit investment decisions are made in this region, how transportation funds are allocated to different modes, different jurisdictions, and different projects, and how agencies at different levels of government interact with each other. Figures and tables are developed to visually present the research findings and the actual investment process. Findings suggest that policy initiatives, political factors, and technical evaluation intertwine in the decision-making process, and conflicts often arise when regional and local interests collide. Agencies have developed qualitative and quantitative methods to handle competing objectives and various considerations. Analyzing the existing transportation planning and investment process is the first step toward the comparison of alternative investment processes (e.g. more centralized or decentralized processes), and toward modeling future transportation system states under current and alternative investment processes.},

Traditionally, rideshare arrangements between two or more unrelated individuals for commuting purposes have been relatively inflexible, long-term arrangements. Real-time ridesharing attempts to add flexibility to rideshare arrangements by allowing drivers and passengers to arrange occasional shared rides ahead of time or on short notice. The addition of this service innovation presents opportunities to overcome existing rideshare challenges but also leads to new challenges. The overall goal of this study was to provide a foundation for further real-time ridesharing research. The aims of the study were to identify, highlight, and discuss the potential benefits of and obstacles to real-time ridesharing and to point to the next steps to understand better and possibly advance this mode of travel. A definition of real-time ridesharing was given, followed by a comprehensive categorization of challenges hindering greater rideshare participation. The information gathered suggested that rather than being a single challenge to be overcome, the rideshare challenge was a series of economic, behavioral, institutional, and technological obstacles to be addressed. Potential opportunities and obstacles created by real-time innovations were then highlighted. Several recommendations are provided toward next steps to understand further how rideshare participants use real-time services, focusing on the need for multiple, comprehensive trials of real-time rideshare.},

abstract = {Data on household travel patterns represent key information to the development of travel demand models. The technology of Global Positioning Systems (GPS) may substitute or be used in association with traditional data collection approaches. However, it is important to know how the quality of this information influences the results for planning purposes, such as in travel demand analysis. The objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of different sources of travel information - GPS-recorded compared to self-reported - in travel demand models. Several structures of discrete choice models were tested to represent choice behavior: multinomial logit, mixed logit with random coefficients and nested logit, trying to include possible correlations between alternatives and heterogeneity of individuals. Subjects were recruited from a list of contacts of the Transport Laboratory at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The results showed that GPS technology collects the travel patterns more precisely reducing the bias by collecting data from short trips not reported in traditional surveys. The models estimated with GPS data showed greater significance due to less measurement error. The cost of processing GPS information must be considered. An adequate modeling with self-reported data, by more complex models incorporating heterogeneity and correlation among alternatives, allowed an equivalent adjustment to those estimated with GPS data. The self-reported data is less precise due to respondents under/overestimation of travel times. More complex models allow capturing measurement errors inherent to self-reported travel surveys.},

abstract = {This work studies the impact of the substitution of a traffic light for a modern roundabout on carbon monoxide concentration. The estimate of CO concentration is made by means of the CAL3QHC dispersion model, considering only passenger vehicles as emitting sources. Local traffic and meteorological parameters had been adopted and the emission factors had been estimated using CMEM emission model. The maximum observed values in eight different wind directions had been compared, considering both moving and queued vehicles. The adopted model showed that the maximum concentrations of CO in the roundabout scenario were about 50{\%} of the obtained values with the use of the signalised intersection. Concentration maps analysis demonstrated that not only the maximum values are higher in the case of the traffic light, but the area of the concentration curves is larger. These analyses are important for proper environmental management and contribute to traffic engineers seeking environmentally sustainable solutions.},

abstract = {One of the principal measures that public transport administrations are following for reaching a sustainable transportation in the cities consists on attract a higher number of citizens towards the use of public transport modes, by offering high quality services. Collecting users opinions is the best way of detecting where the service is failing and which aspects are been provided successfully. The main problem that has to be faced for analyzing service quality is the subjective nature of its measurement, offering heterogeneous assessments among passengers about the service. Stratifying the sample of users on segments of passengers which have more uniform opinions about the service can help to reduce this heterogeneity. This stratification usually is conducted based on the social and demographic characteristics of the passengers. However, there are more advance techniques that permits to identify more homogeneous groups of users. One of these techniques is the Cluster Analysis, which is a data mining technique that can be used for segmenting the sample of passengers on groups that share some common characteristics, and that have more homogeneous perceptions about the service. This technique has been applied in other fields of transport engineering but it has never been applied for searching homogeneous groups of users with regards to service quality evaluation in a public transport service. For this reason, the aim of this work is to find groups of passengers that perceive the quality of the service in a more homogeneous way, and to apply to this clusters a suitable statistic technique that permit us to discover which are the variables that more influence the passengers' overall evaluation about the service. The comparison among the results of each cluster will show considerable differences among them and also with the results obtained using the global sample.},

It also sought to identify the passengers' preference between the two transport modes. The study was built on two techniques: a questionnaire-based survey that approached 296 passengers, and a stated preference survey, which was answered by 223 of them. The results pointed out that most of the respondents were keen on changing the IT and BT for rail transport to reach and leave the airport. The rail transport had a good level of acceptance (84{\%}), which, was, however, contradicted by the stated preference results: 73{\%} of the respondents stated they do prefer the individual transport. One of the possible reasons for the controversial results may be the way the data was collected and arranged in this study. The conclusion of the study was that the rail transport enjoyed good acceptance amongst the respondents when imagined in a static scenario.},

abstract = {The claimed benefits of dynamic speed limit (DSL) strategies (e.g. increase of throughput or speed homogenization) still remain as a controversial topic. The present paper presents an empirical assessment of DSL policies with aggregated traffic flow data. A DSL system installed on the C-32 metropolitan freeway accessing the city of Barcelona (Spain) since February 2009 allows a before-after comparison between non-DSL and DSL scenarios. In order to achieve this objective, a new methodology is proposed. It includes speed-based data stratification for assessing the DSL drivers' compliance, detecting the causes which motivate drivers' behavior and the main DSL algorithms inefficiencies. In addition, a computation-friendly approach for searching stationary traffic periods is developed, differing from Cassidy (1998). The whole process permits to obtain a clear fundamental diagram characterization under DSL strategies. The paper proves that when speed limits are lower than free-flow speed, the slope of the free-flow branch of the fundamental diagram is lowered proportionally. This implies that critical occupancies are higher than in their non-DSL analogues. Remarkably, almost any capacity increase is reported in the vicinity of the analyzed bottleneck.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.Tolls have increasingly become a common mechanism to fund road projects in recent decades. Therefore, improving knowledge of demand behavior constitutes a key aspect for stakeholders dealing with the management of toll roads. However, the literature concerning demand elasticity estimates for interurban toll roads is still limited due to their relatively scarce number in the international context. Furthermore, existing research has left some aspects to be investigated, among others, the choice of GDP as the most common socioeconomic variable to explain traffic growth over time. This paper intends to determine the variables that better explain the evolution of light vehicle demand in toll roads throughout the years. To that end, we establish a dynamic panel data methodology aimed at identifying the key socioeconomic variables explaining changes in light vehicle demand over time. The results show that, despite some usefulness, GDP does not constitute the most appropriate explanatory variable, while other parameters such as employment or GDP per capita lead to more stable and consistent results. The methodology is applied to Spanish toll roads for the 1990–2011 period, which constitutes a very interesting case on variations in toll road use, as road demand has experienced a significant decrease since the beginning of the economic crisis in 2008.},

abstract = {Abstract Urban mobility in Europe is always a responsibility of the municipalities which propose measures to reduce {\{}CO2{\}} emissions in terms of mobility aimed at reducing individual private transport (car). The European Commission's Action Plan on Urban Mobility calls for an increase in the take-up of Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans in Europe. {\{}SUMPs{\}} aim to create a sustainable urban transport system. Europe has got some long term initiatives and has been using some evaluation procedures. Nevertheless, the weak point with the {\{}SUMPs{\}} in Spain, has been the lack of concern about the evaluation and the effectiveness of the measures implemented in a SUMP. For this reason, it is difficult to know exactly whether or not the {\{}SUMPs{\}} have positively influenced in the modal split of the cities, and its contribution to reduce {\{}CO2{\}} levels. The case of the City of Burgos is a very illustrative example as it developed a CiViTAS project during the years 2005-2009, with a total investment of 6M€. The results have been considered as “very successful” even at European level. The modal split has changed considerably for better and the cost-effectiveness ratio of the {\{}SUMP{\}} in the city can be measured with the {\{}CO2{\}} ton saved, specifically 36 € per {\{}CO2{\}} ton saved, which is fully satisfactory and in line with calculations from other European researchers. Additionally, the authors propose a single formula to measure the effectiveness of the activities developed under the umbrella of a SUMP. },

However, due to many factors, such as the incompatibility between the proposed models of transport planning and territorial planning, the expected results were not reached. Under these aspects, the goal of this paper is to define guidelines in order to devise a multimodal freight transportation network that allows efficient transport of products in a developing region. This network was developed using natural resources and it stimulates the economic growth and development based on the Growth and Development Poles Theory and Graphs Theory. As result three networks related to three different scenarios – status quo, investment in transport infrastructure by the governmental programs, and the strategy scenario – have been elaborated and analyzed considering the operational transport costs and their spatial configuration.},

abstract = {In this paper we use advanced choice modelling techniques to analyse demand for freight transport in a context of modal choice. To this end, a stated preference (SP) survey was conducted in order to estimate freight shipper preferences for the main attributes that define the service offered by the different transport modes. From a methodological point of view, we focus on two critical issues in the construction of efficient choice experiments. Firstly, in obtaining good quality prior information about the parameters; and secondly, in the improved quality of the experimental data by tailoring a specific efficient design for every respondent in the sample. With these data, different mixed logit models incorporating panel correlation effects and accounting for systematic and random taste heterogeneity are estimated. For the best model specification we obtain the willingness to pay for improving the level of service and the elasticity of the choice probabilities for the different attributes. Our model provide interesting results that can be used to analyse the potential diversion of traffic from road (the current option) to alternative modes, rail or maritime, as well as to help in the obtaining of the modal distribution of commercial traffic between Spain and the European Union, currently passing through the Pyrenees.

abstract = {This study presents the results of an exploratory study to identify solutions for unloading car vehicles in retail stores in urban areas. The focus group technique was used to identify the goals and solutions by the government and logistics operators. The revealed preference research was applied to the retailers, presenting hypothetical scenarios based on the solutions indicated by the first group. The off-peak delivery, the internalization of the unloading operation and the implementation of a freight distribution center were evaluated. From the results analysis, off-peak delivery and the use of a distribution center were the most pointed options by retailers. The results indicate that it is possible to identify sustainable solutions, from the city point of view, to urban freight distribution, when all stakeholders are included in the discussion. Furthermore, the off-peak operation is an important alternative for delivery vehicles to retailers, associated with the use of a distribution center for stock maintenance.},

abstract = {Applying assignment methods to compute user-equilibrium route choice is very common in traffic planning. It is common sense that vehicular traffic arranges in a user-equilibrium based on generalized costs in which travel time is a major factor. Surprisingly travel time has not received much attention for the route choice of pedestrians. In microscopic simulations of pedestrians the vastly dominating paradigm for the computation of the preferred walking direction is set into the direction of the (spatially) shortest path. For situations where pedestrians have travel time as primary determinant for their walking behavior it would be desirable to also have an assignment method in pedestrian simulations. To apply existing (road traffic) assignment methods with simulations of pedestrians one has to reduce the nondenumerably many possible pedestrian trajectories to a small subset of routes which represent the main, relevant, and significantly distinguished routing alternatives. All except one of these routes will mark detours, i.e. not the shortest connection between origin and destination. The proposed assignment method is intended to work with common operational models of pedestrian dynamics. These - as mentioned before - usually send pedestrians into the direction of the spatially shortest path. Thus, all detouring routes have to be equipped with intermediate destinations, such that pedestrians can do a detour as a piecewise connection of segments on which they walk into the direction of the shortest path. One has then to take care that the transgression from one segment to the following one no artifacts are introduced into the pedestrian trajectory.},

abstract = {Background: South Africa has a disproportionately high freight transport demand owing to industrial development far from ports, low domestic beneficiation and improper modal use. Historical freight transport policy supported primary economic development, failing to preempt the changing economic structure and the resulting freight transport needs, resulting in excessive transport costs and externalities. Objectives: To share the macroeconomic freight transport challenges revealed by South Africa's Logistics Barometer, and to identify key interventions to address these. Method: Freight flows are modelled by disaggregating the national input-output model into 83 commodity groupings and 372 geographical areas, culminating in a 30-year forecast at 5-year intervals for three scenarios, followed by distance-decay gravity modelling to determine freight flows. Logistics costs are calculated by relating these flows to the costs of fulfilling associated logistic functions. Results: Long-distance transport remains the largest general freight typology and is, due to inefficient macro logistics design, extremely costly, both in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic costs. Conclusion: South Africa's freight task will grow 2.5-fold by 2043. Logistics and externality costs are already untenable at current levels. The development of domestic intermodal solutions will support the drive towards sustainable freight mobility.},

abstract = {Fare evasion is a problem in many public transport systems around the world. Policies to reduce this problem are generally aimed at improving control systems and increasing fines for offenders. In this paper, we attempt to identify the joint impact of different variables explaining fare evasion using an econometric study. The variables found to be statistically significant are the level of inspection, the proximity to a Metro or intermodal station, the bus occupancy level, the period of the day, the geographic location and number of passengers boarding and alighting at each bus stop, among others. We propose a novel approach to perform cost-benefit evaluation in order to help authorities increase the cost-effectiveness of ticket inspection strategies on a given time horizon. We obtain new evidence that indicates that inspection strategies can be cost-effective even when evaders are not given a fine.},

In order to accomplish this objective, the actual routes used by cyclists were compared with the shortest-path routes, by means of the extra distance travelled. To therefore determine which characteristics that influences the choice between the two paths. The information collected showed that the speed of motorized traffic and volume (proxi variable, from classification of the roads) at the last, quality of the pavement influence directly in choosing the way to go. Other observed characteristics in this work, not shown to have great importance on the route selection, the absolute difference in most of the variable means were very small. The first part reports the motivations and goals of this paper, followed by a brief literature review on work carried out in the same scope, in the chapter 2. The third chapter describes the methods of data collection for this research and the compared with the shortest paths. Following chapter, describe the resulting from this information's, finally chapter 5 presents conclusions and limitations of this paper.},

abstract = {The measurement of transit service quality is very important for guaranteeing a transport supply characterized by satisfactory service levels for the passengers. Even more important is the monitoring of the levels of service quality over time, which can be very useful to determine if the goals established by the transport planners are being met or exceeded. The status and evolution of transit service quality can be monitored through periodic and regular updating of the opinions expressed by the passengers about the service during the well-known Customer Satisfaction Surveys, allowing the effect of policies to be evalu- ated and specific interventions to be introduced. In this work, just the issue of monitoring service quality based on users' opinions is approached, and the index numbers usually applied in the economic and industrial field are proposed for this purpose. Index numbers permit to study the fluctuations or variations of a variable or more variables over time, pro- viding a powerful measurement for making comparisons and predictions of the analyzed concept. The index numbers were calculated on the basis of data collected from Customer Satisfaction Surveys addressed to the passengers of the metropolitan public ser- vice of Granada (Spain). The analyzed time period has been established from 2007 to 2013. Interesting results derive from the calculation of the index numbers. Since both percep- tions and importance rates are considered in this methodology, the results can inform, not only on the satisfaction tendencies but also on the trend on customers' priorities, which is actually the expected quality. Therefore, policies could more efficiently be designed to adjust the service to the users' real needs. ?},

abstract = {In transport economics, modeling modal choice is a fundamental key for policy makers trying to improve the sustainability of transportation systems. However, existing empirical literature has focused on short-distance travel within urban systems. This paper contributes to the limited number of investigations on mode choice in medium- and long-distance travel. The main objective of this research is to study the impacts of socio-demographic and economic variables, land-use features and trip attributes on long-distance travel mode choice. Using data from 2007 Spanish National Mobility Survey we apply a multilevel multinomial logit model that accounts for the potential problem of spatial heterogeneity in order to explain long-distance travel mode choice. This approach permits us to compute how the probability of choosing among private car, bus and train varies depending on the traveler spatial location at regional level. Results indicate that travelers characteristics, trip features, cost of usage of transport modes and geographical variables have significant impacts on long-distance mode choice.},

abstract = {SUMMARY The assessment on introducing Longer and Heavier Vehicles (LHVs) on the road freight transport demand is performed in this paper by applying an integrated modeling approach composed of a Random Utility-Based Multiregional Input-Output model (RUBMRIO) and a road transport network model. The approach strongly supports the concept that changes in transport costs derived from the LHVs allowance as well as the economic structure of regions have both direct and indirect effects on the road freight transport system. In addition, we estimate the magnitude and extent of demand changes in the road freight transportation system by using the commodity-based structure of the approach to identify the effect on traffic flows and on pollutant emissions over the whole network of Spain by considering a sensitivity analysis of the main parameters which determine the share of Heavy-Goods Vehicles (HGVs) and LHVs. The results show that the introduction of LHVs will strengthen the competitiveness of the road haulage sector by reducing costs, emissions, and the total freight vehicles required.},

abstract = {Increasing levels of car ownership have been causing problems for the governments around the world, particularly in the fields of traffic congestion and air pollution. Income growth coupled with the perception that car is the most comfortable means of transport resulted in the increase of motor vehicles on the roads and in certain cases this increase is hard to handle. Besides general growth in the number of cars on the roads, there is also an issue of their major concentration on a limited territory: in urban areas, which nowadays are poles of attraction for migration flows. A number of measures has been introduced to restrain car use in urban areas, including parking fees, licenses on car ownership (the case of Beijing), restrictions on circulation in certain hours or zones, etc. However, since mobility is crucial for normal functioning of a city, these measures, in spite of being quite successful, should be coupled with favoring alternative means of transport, such as cycling, walking or public transport. Compared to the image of owning a private vehicle, the image of using public transport is relatively poor. As a result of marketing efforts of car industry, car is now considered to be one of the most comfortable and fast means of transport and is always associated with notions like “freedom” or “control”, even though these notions do not necessarily reflect the mode of car use in a congested city. Taking this into consideration, it seems important to develop marketing of public transport in order to improve the overall i mage associated to it, restrain current users from switching to the use of private vehicles and attract new users. There has been a number of initiatives in this area which prove that marketing of public transport can be indeed a way of fostering its use. Public transport information provision is another important factor that can favor people to use public transportation modes. Often potential users are repelled by the lack and/or complexity of information about routes and timetables, so providing them with easily accessible, trustful sources which show relevant information can attract the clients. Besides, with technical progress and widespread use of the Internet, there are much more means of information dissemination available to public transport companies. Using them in a coherent way may gradually increase the level of trust in a company and thus foster people to rely on public transportation modes.},

abstract = {An attractive transport alternative that combines the efficiency of public transport with the flexibility of cars, with the potential to reduce traffic congestion and become integral part of the transit-oriented developments, PnR received much interest in the last decade. This is particularly relevant to Australian urban landscape and especially Perth, where the low urban density means that more than 90{\%} of residents live outside of 800 m distance from train stations. Drawing on an intercept survey, we identified PnR and basic facilities within the station perimeter as key differentiating factors of access and service across rail corridors. Then, using discrete choice models we found that paid parking bays, bike lockers, access mode and time-of-day were the most influential in determining the choice of train station, more so than the distance. Notably, there were two classes of travellers, one seeking stations with good facilities, and the other being more interested in quick access to the station.},

abstract = {The aim of the present research was to examine whether an individuaĺs attitude towards cycling influences his perception of barriers (perceived behavioral control) for cycle commuting. Attitudes and perceived behavioral control were measured using psychological constructs, following the Theory of Planned Behavior. Data collection for this research was conducted in a public college in a Brazilian medium-sized city. The results indicate that the respondents have a positive attitude to cycling for four aspects: environmental benefits, health benefits, economy and feeling of independence. For other eight aspects (better observing the landscape, parking, speed, prestige, effort, risk of accidents, risk of being assaulted and exposure to sun and rain) the general attitude is negative. Perceived behavioral control (barriers) was assessed in relation to six possible obstacles to cycling: lack of infrastructure, lack of safety, distance, skill, slopes and climate. The main deterrent against cycling was lack of adequate cycling infrastructure. Lack of safety (which is associated with the absence of infrastructure) and slopes are other strong obstacles for commuting by bicycle in the city. Individuals who have a negative or neutral attitude toward cycle commuting are not very different in their perception of barriers for cycling. The individuals who have a positive attitude perceive weaker barriers (they have stronger behavioral control). In contrast, a very negative attitude is associated with the perception of stronger barriers.},

Visando capturar as distintas " vis{\~{o}}es " dos especialistas, representantes de setores que contribuem para as desi{\c{c}}{\~{o}}es sobre transportes no Brasil, prop{\^{o}}s-se um conjunto de institui{\c{c}}{\~{o}}es, das quais se buscou a colabora{\c{c}}{\~{a}}o por meio de pelo menos um especialista. Como objetivo principal para prioriza{\c{c}}{\~{a}}o dos crit{\'{e}}rios propostos foi considerada uma das metas da pol{\'{i}}tica nacional de transporte brasileiro, ou seja, o equil{\'{i}}brio da matriz modal de transporte de cargas. Assim, cada um dos especialistas que participaram do estudo, considerando a compara{\c{c}}{\~{a}}o par a par dos crit{\'{e}}rios, ponderaram suas relativas import{\^{a}}ncia, atribuindo pesos com base na escala utilizada pelo AHP. Os pesos combinados dessas compara{\c{c}}{\~{o}}es foram utilizados para hierarquizar um conjunto de 15 projetos. Os pesos, de cada um dos crit{\'{e}}rios, definidos em cada projeto n{\~{a}}o necessitou da avalia{\c{c}}{\~{a}}o dos especialistas, pois eles foram obtidos diretamente dos seus atributos.

abstract = {The more intensive use of containers for channelling the flows of international trade has led to the ports become nodes of the main supply chains. As a result, there is a strong competition among port alternatives to attract routes to their facilities in order to gain the greater share of maritime traffic. The need to identify the variables responsible for the success of a port over its competitors has led to the birth of a line of research to develop a tool for port planning. This tool, called GOAPORT, is being developed in the framework of discrete choices modes which allows us to identify these variables and forecasting market shares in different situations from current one. To calibrate it we need a data with the maximum possible detail. But surveys are very expensive and public data available is sparse and too aggregated. The problem is compounded when we try to research the Spanish port system. Due to confidentiality issues we are not allowed to know directly which ports use the Spanish companies to export and import their goods abroad. This paper focus on the development of a theoretical model which work a disaggregated level but whose data are partly aggregated making impossible to know the alternative chosen at a disaggregated level. This model, let us use the Spanish public data at the highest level of detail possible. Thus it, it can explain and predict the port choice by knowing characteristics of the company, the place where they are located, the land which they trade, trade goods, and of course, port characteristics. Furthermore, the methodology set up could be reuse and applied it in other fields as long as they have the same common structure of public data.},

Particularly, Bike Sharing Systems (BSS) have been adapted successfully in places where it has identified a large proportion of short trips and characteristic geospatial conditions. This work is part of a project in Nezahualcoyotl in Mexico, where socioeconomic conditions in the area, the adherence of its society to this transportation mode as well as the urban trace and physical conditions favor the adoption of a BSS. This paper presents the methodology used to carry out the design and dimensioning of such system. The process involves: an optimal stations location modeling and a discrete simulation process for determining the ideal number of bicycles and the number of parking lots per station. This work focuses on the knowledge of the potential user preferences regarding their travel patterns and the computation of its utilization probability either replacing a motorized mode trip or as a link in a journey that involves transfers with more transportation modes.},

abstract = {Because most traffic accidents are caused by the human factor, intervention programs should work to prevent and reduce these fatal incidents by focusing on drivers. The human factor relates to aspects of risk that are controlled by people, for example, whether or not people follow driving rules, their attitude and behavior while driving, and so on. Furthermore, road user{\'{s}} perception of risk influences their driving behavior. As a result, this study investigates the key factors that affect drivers' risk perception. A survey involving a Stated Preference experiment was created to collect information about drivers' risk perception of five behavioral factors. The University of Granada (Spain) provided the researchers with student email addresses, which were used to complete a total of 788 online surveys. Additionally, a stratification of the sample was developed for calibrating different Ranking Ordered Logit models, which permit the identification of differences among the key factors influencing the risk perception of the surveyed drivers. The results obtained demonstrate that not following passing rules and distracted driving are the most influential factors on drivers' risk perception, while speed limits were found to produce a low impact on drivers' risk perception. Moreover, model{\'{s}} results show some interesting differences in risk perceptions of drivers of differing gender and driving experience.},

abstract = {In order to achieve to minimize car-based trips, transport planners have been particularly interested in understanding the factors that explain modal choices. In the transport modelling literature there has been an increasing awareness that socioeconomic attributes and quantitative variables are not sufficient to characterize travelers and forecast their travel behavior. Recent studies have also recognized that users' social interactions and land use patterns influence travel behavior, especially when changes to transport systems are introduced, but links between international and Spanish perspectives are rarely deal. In this paper, factorial and path analyses through a Multiple-Indicator Multiple-Cause (MIMIC) model are used to understand and describe the relationship between the different psychological and environmental constructs with social influence and socioeconomic variables. The MIMIC model generates Latent Variables (LVs) to be incorporated sequentially into Discrete Choice Models (DCM) where the levels of service and cost attributes of travel modes are also included directly to measure the effect of the transport policies that have been introduced in Madrid during the last three years in the context of the economic crisis. The data used for this paper are collected from a two panel smartphone-based survey (n=255 and 190 same respondents, respectively) of Madrid.},

Many sophisticated control strategies have been developed to reduce bus bunching, however, few of them have been implemented in high frequency real services. Building upon a control strategy comprised of a rolling horizon mathematical programming model that yields the optimal holding time that minimizes user-waiting times{\textless}sup{\textgreater}6{\textless}/sup{\textgreater}, we have developed real-time software and implemented it on two bus services in Santiago using different technologies to communicate the instructions to bus drivers. The results presented in this paper are encouraging, on the days the system was implemented less bus bunching was observed, which translated in fewer headway-irregularity fines. Moreover lower passenger fare evasion was observed when the bus control strategy was used. ?? 2014 Published by Elsevier B.V.},

abstract = {Mega-events have taken pride place in the urban agenda of contemporary metropolises. This current importance lies in the fact that the mega event be viewed as a catalyst for urban development of a metropolis, and an opportunity for affirmation them as global cities. The realization of a mega-event can be the showcase of a country on the international stage, and urban transport can be the determinant for the success or failure of the mega event. The transport infrastructures imply high investments for both installation as well as maintenance after the event. Therefore, without a global planning (before, during and post- event), urban transport can become a detriment rather than benefit to the host city and the resident population. In view of the 2014 World Cup to be held in Brazil and the country's problems around the theme of public transport, this research analyzes, based on the guidelines advocated by Eva Kassens in his thesis “Transportation Planning for Mega Events: a model of urban change, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2009)”, will study similar proportions in other countries and identifies the strategies adopted for the planning phase (pre - event), production (during the event) and legacy (post-event) aiming to define what positive and/or negative results that the “strategy of the mega event” will bring to the transport and mobility in Brazil, specifically for the City of Recife.},

abstract = {Handling and managing data automatically collected by Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) is a major opportunity and challenge for transport professionals nowadays. This study guides the management of smartcard data from public bikes by providing criteria to detect travel patterns that describe the specific use of bike-share systems and which cannot be encountered in other transport modes. The guidelines have been put into practice with data from the TusBic system in Santander, Spain. The major discovery that has resulted from the analysis of the data is the high number of records that describe very short trips that show the same terminal at origin and destination. An algorithm is proposed that assumes the users try and return the bike if this is not working properly, and pick a new one from the same terminal. In such cases, the records are joined to describe a unique trip by considering the origin as the pick-up instant of the first bike, and the destination, the instant at which the second bike has been returned. The indications presented in this article should be considered in future studies of demand and level of service of public bicycle systems since not only they can make a big difference in the accuracy of the results, but also they can provide interesting information regarding the management and design of the system. Therefore, they are of interest for different stakeholders such as politicians and decision makers, service planners, and agencies responsible for the operations and direct management of public bicycle systems.},

abstract = {One of the core objectives of urban planning practice is to provide spatial equity in terms of opportunities and use of public space and facilities. Accessibility is the element that serves this purpose as a concept linking the reciprocal relationship between transport and land use, thus shaping individual potential mobility to reach the desired destinations. Accessibility concepts are increasingly acknowledged as fundamental to understand the functioning of cities and urban regions. Indeed, by introducing them in planning practice, better solutions can be achieved in terms of spatial equity. The COST Action TU1002 "Accessibility instruments for planning practice" was specifically designed to address the gap between scientific research in measuring and modelling accessibility, and the current use of indicators of accessibility in urban planning practice. This paper shows the full process of introducing an easily understandable measure of accessibility to planning practitioners in Madrid, which is one of the case studies of the above-mentioned COST action. Changes in accessibility after the opening of a new metro line using contour measures were analyzed and then presented to a selection of urban planners and practitioners in Madrid as part of a workshop to evaluate the usefulness of this tool for planning practice. Isochrone maps were confirmed as an effective tool, as their utility can be supplemented by other indicators, and being GIS-based, it can be easily computed (when compared with transport models) and integrated with other datasets.},

For users, express buses 4 offer shorter travel times due to fewer stops and higher between-stop speeds. For system 5 operators, express buses allow demand to be met with fewer vehicles because of shorter bus 6 cycles. Leiva et al. (1) introduced a frequency setting model for express services on a corridor. 7 However, this methodology does not deal with which stops must be visited by each service. In 8 order to generate services to feed Leiva's model, we developed two heuristics: the first one 9 designs zonal services (a type of express service) for uncongested scenarios (i.e. when capacity 10 of the buses is not binding); the second one designs this type of service for congested scenarios. 11 This paper details how these two heuristics were obtained and shows an example of how they 12 work on a forty stop bidirectional corridor. For both congested and uncongested scenarios, our 13 zonal services reduced social costs by around 10{\%}. The idea behind these two heuristics is being 14 extended to other configurations such as short turning services, with promising results. Our goal 15 is to combine these generation heuristics with the frequency setting model in a computational 16 tool, which would make it possible to solve the express service design problem on larger 17 instances. 18 19},

abstract = {In light of the growing importance of transport analysis since the 1960s, interviewing households has become a proven means of gathering information concerning the travel behavior of the population. In spite of the exploitation of various classical methods and the partial use of new media, the acceptance of household interviews in Germany has deteriorated sharply over the last few years. This can be seen in the continuously declining response rates. A low response rate may have a negative impact on the quality of the data gathered and on the acceptance of the published results. The Technische Universit{\"{a}}t Dresden is currently analyzing the possibility of halting the declining response rate by combining different survey methods that differ in regard to the target group. One of the key questions in considering a target-group-specific approach is the decision of whether to choose the household or the individual as the primary unit of analysis. Deciding on a favorable sampling strategy requires careful reflection on the advantages and disadvantages in terms of statistics, content and the practicability of the survey.},

@inproceedings{DaSilva2014,
abstract = {The integration of the bicycle with the public passenger transport has been shown effective to increase the sustainable urban mobility. It reduces the time of shifting and overlapping routes, expanding the offer of destinations and improving the quality of life. In the last few years there have been some studies that use the bicycle user´s perception on the attributes of choosing their routes, although only few bring focus on routes that make the integration of public transport from the user´s point of view. Thus, the main purpose of this study is the development of a method to assist in evaluating “The best” cycling route integrated with the public transport and to consider among other criteria, the factors of individual choice of the cyclists. The evaluation procedure of the routes proposed in this work was based on a combination technique: Focus Group Technique, Content Analysis, Simulation Video and Multiple Criteria Evaluation. In the initial stage, the scope area of study was defined and maps of the cycling routes network were designed to define possible alternatives. Validate the criteria and alternatives it was used the Focus Group technique followed by the in order to incorporate the bicycle users' perception. Validation criteria with urban mobility experts were also held. To evaluate the routes it was used the technique of Multiple Criteria Evaluation based on AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. Finally, to validate the proposed method, the area of Mussurunga was taken as a case study in Salvador, Bahia, which has a large flow of cyclists and a potential demand for integration and also for being an important integration station of public transport, the Mussurunga Station. The research results showed that by the perception of the cyclists, the main criteria that influence the choices of their routes are related to traffic and public safety. The “best” alternative route found by applying the AHP method using the Expert Choice software, revealed the public infrastructure as the first criterion and the public safety as the second one. It was concluded that the goal of this research was reached and that the perception of the cyclists about the main criteria of choosing a route was taken in consideration enabling an exchange of knowledge with the experts in the area of mobility. It is expected that this methodology can be used as an aid instrument for decision making on city planning and the sustainable mobility. Keywords:},

abstract = {Since the year 1994, when the city of Valencia reintroduced the tramway (more specifically, the second generation of trams, known as Light Rail System), this means of transport has been introduced in many urban areas in Spain. It is an innovative transport system that substantially improves the features of the old trams that crossed Spanish cities until 1976. The technical characteristics of this means of transport make it a sustainable alternative for urban settings, as it produces less acoustic and environmental pollution, and it is safer than other modes of transport. In comparison with the underground and the bus, the Light rail offers an intermediate transport capacity, which makes it adequate for medium-sized cities or certain zones within large metropolitan areas. Finally, the modern design of these modern trams, together with the urban regeneration of the zone where it circulates, is frequently used to improve the image of a city. In 2012 there were 16 Light Rail Systems in 13 Spanish cities (Valencia, Alicante, Madrid, Barcelona, Parla, Sevilla, Vitoria, Bilbao, Murcia, Tenerife, Zaragoza, Ja{\'{e}}n, and V{\'{e}}lez-M{\'{a}}laga). However, in some cases these Light Rail Systems have involved high costs of implementation and operation that the respective financing entities (Public Administration and/or private enterprise) can hardly face. Moreover, they are functioning at a much lower level of demand than their capacity, meaning they could be considered an economic and social failure. At this point in time, two decades after the introduction of Light Rails in Spain, there is a need to analyse the factors that may have influenced the success or failure of this novel type of transport. Although such an analysis should be approached from diverse perspectives, the present contribution focuses on the influence of private financing in these projects. More specifically, a qualitative and quantitative analysis is carried out to determine if there is a significant relationship between the percentage of private participation in financing this transport system and a series of relevant variables: total investment, cost per unit of length, operating and maintenance costs, percentage of length underground, passengers' demand, investment per passenger, fares and subventions, etc. In view of the results, it will be assessed whether the private funding behind the Light Rail Systems in Spain has proven efficient for society.},

abstract = {The city is a place of political, economic and social contradictions with continuous changes in an attempt to serve the daily interests of the different modes of transport. In recent years, urban centers have presented problems in daily commutes of people. Therefore, this dissertation has studied the Public Bike Systems (PBS) in order to identify whether the system is a viable alternative to improve urban mobility in Recife, once it has been present in many cities around the world. From experiments in other cities, conditions were identified for its implementation, such as location, number of stations, integration with other modes of transport, logistics operations and maintenance, the guidelines were identified for the development of PBS from its planning to implementation, and pointed out advantages and disadvantages in the use of the system and its role in sustainable urban mobility policy. The PBS consists of rental or borrowing of bicycles in urban centers, often encouraged by the government, and aims to provide rapid and practical system designed for daily use. This alternative of displacement has been a successful solution to promote sustainable mobility. The empirical study is the city of Recife, where PBS has been recently implemented. Therefore, the research was based on questioning whether the public bicycle system is a viable alternative to provide sustainable urban mobility in Recife. The methodology used is qualitative and it was based on the case study. The public administration and the private sector that work with urban mobility in Recife were interviewed. The data were analyzed based on the academic literature. The results identified that the city of Recife has the perfect conditions that allow the implementation of PBS. Thus, managers must adopt effective measures in respect to the bicycle as a means of daily transportation for people, encouraging its use and infrastructure provision. In order to be an attractive option, people should use the bike in a safety, comfortable and fast way.},

abstract = {The collection of origin-destination data for a city is an important but often costly task. This way, there is a need to develop more efficient and inexpensive methods of collecting information about citizens' travel patterns. In this line, this paper presents a generic methodology that allows to infer the origin and destination zones for an observed trip between two public transport stops (i.e., bus stops or metro stations) using socio-economic, land use, and network information. The proposed zonal inference model follows a disaggregated Logit approach including size variables. The model enables the estimation of a zonal origin-destination matrix for a city, if trip information passively collected by a smart-card payment system is available (in form of a stop-to-stop matrix). The methodology is applied to the Santiago de Chile's morning peak period, with the purpose of serving as input for a public transport planning computational tool. To estimate the model, information was gathered from different sources and processed into a unified framework; data included a survey conducted at public transport stops, land use information, and a stop-to-stop trip matrix. Additionally, a zonal system with 1176 zones was constructed for the city, including the definition of its access links and associated distances. Our results shows that, ceteris paribus, zones with high numbers of housing units have higher probabilities of being the origin of a morning peak trip. Likewise, health facilities, educational, residential, commercial, and offices centres have significant attraction powers during this period. In this sense, our model manages to capture the expected effects of land use on trip generation and attraction. This study has numerous policy implications, as the information obtained can be used to predict the impacts of changes in the public transport network (such as extending routes, relocating their stops, designing new routes or changing the fare structure). Further research is needed to improve the zonal inference formulation and origin-destination matrix estimation, mainly by including better cost measures, and dealing with survey and data limitations.},

Their approach combines all relevant information through a weighted version of the likelihood function. The present paper is concerned with the asymptotic properties of a class of maximum weighted likelihood estimators that contains those considered by Hu and Zidek (Technical Report No. 161, Department of Statistics, The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada, 1995, in: Ahmed, S.E.

In particular, we invoke a different asymptotic paradigm than that in Hu (Can. J. Stat. 25 (1997) 45). Moreover, our adaptive weights are allowed to depend on the data. {\textcopyright} 2002 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Active commuting is associated with various health benefits, but little is known about its causal relationship with body mass index (BMI).$\backslash$n$\backslash$nMETHODS: We used cohort data from three consecutive annual waves of the British Household Panel Survey, a longitudinal study of nationally representative households, in 2004/2005 (n=15 791), 2005/2006 and 2006/2007. Participants selected for the analyses (n=4056) reported their usual main mode of travel to work at each time point. Self-reported height and weight were used to derive BMI at baseline and after 2 years. Multivariable linear regression analyses were used to assess associations between switching to and from active modes of travel (over 1 and 2 years) and change in BMI (over 2 years) and to assess dose-response relationships.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nRESULTS: After adjustment for socioeconomic and health-related covariates, the first analysis (n=3269) showed that switching from private motor transport to active travel or public transport (n=179) was associated with a significant reduction in BMI compared with continued private motor vehicle use (n=3090; -0.32 kg/m(2), 95{\%} CI -0.60 to -0.05). Larger adjusted effect sizes were associated with switching to active travel (n=109; -0.45 kg/m(2), -0.78 to -0.11), particularly among those who switched within the first year and those with the longest journeys. The second analysis (n=787) showed that switching from active travel or public transport to private motor transport was associated with a significant increase in BMI (0.34 kg/m(2), 0.05 to 0.64).$\backslash$n$\backslash$nCONCLUSIONS: Interventions to enable commuters to switch from private motor transport to more active modes of travel could contribute to reducing population mean BMI.},

abstract = {Predicting the binding mode of flexible polypeptides to proteins is an important task that falls outside the domain of applicability of most small molecule and protein−protein docking tools. Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

The model is based on a multi-objective mathematical programming problem, the optimality conditions of which generate an extension to the Multinomial Logit models. The proposed model considers a fixed point problem for treating correlations between routes, which can be solved iteratively. We estimated the new model on the Santiago (Chile) Metro network and compared the results with other route choice models that can be found in the literature. The new model has better explanatory and predictive power that many other alternative models, correctly capturing the correlation factor.

abstract = {This article presents a route choice model for public transit networks that incorporates variables related to network topology, complementing those found in traditional models based on service levels (travel time, cost, transfers, etc.) and users' socioeconomic and demographic characteristics (income level, trip purpose, etc.). The topological variables represent concepts such as the directness of the chosen route and user knowledge of the network. For both of these factors, the necessary data is endogenous to the modelling process and can be quantified without the need for information-gathering beyond what is normally required for building route choice models. Other novel variables in the proposed formulation capture notions of user comfort such as vehicle occupancy rates and certain physical characteristics of network stations. We conclude that these new variables significantly improve the explanatory and predictive ability of existing route choice specifications. ?? 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The widespread adoption of automated fare collection (AFC) systems by public transport authorities around the world means that, increasingly, people carry and use passive sensors (embedded inside of public transit tickets) to record their daily movements. Unlike mobile phones, the records held by AFC systems provide a rich and detailed source of data about peoples' transport habits: times of travel, modalities, destinations, trip durations, and fares paid. In this work, we explore the extent that this data offers the possibility to both build and measure future of travel-based ubiquitous computing applications. We focus on two potential end-users: first, how travellers may be aided by feedback mechanisms in order to re-align misperceptions of their travel behaviour and leverage this data to change their habits. In particular, we analyse differences between 85 travellers' surveyed perceptions of their public transport habits and their actual usage of the system. Second, how transport authorities can use this data to measure and implement incentive mechanisms that produce the expected impact. We use anonymised AFC data to measure the extent that financial incentives implemented by London's transport authority (such as peak-hour fares and student discounts) correlate with measurable changes in millions of travellers' behaviours. {\textcopyright} 2011 ACM.},

@article{Mitrani2016a,
abstract = {Stated choice experiments are used regularly as part of the evaluation of major transport infrastructure investments, and their design can have an important effect on the accuracy of demand forecasts. Research in the field of behavioral economics has shown that format details can sig-nificantly influence how people respond to questions. The increasing ubiquity of the Internet and smartphones has produced rapid changes in survey data collection methods and has implications for stated choice experiment formats. The foregoing trends suggest that there may be opportunities to improve the stated choice formats in common use. However, it will be difficult to improve these formats without systematic, controlled experiments. Four existing publications reporting full-scale controlled comparisons of alternative formats for stated choice exercises were found, and this study presents another such experiment. Timelines are a graphical way of presenting travel time components, similar to a stacked bar chart. The use of timelines was tested as part of an Internet-based stated choice survey of car drivers in Lima, Peru. The question-naire included a route choice exercise and a mode choice exercise. The respondents were assigned randomly to one of two formats: the timeline format and a text-only format. The timeline and the text-only choice models are similar for both choice exercises. There are indications that the timeline format makes complex choices easier. The time to choose was significantly lower with the timeline format in the mode choice exer-cise, and the timeline format produced significant constants for the new modes, unlike the text-only format. Research in the field of behavioral economics reviewed by Kahneman points to important differences between the way people actually make choices and the behavior of the rational agents represented by microeconomic models (1). People make decisions in ways that are not always rational and on the basis of preferences that are to some extent constructed and dependent on the way in which information is presented (1–3). For instance, Alter et al. found that presenting an intelligence test in a font that was difficult to read produced better scores compared with a control condition with a clearer font and that a hard-to-read title on a review of a fictitious MP3 player induced more consideration of the content of the review and reduced the influence of the photograph of the reviewer (4). In his review of the evidence on the validity of stated preference methods, Swanson notes that the constructed nature of preferences poses a potential problem for the external validity of stated choice models and com-ments that the existing practice of making stated choice exercises as realistic as possible is probably the best approach (5). Decisions about the presentation format of a stated choice exercise are normally taken on the basis of experience, judgment, discussions with colleagues, and maybe pilot tests. Usually only one presenta-tion format is selected for use in the main survey, so there is no way of knowing for sure what the effects of using this format might be or how effective it is compared with other possible formats. For instance, a bar-chart-based presentation format was used by Hensher and colleagues in a study of long-distance car trips in New Zealand, with stacked bars representing components of both time and cost attributes (6, 7). Innovative graphical formats tend to be used for specific purposes to make stated choice exercises more comprehensible to respon-dents; therefore innovation in presentation is often related to the degree of complexity of the choice scenarios and the difficulty of conveying the relevant information in an effective way. There has been considerable discussion of different ways to present informa-tion on travel time reliability, and many different ways of graphi-cally presenting this information have been used in different studies (7). For a recent Dutch national value-of-time study the approach adopted was to pilot seven alternative formats using in-depth inter-views with 30 people of varying educational levels. The result was that a simple text-only format was selected in favor of more sophis-ticated presentations using graphics (8). The effects of different levels of complexity on stated preference parameter estimates were tested in an experiment about preferences for the location of landfill sites (9). The results showed that the parameter estimates varied significantly as the level of complexity of the choice increased. A study undertaken in Sydney, Australia, on the effect of design dimensions on policy-relevant outputs such as the value of time showed that increasing the complexity of choice tasks increases the tendency of respondents to ignore attributes. However, it was argued that this result also occurs with complex choices in the real world, and therefore there is an important trade-off between simplicity and relevance (inclusion of all relevant attributes and alternatives) in stated choice design (10). A survey undertaken in Pretoria, South Africa, tested the effects of alternative presentations and different levels of complexity of stated choice exercises on a population with varying levels of literacy (11). This study applied two choice exercise presentations to each respondent and found no significant effects related to the choice presentation. The pictorial and tabular presentation formats were quite different from one another, although the examples shown in Figure 1 are not for the same choice situation. The authors com-ment that " choice alternatives were printed on cards . . . and verbally explained by an interviewer. "},

abstract = {Crowding discomfort is an external cost of public transport trips imposed on fellow passengers that has to be measured in order to derive optimal supply-side decisions. This paper presents a comprehensive method to estimate the user cost of crowding in terms of the equivalent travel time loss, in a revealed preference route choice framework. Using automated demand and train location data we control for fluctuations in crowding conditions on the entire length of a metro journey, including variations in the density of standing passengers and the probability of finding a seat. The estimated standing penalty is 26.5{\%} of the uncrowded value of in-vehicle travel time. An additional passenger per square metre on average adds 11.9{\%} to the travel time multiplier. These results are in line with earlier revealed preference values, and suggest that stated choice methods may overestimate the user cost of crowding. As a side-product, and an important input of the route choice analysis, we derive a novel passenger-to-train assignment method to recover the daily crowding and standing probability pattern in the metro network.},

abstract = {The introduction in 2007 of a new public transport system in Santiago, Chile, brought to us an unexpected gift: the availability of Big Data; massive amounts of passive data obtained from technological devices installed to control the operation of buses and to administer the fare collection process. Many other cities in the world have experienced the same, and sooner or later, this is likely to happen everywhere. Seeing this opportunity, many researchers have developed tools to obtain valuable information from the available data. However, the case of Transantiago is particularly advantageous because all buses have GPS devices and the smart card presents an overall 97{\%} penetration rate. We describe a successful experience of collaboration between academia and the public transport authority to develop tools based on passive data processing. We include a brief description of the Transantiago system and the agreements made to develop the aforementioned tools. We also describe the methods developed to obtain valuable information like public transport trips origin-destination matrices, speed profiles of buses and service quality indicators, among others. Several examples of specific uses of the information for public transport policy and planning in Santiago are presented. The paper concludes with a discussion of what else can be obtained from this data and why we believe that this can change the way we do transport planning.},

abstract = {Participants were given a choice between two multiattribute alternatives (job offers). Preferences for the attributes were measured before, during, and after the choices were made. We found that over the course of decision making, the preferences shifted to cohere with the choice: The attributes of the option that was eventually chosen came to be rated more favorably than they had been rated initially, while the attributes of the rejected option received lower preference ratings than before. These coherence shifts were triggered by a single attribute that decisively favored one option (Experiment 1), and occurred spontaneously in the absence of a decisive attribute (Experiment 2). The coherence shift preceded commitment to choice. These findings favor constraint-satisfaction models of decision making.},

abstract = {Different assumptions about travelers' scheduling preferences yield different measures of the cost of travel time variability. Only few forms of scheduling preferences provide non-trivial measures which are additive over links in transport networks where link travel times are arbitrarily distributed independent random variables: Assuming smooth preferences, this holds only for specifications with a constant marginal utility of time at the origin and an exponential or affine marginal utility of time at the destination. We apply a generalized version of this model to stated preference data of car drivers' route and mode choice under uncertain travel times. Our analysis exposes some important methodological issues related to complex non-linear scheduling models: One issue is identifying the point in time where the marginal utility of being at the destination becomes larger than the marginal utility of being at the origin. Another issue is that models with the exponential marginal utility formulation suffer from empirical identification problems. Though our results are not decisive, they partly support the constant-affine specification, in which the value of travel time variability is proportional to the variance of travel time.},

abstract = {This paper reviews recent research into the demand inducing effects of new transportation capacity. We begin with a discussion of the basic theoretical background and then review recent research both in the UK and the US. Results of this research show strong evidence that new transportation capacity induces increased travel, both due to short run effects and long run changes in land use development patterns. While this topic has long been debated amongst transportation planners, the fundamental hypothesis and theory has long been apparent in studies of transportation economics and planning that evaluated different issues (e.g. travel time budgets and urban economic development effects). We summarize much of this work and relate the theoretical issues to recent empirical research. We then proceed to examine recent changes in transportation and environmental policy in the US and the UK. The role of the new knowledge of induced travel effects would be expected to lead to changes in the conduct of transportation and environmental policy. Changes in policy and implementation of those policies are still occurring and we provide some suggestions on how to move forward in these areas. ?? 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.},

In the Brighton trial, three-quarters of those who were loaned an e-bike used them at least once a week. Across the sample as a whole, average usage was in the order of 15– 20 miles per week, and was accompanied by an overall reduction in car mileage of 20{\%}. At the end of the trial, 38{\%} participants expected to cycle more in the future, and at least 70{\%} said that they would like to have an e-bike available for use in the future, and would cycle more if this was the case. This is consistent with the results of the European literature which shows that when e-bikes are made available, they get used; that a proportion of e-bike trips typically substitutes for car use; and that many people who take part in trials become interested in future e-bike use, or cycling more generally.},

abstract = {An evidence-based policy debate about future fuel demand requires reliable estimates for fuel price elasticities. Such predictions are often based on revealed preference (RP) data. However, this procedure will only yield reliable results in the absence of severe structural discontinuities. In order to overcome this potential limitation we used a situational stated preference (SP) survey to estimate the response to hypothetical fuel price changes beyond the scope of previous observations. We elicit fuel price elasticities for price increases up to four Euros per liter and find that the situational approach predicts the actual responses to previously observed fuel price changes very well. We conclude that applying a situational approach is particularly useful, if behavioral predictions for unprecedented (non-monetary) policy interventions or supply side shocks are of interest that go beyond the reach of standard RP approaches.},

abstract = {Citaci{\'{o}}n: Tirachini, A., Quiroz, M. (2016) Evasi{\'{o}}n del pago en transporte p{\'{u}}blico: evidencia internacional y lecciones para Santiago. Documento de Trabajo, Departamento de Ingenier{\'{i}}a Civil, Universidad de Chile, Julio de 2016. Puntos clave 1. La evasi{\'{o}}n en los buses de Transantiago se ha duplicado en 9 a{\~{n}}os y en la actualidad es una amenaza para la sustentabilidad financiera del sistema. 2. El nivel de evasi{\'{o}}n actual (alrededor de 28{\%}) es desproporcionado cuando se compara con ciudades de Europa o Australia (evasi{\'{o}}n bajo 10{\%}) o con el sistema Transmilenio en Bogot{\'{a}} (10-15{\%} de evasi{\'{o}}n). 3. Se escoge las ciudades de Mendoza, Bogot{\'{a}}, Madrid, Londres, Berl{\'{i}}n y Melbourne para una comparaci{\'{o}}n internacional. Se estudia tres variables: (i) la probabilidad de ser fiscalizado, relacionado a la tasa de inspecci{\'{o}}n, (ii) la multa que se debe pagar por evadir, y (iii) una variable socioecon{\'{o}}mica definida como el porcentaje de gasto en transporte (relaci{\'{o}}n entre ingresos y tarifa), tanto para un hogar promedio como para el primer quintil de ingreso. 4. Se encuentra que el valor de la multa en Santiago es de los m{\'{a}}s altos entre los casos analizados, tanto en valor absoluto como relativo a la tarifa. 5. El gasto en transporte en Santiago es relativamente alto para personas de bajos recursos, comparado a las ciudades de Mendoza y Bogot{\'{a}} (si en Bogot{\'{a}} el usuario recibe la tarifa subsidiada SISBEN). Sin embargo esta variable por s{\'{i}} sola no explica el excesivo nivel de evasi{\'{o}}n en Santiago, ya que el gasto en transporte se ha mantenido m{\'{a}}s o menos constante desde el inicio de Transantiago, mientras la evasi{\'{o}}n se ha duplicado. 2 6. La baja tasa de fiscalizaci{\'{o}}n s{\'{i}} es una variable relevante para explicar la evasi{\'{o}}n en Transantiago. La probabilidad promedio de ser fiscalizado en los buses de Santiago se estima en 0.11{\%} (aproximadamente 1 en 1000), mientras en el transporte p{\'{u}}blico de Berl{\'{i}}n tal probabilidad es 0.55{\%} (5 en 1000) y en Melbourne es 6.28{\%} (63 en 1000). En sistemas de transporte p{\'{u}}blico abiertos en general las tasas de inspecci{\'{o}}n son mayores al 1{\%}. 7. Basado en la evidencia y en la experiencia internacional en el combate a la evasi{\'{o}}n en el transporte p{\'{u}}blico, se hace las siguientes recomendaciones para Santiago: a. Incrementar significativamente y agilizar la fiscalizaci{\'{o}}n de evasi{\'{o}}n en los buses de Transantiago. Se debe aumentar la cantidad de fiscalizadores por bus y la cantidad de buses fiscalizados. Se recomienda permitir que en varios lugares la fiscalizaci{\'{o}}n y asignaci{\'{o}}n de multas pueda ser hecha sin la presencia de carabineros para poder ampliar el alcance de la fiscalizaci{\'{o}}n, y que adem{\'{a}}s se permita la fiscalizaci{\'{o}}n por inspectores vestidos de civil. b. La primera vez que un evasor sea infraccionado, la multa debe ser menor que en el caso de reincidencia. Adem{\'{a}}s se puede dar facilidades como descuentos si la multa se paga en el acto o a pocos d{\'{i}}as de cursada la infracci{\'{o}}n. c. Se debe hacer una fuerte campa{\~{n}}a publicitaria de concientizaci{\'{o}}n social, para desterrar la visi{\'{o}}n de que la evasi{\'{o}}n es una falta menor o que no es una falta en absoluto, arraigada en parte de la ciudadan{\'{i}}a. Se puede cambiar el t{\'{e}}rmino " evasi{\'{o}}n " a uno que realmente tenga una connotaci{\'{o}}n social negativa (como se hizo en Melbourne, un caso exitoso en reducci{\'{o}}n de la evasi{\'{o}}n). d. Se debe estudiar la implementaci{\'{o}}n de una tarifa preferencial para usuarios de bajos recursos. 8. Una reducci{\'{o}}n significativa de la evasi{\'{o}}n solo es posible con un paquete integrado de medidas en los diversos {\'{a}}mbitos descritos, donde la efectividad de cada medida se ver{\'{a}} potenciada por la implementaci{\'{o}}n de las dem{\'{a}}s. 9.

abstract = {Much of the empirical literature on fuel demand presents estimates derived from national data which do not permit any explicit consideration of the spatial structure of the economy. Intuitively we would expect the degree of spatial concentration of activities to have a strong link with transport fuel consumption. The present paper addresses this theme by estimating a fuel demand model for urban areas to provide a direct estimate of the elasticity of demand with respect to urban density. Fuel demand per capita is decomposed into car stock per capita, fuel consumption per kilometre and annual distance driven per car per year. Urban density is found to affect fuel consumption, mostly through variations in the car stock and in the distances travelled, rather than through fuel consumption per kilometre. {\textcopyright} 2009 Elsevier B.V.

abstract = {Move patterns are an essential method to incorporate domain knowledge into Go-playing programs. This paper presents a new Bayesian technique for supervised learning of such patterns from game records, based on a generalization of Elo ratings. Each sample move in the training data is considered as a victory of a team of pattern features. Elo ratings of individual pattern features are computed from these victories, and can be used in previously unseen positions to compute a probability distribution over legal moves. In this approach, several pattern features may be combined, without an exponential cost in the number of features. Despite a very small number of training games (652), this algorithm outperforms most previous pattern-learning algorithms, both in terms of mean log-evidence (−2.69), and prediction rate (34.9{\%}). A 19 × 19 Monte-Carlo program improved with these patterns reached the level of the strongest classical programs.},

abstract = {The game of Go has long been viewed as the most challenging of classic games for ar-tificial intelligence due to its enormous search space and the difficulty of evaluating board positions and moves. We introduce a new approach to computer Go that uses value networks to evaluate board positions and policy networks to select moves. These deep neural networks are trained by a novel combination of supervised learning from human expert games, and reinforcement learning from games of self-play. Without any lookahead search, the neural networks play Go at the level of state-of-the-art Monte-Carlo tree search programs that sim-ulate thousands of random games of self-play. We also introduce a new search algorithm that combines Monte-Carlo simulation with value and policy networks. Using this search al-gorithm, our program AlphaGo achieved a 99.8{\%} winning rate against other Go programs, and defeated the European Go champion by 5 games to 0. This is the first time that a com-puter program has defeated a human professional player in the full-sized game of Go, a feat previously thought to be at least a decade away. All games of perfect information have an optimal value function, v * (s), which determines the outcome of the game, from every board position or state s, under perfect play by all players. These games may be solved by recursively computing the optimal value function in a search tree containing approximately b d possible sequences of moves, where b is the game's breadth (number 1},

A theoretical discussion then shows that estimated ‘values of time' are likely to be conflations of several different effects, most probably varying from study to study. Results are then given from a case study where special care was taken to separate out these effects. As an Adaptive Stated Preference method is used, arguments are presented that counter the suggestion that resulting estimates will necessarily be biased. The paper ends with some conclusions.},

abstract = {The value of time for freight transport is of major importance in infrastruc- ture-related cost–benefit analysis and yet its study has been largely neglected when compared with its passenger counterpart. In fact, one of the attributes that could decide the profitability of a project is how much can be saved if freight vehicles use new infra- structure. Despite being the primary benefit of most investments in transport infrastruc- ture, researchers have not yet reached agreement over either the size or the nature of the values of time that should be used when evaluating projects. This article provides a review of the estimation of freight value of time through transport demand modelling and extant empirical evidence on this topic. Similarly, the bibliographic review of studies undertaken has allowed us to pinpoint the most critical issues when modelling freight transport demand and the position of various research teams regarding these aspects. Such issues include identifying the decision-maker, heterogeneity in the transport flows and transport attributes considered by decision-makers.},

abstract = {In attempting to simulate the operation of a dynamic route guidance system, the modelling task is concerned both with the operation of the control system and with the implications this has for modelling driver behaviour (whether or not the driver is receiving information from the controller) and network conditions. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the modelling issues which need to be considered when addressing such a problem, and which have been identified by various authors in reports on experimental/survey work and in discussion papers. In discussing the great number of challenges to the modelling world which have arisen from the interest in such systems, we seek to stimulate further discussion and to provide a framework within which any route guidance model may be critically evaluated. We consider such a framework to be particularly timely in the light of the wealth of simulation models currently being proposed - and widely varying conclusions being drawn - as a result of many major research initiatives currently underway throughout the developed world. It is our belief that the development of a model which adequately represents the performance of a dynamic route guidance system is of the utmost importance to the success of such an approach. It will not only provide a means for evaluating the potential benefits, but should also provide an essential insight into the most appropriate means for its implementation and improve our understanding of transportation networks.},

abstract = {This paper concern cost benefit analysis for road infrastructure investments. It will present our findings in this area as well as it will present the current state of research. It investigates the impact of VOT for road freight when the origins of transports are taken into account and for owned and hired transports. Also distance is considered. VOT is found to be dependent on combinations of region, transported distance, ownership conditions and industry branch. However, available data does not allow for significant values in each category. Altogether the study indicates a VOT spanning from 0 to 732 SEK, which should be compared with the average value of 80 SEK used today. We further investigate the performance of estimation methods. The traditional logit model is compared with the semi-parametric weighted average density (WAD) estimator. It is found that the performance for the WAD estimator in terms of bias and mean square error is similar to the logit ML estimator for spherical errors in a latent variable specification. Dedicated methods for prediction of road freight flows as well as a integrated VOT/flow models are investigated. Three traditional gravity model specifications (OLS, NLS, and Poisson regression) are compared with a neural network specification. It is found that the Poisson model performs best in terms of root mean square error (RMSE) but also that the size of predicted flows is dependent on the method chosen to evaluate available estimation methods. The integrated models are logit models and neural networks with linear and non-linear profit functions are compared. The study indicates that the average VOT may decrease when prediction improves as models are given more non-linear specifications.},

The new approach offered significant advantages, as it allowed us to incorporate three latent variables with a large data sample and with 10 ordinal indicators of the latent variables, and still estimate the model without any convergence problems. The data used in the empirical analysis originates from a survey undertaken in Cyprus in 2012. The results underscore the importance of incorporating subjective attitudinal variables in school mode choice modeling. The results also emphasize the need to improve bus and walking safety, and communicate such improvements to the public, especially to girls and women and high income households. The model application also provides important information regarding the value of investing in bicycling and walking infrastructure.},

abstract = {The performance of a predictive model is overestimated when simply determined on the sample of subjects that was used to construct the model. Several internal validation methods are available that aim to provide a more accurate estimate of model performance in new subjects. We evaluated several variants of split-sample, cross-validation and bootstrapping methods with a logistic regression model that included eight predictors for 30-day mortality after an acute myocardial infarction. Random samples with a size between n = 572 and n = 9165 were drawn from a large data set (GUSTO-I; n = 40,830; 2851 deaths) to reflect modeling in data sets with between 5 and 80 events per variable. Independent performance was determined on the remaining subjects. Performance measures included discriminative ability, calibration and overall accuracy. We found that split-sample analyses gave overly pessimistic estimates of performance, with large variability. Cross-validation on 10{\%} of the sample had low bias and low variability, but was not suitable for all performance measures. Internal validity could best be estimated with bootstrapping, which provided stable estimates with low bias. We conclude that split-sample validation is inefficient, and recommend bootstrapping for estimation of internal validity of a predictive logistic regression model. {\textcopyright} 2001 Elsevier Science Inc.

@article{Walker1940,
abstract = {A concept of central importance to modern statistical theory which few textbooks have attempted to clarify is that of "degrees of freedom." For the mathematician who reads the original papers in which statistical theory is now making such rapid advances, the concept is a familiar one needing no particular explanation. For the person who is unfamiliar with N-dimensional geometry or who knows the contributions to modern sampling theory only from secondhand sources such as textbooks, this concept often seems almost mystical, with no practical meaning. Tippett, one of the few textbook writers who attempt to make any general explanation of the concept, begins his account (p. 64) with the sentence, "This conception of degrees of freedom is not altogether easy to attain, and we cannot attempt a full justification of it here; but we shall show its reasonableness and shall illustrate it, hoping that as a result of familiarity with its use the reader will appreciate it." Not only do most texts omit all mention of the concept but many actually give incorrect formulas and procedures because of ignoring it. In the work of modern statisticians, the concept of degrees of freedom is not found before "Student's" paper of 1908, it was first made explicit by the writings of R. A. Fisher, beginning with his paper of 1915 on the distribution of the correlation coefficient, and has only within the decade or so received general recognition. Nevertheless the concept was familiar to Gauss and his astronomical associates. In his classical work on the Theory of the Combination of Observations (Theoria Combinationis Observationum Erroribus Minimis Obnoxiae) and also in a work generalizing the theory of least squares with reference to the combination of observations (Erg{\"{a}}nzung zur Theorie der den kleinsten Fehlern unterworfen Combination der Beobachtungen, 1826), he states both in words and by formula that the number of observations is to be decreased by the number of unknowns estimated from the data to serve as divisor in estimating the standard error},

@article{Varma2006,
abstract = {Background: Cross-validation (CV) is an effective method for estimating the prediction error of a classifier. Some recent articles have proposed methods for optimizing classifiers by choosing classifier parameter values that minimize the CV error estimate. We have evaluated the validity of using the CV error estimate of the optimized classifier as an estimate of the true error expected on independent data. Results: We used CV to optimize the classification parameters for two kinds of classifiers; Shrunken Centroids and Support Vector Machines (SVM). Random training datasets were created, with no difference in the distribution of the features between the two classes. Using these "null" datasets, we selected classifier parameter values that minimized the CV error estimate. 10-fold CV was used for Shrunken Centroids while Leave-One-Out-CV (LOOCV) was used for the SVM. Independent test data was created to estimate the true error. With "null" and "non null" (with differential expression between the classes) data, we also tested a nested CV procedure, where an inner CV loop is used to perform the tuning of the parameters while an outer CV is used to compute an estimate of the error. The CV error estimate for the classifier with the optimal parameters was found to be a substantially biased estimate of the true error that the classifier would incur on independent data. Even though there is no real difference between the two classes for the "null" datasets, the CV error estimate for the Shrunken Centroid with the optimal parameters was less than 30{\%} on 18.5{\%} of simulated training data-sets. For SVM with optimal parameters the estimated error rate was less than 30{\%} on 38{\%} of "null" data-sets. Performance of the optimized classifiers on the independent test set was no better than chance. The nested CV procedure reduces the bias considerably and gives an estimate of the error that is very close to that obtained on the independent testing set for both Shrunken Centroids and SVM classifiers for "null" and "non-null" data distributions. Conclusion: We show that using CV to compute an error estimate for a classifier that has itself been tuned using CV gives a significantly biased estimate of the true error. Proper use of CV for estimating true error of a classifier developed using a well defined algorithm requires that all steps of the algorithm, including classifier parameter tuning, be repeated in each CV loop. A nested CV procedure provides an almost unbiased estimate of the true error.},

This is a somewhat shocking discovery, because ne/n -* 1 is totally opposite to the popular leave-one-out recipe in cross-validation.

abstract = {The purpose of this paper is to explore to what extent the effects of congestion charges rely on specific features of a city and its transport system. We use Stockholm, and its current congestion charging scheme, as a case study by making various modifications in the transport system influencing the availability and attractiveness of public transport, bypasses and bottleneck capacities. We use a transport model to forecast the effects of the Stockholm charges given each transport system modification. Our main conclusion is that although the social benefit of a given charging system is considerably and non-linearly dependent on initial congestion levels, traffic effects and adaptations costs are surprisingly stable across transport system modifications. Specifically, the level of public transport provision has only small effects on baseline congestion, and therefore on the total benefit of the charges. Contrary to expectation, the charges' effect on traffic volumes remains virtually unchanged regardless of the changes in public transport supply. All results are compared to and consistent with the one-market standard model. We interpret our results with respect to common arguments against the transferability of experiences from cities having introduced congestion charges.},

abstract = {This paper compares forecast effects of the Stockholm congestion charges with actual outcomes. The most important concerns during the design of the congestion charging scheme were the traffic reduction in bottlenecks, the increase in public transport ridership, the decrease of vehicle kilometres in the city centre, and potential traffic effects on circumferential roads. Comparisons of forecasts and actual outcomes show that the transport model predicted all of these factors well enough to allow planners to draw correct conclusions regarding the design and preparations for the scheme. The one major shortcoming was that the static assignment network model was unable to predict the substantial reductions of queuing times. We conclude that the transport model worked well enough to be useful as decision support, performing considerably better than unaided "experts' judgments", but that results must be interpreted taking the model's limitations into account. The positive experiences from the Stockholm congestion charges hence seem to be transferable to other cities in the sense that if a charging system is forecast to have beneficial effects on congestion, then this is most likely true. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The ability to alter one's emotional responses is central to overall well-being and to effectively meeting the demands of life. One of the chief symptoms of events such as trauma, that overwhelm our capacities to successfully handle and adapt to them, is a shift in our internal baseline reference such that there ensues a repetitive activation of the traumatic event. This can result in high vigilance and over-sensitivity to environmental signals which are reflected in inappropriate emotional responses and autonomic nervous system dynamics. In this article we discuss the perspective that one's ability to self-regulate the quality of feeling and emotion of one's moment-to-moment experience is intimately tied to our physiology, and the reciprocal interactions among physiological, cognitive, and emotional systems. These interactions form the basis of information processing networks in which communication between systems occurs through the generation and transmission of rhythms and patterns of activity. Our discussion emphasizes the communication pathways between the heart and brain, as well as how these are related to cognitive and emotional function and self-regulatory capacity. We discuss the hypothesis that self-induced positive emotions increase the coherence in bodily processes, which is reflected in the pattern of the heart's rhythm.This shift in the heart rhythm in turn plays an important role in facilitating higher cognitive functions, creating emotional stability and facilitating states of calm. Over time, this establishes a new inner-baseline reference, a type of implicit memory that organizes perception, feelings, and behavior. Without establishing a new baseline reference, people are at risk of getting " stuck " in familiar, yet unhealthy emotional and behavioral patterns and living their lives through the automatic filters of past familiar or traumatic experience.},

abstract = {This paper fills a gap in our knowledge of active-transport (AT) walking, by presenting detailed aspects of walking behavior for a medium-sized North American city. It analyzes the frequency and length of walking episodes, categorized by origins, purposes, and destinations, and also investigates distance-decay functions for major destinations. The study employs day-after recall time diary and questionnaire data from the 2007-8 Space-Time Activity Research (STAR) survey conducted in Halifax, Canada. GPS co-ordinate data enhanced the accuracy of location information, start times, and end times of the 1790 AT walking episodes, while GIS software was used to compute a shortest-path distance between the origin and destination of each episode. Home is both the most common origin and destination for AT walks, and the most common purpose is travel-to-shop rather than travel-to-work. Most walks are to non-home locations, such as retail establishments and offices. Particularly important are restaurants and bars, grocery stores, shopping centers, banks, and other services. All major destinations show strong distance-decay effects: most walks are shorter than 600. m, and very few exceed 1200. m. The assumption employed in the walkability literature, that one should restrict the neighborhood of opportunity to walking destinations within 1000. m of the home, is seen to be well justified. However, a planning policy focus on the walkers home neighborhood is revealed as questionable, since the majority of walking trips do not originate from the home. The relationship between urban land-use patterns and walkability may therefore require some rethinking. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Understanding travellers' behaviour is key element in transportation planning. This article presents a route choice model for metro networks that considers different time components as well as variables related to the transferring experience, train crowding, network topology and socio-demographic characteristics. The route choice model is applied to the London Underground and Santiago Metro networks, to make a comparison of the decision making process of the users on both cities. As all the variables are statistically significant, it is possible to affirm that public transport users take into account a wide variety of elements when choosing routes. While in London the travellers prefer to spend time walking, in Santiago is preferable to spend time waiting. Santiago Metro users are more willing to travel in crowded trains than London Underground users. Both user groups have a similar dispreference to transfers after controlling for the time spent on transfer, but different attitudes to ascending and descending transfers. Topological factors presented on a distorted Metro map are more important than actual topology to passengers' route choice decisions. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

Further, the study investigates how differences in price elasticities of demand in the peak- and off-peak period can enable an increase in revenues as well as the total number of passengers while dampening the peak-load problema through price discrimination. The data is set up to examine the effect of the price on the number of passengers travelling by subway from January 1999 to December 2008. A number of control variables are used to isolate the effect of a price change in our econometric model. Thereafter, the elasticities of demand for each period are calculated in order to find Ramsey prices that can be used when a monopoly firm maximizes profit and minimizes the welfare loss. The study concludes that the Price elasticities of demand differ between the peak- and the off-peak period and that SL should charge a higher price in the peakperiod and a lower price in the off-peak period to both increase their revenue, the total number of passengers, and reduce their problems associated with the peak-load demand.},

abstract = {As stated by the Behavioral Model of the Environment, the built environment has a clear influence on walking at three different levels: origins and destinations, the areas surrounding them, and the routes connecting them. Nevertheless, the vast majority of research on the relationship between the built environment and travel has focused on origins and the areas surrounding them (the residential neighborhood), so our understanding of the influence of destinations and routes remains limited. In this paper, we develop a Structural Equations Model to explain pedestrian commuting behavior, i.e. walking distance and number of walking trips, controlling for socio-economic factors, attitudes and commuting distance, whilst comparing the built environments of origins with those of destinations. The built environment was described by means of several GIS-based indicators reflecting density, diversity, design and accessibility, using floating catchment areas for each building identified as an origin or destination of any trip. Our results show that the characteristics of destinations are significant predictors of walking behavior. Moreover, accessibility assumes a mediating role between the built environment and walking behavior, suggesting that it should be explicitly measured to explain that behavior and conceived not as an additional dimension of the built environment, but as a variable determined by it. Therefore, special attention should be paid towards urban planning of major urban destinations, since improving their multimodal accessibility and local walking conditions can contribute to increased walking activity.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Walking is the most common physical activity for adults with important implications for urban planning and public health. Recreational walking has received considerably more attention than walking for transport, and differences between them remain poorly understood. METHODS: Using time-use data collected from 1971 randomly-chosen adults in Halifax, Canada, we identified walking for transport and walking for recreation events, and then computed participation rates, occurrences, mean event durations, and total daily durations in order to examine the participants and timing, while the locations were examined using origin-destination matrices. We compared differences using McNemar's test for participation rates, Wilcoxon test for occurrences and durations, and Chi-Square test for locations. RESULTS: Results illustrate many significant differences between the 2 types of walking, related to participants, timing, and locations. For example, results indicate a daily average of 3.1 walking for transport events, each lasting 8 minutes on average, compared with 1.4 recreational walking events lasting 39 minutes on average. Results also indicate more than two-thirds of recreational walks are home-based, compared with less than one-fifth of transport walks. CONCLUSIONS: This research highlights the importance of both types of walking, while also casting suspicion on the traditional home-based paradigm used to measure "walkability."},

abstract = {Abstract Rising levels of childhood obesity in the United States and a 75{\%} decline in the proportion of children walking to school in the past 30 years have focused attention on school travel. This paper uses data from the US Department of Transportation's 2001 National Household Travel Survey to analyze the factors affecting mode choice for elementary and middle school children. The analysis shows that walk travel time is the most policy-relevant factor affecting the decision to walk to school with an estimated direct elasticity of 0.75. If policymakers want to increase walking rates, these findings suggest that current policies, such as Safe Routes to School, which do not affect the spatial distribution of schools and residences will not be enough to change travel behavior. The final part of the paper uses the mode choice model to test how a land use strategy— community schools—might affect walking to school. The results show that community schools have the potential to increase walking rates but would require large changes from current land use, school, and transportation planning practices.},

abstract = {The mode used to travel to work and how frequently an individual walks for all purposes is examined. Commuting by public transit, in particular, is hypothesized to lead to more overall walking, relative to commuting with a car. A statewide computer assisted telephone survey in New Jersey (n=530) was used to collect information on the mode usually used for the commute, the frequency of walking for all purposes, socio-demographic characteristics and neighborhood indicators of the presence of destinations within a 10. min walk. Ordered probit models of the frequency of walk trips were estimated. Respectively, 63{\%} and 68{\%}, of those commuting by transit and walking or bicycling report walking at least once a day. Public transit commuters walked more frequently for all purposes than car commuters; and almost as frequently as those walking to work. There were significant differences in walking frequency between transit modes (bus vs. train/subway/light rail) and non-significant differences between transit access mode (walking vs. park-and-ride). Working from home was not associated with more frequent walking. The time that a transit user spent walking to transit stations or stops was on average slightly shorter than the time spent walking during a journey to work by walking. Walking more to access neighborhood destinations seemed to account for this higher frequency of walking in transit users. Transit service and neighborhood destinations may be complementary in supporting increased walking activity and transit use. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Whether high or low incidence of pedestrian travel in mixed-use, medium-density environments is due to site design characteristics, and specifically to presence of direct, continuous, and safe pedestrian sys- tems, is examined. Twelve neighborhood centers or sites in the Puget Sound area of Washington were selected by matching gross residential density, median income, automobile ownership, and intensity and type of neighborhood commercial development. Pedestrians and bicyclists were recorded that traveled into the commercial area. A clear break emerges between urban and suburban sites. The average urban pedes- trian volume is 37.7 pedestrians per hour per 1,000 residents, which is 3 times higher than the 12.5 pedestrians per hour per 1,000 residents in suburban sites. These results strongly support the hypothesis that, when holding other variables constant, the urban versus suburban dif- ference in route directness and completeness of pedestrian facilities (namely, block size and sidewalk length) affects pedestrian volumes. The research also questions the common belief that people do not walk in the suburbs. Given appropriate land use conditions, pedestrian facil- ity improvement programs in suburban areas can support pedestrian travel and have a significant influence on mode choice.},

abstract = {Walking accessibility is defined as how easy it is to access public transport terminals by walking. Walking effort instead of walking distance or walking time is used to represent the utility of walking as access mode to public transport terminals (Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) stations). This effort is expressed by an equivalent walking distance, which consists of actual walking distance and generalized walking effort. The main objective of this research is to develop walking accessibility measure using equivalent walking distance. The probability of walking is introduced to show the acceptable walking distance to public transport terminal. This concept assumes that for every distance to the terminal, there is a probability of walking to access. Eventually, all components of walking route would be converted to equivalent distance. Each type of walking routes to access public transport (i.e. walkways, sidewalks and road crossings) has some elements that influence the effort of walking.},

abstract = {This paper reports on a survey of pedestrian trips to transit that examined the trip lengths and route choices made by people walking to five rail transit stations in California and Oregon. In highly motorized countries such as the US, policy-makers are beginning to recognize that shifting some travel from auto trips to walking trips can help the country achieve important policy objectives such as combating obesity and reducing the air pollution and oil dependency that result from auto use. However, researchers know very little about pedestrian behaviour and the role of the built and aesthetic environment in influencing pedestrian trips to transit. As communities wrestle with the interconnected issues of obesity, sprawl, and quality of life, planners need to understand how far Americans will walk to transit and the environmental factors that influence them. This survey of 328 pedestrians walking to rail stations, primarily on weekday mornings, found that they were willing to walk an average of half a mile to the rail station and that minimizing the distance walked was the most important factor influencing their choice of route. The people surveyed also frequently mentioned safety factors as important in route choice. Aesthetic elements of the built environment, on the other hand, were rarely mentioned as important route choice factors. The paper concludes by using these survey findings to recommend strategies that planners, designers, and policy-makers can use to design successful transit and pedestrian-oriented developments.},

City traffic is a high frequency control of the activity level of the city. The elasticities to changes in tolls and fuel were all low in absolute value. The toll elasticities were below 0.05 for two freeways and 0.16 for the third, while for the fourth, which had more alternative routes, it was 0.47. The fuel price elasticities were also heterogeneous, with values of approximately 0.45 for two freeways and 0.21 for the third whereas for the fourth, which had the fewest alternatives, it was 0.07.},

abstract = {Typically, mode choice behaviour is studied as a function of observed travel factors. Given the importance of unobservable factors on choice behaviour, this paper deviates from this approach. We analysed cycling as mode choice to access railway stations, incorporating latent variables and psychometric data to capture relatively intangible factors that influence mode choice. Such factors are not observable, but can manifest themselves through adjustable indicators. The database used for this paper contains 12000 observations of journeys carried out in the Rotterdam – The Hague area in the Netherlands, covering thirty-five railway stations. In addition to using a traditional binary logit model, we estimated three hybrid choice models for access mode choice. These hybrid choice models represented observed and unobserved factors simultaneously, including the train users' perception of connectivity, attitude towards station environment and perceived quality of bicycle facilities. The results show that both attitudes and observable travel-related elements are important in the decision to cycle to the station or not. Variations in these perceptions and attitudes significantly affect the bicycle-train share. At the same time, improvements in unguarded bicycle parking facilities may increase the number of people who cycle to the train station more than improvements in guarded bicycle parking would. Moreover, the availability of the parking facilities is crucial during rush hours. Another conclusion is that transport strategies to encourage bicycle-train use must be implemented by station type, i.e. measures to encourage bicycle access at larger stations. Further research would develop a hybrid choice model for egress, and a stated choice experiment would compare these results.},

abstract = {Switzerland offers a dense network of public transport means. The Swiss General Ticket (GT) is a popular travel pass, which allows the use of most of the public transport facilities in Switzerland. The buying behavior for public transport general tickets underlies a complex decision process. Public transport customers can deal with the complexity in two ways: either one decides on choice heuristics according to ones rather emotional beliefs or decides systematically based on a rational price comparison. Judgment and decision theory creates the basis for the discussion of heuristic versus systematic decision-making in this paper.The goal of the study is the explanation of the two consumer typologies when buying a GT along the continuum from more heuristically to systematically made decisions. Drivers for a more heuristically based as opposed to a systematically based decision process, taking into consideration endogenous and exogenous factors, are evaluated.Literature provides some relevant heuristic and systematic decision factors. Primary research with railway customers in Switzerland (research panel) was conducted using an exploratory, semi-standardized approach using the laddering technique, which helps to identify relevant factors involved in the buying decision process. Functional attributes, which were put into context of higher-level personal values using the means-end approach, were detected. These functional attributes are the ones influencing a buying decision.Results show that convenience factors have a high influence when it comes to purchasing a season ticket, but price is the crucial factor behind the final purchase decision. ?? 2014 Hong Kong Society for Transportation Studies.},

abstract = {Purpose: This paper addresses the urban transit sector investigating variables affecting the habitual modal choices of commuters aiming to gain insight into the key factors affecting these choices and the reasons that discourage them from using public transport services. Methods: Probit and structural equation models have been estimated, while additional statistical analysis was performed to gain better insight of the commuters' mobility behavior. Results: The analysis showed that the main factor affecting the preference of commuters toward passenger car is the availability of parking space. A preference of female respondents towards public transport was also evident, while, compared to the other age groups, respondents between the ages of 35 and 44 show a higher preference for car. Furthermore, crowding is the factor that most discourages respondents from the use of public transport. High fare, lack of public transport information and bad accessibility to the transit network do not seem to discourage respondents' use of public transport in the particular situation that was analyzed in this research. Conclusions: The paper demonstrated how the results drawn from the analysis can be used for tactical and strategic planning. For example, the fact that high fare levels do not discourage commuters from using public transport, may allow policy makers to slightly increase fares and redirect additional revenue to improve other public transport services. Therefore, such findings may be quite useful for policy makers to better tackle commuters' perception and to define the appropriate urban mobility management actions and policies. {\textcopyright} 2012 The Author(s).},

abstract = {The importance of using multipurpose smart cards in transit systems has been recently recognized by users and transit operation agencies. However, only a few studies have focused on users' perspectives when researching the use of multipurpose smart cards in transit systems. This study thus adopts the revised new product adoption model and considers the specific characteristics of transit use as a research framework to examine the effects of constructs on consumer intention to use smart cards in transit systems. The first stage of the study employs structural equation modeling (SEM). Critical attributes identified during the first-stage survey are then extracted to design the stated preference method questionnaire for the second stage. During this stage, user choice behavior is investigated and changes in the adoption rates of different payment alternatives are predicted under various scenarios. Data from two metropolitan areas are then analyzed and compared. SEM analysis results reveal that consumer use intention is significantly influenced by perceived product attribute, promotion strategy, and perceived risk. The last one is demonstrated to have an effect on perceived product attribute for consumers in terms of metropolitan difference. Initial card cost, transit fare, consumption discount, and personal information protection are further considered as critical factors that affect the possible adoption rate of smart card use in transit systems based on the analytical results obtained by the mixed logit model. The sensitivity analysis results indicate that reducing transit fare and protecting personal information significantly impact adoption rate changes of different payment alternatives. This study also offers several managerial implications and suggests future research directions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]},

abstract = {This paper provides an empirical basis for the evaluation of policies and programs that can increase the usage of bikes for different purposes as well as bike ownership. It uses an integrated econometric model of latent variable connecting multiple discrete choices. Empirical models are estimated by using a bicycle demand survey conducted in the City of Toronto in 2009. Empirical investigations reveal that latent perceptions of 'bikeability' and 'safety consciousness' directly influence the choice of biking. It is also found that the choice of the level of bike ownership (number of bikes) is directly influenced by latent 'comfortability of biking'. The number of bikes owned moreover has a strong influence on the choices of biking for different purposes. It is clear that bike users in the City of Toronto are highly safety conscious. Increasing on-street and separate bike lanes proved to have the maximum effects on attracting more people to biking by increasing the perception of bikeability in the city, comfortability of biking in the city and increasing bike users' sense of safety. In terms of individuals' characteristics, older males are found to be the most conformable and younger females are the least comfortable group of cyclists in Toronto.},

In this paper, an integrated choice and latent variable model tracing the impact of decision uncertainty on the valuation of flood risk reductions in the Netherlands is developed. The proposed model structure is not subject to the potential endogeneity bias and measurement error issues associated with most applied methods. The driving factors of decision uncertainty are identified through stated choices and a set of self-reported decision uncertainty follow-up questions. The model simultaneously accounts for the impact of decision uncertainty on individual choices and welfare estimates. In the presented case study uncertain respondents are found to make more random choices and select the opt out option more often. Willingness-to-pay for flood risk reductions increases after accounting for these behavioural responses to decision uncertainty.},

abstract = {The endowment effect—the tendency for owners (potential sellers) to value objects more than potential buyers do—is among the most widely studied judgment and decision-making phenomena. However, the current research is the first to explore whether the effect varies across cultures. Given previously demonstrated cultural differences in self-construals and self-enhancement, we predicted a smaller endowment effect for East Asians compared with Westerners. Two studies involving buyers and sellers of a coffee mug (Study 1a) and a box of chocolates (Study 1b) supported this prediction. Study 2 conceptually replicated this cultural difference by experimentally manipulating independent and interdependent self-construals. Finally, Study 3 provided evidence for an underlying self-enhancement mechanism: Cultural differences emerged when self-object associations were made salient, but disappeared when self-object associations were minimized. Thus, the endowment effect may be influenced by the degree to which independence and self-enhancement (vs. interdependence and self-criticism) are culturally valued or normative.},

abstract = {Consumer choices reflect not only price and quality preferences but also social and moral values, as witnessed in the remarkable growth of the global market for organic and environmentally friendly products. Building on recent research on behavioral priming and moral regulation, we found that mere exposure to green products and the purchase of such products lead to markedly different behavioral consequences. In line with the halo associated with green consumerism, results showed that people act more altruistically after mere exposure to green products than after mere exposure to conventional products. However, people act less altruistically and are more likely to cheat and steal after purchasing green products than after purchasing conventional products. Together, our studies show that consumption is connected to social and ethical behaviors more broadly across domains than previously thought.},

abstract = {Does moral behavior draw on a belief in free will? Two experiments examined whether inducing participants to believe that human behavior is predetermined would encourage cheating. In Experiment 1, participants read either text that encouraged a belief in determinism (i.e., that portrayed behavior as the consequence of environmental and genetic factors) or neutral text. Exposure to the deterministic message increased cheating on a task in which participants could passively allow a flawed computer program to reveal answers to mathematical problems that they had been instructed to solve themselves. Moreover, increased cheating behavior was mediated by decreased belief in free will. In Experiment 2, participants who read deterministic statements cheated by overpaying themselves for performance on a cognitive task; participants who read statements endorsing free will did not. These findings suggest that the debate over free will has societal, as well as scientific and theoretical, implications.},

The ability to resist a tempting, immediately available reward in order to obtain a larger delayed reward is the hallmark of self-control, and predicts important life outcomes, such as academic achievement (Duckworth {\&} Seligman, 2005) and social adjustment (Mischel {\&}Ayduk, 2004). Unfortunately, immediate rewards are often difficult to resist. One key factor that makes them so appealing is temporal discounting—the tendency to consider events as less important if they occur in the distant future, rather than in the near future (Ainslie, 2001). This tendency tempts people to choose a small immediate reward over a larger delayed reward, simply because the first is im- mediately available. But such a choice can greatly sabotage the attainment of long-term goals.},

Specifically, in the fall of their final year in school, students were administered a scale that measured maximizing tendencies and were then followed over the course of the year as they searched for jobs. Students with high maximizing tendencies secured jobs with 20{\%} higher starting salaries than did students with low maximizing tendencies. However, maximizers were less satisfied than satisficers with the jobs they obtained, and experienced more negative affect throughout the job-search process. These effects were mediated by maximizers ' greater reli- ance on external sources of information and their fixation on realized and unrealized options during the search and selection process.},

Such schemes, which aim to improve the quality and efficiency of healthcare by the use of financial incentives to encourage desirable behaviours, have been adopted as a key strategy by the NHS in the United Kingdom, Medicare in the United States, and many private insurers. The schemes are based on a basic tenet of economics and psychology: that people respond to rewards.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nBeyond the simple criticism that pay for performance can't operate on an extended time frame and that years may elapse between treatment and outcome, the concept of pay for performance in healthcare rests on flawed assumptions about medicine, measurement, and motivation.

However, a growing body of evidence from behavioral economics and social psychology indicates that rewards can undermine motivation and worsen performance on complex cognitive tasks, especially when motivation is high to begin with.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nOne questionable assumption underlying pay for performance is that measurements of doctors' performance reflect their {\ldots}},

Experiment 2 shows that the effects of wearing counterfeit sunglasses extend beyond the self, influencing judgments of other people's unethical behavior. Experiment 3 demonstrates that the feelings of inauthenticity that wearing fake products engenders-what we term the counterfeit self-mediate the impact of counterfeits on unethical behavior. Finally, we show that people do not predict the impact of counterfeits on ethicality; thus, the costs of counterfeits are deceptive.},

Second, the human consensus PRDM9 allele is predicted to recognize the 13-mer motif enriched at human hotspots; this DNA binding specificity is verified by in vitro studies. Third, allelic variants of PRDM9 zinc fingers are significantly associated with variability in genome-wide hotspot usage among humans. Our results provide a molecular basis for the distribution of meiotic recombination in mammals, in which the binding of PRDM9 to specific DNA sequences targets the initiation of recombination at specific locations in the genome.},

However, methodological issues in previous research limit the latter conclusion. Three experiments resolved these issues and consistently found the opposite pattern: Individuals rewarded honesty more frequently and intensely than they punished deception. Experiment 2 extended these counterintuitive findings by revealing a divergence between evaluation and behavior: Evaluative reactions to deception were stronger than those to honesty, but behavioral intentions in response to honesty were stronger than those in response to deception. In addition, individuals wanted to avoid deceivers more than they wanted to approach honest actors. Experiment 3 found that punishment, but not reward, frequencies were sensitive to costs. Moderated-mediation tests revealed the role of different psychological mechanisms: Negative affect drove punishments, whereas perceived trustworthiness drove rewards. Overall, bad appears to be stronger than good in influencing psychological reactions, but good seems to be stronger than bad in influencing behavior.},

Presenting information as percentages attenuated the common-ratio effect and augmented the common-consequence effect, which suggests that these biases have different underlying mechanisms. Participants' percentage estimates of outcome likelihoods did not differ according to the format in which the information was presented; however, participants' nonverbal estimates of outcome likelihoods differed across formats. The results suggest that uncertainty information presented as percentages is processed differently than the same uncertainty information presented in other formats.},

In Study 2, we found that high school students are more likely to retake the SAT after obtaining a score just below rather than above a round number. In Study 3, we conducted an experiment employing hypothetical scenarios and found that participants reported a greater desire to exert more effort when their performance was just short of rather than just above a round number.},

abstract = {Researchers have documented many cases in which individuals rationalize their regrettable actions. Four experiments examine situations in which people go beyond merely explaining away their misconduct to actively deceiving themselves. We find that those who exploit opportunities to cheat on tests are likely to engage in self-deception, inferring that their elevated performance is a sign of intelligence. This short-term psychological benefit of self-deception, however, can come with longer-term costs: when predicting future performance, participants expect to perform equally well-a lack of awareness that persists even when these inflated expectations prove costly. We show that although people expect to cheat, they do not foresee self-deception, and that factors that reinforce the benefits of cheating enhance self-deception. More broadly, the findings of these experiments offer evidence that debates about the relative costs and benefits of self-deception are informed by adopting a temporal view that assesses the cumulative impact of self-deception over time.},

abstract = {Behavioral economists have proposed that money illusion, which is a deviation from rationality in which individuals engage in nominal evaluation, can explain a wide range of important economic and social phenomena. This proposition stands in sharp contrast to the standard economic assumption of rationality that requires individuals to judge the value of money only on the basis of the bundle of goods that it can buy – its real value – and not on the basis of the actual amount of currency – its nominal value. We used fMRI to investigate whether the brain's reward circuitry exhibits money illusion. Subjects received prizes in 2 different experimental conditions that were identical in real economic terms, but differed in nominal terms. Thus, in the absence of money illusion there should be no differences in activation in reward-related brain areas. In contrast, we found that areas of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), which have been previously associated with the processing of anticipatory and experienced rewards, and the valuation of goods, exhibited money illusion. We also found that the amount of money illusion exhibited by the vmPFC was correlated with the amount of money illusion exhibited in the evaluation of economic transactions.},

abstract = {What is a “rational” decision? Economists traditionally viewed rationality as maximizing expected satisfaction. This view has been useful in modeling basic microeconomic concepts, but falls short in accounting for many everyday human decisions. It leaves unanswered why some things reliably make people more satisfied than others, and why people frequently act to make others happy at a cost to themselves. Drawing on an evolutionary perspective, we propose that people make decisions according to a set of principles that may not appear to make sense at the superficial level, but that demonstrate rationality at a deeper evolutionary level. By this, we mean that people use adaptive domain-specific decision-rules that, on average, would have resulted in fitness benefits. Using this framework, we re-examine several economic principles. We suggest that traditional psychological functions governing risk aversion, discounting of future benefits, and budget allocations to multiple goods, for example, vary in predictable ways as a function of the underlying motive of the decision-maker and individual differences linked to evolved life-history strategies. A deep rationality framework not only helps explain why people make the decisions they do, but also inspires multiple directions for future research.},

The rank hypothesis contrasts with traditional reference-income hypotheses, which suggest that utility from income depends on comparison to a social reference-group norm. We found that the ranked position of an individual's income predicts general life satisfaction, whereas absolute income and reference income have no effect. Furthermore, individuals weight upward comparisons more heavily than downward comparisons. According to the rank hypothesis, income and utility are not directly linked: Increasing an individual's income will increase his or her utility only if ranked position also increases and will necessarily reduce the utility of others who will lose rank.},

@article{Kahneman2003,
abstract = {The work cited by the Nobel committee was done jointly with Amos Tversky (1937–1996) during a long and unusually close collaboration. Together, we explored the psychology of intu-itive beliefs and choices and examined their bounded rationality. Herbert A. Simon (1955, 1979) had proposed much earlier that decision makers should be viewed as boundedly rational, and had offered a model in which utility maxi-mization was replaced by satiss cing. Our re-search attempted to obtain a map of bounded rationality, by exploring the systematic biases that separate the beliefs that people have and the choices they make from the optimal beliefs and choices assumed in rational-agent models. The rational-agent model was our starting point and the main source of our null hypotheses, but Tversky and I viewed our research primarily as a contribution to psychology, with a possible contribution to economics as a secondary ben-e t. We were drawn into the interdisciplinary conversation by economists who hoped that psychology could be a useful source of assump-tions for economic theorizing, and indirectly a source of hypotheses for economic research (Richard H. Thaler, 1980, 1991, 1992). These hopes have been realized to some extent, giving rise to an active program of research by behav-ioral economists (Thaler, 2000; Colin Camerer et al., forthcoming; for other examples, see Kahneman and Tversky, 2000). My work with Tversky comprised three sep-arate programs of research, some aspects of which were carried out with other collaborators. The rst explored the heuristics that people use and the biases to which they are prone in vari-ous tasks of judgment under uncertainty, includ-ing predictions and evaluations of evidence (Kahneman and Tversky, 1973; Tversky and Kahneman, 1974; Kahneman et al., 1982). The second was concerned with prospect theory, a model of choice under risk (Kahneman and Tversky, 1979; Tversky and Kahneman, 1992) and with loss aversion in riskless choice (Kah-neman et al., 1990, 1991; Tversky and Kahne-man, 1991). The third line of research dealt with framing effects and with their implications for rational-agent models (Tversky and Kahneman, 1981, 1986). The present essay revisits these three lines of research in light of recent ad-vances in the psychology of intuitive judgment and choice. Many of the ideas presented here were anticipated informally decades ago, but the attempt to integrate them into a coherent approach to judgment and choice is recent. Economists often criticize psychological re-search for its propensity to generate lists of errors and biases, and for its failure to offer a coherent alternative to the rational-agent model. This complaint is only partly justi ed: psycho-logical theories of intuitive thinking cannot match the elegance and precision of formal nor-mative models of belief and choice, but this is just another way of saying that rational models are psychologically unrealistic. Furthermore, the alternative to simple and precise models is not chaos. Psychology offers integrative con-cepts and mid-level generalizations, which gain credibility from their ability to explain ostensi-bly different phenomena in diverse domains. In this spirit, the present essay offers a uni ed},

In a sample of working adults, wealthier individuals reported lower savoring ability (the ability to enhance and prolong positive emotional experience). Moreover, the negative impact of wealth on individuals' ability to savor undermined the positive effects of money on their happiness. We experimentally exposed participants to a reminder of wealth and produced the same deleterious effect on their ability to savor as that produced by actual individual differences in wealth, a result supporting the theory that money has a causal effect on savoring. Moving beyond self-reports, we found that participants exposed to a reminder of wealth spent less time savoring a piece of chocolate and exhibited reduced enjoyment of it compared with participants not exposed to wealth. This article presents evidence supporting the widely held but previously untested belief that having access to the best things in life may actually undercut people's ability to reap enjoyment from life's small pleasures.},

We hypothesize that monetary markets are highly sensitive to the magnitude of compensation, whereas social markets are not. This perspective can shed light on the well-established observation that people sometimes expend more effort in exchange for no payment (a social market) than they expend when they receive low payment (a monetary market). Three experiments support these ideas. The experimental evidence also demonstrates that mixed markets (markets that include aspects of both social and monetary markets) more closely resemble monetary than social markets.},

Three studies provide evidence that this difference in participation may occur in part because the requirement to opt-in or opt-out results in large differences in the meaning that individuals attach to participation. American participants in Study 1 rated participation as a significantly more substantial action when agreement was purportedly obtained under opt-in rather than opt-out conditions, and nonagreement as a greater abrogation of responsibility when that decision was made under opt-out rather than under opt-in conditions. Study 2 replicated these findings with respondents who live in Germany, which employs an opt-in donation policy, and in Austria, which has an opt-out policy. Study 3 required American participants to rate various actions that differ in the effort and self-sacrifice they demand. As predicted, the placement of organ donation on the resulting multidimensional scaling dimension differed significantly depending on whether it purportedly was made in an opt-in country (where it was considered roughly akin to giving away half of one's wealth to charity upon one's death) or an opt-out country (where it fell between letting others get ahead of one in line and volunteering some time to help the poor). We discuss the relationship between this change of meaning account and two other mechanisms-behavioral inertia and implicit norms-that we believe underlie the default effect in decision making and other effects of policies designed to influence decision-makers.},

abstract = {The neo-classical economics view that behavior is driven by - and reflective of - hedonic utility is challenged by psychologists' demonstrations of cases in which actions do not merely reveal preferences but rather create them. In this view, preferences are frequently constructed in the moment and are susceptible to fleeting situational factors; problematically, individuals are insensitive to the impact of such factors on their behavior, misattributing utility caused by these irrelevant factors to stable underlying preferences. Consequently, subsequent behavior might reflect not hedonic utility but rather this erroneously imputed utility that lingers in memory. Here we review the roles of these streams of utility in shaping preferences, and discuss how neuroimaging offers unique possibilities for disentangling their independent contributions to behavior. ?? 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

In line with social-norms theory, participants' level of unethical behavior increased when the confederate was an in-group member, but decreased when the confederate was an out-group member. In Experiment 2, our confederate instead asked a question about cheating, which merely strengthened the saliency of this possibility. This manipulation decreased the level of unethical behavior among the other group members.

We present research from a variety of samples (adults, children and primates) and methods (correlational and experimental) demonstrating that happier people give more, that giving indeed causes increased happiness, and that these two relationships may operate in a circular fashion. Second, we consider whether advertising these benefits of charitable giving – asking people to give in order to be happy – may have the perverse consequence of decreasing charitable giving, crowding out intrinsic motivations to give by corrupting a purely social act with economic considerations.},

However, when the no-choice option is selected no information is obtained on the relative attractiveness of the available alternatives. One potential solu- tion to this problem is to use a dual response format in which respondents first choose among a set of available alternatives in a forced-choice task and then choose among the available alternatives and a no-choice option. This paper uses a simulation to demonstrate and confirm the possible gains in efficiency of dual response over traditional choice-based conjoint tasks when there are different proportions choosing the no-choice option. Next, two choice-based con- joint analysis studies find little systematic violation of IIA with the addition/deletion of a no-choice option. Further analysis supports the hypothesis that selection of the no-choice option is more closely related to choice set attractiveness than to decision difficulty. Finally, validation evidence is presented. Our findings show that researchers can employ the dual response approach, taking advantages of the increased power of estimation, without concern for systematically biasing the resulting parameter esti- mates. Hence, we argue this is a valuable approach when there is the possibility of a large number of no-choices and preference heterogeneity.},

This paper assessed the implications from using alternative ‘opt-out' formats in choice experiment studies. Two alternative opt-out formats have been widely used, the ‘do not buy' format and the ‘buy/choose my current brand' format. The decision of which format to use in di{\#}erent cases may have a substantialimpact on the estimated parameters and welfare measures derived from choice experiment data. These impacts are examined in a data set from a choice experiment study on consumer resistance to genetically modified content in foods. A split sample design was used in which the first treatment was provided with the option of ‘not buying' the good at all while the second with an option of ‘buying their usual brand'. Information over the actual purchasing habits of this latter group was collected and was incorporated into the estimation processes. The results from each treatment were separately analyzed and the impact of alternative opt-out formats on response patterns and on the significance and stability of coe{\$}cients across treatment groups was examined. In addition, using findings from the experimental psychology literature the possible behavioral and psychological forces that are at work under each treatment were assessed. Finally, certain methodo- logical implications for the design of choice experiment studies are drawn.},

abstract = {Whereas most academic and industry studies of consumer preferences and decision making involve forced choice (i.e., participants are told to choose one of the presented product or service alternatives), buyers usually also have the option not to select any alternative. An implicit assumption in the experimental practice of forcing choice is that the no-choice option draws proportionately from the various available alternatives, such that the qualitative conclusions are unaffected. However, the authors propose that the no-choice option competes most directly with alternatives that buyers tend to select when they are uncertain about their preferences. Building on this general proposition, the authors show that the introduction of the no-choice option strengthens the attraction effect, weakens the compromise effect, and decreases the relative share of an option that is “average” on all dimensions. They also examine the mechanisms underlying the impact of having the option not to choose and the conditions under which the no-choice option is likely to affect relative option shares. The results are consistent with the notion that the no-choice option provides an alternative way of resolving difficult choices that is not available when subjects are forced to choose. The authors discuss the theoretical and practical implications of this research.},

This paper proposes a framework to model discrete choices in the presence of indifference alternatives. The approach allows depicting the likelihood function, independent of the number of alternatives in the choice-set and in the subset of indifference alternatives, offering a new approach to existing methods that are only defined for binary choice situations. The method is tested with the help of simulated and real data observing that the proposed framework allows recovering the parameters used in the generation of the synthetic datasets without major difficulties in most cases. Alternative approaches, such as considering the indifference option as an opt-out alternative or ignoring the indifference choices are clearly outperformed by the proposed framework and appear not capable of recovering parameters in the simulated set.},

To address this objective, a stated preference (SP) survey was designed to study commuters' willingness to pay for parking at park-and-ride transit stations. The SP survey was conducted at the 14 busiest park-and-ride transit stations in Greater Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada. The survey data were then used to model mode choice for longer-distance commuting trips by considering three major options: automobile all-way, transit all-way, and park-and-ride. A heteroscedastic multinomial logit model for stated preference of modal choices was estimated. The model included several major factors that were found to influence mode choice at park-and-ride stations. The estimated model parameters were then used to investigate direct and cross elasticities of parking charges at park-and-ride stations to mode choices. The model results show that an increase in parking charges at park-and-ride stations is more likely to divert current park-and-ride users to the transit all-way option compared with the private car all-way option.},

abstract = {Reliability is regularly cited by users of public transportation as one of the most important qualities of service. However, it is not yet well understood how transit riders are affected by unreliability, particularly in the long term. To gain a better understanding of the importance of reliability, a survey focusing on users of San Francisco's public transportation system in California was developed to investigate the link between people's past experiences of unreliability and the adaptation strategies that they used. Respondents were asked to rate the importance of a number of reliability aspects; the aspects found to be most important were the absence of a gap at a transfer stop and the ability to walk up to a stop and leave within 10 min. Users also reported that they considered reliability when planning trips. Common strategies for handling unreliability were using services and routes deemed more reliable and using real-time information. In addition, an ordinal logit model linking past experiences of unreliability to a reduction in transit use was estimated. The most significant negative experiences that drove a reduction in transit use were delays perceived to be the fault of the transit agency, long waits at transfer points, and being prevented from boarding because of crowding. These results have implications in transit planning: passengers may prefer more frequent service with occasional crowding over less frequent buses that are larger and less crowded. In addition, the growing use of real-time information services will continue to affect how people view transit service and perhaps even intensify the unattractiveness of infrequent service.},

In spite of the abundant use of logit models in transport, project assessment is only rarely done using logsums. Instead in project evaluation or appraisal, changes in transport costs and time (borrowing values of time from some source) are commonly used to get the traveller benefits. This report contains a review of the theoretical and applied literature on the use of logsums as a measure of consumer surplus change in project appraisal and evaluation. It then goes on to describe a case study with the Dutch National Model System (LMS) for transport in which the logsum method and the commonly used value of time method are compared for a specific project (high speed trains that would connect the four main cities in the Randstad: Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht).},

abstract = {Since the early 1980's, many countries have implemented electricity sector reforms. Many of these reforms have unbundled the generation, transmission, distribution, and supply activities of the sector and introduced competition in generation and supply. An increasing number of countries are also adopting incentive regulation to promote efficiency improvement in the natural monopoly activities -transmission and distribution. Incentive regulation almost invariably involves benchmarking or comparison of actual vs. some reference performance. This paper reviews the main approaches to incentive regulation and discusses various benchmarking methods. We also present the findings of a survey of the use of benchmarking methods in the OECD and few other countries. Our survey finds a variety of methods used by the electricity regulators although with a notable preference for the non-parametric methods. We then draw conclusions based on the findings of the survey highlighting the main outstanding issues and lessons for best practice implementation of benchmarking in electricity regulation.},

abstract = {Since the early 90s, the electricity demand in Chile has been steadily growing, first at an average rate of 8{\%} from 1990 to 2007 and later at an average of 5.7{\%} between 2008 and 2012. In the past, an increase in demand was followed by increases in supply, even though there were some shortage periods mostly due to droughts. During these shortages, consumers were rationed and there were even some blackout periods for some types of consumers. In this context of growing demand and stochastic energy supply in Chile, it becomes necessary to fully understand the determinants of the demand of electricity for household use-price elasticity in particular-in order to reduce possible energy deficits through flexible pricing mechanisms. This paper estimates the demand for residential electricity using data from the National Survey of Socioeconomic Characterization (CASEN) 2006, being innovative over previous studies by using disaggregated data per household. The results are consistent with other publications, showing a price elasticity between -0.38 and -0.40 for residential consumption, cross-elasticity between 0.14 and 0.16 with respect to the price of liquefied gas, and an income elasticity of between 0.11 and 0.12, depending on whether it was evaluated on the median or mean of the independent variables.

Mostramos que implica tari{\ldots}car a costo medio de largo plazo, lo {\'{o}}ptimo cuando la empresa se debe auto{\ldots}nanciar; esto no ocurre con la regulaci{\'{o}}n por tasa de retorno y el price cap. M{\'{a}}s a{\'{u}}n, el per{\'{i}}odo {\ldots}jo y ex{\'{o}}geno entre {\ldots}jaciones de tarifas estimula la e{\ldots}ciencia productiva tal como el price cap. Sin embargo, las f{\'{o}}rmulas que se usan para {\ldots}jar tarifas y los procedimientos que se siguen suponen que el regulador tiene informaci{\'{o}}n su{\ldots}cientemente precisa para determinar los costos de la empresa e{\ldots}ciente sin necesidad de usar informaci{\'{o}}n de la empresa real. Tanto la teor{\'{i}}a moderna de la regulaci{\'{o}}n como la pr{\'{a}}ctica muestran, por contraste, que los precios no se pueden {\ldots}jar sin usar informaci{\'{o}}n que s{\'{o}}lo tiene la empresa real.

Nuestra conclusi{\'{o}}n es que price cap tambi{\'{e}}n requiere amplia informaci{\'{o}}n de la empresa real.

Ministerio de Econom{\'{i}}a. Sin embargo, las opiniones vertidas en este documento son de exclusiva
responsabilidad de sus autores. Agradecemos los comentarios de Juan Pablo Montero y dem{\'{a}}s participantes en el Seminario Jornadas de
Investigaci{\'{o}}n de Facultad de Ciencias Econ{\'{o}}micas y Administrativas de la Pontificia Universidad Cat{\'{o}}lica de
Chile. Agradezco tambi{\'{e}}n a Jos{\'{e}} Tom{\'{a}}s Morel por sus diversos comentarios y sugerencias a trav{\'{e}}s del desarrollo de este trabajo y en forma muy especial a Gert Wagner y a Felipe Zurita por sus valiosas sugerencias respecto a como aproximarse al an{\'{a}}lisis de estos problemas. 2 I. INTRODUCCI{\'{O}}N La regulaci{\'{o}}n en mercados que presentan caracter{\'{i}}sticas de monopolio natural debiera idealmente cumplir con los objetivos de: inducir a las empresas a operar de manera eficiente tanto desde el punto de vista asignativo (producir la cantidad eficiente), como productivo (producir al m{\'{i}}nimo costo), y permitirle a la empresa que pueda autofinanciarse 2 . Desde 1989, el esquema de regulaci{\'{o}}n utilizado en Chile para fijar las tarifas en los sectores de distribuci{\'{o}}n el{\'{e}}ctrica, telecomunicaciones y sanitarias ha sido el de empresa modelo. Este esquema busca " emular " la competencia en los mercados en que existen monopolios naturales. Para ello utiliza el criterio de tarificaci{\'{o}}n a costo marginal con lo que se busca alcanzar la eficiencia asignativa. Adicionalmente se impone la condici{\'{o}}n de que la firma se autofinancie 3 . En el proceso de fijaci{\'{o}}n tarifaria se utiliza una empresa de referencia hipot{\'{e}}tica eficiente que comienza sus operaciones en ese momento. A diferencia de los esquemas de " yardstick " utilizados en el Reino Unido, en los que se utiliza como referencia el comportamiento (promedio o el m{\'{a}}s eficiente) de otras firmas que operan en el mismo sector, en el esquema chileno, la tarificaci{\'{o}}n es en base a una empresa simulada. 4 Esta empresa simulada produce la cantidad demandada por el mercado al m{\'{i}}nimo costo t{\'{e}}cnicamente posible, con niveles de calidad predefinidos. Lo que se busca es desvincular los costos en base a los cuales se tarifica, de los costos de la empresa real de forma tal que esta podr{\'{a}} obtener una rentabilidad normal s{\'{o}}lo si es capaz de emular a la empresa eficiente y los costos de cualquier ineficiencia no podr{\'{a}} ser traspasada a la tarifa, y por ende a los consumidores, y deber{\'{a}} ser asumida por los due{\~{n}}os de la empresa. En este sentido, el mecanismo busca ofrecer las ventajas de un mecanismo de regulaci{\'{o}}n por incentivos, manteniendo ciertas caracter{\'{i}}sticas de la regulaci{\'{o}}n por tasa de retorno (Newbery (1999)). Bajo el esquema de empresa modelo, las tarifas de los servicios regulados deben fijarse de manera que " la empresa modelo " que inicia sus operaciones al momento de la fijaci{\'{o}}n 2 La optimalidad sujeta a la restricci{\'{o}}n de autofinanciamiento se llama en la literatura " Regla de Ramsey " . 3 Si hay econom{\'{i}}as de escala entonces la tarifas se ajustan para igualarlas al costo medio, lo que es consistente con el {\'{o}}ptimo de Ramsey. 4 Ver Vogelsang (2002), pag. 9 y Newbery (1999), pags 163-164.},

A range of comparative performance and cost indicators for a variety of BRT systems based on literature review and direct data collection are presented in Sections 3.2 and 3.3. BRT performance and costs are compared with those of metros and light rail. Section 4 then summarizes a range of mobility, environmental, public health and urban development impacts that can be expected of BRT systems, informed by extensive literature review supplemented by additional EMBARQ data collection and analysis. The cost-benefit analysis methodology EMBARQ employs to analyze four case studies is presented in Section 5. High-quality bus rapid transit systems, like all good urban transport, can impact the quality of life, productivity, health, and safety of people living in cities. These impacts have been explored in varying depth in the existing research in the form of travel time * Busway / BRT year commenced benefits, environmental impacts, public health and safety benefits, and urban development changes. A brief summary of the current research regarding these categories of benefits is provided in Section 1.4. This report features four case studies that use available data to estimate the net benefit to society from a bus rapid transit project: • TransMilenio, Bogota, Colombia; • Metrob{\'{u}}s, Mexico City, Mexico; • Rea Vaya, Johannesburg, South Africa; • Metrob{\"{u}}s, Istanbul, Turkey.},

This paper quantifies land value uplift and its spatial distribution for accessibility to different destinations for residential properties around a new-build Liverpool Parramatta transitway for buses in a suburban area of south-west Sydney, Australia. Geographically weighted regression (GWR) is used to take account of spatial dependency in the estimation process with the results being presented in map form. Results indicate that property prices are mainly determined by the property's internal features and the neighbourhood effects, but accessibility by car and accessibility to employment along the transitway also contribute non- marginally. The GWR local model shows that accessibility varies significantly over geographical space demonstrating the advantages of this approach.},

abstract = {The value of road safety is the fundamental input in social cost–benefit analysis of road safety schemes. It is also an increasingly important input in the social evaluation of almost any transport infrastructure project. This value is given by the amount that people are willing to pay for reducing the risk of a becoming a fatal victim or of suffering a serious injury. Traditionally, road safety willingness-to-pay has been estimated by means of contingent valuation and other surveys without making explicit reference to a particular travel demand context. The paper advocates the use of stated choice techniques that allow one to recreate the context of a particular trip customized to the respondent's past experience. For this and other reasons, it is argued that the proposed method is clearly superior to previous methods for estimating people's willingness-to-pay for improved road safety.

With a reinvestigation on the relationships and homogeneity between different modelling approaches, it explores the representative veins of the models, and thereby extends a new perspective to the existing reviews under a historical context. Meanwhile, both advantages and disadvantages of these methods are presented.

@article{Cepeda2006,
abstract = {This paper concerns a frequency-based route choice model for congested transit networks, which takes into account the consequences of congestion on the predicted flows as well as on the expected waiting and travel times. The paper builds on the results presented in Correa [Correa, J., 1999. Asignaci??n de flujos de pasajeros en redes de transporte p??blico congestionadas. Engineering thesis, U. de Chile, Santiago] and Cominetti and Correa [Cominetti, R., Correa, J., 2001. Common-lines and passenger assignment in congested transit networks. Transportation Science 35(3), 250-267], extending these to obtain a new characterization of the equilibria which allows us to formulate an equivalent optimization problem in terms of a computable gap function that vanishes at equilibrium. This new model formulation can deal with flow dependent travel times and is a generalization of the previously known strategy (hyperpath) based transit network equilibrium models. The approach leads to an algorithm which has been applied successfully on large scale networks. Computational results for transit networks originating from practice demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach. ?? 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {One of the most common motivations for public transport investments is to reduce congestion and increase capacity. Public transport congestion leads to crowding discomfort, denied boardings and lower service reliability. However, transit assignment models and appraisal methodologies usually do not account for the dynamics of public transport congestion and crowding and thus potentially underestimate the related benefits. This study develops a method to capture the benefits of increased capacity by using a dynamic and stochastic transit assignment model. Using an agent-based public transport simulation model, we dynamically model the evolution of network reliability and on-board crowding. The model is embedded in a comprehensive framework for project appraisal.A case study of a metro extension that partially replaces an overloaded bus network in Stockholm demonstrates that congestion effects may account for a substantial share of the expected benefits. A cost-benefit analysis based on a conventional static model will miss more than a third of the benefits. This suggests that failure to represent dynamic congestion effects may substantially underestimate the benefits of projects, especially if they are primarily intended to increase capacity rather than to reduce travel times.},

abstract = {Transit passengers' response to crowded conditions has been studied empirically, yet is limitedly included in transport models currently used in the design of policy and infrastructure investments. This has consequences for the practical applicability of these models in studies on, for instance, timetabling, train capacity management strategies, project appraisal, and passenger satisfaction. Here we propose four methods to include the effect of crowding, based on existing studies on passengers' perception and response as well as often-used crowding indicators. These four alternative methods are implemented in the train passenger assignment procedure of the Dutch national transport model, and evaluated with respect to their impacts on the model results for the Dutch railway network. The four methods relate to four different ways in which an additive trip penalty and/or time-multiplier can be incorporated in the train utility function for different travel purposes, to capture the disutility of crowding as measured by the load factor. The analyses of the test case favor the hybrid method using both a boarding penalty (capturing seat availability upon boarding) and a time-multiplier (capturing physical comfort and safety throughout the trip). This method produces consistent results, while the additional computational effort that it imposes is acceptable. Further empirical underpinning is needed to conclusively show which of these methods best captures passengers' response behavior quantitatively (for different travel purposes and conditions). ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

The most important data sources are travel time and traffic flow measurements made in the year before the charges were introduced (during April 2005) and during the first spring with the charges (during April 2006, 4 months after the charges were introduced). Using matrix calibration, effects on the non-observed link flows and travel times are extrapolated, enabling us to calculate the social value of changes in travel times and travel costs. Impacts on traffic safety and emissions are calculated using standard Swedish CBA relationships. The system is shown to yield a significant social surplus, well enough to cover both investment and operating costs, provided that it is kept for a reasonable lifetime: investment and startup costs are "recovered" in terms of social benefits in around 4 years. {\textcopyright} 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {In a large-scale, real-life peak avoidance experiment, we asked participants to provide estimates of their average in-vehicle travel time during their morning commute. After comparing the reported travel times with the actual corresponding travel times, we found that the average travel times were overstated by a factor of 1.5. We showed that driver- and link-specific characteristics partially explained these exaggerations. Using the stated and revealed preference data, we investigated whether the driver-specific reporting errors were consistent with the drivers' scheduling behaviors in reality and in hypothetical choice experiments. In both cases, we found no robust evidence that drivers behave as if they misperceive travel times to a similar extent as those they misreported, thereby implying that the reported travel times did not represent the actual or perceived travel times in a truthful manner. The results of this study suggest that caution should be recommended when reported travel time data are used in an uncritical manner during transport research and when determining policy.},

abstract = {Unreliable travel times cause substantial costs to travelers. Nevertheless, they are often not taken into account in cost-benefit analyses (CBA), or only in very rough ways. This paper aims at providing simple rules to predict variability, based on travel time data from Dutch highways. Two different concepts of travel time variability are used, which differ in their assumptions on information availability to drivers. The first measure is based on the assumption that, for a given road link and given time of day, the expected travel time is constant across all working days (rough information: RI). In the second case, expected travel times are assumed to reflect day-specific factors such as weather conditions or weekdays (fine information: FI). For both definitions of variability, we find that the mean travel time is a good predictor. On average, longer delays are associated with higher variability. However, the derivative of variability with respect to delays is decreasing in delays. It can be shown that this result relates to differences in the relative shares of observed traffic 'regimes' (free-flow, congested, hyper-congested) in the mean delay. For most CBAs, no information on the relative shares of the traffic regimes is available. A non-linear model based on mean travel times can then be used as an approximation. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

@article{DeJong2015,
abstract = {In many countries, decision-making on proposals for national or regional infrastructure projects in passenger and freight transport includes carrying out a cost-benefit analysis for these projects. Reductions in travel times are usually a key benefit. However, if a project also reduces the variability of travel time, travellers, freight operators and shippers will enjoy additional benefits, the 'reliability benefits'. Until now, these benefits are usually not included in the cost-benefit analysis. To include reliability of travel or transport time in the cost-benefit analysis of infrastructure projects not only monetary values of reliability, but also reliability forecasting models are needed. As a result of an extensive feasibility study carried out for the German Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development this paper aims to provide a literature overview and outcomes of an expert panel on how best to calculate and monetise reliability benefits, synthesised into recommendations for implementing travel time reliability into existing transport models in the short, medium, and long term. The paper focuses on road transport, which has also been the topic for most of the available literature on modelling and valuing transport time reliability.},

In the Netherlands and many other countries, service reliability is not explicitly incorporated in cost benefit analyses, although improved service reliability is often one of the main contributions of public transport projects. In an actual case, the replacement of a bus line by a tram line in Utrecht, in The Netherlands, we proved that our framework is valuable and can be applied into practice. By calculating the benefits of the improved service reliability of the proposed tram line, which were about 2/3 of all benefits, the cost benefit ratio was positive, which convinced the Dutch Minister of Infrastructure and Environment to support the project by €110 million.},

abstract = {A modelling approach for solving quite general network equilibrium prob-lems (with fixed trip productions and attractions) intrinsic to the urban transport plan-ning process is presented. The framework can consider a variety of demand models and route choice behaviours within the same implementation, including multiple user classes and combined travel modes that interact on the same physical network. The demand choices are assumed to have a hierarchical structure. When trip distribution is variable, a doubly constrained entropy-maximizing model is considered at the first level of choice and a hierarchical logit model is used for the remaining demand choices (time of departure, travel mode, transfer point for combined modes, etc.). If trip distribution is considered to be exogenous, the demand choices are modelled as a hierarchical logit. One of the main features of the model is that it considers the effects of congestion on the road network as well as congestion and capacity constraints effects in each public transport service network. The problem is formulated mathematically as a variational inequality, with asymmetric cost functions, and solved following the diagonalization procedure. Each iter-ation of the aforementioned procedure solves an optimization problem using the Evans algorithm. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the diagonalized problem are obtained. The main results of a simple example (solved with an academic version of the proposed algorithm) are presented to show the consistency of the equilibrium flows and levels of services obtained using the model. Finally, a real scale implementation of the model is briefly described to show the feasibility of its application.},

We show that with congestion interdependence, as when automobiles and buses contribute to one another's congestion, the second-best peak solution can warrant an urban but transit fare below average cost, calling for a subsidy. And under a first-best peak solution, involving both an inputs tax and a transit fare adjustment, we show a companion second-best off-peak transit fare that will mitigate the (then inappropriate but still effective) inputs tax.},

abstract = {In Chile, as in most less-developed nations, if life savings are valued at all the human capital approach is used in a rather non-consistent fashion. As part of a 5-year research project on the value of transport externalities, a stated preference (SP) experiment was carried out in order to assess the value of a statistical life for Chilean interurban motorways. Interviewees had to choose among different routes for a hypothetical trip, based on the following attributes: travel time, toll charge and level of risk. The results of our experiment show that people were sensitive to the risk variable, thus "stating" a preference for safer routes. Several models were estimated with linear and non-linear utility specifications, and also incorporating the effects of socio-economic variables in a novel and interesting fashion. We were able to estimate subjective values of time consistent with previous values obtained in the country and reasonably looking values (in comparison to Chilean prices and foreign experience) of a statistical life. The paper discusses the experimental design, data collection and analysis, with emphasis on the role of lexicographic individuals that are a feature of SP studies that has not been carefully explored in the literature. We also present our modelling results and compare our derived values (of time and of a statistical life) with values found previously and/or elsewhere. ?? 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

abstract = {Although noise levels in urban areas frequently surpass the designated norms the consequences on health are only beginning to be examined. A stated preference experiment is used to estimate the willingness-to-pay for reducing noise levels in a group-based residential location context. The experiment considers variations in travel time to work, monthly house rent, sun orientation of the dwelling and subjective noise level inside it; objective noise levels are also measured after the experiment. Multinomial and mixed logit models are estimated based on a consistent microeconomic framework, including non-linear utility functions and allowing for various stratifications of the data. The more flexible models allow for the treatment of repeated observations problem common to stated preference data and provide a better fit to the data, although willingness-to-pay results remain almost invariant. Subjective values of time derived from these models are consistent with previous values obtained in the country, giving support to the experimental design and quality of the sample. ?? 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {Trip departure time has become a more important theme in practice as urban congestion problems are increasingly addressed by travel demand management (TDM) strategies. In this paper we formulate and estimate a joint mode-departure time choice model using combining revealed preference (RP) and stated choice (SC) data about commuting trips in Santiago. The information was gathered through a series of surveys (RP, SC and attitudinal survey) applied to some 500 commuters in the Santiago Metropolitan Area. The travel time, cost and cost divided by wage rate coefficients were fairly similar in both environments (RP and SC), while schedule delay (SD) penalties associated with early or late arrival to work differed between each data. The goodness of fit of the models decreased when higher time resolutions (i.e. length of departure time intervals) were considered. A simple forecasting exercise allowed us to find that the SD coefficients derived from the SC context produced a smoother temporal distribution of travel demand than the RP parameters; some implications regarding policy design were also obtained: for example, to achieve significant changes in traveller's time of day and mode choice, authorities should first encourage companies to allow for more flexible work arrival and departure times, and should also invest on improving the public transport system with revenues derived from the congestion charging scheme.},

The results of DCEs depend on the particular experimental design for the identification of the key parameters of interest and the statistical efficiency with which those parameters are estimated. Work on experimental designs for DCEs has almost always assumed that the particular design one uses does not influence the nature of the responses to the choice tasks other than via the precision with which parameters are estimated. We examine this assumption by testing whether particular experimental designs influence the probability that a separating hyperplane exists that perfectly predicts the observed choices at the individual level in four DCE datasets. Our empirical results suggest that the particular statistical design used can influence the nature of the choice responses obtained.},

abstract = {Megacities around the world are highly concerned about the impacts of urban transportation. The rapid urbanization and motorization in megacities have a direct impact on sustainable development. Hence, it is very frequently to find the multiple actors from both private and public sectors involved in the design and operation of urban passenger transportation systems to make decisions that seek at optimizing their own particular objectives. However, urban passenger transport system is a very complex task involving multiple criteria related to economic, environmental and socio-political issues. Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques actually aid the decision making process by assessing such problems. This paper presents a review of research papers published between 1982 and 2014 (up to May) concerning MCDM for the design and operation of urban passenger transport systems. From the analysis over more than 30 years, the current paper highlights the importance of taking into account the multiplicity of actors and their own decision criteria, as well as the resolution technique. Finally, some suggestions for future research are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]},

Previous studies have mainly concentrated on travel time and cost attributes, while evidence regarding road safety attributes is very limited. This paper investigates the implicit utility of a road safety attribute, defined as the number of casualties per year in alternative car trip choices, when safety improves or deteriorates. Using appropriate statistical tests we are able to reject symmetric preferences for losses and gains in the level of safety and estimate a sigmoid value function that exhibits loss aversion and diminishing sensitivity. This adds an interesting psychological dimension to the preference of road safety. Possible implications of this finding for policy making are discussed.},

A plausible peak spreading strategy is to increase peak fare and/or to reduce off-peak fare. This paper reviews relevant empirical studies for urban rail systems, as rail transit plays a key role in Australian urban passenger transport and experiences severe peak loading variability. The literature is categorised into four groups: a) passenger opinions on willingness to change time for travel, b) valuations of displacement time using stated preference technique, c) simulations of peak spreading based on trip scheduling models, and d) real-world cases of peak spreading using differential fare. Policy prescription is advised to take into account impacts of traveller " s time flexibility and joint effects of mode shifting and peak spreading. Although focusing on urban rail, arguments in this paper are relevant to public transport in general with values to researchers and practitioners.},

The analysis favours a model with random WTP as the only source of randomness over a model with fixed WTP which is linear in time and cost and has an additive random error term. Results further indicate that the distribution of log WTP can be described as a sum of a linear index fixing the location of the log WTP distribution and an independent random variable representing unobserved heterogeneity. This formulation is useful for parametric modelling. The index indicates that the WTP varies systematically with income and other individual characteristics. The WTP varies also with the time difference presented in the experiment which is in contradiction of standard utility theory. ?? 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {Quite apart from political motivations, high congestion in the BRT system (Transmilenio) in Bogota, particularly during peak hours, persuaded the transport authority in August 2012 to change the fare system in order to reduce the peak-load problem through price discrimination. Transmilenio had always applied a flat fare: before August 2012, it was around COP 1,750 (U{\$} 0.98 in 2012). After 1 August, fares changed to COP 1,700 in peak hours and to COP 1,400 in off-peak hours. This paper studies how the lower fare encouraged users to shift trips between peak and off-peak periods in Bogota, and analyses whether this pricing policy was successful or not. In order to estimate the variation in the relative demand distribution between the peak and the off-peak hours, we used information pertaining to a working day. Our main data source was the number of entrances and exits for Transmilenio stations between 2009 and 2012. The data before the intervention were for the months between 2009 and 2011. The data after the intervention dated from August to October 2012. In what follows we assumed that users' observable characteristics did not change before or after the intervention was carried out. A regression model was built, which included as dependent variable the ratio between the number of entrances to Transmilenio stations in peak hours and the number of entrances in off-peak hours on the same day. This model assessed the effect of the fare reduction on the described ratio. The general effect found was a decline of the ratio after the measure was applied. However, a gradual effect was also observed which was correlated with the income level of the zone where the Transmilenio stations were located. Income levels were obtained from the socioeconomic data of a 2011 mobility survey, and were associated with the spatial localisation of some stations. It was observed that the change in the ratio was higher in low-income zones than in high-income zones. This explains the variations between the trends of the peak/off-peak ratio: the significant decrease of 20{\%} between 2011 and 2012 for low-income zones and 10{\%} reduction for medium-income and higher-income zones.},

Peak toll rates are effective on weekdays from 6-9 AM and 4-7 PM, as well as on weekends from Noon to 8 PM. These crossings carry average daily eastbound traffic of 352,000 vehicles, or more than 126 million eastbound vehicles in 2004. This is, by far, the largest application of road pricing in the United States. Following the implementation of the new pricing structure, the Federal Highway Administration decided to sponsor a multi-year research project aimed at studying the behavioral impacts produced by the time of day pricing initiative. The research project focuses on three main areas: user impacts, traffic impacts, and institutional analyses. This paper discusses the key findings pertaining to the impacts produced by the time of day pricing initiative on the behavior of both passenger and commercial vehicle traffic. It was found that 7.4{\%} of passenger trips and 19.3{\%} of truck trips (20.2{\%} if increasing shipping charges are included) changed behavior due to the time of day pricing initiative.},

By using a tour-based modeling framework and highly detailed land use and travel data, this study attempts to add detail on the specific land use changes necessary to address different types of travel, and to develop a comparative framework by which the relative impact of travel time and urban form changes can be assessed. A discrete choice modeling framework adjusted for demographic factors and assessed the relative effect of travel time, costs, and urban form on mode choice and trip chaining characteristics for the three tour types. The tour based modeling approach increased the ability to understand the relative contribution of urban form, time, and costs in explaining mode choice and tour complexity for home and work related travel. Urban form at residential and employment locations, and travel time and cost were significant predictors of travel choice. Travel time was the strongest predictor of mode choice while urban form the strongest predictor of the number of stops within a tour. Results show that reductions in highway travel time are associated with less transit use and walking. Land use patterns where respondents work predicted mode choice for mid day and journey to work travel.},

abstract = {Modelling the temporal response of travellers to transport policy interventions has rapidly emerged as a major issue in many practical transport planning studies and is recognised to hold particular challenges. The importance of congestion and its variation over the day, together with the emergence of time-dependent road user charging as a policy tool, emphasise the need to understand whether and how travellers will change the timing of their journeys. For practical planning studies, analysts face a major issue of relating temporal changes to other behavioural changes that are likely to result from policy or exogenous changes. In particular, the relative sensitivity of time and mode switching has been difficult to resolve. This paper describes a study undertaken to determine the relative sensitivity of mode and time of day choice to changes in travel times and costs and to investigate whether evidence exists of varying magnitudes of unobservable influences in time of day switching. The study draws on data from three related stated preference studies undertaken over the past decade in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands and uses error components logit models to investigate the patterns of substitution between mode and time of day alternatives. It is concluded that the magnitude of unobserved influences on time switching depends significantly on the magnitudes of the time switches considered. With time periods of the magnitude generally represented in practical modelling, i.e. peak periods of 2-3 hours, time switching is generally more sensitive in this data than mode switching. However, the context of the modelling and the extent to which relevant variables can be measured will strongly influence these results.},

@article{Hess2007,
abstract = {A substantial amount of research is presently being carried out to understand the complexities involved in modelling the choice of departure time and mode of travel. Many of these models tend to be far too complex and far too data intensive to be of use for application in large scale model forecasting systems, where socio-economic detail is limited and detailed scheduling information is rarely available in the model implementation structure. Therefore, these models generally work on the basis of a set of mutually exclusive time periods, rather than making use of continuous departure time information. Two important questions need to be addressed in the use of such models, namely the specification used for the time periods (in terms of length), and the ordering of the levels of nesting, representing the difference in the sensitivities to shifts in departure time and changes in the mode of travel. This paper aims to provide some answers to these two questions on the basis of an extensive analysis making use of three separate Stated Preference (SP) datasets, collected in the United Kingdom and in the Netherlands. In the analysis, it has proved possible to develop models which allow reasonably sound predictions to be made of these choices. With a few exceptions, the results show higher substitution between alternative time periods than between alternative modes. Furthermore, the results show that the degree of substitution between time periods is reduced when making use of a more coarse specification of the time periods. These results are intended for use by practitioners, and form an important part of the evidence base supporting the UK Department for Transport's advice for practical UK studies in the WebTAG system.},

The results of DCEs depend on the particular experimental design for the identification of the key parameters of interest and the statistical efficiency with which those parameters are estimated. Work on experimental designs for DCEs has almost always assumed that the particular design one uses does not influence the nature of the responses to the choice tasks other than via the precision with which parameters are estimated. We examine this assumption by testing whether particular experimental designs influence the probability that a separating hyperplane exists that perfectly predicts the observed choices at the individual level in four DCE datasets. Our empirical results suggest that the particular statistical design used can influence the nature of the choice responses obtained.},

abstract = {The growing pressure on urban passenger transport systems has increased the demand for new and innovative solutions to increase its efficiency. One approach to tackle this challenge has been the slow but steady shift towards shared mobility services (car-, bike-sharing etc.). Building on these new modes and the developments in information and communication technologies, the concept of “Mobility as a Service” (MaaS) has recently come to light and offers convenient door-to-door transport without the need to own a private vehicle. The term Mobility as a Service (MaaS) stands for buying mobility services based on consumer needs instead of buying the means of mobility. In recent years, various MaaS schemes have been arisen around the world. The objective of this paper is to review these newly existing mobility services and develop an index to evaluate the level of mobility integration for each based on the assumption that higher level of integration is more appealing to travellers. The review presented in this paper allows a comparison among the schemes and provides the background and the key points of MaaS systems that the research community could use for designing surveys. It also provides significant insights to transport operators and authorities on the elements they should take into account to apply an attractive MaaS scheme that could effectively shift demand away from private vehicles.},

The aim of this special feature is to provide theoretical analysis and empirical evidence to caution against the tendency, when confronted with pervasive uncertainty, to believe that scholars can generate simple models of linked social– ecological systems and deduce general solutions to the overuse of resources. Practitioners and scholars who fall into panacea traps falsely assume that all problems of resource governance can be represented by a small set of simple models, because they falsely perceive that the preferences and perceptions of most resource users are the same. Readers of this special feature will become acquainted with many cases in which panaceas fail. The articles provide an excellent overview of why they fail. Furthermore, the articles in this special feature address how scholars and public officials can increase the prospects for future sustainable resource use by facilitating a diagnostic approach in selecting appropriate starting points for governance and monitoring, as well as by learning from the outcomes of new policies and adapting in light of effective feedback. resources ͉ social– ecological systems ͉ sustainability},

abstract = {Subsequent chapters in this volume deal with populations as dynamic entities in time and space. Populations are, of course, made up of individuals, and the parameters which characterize aggregate behavior—population growth rate and so on— ultimately derive from the behavioral ecology and life-history strategies of these constituent indivi-duals. In evolutionary terms, the properties of populations can only be understood in terms of individuals, which comes down to studying how life-history choices (and consequent gene-frequency distributions) are shaped by environ-mental forces. Many important aspects of group behavior— from alarm calls of birds and mammals to the complex institutions that have enabled human societies to flourish—pose problems of how coopera-tive behavior can evolve and be maintained. The puzzle was emphasized by Darwin, and remains the subject of active research today. In this book, we leave the large subject of indi-vidual organisms' behavioral ecology and life-history choices to texts in that field (e.g. Krebs and Davies, 1997). Instead, we lead with a survey of work, much of it very recent, on five different kinds of mechanism whereby cooperative behavior may be maintained in a population, despite the inherent difficulty that cheats may prosper by enjoying the benefits of cooperation without pay-ing the associated costs. Cooperation means that a donor pays a cost, c, for a recipient to get a benefit, b. In evolutionary biology, cost and benefit are measured in terms of fitness. While mutation and selection represent the main forces of evolutionary dynamics, cooperation is a fundamental principle that is required for every level of biological organization. Individual cells rely on cooperation among their components. Multicellular organisms exist because of coopera-tion among their cells. Social insects are masters of cooperation. Most aspects of human society are based on mechanisms that promote cooperation. Whenever evolution constructs something entirely new (such as multicellularity or human language), cooperation is needed. Evolutionary construction is based on cooperation. The five rules for cooperation which we examine in this chapter are: kin selection, direct reciprocity, indirect reciprocity, graph selection, and group selection. Each of these can promote cooperation if specific conditions are fulfilled.},

abstract = {Understanding the dynamics of boarding/alighting activities and its impact on bus dwell times is crucial to improving bus service levels. However, research is limited as conventional data collection methods are both time and labour intensive. In this paper, we present the first use of smart card data to study passenger boarding/alighting behaviour and its impact on bus dwell time. Given the nature of these data, we focus on passenger activity time and do not account for the time necessary to open and close doors. We study single decker, double decker and articulated buses and identify the specific effects of floor/entrance type, number of activities and occupancy on both boarding and alighting dynamics. A linear relationship between average boarding and alighting times and their respective standard deviations is also found, whereas the variability of boarding and alighting time decreases with the number of passengers boarding and alighting. After observing the cumulative boarding/alighting processes under different occupancy conditions, we propose a new model to estimate passenger activity time, by introducing critical occupancy - a parameter incorporating the friction between boarding/alighting and on-board passengers. We conduct regression analyses with the proposed and another popular model for simultaneous boarding/alighting processes, finding that the critical occupancy plays a significant role in determining the regime of boarding and alighting processes and the overall activity time. Our results provide potential implications for practice and policy, such as identifying optimal vehicle type for a particular route and modelling transit service reliability.},

Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

In the public transport setting, such contributions have, with rare exception, not been considered. In this paper, we discuss and empirically illustrate the merits of advanced modelling developments aimed at improving our understanding of public transport choice, namely the inclusion of reliability in extended expected utility theoretic forms, to recognize risk attitude and perceptual conditioning, the consideration of passenger crowding and its inclusion in linear additive models, and the role of multiple heuristics in representing attribute processing as a way of conditioning modal choice. We illustrate the mechanics of introducing these behaviourally appealing extensions using a modal choice data set collected in Sydney.},

abstract = {Microeconomic optimisation of scheduled public transport operations has traditionally focused on finding optimal values for the frequency of service, capacity of vehicles, number of lines and distance between stops. In addition, however, there exist other elements in the system that present a trade-off between the interests of users and operators that have not received attention in the literature, such as the optimal selection of a fare payment system and a designed running speed (i.e., the cruising speed that buses maintain in between two consecutive stops). Alternative fare payment methods (e.g., on-board and off-board, payment by cash, magnetic strip or smart card) have different boarding times and capital costs, with the more efficient systems such as a contactless smart card imposing higher amounts of capital investment. Based on empirical data from several Bus Rapid Transit systems around the world, we also find that there is a positive relationship between infrastructure cost per kilometre and commercial speed (including stops), achieved by the buses, which we further postulate as a linear relationship between infrastructure investment and running speed. Given this context, we develop a microeconomic model for the operation of a bus corridor that minimises total cost (users and operator) and has five decision variables: frequency, capacity of vehicles, station spacing, fare payment system and running speed, thus extending the traditional framework. Congestion, induced by bus frequency, plays an important role in the design of the system, as queues develop behind high demand bus stops when the frequency is high. We show that (i) an off-board fare payment system is the most cost effective in the majority of circumstances; (ii) bus congestion results in decreased frequency while fare and bus capacity increase, and (iii) the optimal running speed grows with the logarithm of demand. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

We identify variables that have a significant influence on the variation of bus travel time, and estimate the percentage of time that buses take at each stage of a trip (i.e., non-stop running time, delay due to traffic lights, delay due to roundabouts and time lost at bus stops), which is useful to categorise the sources of delay along a route. By using estimates of passenger boarding times with alternative fare payment methods (cash, magnetic strip, contactless card and off-board payment), we calculate operational speed and benefits of upgrading the fare payment technology, including savings on fleet size requirements, fuel and labour cost, travel time for users and air pollution. A comparative assessment of speed gains with two policies aimed at reducing bus travel times - providing dedicated busways and upgrading the fare collection system - shows that the number of passengers is crucial in determining the advantage of one or the other in increasing bus operating speed. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

This paper examines the multiple dimensions of passenger crowding related to public transport demand, supply and operations, including effects on operating speed, waiting time, travel time reliability, passengers' wellbeing, valuation of waiting and in-vehicle time savings, route and bus choice, and optimal levels of frequency, vehicle size and fare. Secondly, crowding externalities are estimated for rail and bus services in Sydney, in order to show the impact of crowding on the estimated value of in-vehicle time savings and demand prediction. Using Multinomial Logit (MNL) and Error Components (EC) models, we show that alternative assumptions concerning the threshold load factor that triggers a crowding externality effect do have an influence on the value of travel time (VTTS) for low occupancy levels (all passengers sitting); however, for high occupancy levels, alternative crowding models estimate similar VTTS. Importantly, if demand for a public transport service is estimated without explicit consideration of crowding as a source of disutility for passengers, demand will be overestimated if the service is designed to have a number of standees beyond a threshold, as analytically shown using a MNL choice model. More research is needed to explore if these findings hold with more complex choice models and in other contexts. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

In this paper we develop a model that combines short turning and deadheading in an integrated strategy for a single transit line, where the optimization variables are both of a continuous and discrete nature: frequencies within and outside the high demand zone, vehicle capacities, and those stations where the strategy begins and ends. We show that closed solutions can be obtained for frequencies in some cases, which resembles the classical "square root rule" Unlike the existing literature that compares different strategies with a given normal operation (no strategy - single frequency), we use an optimized base case, in order to assess the potential benefits of the integrated strategy on a fair basis. We found that the integrated strategy can be justified in many cases with mixed load patterns, where unbalances within and between directions are observed. In general, the short turning strategy may yield large benefits in terms of total cost reductions, while low benefits are associated with deadheading, due to the extra cost of running empty vehicles in some sections. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

In this paper, we use the observed behaviour of a subset of metro users in Singapore, who are willing to travel a longer time (into the opposite direction or backwards) to secure a seat for the actual trip in the direction towards their destination. We use smart card transactions to estimate the share of users who are willing to travel in the opposite direction during the first part of their trip and the average train occupancy per section to estimate differences in the valuation of travel time sitting and standing - translated into a standing multiplier or standing premium, which is analogous to the crowding multiplier that is usually found in the crowding valuation literature. We find that the standing multiplier is between 1.18 and 1.24 with the current crowding levels in the morning peak and can be as much as 1.55 with a density of 3 standing passengers per square metre. The results are compared to previous SC studies from other countries.

Car congestion and transit design are simultaneously introduced and consumers choose based on the full price they perceive. The optimization variables are the congestion toll, the transit fare (and hence the level of subsidies) and transit frequency. We obtain six main results: (i) the optimal car-transit split is generally different from the total cost minimizing one; (ii) optimal congestion and transit price are interdependent and have an optimal frequency attached; (iii) the optimal money price difference together with the optimal frequency yield the optimal modal split; (iv) if this modal split is used in traditional stand-alone formulations - where each mode is priced independently-resulting congestion tolls and transit subsidies and fares are consistent with the optimal money price difference; (v) self-financing of the transport sector is feasible; and (vi) investment in car infrastructure induces an increase in generalized cost for all public transport users. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Commercial bus speed is a key factor in the operation of public transport systems because it represents a direct measure of the quality of service provided to users and also considerably affects system costs. By commercial speed, we are referring to the average speed of buses over stretches, including all operational stops. Evaluating system performance by monitoring the commercial speed provided by bus services is highly desirable; however, in dense networks, it becomes a difficult task because of the amount of information required to implement such a monitoring procedure. The introduction of GPS technology in buses can overcome this difficulty in terms of information availability, although it presents the challenge of processing huge amounts of data in a systematic way. Here, we present a method based on GPS-generated data to systematically monitor average commercial bus speeds. The framework can be applied to each bus route as a whole, as well as over segments of arbitrary length, and can be divided into time intervals of arbitrary duration. The results are presented as matrices and graphs that can be read and interpreted easily. We discuss the potential of this methodology to provide useful insights for bus system planners and operators. The method and its applications are illustrated with data coming from the Santiago-Chile public transport system (Transantiago), where GPS observations of more than 6000 buses operating on over 700 different routes are available every 30. s. ?? 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {In this article, a hybrid predictive control (HPC) strategy is formulated for the real-time optimisation of a public transport system operation run using buses. For this problem, the hybrid predictive controller corresponds to the bus dispatcher, who dynamically provides the optimal control actions to the bus system to minimise users? total travel time (on-vehicle ride time plus waiting time at stops). The HPC framework includes a dynamic objective function and a predictive model of the bus system, written in discrete time, where events are triggered when a bus arrives at a bus stop. Upon these events, the HPC controller makes decisions based on two well-known real-time transit control actions, holding and expressing. Additionally, the uncertain passenger demand is included in the model as a disturbance and then predicted based on both offline and online information of passenger behaviour. The resulting optimisation problem of the HPC strategy at every event is Np-hard and needs an efficient algorithm to solve it in terms of computation time and accuracy. We chose an ad hoc implementation of a Genetic Algorithm that permits the proper management of the trade-off between these two aspects. For real-time implementation, the design of this HPC strategy considers newly available transport technology such as the availability of automatic passenger counters (APCs) and automatic vehicle location (AVL) devices. Illustrative simulations at 2, 5 and 10 steps ahead are conducted, and promising results showing the advantages of the real-time control schemes are reported and discussed.},

In this paper, public transport fare and headway are jointly optimised using an activity-based simulation framework. Unlike traditional analytical models that find single optimal values for headway, fare and other optimisation variables, we obtain a range of values for the optimal fare and headway, due to the randomness in user behaviour that is inherent to an agent-based approach. Waiting times and implications of an active bus capacity constraint are obtained on an agent-by-agent basis. The maximisation of operator profit or social welfare result in different combinations of the most likely optimal headway and fare. We show that the gap between welfare and profit optimal solutions is smaller when users can adjust their departure time according to their activities, timetabling and convenience of the public transport service.},

abstract = {The interplay between congestion and crowding externalities in the design of urban bus systems is identified and analysed. A multimodal social welfare maximisation model with spatially disaggregated demand is developed, in which users choose between travelling by bus, car or walking in a transport corridor. Optimisation variables are bus fare, congestion toll, bus frequency, bus size, fare collection system, bus boarding policy and the number of seats inside buses. We find that optimal bus frequency results from a trade-off between the level of congestion inside buses, i.e., passengers' crowding, and the level of congestion outside buses, i.e., the effect of frequency on slowing down both buses and cars in mixed-traffic roads. A numerical application shows that optimal frequency is quite sensitive to the assumptions on crowding costs, impact of buses on traffic congestion, and overall congestion level. If crowding matters to users, buses should have as many seats as possible, up to a minimum area that must be left free of seats. If for any other reason planners decide to have buses with fewer seats than optimal (e.g., to increase bus capacity), frequency should be increased to compensate for the discomfort imposed on public transport users. Finally, the consideration of crowding externalities (on both seating and standing) imposes a sizeable increase in the optimal bus fare, and consequently, a reduction of the optimal bus subsidy. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {A number of studies have shown that in addition to travel time and cost as the common influences on mode, route and departure time choices, travel time variability plays an increasingly important role, especially in the presence of traffic congestion on roads and crowding on public transport. The dominant focus of modelling and implementation of optimal pricing that incorporates trip time variability has been in the context of road pricing for cars. The main objective of this paper is to introduce a non-trivial extension to the existing literature on optimal pricing in a multimodal setting, building in the role of travel time variability as a source of disutility for car and bus users. We estimate the effect of variability in travel time and bus headway on optimal prices (i.e., tolls for cars and fares for buses) and optimal bus capacity (i.e., frequencies and size) accounting for crowding on buses, under a social welfare maximisation framework. Travel time variability is included by adopting the well-known mean–variance model, using an empirical relationship between the mean and standard deviation of travel times. We illustrate our model with an application to a highly congested corridor with cars, buses and walking as travel alternatives in Sydney, Australia. There are three main findings that have immediate policy implications: (i) including travel time variability results in higher optimal car tolls and substantial increases in toll revenue, while optimal bus fares remain almost unchanged; (ii) when bus headways are variable, the inclusion of travel time variability as a source of disutility for users yields higher optimal bus frequencies; and (iii) including both travel time variability and crowding discomfort leads to higher optimal bus sizes.},

abstract = {A hybrid predictive control formulation based on evolutionary multi-objective optimization to optimize real-time operations of public transport systems is presented. The state space model includes bus position, expected load and arrival time at stops. The system is based on discrete events, and the possible operator control actions are: holding vehicles at stations and skipping some stations. The controller (operator) pursues the minimization of a dynamic objective function to generate better operational decisions under uncertain demand at bus stops. In this work, a multi-objective approach is conducted to include different goals in the optimization process that could be opposite. In this case, the optimization was defined in terms of two objectives: waiting time minimization on one side, and impact of the strategies on the other. A genetic algorithm method is proposed to solve the multi-objective dynamic problem. From the conducted experiments considering a single bus line corridor, we found that the two objectives are opposite but with a certain degree of overlapping, in the sense that in all cases both objectives significantly improve the level of service with respect to the open-loop scenario by regularizing the headways. On average, the observed trade-off validates the proposed multi-objective methodology for the studied system, allowing dynamically finding the pseudo-optimal Pareto front and making real-time decisions based on different optimization criteria reflected in the proposed objective function compounds. ?? 2009 Elsevier Ltd.},

Both methodologies solve the same problem, the former based on a deterministic optimization over a long-term rolling horizon, while the latter proposes a hybrid predictive approach considering a shorter horizon and a stochastic evolution of the system. The comparison is conducted through scenarios that include three different dimensions: (i) bus capacities which can be reached or not, (ii) service frequencies, considering high and medium frequency services and (iii) different load profiles along the corridor. The results show that the deterministic approach performs better under scenarios where bus capacity could be reached frequently along the route while the hybrid predictive control approach performs better in situations where this does not happen. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {In the daily operation of a bus system, the movement of vehicles is affected by uncertain conditions as the day progresses, such as traffic congestion, unexpected delays, randomness in passenger demand, irregular vehicle dispatching times, and incidents. In a real-time setting, researchers have devoted significant effort to developing flexible control strategies, depending on the specific features of public transport systems. In this paper, we propose a control scheme for the operation of a bus system running along a linear corridor, based on expert rules and fuzzy logic. The parameters of the fuzzy controllers were tuned through a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. That is, the control strategies aim at keeping regular headways between consecutive buses, with the objective of reducing the total waiting time of passengers. The proposed control systems rely on measures of the position of each bus, which are easy to obtain and implement by means of emerging automatic vehicle location devices through Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. The utilized strategies are holding, stop-skipping, and the integration of both. After tuning the controller parameters, we conducted several simulation tests, obtaining promising results in terms of savings in waiting times with the implementation of the proposed rules, noting that the best performance occurred when fuzzy rules are included. The methodology has great impact, and it is easy to implement due to its simplicity.},

abstract = {We present a transit equilibrium model in which boarding decisions are stochastic. The model incorporates congestion, reflected in higher waiting times at bus stops and increasing in-vehicle travel time. The stochastic behavior of passengers is introduced through a probability for passengers to choose boarding a specific bus of a certain service. The modeling approach generates a stochastic common-lines problem, in which every line has a chance to be chosen by each passenger. The formulation is a generalization of deterministic transit assignment models where passengers are assumed to travel according to shortest hyperpaths. We prove existence of equilibrium in the simplified case of parallel lines (stochastic common-lines problem) and provide a formulation for a more general network problem (stochastic transit equilibrium). The resulting waiting time and network load expressions are validated through simulation. An algorithm to solve the general stochastic transit equilibrium is proposed and applied to a sample network; the algorithm works well and generates consistent results when considering the stochastic nature of the decisions, which motivates the implementation of the methodology on a real-size network case as the next step of this research. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

We compare resulting service levels, social welfare and consumer surplus for a number of different policies and find that: (i) dedicated bus lanes is a better stand-alone policy than transit subsidization or congestion pricing. The latter is marginally better than subsidization but has a negative impact in consumer surplus. (ii) Efficient transit subsidies are quite large since in many cases first-best transit price is negative; establishing dedicated bus lanes or implementing congestion pricing render subsidies unnecessary for high demand levels. (iii) Both subsidization and dedicated bus lanes would count with public support while congestion pricing would probably encounter opposition. (iv) Transit subsidies and/or congestion pricing do not induce large changes on optimal bus size, frequency, circulation speeds and spacing between stops in mixed-traffic conditions: dedicated bus lanes do. (v) In all cases analyzed, revenues from congestion pricing are enough to cover transit subsidies; the optimal percentage of capacity that should be devoted for bus traffic is around one third. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The maneuvering models of motorcycles in previous studies often considered motorcycles' traveling in terms of movements in a physical static lane and not in terms of dynamic virtual lane-based movements. For that reason, these models are not able to imitate motorcyclists' behavior well. This paper proposes a maneuverability model framework for motorcycles in queues at signalized intersections with considering the dynamic motorcycle's lane. The model includes (i) a dynamic motorcycle's lane to identify the current, left, and right lanes of the subject motorcycle, (ii) a threshold distance to determine when a motorcyclist starts to consider maneuvering, (iii) a lane selection model to identify the lane preferred by a motorcyclist, and (iv) a gap acceptance model to describe whether or not the lead and lag gaps are acceptable for maneuvering. The model framework captures the variation across the motorcyclist population and over time observations. The models were applied to Hanoi and Hochiminh city, Vietnam, based on microscopic data collected from video images. All of the parameters were estimated using the maximum likelihood method with the statistical estimation software GAUSS. The results show that 77.88{\%} of the observed maneuvers – either staying in the current lane or turning left or right – could be modeled correctly by the proposed models.},

abstract = {Recent experience with the design of bus services in Santiago, Chile, seems to confirm Jansson's (1980) assertion regarding observed planned bus frequency and size being too low and too large, respectively. We offer an explanation based upon the relation between cost coverage, pricing and optimal design variables. We recall that average social cost decreases with patronage, which generates an optimal monetary fare below the average operators' cost, inducing an optimal subsidy. Then we compare optimal frequency and bus size - those that minimize total social costs - with those that minimize operators' costs only. We show that an active constraint on operators' expenses is equivalent to diminish the value of users' time in the optimal design problem. Inserting this property back in the optimal pricing scheme, we conclude that a self-financial constraint, if active, always provokes an inferior solution, a smaller frequency and, under some circumstances, larger than optimal buses. {\textcopyright} Springer Science+Business Media, LLC. 2008.},

We compare this structure against three types of direct lines structures (no transfers) to serve a stylized public transport network where several flows converge into a main avenue, simultaneously optimizing fleet and vehicle sizes considering both users' and operators' costs. The best structure is shown to depend not only on the total passenger volume but also on demand imbalance, demand dispersion in the origins and the length of the trunk line. The region where the feeder-trunk structure dominates depends largely on the value assigned to the pure transfer penalty.},

abstract = {The use of micros!miilalion is not prevalent in modeling transit systems. The software available is rarely capable of modeling transit systems that route vehicles in real time or systems that adjust to the level of demand. It is not straightforward to model a transit system with the available simulation packages, especially when the transit scheme is not "standard." Even the simulation of basic schemes such as a streetcar system or a paratransit service is not an option in existing simulation software. A cursory study would reveal that simulation of any vehicle class other than personal automobiles is always developed as an afterthought in the existing large-scale microsimulation packages. In most cases, simulation developers have done only a superficial addition of transit simulation on top of detailed simulation of automobiles and control mechanisms on freeways and arterials. A microsimulation framework has been developed for a general transit system. Concrete applications of such a framework have been developed and are presented in this paper. Two different transit systems are modeled using the same general framework to show the flexibility of the simulation scheme: a bus rapid transit system and a large-scale real-time routed transit design. The intent is to describe the flexibility that can be brought into a properly designed microscopic simulation platform to model innovative transit system designs, especially in larger urban networks. A simulation scenario is presented in which both transit systems function. The details of both simulations are described along with the problems encountered, and ways to solve them are exposed.},

abstract = {Using a single line model, it has been shown recently that the presence of a stringent financial constraint induces a less than optimal bus frequency and larger than optimal bus size. This occurs because the constraint induces a reduction of the importance of users' costs (their time); in the extreme, users' costs disappear from the design problem. In this paper we show that such a constraint also has an impact on the spatial structure of transit lines. This is done departing from the single line model using an illustrative urban network that could be served either with direct services (no transfers) or with corridors (transfers are needed). First, the optimal structure of lines is investigated along with frequencies and vehicle sizes when the full costs for users and operators are minimized (unconstrained case); the optimal lines structure is shown to depend upon the patronage level, the values of time and the cost of providing bus capacity. Then the same problem is solved for the extreme case of a stringent financial constraint, in which case users' costs have relatively little or no effect in determining the solution; in this case the preferred outcome would be direct services under all circumstances, with lower frequencies and larger bus sizes. The impact of the financial constraint on the spatial structure of transit lines is shown to be caused by the reduction in cycle time under direct services; the introduction of users' costs in the objective function makes waiting times reverse this result under some circumstances.},

abstract = {A model to compare three alternative forms of public transport - light rail, heavy rail and bus rapid transit - is developed for an urban network with radial lines emanating from the borders to the city centre. The theoretical framework assumes an operation aimed at minimising the total cost associated with public transport service provision, which encompasses both operator and users costs. The decision variables are the number of lines (network density) and the frequency per period for each mode. This approach has no prejudices a priori in respect of whether a specified delivery scenario is aligned with existing modal reputation. Rather, we establish the conditions under which a specific transit mode should be preferred to another in terms of the operator (supply) and user (demand) side offerings. The model is applied using data from Australian cities, suggesting that in most of the scenarios analysed a high standard bus service is the most cost-effective mode, because it provides lower operator costs (infrastructure, rolling stock and operating cost), access time costs (due to a larger number of lines) and waiting time cost (due to larger frequencies of operation). A rail mode, such as light rail or heavy rail, may have a lower total cost only if it is able to run faster than bus rapid transit, and the difference in speed is enough to outweigh the bus advantage on operator cost and access and waiting times. ?? 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

However, it is not always easy to obtain it because OD surveys are expensive and difficult to implement. This is particularly relevant in large cities with congested networks, where detailed zonification and time disaggregation require large sample sizes and complicated survey methods. Therefore, the incorporation of information technology in some public transport systems around the world is an excellent opportunity for passive data collection. In this paper, we present a methodology for estimating a public transport OD matrix from smartcard and GPS data for Santiago, Chile. The proposed method is applied to two 1-week datasets obtained for different time periods. From the data available, we obtain detailed information about the time and position of boarding public transportation and generate an estimation of time and position of alighting for over 80{\%} of the boarding transactions. The results are available at any desired time-space disaggregation. After some post-processing and after incorporating expansion factors to account for unobserved trips, we build public transport OD matrices. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

The main result was that frequency should be proportional to the square root of demand. The role of users' costs was shown to be crucial. This approach has evolved over the past decades, improving our understanding of public transport operations. This paper describes and analyses the evolution of microeconomic models for the analysis of public transport services with parametric demand, leading towards a more comprehensive one. An indepth review of all the contributions in the academic literature is presented, emphasizing both the treatment of variables and the form of the results mostly in terms of frequency and fleet size. A series of partial new elements is also identified. An extension of Jansson's model for a single period is developed analytically, including the effect of vehicle size on operating costs and the influence of crowding on the value of time. Numerical simulations are used for comparison and analysis. A general model is then proposed where bus operations are optimized accounting for a number of simultaneous relations. Finally, the different models are discussed and compared.},

For each route at each time of day and for each day of the week, the distribution of travel times across different weeks is measured using loop detector data. The best-fitting models represent travel-time by its median, and unreliability by the difference between the 90th percentile and the median. We present models of route choice both alone and combined with other choices, namely time of day, car occupancy, and installation of an electronic transponder. In our best model, containing all these choices except time of day, value of time (VOT) is {\$}22.87 per hour, while value of reliability is {\$}15.12 per hour for men and {\$}31.91 for women.

Very fertile model applicable in a number of settings. Waterloo: How to position troops? Gettysburg: How to position troops? Quiz: Colonel Blotto is a model about strategic mismatch and allocation of resources. (a)True, (b) False Ans: (a) True Will cover: (a) basic game, (b) one side advantaged (more troops), (c) competition models comparison 16.2 Blotto: No Best Strategy How it works: Strategic Mismatch – Two Players with T troops and N fronts with (T {\textgreater}{\textgreater} N) Actions: allocate troops across the fronts Payoffs: Number of Fronts won This is a zero sum game: win or lose. Best to avoid zero sum games if you can. Try for net growth games – but Colonel Blotto is zero sum. Note any strategy can be beaten! (if you know your opponents strategy). So no obvious best strategy. Quiz: Which of the two scenarios below is a zero sum game? (a) A trading of surpluses -as when one farmer trades milk to another in exchange for vegetables. (b) A chess match. Ans: (b) a chess match Explanation: In a zero sum game, one party's gain necessitates another party's equivalent loss. This is the case in chess, in which one player wins and the other loses. Trading of surpluses is a positive-sum game, in which an action between two or more parties leads to a net gain. Example: T= 100, N = 3, Sequential move game Sacrifice on one front to win on two! But any strategy can be beaten in sequential move game. Another (better) strategy: But P2 could note P1's strategy and shift to 30 20 50 and so on. Note info on opponent strategy required. AND not all 100 troops required to win! Quiz: Suppose that you playing a game of Blotto on three fronts. Your opponent allocates her 100 troops as follows: 40 on front A, 40 on front B, and 20 on front C. If you knew how she was allocated her troops, how many troops would you need to defeat her? Ans: 62 Explanation: You need only 62 troops. You can put 41 on front A, 0 on front B, and 21 on front C.},

abstract = {Background: Between 2003 and 2008, a total of 25 partnerships funded through the Active Living by Design (ALbD) program worked to change built environments and policies in communities to help citizens be active in their daily routines. Purpose: This paper systematically summarized the scope of ALbD physical projects and policy changes, described resources generated by the partnerships, and highlighted supports and barriers to the process. Methods: Using a mixed-methods approach, multiple data sources, including key informant interviews, focus groups, and a web-based tracking system, were used to collect data during project implementation. Qualitative results were analyzed using systematic coding procedures to identify themes, ideas, and concepts derived from the data. Data analysis occurred in 2008-2010. Results: Most of the 25 partnerships documented physical projects and policy changes in each of the following sectors: urban planning (n=16); active transportation (n=23); trails/parks/recreation/open space (n=22); communities (n=22); and schools (n=18). ALbD community partnerships were successful at generating ???{\$}256 million in resources beyond their initial grant, mostly through policy changes. Challenges included creating and sustaining political will and community support as well as securing technical expertise and resources. Planning and relationship building were critical to success in changing policy and implementing projects. Conclusions: Although there is more to understand about how these change processes affect physical activity and health across populations and settings, as well as how social, cultural, and psychosocial factors influence community responses to the policy changes and physical projects, findings from this initiative provide a foundation for subsequent research and practice. ?? 2012 American Journal of Preventive Medicine.},

abstract = {This article summarizes price elasticities and cross-elasticities for use in public transit planning. It describes elasticities and how they are used, and examines previous re- search on transit elasticities. Commonly used transit elasticity values are largely based on studies of short- and medium-run impacts performed decades ago when real incomes where lower and a larger portion of the population was transit depen- dent. As a result, they tend to be lower than appropriate to model long-run impacts. Analysis based on these elasticity values tends to understate the potential of transit fare reductions and service improvements to reduce problems, such as traffic con- gestion and vehicle pollution, and understates the long-term negative impacts that fare increases and service cuts will have on transit ridership, transit revenue, traffic congestion, and pollution emissions.},

abstract = {This paper reports the first meta-analysis and most extensive review of stated preference studies of transportation noise nuisance. The meta-analysis is based on a newly compiled data set of 258 values from 49 studies and 23 countries and spanning more than 40 years. Contrast this with the most extensive meta-analysis of the more conventional hedonic pricing approach which includes 53 noise valuations. Moreover, the sample compares favourably with the 444 observations from the very first meta-analysis of the value of travel time savings which is by far the most widely examined parameter in transport planning. A particularly significant finding of the study is that the intertemporal income elasticity is close to one, somewhat larger than the cross-sectional income elasticity typically obtained from individual studies. This demonstrates the importance of distinguishing the effects of income variations that occur over time, which tend to drive policy, from variations across individuals at one point in time, and such findings are typical of those observed in other markets. Importantly, the values derived are transferable across countries and may be used to benchmark existing evidence and provide values in contexts where none exist. Other key results are that values for aircraft noise exceed those for other modes, whilst those exposed to higher noise levels and those who are highly annoyed also have higher values in line with expectations. A wide range of design effects were tested but few were significant and these included the consumer surplus measure, the representation of noise and the context.},

Complete streets can provide many direct and indirect benefits including improved accessibility for non-drivers, user savings and affordability, energy conservation and emission reductions, improved community livability, improved public fitness and health, and support for strategic development objectives such as urban redevelopment and reduced sprawl.

In this context, the question is how to make cities contribute positively to the wellbeing of all their inhabitants and with economic, social and environmental sustainability. Due to increased complexity of their functionality and limitations imposed by the existing uncoordinated frameworks for designing and managing urban systems, cities are already facing great challenges such as resource scarcity, institutional barriers, narrow accounting frameworks, lock-in due to infrastructure, inequality, congestion, crime and diseases, which will only worsen with increased urbanization. As such, innovative tools for planning and engineering coordinated solutions to transform cities' systems are at the heart of sustainable living in the future. As part of the EPSRC programme grant Transforming the Engineering of Cities we are conducting research to understand precisely how to radically transform the way in which cities are engineered to move towards future cities that address current challenges and promote long-term well-being for society and the planet. After reviewing evidence of urban transformations, we identified that, in most cases, their starting point was a high level vision, usually defined by political leadership based on strong participatory processes, which constructed imaginaries that defined the main urban functions to be provided by the city and that underpinned all projects and policies in the short and long term. Because of the importance of setting such a vision our research aims to define a way of developing a vision of a future ideal city. Our approach identifies a methodology for defining the future city vision that is able to move beyond the all-too-common 'political wish list' and that enabled the vision to be defined as a result of a rigorous process. To develop this process we divided the work into two phases. The first phase included empirical work in Latin America, the UK and China and literature review of exemplary urban transformations. As a result, an initial preferable future vision, conceptualized as the 5-cities model was defined. The second phase included a series of 8 sectoral visioning workshops conducted over a period of 2 years in London and other UK cities. Each workshop is analysed to identify the high level principles for the preferable future city. This research findings underscore that transformative planning only can take place when social norms, people's behaviors and people's attitudes change. Urban life is created by everyone in cities, the municipality, citizens, owners, businesses, experts, individuals, communities; therefore, urban life can only be transformed through the right tools to engage and involve them, and it is precisely what the process of defining a high level principles vision and the vision itself should do.},

abstract = {Buses are the unrecognized champions of public transport in modern cities around the world. However, the bus system is usually bedevilled by poor design that has resulted from poor understanding of how a bus system actually works. This article examines the impacts of the interactions between buses, passengers and traffic on delays and capacity at bus stops. First, issues like the stages of bus stop operations, causes of delays, and the interaction between bus frequency and stop delays are analysed. This suggests the necessity of microscopic simulation to study stops operations. An illustration of the sort of understanding that can be achieved by means of simulation experiments regarding arrival patterns of buses and passengers, boarding times, difficulties for leaving the stop and vehicle capacity is shown. Results indicate that it is important not to underestimate the real situation found at bus stops, as designing for ideal conditions will be insufficient if the reality is different. Application of these results shows that dramatic improvements can be made to the performance of the bus system as a result of a better understanding of its operation leading to simple changes in the design of infrastructure.},

@article{Long2000,
abstract = {In the presence of heteroscedasticity, ordinary least squares (OLS) estimates are unbiased, but the usual tests of significance are generally inappropriate and their use can lead to incorrect inferences. Tests based on a heteroscedasticity consistent covariance matrix (HCCM), however, are consistent even in the presence of heteroscedasticity of an unknown form. Most applications that use a HCCM appear to rely on the asymptotic version known as HC0. Our Monte Carlo simulations show that HC0 often results in incorrect inferences when N ≤ 250, while three relatively unknown, small sample versions of the HCCM, and especially a version known as HC3, work well even for N's as small as 25. We recommend that: (1) data analysts should correct for heteroscedasticity using a HCCM whenever there is reason to suspect heteroscedasticity; (2) the decision to use HCCM-based tests should not be determined by a screening test for heteroscedasticity; and (3) when N ≤ 250, the HCCM known as HC3 should be used. Since HC3 is simple to compute, we encourage authors of statistical software to add this estimator to their programs.},

Even the multidimensional measures understate the amount of diversity by projecting cognitive differences onto multidimensional spaces. In the toolbox framework, people differ in their capacities and these capacities translate into crude rankings at best. We see why we might be able to rank mathematicians but why we cannot say whether Tolstoy was smarter than Newton. We can rank within domains, but not across them. And we can rank within only some domains—ranking physicists is easier than ranking authors. We cannot say whether Joyce was better than Austen.},

When both forces operate, the society converges to a coordinated behavior that is consistent across the attributes. We find that convergence in the twoforce model is slower than a pure conformity model and that a preponderance of one force over the other slows convergence, rather than hastening it. We further find that the two forces amplify small errors in individual behavior and prove capable of producing substantial persistent diversity.},

abstract = {Social scientists sometimes joke that economics is the study of how people make choices and sociology is the study of why we don't really have any choice, why we're bound by social structures to take particular actions. In most settings, our actions depend on a combination of personal motivations and desires and social pressures. What clothes we buy, what we eat, what movies we watch, which house we buy, even who we marry depends partly on our own preferences and partly on the opinions and wishes of others. In this first model, I am going to start out by assuming that social pressures determine how we act in a particular setting. I'll start with an example. When you meet someone, do you shake hands, bow, bump fists, hug, or kiss each other on the cheek? How you answer that question correlates with where you live and the identity of your parents. I will argue that no one of these ways of greeting is inherently any better than any other. Shaking is quick but it also spreads germs from hand to hand. Kissing on the cheek is warm and fuzzy but meeting a group of friends gives you a melange of other people's saliva on your cheek. To model this decision, I'm going to construct a game called pure coordination. In this game, Cal and Sam meet on the street. They have to decide, do we hug or do we bow.

abstract = {The distribution of the value of travel time savings (VTTS) is investigated employing various nonparametric techniques to a large dataset originating from a stated choice experiment. The data contain choices between a fast and more expensive alternative and a slow and less expensive alternative. Increasing the implicit price of time leads to an increased share of respondents who decline to pay to save time. But a significant proportion of respondents, 13{\%}, remain willing to pay to save time at the highest price of time in the design. This means that the right tail of the VTTS distribution is not observed and hence the mean VTTS cannot be evaluated without additional assumptions. When socio-economic and situational variables are introduced into a semiparametric model it becomes possible to accept that the whole VTTS distribution is observed. Sixteen candidates for parametric VTTS distributions are investigated. Some distributions are simply not able to fit to the empirical distribution while others have very long tails. The mean VTTS is shown to be extremely dependent on the choice of parametric distribution. Requiring that the parametric distribution should be accepted against the nonparametric alternative narrows the field down to five candidates. One of the distributions tested here has also support within the observed range such that the estimated VTTS is bounded by the data. ?? 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {The scientific literature frequently discusses questions if cost-benefit analysis (CBA) or multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) is the appropriate appraisal tool in transport policy-making, or a combination of both. Hardly any literature exists on the opinions of real transport policy decision-makers about appraisal tools such as CBA or MCDM (or both) which are actually supposed to help them. The aim of this paper is to discuss from a politicians' perspective how a useful transport policy appraisal tool might look like. Twenty-one Dutch transport politicians were interviewed on their views on CBA. The results show that they use CBA but in a non-decisive manner and they find the aggregate outcome (the composite result) of CBAs pretentious. They seem especially interested in appraisal tools which show clearly to them the political important trade-offs of a transport policy. This paper proposes a possible approach for such a trade-off information sheet using both CBA and MCDM.},

abstract = {This paper investigates the perceptions of key participants in the Dutch Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) practice regarding substantive problems when appraising spatial-infrastructure projects with CBA. Two research methods were applied. Firstly, 86 key participants in the Dutch CBA practice were interviewed in-depth in order to obtain an overview and a ranking of perceived substantive problems with CBA in the Netherlands. Secondly, the people interviewed were also asked to fill in a written questionnaire in which they were asked to rank the substantive problems once again, in order to improve the validity of the ranking; 74 of the participants completed this questionnaire. The most important conclusions of this paper are, firstly, that key participants in the Dutch CBA practice consider 'problems with the estimation of the non-monetized project effects' as the most important substantive problem cluster and 'problems with monetizing project effects' as the second most important substantive problem cluster. Secondly, key participants in the Dutch CBA practice consider the 'problem analysis' in a CBA to be a very important substantive problem. Thirdly, there is, in a broad sense, consensus among the different groups in the Dutch CBA practice concerning their perception of the seriousness of problem clusters and the way they rank the problem clusters. Fourthly, a large part of the substantive problems mentioned by the key participants in the Dutch CBA practice are non-specific CBA problems. ?? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The state of the art in appraisal of transport infrastructure (particularly for developed countries) is moving towards inclusivity of a set of wider impacts than has traditionally been the case. In appraisal frameworks generally Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA), features as either an alternative to, or complementary with, Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) particularly when assessing a wider set of distributional and other impacts. In that respect it goes some way towards addressing an identified weakness in conventional CBA. This paper proposes a new method to incorporate the wider impacts into the appraisal framework (SUMINI) based upon a composite indicator and MCA. The method is illustrated for a particular example of the wider set of impacts, i.e. equity, through the ex-post assessment of two large EU transport infrastructure (TEN-T) case studies. The results suggest that SUMINI assesses equity impacts well and the case studies highlight the flexibility of the approach in reflecting different policy or project objectives. The research concludes that this method should not be viewed as being in competition with traditional CBA, but that it could be an easily adopted and complementary approach. The value in the research is in providing a new and significant methodological advance to the historically difficult question of how to evaluate equity and other wider impacts. The research is of strong international significance due to the publication of the TEN-Ts review by the European Commission, as well as the transnational nature of large scale interurban transport schemes, the involvement of national and transnational stakeholder groups in the approval and funding of those schemes, the large numbers of population potentially subject to equity and other wider impacts and the degree of variation in the regional objectives and priorities for transport decision makers.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

abstract = {Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) for transport investments is particularly useful for situations where a large number of investments have to be ranked against each other. This study draws on experiences from the development of the Swedish National Transport Investment Plan 2010-21. We study how CBA results were used in the process of shaping the investment plan and what influence they had on investment decisions. In particular, we compare the planners' rankings versus the politicians' rankings. We find that planners' rankings of investments are influenced by benefit-cost ratios (BCRs), in particular for low and moderate BCRs, while the politicians' rankings are not. By interviewing planners about how CBA was used in the process, we clarify what role CBA actually played in the planning process. We find that not only did the CBAs play a role in investment selection, they also forced investment design to be more cost-efficient. Furthermore, we explore planners' implicit valuations, as revealed by their investment selection, finding that freight benefits were implicitly valued higher and traffic safety lower than the officially recommended CBA weights. Finally, we identify the most important areas for improvement of CBA state-of-practice methodology.},

In general, the universe of RUM consistent models is much larger, even fixing some specification of V due to theoretical and practical considerations. In this paper, we explore an alternative RUM model where the summation of V and ?? is replaced by multiplication. This is consistent with the notion that choice makers may sometimes evaluate relative differences in V between alternatives rather than absolute differences. We develop some properties of this type of model and show that in several cases the change from an additive to a multiplicative formulation, maintaining a specification of V, may lead to a large improvement in fit, sometimes larger than that gained from introducing random coefficients in V. ?? 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {Travel time and its reliability are intuitive performance measures for freeway traffic operations. The objective of this project was to quantify segment-based and corridor-based travel time reliability measures on urban freeways. To achieve this objective, a travel-time estimation model and a travel-time reliability prediction framework were developed. The proposed travel-time estimation model considers spatially correlated traffic conditions. Segment-level and corridor-level travel-time distributions were estimated using travel time estimates and compared with estimates based on probe vehicle data. Corridor-level travel-time reliability measures were extracted from travel-time distributions. The proposed travel-time estimation model can well capture the temporal pattern of travel time and its distribution. For the corridor-level travel-time reliability prediction framework, travel time observations are classified based on weather conditions, segment travel-time distributions are estimated, and segment travel-time distributions are synthesized to corridor travel-time distributions. The segment travel-time distribution estimation model was found to capture the pattern of actual travel-time distributions and could adequately represent the short-term corridor-level travel-time distributions. The proposed travel-time reliability prediction framework provides a systematic way to estimate real-time and near-future corridor travel-time reliability by considering weather impact. A Vissim simulation calibrated to Iowa compared travel-time distribution based on simulated data to that based on probe vehicle data. The simulated travel-time distribution is similar to the travel-time distribution based on probe data.},

He's the lowest draft pick to ever enter the Hall. Few expected him to make the majors, much less the Hall of Fame. My point? Both players stayed hungry and reached their potential. One started at the bottom and one at the top, but both finished on top. There are few things more common than a talented athlete who fails to live up to the hype. Embody Priorities. Both players not only spoke of their priorities, but displayed them. When Griffey was a free agent, he could've stayed in Seattle and made more money, but instead, took a pay cut to play in Cincinnati, where his family was. It's family first. He adores his dad and said his mom was the only woman he knew who could live in one house yet lead five others. He affirmed his children one by one, then honored his wife, Melissa. They will celebrate 25 years of marriage next year. Piazza spoke of his loyalty to friends and to his faith, and he didn't discard those priorities as a star athlete. He honored coaches and mentors and instructors by name—over his thirty years of playing ball. Both guys were humans first, not mere performers. Maintain a Work Ethic.},

We present research that reveals the reliability and operation and maintenance (O{\&}M) impacts of electric underground lines relative to overhead lines.

@article{Hess2012a,
abstract = {Stated choice surveys are used extensively in the study of choice behaviour across many different areas of research, notably in transport. One of their main characteristics in comparison with most types of revealed preference (RP) surveys is the ability to capture behaviour by the same respondent under varying choice scenarios. While this ability to capture multiple choices is generally seen as an advantage, there is a certain amount of unease about survey length. The precise definition about what constitutes a large number of choice tasks however varies across disciplines, and it is not uncommon to see surveys with up to twenty tasks per respondent in some areas. The argument against this practice has always been one of reducing respondent engagement, which could be interpreted as a result of fatigue or boredom, with frequent reference to the findings of Bradley and Daly (1994) who showed a significant drop in utility scale, i.e. an increase in error, as a respondent moved from one choice experiment to the next, an effect they related to respondent fatigue. While the work by Bradley and Daly has become a standard reference in this context, it should be recognised that not only was the fatigue part of the work based on a single dataset, but the state-of-the-art and the state-of-practice in stated choice survey design and implementation has moved on significantly since their study. In this paper, we review other literature and present a more comprehensive study investigating evidence of respondent fatigue across a larger number of different surveys. Using a comprehensive testing framework employing both Logit and mixed Logit structures, we provide strong evidence that the concerns about fatigue in the literature are possibly overstated, with no clear decreasing trend in scale across choice tasks in any of our studies. For the data sets tested, we find that accommodating any scale heterogeneity has little or no impact on substantive model results, that the role of constants generally decreases as the survey progresses, and that there is evidence of significant attribute level (as opposed to scale) heterogeneity across choice tasks. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Preferences for transport activities are often considered only in terms of time and money. Whilst congestion in automobile traffic increases costs by raising trip durations, the same is less obvious in public transport (PT), especially rail-based. This has lead many economic analyses to conclude that there exists a free lunch by reducing the attractiveness of automobile transport at no (or little) cost for PT users. This article argues that congestion in PT - crowding - is also costly. Using survey data from the Paris metro we estimate the degree to which users value comfort in terms of less crowding. Using a contingent valuation method (CVM) we describe marginal willingness to pay over different parts of the distribution of in-vehicle crowding and consider moderating factors. We conclude that the total welfare cost for a trip rises from e2.42 for a seated passenger to e3.69 under the most congested conditions. We apply our results to the cost-benefit analysis of a recent investment in PT in Paris and consider broader implications for transport policy. In particular, we highlight that PT congestion is a first-order urban externality.},

abstract = {In departure time studies it is crucial to ascertain whether or not individuals are flexible in their choices. Previous studies have found that individuals with flexible work times have a lower value of time for late arrivals. Flexibility is usually measured in terms of flexible work start time or in terms of constraints in arrival time at work. Although used for the same purpose, these two questions can convey different types of information. Moreover, constraints in departure time are often related not only to the main work activity, but to all daily activities. The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of constraints in work and in other daily trips/activities on the willingness to shift departure time and the willingness to pay for reducing travel time and travel delay. We set up a survey to collect detailed data on the full 24hour outofhome activities and on the constraints for each of these activities. We then built a stated preference experiment to infer preferences on departure time choice, and estimated a mixed logit model, based on the scheduling model, to account for the effects of daily activity schedules and their constraints. Our results show that measuring flexibility in terms of work start time or constraints at work does not provide exactly the same information. Since onethird of the workers with flexible working hours in the survey indicated that they have restrictions on late workarrival times, their willingness to pay will be overestimated (almost doubled) if flexibility information is asked only in terms of fixed/flexible working hours. This clearly leads to different conclusion in terms of demand sensitivity to reschedule to a later departure time. We also found that having other activities and constraints during the day increases the individuals' willingness to pay to avoid being late at work, where the presence of constraints on daily activities other than work is particularly relevant for individuals with no constraints at work. The important impact of these findings is that if we neglect the presence of constraints, as is common practise in transport models, it will generally lead to biased valueoftime estimates. Results clearly show that the shift in the departure time, especially towards a late departure time, is strongly overestimated (the predicted shift is more than double) when the effect of nonwork activities and their constraints is not accounted for.},

abstract = {Motivating people to change their departure time could play a key role in reducing peak-hour congestion, which remains one of the most prevalent transport problems in large urban areas. To achieve this behavioural change, it is necessary to better understand the factors that influence departure time choice. So far departure time choice modelling focussed mainly on objective factors, such as time and costs as main behavioural determinants. In this study, we derived psychological factors based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour, estimated them based on structural equation modelling, and included them into a discrete choice model. The psychological factors were measured based on an online questionnaire addressed to car commuters to the city centre of Copenhagen (N = 286). The questionnaire additionally included a travel diary and a stated preference experiment with nine departure time choice scenarios. All psychological factors had a significant effect on departure time choice and could improve the model as compared to a basic discrete choice model without latent constructs. As expected, the effects of the psychological factors were different depending on framework conditions: for people with fixed starting times at work, the intention to arrive at work on time (as estimated by subjective norm, attitude, perceived behavioural control) had the strongest effect; for people with flexible working hours, the attitude towards short travel time was most relevant. Limitations, the inclusion of additional psychological factors and their possible interactions are discussed.},

Overall, we find that offering incentives to commuters, particularly fast food restaurant-related services and reduced ticket fares, has a positive influence on avoiding the morning rush hour. Furthermore, by using an interaction analysis, we discover that a flexible work schedule has an impact on commuters' behavior and the efficiency of the subway system. Finally, we recommend two possible policies to maximize the utility of the subway system and to reduce congestion at the peak of morning service: (1) a set of incentives that includes free wireless internet service with a coupon for breakfast and a discount on ticket fares before the morning peak and (2) the introduction of a flexible work schedule. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {Modeling of departure time choice has recently received renewed attention because of the increasing levels of congestion in many cities and the growing popularity of travel demand management strategies such as road pricing. Current practice for evaluation of the effectiveness of travel demand management policies usually involves incorporation of the temporal dimension into transport planning models only through fixed factors derived from origin-destination data, but this practice makes them unsuitable for use in proper prediction of demand at different times of the day. To mitigate these deficiencies, the authors argue in favor of estimation and application of specially formulated time-of-day choice models. Here the concentration is on the process used to generate a survey design that obtains data suitable for estimation of such models that will ensure both realism and simplicity in the presentation; in particular, the stated preference exercise includes dependence between attribute levels. The proposed procedure should be widely applicable and offers many improvements over current practice in the field.},

abstract = {AbstractÐThe nested logit model has been used extensively to model multi-dimensional choice situations. A drawback of the nested logit model is that it does not allow choice alternatives to share common unobserved attributes along all the dimensions characterizing the multidimensional choice context. This paper formulates a mixed multinomial logit structure that accommodates unobserved correlation across both dimensions in a two-dimensional choice context. The mixed multinomial logit structure is parsimonious in the number of parameters to be estimated and is also relatively easy to estimate using simulation methods. The mixed mul- tinomial logit model is applied to an analysis of travel mode and departure time choice for home-based social±recreational trips using data drawn from the 1990 San Francisco Bay Area household survey. The empirical results underscore the need to capture unobserved attributes along both the mode and departure time dimensions, both for improved data {\textregistered}t as well as for more realistic policy evaluations of transportation control measures. {\#} 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.

abstract = {Travel mode and departure time choice of urban trips are important determinants of urban travel demand and the temporal distribution of this demand. While mode choice has received substantial attention in travel demand modeling, relatively little attention has been directed toward departure time choice. Further, the work trip has been the focus of most earlier mode choice research, and almost all earlier departure time choice research. The current paper examines the joint nature of mode and departure time choice for urban shopping trips. The model formulation in the paper adopts a nested structure with mode choice at the higher level of the hierarchy and departure time choice at the lower level. A multinomial logit (MNL) form is used for modeling mode choice and an ordered generalized extreme value (OGEV) form, which recognizes the natural temporal ordering of the departure time alternatives, is adopted for departure time choice. The proposed MNL-OGEV model is applied to data obtained from the 1990 San Francisco Bay area travel survey and is found to perform better than the MNL and nested logit models. In addition, the results indicate that the MNL and nested logit models lead to biased level-of-service estimates and to inappropriate policy evaluations of transportation control measures in the current empirical context.},

@article{Hjorth2011,
abstract = {Travel time variability (TTV) is increasingly acknowledged to be an important concern for both the users and the providers of transport services. The correct measurement of variability and its value for the users are important in the design of transport policies. Travel time variability is associated with risk, hence risk and its perception should be reflected in the valuation of variability. The focus of this paper is on the perception of variability and its value for the users by application of a Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT) approach. CPT is a descriptive theory of decision making under risk that departs from Expected Value Maximization in two essential ways; the transformation of outcomes using value functions where the carriers of value are gains and losses rather than final levels, with diminishing sensitivity for both gains and losses; and the rank-dependent transformation of probabilities using probability weighting functions. The current paper applies data from two Stated Choice experiments from a recent Norwegian value of time study (Ramjerdi, et al, 2010), which addresses variability of travel time for all modes of travel and for both long and short distance travel. In both experiments, travel alternatives differ with respect to travel time and cost, but in the first experiment, travel time is known with certainty, while in the second it is subject to variability, represented by a five-point distribution. We model behaviour using a logit model with separate value functions for travel time and cost and a rank-dependent transformation of probabilities. We hypothesize that the resulting estimates of the value of travel time differ between the two experiments, because the value from the second experiment encompasses additional disutility due to risk. We argue that the difference between the values of time provides a measure of the value of travel time variability.},

@article{Borjesson2012b,
abstract = {The standard method of estimating the value of travel time variability for use in policy appraisal is to estimate the parameters of a reduced-form utility function, where some measure of travel time variability (such as the standard deviation) is included. A problem with this approach is that the obtained valuation will in general depend on the standardized travel time distribution, and hence cannot be transferred from one context to another. A recently suggested remedy for this problem has been to estimate a scheduling model, which in theory is transferrable, and use the implied reduced-form to derive valuations for use in appraisal. In this paper we estimate both a scheduling model and the implied reduced-form model, using stated choice data. The valuation of travel time variability implied by the scheduling model turns out to be substantially smaller than what is obtained from a reduced-form model estimated on the same sample. The results suggest that the scheduling model does not capture all of the disutility arising from travel time variability. Hence, although it can be shown that scheduling and reduced-form models are theoretically equivalent, that hypothesized equivalence is not reflected in the empirical evidence. We speculate that the derivation of reduced-form models from an underlying scheduling model omits two essential features: first, the notion of an exogenously fixed " preferred arrival time" neglects the fact that most activities can be rescheduled given full information about the travel times in advance, and second, disutility may be derived from uncertainty as such, in the form of anxiety, decisions costs or costs for having contingency plans. We also report our estimates of the valuation of travel time variability for public transit trips, for use in applied appraisal. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The purpose of this paper is to estimate trends in income and price elasticities and to offer insights for the future growth in transport use, with particular emphasis on the impact of energy and technological transitions. The results indicate that income and price elasticities of passenger transport demand in the United Kingdom were very large (3.1 and -1.5, respectively) in the mid-nineteenth century, and declined since then. In 2010, long run income and price elasticity of aggregate land transport demand were estimated to be 0.8 and -0.6. These trends suggest that future elasticities related to transport demand in developed economies may decline very gradually and, in developing economies, where elasticities are often larger, they will probably decline more rapidly as the economies develop. Because of the declining trends in elasticities, future energy and technological transitions are not likely to generate the growth rates in energy consumption that occurred following transitions in the nineteenth century. Nevertheless, energy and technological transitions, such as the car and the airplane, appear to have delayed and probably will delay declining trends in income and price elasticity of aggregate transport demand. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

We use insights gained from one of the most influential lines of behavioral research—gift exchange—in an attempt to maximize worker effort in two quite distinct tasks: data entry for a university library and door-to-door fundraising for a research center. In support of the received literature, our field evidence suggests that worker effort in the first few hours on the job is considerably higher in the “gift” treatment than in the “nongift” treatment. After the initial few hours, however, no difference in outcomes is observed, and overall the gift treatment yielded inferior aggregate outcomes for the employer: with the same budget we would have logged more data for our library and raised more money for our research center by using the market-clearing wage rather than by trying to induce greater effort with a gift of higher wages.},

@inproceedings{Whelan2009,
abstract = {Overcrowding is becoming an increasingly important issue for the UK rail industry. The demand for passenger rail travel is at a 50 year high and is growing at a rate of 4.5{\%} per annum. In many cases, the network is at, or close to, capacity and there is limited scope to price-off demand as principal commuter fares are regulated. The UK Department for Transport (DfT) is responsible for both rail industry strategy and for the specification of franchises; strategies for managing demand and capacity are integral to both of these.   To be able to demonstrate value for money, it is essential for the DfT to have robust estimates of both the economic value of reducing overcrowding and the demand effects of it.     Evidence on the valuation of overcrowding contained within the rail sector{\&}rsquo;s Passenger Demand Forecasting Handbook (PDFH) has a number of limitations. Existing values only extend to a certain level of crowding which is already exceeded in a number of situations, and without mitigating action, will be exceeded in many others in the future.   In addition, the level of disaggregation, particularly in terms of geographical coverage, may not be sufficient to accurately reflect both current and future situations. The DfT has therefore commissioned this study to obtain robust estimates of the valuation of overcrowding across the range of contexts in which it may occur, so that it can take appropriate decisions on policies to mitigate overcrowding and demonstrate value for money.   The methodological approach adopted in this research is based on a large scale programme of market research including a series of six focus groups, 50 in-depth cognitive interviews, and the distribution of more than 10,000 web and paper based questionnaires across 14 sites aimed at collecting transfer price (TP), revealed preference (RP) and stated preference data. In this paper, we provide a description of the development and analysis of the stated preference survey.   An important aspect of the study was to undertake a qualitative investigation of how rail users consider overcrowding, how they change their behaviour to mitigate its effects, and how to describe/ present different levels of crowding as {\&}ldquo;show material{\&}rdquo; in the questionnaire. This investigation helped shape the specification of the strength-of-preference experiments and overall questionnaire design.   The questionnaire returns were analysed under choice modelling framework involving the estimation of a range of advanced choice models. The focus of model estimation was to examine how the value of travel time savings for rail users is influenced by both the duration and level of overcrowding, and how these (non-linear) values vary across individuals and market segments.   In defining the analysis we pay close attention to how values of crowding vary with journey duration and the travelling environment (especially standing, or sitting) and develop a {\&}ldquo;family of curves{\&}rdquo; showing the relationship between crowding penalties and the level of crowding.    },

We identify three measures used to value crowding (a time multiplier, a monetary value per time unit and a monetary value per trip), and associated ways of representing crowding in stated preference experiments. Although a number of different types of crowding in terms of location are identified, namely in-vehicle, access-way, entrance and platform/station, the majority of reviewed studies investigate only in-vehicle crowding. Despite the different characteristics of the reviewed studies, they all report that crowding would increase the value of travel time savings, which can be viewed as an additional component of generalised time. This paper also comments on the role that the WTP for crowding reduction can play in project appraisal, and suggests some important avenues for future public transport crowding valuation research. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {The last decade has seen rapid advances in telecommunications technology in an increasingly deregulated and competitive market place. Companies operating in these various markets have relied on demand forecasts to justify the considerable investment needed to ensure capacity availability at the right time. These new markets are typically composed of new consumers taking up a product or service for the first time, established users changing their usage patterns, users of competing services shifting to the alternative service and those exiting from this segment of the market altogether. This paper describes various models that have been used to understand market dynamics. Markets discussed include both established and new: mobile, the internet, and PSTN (public switched telephony network). Cross-sectional choice models of the mode of accessing the service are discussed along with models for usage in established markets. These models typically include price (and perceived price) differentials and use standard econometric methods, focusing on price elasticity estimation. Forecasting accuracy has been neglected. New product models may include additional 'drivers' such as aspects of service quality and the attributes of the products themselves. Both choice models of adoption of new products and Bass-type diffusion models have been used in forecasting. Because of the complexity of the 'drivers' of the adoption process, the successful modelling of these new markets has been limited, not least by inadequate data. Simulation models have been proposed to structure the problem more completely and overcome these inadequacies. Both these classes of model have not been effectively validated, researchers having been content just to propose a new approach without thoroughly testing it against alternatives. The only class of telecommunications forecasting problem that has been more thoroughly analysed are those needed to support operations such as call centres. This review paper describes the research that has been carried out on the three problem areas of established products, new products and operations, highlighting areas where further research is needed. The paper also serves as an introduction to the Special Issue on Telecoms Forecasting by describing how the papers contribute to the developing research agenda. ?? 2002 International Institute of Forecasters.

abstract = {In the 2000s, online games became popular, while studies of Internet gaming addiction emerged, outlining the negative consequences of excessive gaming, its prevalence, and associated risk factors. The establishment of specialized treatment centers in SouthEast Asia, the US, and Europe reflects the growing need for professional help. It is argued that only by understanding the appeal of Internet gaming, its context, and neurobiologic correlates can the phenomenon of Internet gaming addiction be understood comprehensively. The aim of this review is to provide an insight into current perspectives on Internet gaming addiction using a holistic approach, taking into consideration the mass appeal of online games, the context of Internet gaming addiction, and associated neuroimaging findings, as well as the current diagnostic framework adopted by the American Psychiatric Association. The cited research indicates that the individual's context is a significant factor that marks the dividing line between excessive gaming and gaming addiction, and the game context can gain particular importance for players, depending on their life situation and gaming preferences. Moreover, the cultural context is significant because it embeds the gamer in a community with shared beliefs and practices, endowing their gaming with particular meaning. The cited neuroimaging studies indicate that Internet gaming addiction shares similarities with other addictions, including substance dependence, at the molecular, neurocircuitry, and behavioral levels. The findings provide support for the current perspective of understanding Internet gaming addiction from a disease framework. The benefits of an Internet gaming addiction diagnosis include reliability across research, destigmatization of individuals, development of efficacious treatments, and the creation of an incentive for public health care and insurance providers. The holistic approach adopted here not only highlights empirical research that evidences neurobiologic correlates of Internet gaming addiction and the establishment of a preliminary diagnosis, but also emphasizes the necessity of an indepth understanding of the meaning, context, and practices associated with gaming.},

Transportation Research Part B, Vol. 43 (8–9), pp. 813–820, 2010] presented a derivation of the value of travel time variability (VTTV) with a number of desirable properties. This definition of the VTTV depends on certain properties of the distribution of random travel times that require empirical verification. This paper therefore provides a detailed empirical investigation of the distribution of travel times on an urban road. Applying a range of nonparametric statistical techniques to data giving minute-by-minute travel times for a congested urban road over a period of five months, we show that the standardized travel time is roughly independent of the time of day as required by the theory. Except for the extreme right tail, a stable distribution seems to fit the data well. The travel time distributions on consecutive links seem to share a common stability parameter such that the travel time distribution for a sequence of links is also a stable distribution. The parameters of the travel time distribution for a sequence of links can then be derived analytically from the link level distributions.},

abstract = {Abstract This paper reviews evidence from British experience of the valuation of rail crowding obtained over 20 years from 17 studies. It summarizes these studies, places some useful empirical evidence in the public domain and draws lessons from this considerable body of evidence and experience. Crowding valuations, both for standing and seated in crowding conditions, are summarized in terms of time multipliers, which are inherently more transferable than monetary equivalents. A meta?analysis of 208 valuations is reported, finding the valuations to vary with load factor and journey purpose. The seating multiplier averages 1.19 and the standing multiplier averages 2.32. The latter is in line with widely used multipliers applied to walking and waiting time. The most recent evidence is based around the number of standing passengers per square metre, thereby providing a more accurate measure of the discomfort of standing since, unlike load factor, it allows for the layout of the carriage and ease with which crowding can be accommodated. As far as methodology is concerned, the paper covers issues such as presenting crowding in ?stated preference? exercises and the realism of the crowding levels offered, non?linearities in the relationship between crowding multipliers and the severity and amount of crowding time, and probabilistic versus deterministic representations of crowding. The paper also identifies future areas for research.},

It sets out to produce, on the case of the Paris subway, a congestion cost curve linking the willingness to pay for non-congested travel to actual congestion levels. Congestion costs appear high. What travelers would be ready to pay to avoid congestion in the Paris subway is on average about three times the amount of their out-of-pocket payments. An 8{\%} increase in densities experienced over the 2002-2007 period implies a welfare loss of at least 75. M€/year.

abstract = {Measurement errors in economic data are pervasive and nontrivial in size. The presence of measurement errors causes biased and inconsistent parameter estimates and leads to erroneous conclusions to various degrees in economic analysis. While linear errors-in-variables models are usually handled with well-known instrumental variable methods, this article provides an overview of recent research papers that derive estimation methods that provide consistent estimates for nonlinear models with measurement errors. We review models with both classical and nonclassical measurement errors, and with misclassification of discrete variables. For each of the methods surveyed, we describe the key ideas for identification and estimation, and discuss its application whenever it is currently available. (JEL C20, C26, C50)},

abstract = {The Government is committed to continuing improvement in the delivery of public services. A major part of this is ensuring that public funds are spent on activities that provide the greatest benefits to society, and that they are spent in the most efficient way. The Treasury has, for many years, provided guidance to other public sector bodies on how proposals should be appraised, before significant funds are committed and how past and present activities should be evaluated.This new edition incorporates revised guidance, to encourage a more thorough, long-term and analytically robust approach to appraisal and evaluation. It is relevant to all appraisals and evaluations. Appraisal, done properly, is not rocket science, but it is crucially important and needs to be carried out carefully. Decisions taken at the appraisal stage affect the whole lifecycle of new policies, programmes and projects. Similarly, the proper evaluation of previous initiatives is essential in avoiding past mistakes and to enable us to learn from experience.The Green Book therefore constitutes binding guidance for departments and executive agencies. This edition of the Green Book is the first which has been preceded and helped by a consultation.The consultation process has proved invaluable in shaping the final guidance. While the results have shown widespread support for the main changes proposed, the consultation has particularly helped in making the guidance clearer and more closely tailored to users needs. Amongst the main changes are the following. First, there is a stronger emphasis on the identification, management and realisation of benefits in short, focusing on the end in sight, right from the beginning. Secondly, the new edition unbundles the discount rate, introducing a rate of 3.5{\%} in real terms, based on social time preference, while taking account of the other factors which were in practice often implicitly bundled up in the old 6{\%} real figure. In particular, the new Green Book includes, for the first time, an explicit adjustment procedure to redress the systematic optimism (optimism bias) that historically has afflicted the appraisal process. Finally, there is greater emphasis on assessing the differential impacts of proposals on the various groups in our society, where these are likely to be significant. The Treasury is grateful for the significant contributions to the development of this edition of the Green Book made by many others, working across government and elsewhere. Particular gratitude is due to those who participated in the consultation process and provided such detailed and valuable comments.We hope that the final version reflects the quality of these contributions.},

abstract = {Building on a growing research foundation, transport policy makers have begun to associate the ability to be mobile with having a role in the facilitation of social inclusion. However, the further connection to well-being is not as well understood. This paper explores the association between a person's travel patterns, their risk of social exclusion and self-assessed well-being. Key influences on social exclusion are discussed, with trip making emerging as a significant influence. Trip making is not a significant direct influence on well-being but does exercise an indirect influence through the impact on risk of social exclusion. The modelling process enables a value for additional trips to be estimated, the value being about four times the values derived from conventional generated traffic approaches. Similar high values are found in separate metropolitan and regional case studies, confirming the significance of the results. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {A major question in Economic Geography relates to the scale and nature of transport infrastructure's contribution to the broader economy. While Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) is the most widely used of the three potential approaches, the recent interest in the wider economic benefits of transport infrastructure has spawned a variety of macroeconomic models. However, the estimates of magnitudes and direction of economic impacts of infrastructure by various macroeconomic models are sharply different, and these models shed little light on causal mechanisms linking transport and the economy. This paper has two aims: first, to highlight the wider economic benefits of transport infrastructure from the observed role of railroads and waterways in economic development, and two by reviewing recent theoretical developments to identify the multiple causal mechanisms which link transport and economic growth such as: market expansion, gains from trade, technological shifts, processes of spatial agglomeration and processes of innovation and commercialization of new knowledge in urban clusters (made possible by transport improvements). Hence the need for developing general equilibrium analyses of transport-economy linkages. ?? 2010 Elsevier Ltd.},

A major problem with such models is that, because crashes are rare events, crash statistics cannot account for many of the possible contributing factors. Using traffic conflicts to measure safety can overcome this problem because conflicts occur more frequently than crashes do and can be either measured in the field or estimated with microsimulation models. This study developed crash prediction models from simulated peak hour conflicts for a group of urban four-legged signalized intersections in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and evaluated their predictive capabilities. Case studies with two microsimulation packages, VISSIM and Paramics, demonstrated the use of microsimulation for estimating safety performance.

This paper offers a way forward in addressing some of the theoretical and practical concerns that have presented difficulties to date in incorporating equity concerns in the appraisal of such projects. Initially an overview of current practice within transport regarding the appraisal of equity considerations in Europe is offered based on an extensive literature review. Acknowledging the value of a framework approach, research towards introducing a theoretical framework is then presented. The proposed framework is based on the well established MCA Analytic Hierarchy Process and is also contrasted with the use of a CBA based approach. The framework outlined here offers an additional support tool to decision makers who will be able to differentiate choices based on their views on specific equity principles and equity types. It also holds the potential to become a valuable tool for evaluators as a result of the option to assess predefined equity perspectives of decision makers against both the project objectives and the estimated project impacts.

As a result, the distribution of these benefits has received relatively little attention in transportation planning, compared to transport-related burdens. Drawing on philosophies of social justice, we present an equity assessment of the distribution of accessibility in order to define the rate of "access poverty" among the population. We then apply this analysis to regional transportation plan scenarios from the San Francisco Bay Area, focusing on measures of differences between public transit and automobile access. The analysis shows that virtually all neighborhoods suffer from substantial gaps between car and public transport-based accessibility, but that the two proposed transportation investment programs reduce access poverty compared to the "no project" scenario. We also investigate how access and access poverty rates vary by demographic groups and map low-income communities within access impoverished areas, which could be the subject of further focused investments. ?? 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

Here, we test the small molecule flexible ligand docking program Glide on a set of 19 non-$\alpha$-helical peptides and systematically improve pose prediction accuracy by enhancing Glide sampling for flexible polypeptides. In addition, scoring of the poses was improved by post-processing with physics-based implicit solvent MM- GBSA calculations. Using the best RMSD among the top 10 scoring poses as a metric, the success rate (RMSD ≤ 2.0 {\AA} for the interface backbone atoms) increased from 21{\%} with default Glide SP settings to 58{\%} with the enhanced peptide sampling and scoring protocol in the case of redocking to the native protein structure. This approaches the accuracy of the recently developed Rosetta FlexPepDock method (63{\%} success for these 19 peptides) while being over 100 times faster. Cross-docking was performed for a subset of cases where an unbound receptor structure was available, and in that case, 40{\%} of peptides were docked successfully. We analyze the results and find that the optimized polypeptide protocol is most accurate for extended peptides of limited size and number of formal charges, defining a domain of applicability for this approach.},

@article{Martinez2000,
abstract = {Transport projects are economically assessed partly through estimating users' benefits in the transport system and ignoring impacts on land use under the argument that these benefits are already incorporated into transport users' benefits. In this paper we discuss this argument under two main viewpoints: the level of percolation of transport benefits into land values and the presence of external economies in urban systems. We first propose and discuss measures of benefits in the transport and in the land use system. Then we analyse to what extent transport users' benefits percolate into land rents, showing empirical evidence that it may be limited. The paper then focuses on the less studied effect of three types of technological externalities: direct effects associated with traffic nuisance; location externalities, associated with economies of agglomeration of households and firms, which in some cities may be a dominant location choice factor; and land use-transport interaction. We conclude by specifying in more detail the conditions under which the classical argument and current project appraisal methods are valid},

@article{Ahmed2012,
abstract = {OBJECTIVE: To examine the potential for publication bias, data availability bias, and reviewer selection bias in recently published meta-analyses that use individual participant data and to investigate whether authors of such meta-analyses seemed aware of these issues. DESIGN: In a database of 383 meta-analyses of individual participant data that were published between 1991 and March 2009, we surveyed the 31 most recent meta-analyses of randomised trials that examined whether an intervention was effective. Identification of relevant articles and data extraction was undertaken by one author and checked by another. RESULTS: Only nine (29{\%}) of the 31 meta-analyses included individual participant data from "grey literature" (such as unpublished studies) in their primary meta-analysis, and the potential for publication bias was discussed or investigated in just 10 (32{\%}). Sixteen (52{\%}) of the 31 meta-analyses did not obtain all the individual participant data requested, yet five of these (31{\%}) did not mention this as a potential limitation, and only six (38{\%}) examined how trials without individual participant data might affect the conclusions. In nine (29{\%}) of the meta-analyses reviewer selection bias was a potential issue, as the identification of relevant trials was either not stated or based on a more selective, non-systematic approach. Investigation of four meta-analyses containing data from ≥10 trials revealed one with an asymmetric funnel plot consistent with publication bias, and the inclusion of studies without individual participant data revealed additional heterogeneity between trials. CONCLUSIONS: Publication, availability, and selection biases are a potential concern for meta-analyses of individual participant data, but many reviewers neglect to examine or discuss them. These issues warn against uncritically viewing any meta-analysis that uses individual participant data as the most reliable. Reviewers should seek individual participant data from all studies identified by a systematic review; include, where possible, aggregate data from any studies lacking individual participant data to consider their potential impact; and investigate funnel plot asymmetry in line with recent guidelines.},

abstract = {Objectives: Individual participant data (IPD) meta-analyses often analyze their IPD as if coming from a single study. We compare this approach with analyses that rather account for clustering of patients within studies. Study Design and Setting: Comparison of effect estimates from logistic regression models in real and simulated examples. Results: The estimated prognostic effect of age in patients with traumatic brain injury is similar, regardless of whether clustering is accounted for. However, a family history of thrombophilia is found to be a diagnostic marker of deep vein thrombosis [odds ratio, 1.30; 95{\%} confidence interval (CI): 1.00, 1.70; P = 0.05] when clustering is accounted for but not when it is ignored (odds ratio, 1.06; 95{\%} CI: 0.83, 1.37; P = 0.64). Similarly, the treatment effect of nicotine gum on smoking cessation is severely attenuated when clustering is ignored (odds ratio, 1.40; 95{\%} CI: 1.02, 1.92) rather than accounted for (odds ratio, 1.80; 95{\%} CI: 1.29, 2.52). Simulations show models accounting for clustering perform consistently well, but downwardly biased effect estimates and low coverage can occur when ignoring clustering. Conclusion: Researchers must routinely account for clustering in IPD meta-analyses; otherwise, misleading effect estimates and conclusions may arise. {\textcopyright} 2013 Elsevier Inc.

@article{Nolan2015,
abstract = {BACKGROUND: This is an updated version of the original Cochrane review published in Issue 1, 2003, of the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.Epilepsy is a common neurological condition in which abnormal electrical discharges from the brain cause recurrent unprovoked seizures. It is believed that with effective drug treatment, up to 70{\%} of individuals with active epilepsy have the potential to become seizure-free and go into long-term remission shortly after starting drug therapy with a single antiepileptic drug (AED) in monotherapy.Worldwide, carbamazepine (CBZ) and phenobarbitone (PB) are commonly used broad-spectrum antiepileptic drugs, suitable for most epileptic seizure types. Carbamazepine is a current first-line treatment for partial onset seizures in the USA and Europe. Phenobarbitone is no longer considered a first-line treatment because of concerns over associated adverse events, particularly documented behavioural adverse events in children treated with the drug. However, PB is still commonly used in low- and middle-income countries because of its low cost. No consistent differences in efficacy have been found between CBZ and PB in individual trials; however, the confidence intervals generated by these studies are wide, and therefore, synthesising the data of the individual trials may show differences in efficacy.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nOBJECTIVES: To review the time to withdrawal, remission, and first seizure of CBZ compared with PB when used as monotherapy in people with partial onset seizures (simple or complex partial and secondarily generalised) or generalised onset tonic-clonic seizures (with or without other generalised seizure types).$\backslash$n$\backslash$nSEARCH METHODS: We searched the following databases up to September 2014: the Cochrane Epilepsy Group Specialized Register, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) in the Cochrane Library (2014, Issue 8), MEDLINE (from 1946), Scopus (from 1823), the US National Institutes of Health Ongoing Trials Register (www.clinicaltrials.gov), and the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry platform (WHO ICTRP). We handsearched relevant journals and contacted pharmaceutical companies, original trial investigators, and experts in the field.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nSELECTION CRITERIA: Randomised controlled trials in children or adults with partial onset seizures or generalised onset tonic-clonic seizures with a comparison of CBZ monotherapy versus PB monotherapy.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nDATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: This was an individual participant data (IPD) review. Our primary outcome was 'Time to withdrawal of allocated treatment', and our secondary outcomes were 'Time to 12-month remission', 'Time to 6-month remission', and 'Time to first seizure postrandomisation'. We used Cox proportional hazards regression models to obtain study-specific estimates of hazard ratios (HRs) with 95{\%} confidence intervals (CIs), with the generic inverse variance method used to obtain the overall pooled HR and 95{\%} CI.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nMAIN RESULTS: Individual participant data were available for 836 participants out of 1455 eligible individuals from 6 out of 13 trials, 57{\%} of the potential data. For remission outcomes, HR {\textgreater} 1 indicated an advantage for PB, and for first seizure and withdrawal outcomes, HR {\textgreater} 1 indicated an advantage for CBZ.The main overall results (pooled HR adjusted for seizure type, 95{\%} CI) were HR 1.50 for time to withdrawal of allocated treatment (95{\%} CI 1.15 to 1.95, P = 0.003); HR 0.93 for time to 12-month remission (95{\%} CI 0.72 to 1.20, P = 0.57); HR 0.99 for time to 6-month remission (95{\%} CI 0.80 to 1.23, P = 0.95); and HR 0.87 for time to first seizure (95{\%} CI 0.72 to 1.06, P = 0.18). Results suggest an advantage for CBZ over PB in terms of time to treatment withdrawal and no statistically significant evidence between the drugs for the other outcomes. We found evidence of a statistically significant interaction between treatment effect and seizure type for time to first seizure recurrence (Chi² test for subgroup differences P = 0.03), where PB was favoured for partial onset seizures (HR 0.76, 95{\%} CI 0.60 to 0.96, P = 0.02) and CBZ was favoured for generalised onset seizures (HR 1.23, 95{\%} CI 0.88 to 1.77, P = 0.27). However, methodological quality of the included studies was variable, with 10 out of the 13 included studies (4 out of 6 studies contributing IPD) judged as high risk of bias for at least 1 methodological aspect, leading to variable individual study results and therefore heterogeneity in the analyses of this review. We conducted sensitivity analyses to examine the impact of poor methodological aspects where possible.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nAUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: Overall, we found evidence suggestive of an advantage for CBZ in terms of drug effectiveness compared with PB (retention of the drug in terms of seizure control and adverse events) and evidence of an association between treatment effect and seizure type for time to first seizure recurrence (PB favoured for partial seizures and CBZ favoured for generalised seizures). Given the varying quality of studies included in this review and the impact of poor methodological quality on individual study results (and therefore variability (heterogeneity) present in the analysis within this review), we recommend caution when interpreting the results of this review and do not recommend that the results of this review alone should be used in choosing between CBZ and PB. We recommend that future trials should be designed to the highest quality possible with considerations for allocation concealment and masking, choice of population, choice of outcomes and analysis, and presentation of results.},

@article{Lewington2002,
abstract = {Background: The age-specific relevance of blood pressure to cause-specific mortality is best assessed by collaborative meta-analysis of individual participant data from the separate prospective studies. Methods: Information was obtained on each of one million adults with no previous vascular disease recorded at baseline in 61 prospective observational studies of blood pressure and mortality. During 12??7 million person-years at risk, there were about 56 000 vascular deaths (12 000 stroke, 34 000 ischaemic heart disease [IHD], 10 000 other vascular) and 66 000 other deaths at ages 40-89 years. Meta-analyses, involving "time-dependent" correction for regression dilution, related mortality during each decade of age at death to the estimated usual blood pressure at the start of that decade. Findings: Within each decade of age at death, the proportional difference in the risk of vascular death associated with a given absolute difference in usual blood pressure is about the same down to at least 115 mm Hg usual systolic blood pressure (SBP) and 75 mm Hg usual diastolic blood pressure (DBP), below which there is little evidence. At ages 40-69 years, each difference of 20 mm Hg usual SBP (or, approximately equivalently, 10 mm Hg usual DBP) is associated with more than a twofold difference in the stroke death rate, and with twofold differences in the death rates from IHD and from other vascular causes. All of these proportional differences in vascular mortality are about half as extreme at ages 80-89 years as at ages 40-49 years, but the annual absolute differences in risk are greater in old age. The age-specific associations are similar for men and women, and for cerebral haemorrhage and cerebral ischaemia. For predicting vascular mortality from a single blood pressure measurement, the average of SBP and DBP is slightly more informative than either alone, and pulse pressure is much less informative. Interpretation: Throughout middle and old age, usual blood pressure is strongly and directly related to vascular (and overall) mortality, without any evidence of a threshold down to at least 115/75 mm Hg.},

abstract = {Funnel plots are a visual tool for investigating publication and other bias in meta-analysis. They are simple scatterplots of the treatment effects esti- mated from individual studies (horizontal axis) against a measure of study size (vertical axis). The name “funnel plot” is based on the precision in the estima- tion of the underlying treatment effect increasing as the sample size of component studies increases. Therefore, in the absence of bias, results from small studies will scatter widely at the bottom of the graph, with the spread narrowing among larger studies. Publication bias (the association of publication probability with the statistical significance of study results) may lead to asymmetrical funnel plots. It is, however, important to realize that publication bias is only one of a number of possible causes of funnel-plot asymmetry—funnel plots should be seen as a generic means of examining small study effects (the tendency for the smaller studies in a meta-analysis to show larger treatment effects) rather than a tool to diagnose specific types of bias. This article introduces the metafunnel command, which produces funnel plots in Stata. In accordance with published recommendations, standard error is used as the measure of study size. Treatment effects expressed as ratio measures (for example risk ratios or odds ratios) may be plotted on a log scale.},

abstract = {OBJECTIVE: Funnel plots (plots of effect estimates against sample size) may be useful to detect bias in meta-analyses that were later contradicted by large trials. We examined whether a simple test of asymmetry of funnel plots predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared to large trials, and we assessed the prevalence of bias in published meta-analyses.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nDESIGN: Medline search to identify pairs consisting of a meta-analysis and a single large trial (concordance of results was assumed if effects were in the same direction and the meta-analytic estimate was within 30{\%} of the trial); analysis of funnel plots from 37 meta-analyses identified from a hand search of four leading general medicine journals 1993-6 and 38 meta-analyses from the second 1996 issue of the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nMAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Degree of funnel plot asymmetry as measured by the intercept from regression of standard normal deviates against precision.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nRESULTS: In the eight pairs of meta-analysis and large trial that were identified (five from cardiovascular medicine, one from diabetic medicine, one from geriatric medicine, one from perinatal medicine) there were four concordant and four discordant pairs. In all cases discordance was due to meta-analyses showing larger effects. Funnel plot asymmetry was present in three out of four discordant pairs but in none of concordant pairs. In 14 (38{\%}) journal meta-analyses and 5 (13{\%}) Cochrane reviews, funnel plot asymmetry indicated that there was bias.$\backslash$n$\backslash$nCONCLUSIONS: A simple analysis of funnel plots provides a useful test for the likely presence of bias in meta-analyses, but as the capacity to detect bias will be limited when meta-analyses are based on a limited number of small trials the results from such analyses should be treated with considerable caution.},

abstract = {Funnel plots are commonly used to investigate publication and related biases in meta$\backslash$endashanalysis. Although asymmetry in the appearance of a funnel plot is often interpreted as being caused by publication bias, in reality the asymmetry could be due to other factors that cause systematic differences in the results of large and small studies, for example, confounding factors such as differential study quality. Funnel plots can be enhanced by adding contours of statistical significance to aid in interpreting the funnel plot. If studies appear to be missing in areas of low statistical significance, then it is possible that the asymmetry is due to publication bias. If studies appear to be missing in areas of high statistical significance, then publication bias is a less likely cause of the funnel asymmetry. It is proposed that this enhancement to funnel plots should be used routinely for meta$\backslash$endashanalyses where it is possible that results could be suppressed on the basis of their statistical significance."},

These choices may refer to, for example, estimator of effect, model for analysis (fixed effects or random effects), or the treatment of varying study quality. The choices made can affect the results of the analysis. Every meta-analysis should therefore include a sensitivity analysis, designed to probe how choices made as part of the analysis affect its results. This paper describes a systematic approach to sensitivity analysis in meta-analyses. An index intended to summarize the results of a sensitivity analysis, the robustness score, is developed. The robustness score varies from 0 to 1. A value of 1 indicates that the results of a meta-analysis are robust; they are not at all affected by the choices made by the analyst. It is proposed that every meta-analysis include a sensitivity analysis for (a) the potential presence of publication bias, (b) the choice of estimator of effect (if relevant), (c) the possible presence of outlier bias ...},

In high-order, nonlinear systems, with multiple loops and both positive and negative feedback, are found the modes of behavior which have been so puzzling in management and economics. The time is at hand when more sharply defined concepts and principles can form a core through management education to interrelate the functional areas and to move from static to dynamic understanding of systems. To do so should help close the gap between what the management school can now teach and what the manager must understand if he is to successfully cope with the increasing complexity of our society.},

@article{Sharaby2012,
abstract = {Integrated, high quality, and accessible transit systems are essential for attracting travelers to shift from private to public. This change in personal behavior is desired in order to reduce congestion and air pollutant emissions in city centers. This paper focuses on evaluating the impact of fare integration on transit ridership and travel behavior, using the city of Haifa, Israel, as a case study. The city's new, integrated, fare policy changed the historically complex per-boarding system to a simple five-zone fare system with free transfers, reducing fares for many passengers. Using fare-box data, on-board surveys and travel-behavior model estimation, we show that the new fare policy managed to negate the downward trend in transit ridership. Fare-box data showed a significant increase in single ticket sales of up to 25{\%} over the first year following the launch of the reform; the survey's results pointed to an increase of 7.7{\%} in passenger trips and 18.6{\%} in boarding. The number of passenger boarding per trip increased from 1.38 to 1.52, implying that people were utilizing the free transfer option and enjoying a wider range of routes. The model results showed that fare reduction was a significant factor in attracting transit users, and that the public transport reform had three important contributions: first, it encouraged travelers to shift from private cars or taxi to buses; second, it created new trips, offering more opportunities for activity participation; and third, it increased travel options by allowing travelers to choose a better route. ?? 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Despite the economic significance of the theme park industry and the huge investments needed to set up new attractions, no marketing models exist to guide these investment decisions. This study addresses this gap in the literature by estimating a response model for theme park attendance. The model not only determines the contribution of each attraction to attendance, but also how this contribution is distributed within and across years. The model accommodates saturation effects, which imply that the impact of a new attraction is smaller if similar attractions are already present. It also captures reinforcement effects, meaning that a new attraction may reinforce the drawing power of similar extant attractions, especially when these were introduced recently. The model is calibrated on 25 years of weekly attendance data from the Efteling, a leading European theme park. Our return on investment calculations show that it is more profitable to invest in multiple smaller attractions than in one big one. This finding is in remarkable contrast with the current “arms race” in the industry. Furthermore, even though thrill rides tend to be more effective than theme rides, there are conditions under which one should consider to switch to the latter.},

Unfortunately, the command line and text file interfaces these systems employ present unnecessary barriers to their use. We have developed a new free Excel add-in, SolverStudio, that combines the power of modelling languages—including AMPL, GAMS, PuLP, GMPL, and Gurobi's Python environment—with the familiarity and ease of use of Excel. SolverStudio also brings cloud-based optimisation to Excel by providing easy access to the NEOS online solvers, and simulation capabilities via the Python-based SimPy software.

abstract = {The traditional formulation of logit models applied to transport demand assumes a compensatory (indirect) utility function in which the consumers' strategy assumes a trade-off between attributes. Several authors have criticized this approach because it fails to recognize attribute thresholds in consumer behavior, or a more generic domain where such a compensatory strategy is contained. In this paper, a mixed strategy is proposed, which combines the compensatory strategy valid in the interior of the choice domain with cutoff factors that restrain choices to the domain edge. The proposed model combines the multinomial logit model with a binomial logit factor that represents soft cutoffs. This approach extends previous contributions in several ways and allows multiple dimensions for cutoff factors. In addition to considering individual behavior, it introduces system constraints such as capacity and inter-agent interactions (choice externalities). This extension yields a non-linear problem, which is solved by analyzing the fixed point problem. Additionally, a set of evaluation tools, a social utility of the constrained problem, and a measure of the shadow price of each constraint, are proposed. {\textcopyright} 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {Investigation of the 'rationality' of responses to discrete choice experiments (DCEs) has been a theme of research in health economics. Responses have been deleted from DCEs where they have been deemed by researchers to (a) be 'irrational', defined by such studies as failing tests for non-satiation, or (b) represent lexicographic preferences. This paper outlines a number of reasons why deleting responses from DCEs may be inappropriate after first reviewing the theory underpinning rationality, highlighting that the importance placed on rationality depends on the approach to consumer theory to which one ascribes. The aim of this paper is not to suggest that all preferences elicited via DCEs are rational. Instead, it is to suggest a number of reasons why it may not be the case that all preferences labelled as 'irrational' are indeed so. Hence, deleting responses may result in the removal of valid preferences; induce sample selection bias; and reduce the statistical efficiency and power of the estimated choice models. Further, evidence suggests random utility theory may be able to cope with such preferences. Finally, we discuss a number of implications for the design, implementation and interpretation of DCEs and recommend caution regarding the deletion of preferences from stated preference experiments.},

abstract = {Standard preference models in consumer research assume that people weigh and add all attributes of the available options to derive a decision, while there is growing evidence for the use of simplifying heuristics. Recently, a greedoid algorithm has been developed (Yee, Dahan, Hauser{\&}Orlin, 2007; Kohli{\&}Jedidi, 2007) to model lexicographic heuris- tics from preference data. We compare predictive accuracies of the greedoid approach and standard conjoint analysis in an online study with a rating and a ranking task. The lexicographic model derived from the greedoid algorithmwas better at predicting ranking compared to rating data, but overall, it achieved lower predictive accuracy for hold-out data than the compensatory model estimated by conjoint analysis. However, a considerable minority of participants was better predicted by lexicographic strategies. We conclude that the new algorithm will not replace standard tools for analyzing preferences, but can boost the study of situational and individual differences in preferential choice processes.},

abstract = {There is an extensive and growing literature on the design and use of stated choice experiments. Such experiments are generally regarded as the preferred framework within which to collect data to reveal the preferences of individuals in a particular application context. Analysts have developed sophisticated ways of analysing such data, typically using a form of discrete choice model that identifies the marginal (dis)utility associated with each observed attribute linked to an alternative, as well as accounting for sources of preference and scale heterogeneity. There is also a growing literature studying the attribute processing rules (or heuristics) that respondents use as a way of simplifying the task of choosing, for all manner of meaningful reason. We find that there is relatively less effort placed on looking closely at the data defining each choice situation for each respondent, as constructed by the stated choice experiment, and seeing if there exist 'evidential' rules that support in a plausible way, the choice responses. Heuristics investigated in this paper that might aid in our understanding of how choice scenarios are processed, leading to a choice outcome, include the role of dimensional vs. holistic attribute processing, the influence of relative attribute levels, and the revision of the reference alternative as value learning across sequenced choice sets. We find a high level of confidence in the evidence, and identify at least two features of choice set processing, namely value learning and majority of confirming dimensions, that are worthy of future inclusion in the estimation of all choice models. The evidence suggests that there is a great deal of behavioural sense in stated choice responses, for all manner of possible reason.},

abstract = {We have established new values of time (VOTs) and values of travel time reliability (VORs) for use in cost-benefit analysis (CBA) of transport projects in The Netherlands. This was the first national study in The Netherlands (and one of the first world-wide) to investigate these topics empirically in a joint framework. Stated preference (SP) questionnaires were designed for interviewing travellers, where the hypothetical alternatives were described in terms of travel time, travel costs and travel time reliability, the latter being presented to the respondents in the form of five possible travel times having equal probability. For passenger transport, we first collected interviews using an existing internet panel. Additional data collection recruitment was done by asking travellers at petrol stations/service areas, parking garages, stations, bus stops, airports and ports to participate in the survey. One important conclusion is that the SP survey using members of this internet panel leads to substantially lower VOTs than the SP survey with en-route recruitment, probably because of self-selection bias in the internet panel. We estimated discrete choice models in which the values of time differ between trips with different time and costs levels, different time and costs changes offered in the SP, and different observed characteristics of the respondents (e.g. education, income, age, household composition). By using a panel latent class model, we also account for unobserved differences between respondents in the value of time and for repeated measurements/panel effects. The reference values of time and the reference reliability ratios were estimated on the 2011 sample only, but the effect of time and cost level, time and cost changes offered and socio-economic attributes was estimated on both the 2009 and 2011 samples.},

However, it is not known if the imperfectly reversible effects of jet fuel price are a result of asymmetries in the supply side, i.e., asymmetries in cost pass through from fuel prices to air fare, or of demand side behavioral asymmetries whereby people value gains and losses differently. This paper uses US time series data and decomposes air fare and fuel price into three component series to develop an econometric model of air transport demand that is capable of capturing the potential imperfectly reversible relationships and test for the presence or absence of reversibility. We find that air transport demand shows asymmetry with respect to air fare, indicating potential imperfect reversibility in consumer behavior. We also find evidence of asymmetry and hysteresis in cost pass-through from jet fuel prices to air fare, showing rapid increases in airfare when fuel prices increases but a slower response in the opposite direction.},

The case of Tallinn is a full-scale, real-world experiment that provides a unique opportunity for investigating the impacts of FFPT policy.

The results show that the effect of gasoline price, albeit small, is significant, extends over a year and mainly derives from its rise not fall. Fare is most influential both in terms of short-term and long-term elasticities and its effect is largely contributed by fare increases. The combination of these two results points to the policy of increasing gasoline price over decreasing transit fare to encourage ridership. On the relationship between service and fare, the results support the demand follows supply' hypothesis. The results also provide empirical evidence that ridership responds differentially between a rise and a fall in gasoline price or transit fare.},

abstract = {With the growing reliance on Stated Choice (SC) data, researchers are increasingly interested in understanding how respondents process the information presented to them in such surveys. Specifically, it has been argued that some respondents may simplify the choice tasks by consistently ignoring one or more of the attributes describing the alternatives, and direct questions put to respondents after the completion of SC surveys support this hypothesis. However, in the general context of issues with response quality in SC data, there are certainly grounds for questioning the reliability of stated attribute processing strategies. In this paper, we take a different approach by attempting to infer attribute processing strategies through the analysis of respondent-specific coefficient distributions obtained through conditioning on observed choices. Our results suggest that a share of respondents do indeed ignore a subset of explanatory variables. However, there is also some evidence that the inferred attribute processing strategies are not necessarily consistent with the stated attribute processing strategies. Additionally, there is some evidence that respondents who claim to have ignored a certain attribute may simply have assigned it lesser importance. The results produced by the inferring approach not only lead to slightly better fit but also more consistent results. {\textcopyright} 2009 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {There is a growing interest in traveller behaviour research to explore alternative information processing strategies (often referred to as heuristics or rules) adopted by individuals when assessing packages of attributes describing alternatives in a choice set, and making a choice. One popular attribute processing rule relates to attributes not being considered (i.e., being ignored), for all manner of reasons, referred to in the small but growing literature as attribute non-attendance or non-preservation. Researchers have used a mixture of methods to study the role of attribute non-attendance, including supplementary questions on whether each attribute is ignored or not, and methods in which the functional form of the utility expressions defining an alternative can recognise the possibility, up to a probability, of an attribute being ignored. Although supplementary questions are worthy of further consideration, despite the controversy as to the reliability of the response, recent interest has focused on ways to establish the incidence of attribute non-attendance without recourse to such evidence. In this paper we use an existing data set of choice amongst four attributes describing alternative car non-commuting trips, to illustrate the proposed method, and to compare values of travel time savings under each possible combination of non-attendance attributes relative to a model in which all attributes are assumed to be fully attended to. The paper reveals a major concern with the way that attribute levels and ranges are selected in the design of choice experiments, which can induce non-attendance situations where willingness to pay estimates cannot be obtained.},

abstract = {With the growing interest in the topic of attribute non-attendance, there is now widespread use of latent class (LC) structures aimed at capturing such behaviour, across a number of different fields. Specifically, these studies rely on a confirmatory LC model, using two separate values for each coefficient, one of which is fixed to zero while the other is estimated, and then use the obtained class probabilities as an indication of the degree of attribute non-attendance. In the present paper, we argue that this approach is in fact misguided, and that the results are likely to be affected by confounding with regular taste heterogeneity. We contrast the confirmatory model with an exploratory LC structure in which the values in both classes are estimated. We also put forward a combined latent class mixed logit model (LC-MMNL) which allows jointly for attribute non-attendance and for continuous taste heterogeneity. Across three separate case studies, the exploratory LC model clearly rejects the confirmatory LC approach and suggests that rates of non-attendance may be much lower than what is suggested by the standard model, or even zero. The combined LC-MMNL model similarly produces significant improvements in model fit, along with substantial reductions in the implied rate of attribute non-attendance, in some cases even eliminating the phenomena across the sample population. Our results thus call for a reappraisal of the large body of recent work that has implied high rates of attribute non-attendance for some attributes. Finally, we also highlight a number of general issues with attribute non-attendance, in particular relating to the computation of willingness to pay measures.},

abstract = {Individuals processing the information in a stated choice experiment are typically assumed to evaluate each and every attribute offered within and between alternatives, and to choose their most preferred alternative. However, it has always been thought that some attributes are ignored in this process for many reasons, including a coping strategy to handle one's perception of the complexity of the choice task. Nonetheless, analysts typically proceed to estimate discrete choice models as if all attributes have influenced the outcome to some degree. The cognitive processes used to evaluate trade-offs are complex with boundaries often placed on the task to assist the respondent. These boundaries can include prioritising attributes and ignoring specific attributes. In this paper we investigate the implications of bounding the information processing task by attribute elimination through ignoring one or more attributes. Using a sample of car commuters in Sydney we estimate mixed logit models that assume all attributes are candidate contributors, and models that assume certain attributes are ignored, the latter based on supplementary information provided by respondents. We compare the value of travel time savings under the alternative attribute processing regimes. Assuming that all attributes are not ignored and duly processed, leads to estimates of parameters which produce significantly different willingness to pay (WTP) to that obtained when the exclusion rule is invoked.},

@article{Fowkes1991,
abstract = {Revealed Preference(RP) studies based on actual behaviour suffer from a number of statistical problems. Furthermore, RP methods are of little use when the effects of a new or radically altered service need to be considered. As a result, for a case study of demand forecasting for new passenger rail services, a new approach has been developed. Our starting point is to seek what we call Stated Intentions (SI) responses as to the likely usage of a new rail service. However, due to a combination of systematic biases, these responses may be taken to be gross overestimates. A check on the biases of this SI data may be supplied by a Stated Preference (SP) survey. Respondents are asked to make hypothetical choices which are sufficiently complex for there to be little chance of policy bias. It is ensured that choices presented contain useful ‘boundary values,' being the relative valuation for which respondents would be indifferent between two offered alternatives. It is, however, crucial to ensure that the SP survey is simple enough for respondents to manage, since excessive error variability in the responses will cause the calibrated coefficients to be rescaled, presenting problems for forecasting. From the SP surveys, it is estimated that SI data overstates usage of new rail services by around 50{\%}, even if it is assumed that nonrespondents to the SI survey are nonusers. It is concluded that an SI/SP approach can potentially provide accurate forecasts, but there are a number of practical constraints that may prevent this.},

This summary focuses on those recommendations directed towards improving the efficiency, service quality and sustainability of mass public transportation systems in major cities in the developing world and that could be implemented in a short term (within two years). Three broad dimensions of public transit are considered: competition and regulation; investment, financing, fares and subsidies; and the operation and use of infrastructure, design, inspection and control. Although the study grew out of the needs and characteristics of a city such as Santiago (Chile), and of the virtues and deficiencies of Transantiago, much of the analyses and recommendations could be adopted and implemented in the major cities of developed countries in Europe, North America and Asia.},

This strong collinearity is particularly problematic in linear or log-linear models, commonly used for elasticity estimation, and in a case study of Santiago, Chile, robust results with such specifications proved elusive. This paper presents a method based on discrete choice models to estimate the elasticities in an integrated fare system that overcomes these econometric problems, generating results that are both robust and consistent with those reported in the literature.

abstract = {Subsidy policies on public urban transport have been adopted ubiquitously. In both developed and developing countries, subsidies are implemented to make transport more affordable. Despite their widespread implementation, there are virtually no quantitative assessments of their distributional incidence, making it impossible to determine if these instruments are pro-poor. This paper reviews the arguments used to justify subsidy policies in public urban transport. Using different tools to quantitatively evaluate the incidence and distributive impacts of subsidy policy options, the paper analyzes the findings of a series of research papers that study urban public transport subsidy policies in developed and developing countries. The available evidence indicates that current public urban transport subsidy policies do not make the poorest better off. Supply-side subsidies are, for the most part, neutral or regressive; while demand-side subsidies perform better—although many of them do not improve income distribution. Considering that the policy objective is to improve the welfare of the poorest, it is imperative to move away from supply-side subsidies towards demandside subsidies and to integrate transport social concerns into wider poverty alleviation efforts, which include the possibility of channeling subsidies through monetary transfer systems or through other transfer instruments (food subsidies, health services and education for the poor). The general conclusion of the paper is that more effort should be devoted to improve the targeting properties of public urban transport subsidies using means-testing procedures to ensure a more pro-poor incidence of subsidies.},

@article{Borjesson2012,
abstract = {Recent methodological advances in discrete choice analysis in combination with certain stated choice experiments have allowed researchers to check empirically the identification of the distribution of latent variables such as the value of travel time (VTT). Lack of identification is likely to be common and the consequences are severe. E.g., the Danish value of time study found the 15{\%} right tail of the VTT distribution to be unidentified, making it impossible to estimate the mean VTT without resorting to strong assumptions with equally strong impact on the resulting estimate. This paper analyses data generated from a similar choice experiment undertaken in Sweden during 2007-2008 in which the range of trade-off values between time and money was significantly increased relative to the Danish experiment. The results show that this change allowed empirical identification of effectively the entire VTT distribution. In addition to informing the design of future choice experiments, the results are also of interest as a validity test of the stated choice methodology. Failure in identifying the right tail of the VTT would have made it difficult to maintain that respondents' behaviour is consistent with utility maximisation in the sense intended by the experimenter. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

abstract = {Many econometric models exist that may be used to analyse choice data. These, however, are all based on specific assumptions made by the analyst in relation to how individual respondents make their choices. In practice, though, it may be difficult to satisfy these assumptions. Accepting that some respondents may exhibit alternative behaviour, the question becomes what impact 'non-conformist' behaviour may have on estimated models. The present paper presents an in-depth analysis using simulated data to study the impact of such behaviour on model estimates.},

abstract = {This paper derives empirically tractable formulas for the welfare effects of fare adjustments in passenger peak and off-peak rail and bus transit, and for optimal pricing of those services. The formulas account for congestion, pollution, accident externalities, scale economies, and agency adjustment of transit service offerings. We apply them using parameter values for Washington (DC), Los Angeles, and London. The results support the efficiency of the large current fare subsidies; even starting with fares at 50 percent of operating costs, incremental fare reductions are welfare improving in almost all cases. These findings are robust to alternative assumptions and parameters.},

abstract = {Bicycle-sharing programs are a new trend in urban transportation. The main difference of a bicycle-sharing program with a regular bicycle rental is that is possible to get a bicycle in one station and return it in any other station. There are many models of bicycle sharing, each model with its pros and cons. This study analyzes the bicycle-sharing models in order to build a proposal of a bicycle-sharing program suitable for Brazilian median cities. The study begins with an overview of bicycle transportation, followed by the analysis of different bicycle-sharing programs. The last chapter formulates a proposal of a bicycle-sharing program suitable for Brazilian median cities. This study uses both quantitative and qualitative methods. The analysis includes a case study on the bicycle-sharing program in Stockholm. This case study is based on interviews with the manager of the program in the company in charge, and with the responsible official in Stockholm municipality. A questionnaire was moreover handed out to users of the program. This case study is complemented with a questionnaire sent by email to managers of bicycle-sharing programs in some cities around the world, this in order to provide more examples on how bicycle sharing can be organized. Finally, another case study was carried out in a Brazilian median city in order to evaluate the local awareness concerning bicycle transport, and the possibility of implementing a bicycle-sharing program there. A questionnaire was handed out to a sample of the local population and an interview was made with the local transport authority. The analysis of all data results in a proposal for a bicycle-sharing program suitable for the Brazilian context. The proposal comprises the choices of bicycles, stations, equipment related to the hiring process and service vehicle. It includes a complete financial appraisal with the necessary capital for implementing and managing the program. It shows that it is possible to build an affordable bicycle-sharing program adapted to Brazilian median cities. The program will create job opportunities and can contribute to a changed view of bicycle transportation in these cities. The proposal could also be applied in countries with the same characteristics as Brazil.},

abstract = {Fear of bicycle theft and related vandalism discourages bicycle usage. The present study recognizes this problem and aims to understand whether or not users are willing to pay for secured bicycle parking (SBP) in Montreal, Canada by examining the following research questions: 1) Are users willing to incur some of the extra cost of improving bicycle parking infrastructure? 2) Of those willing to pay, what are their common characteristics? and 3) Is there a distinction between those who are willing to pay and those who are able to pay? Results from a bilingual (English/French) online bicycle theft and parking survey provided 1,533 responses about cyclists' willingness to pay for (SBP). Forty-three percent would be willing to pay at least {\$}0.50/day for SBP, and the highest daily amount that some participants are willing to pay is {\$}15.00. Findings from this study demonstrate that cities will benefit from improving their cycling infrastructure by installing SBP facilities and cyclists who state that risk of theft influences their decision to cycle are more likely to pay for SBP. The results show that pricing of SBP facilities can be an option, yet should stay low to ensure that security provided by paid bicycle parking always remain an incentive to use a bicycle.},

@article{DeKeizer2015,
abstract = {Train passengers experience an interchange between trains in their trip as a nuisance. To model this resistance, a penalty is usually added in the calculation of the perceived journey time. For many years, NS and ProRail used a fixed penalty of 10minutes per interchange for rail trips in the Netherlands. This penalty was based on expert-judgement. A stated preference survey in 2011 [De Keizer et al., 2012, customer resistance to interchanges, ETC Glasgow] demonstrates that customers experience a much higher penalty than 10minutes. The penalty also strongly differs with characteristics of their transfer, like transfer time, frequency of the connecting service and whether the transfer is cross platform or not. Recently, the SP data have been re-analyzed, based on the recommendations of an audit on the 2011 work. This new analysis shows that a reference penalty is 23minutes (including 2minutes transfer time), which is more than twice as high as the current value. However, under certain optimal circumstances, the penalty can be lower than 14minutes. Comparing the findings with earlier results and findings from international literature shows a similar dependence between punctuality, the connection time and the frequency of the connecting train in all studies. The added value of the new survey is a more detailed analysis of the importance of the various aspects of interchanges between trains. The outcomes of the new analysis have been compared with real-world data. This comparison showed that using the new values led to a much better fit with reality. For example, growth rates of various direct connections to Schiphol Airport were 30-100{\%} higher in reality than had been predicted with the fixed 10minutes penalty. Applying the new differentiated penalty led to a forecast with a maximum deviation of only 15{\%} compared with the real-world figures.},

abstract = {Urban passenger transport has experienced major change in many developing countries in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, as well as in countries of political and/or economic transition in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and China. Such changes have included planned market opening to private operators and new entrants; unplanned market opening by the entry of unlicensed operators; privatization and other changes to the ownership base of large public-sector transport companies; emergence of large-scale minibus and paratransit; and national and urban policies and programs to upgrade the transport supply and quality. This paper presents a framework to understand regulatory and institutional changes in urban bus services in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, the CIS, and China. The framework identifies three types of changes: (i) changes in the role of the regulator and market structure; (ii) changes in the structure of the operator and of private sector participation; and (iii) changes in the transport supply. The paper then identifies critical factors leading to change in the urban transport sector, factors that can be identified with successful outcomes, and issues associated with the development of the minibus, paratransit, and the informal sector that have played major roles in the urban transport sector of developing countries and countries in transition.},

The pattern of response times is interpreted as an indicator of the cognitive processes employed by the respondents when making their choices. We find clear signs of reference-dependence in response times in the form of a strong gain–loss asymmetry. Moreover, different patterns of response times for travel time and travel cost indicate that these attributes are processed in different ways by respondents. This may be of particular relevance for choice experiments in the transportation field, where the travel time attribute is central.},

abstract = {Web surveys are becoming increasingly popular in survey research including stated preference surveys. Compared with face-to-face, telephone and mail surveys, web surveys may contain a different and new source of measurement error and bias: the type of device that respondents use to answer the survey questions. This is the first study that tests whether the use of mobile devices, tablets or smartphones, affects survey characteristics and stated preferences in a web-based choice experiment. The web survey on expanding renewable energy production in Germany was carried out with 3182 respondents, of which 12{\%} used a mobile device. Propensity score matching is used to account for selection bias in the use of mobile devices for survey completion. We find that mobile device users spent more time than desktop/laptop users to answer the survey. Yet, desktop/laptop users and mobile device users do not differ in acquiescence tendency as an indicator of extreme response patterns. For mobile device users only, we find a negative correlation between screen size and interview length and a positive correlation between screen size and acquiescence tendency. In the choice experiment data, we do not find significant differences in the tendency to choose the status quo option and scale between both subsamples. However, some of the estimates of implicit prices differ, albeit not in a unidirectional fashion. Model results for mobile device users indicate a U-shaped relationship between error variance and screen size. Together, the results suggest that using mobile devices is not detrimental to survey quality.},

@article{Wardman2012a,
abstract = {The value of travel time savings in part depends upon the disutility of the travel time that is saved and partly on the use to which the time saved is put. It has long been recognised that the disutility of the time spent travelling also depends upon a wide range of factors such as the journey length or the effort, comfort and safety associated with travelling.Hence we might expect the value of motorists' travel time to vary with the traffic conditions as represented by the degree of congestion, in part to reflect the more difficult driving environment when there are more vehicles, but also a higher sense of frustration, similar to that associated with waiting time and contributing to its premium valuation.In this context, and despite the predominance of car travel in developed countries, the empirical evidence specifically relating to car values of travel time tends to fail to distinguish between different types of time according to the degree of congestion. Thus we are often left unclear as to precisely what type of time has been valued. Moreover, when a distinction is made, it tends to be into a simple dichotomy of congested and uncongested traffic.This paper provides new evidence on the variation in the valuation of motorists' travel time savings across a finer gradation of types of time than has been hitherto attempted. This is obtained from the same Stated Choice exercise conducted in the United Kingdom and the United States. The paper also provides an extensive account of previous research into how congestion impacts on motorists' values of time. {\textcopyright} 2011 Elsevier Ltd.},

@article{Caussade2005,
abstract = {This paper explores the complexity and cognitive burden associated to stated choice experiments. Complexity is analysed in terms of design dimensions such as the number of available alternatives, the number of attributes used to define these alternatives, the number of levels for those attributes, the range of attribute levels and the number of choice situations presented to each respondent. These design dimensions were systematically varied according to an experimental design in a first design hierarchy; the second hierarchy comprised the attributes of each alternative (travel times and travel cost components). To study the complexity of the experiment we specified a heteroskedastic logit model with the scale parameter specified as a function of the design dimensions. This allowed us to separate the effects of choice complexity from the marginal utility estimates. Our results show that all five design dimensions affect the choice variance, or put it another way, they affect choice consistency. However, we did not find systematic effects on willingness-to-pay estimates. {\textcopyright} 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {Stated choice (SC) experiments represent the dominant data paradigm in the study of behavioral responses of individuals, households as well as other organizations, yet in the past little has been known about the sample size requirements for models estimated from such data. Traditional orthogonal designs and existing sampling theories does not adequately address the issue and hence researchers have had to resort to simple rules of thumb or ignore the issue and collect samples of arbitrary size, hoping that the sample is sufficiently large enough to produce reliable parameter estimates, or are forced to make assumptions about the data that are unlikely to hold in practice. In this paper, we demonstrate how a recently proposed sample size computation can be used to generate so-called S-efficient designs using prior parameter values to estimate panel mixed multinomial logit models. Sample size requirements for such designs in SC studies are investigated. In a numerical case study is shown that a D-efficient and even more an S-efficient design require a (much) smaller sample size than a random orthogonal design in order to estimate all parameters at the level of statistical significance. Furthermore, it is shown that wide level range has a significant positive influence on the efficiency of the design and therefore on the reliability of the parameter estimates.},

abstract = {From Publishers Weekly Irrational behavior is a part of human nature, but as MIT professor Ariely has discovered in 20 years of researching behavioral economics, people tend to behave irrationally in a predictable fashion. Drawing on psychology and economics, behavioral economics can show us why cautious people make poor decisions about sex when aroused, why patients get greater relief from a more expensive drug over its cheaper counterpart and why honest people may steal office supplies or communal food, but not money. According to Ariely, our understanding of economics, now based on the assumption of a rational subject, should, in fact, be based on our systematic, unsurprising irrationality. Ariely argues that greater understanding of previously ignored or misunderstood forces (emotions, relativity and social norms) that influence our economic behavior brings a variety of opportunities for reexamining individual motivation and consumer choice, as well as economic and educational policy. Ariely's intelligent, exuberant style and thought-provoking arguments make for a fascinating, eye-opening read. (Feb.) Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

@article{Andrews2012,
abstract = {Since 2008 most older people in England have benefitted from unlimited area-wide free travel by bus after the morning peak period. The official policy rhetoric supporting implementation of the measure drew significantly upon the need to reduce social exclusion amongst older people. However, despite a substantial increase in the number of concessionary journeys in England and the associated cost liabilities for local authorities and possibly also operators, there is currently only limited understanding of the wide ranging effects on bus use of providing a free pass, and in particular to whom benefits from the policy accrue. In part this circumstance results from a methodological focus by evaluation studies hitherto that have emphasised aggregate-level data, often at the expense of the very rich contextual information about how the individual benefits from using a pass. This paper presents insights into the perceptions, motivations and decisions relating to use of bus passes, highlighting the existence of both tangible and intangible benefits which arise. It offers a fresh insight into previously undefined uses and benefits derived from possessing and using a concessionary bus pass. The paper concludes by noting possible policy implications of the research in the context of the UK‟s ageing population and for other international contexts where the transport intervention of free bus travel is being considered.},

@inproceedings{Swanson1998,
abstract = {This study was designed to seek evidence for the validity of Stated Preference, but deliberately chose to look outside the field of transport, at: (1) Conjoint research in general market research. Opportunities for validating SP work in transport are limited and we expected there should be more scope in general market research where the range of applications and pool of experience is much broader; and (2) Experimental economics and psychology. Our interest here derived from the conviction that SP is concerned with understanding and modelling how people make decisions and choices, and SP practice will not improve without better understanding of these processes. It was found that there is little more hard evidence concerning the predictive validity of conjoint than there is for SP, but an extensive review of practice showed there are important ideas which could profitably be adapted from conjoint to improve SP practice, including: (a) internal validity checks; (b) simpler and more informative methods of analysis; and (c) a new goodness of fit test.

@misc{Axhausen2008,
abstract = {This paper presents the findings of a study looking into the valuation of travel time savings (VTTS) in Switzerland, across modes as well as across purpose groups. The study makes several departures from the usual practice in VTTS studies, with the main one being a direct representation of the income and distance elasticity of the VTTS measures. Here, important gains in model performance and significantly different results are obtained through this approach. Additionally, the analysis shows that the estimation of robust coefficients for congested car travel time is hampered by the low share of congested time in the overall travel time, and the use of an additional rate-of-congestion coefficient, in addition to a generic car travel time coefficient, is preferable. Finally, the analysis demonstrates that the population mean of the indicators calculated is quite different from the sample means and presents methods to calculate those, along with the associated variances. These variances are of great interest as they allow the generation of confidence intervals, which can be extremely useful in cost-benefit analyses.},

@article{Borjesson2012a,
abstract = {Transport infrastructure is long-term and in appraisal it is necessary to value travel time savings for future years. This requires knowing how the value of time (VTT) will develop over time as incomes grow. This paper investigates if the cross-sectional income elasticity of the VTT is equal to inter-temporal income elasticity. The study is based on two identical stated choice experiments conducted with a 13year interval. Results indicate that the relationship between income and the VTT in the cross-section has remained unchanged over time. As a consequence, the inter-temporal income elasticity of the VTT can be predicted based on cross-sectional income elasticity. However, the income elasticity of the VTT is not a constant but increases with income. For this reason, the average income elasticity of the VTT in the cross-sections has increased between the two survey years and can be expected to increase further over time.},

abstract = {Are judicial rulings based solely on laws and facts? Legal formalism holds that judges apply legal reasons to the facts of a case in a rational, mechanical, and deliberative manner. In contrast, legal realists argue that the rational application of legal reasons does not sufficiently explain the decisions of judges and that psychological, political, and social factors influence judicial rulings. We test the common caricature of realism that justice is "what the judge ate for breakfast" in sequential parole decisions made by experienced judges. We record the judges' two daily food breaks, which result in segmenting the deliberations of the day into three distinct "decision sessions." We find that the percentage of favorable rulings drops gradually from ≈ 65{\%} to nearly zero within each decision session and returns abruptly to ≈ 65{\%} after a break. Our findings suggest that judicial rulings can be swayed by extraneous variables that should have no bearing on legal decisions.},

@article{DeLangen2012,
abstract = {L ong term projections of cargo throughput are indispensable for port development plans. Although commodity flow projections are useful for governments, port authorities, terminal operating companies and port users, scientific research on commodity flow projections for ports is limited. Existing studies generally use econometric models that assume stable relationships between growth of port throughput and such variables as GDP growth and trade growth. This paper presents a method that was developed as part of the Port Vision 2030 project of Port of Rotterdam Authority. The method combines a model with expert judgement and commodity specific research. This combination enables incorporating disruptions of past growth patterns. The contribution of this paper is the description of this method, its application to the volumes in 2030 of all major commodities handled in the Hamburg - Le Havre range, with four different scenarios, while most studies deal with a few commodities in one port, and often for a shorter period and with less scenarios. The results show that in all scenarios, total throughput is expected to rise, although in three scenarios not as fast as in the previous two decades. Furthermore, intermediates and container flows are expected to continue to grow, while throughput of raw materials (iron ore, crude oil) may decline.

Where available, we compare and discuss actual traffic levels and forecasts, revealing the sizeable gap or ?error? in forecasts, especially during the first year of operation. Ordinary least squares regression and panel random effects regression models are developed to identify potential sources of explanation of differences in error forecasts between the Australian toll roads at various points post the opening date. A separate analysis of a sample of toll roads in the USA was also undertaken that supports the main findings from the Australian toll road network. Key influences on errors in forecasts are the capacity of a toll road, the elapsed time that the toll road has been in place, the specific period of time in which a tolled road is introduced into the network (which influences the complexity of route options including multiple tolled routes and hence toll saturation), the length of the tolled route, the presence of cash payment and the charging regime (i.e. fixed vs. distance?based or variable user tolls).

abstract = {In recent years we have seen important extensions of logit models in behavioural research such as incorporation of preference and scale heterogeneity, attribute processing heuristics, and estimation of willingness to pay (WTP) in WTP space. With rare exception, however, a non-linear treatment of the parameter set to allow for behavioural reality, such as embedded risk attitude and perceptual conditioning of occurrence probabilities attached to specific attributes, is absent. This is especially relevant to the recent focus in travel behaviour research on identifying the willingness to pay for reduced travel time variability, which is the source of estimates of the value of trip reliability that has been shown to take on an increasingly important role in project appraisal. This paper incorporates, in a generalised non-linear (in parameters) logit model, alternative functional forms for perceptual conditioning (known as probability weighting) and risk attitude in the utility function to account for travel time variability, and then derives an empirical estimate of the willingness to pay for trip time variability-embedded travel time savings as an alternative to separate estimates of time savings and trip time reliability. We illustrate the richness of the approach using a stated choice data set for commuter choice between unlabelled attribute packages. Statistically significant risk attitude parameters and parameters underlying decision weights are estimated for multinomial logit and mixed multinomial logit models, along with values of expected travel time savings.},

However, few studies have examined the impact of such systems on occupational injuries or illnesses or on job characteristics related to job strain, which has been linked to hypertension and cardiovascular disease. The studies reviewed provide little evidence to support the hypothesis that lean production "empowers" auto workers. In fact, auto industry studies suggest that lean production creates intensified work pace and demands. Increases in decision authority and skill levels are modest or temporary, whereas decision latitude typically remains low. Thus, such work can be considered to have job strain. In jobs with ergonomic stressors, intensification of labor appears to lead to increases in musculoskeletal disorders. The evidence for adverse health effects remains inconclusive for related new work systems in other industries, such as modular manufacturing or patient-focused care.},

abstract = {The notion of Value of Time (VoT) is a cornerstone of discrete choice based economic appraisal in transportation. Its derivation and interpretation in the context of Random Utility Maximisation (RUM) models with linear-additive utility functions is straightforward and well known. The choice set-composition effects and semi-compensatory behaviour emphasised in the Random Regret Minimisation (RRM) model induces deviations from this basic VoT specification. This paper reviews and provides new insights into the RRM based VoT measure developed by Chorus (2012a). It defines the theoretical properties of the measure using the micro-economic notion of indifference, and provides insights into the limitations of the measure with respect to deriving individual and aggregate welfare measures. Additionally, the representative consumer approach is adopted to derive an alternative VoT measure, which is behaviourally more complete than the Chorus (2012a) measure. Although alleviating some of the restrictions, the measure has its own theoretical disadvantage. The main contribution of the paper can therefore be summarised as the generation of the necessary insights into the extent to which RRM-based VoT measures can be applied for the purpose of economic appraisal.},

A number of sources of systematic variation are identified which have a statistically significant impact on BRT patronage in terms of daily passenger numbers such as fare, frequency, connectivity, pre-board fare collection, and location of with-flow bus lanes and doorways of a bus. In addition to the patronage model, a bus frequency model is estimated to identify the context within which higher levels of service frequency are delivered, notably where there exists higher population density, more trunk lines, the corridor provides bus priority facilities such as priority lanes for many bus routes, and where there is the presence of overtaking lanes at more than half of all stations along the heaviest section of the corridor. The findings offer important insights into features of BRT systems that are positive contributors to growing patronage which should be taken into account in designing and planning BRT systems.},

abstract = {The methods of discrete choice analysis and their applications in the modelling of transportation systems constitute a comparatively new field that has largely evolved over the past 15 years. Since its inception, however, the field has developed rapidly, and this is the first text and reference work to cover the material systematically, bringing together the scattered and often inaccessible results for graduate students and professionals.Discrete Choice Analysis presents these results in such a way that they are fully accessible to the range of students and professionals who are involved in modelling demand and consumer behavior in general or specifically in transportation - whether from the point of view of the design of transit systems, urban and transport economics, public policy, operations research, or systems management and planning.The introductory chapter presents the background of discrete choice analysis and context of transportation demand forecasting. Subsequent chapters cover, among other topics, the theories of individual choice behavior, binary and multinomial choice models, aggregate forecasting techniques, estimation methods, tests used in the process of model development, sampling theory, the nested-logit model, and systems of models.Moshe Ben-Akiva and Steven R.

abstract = {Understanding and predicting the behavior of decision makers when choosing among discrete goods has been one of the most fruitful areas of applied research over the past thirty years. An understanding of individual consumer behavior can lead to significant changes in product or service design, pricing strategy, distribution channel and communication strategy selection, as well as public welfare analysis. This book is a reference work dealing with the study and prediction of consumer choice behavior, concentrating on stated preference (SP) methods. It shows how SP methods can be implemented, from experimental design to econometric modeling. The book also presents an update of econometric approaches to choice modeling.},

abstract = {Traditionally estimation of travel demand models has relied on revealed preference (RP) data which arc basal on actual market choices made in observable siwaticms. However, there has been an awakening interest in the use of stated preference (SP) data that are respondent's expressed preferences to hypothetical choice situations. For model estimation, SP surveys have the following advantages i) choice set can be prespecified; ii) range of attributes can be extended; {\"{u}}i) multicollinearity among attributes can be avoided iv) atmbutes that are nos easily qusntified, such as safety, reliability, and availability, can be incorporated; and y) attributes are measured without errors. Despite these advantages. SP data have not been widely used in model estimation due to uncertain reliability of the elicited preference information under hypothetical scenarios. The objective of this thesis is to develop methodologies for incorporating SP data in travel demand analysis with explicit considerations of the unknown reliability of SP data. In order to exploit advantages of bosh RP and SP data, a methodology for combined estimation with RP and SP daca is developed. In the proposed method the model that represents market behavior or RP data and the model that generates SP data are simultaneously estimated from RP and SP data. Accuracy of parameter estimates in the RP model can be gained by sharing some of its parameters with the SP model, while potential i' ases and errors specific to SP data are explicitly considered in the SP model. Two case studies demonstrated effectiveness and practicality of this methodology. For example, the parameter of travel noie that was insignificant in the separate estimation of the RP model was successfully estimated by this combined estimation method. Alternative estimators of discrete choice models for ranking data are also proposed. These explicitly consider the potential reliability problems in ranking data. An empirical analysis showed that decision protocols and reliability of preference information significantly vary according to the level of the rank. An srrategy of pooling information from different depth of ranking is proposed. A methodology for incorporating other psychometric data such as perceptual and attitudinal indicators is introduced. The proposed approach uses psychometric data as observable indicators of underlying latent variables and constructs a system of linear structural and measurement equations to identify these latent variables. The integrated system, composed of these linear equations and a discrete chrice model, can be practically estimated by a two stage methai An empirical analysis support. 4 the methodology. Lastly, alternative strategies for explicit modeling of taste heterogeneity are compared using simulated ranking data by che Monte Cado method.},

@article{Abrantes2011,
abstract = {Numerous travel demand studies have been carried out over the past five decades, many of which produce estimates of the value of travel time. This includes a rich body of largely unpublished evidence, which can provide valuable insights into the impact of variables such as GDP, travel distance, purpose and mode on this critical parameter for transport modelling and appraisal. The work reported in this paper updates and extends our previous meta-analyses of UK values of time (Wardman, 1998, 2001a, 2004) by adding recent studies and widening the range of explanatory variables included. Our current research covers 226 studies carried out between 1960 and 2008, yielding a total of 1749 valuations (a 50{\%} increase relative to our previous work) and making this the largest data set of its kind to the best of our knowledge. This is also the most comprehensive study to date of parameters other than in-vehicle time and includes valuations of walk, wait, headway, congested, free flow, late, departure time shift and search time. Exploratory analysis of the data set provides interesting insights into methodological trends in travel demand modelling. For each valuation, over thirty quantitative and categorical variables were recorded and then included in a multivariate regression model to explain variations in the value of time. A large number of statistically significant effects were obtained from this meta-analysis, some of which are in marked contrast with, or not present in, our previous work. One finding that stands out is that the estimated elasticity of the value of time with respect to GDP per capita is 0.9 and highly significant, a much closer correspondence to the widely used convention of a unit income elasticity over time than we have previously obtained. The ratio between walk and wait time and in-vehicle time was found to be substantially lower than the commonly used value of two. We also found large and significant differences between the results from studies based on different types of Stated Preference survey presentation. Other important effects include variations by mode used, mode valued, travel purpose, attribute type and distance. It is envisaged that the results are of direct relevance in the British context, as inputs to appraisal or for benchmarking, whilst the methodological implications are of broader interest and the results, in terms of time equivalents and variations in values of time, can be transferred to other contexts.},

@article{Hess2005,
abstract = {In this paper, we discuss some of the issues that arise with the computation of the implied value of travel-time savings in the case of discrete choice models allowing for random taste heterogeneity. We specifically look at the case of models producing a non-zero probability of positive travel-time coefficients, and discuss the consistency of such estimates with theories of rational economic behaviour. We then describe how the presence of unobserved travel-experience attributes or conjoint activities can bias the estimation of the travel-time coefficient, and can lead to false conclusions with regards to the existence of negative valuations of travel-time savings. We note that while it is important not to interpret such estimates as travel-time coefficients per se, it is nevertheless similarly important to allow such effects to manifest themselves; as such, the use of distributions with fixed bounds is inappropriate. On the other hand, the use of unbounded distributions can lead to further problems, as their shape (especially in the case of symmetrical distributions) can falsely imply the presence of positive estimates. We note that a preferable solution is to use bounded distributions where the bounds are estimated from the data during model calibration. This allows for the effects of data impurities or model misspecifications to manifest themselves, while reducing the risk of bias as a result of the shape of the distribution. To conclude, a brief application is conducted to support the theoretical claims made in the paper.},

abstract = {This research examined travel behavior of Managed Lane (ML) users to better understand the value travelers place on travel time savings and travel time reliability. We also highlight the importance of survey design techniques. These objectives were accomplished through a stated preference survey of Houston's Katy Freeway travelers. Three stated choice experiment survey design techniques were tested in this study: Bayesian (Db) efficient, random level attribute generation, and an adaptive random approach. Mixed logit models were developed from responses using each of those designs. The value of travel time savings (VTTSs) estimates do vary across the design strategies, with the VTTS estimates based on the Db-efficient design being approximately half the estimates from the other two designs. However, among the three design strategies, the value of travel time reliability (VOR) was only significant in the Db-efficient design. The estimated VTTS from actual Katy Freeway usage (as measured using actual tolls paid and travel time saved on the managed lanes) is {\$}51/h. This likely also includes any value that travelers place on travel time reliability. In comparison, our combined estimate of VTTS and VOR based on the SP survey (Db-efficient design) was {\$}50/h, which is remarkably close to the estimate from the actual usage data. Based on our dataset, the Db-efficient design technique proved superior to the other two techniques. Finally, this research also supports the importance of including both travel time and travel time reliability parameters when estimating the willingness to pay for, and therefore benefits derived from, ML travel.},

abstract = {Motorcycle taxis are classified as an informal mean of public transportation. Nonetheless, they have become the main source of income and transport for numerous people. They represent one of the main issues regarding transport safety and policy, which calls upon the necessity of generating proposals based on economic incentives rather than forbiddance, which emphasize on the informal nature of this phenomenon. Results based on an economic model for the city of Sincelejo, which predicts the probability of becoming a motorcycle taxi driver, suggest that these drivers prefer formal jobs due to long run risks related to health, safety, and social security. However, most of them decide to perform this activity in response to higher revenues when compared to alternative sources of income and insufficient job offers. Such revenues are determined by the ownership of the motorcycle and several socioeconomic variables, which in turn affect operational expenses and therefore, profit margins. Finally, legalisation and subsequent incorporation to the legitimate public transportation system is required in order to achieve decreases in service supply, increase public revenues and improve road safety. RESUMEN: A pesar de ser considerado un medio de transporte p{\'{u}}blico informal, el mototaxismo se ha convertido en uno de los fen{\'{o}}menos sociales y econ{\'{o}}micos m{\'{a}}s recurrentes en la Costa Caribe sin que a la fecha haya recibido la atenci{\'{o}}n adecuada. Contrario al objetivo de las pol{\'{i}}ticas p{\'{u}}blicas que proh{\'{i}}ben esta actividad, cada a{\~{n}}o se incrementa la cantidad de mototaxistas, evidenciando la ineficacia de las mismas. Ello genera la necesidad de considerar regulaciones alternativas, basadas en incentivos econ{\'{o}}micos, que reflejen el hecho de que el mototaxismo constituye una manifestaci{\'{o}}n particular de la informalidad que caracteriza al mercado laboral colombiano. A partir de un modelo econ{\'{o}}mico del mototaxismo aplicado a la ciudad de Sincelejo, se estim{\'{o}} la probabilidad de ser mototaxista y se encontr{\'{o}} que la mayor{\'{i}}a de los individuos que ejercen este oficio preferir{\'{i}}an trabajar en una actividad que represente menores riesgos a largo plazo para su seguridad y salud. No obstante, la mayor{\'{i}}a elige ingresar o permanecer en dicha ocupaci{\'{o}}n en respuesta a su rentabilidad y a la insuficiencia de ofertas laborales formales. Esta rentabilidad se encuentra determinada principalmente por la propiedad sobre la motocicleta. Finalmente, se propone la legalizaci{\'{o}}n del mototaxismo y su posterior incorporaci{\'{o}}n al sistema de transporte p{\'{u}}blico legalmente constituido, como medida para contrarrestar las externalidades negativas derivadas del mismo, al mismo tiempo que se estimula una reducci{\'{o}}n en la oferta. Se podr{\'{i}}a as{\'{i}}, controlar la actividad, incrementar los recaudos fiscales, reintegrar los medios de transporte p{\'{u}}blico tradicionales y permitir la entrada en vigencia de sistemas de transporte masivos.},
