4、 Studies: Case Study of Truck Lane Restriction on I-710 in Southern California 20070000 Yes Accurate evaluations of general truck management strategies (GTMS) are required in order to identify positive benefits that can be expected to result from implementation. Most GTMS have been studied with prim
5、ary or even exclusive consideration of the public-sector standpoint. Traffic agencies have primarily focused on addressing operational and safety aspects of GTMS. These are important but insufficient, because they do not accurately describe the full effects of GTMS. In our research, multicriteria pe
6、rformance measures are used to reflect and evaluate overall benefits, including the public- and private-sector standpoints. This study was performed on an approximately 10-mile section of the I-710 corridor in Southern California. This corridor has some of the highest truck volumes in the U.S. We co
7、nsidered a truck lane restriction strategy, because it is regarded as the most appropriate option for this facility. Three types of scenarios were developed to examine the proper number of restricted lanes. The micro traffic simulation models TransCAD and PARAMICS were the primary analytical tools e
8、mployed in this research. We concluded that Scenario 3, in which two lanes out of four to six are restricted, would provide the maximum positive benefits to the public and private sectors. This study also demonstrated the number of restricted lanes is an important factor in the success of the implem
9、entation of this strategy. Our simulation model is fairly general and can be used to evaluate other possible GTMS, such as weigh in motion and the addition or conversion of one or more lanes to allow trucks only. 4 SCAG, SANBAG, and Caltrans I-15 Comprehensive Corridor Study 2003/2004 Yes 5 Georgia

Planning Truck-Only Lanes: Emerging Lessons from the Southern California Experience 20030000 Yes Recent efforts to develop truck-only faci
13、lities in the U.S. are discussed. The rationale for truck-only highways is described, and the history of efforts to separate trucks and automobiles on the nations roadways is presented. The truck lane program of SCAG is one of the most ambitious programs of its type in the U.S. Preliminary analysis
14、of truck lanes for SR 60 and I-710 is described. SR 60 is an east-west corridor linking downtown Los Angeles, with the warehouse and manufacturing districts of the San Gabriel Valley and the Inland Empire. I-710 is the major access route to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Both freeways each
15、 have one of the highest truck volumes in California, and truck mobility on these corridors is a significant problem. Truck lane projects on SR 60 and I-710 are in the feasibility analysis stage, and much has been learned in these early studies. Various issues are addressed, including the tradeoff b
16、etween limiting access to improve operational costs and limit capital costs, need to generate demand, time-of-day distribution of truck traffic and its relationship to potentially benefit truck mobility, and need for improved analytical tools. Also described are issues related to facility design and
17、 configuration, demand analysis, and toll analysis. 9 Garber, N. J., and R. Gadiraju Effects of Truck Strategies on Traffic Flow and Safety on Multilane Highways 1990 Yes Recent legislation has encouraged the increased operation of trucks (defined here as vehicles having six or more wheels in contac
18、t with the road and a gross vehicle weight greater than 10,000 lbs) on Interstate and primary highways. This has affected safety and the quality of traffic flow on multilane highways. Imposing certain restrictions on truck operations on these highways has been identified as a way to reduce this effe
19、ct. However, the overall impact of these restrictions on safety and traffic flow has not been fully studied. For example, restricting trucks to specific lanes or lowering their speed limit could have varied effects on traffic. The primary objective of the research described in this paper was to prov
20、ide information on the nature and extent of the effects of such truck control strategies on traffic flows, speeds, headways, and accident patterns. Simulation was used to study these effects on multilane highways. The results did not indicate any safety benefits from the imposition of these strategi
21、es, but suggested that the potential for an increase in accident rates would be created, particularly if the strategies were imposed on highways with high volumes and a high percentage of trucks. 10 Borchardt, D. TTI Evaluates Lane Restrictions for Houston Demonstration Project 20020000 Yes Employin
22、g a Texas law allowing local governments to institute no truck lanes, the Texas DOT worked with the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) to conduct a study to evaluate the success of a highway lane restricted to only passenger vehicles. After a 36-week monitoring period, it was found that the crash
23、rate on the selected 8-mile stretch of I-10 East Freeway was reduced by 68 percent as a result of lane restriction. Due to this success and an 85-percent approval rating of the project in a survey of drivers, the Texas DOT is considering implementing the restrictions on additional freeways in Housto

This model is fully integrated with SCAGs existing five-county travel demand

It also includes focused efforts to quantify truck trips generated by special generators, such as airports, seaports, intermodal terminals, and major industrial employers.

36、ucks, buses, recreational vehicles, etc. The impacts of these different vehicle types are not uniform; thus, create special problems in highway operations and safety. One common approach to reducing the impacts of truck traffic on freeways has been to impose certain lane restrictions on trucks. Truc
37、k-lane restrictions may increase the overall operational efficiency of freeways, lead to improved traffic safety on these facilities, and provide uniform pavement wear. A variety of truck restriction methods have been implemented throughout the U.S. Most restrictions, however, have been used without
38、 detailed planning or evaluation through before and after studies. The purpose of this study was to analyze changes in various measures of effectiveness (MOEs), including speed, capacity, density, and lane changes under various traffic conditions and restriction strategies. The CORSIM simulation mod
39、el was used to model the effects of various truck-lane restrictions on basic freeway sections. For model development, car-following sensitivity factors were calibrated to emulate the freeway speed-flow curves in HCM 2000. Various scenarios were constructed to replicate prevailing conditions with com
40、binations of number of lanes, free- flow speed, volumes, truck percentage, and restriction methods. Paired t-test was used to assess the changes in MOE before and after truck-lane restrictions. It was found that: 1) truck-lane restrictions reduce average speed and capacity and increase density; 2) t
41、ruck- lane restrictions reduced the lane changes for all cases, except when there is a high number of restricted lanes; and 3) changes in density, speed, capacity, or lane changes after truck- lane restriction increased with increasing number of restricted lanes. 14 LA Metro, Caltrans, Gateway Citie

Fitzpatrick, and D Jasek Case Studies and Annotated Bibliography of Truck Accident Countermeasures on Urban Freeways, FHWA-Rd-92-040 1994 Yes To address the growing problem of congestion caused by incidents, especially tru
43、ck- involved incidents, this study was undertaken to identify truck accident countermeasures, which have been used nationwide. Desired conditions surrounding implemented countermeasures in this study included urban freeway volumes of 95,000 vehicles per day or higher, a significant number of trucks
44、in the traffic stream (typically 5 percent or more), and countermeasures involving road design. The study omitted countermeasures directly related to the vehicle and the driver. This project included the following steps: literature search, telephone survey, and field visits to selected sites. The in
45、formation collected by this project is intended to assist agencies in identifying, selecting, and implementing truck accident countermeasures. Information was gathered on the following truck accident countermeasures: lane restrictions, separate truck roadways, urban inspection stations, ramp treatme
46、nts, major incident response and clearance, and truck bans/diversion and time restrictions. The detailed information found in this document is summarized in the final report, FHWA-RD-92-059 (TRIS 662764).
