Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to test a recently proposed model of road classification for use by provincial highway agencies. The proposed model to be tested is intended to classify roads according to temporal volume variations, road use characteristics, such as trip purpose, and trip length distribution. The proposed model, which was developed by using Alberta highways data, is applied to Saskatchewan highways to evaluate its classification results. For the purpose of this study, a total of 31 permanent automatic traffic recorder sites in Saskatchewan is investigated. The application of the model to Saskatchewan highways results in six main groups according to the trip purpose and trip length distribution characteristics. The paper defines and discusses these classes in detail and compares them with the existing classification of Saskatchewan highways. The model produces similar road classes for Alberta and Saskatchewan highways. The similarity of road classes for the two provinces has implications for a standard classification of provincial highways. Key words: highway classification, road use, traffic, transportation, traffic volume patterns.

Abstract:

Abstract: The road trip narrative is a quintessentially American form of prose. Traditionally, road trip narratives not only exclude women, but female subjectivity more generally. There are, however, some notable early and midcentury contributions to the genre from a queer female perspective that have currently gone understudied. Novels like Patricia Highsmith's Price of Salt (1952), Lilyan Brock's Queer Patterns (1935), and Tiffany Thayer's Thirteen Women (1932) posit an alternative paradigm for the iconic American road trip story. This paper explores how the road trip allows for lesbian escape from the confines of hetero-patriarchal gender norms and domestic constraints through a new, queer definition of "home" on the road. In Highsmith, Brock, and Thayer's novels, the road trip functions as a radical act of queer self-preservation and invention.

Abstract:

Abstract Bali Province is a province in Indonesia with fast economic growth. The impact of this economic growth is the accelerated development of activity centers and trip generation in this province. The trip generation can affect the performance of existing roads. Therefore, an analysis of the traffic impact due to additional trip generation needs to be carried out, to minimize the negative impact of the additional trip generation on existing roads, especially on national roads. This study is carried out on several national roads that have been prioritized to be handled, so that handling proposals can be made, and an estimate of the performance improvement of these road sections due to the proposed measures can be determined. After handling several national roads, this study shows that the biggest increase in performance occurred on Jalan Raya Denpasar-Tuban. However, there are also road sections that have not experienced a significant increase in performance, which means that the proposed treatment for these road sections needs to be supported by additional road capacity, to improve the performance of these road sections. Keywords: traffic impact analysis; trip generation; national roads; road segment performance. Abstrak Provinsi Bali merupakan suatu provinsi di Indonesia dengan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang pesat. Dampak pertumbuhan ekonomi tersebut adalah terjadinya percepatan pembangunan pusat-pusat kegiatan dan bangkitan perjalanan di provinsi ini. Bangkitan perjalanan tersebut dapat memengaruhi kinerja ruas jalan yang ada. Karena itu, analisis dampak lalu lintas akibat tambahan bangkitan perjalanan perlu dilakukan, untuk meminimalkan dampak negatif akibat tambahan bangkitan perjalanan pada jalan-jalan yang ada, khususnya pada jalan-jalan nasional. Studi ini dilakukan terhadap beberapa ruas jalan nasional yang mendapat prioritas untuk ditangani, sehingga dapat dibuat usulan penanganannya, serta dapat diperkirakan peningkatan kinerja ruas-ruas jalan tersebut akibat penanganan yang diusulkan. Setelah dilakukan penanganan terhadap beberapa ruas jalan nasional, studi ini menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan kinerja terbesar terjadi pada ruas Jalan Raya Denpasar-Tuban. Walaupun demikian, terdapat pula ruas-ruas jalan yang tidak mengalami peningkatan kinerja yang sig-nifikan, yang berarti bahwa usulan penanganan untuk ruas-ruas jalan ini perlu didukung dengan penambahan kapasitas jalan, untuk meningkatkan kinerja ruas-ruas jalan tersebut. Kata-kata kunci: analisis dampak lalu lintas; bangkitan perjalanan; jalan nasional; kinerja ruas jalan.

Abstract:

We introduce a property of geodesic metric spaces, called the road trip property, that generalizes hyperbolic and convex metric spaces. This property is shown to be invariant under quasi-isometry. Thus, it leads to a geometric property of finitely generated groups, also called the road trip property. The main result is that groups with the road trip property are finitely presented and satisfy a quadratic isoperimetric inequality. Examples of groups with the road trip property include hyperbolic, semihyperbolic, automatic and CAT(0) groups.

Abstract:

A number of places that feature in Strabo’s description of the Asian peninsula were situated on the ancient road that ran between the Euphrates river and the city of Ephesus. It is likely that Strabo journeyed along the entire thousand-kilometre length of the road, even though he makes explicit reference to his presence in only a few locations. He most probably made the journey as a youth on his way to Roman Asia, in the south west of the peninsula, from Pontus in the north. Decades pass before Strabo, as an old man, writes the Geography and includes in it the memories of places he had visited. The outdated tone of some of his descriptions reflects this passage of time.

Abstract:

Abstract In this article, I argue that Jesmyn Ward deploys a road trip in her 2017 novel Sing, Unburied, Sing as a literary formula through which she demonstrates the immobilizing effects of racism and incarceration on contemporary black lives. The association of the American road-trip novel with freedom and free movement is strong in the American imaginary, and Ward manipulates this association to explore what happens when automobile travelers are precarious rather than privileged. The road trip in Ward's novel makes visible various forces of mobility and immobility that differentiate citizens by race. She conjures two dimensions of the African American experience that are immobilizing: the carceral system and the risk of “driving while black.” Sing, Unburied, Sing already critiques the traditional road trip in its plot and narrative structure; for Ward, it is the linkages of dimensions of African American immobilization around the road trip that are powerful. Ward's novel demonstrates that black automobility, or the unique experience of the road for racialized drivers, reveals the political and social dynamics that shape our conception of the road for all drivers. Furthermore, I analyze how the road trip within the novel “unburies” a story about the violence of incarceration. I explore how Ward finesses that iconic American narrative trope, the journey by car that ought to be freeing, to heighten her critique of racist, anti-black structures of oppression in the United States.

This development will give rises to a new mall, hotel, building depo, shop house, housing, and convention hall. The development will lead to the production trip and attraction trip that will impact the intersections and roads in surrounding areas. Intersections and road performance analysis of Jember Tanrise City development impact need to be studied to understand its effects on the existing condition in the present time and 5 (five) years to come. Intersections and road performance analysis use The 1997 Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (IHCM). The volume of vehicles for each intersection and roads is obtained from the counting result and the growth factor. Determination of trip production and the trip attraction was by surveying the comparison building. The traffic estimate is obtained using the concept of trip generation, trip distribution, trip assignment. The result of intersections performance of the Mangli Intersections, Transmart Intersections, Argopuro Intersection on the existing condition, in the present time, and 5 (five) years to come to use The 1997 Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (IHCM) showed that the intersection performance has decreased. The worst intersection performance occurred at the Mangli intersection with the delay value (D) is > 1000 sec/pcu. The result of road performance in surrounding areas on the existing condition is stable currents, and the worst road performance occurred in Brawijaya street with the Degree Of Saturation (DS) is > 0,85, which is E category. The road's performance in the present time and 5 (five) years to come has decreased in every peak hour.

Abstract:

Four-stage demand models are the most popular travel demand forecasting models. Trip assignment which is the last stage in the four-stage demand modelling is a key element in travel demand forecasting process. Traffic assignment model is used to assign travel demands into the road network and predict network flows that are associated with future planning scenarios based on the estimates of link travel times. In order to calculate travel time between origin and destination, a function presenting the relationship between link delays and link flows is used. This function is known as Volume-Delay Function (VDF) and it is the fundamental component of equilibrium trip assignment models. This study aims to investigate and improve VDFs for heterogeneous traffic at different type of arterial roads in Malaysia by using the road network in Balik Pulau, Penang as a case study. Primary data such as traffic volume and speed are collected at three types of arterial roads, which are the principal arterial, minor arterial and collectors to derive the parameters required in the VDFs. In this study, the most well-known and most widely-used volume-delay function which is known as the BPR function developed by the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads was investigated and calibrated using the transportation planning software, EMME 4.1.3. The calibrated functions are then validated with field data. The output from this research is very important as better understanding of VDFs can produce better estimate of link travel times and hence better planning for future scenarios.

Abstract:

Source–sink zones refer to aggregated adjacent origins/destinations with homogeneous trip flow characteristics. Current relevant studies mostly detect source–sink zones based on outflow/inflow volumes without considering trip routes. Nevertheless, trip routes detail individuals’ journeys on road networks and give rise to relationships among human activities, road network structures, and land-use types. Therefore, this study developed a novel approach to delineate source–sink zones based on trip route aggregation on road networks. We first represented original trajectories using road segment sequences and applied the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model to associate trajectories with route semantics. We then ran a hierarchical clustering operation to aggregate trajectories with similar route semantics. Finally, we adopted an adaptive multi-variable agglomeration strategy to associate the trajectory clusters with each traffic analysis zone to delineating source and sink zones, with a trajectory topic entropy defined as an indicator to analyze the dynamic impact between the road network and source–sink zones. We used taxi trajectories in Xiamen, China, to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract:

In today’s world, the traffic volume on urban road networks is multiplying rapidly due to the heavy usage of vehicles and mobility on demand services. Migration of people towards urban areas result in increasing size and complexity of urban road networks. When handling such complex traffic systems, partitioning the road network into multiple sub-regions and managing the identified sub regions is a popular approach. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to identify sub-regions of a road network that exhibit homogeneous traffic flow patterns. In a stage wise manner, we model the road network graph by using taxi-trip data obtained on the selected region. Then, we apply the proposed modified multilevel kway partitioning algorithm to obtain optimal number of partitions from the developed road graph. An interesting feature of this algorithm is, resulting partitions are geographically connected and consists minimal interpartition trip flow. Our results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms state-of-the-art multilevel partitioning algorithms for tripbased road networks. By this research, we demonstrate the ability of road network partitioning using trip data while preserving the partition homogeneity and connectivity.

Abstract:

In many developing cities, the improvement of transport infrastructure is usually accompanied by major road construction and maintenance. This paper presents approaches and opportunities using peer-to-peer updating to improve spatial road networks undergoing construction and maintenance, which in turn will improve traffic flow and benefit cities overall. In many cities, the spatial road network requires maintenance, and these works often require traffic detours. With the current GPS (Global Positioning System) services, there is a noticeable delay in the updating of many spatial road networks. Thus, when a driver plans a trip to a certain location (such as Starbucks), his/her usual route may have changed, but the spatial road network in the GPS has not been updated. This can affect the user in many ways. For example, a trip that usually takes five minutes might now take half an hour, taking into account the additional time required to find alternative roads and possibly encountering more unexpected road closures, until the driver reaches his/her destination. This paper addresses this issue by proposing solutions that offer several advantages including a new peer-to-peer updating mechanism that helps to direct the driver to another route when road changes occur. Moreover, the peer-to-peer updating mechanism can enable the independent monitoring of road conditions and the updating of maps for newly-constructed roads, as well as the analysis of road congestions, traffic density, and people movements at certain times. Note that this work focuses on the conceptual ideas and approaches intended to improve independent maps, and the detailed algorithms have been left for future work.

Abstract:

Gear shifting strategy of vehicle is important aid for the acquisition of dynamic performance and high economy. A dynamic programming (DP) algorithm is used to optimize the gear shifting schedule for off-road vehicle by using an objective function that weighs fuel use and trip time. The optimization is accomplished through discrete dynamic programming and a trade-off between trip time and fuel consumption is analyzed. By using concave and convex surface road as road profile, an optimal gear shifting strategy is used to control the longitudinal behavior of the vehicle. Simulation results show that the trip time can be reduced by powerful gear shifting strategy and fuel consumption can achieve high economy with economical gear shifting strategy in different initial conditions and route cases.

Abstract:

A stable functional condition of roads is a guarantee of smooth, safe and comfortable socio-economic travel in an area. However, there is a limited ability to provide and/or manage development funds to preserve the road and bridge infrastructure. So far, every year the government tries to update the data base based on the result of road and bridge functional condition survey, intended to determine their priority handling. Result of field observation shows that the condition of some road links was in a poor level category so that it may affect the accessibility and mobility around the island of Semau, especially on the main connecting road to the location of main tourism objects. In addition, the type of land use and/or the availability of various supporting tourism facilities is very limited. These might influence the tourism area's attractiveness and/or the trip attractiveness due to the required time travel as well as travel cost. The limited or unavailability of local pavement material make it worst (high construction and/or preservation costs). Accordingly, the aim of this study is 1) to identify the determinant variables behind such transportation system problems, particularly based on the current physical and functional connectivity of roads and bridges, including variables that influencing the institutional capability arrangement 2) to recommend the appropriate strategy in road and bridge preservation and land use utilization.

Abstract:

The objective of this research is the analysis of pedestrians behaviour along entire trips in urban road networks, with focus on their interaction with the traffic and the road environment while crossing roads. For this purpose, a special field survey was designed and carried out, which involved the recording of pedestrians road crossing behaviour along entire trips in real time by means of camera in motion at the centre of Athens, Greece. Based on the results of the field survey, an analysis of road crossing behaviour of pedestrians is presented, concerning characteristics of the trips, the pedestrians, the road environment and the traffic conditions. The results indicate that basic parameters of pedestrian trips (i.e. trip length, walking speed, number of crossings) can be described by appropriate probability distributions. They also reveal a tendency of pedestrians to cross either in the beginning or in the end of the trip, an increased probability of crossing at signalized junctions when these are available, and increased probability of crossing at mid-block in low traffic volume and on one-way roads. Furthermore, there is an overall tendency of pedestrians cross to at mid-block when the road and traffic conditions are favourable. On the contrary, more traffic lanes and increased traffic volume appear to discourage pedestrians from accepting important interaction with the vehicles and to lead them towards the choice of protected crossing locations. The proposed data collection method and the results of the analysis can be exploited in further research for the development of models of pedestrian crossing behaviour along entire trips in urban areas.

Abstract:

Route guidance tools have a significant impact on road safety on public roads, as they carry important information on route guidance: provide drivers with information on the location on a specified road, regularly confirm the planned direction of movement, timely inform road users about the change of specified route direction and indicate the distance to the final object. This is very important information for the driver and it is difficult to overestimate it in road safety. Timely informing of drivers on the route direction will allow them carrying out adjustments in advance and feel confident on the road. Ensuring the completeness of route guidance information prevents emergency braking of vehicles in the area of traffic junctions and violation of the maneuvering rules to make a turn / turnaround in the right direction, and such maneuvers lead to road accidents. The establishment of a uniform route guidance system will reduce the road accident level and the cost of transportation due to excessive mileage of vehicles in the case of wrong route and help the drivers freely and easily get to their destination. The main need for information is felt by the drivers of vehicles whose actions directly impact the road safety. This, in turn, determines the basic principles and requirements for the composition, placement and choice of information tools. During the trip, the drivers need the information that would allow them navigating freely on the roads when passing the selected route that will relieve the stress of drivers and reduce the probability of road accidents, as well as increase the capacity of roads. It helps the drivers to adjust the previously selected route taking into account the real traffic conditions during the trip thereby minimizing the time consumption. To navigate the roads during movement, the drivers need the information about streets, objects and directions. Such information is provided by information signs, with which the road network must be equipped in sufficient quantity. The information provision should differ depending on the settlements, public roads and traffic conditions. A comprehensive solution of the issue of quality information provision to the road users can be achieved only by establishing a uniform route guidance system for road users which will take into account the needs for information of different categories of road users.

Abstract:

Several toll road corridors were surveyed for route choice behavior study and the structural equation model was used to analyze the route choice behavior influenced by the factors of vehicle type, vehicle ownership, trip purpose, trip distance, trip time and cost. The results suggest that vehicle type, vehicle ownership and trip distance can all have impacts on the route choice behaviors, and the influences of the trip distance and the vehicle type on the route choice behaviors are the largest.

Abstract:

Travel time estimation on road networks is a valuable traffic metric. In this paper, we propose a machine learning based method for trip travel time estimation in road networks. The method uses the historical trip information extracted from taxis trace data as the training data. An optimized online sequential extreme machine, selective forgetting extreme learning machine, is adopted to make the prediction. Its selective forgetting learning ability enables the prediction algorithm to adapt to trip conditions changes well. Experimental results using real-life taxis trace data show that the forecasting model provides an effective and practical way for the travel time forecasting.

Abstract:

The vehicle license plate data obtained from video-imaging detectors contains a huge volume of information of vehicle trip rules and driving behavior characteristics. In this paper, a real-time vehicle trajectory prediction method is proposed based on historical trip rules extracted from vehicle license plate data in an urban road environment. Using the driving status information at intersections, the vehicle trip chain is acquired on the basis of the topologic graph of the road network and channelization of intersections. In order to obtain an integral and continuous trip chain in cases where data is missing in the original vehicle license plate, a trip chain compensation method based on the Dijkstra algorithm is presented. Moreover, the turning state transition matrix which is used to describe the turning probability of a vehicle when it passes a certain intersection is calculated by a massive volume of historical trip chain data. Finally, a k-step vehicle trajectory prediction model is proposed to obtain the maximum possibility of downstream intersections. The overall method is thoroughly tested and demonstrated in a realistic road traffic scenario with actual vehicle license plate data. The results show that vehicles can reach an average accuracy of 0.72 for one-step prediction when there are only 200 historical training data samples. The proposed method presents significant performance in trajectory prediction.

Abstract:

Drilling activity produces a significant amount of road traffic through unpaved and paved local roads. Because oil production is an important contributor to the local economy in the state of North Dakota, the state and local transportation agencies make efforts to support local energy logistics through the expansion and good repair and maintenance of transportation infrastructure. As part of this effort, it is important to build new roads and bridges, maintain existing road pavement and non-marked road surface conditions, and improve bridge and other transportation infrastructure. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to review previous oil location prediction models and propose a novel geospatial model to predict drilling locations which have a significant impact on local roads, to verify and provide a better prediction model. Then, this study proposes a SIR (susceptible–infected–recovered) epidemic model to predict oil drilling locations which are traffic generators. The simulation has been done on the historical data from 1980 to 2015. The study found that the best fit parameters of β (contact rate) and μ (recovery rate) were estimated by using a dataset of historical oil wells. The study found that the SIR epidemic model can be applied to predict the locations of oil wells. The proposed model can be used to predict other drilling locations and can assist with traffic, road conditions, and other related issues, which is a much needed predictive model that is key in transportation planning and pavement design and maintenance.

Abstract:

In this paper, we use car-following model to explore the influences of the vehicle’s fuel consumption and exhaust emissions on each commuter’s trip cost without late arrival on one open road. Our results illustrate that considering the vehicle’s fuel cost and emission cost only enhances each commuter’s trip cost and the system’s total cost, but has no prominent impacts on his optimal time headway at the origin of each open road under the minimum total cost.

Abstract:

Urban subway station construction has a direct influence on the surrounding road network, so the traffic organization scheme needs be optimized according to construction process. For accurately simulating the traffic conditions when the station to be constructed, the OD trip matrix from OD matrix estimation was distributed on different road network by using TransCAD. The traffic organization scheme would be more scientific and reasonable by multiple traffic organization scheme compared selected evaluation, which the service level of roads and intersections as the main evaluation indicators. The results show that traffic organization scheme obtained by this method can greatly reduce the traffic influence on the surrounding road network during construction.
