This chapter presents an advanced method for estimating flow reliability on highways and describes the current systems of highway traffic management and control. In this chapter a rigorous capacity definition is offered. The basic characteristics of the Automated Highway System are also introduced. Finally, the HSM method to estimate the annual crash frequency expected on highways and the COPERT method to calculate the polluting emissions are both illustrated.

Abstract

This chapter presents an advanced method for estimating flow reliability on highways and describes the current systems of highway traffic management and control. In this chapter a rigorous capacity definition is offered. The basic characteristics of the Automated Highway System are also introduced. Finally, the HSM method to estimate the annual crash frequency expected on highways and the COPERT method to calculate the polluting emissions are both illustrated.
