Florida DOT, Systems Planning Office iv FSUTMS-Cube Framework High-Occupancy Toll Lane Models 1.0 Subtask-1: Literature Review and Survey of Current Practice 1.1 Overview The Corradino Group has been charged with studying how High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes are being modeled throughout the US, and developing a framework for modeling them in the context of the Florida Standard Transportation Urban Model Structure (FSUTMS). The study will develop a prototype model using the Olympus training model. It will define data requirements, and will suggest methods and parameters. Sensitivity tests will be conducted with the prototype model so the reasonableness of the model results can be judged. In the past several years HOT lanes have garnered an increasing amount of attention in the US as congestion on freeways increases and funding becomes scarce. The 95 Express project

In addition, since modeling vehicular interactions via simulation is intrinsic to the methodology, one may assess various impacts of safety treatments without disrupting vehicle movements and before proceeding with real-world implementations. VISSIM, a microscopic traffic simulation model, is used in this thesis to reproduce vehicular interactions of an urban High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) arterial in Québec.

    FACT SHEET #1 ROAD SAFETY: BASIC FACTS © Panos / Jacob Silberberg ROAD SAFETY AND MEDIA REPORTING Road traffic crashes are often covered in the media simply as events—not as a leading killer of people and an enormous drain on a country’s human, health and financial resources. By framing road safety as a health and development story, with data and in-depth information, journalists have the opportunity to affect the way these stories are told and potentially to help shift public behaviour and attitudes, influence policy and therefore contribute towards saving lives. WHY ARE ROAD TRAFFIC INJURIES A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE? Road traffic injuries and deaths have a terrible 1.25 million impact on individuals, communities and road traffic deaths occur every year. countries. They involve massive costs to often overburdened health care systems, occupy scarce hospital beds, consume resources and result in significant losses of productivity and prosperity, with deep social and economic repercussions. The numbers speak for themselves: this is a cause of death among public health and development crisis that is expected to worsen unless action is taken. #1those aged 15-29 years For more on: road traffic injuries Global death figures drive home the extent of this public health crisis, especially among young people.

  • TOLL ROAD SIGNS Section 2F.01 Scope Support: 01 Toll Highways Are Typically Limited-Access Freeway Or Expressway Facilities
    2009 Edition Page 237 CHAPTER 2F. TOLL ROAD SIGNS Section 2F.01 Scope Support: 01 Toll highways are typically limited-access freeway or expressway facilities. A portion of or an entire route might be a toll highway, or a bridge, tunnel, or other crossing point might be the only toll portion of a highway. A toll highway might be a conventional road. The general signing requirements for toll roads will depend on the type of facility and access (freeway, expressway, or conventional road). The provisions of Chapters 2D and 2E will generally apply for guide signs along the toll facility that direct road users within and off the facility where exit points and geometric configurations are not dependent specifically on the collection of tolls. The aspect of tolling and the presence of toll plazas or collection points necessitate additional considerations in the typical signing needs. The notification of the collection of tolls in advance of and at entry points to the toll highway also necessitate additional modifications to the typical signing. 02 The scope of this Section applies to a route or facility on which all lanes are tolled. Chapter 2G contains provisions for the signing of managed lanes within an otherwise non-toll facility that employ tolling or pricing as an operational strategy to manage congestion levels. Standard: 03 Except where specifically provided in this Chapter, the provisions of other Chapters in Part 2 shall apply to toll roads. Section 2F.02 Sizes of Toll Road Signs Standard: 01 Except as provided in Section 2A.11, the sizes of toll road signs that have standardized designs shall be as shown in Table 2F-1.

  • State Set to Push Toll Roads
    State set to push toll roads FUNDING PLAN AIMS TO SPEED UP ROAD PROJECTS, TRAFFIC RELIEF By Gary Richards Mercury News Thursday, February 3, 2005 The future of highway driving in California could be a two-tiered system, in which commuters can either remain in stop-and-go traffic for free, or pay a toll to cruise on a private highway. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is expected to soon announce his support for allowing private contractors to build toll roads across California. Following the model of Highway 125 now under construction in Southern California, contractors would build toll roads in congested areas or toll lanes parallel to existing roads -- such as Highway 152 or Interstate 205 -- that would be designed and maintained by the state. The specifics are still far away, but it is yet another step in the governor's strategy to creatively finance -- and speed up -- highway construction in California without raising taxes. The governor previously noted his support for allowing solo drivers to pay their way into carpool lanes. ``We're going to make an announcement really soon where we're going to look at our whole infrastructure and transportation and we have a very creative way of financing it,'' Schwarzenegger said last week in a meeting with the Orange County Register editorial board, adding: ``We want to approach it in a very radical way and then look at all kinds of transportation.'' The governor's office had no comment Wednesday on the expected announcement, but last year his performance review team called for more toll facilities. ``I'm not surprised,'' said Randy Rentschler of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission in Oakland.

  • High Occupancy Toll Lanes in the Houston Area DESCRIPTION
    High Occupancy Toll Lanes in the Houston Area DESCRIPTION Communities in the United States use high occupancy toll (HOT) lanes as a way to maximize the capacity of existing high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. The attached paper describes the concepts and benefits of HOT lanes. ISSUES The Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County (METRO) has approached the department with a request to operate HOT lanes on portions of five existing HOV lanes in the Houston/Harris County area. REFERENCES See attached description and background information. DESIRED ACTIONS The Commission will be asked to act on a proposed Minute Order authorizing the operation of HOT lanes on approximately 83 miles of existing HOV lanes in Harris County at the January 27th meeting. OTHER None. High Occupancy Toll Lanes in the Houston Area Under agreement with the department, the Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County (METRO) currently operates six high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes in the Houston area. These traditional HOV lanes expand the ability of these highways to move more people through the corridor by providing dedicated lanes to carpools, vanpools, and transit vehicles. Currently, the HOV lanes in Houston require a minimum of two or three passengers1 before a vehicle is eligible to use the lane. METRO has approached the department with a request that METRO be allowed to begin operating five of the HOV facilities as high occupancy toll (HOT) lanes: I-45 North Freeway: From downtown Houston to north of FM 1960 (19.9 miles); I-45 Gulf Freeway: From downtown Houston to Dixie Farm Road (15.5 miles); US 59 Eastex Freeway: From downtown Houston to Loop 494 (20.2 miles); US 59 Southwest Freeway: From downtown Houston to West Airport Boulevard (14.3 miles); and US 290 Northwest Freeway: From Northwest Transit Center to south of FM 1960 (13.5 miles).
