Abstract The aging highway bridge infrastructure in the United States must be continuously renewed while accom- modating traffic flow, so new bridge systems are needed that allow components to be fabricated offsite and moved into place quickly. The Federal Highway Administration, American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, and National Cooperative Highway Research Program sponsored a scanning study in Japan and Europe to identify prefabricated bridge elements and systems that minimize traffic dis- ruption, improve work zone safety, and lower life-cycle costs.

City Logistics from Road Policy Aspect (1) Present Situation of Freight Transport in Japan (2) Problems of City Logistics (3) Efforts for Loading and Unloading Spaces (Hard Measures) (4) Efforts for Loading and Unloading Spaces (Soft Measures) (5) Recent Case Examples 2 1. Effects of Road Improvements (1) Classification of the effects of road improvements There are various effects produced by road improvements. The effects of road improvements are classified by the following methods: • Method of classifying into direct effects generated by the use of roads, and indirect effects enjoyed by the public in general including those who do not use roads directly • Method of classifying into flow effects (the effects of demand creation), which bring about an increase of GDP because government expenditures for road improvements create effective demand, and stock effects (the effects of productivity), which are generated from the original functions of roads after roads are constructed When the effects of road improvements are classified into direct and indirect effects, the direct effects correspond roughly with benefits measured by cost -benefit analyses * . * Cost-benefit analyses: Cost-benefit analyses should

  • Current Status of Motorcycle Accidents and Emergency Transport
    ITARDA 21th WorkShop Report Current status of motorcycle accidents and emergency transport Shinji Hamada, Senior Researcher, Research Division 1. Purpose of the study The conditions surrounding motorcycles and motorcycle accidents have been undergoing a drastic transformation in these past few decades. This is thought to have been backed by a number of factors, including: (1) the decline in the population of young people, (2) the diversification in people’s interests, and (3) the adoption of motorcycling as an interest by middle-aged and elderly people. In light of the above, there are calls for the enactment of different traffic measures than those enacted in the past. Conceivable examples of this would include revising countermeasures against motorcycle gangs comprised mainly of minors (lifting entry restrictions to downtown urban areas) and awareness- raising activities for middle-aged and elderly return riders who are taking up motorcycling again after an absence (with measures including rechecking of any decline in their capabilities, etc.). Among these one can glimpse measures that are being handled, even if only in a partial manner. This paper will reaffirm the changes in motorcycle accidents and their recent conditions and characteristics, thereby clarifying the orientation for traffic measures and getting the word on this out to the public that will serve to provide backup in promoting effective traffic measures. One recent initiative begun by the Institute for Traffic Accident Research and Data Analysis (hereafter abbreviated as ITARDA) is an attempt to develop traffic analyses based on a new approach of combining the various traffic accident data possessed by ITARDA with other data (national geographical information, emergency transport information, etc.).
