    High-Occupancy Vehicle Lane Configurations and Safety Performance of California Freeways: Investigation of Differential Distributions and Statistical Analysis

    No full text
    From a recent study of safety evaluation of HOV-equipped freeways, it was found that limited-access HOV lanes appear to have a safety performance disadvantage when measured by collision distribution or collision rates for the HOV lane alone and for the HOV and left lanes combined. This paper describes the work performed to verify the statistical significance of related findings. Several statistical tests were used: empirical cumulative density function (CDF), Kolmogorov-Smirnov Tests, and comparison of means based on Poisson Distributed Samples. The conclusion that continuous-access HOV lanes perform better than limited-access ones by several safety metrics is confirmed by the three separate approaches. In addition, the historical data for the HOV segments and the general-purpose lanes are extracted and compared, which offers supporting evidence for similar conclusions. The work described in this paper offers a methodology of statistical verification and can provide support to assist policy-making in selecting HOV configurations

    Let q > 1 and D = { ∂(0), ... , ∂(m) } be a set of real numbers such that 0 1,D = { ∂(0), ... , ∂(m) } 為一組實數,其中對於所有 0 ≤ i ≤ m−1,皆有 0 < ∂(i+1)−∂(i) ≤ [∂(m)−∂(0)]/(q−1) 成立。這樣一對 (q, D) 可當成一個迭代函數系統或一個記數系統。本論文研究 Φ = (q, D) 如何才滿足有限類條件 (Finite Type Condition,FTC),即集合{ ∑_{i=0}^n [s(i) - t(i)]*q^i : n ≥ 0, s(i),t(i) ∈ D }如何才不會有聚點。本論文證明I. 如果 1 ≤ m ≤ 3,且 Φ 滿足FTC,則 q 是一個Pisot-Vijayaraghavan數 (PV數)。II. 如果 m = 4,且 Φ 滿足FTC,則對於所有 q 的共軛代數數 A,如果 |A| ≥ 1 ,那麼 A 便不是實數。III. 對於所有 m ≥ 4,都存在一個滿足FTC的 Φ,且當中的 q 並不是PV數。CHAN, Ching Yin.Ph.D. Chinese University of Hong Kong 2021.Includes bibliographical references (leaves )Abstracts in English and Chinese.Title from PDF title page (viewed on ...

    Traffic Characteristics of High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) Lanes

    No full text
    Traffic characteristics intrinsic in contiguous and buffer-separated High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) facilities are explored by examining flow-density-speed relations with respect to intervening effect from the adjacent general purpose (GP) lane. Detector data are collected from multiple locations and systematically filtered to form well-defined relations among flow, density and speed of the HOV lane that characterize traffic stream in that lane. Analysis of the collected data exhibits different patterns of flow-density-speed relations for contiguous and buffer-separated HOV lanes. The relations in the contiguous HOV lane are distinctively defined as a function of the adjacent GP-lane speed while those in the buffer-separated HOV lane are rather independent of the adjacent GP-lane speed. Implications are drawn for capacity and speed estimates of HOV lanes and documented in this paper. These findings are confirmed by comparative analysis of pre- and post-conversion of HOV configurations (from buffer-separated to contiguous) in a real freeway site

    Cross-Section Designs for the Safety Performance of Buffer-Separated High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) Lanes

    No full text
    High-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes have been deployed as a tool for traffic management in urban freeway systems to improve reliability and mobility of trips. As they are planned to traverse crowded urban areas, it is often difficult to acquire sufficient right-of-way for retrofitting HOV lanes to existing freeway systems with recommended cross-sectional design. The present study proposes a methodology to determine the optimal set of cross-sectional design for safety performance by evaluating individual impact of each design element on safety as well as tradeoffs between them. Detailed collision data of concurrent-flow buffer-separated HOV lanes along with their geometric features and traffic flow data were analyzed to estimate collision predictive models for HOV and the adjacent general purpose lanes by injury types. These models were used to determine the set of cross-sectional design elements that minimizes the expected collision occurrences. As a case study, a real freeway corridor where converting continuous to buffer-separated types was underway was selected to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method. This case study shows that the method can assist to determine cross-section design of HOV facilities for safety based on currently available geometric space
