This paper seeks a straightforward question: Is the infrastructure improvement or demand management strategy is a better solution to traffic congestion problem to the region's economy? This research focussed on the economic evaluation of congestion relief measures under heterogeneous traffic condition. A ...
This report provides a snapshot of congestion in the United States by summarizing recent trends in congestion, highlighting the role of travel time reliability in the effects of congestion, and describing efforts to reduce the growth of congestion. This is the second in an annual series developed...

Planners face greater challenges today than ever before in designing transport strategies for urban areas to reduce congestion, reduce pollution, reduce energy consumption and improve safety. These strategies include reducing car usage, increasing share of other modes, reducing temporal peaks of car ...
The key issue to solve urban traffic congestion is that deeply understanding the mechanism for traffic congestion formation and evolution,then make scientific manage and control strategy.In this paper,some basic concepts for urban traffic congestion,and the progress on studies for urban traffic congestio...
Integrating Active Traffic and Travel Demand Management: A Holistic Approach to Congestion Management The following are the five types of integration: New partnerships for integrating ATM and TDM; Enhanced travel alternatives in actively managed corridors; Incentives to reduce traffic volumes on congested ...
Congestion pricing has been promoted by economists and transportation researchers as one ofthe means to reduce traffic congestion. As one form of congestio... D Michalaka,Y Lou,Y Yin 被引量: 15发表: 2011年 Free-on-board and uniform delivered pricing strategies in pure and mixed spatial duopo...
As the congestion critical failure threshold decreases, the speed and scale of cascading failures caused by traffic congestion diffusion are greater. Maintaining proper traffic management and control capability can largely reduce the cascading effect to a great extent and improve the reliability of the ...
Increasing traffic emission presents a high risk of exposure to residents in near-road buildings. Traffic tidal flow (TTF) has gradually become one of the most important components of urban traffic congestion. By computational fluid dynamics simulation, the present study examines the airflow, spatial...
The “Avoid” strategy, e.g., land use planning and compact city form, can reduce travel demand by cutting down on long-distance trips but might also generate negative externalities (e.g., traffic congestion in the city center), which would offset the benefits produced by the “Avoid” ...
