Predicting Corridor-level Travel Time Distributions Based on Stochastic Flow and Capacity Variations

Overview

This paper aims to establish a point-queue based end-to-end travel time prediction method on a corridor with multiple merges and diverges. In a point-queue model, a link can be considered as two segments: the free-flow segment and the queuing segment. The accompanying spreadsheet and presentation on the point-queue model are available through the links of the Related Artifacts section.
