Project L01 Final Report

Reliability is defined in this report as consistency of travel times for a particular trip. Travelers tend to estimate how long a trip will take based on parameters such as distance, time of day, and their own experience. Impacts to the transportation network that cause unexpected delays introduc

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

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
