Overview
TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 1978 contains 24 papers that explore different aspects of traffic signal systems and regional systems management. Specific topics addressed by papers in this issue of the TRR: Journal include detecting bicycles with inductive loop detectors, noncoordinated phases in coordinated traffic signal systems, traffic detection schemes at signalized intersections, flow-based traffic signal control, detection-control system for isolated high-speed signalized intersections, simultaneous gap-out logic, weather-responsive signal timing, and saturation flow at signalized intersections. This issue of the TRR: Journal also addresses design method for traffic control programs, an integrated arterial signal control model, traffic signal phase truncation in the event of a traffic flow restriction, robust real-time progression evaluation, system optimal signal optimization, microscopic simulation model calibration and validation, optimal detector location for transit signal priority, transition methods in traffic signal control, and more.
Individual TRRs, which are published on an irregular basis throughout the year, consist of collections of peer-reviewed papers on specific transportation subject areas and modes. TRB's TRR Online service allows all visitors to identify papers of interest and review abstracts of those papers. Access to the full papers is available to service subscribers and employees of TRB sponsors. Papers may also be purchased on an individual basis.
