Proposed Chapters for Incorporating Travel Time Reliability into the Highway Capacity Manual

Travel time reliability reflects the distribution of travel time of trips using a facility over an extended period of time. This distribution arises from the interaction of a number of factors that influence travel times:

Recurring variations in demand, by hour of day, day of week, and
