Abstract:The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) has initiated research to refine the figures employed in the estimation of Montana rest area use. This work seeks to obtain Montana-specific data related to rest area usage, including water flow, effluent flow, patron traffic, vehicle traffic volume and classification, and vehicle dwell times for commercial and passenger vehicles. Such estimation will provide MDT with up-to-date figures that will assist in the process of planning, designing, and rehabilitating rest area facilities. This report summarizes the research efforts conducted for this project, including the literature review, survey of practices by selected DOTs, data collection, and data analyses. Based on the findings of the data collection and analyses, this final report also includes recommendations on Montana rest area usage estimation, including vehicular and patron traffic, as well as vehicular dwell time and wastewater usage estimation.
