Abstract:Specific research objectives were developed to address important issues for emergency preparedness officials, including: • the temporal and spatial patterns by which traffic congestion develops and abates along the segments, and • the way in which varying levels of traffic demand impact operational characteristics of contraflow segments. The research was divided into two separate but overlapping projects. The first focused on issues associated with the contraflow entry area; the second focused on the vicinity of the termination where vehicles exited the segment.
