• Abstract:
  The FHWA Work Zone Driver Model v1.1 was created for planners and engineers, so they can more accurately predict the operational impacts of freeway work zones, such as queues, travel times, and delays. The software interfaces with commercially available microsimulation tools and alters car-following algorithms— derived from empirically collected data—to more accurately match behaviors observed in freeway work zones. The software is available for download on the Open Source Application Development Portal (OSADP)1 as part of the FHWA Driver Model Platform v0.6.
