Abstract:

Everyday traffic delays produce frustrations and wasted time for road users who frequently deal with delays, especially during commutes and rush hour trips. Innovative solutions are needed for near-term implementation. These solutions produce significant operational benefits with only minor modifications to existing infrastructure, using less time and resources to make major impacts on traffic delays. ; The Saxton Transportation Operations Lab (STOL), located at the Federal Highway Administration Turner-Fairbank Research Center in McLean, VA, is focused on one of these alternative solutions: the lane-width reduction strategy.
