• Abstract:
  This handbook is intended as a reference manual for transportation planners and engineers working for TxDOT districts and Texas MPOs. Itis hoped these practitioners will be able to use the book in developing ideas with which they can address congestion problems in their corresponding metropolitan areas. Thus, the research team designed and wrote the handbook in a manner that would be most useful as a technical resource. It is recognized, however, that other potential handbook users exist and that they may not be as technically oriented as the primary audience. Such users include policy makers, stakeholders, and professionals not specifically trained in the field of transportation. As metropolitan and state transportation agencies continue to develop congestion management systems (CMS), they will be able to use the handbook to identify prospective CMS elements.
