Abstract:

The rise in freight movements in metropolitan areas can be regarded as one of the crucial concerns of the near future. Traffic congestion attributed to elevated freight flows impacts both private and public vehicle operations. Therefore, it is of considerable significance to reduce congestion on multimodal routes with heavy freight and transit volumes. Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) components such as Freight Signal Priority (FSP) and Transit Signal Priority (TSP) can help to overcome these conditions. The primary objective of this project is to establish guidelines for the application of signal priorities by traffic agencies focusing on defined decision factors on the considered corridors. In addition, this analysis assesses the efficacy of FSP and TSP in enhancing freight and transit network efficiency. This research laid out recommendations for different scenarios. Finally, a detailed guideline framework is established based on the literature review and the experiments being performed. The developed guideline relates to corridors where freight delay plays a critical role in determining the performance of the corridors.
