Abstract:The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) sponsored Project 0-4986, “An Assessment of Frontage Road
Yield Treatments,” to assess the effectiveness of a wide variety of frontage road–exit ramp and frontage road–U-turn
yield treatments that exist in Texas. Toward this goal, simulation modeling procedures compensated for the
impracticability of the data collection effort that would be required to compile every possible combination of
volume, geometry and yield treatment types.
Researchers ran several simulations and generated significant numbers of measures of performance and comparative
analysis. To better present the data in a more coherent manner, they developed a database tool to incorporate the
results of the research and present these results in a format that would be useful to TxDOT staff. This report
