Abstract:This report provides guidelines on corridor-scale analysis using corridor traffic simulation models to evaluate traffic management alternatives for freeway incidents. It focuses on identifying the analysis requirements for corridor traffic management during freeway incidents and offering guidance on how CORFLO, an available corridor traffic simulation model, can be best used to satisfy those requirements. The analysis requirements when developing corridor incident management strategies are described as the concepts, functions, and capabilities of corridor simulation models. A case study is presented to provide an understanding of the corridor-analysis process, to discuss the difficulties involved, and to suggest the necessary precautions to take during analysis.
