Abstract:

In this study the researchers traced freeway ramp design speed criteria contained in current American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) design policies through roughly 50 years of technical literature. It was seen that TxDOT ramp design speed criteria are, essentially, the AASHTO criteria. The origins of driver deceleration rates, which are built into AASHTO criteria, are the experimental studies performed during the late 1930s.
