Abstract:The level of service on the inbound Gulf Freeway during the morning peak period has been well documented as a result of research conducted by the Texas Transportation Institute in cooperation with the Texas Highway Department and the U.S, Bureau of Public Roads. In addition to the freeway studies, critical intersections on the arterial streets and freeway frontage road were studied and a capacity improvement was recommended at one very critical location. Several general techniques of studying freeway operations were also developed in order to complete the freeway analyses. The operational studies on the inbound Gulf Freeway pointed to the need for some form of freeway ramp control. An initial control study was conducted on a moderate scale in August 1964. The studies reported on herein are an extension of this research effort.
