• Abstract:
  Recent national developments will have a potentially significant impact on the traffic monitoring program conducted by Texas and the other States. The most important of these are the implementation of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Traffic Monitoring (TM) Guide and the traffic data portions of the experimental designs prepared for use in the Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) monitoring element of the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP). The objectives of this study were: (1) To assess the potential impacts of the FHWA TM Guide and the SHRP Long Term Pavement Performance monitoring requirements upon the Department's traffic monitoring programs; (2) To develop alternatives for meeting these requirements; (3) To develop a plan for implementing the alternative or combination of alternatives selected by the Department; (4) To determine if changes are needed in the guidelines presented by the Traffic Monitoring Guide; if so, to submit recommendations for those changes to the FHWA.
