fatal crashes in work zones increased by 3%, while fatal crashes outside of work zones …

Traffic managers strive to have the most accurate information on road conditions, normally
by using sensors and cameras, to act effectively in response to incidents. The prevalence of …

Crash reduction factors are widely used by engineers for prioritizing safety investments.
Work zones are routinely analyzed by the length and duration of queues. Queue detection …

The aim of deploying intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is often to help engineers and
operators identify traffic congestion. The future of ITS-based traffic management is the …

The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has invested in private sector probe
vehicle data since 2011, enabling the analysis and real-time monitoring of the entire …

Traffic queues, especially queues caused by non-recurrent events such as incidents, are
unexpected to high-speed drivers approaching the end of queue (EOQ) and become safety …

Interstate crashes often result in significant queuing, which can lead to secondary crashes in
or at the back of the queue. These secondary crashes are of national concern and their …

ABSTRACT 1 Early detection of incidents is one of the key step to reduce incident-related
congestion. With the 2 increasing usage of GPS based navigation, promising data-scalable …

There are times when the traffic lanes through a work zone must be kept clear for activities
such as placing overhead beams, erecting overhead signs, and installing power lines, and …

In the near future, vehicles will be equipped to receive and broadcast Basic Safety
