The objective of this project was to develop system designs for programs to monitor travel time reliability and to prepare a guidebook that practitioners and others can use to design, build, operate, and maintain such systems. Generally, such travel time reliability monitoring systems are built on top of existing traffic monitoring systems. The focus of this project was on travel time reliability. The data from the monitoring systems developed in this project – from both public and private sources –included, wherever cost-effective, information on the seven sources of non-recurring congestion. This data was used to construct performance measures or to perform various types of analyses useful for operations management as well as performance measurement, planning, and programming. The work on Project L02 began with a research phase. The primary results of Project L02 research were a guidebook and a final report. An additional contribution of the research showed that it may be possible to add the variability of travel time from one segment to another. Another contribution of the research was the development of a queuing point model, an application that analytically determines travel time reliability over a freeway segment. The supporting zip file contains case study datasets for SHRP 2 Report S2-L02-RR1: Establishing Monitoring Programs for Travel Time Reliability, https://rosap.ntl.bts.gov/view/dot/4039 The files are in comma separated value (.csv) format.

The objective of this project was to develop technical relationships between reliability improvement strategies and reliability performance metrics. This project defined reliability, explained the importance of travel time distributions for measuring reliability, and recommended specific reliability performance measures. The research reexamined the contribution of the various causes of nonrecurring congestion on urban freeway sections, however, some attention was also given to rural highways and urban arterials). Numerous actions that can potentially reduce nonrecurring congestion were identified with an indication of their relative importance. Models for predicting nonrecurring congestion were developed using three methods, all based on empirical procedures: The first involved before and after studies; the second was termed a 'data poor' approach and resulted in a parsimonious and easy-to-apply set of models; the third was entitled a 'data rich model' and used cross-section inputs including data on selected factors known to directly affect nonrecurring congestion. An important conclusion of the study is that actions to improve operations, reduce demand, and increase capacity all can improve travel time reliability.

This project focused specifically on design treatments that can be used to improve travel time reliability. The objectives of this research were to (1) identify the full range of possible roadway design features used by transportation agencies to improve travel time reliability and reduce delays from key causes of nonrecurrent congestion, (2) assess their costs and operational and safety effectiveness, and (3) provide recommendations for their use and eventual incorporation into appropriate design guides. This research generated two companion products that allow transportation agencies and professionals to apply these research findings effectively in daily practice. These products are the Design Guide for Addressing Nonrecurrent Congestion, which is a catalogue of the design elements and their associated use information, and the Analysis Tool for Design Treatments to Address Nonrecurring Congestion, which is a tool to execute the various analysis procedures and models to measure the effectiveness of a design element on travel time reliability. This zip file contains comma separated value (.csv) files of data to support SHRP 2 Report S2-L07-RR-1, Identification and Evaluation of the Cost-Effectiveness of Highway Design Features to Reduce Nonrecurrent Congestion, https://rosap.ntl.bts.gov/view/dot/4040 The compressed zip file is 12 MB.

The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) historically has been among the most important reference guides used by transportation professionals seeking a systematic basis for evaluating the capacity, level of service, and performance measures for elements of the surface transportation system, particularly highways but also other modes. The objective of this project was to determine how data and information on the impacts of differing causes of nonrecurrent congestion (incidents, weather, work zones, special events, etc.) in the context of highway capacity can be incorporated into the performance measure estimation procedures contained in the HCM. The methodologies contained in the HCM for predicting delay, speed, queuing, and other performance measures for alternative highway designs are not currently sensitive to traffic management techniques and other operation/design measures for reducing nonrecurrent congestion. A further objective was to develop methodologies to predict travel time reliability on selected types of facilities and within corridors. This project developed new analytical procedures and prepared chapters about freeway facilities and urban streets for potential incorporation of travel-time reliability into the HCM. The methods are embodied in two computational engines, and a final report documents the research. This zip file contains comma separated value (.csv) files of data to support SHRP 2 report S2-L08-RW-1, Incorporating travel time reliability into the Highway Capacity Manual. Zip size is 1.83 MB.
