Book Description
This report provides guidance on the planning, design, operation, and enforcement of HOV Facilities. The report was prepared in two volumes and both volumes are used as textbooks in a two-day training course. Volume I is a stand-alone document that creates an awareness of the need for HOV projects and depicts various HOV treatments. Volume II is a complementary document that provides warrants for selecting potential HOV treatments.

ISBN:
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
This design guide has been developed for the purpose of helping to achieve the following transportation systems management (TSM) goals: To maximize the person-moving capacity of roadway facilities by providing improved operating level of service for high occupancy vehicles (HOVs), both public and private; To conserve fuel and to minimize consumption of other resources needed for transportation; To improve air quality; and To increase overall accessibility while reducing vehicular congestion. Part I deals with HOV options in terms of planning and operations; Part II deals with design criteria for HOV options on freeways; and Part III deals with design criteria for HOV options on surface arterial streets.

Book Description
This report describes research sponsored by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to develop a decision-support tool to aid in evaluating key issues related to converting a high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane to a high-occupancy/toll (HOT) lane. The tool includes three broad categories of factors to consider, including facility considerations, performance considerations, and institutional considerations. Finally, the research incorporates simple trade-off tools to allow TxDOT and local entities to assemble all relevant factors into an analysis to aid decision makers in evaluating the available options. The analysis tool was developed in Visual Basic.Net®. the program is called the High-Occupancy/Toll STrategic Analysis Rating Tool (HOT START), and it is designed to be easily tailored to local needs. The report also provides an application of the tool to a hypothetical freeway.

ISBN:
Category : Bus lanes
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
This report presents the examination of historical trends and current experiences with high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) projects in six selected case study sites. HOV facilities in Houston, Texas; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Orange County, California; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Seattle, Washington; and Washington D.C./Northern Virginia are examined. In addition, available information on other HOV projects located on freeways or in separate rights-of--way is reviewed. The report presents one part of a three-year assessment of HOV projects in North America. The report includes an examination of historical information on utilization levels, operating characteristics, and impacts of the HOV projects.
