Cabral, L., Kim, A. M., Parkins, J. R.
Cycling as a mode of transportation (i.e. utility cycling) has been given heavy attention and investment in North America over the last decade. It is perceived as an environmentally friendly way to travel, leading to benefits for health and traffic alleviation. This study examines the...

Development and evaluation of adaptive transit signal priority control with updated transit delay model
Download2019-11-12
Han, X., Li, P., Sikder, R., Qiu, Z., Kim, A.
Transit signal priority (TSP) strategies are widely used to reduce bus travel delay and to increase bus service reliability. State-of-the-art strategies enable dynamic (and optimal), rather than predetermined, TSP plans to reflect real-time traffic conditions. These dynamic plans are called...

Factors Affecting Classification of Road Segments into High-and Low-Speed Collision Regimes
Download2019-11-12
Gargoum, S., Li, Y., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A.
The safety of locations operating under high-speed conditions could significantly differ from that of locations operating under low-speed conditions. Therefore, different approaches must be adopted when analyzing and managing speed and safety at locations operating under different regimes....

Cabral, L., Kim, A. M., Shirgaokar, M.
Studies have shown that a network of safe, connected, and direct facilities can increase urban cycling levels. During summer 2017, the city of Edmonton, Canada, constructed nearly 20 kilometers of protected bicycle lanes on its core neighborhood streets. A rapid and coordinated network...

Relationship between road safety and mobile photo enforcement performance indicators: A case study of the city of Edmonton
Download2019-11-12
Li, R., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A., Gargoum, S.
Mobile photo enforcement (MPE) programs are commonly implemented to regulate speed and improve road safety. However, most previous research focuses mainly on validating the safety effects of MPE, with very minimal discussion on the enforcement performance indicators (EPIs). Therefore, the goal of...

Towards setting credible speed limits: Identifying factors that affect driver compliance on urban roads
Download2019-11-07
Gargoum, S. A., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A.
Road geometry, vehicle characteristics, and weather conditions are all factors that impact a driver’s perception of a safe or credible speed and, consequently, the driver’s decision on whether or not to comply with the posted speed limit. In fact, the role a road’s environment plays in a driver’s...
