Identification of Traffic Control Devices for Mobile and ShortDuration Work Operations(Tech brief)

Project Brief

<p>This report documents and summarizes the study &#39;Identification of Traffic Control Devices for Mobile and Short Duration Work Operations,&#39; for the New Jersey Department of Transportation. The study was conducted in three tasks: 1. Literature Search, 2. Evaluation Criteria and Analysis, and 3. Identify Guidelines to Eliminate Driver Inattentiveness, and Design Alternative Strategies and Techniques for Traffic Control.

Collaborative Exploratory Research on the Anticipatory Route Guidance Problem

Final Report

Advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) attempt to provide drivers with data intended to help them make better travel decisions. Messages may be available to all drivers (for example by radio or television broadcasts) or only to some: for example, those who pass near a particular infrastructure (such as variable message signs or VMS) or who have special receivers in their vehicles. Drivers, of course, may react to the messages in any way they choose.

Feasibility of Establishing a Virtual Container Yard to Optimize Empty Container Management

Project Objective:
  • Provide information about containers (status, location, etc.).
  • Facilitate communication between parties (motor carriers, ocean carriers, leasing companies, chassis pool operators), with a view to matching their needs.
  • Permit equipment interchange and other processes to take place without moving the container to the marine terminal.
  • Assist the parties to make optimal decisions regarding container logistics (return, reuse, interchange, etc.), rationalize moves, and plan ahead.
