Intro to Highway Capacity Analysis (State, Fed, and Private Organizations)

Workshop | Available

WHAT THIS IS ABOUT
This course will introduce participants to the basic concepts and principles of highway capacity analysis. The methodologies established by the most recent edition of the Transportation Research Board's Highway Capacity Manual, will be addressed, with an overview provided of the terms and concepts used throughout the HCM and the procedures for the capacity of urban streets, two-lane highways, multilane highways, unsignalized intersections, signalized intersections, and freeway facilities. The course will also describe the use of microsimulation packages in capacity analysis, and will contrast these with the HCM approaches.


WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This course will benefit both transportation planners and engineers who are responsible for the design or operation of streets and highways. The methodologies introduced in the course are vital to the evaluation of proposed roadway changes to ensure that adequate capacity is provided in both present and future years. This course may also be useful to non-technical staff or supervisors who wish to learn more about the highway capacity process.
