Traffic Engineering 4th Edition by Roger P. Roess, Elena S. Prassas and William R. McShane focuses on the key engineering skills required to practice traffic engineering in a modern setting. It includes material on the latest standards and criteria of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (2003 Edition and forthcoming 2010 Edition), the Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (2004 Edition), the Highway Capacity Manual (2000 Edition and forthcoming 2010 Edition), and other critical references.
It also presents both fundamental theory and a broad range of applications to modern problems. Critical blend of theory and methodology shows students the direct application of traffic engineering concepts to real-world situations. Accessible format gives students a clear and logical presentation. Numerous sample problems and illustrations demonstrate the procedures and methodologies as they are used in practice.
Important computer programs demonstrate solutions throughout the text. Coverage of underlying models highlights delay prediction, saturation flow rates, and the capacity of various types of facilities. Presentation of signalization and signal analysis explains the underlying principles of the models that are used. Emphasis on modern data collection tools and methodologies provides students with the details of how modern technology is used in the collection, reduction, and analysis of data.
This edition of the textbook adds a significant amount of material, including, but not limited to material from the latest editions of key traffic engineering references, including the Traffic Engineering Handbook, the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices, the Traffic Signal Timing Handbook, and the Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets.
