Prediction Models for Incident Clearance Time for Borman Expressway

摘要

This research consisted of two parts: the report is Volume 1 of 2 Volumes; Volume2 is Report No. FHWA/IN/JHRP-96/11. The first part developed a set of incident clearance time prediction models for the Borman Expressway. The second part consisted of modeling driver's route choice behavior under the influence of advanced traveler information systems. Volume 1 of this report describes the incident clearance time prediction models for the Borman Expressway. The prediction of incident clearance time from these models can facilitate in efficient incident management and support traveler information systems. The products of this research project will be incorporated in the Advanced Traffic Management System that is being implemented on the Borman Expressway, a 16-mile segment of I-80 in northwest Indiana.
