GETTING THE MOST OUT OF A FREEWAY SYSTEM

A C Estep, Karl Moskowitz

Abstract

Responsibility for the operations, operational analysis, and planning of operational improvements of the California state highway system lies with the Department of Transportation. These three activities are defined, and their application in a program to upgrade and control the Los Angeles freeway network is discussed. Methods of controlling freeway traffic (ramp metering, freeway widening, new construction) are described.
