Abstract

This paper discusses the idea of a new type of transport mode, the high capacity motorway (HCM). The HCM is a design of a motorway, accessible for passenger cars and container wagons (i.e., containers with under-carriage). The design of the HCM is treated in four parts, the transport system itself, the traffic engineering aspects of the HCM, the HCM capacity and transmission from the HCM to traditional motorways and transferia. Japanese Ministry of Construction and OECD/Road Transport Research Programme held the seminar on "future road transport systems and infrastructures in urban areas" in Chiba, Japan on 4th - 6th June 1991 sponsored by the Japanese organizing committee.
