TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2173 contains 16 papers that explore the effects of wait time and rain intensity on driver left-turn gap acceptance behavior, left turns from major streets with shared short lanes at two-way stop-controlled intersections, level of service, arrival flow profiles and platoon dispersion for urban street segments, modified critical movement analysis approach for signalized intersections, and signalized intersections with short left-turn pockets. This issue of the TRR also examines a new methodology for estimating performance on two-lane highways, left-turn spillover impact on through movement at signalized intersections, consistency of stochastic capacity estimations, left-turn saturation flow rates and capacity at signalized intersections, using clustering methods to categorize freeway flow conditions, assessing the benefits of incident management systems, control delay at signalized diamond interchanges considering internal queue spillback, and pedestrian delay at signalized intersections with a two-stage crossing design.
