The purpose of this book, written for first year graduate students, is to provide detailed information on the fundamentals of traffic flow. A chapter is provided on each traffic flow characteristic and associated analytical technique. Traffic flow characteristics include: time headway; flow; time-space projectory; speed; distance headway; and density. Traffic flow analytical techniques include: supply-demand modelling; capacity and level of service analysis; traffic stream modeling; shock wave analysis; queueing analysis and simulation modelling.
