The goal is to…

1-2.1: Supply-Side Management of Auto Traffic

Principal Investigator Srinivasa Sunkari, P.E., PMP Final Report (DOI) View Final Report TRID View TRID #2026128 Policy Brief View Policy Brief Abstract Many traffic signals frequently experience oversaturated conditions. Such conditions cause significant delay and queue backups. When traffic signals are closely spaced, queues from downstream signals can back up to upstream signals. Such a…
