Excessive speed is considered to be a major contributing factor to motor vehicle crashes and is thus an important focus of highway enforcement efforts. Automated speed enforcement programs have been widely applied outside the U.S. to address speeding-related safety problems. This literature...

The United States is experiencing dramatic growth in commercial vehicle truck travel on our nation's roadway system as well as critical shortages in truck parking. California ranks first in the nation's overall (private and public) commercial vehicle parking shortage. Recent estimates of the...

Increasingly, public transit authorities are harnessing advances in sensor, payment, and enforcement technologies to operate parking facilities more efficiently. In the short term, these innovations promise to enhance customer parking experiences, increase the effective supply of existing...

The integration of innovative technologies with traditional modal options in transit oriented developments (TODs) may be the key to providing the kind of high-quality transit service that can effectively compete with the automobile in suburban transit corridors. The EasyConnect II project...

This report documents the results of the first phase of a two-part project: (1) research and feasibility analysis and (2) the field operational test and research of a shared-use Segway HT, electric bicycle, and bicycle rental model linked to a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) District station and...

To help guide applications of more advanced models in policy studies, this paper presents an evaluation of model accuracy and induced demand in an integrated land use and transportation model, the 2000 Sacramento MEPLAN model. The model is currently used by the region's metropolitan planning...

California led the nation by passing the first global warming legislation in the U.S. California is tasked with reducing green house gas (GHG) emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and 80% below 1990 levels by 2050. The California Air Resources Board estimates that significant GHG reductions from...

Smart parking management technologies may provide a cost-effective tool to address near-term parking constraints at transit stations. Smart parking management systems have been implemented in numerous European, British, and Japanese cities to more efficiently use parking capacity at transit...
