Transportation as a system. Problems of traffic congestion, land use/transportation intersection; intersection control; freeway and arterial incident management; safety considerations; evaluation of strategies; case studies. View course on website
Processes and techniques for managing the preservation and expansion of highway transportation facilities such as pavements, bridges, and so forth, as well as system usage. Five component management systems are first examined: pavements, bridges, roadway maintenance, safety, and congestion. Finally, the methodology for overall transportation asset management is discussed. The primary emphasis is on data collection, life-cycle cost analysis, priority setting and optimization, program development strategies, risk and uncertainty modeling, and institutional issues.
