A STUDY ON IMPACT OF STOCHASTIC TRAFFIC CAPACITY ON TRAVEL TIMES OF A ROAD NETWORK

Abstract

  In this study, a model which estimates stochastic traffic capacity from observed traffic data is presented. Stochastic capacities during winter and summer in cold region are then estimated by using observed traffic data by a model which is also presented in the present study. A traffic assignment model which has been developed by the authors is used for examining the impact of stochastic capacity on travel times in a road network.
