The use and application of microsimulation traffic models
Microsimulation traffic models (MSTMs) have in recent years become accepted as useful tools amongst road and transport authorities to analyse and identify solutions for traffic and transport planning. The synergy between information technologies and…
Softening Point of Polymer Modified Binders
This test method sets out the procedure for determination of the softening point of polymer modified binders.
Morphology of Crumb Rubber - Bulk Density Test
This method describes a procedure for determining the bulk density of crumb rubber in the size range 600 to 300 µm.
Ease of Remixing of Polymer Modified Binders
This method describes a procedure for determining whether a PMB can be easily returned to a homogeneous state after subjecting a sample of the PMB to an elevated temperature for a prolonged period. This ease of remixing is assessed by determining…
Economic Evaluation of Road Investment Proposals: Overtaking Lanes - An International Review
This report describes the results of a review of international literature undertaken in 2002 on the evaluation and application of intermittent overtaking lanes on two-way roads in rural traffic environments. This report also contains a comprehensive…
An Approach to the Validation of Road Traffic Noise Models
This document has been prepared by Austroads as a guide to the preparation and assessment of validation studies of traffic noise prediction models, and represents the final outcome of a project with the following key objectives: - the development of…
Traffic Flow Models Allowing for Pedestrians and Cyclists
In the past traditional traffic management has focused on motor vehicles with minimal consideration given to other road users such as pedestrians and cyclists. As a consequence pedestrians and cyclists can often experience mobility constraints and…
Forecasting Demand for Bicycle Facilities
This report examines methods by which demand for cycling under different conditions can be estimated, and provides a framework for analysing data to develop demand forecasts for bicycle use. The report is based on an international review of…
Improving Urban Transport Demand Models and their use
This report arose out of a need to improve Australia's urban transport modelling capability. It seeks to examine the failing of current transport modelling to meet demands, and to scope a range of priority topics for research and action to improve…
