본 연구는 현행 오르막차로 설계기준이 적정한지를 검증하고 오르막차로 설계기준 제시에 목적을 두고 있다. 오르막차로와 본선에 대한 현장의 속도분포와 화물차량의 합류형태를 바탕으로 오르막차로 설계기준을 검증하고 개발하였으며, 주요 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 설계속도 120km/h에서 화물차의 50백분위비율과 85백분율은 각각 66km/h와 76km/h로 나타났기 때문에 현행 설계속도 80km/h 이상의 구간에서 화물차의 허용최저속도를 60km/h로 규정하고 있는 것을 설계속도 기준을 세분화하여 설계속도가 100km/h 이상인 구간에서는 화물차의 허용최저 속도를 70km/h로 함이 타당한 것으로 도출되었다. 둘째, 설계속도 80km/h인 구간에서의 화물차 허용최저속도는 60km/h로 규정한 것이 적정하다고 확인되었다. 셋째, 설계속도 80km/h 미만의 구간에서 화물차의 허용최저속도는 설계속도에서 20km/h를 감한값을 사용하는데, 이 때 20km/h 감속을 한계속도 기준으로 사용하는 것이 적정하다고 확인되었다.

Understanding the characteristics of truck-involved crashes is of keen interest because such crashes are highly associated with greater potential leading to severer injury. The purpose of this study is to identify factors affecting injury severity of truck-involved crashes on freeways. In addition, a binary logistic regression technique is applied to identify causal factors affecting truck crash severity under normal and adverse weather conditions. Major findings from the analyses are discussed with truck operations strategies including speed enforcement, variable speed limit, and truck lane restriction, from the safety enhancement point of view. The results of this study would be useful for developing traffic control and operations strategies to reduce truck-involved crashes and injury severity in practice.

In Korea, interest in truck platooning is increasing because most cargo transportation is done by road. Truck platooning is the operation of two or more trucks in a row to form one platoon, which can increase road capacity and improve fuel efficiency. In this study, to analyze the effect of truck platooning on traffic flow, scenarios were created according to traffic conditions and truck platooning operating conditions. In order to understand the effect of the truck platooning operating conditions, correlation analysis was conducted with the average travel speed, the number of lane change disturbance, and the number of disturbance in the entry/exit section. As a result, the number of trucks in the platoon, the spacing of trucks in the platoon, and the spacing between platoons were found to have an effect on the average speed and the number of lane change disturbance In addition, the truck platooning ratio was found to have a strong correlation with the average travel speed and the number of lane change disturbance regardless of the LOS.

Considering the need for an infrastructure-level review, this study analyzed the impact of truck platooning on freeway traffic flow and the effect of dedicated lanes based on domestic road and traffic conditions. According to the study, the higher traffic volume and truck ratio, the higher ratio of platoons and the greater size of platoons are formed, which results in greater effect of increasing the average speed of the network. Therefore, the routes with heavy traffic and heavy cargo traffic could be positively considered for truck platooning. However, the analysis showed that the effect of increasing the average speed of the entire network is difficult to expect in the event of a queue due to entry and exit, and that the overall network's throughput could be reduced. Therefore, traffic operation strategies associated with the access road, such as securing capacity of the connection, are needed to maximize the effect of truck platooning. When it comes to the effect of dedicated lane, it could have a positive effect only if one lane was fully operated by automated trucks under the condition of 100% MPR, which allowed positive effects in all aspects, such as higher average speed, throughput, and reduced conflict rates.

In general, truck-involved crashes increase severity in terms of both injury level and crash impact level. Recently, although the frequency and fatality of truck-involved crashes in Korea are rising, their associative studies are very limited. Therefore, the objective of this study is to identify critical factors influencing on injury severity of truck-involved crashes on Korean freeway system. To carry out this objective, this study uses an ordered probit model (OPM) based on a 6-year crash dataset from 2012 to 2017. From the analysis, eight variables were found to have a great effect on injury severity: older driver, crash speed, rear-end collision, number of vehicles involved, drowsy driving, nighttime (0:00 to 6:00) driving, overturn or rollover, and vehicle's fire after crash. However, injury severity was less severe in crashes under snowy condition and crashes to traffic facilities (i.e., crash alone).

This study aims to develop a truck priority on left-turn algorithm that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing heavy duty truck's stops at signalized intersection. The signal priority is granted for a left-turn phase, because heavy duty trucks can deteriorate left-turn traffic flow due to the low acceleration or deceleration rate and large turn radius. Truck priority allows to provide the stable speed control for heavy duty truck, and reduces emissions at the signal intersection. Also, two signal recovery strategies are compared for various traffic conditions. This study analyzes the effectiveness of truck priority such as greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumption reduction, and total travel time saving using the PARAMICS and Comprehensive Modal Emissions Model (CMEM). The results show that signal priority for heavy duty trucks has an effect on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumptions at non-peak hour. Also, it shows decreasing total travel time due to reducing truck stops.

경찰청 자료에 따르면 한국에서 사망 교통 사고의 75.5%는 화물차 사고이다. 한국에서 화물차 사고로 숨지는 사람은 매년 약 1000명이며, 매일 2~3명이 화물차 사고로 사망한다. 한국의 화물노동자들은 화물차 사고가 끊이지 않는 이유로 열악한 노동조건을 응답하고 있다. COVID 19는 비대면 물류 수요를 증가시키고 있다. COVID 19로 인하여 급격하게 증가한 물류 수요는 기존의 낙후된 물류 기술과 낙후된 물류 시스템으로 인하여 운송 과정의 비효율성을 나타내고 있다. 이러한 한국 운송 시스템의 비효율성은 영세 물류 개인 사업자들에 대한 과도한 업무 부담으로 이어지고 있으며, 한국 운송 시스템의 비효율성은 2020년 이후 급격하게 증가한 물류 산업 재해 사망자 수로 나타나고 있다. CIPs에 입주한 한국 중소 기업들은 별도의 스마트 출입 인증 시스템을 갖추지 못하고 있는 경우가 많으며, 이로 인하여 최종 목적지인 출입 단계에서 많은 운송 시간들이 낭비되고 있다. 스마트 출입 인증 시스템 아키텍쳐를 통하여 영세 물류 개인 택배 사업자는 법적 안정성 개선 효과를 얻을 수 있으며, CIPs 중소 기업들은 물류 운송 시간을 단축하는 효과를 얻을 수 있다. CIPs스마트 출입 시스템은 현재 활성화되어 있는 Mobile OTP를 활용하므로, 시스템 설계 비용을 크게 절감할 수 있으며, 개별 휴대폰 단말기에 발생하는 Data용량 부담을 크게 줄이고, 개별 휴대폰 단말기의 응답 속도를 개선할 수 있다. 또한 기존에 다양하게 활용되던 OTP 체계와 호환성이 있으며, OTP 시스템의 오랜 사용 기간을 통한 시스템 신뢰성도 높다. 사용자 고객들의 OTP 시스템 이해도도 다른 스마트 출입 시스템에 비하여 높다.

Acceleration and deceleration curves have been used for design purposes worldwide. The curve in design level has been regarded as an single deterministic curve to be used for design of climb lanes. It should be noted that the curve was originally made using ideal driving truck and that the curve is applied during design based on the assumption of no difference between ideal and real driving conditions. However. observations show that aged vehicles and lazy behavioring drivers nay make lower performance of vehicles than the ideal performance. The present paper provides the results of truck speeds at climbing lanes then probabilistic variation of acceleration and deceleration corves. For these purposes. a study about identification of vehicle makers, and weights for trucks at freeway toll gates and then observation of vehicle-following speed were performed. The 85%ile results obtained were compared with the deterministic performance curves of 180, 200, and 220 Ib/hp. It was identified that the performance of 85%ile results obtained from vehicle-following-speed observations were lower than one from deterministic performance curves. From these results, it may be concluded that at the beginning Point of climbing lanes additional $16.19{\sim}67.94m$ is necessary and that at the end point of climbing lanes $53.12{\sim}103.24m$ of extension is necessary.
