The effects of passing lanes on traffic flow on rural two-lane highways have been investigated in this research. Field study results were compared with the computer simulation model, TRARR, TRARR model appears to be in good agreement with field study results except that average speed and distribution of platoon sizes showed a small amount of discrepancy, which is believed to be caused by too large a headway definition of 6 second for a vehicle platoon. Using the TRARR model, 4 situations including the existing condition, installation of passing lanes, improvement of design speed, and expansion to a four lane highway were evaluated. Traffic volume levels of 500,1000, and 1500 vph and truck composition of 20 and 40% were also considered making a total of 24 computer runs. It is concluded in this research that the installation of passing lanes is the most effective method to improve traffic operation on two-lane high ways except the alternative of four lane highway expansion.

PURPOSES : This study was done to model the headway distribution of rural two lane roads. METHODS : Time headway data for the various level of traffic volumes was measured in twelve sites. Based on the time headway data, existing seven mathematical models were evaluated and selected by comparing graphically the measured and theoretical distributions and conducting the Chi-square test. RESULTS : The results show that both the Schul model and Composite Model were the most appropriate models of the models. Based on the measured time-headway distributions, this study proposed a new headway distribution model by the shift of the Schul model. CONCLUSIONS : The shifted Schul model has the ability to describe time headway distirbutons for random, intermediate, and constant-headway states.

PURPOSES: The purpose of this study is to develop a methodology to prioritize sidewalk construction on rural national highways. METHODS : In order to determine an appropriate prioritization for sidewalk construction, we developed a specific methodology. The proposed methodology includes three main steps: 1) Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods, 2) Subjective evaluation of relevant road agencies for the candidate sidewalks along rural national highways, and 3) Field study conduction. Each step has four phases. The primary feature of this methodology is the addition of expert consultation and survey data, as well as a field study. In addition, the method could guarantee flexibility in selection for evaluation criteria. As a result, the proposed methodology could be used as a general procedure for application to other roadway classifications when considering sidewalk construction. RESULTS: In order to demonstrate the reasonableness of the proposed methodology, a case study was performed for exactly 100 candidate sites for sidewalk construction on rural national highways. All required evaluation scores were properly produced for each candidate site. By doing so, decision-makers can determine the priority for sidewalk construction at these sites by reviewing quantitatively and qualitatively considered data. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the case study can be applied to a long-term fundamental plan for sidewalk construction on rural national highways. Furthermore, this methodology could be employed to prioritize a small-scale SOC project(e. g. bicycle or pedestrian roads).

PURPOSES : Ambiguous decision on whether rural or urban area for road design can increase the construction cost and restrict the land use of surrounding area. However, administrative classification on rural and urban area is not directly related to road design because of this classification is not based on the engineering viewpoint, so method which can explain the road design context is required. METHODS : Method which enables to identify the area for road design is suggested based on the deceleration expected to be experienced by drivers who use the road section concerned. Deceleration rate corresponding to the area such as rural or urban suggested in Road Design Guideline is used as the criteria to identify the area by comparing this value with the estimated deceleration rate at the road section concerned. Speed profile method is utilized to derive the deceleration rate, and speed estimation way for reflecting both road geometry and intersection is suggested using stopping sight distance concept. RESULTS : The procedure of the method application is suggested, and the design example utilizing the method is provided. CONCLUSIONS : The method is expected to be used to identify the area for road design with engineering viewpoint, and design consistency among the roads with similar driving environment can be made.

도로기하구조정보는 도로의 안전성평가 및 도로의 유지관리를 위한 필수적인 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 GPS(Global Positioning System)/INS(Inertial Navigation System)센서가 탑재된 조사차량을 이용하여 기하구조정보를 수집하였으며, 수집된 차량의 자세정보 중 평면선형과 관련된 Roll, Heading 자료를 이용하여 직선, 원곡선, 완화곡선을 구분하는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서는 평면선형 인식 이전에 전처리 과정으로 이동평균법을 통하여 자료를 평활화함으로써 원시자료의 이상치를 제거하여 평면선형 인식의 신뢰성을 제고하였다. 유전알고리즘(GA, Genetic Algorithm)을 이용하여 분류정확도(CCR, Correct Classification Rate)를 최대로 하는 알고리즘 파라미터를 설정한 결과 100%의 분류정확도를 보였다. 설정된 파라미터를 이용하여 고속도로와 국도 주행자료를 이용하여 알고리즘을 평가한 결과 90.48%와 88.24%의 분류정확도를 보여, 제안된 평면선형인식 알고리즘은 현장에서 적용 시 높은 신뢰도를 가지는 정보를 제공 가능한 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 평면선형인식 알고리즘은 조사차량에 GPS/INS센서의 소프트웨어로 탑재되어 도로 및 교통기술자에게 도로기하구조정보를 보다 용이하게 수집하고 분석할 수 있는 환경을 제공하는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

최근 자전거이용에 대한 관심이 증가하면서, 전국적으로 자전거도로 확충을 계획하고 자전거 이용 활성화를 위해 많은 노력이 이루어지고 있으나 대부분의 계획들은 도시부와 레저형 자전거도로에 치우쳐 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지방부의 생활형 자전거도로 사업의 효율적인 투자를 위한 우선순위를 결정할 수 있는 평가기법을 개발하고자 한다. 먼저 평가지표 개발을 위해 지방부 생활형 자전거도로의 특성을 반영하고 정량화가 가능하여 객관적으로 평가할 수 있는 지표를 선정하였으며, 평가지표의 가중치를 산출하기 위하여 계층화분석법을 사용하였다. 또한, 평가항목의 결과만을 기준으로 사업의 우선순위를 평가할 경우 대도시 중심으로 우선순위가 분포되는 경우가 발생할 것으로 판단되어 지역적 형평성(지역균형발전효과)을 고려하기 위해 지역낙후도지수를 고려하였다. 지방부 생활형 자전거도로의 우선순위를 선정하기 위해 시범 적용된 일반국도 구간은 총 23개 구간 160km의 연장으로 구성되어 있다. 본 연구에서 제시된 지방부 생활형 자전거도로 우선순위 평가방법은 지금까지 없었던 생활형 자전거도로에 대한 구체적인 판단기준을 제시하고 정책적 의사결정에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

Since 2000, family tour has increased a lot by effect of five-day workweek in South Korea. So, it became much needed road station. however road station's facilities are lacking. Recently, there is a growing emphasis on rural regional activation. So the government is concentrating in rural policy. In Japan case study, Road Station(RS, Michinoeki) make regional activation by Road station service. Rs is rest area for motor driver in rural area. In general, it is construct at rural roads, not a highway. In this paper, we hope to take a lesson from the RS case study. 2015, 2016, in japan, we visited to 7 case study and interviewed to a staff. As a result, In Japan's Rs was offering convenient services to motor driver and raising farmers's profits by selling local produce. The aim of that this paper is to suggest to Korean Type's Rs. There are five results from this paper as follows : First, Japan Rs, it works well to improve in regional activation in rural area. Two, Also Rs has to community facilities attached to the culture, welfare, library etc. Three, 5 Korean Type Rs can sort out. There are Community type, Joint tourism type, 6th industrialization type, Urban-Rural Interchange type, Shopping center type. This RS is introduced to Korea hopes to contribute to the regional activation in rural area.

PURPOSES : The causes of traffic accidents can be classified into the factors of highway users, vehicles, and driving environments. Traffic accidents result from the deficiency in single or combination of these three factors. The objective of this study is to define the "potentially hazardous sections of highway" in terms of traffic safety considering these three factors. METHODS : The test drivers performed repeated driving on these highway sections. The drivers and passengers recorded the sections on which the driving was uncomfortable, and the speeds on the sections excluding the uncomfortable sections were used for the development of the model. RESULTS : The model is composed of three sub-models for each of the horizontal curve, tangent, and the section where the curve starts/ends. The safe driving behavior coefficients by the horizontal curvature were derived by comparing the maximum operating speeds at which the vehicle may slide or deviate and the speeds at which the drivers feel comfort. The safety speeds on tangent were derived by the length of tangent section considering the driver's desired speeds under the traffic condition on which the drivers hardly influenced by the other vehicles. For the sections where the curve starts/ends, the driving behaviors were classified by the distances between the curves, and the safe acceleration/deceleration speeds were derived on which the drivers enter/exit the curve sections safely. CONCLUSIONS : Safety speed could then be regarded that the model suggested in this study may be useful to define the potentially hazardous highway section and contribute the improvement of highway safety.
