A Study on Freeway Weaving Section Analysis
고속도로의 엇갈림 구간 분석에 관한 연구
Abstract
We examine primarily the existing study procedures for freeway weaving section by comparing speed estimates. Most methods have poor predictions because of neglecting the weaving vehicle influ-ence. In this study we develop the speed prediction equation considering the weaving influence area i.e, weaving box. Assuming that speeds outside weaving box are similar to speeds in freeway basic sec-tions we develop speed equation in box based on the field data. Moreover level of service criteria and weaving analysis precedure are proposed under the new speed prediction equation.
