This paper proposes new algorithms of accessibility indices to analyze the connectivity of the Korean highway network. First of all, we find a transportation network that presents Korea's highway network in graphs in 2011 and 2017. And we analyze and compare the nation's highway network in 2011 and 2017 using concepts such as associated number, the relative distance, the accessibility, the degree of connectivity, the index of dispersion, the diameter of graph theory. To do this, an algorithm is presented which can easily obtain various accessibility indices from a given transportation network. Using the simulation results of this study, we can find city that is the center of traffic in the highway transportation network. In addition, cities that are included in the network but are relatively underdeveloped can be found and used as basic data for enhancing the connectivity of the nationwide traffic in the future. Moreover, the proposed algorithms of accessibility indices, which are modeled on highway transport networks, can help identify the accessibility space structure of each city and provide criteria for efficient and reasonable selection of alternatives in various regional planning processes, including transportation.

Incidents, which is unexpected unusual events such as traffic accidents, have increased on the most roads in Korea. The obstruction of a fluent traffic flow occurred by incidents causes the traffic congestion and decreases the capacity. The Wavelet technique was applied to detect the road section and the happening time of incidents on urban freeways in this study, and this technique has been widely used in many engineering fields such as an electrical engineering, etc. The availability and validity of the Wavelet technique to the detection of incidents was examined by the occupancy rate, the important element of traffic flows, which is extracted from the data of detectors installed on Seoul Urban freeways. Then, this result is compared to the California Algorithm and the Low-Pass Filtering Algorithm among basic present detection algorithms, which are based on the occupancy rate. As a result, the false alarm rate of this method was similar as that of the California algorithm and the Low-Pass Filtering algorithm, but the detection rate is higher.

서울 관악구 신림동에 위치한 강남순환도시고속도로 6-1공구, 이곳은 연장 155m의 터널을 뚫는 현장으로, 시공 초기인 현재는 발파작업이 한창 진행되고 있다. 발파작업은 다량의 폭약이 수시로 사용되는 만큼 위험성이 상당히 높은 공정 중 하나다. 하지만 이곳 현장의 모습을 보면 정말 위험공정이 맞나하는 의구심이 들게 된다. 그만큼 안전관리가 철저하다는 얘기다. 수차례에 걸친 시험발파를 통해 진동과 소음을 최소화한 발파작업이 이뤄지고 있으며, 작업 시 대응절차에 나서는 근로자들의 모습도 일사불란하기 그지없다. '안전'으로 터널공사의 새로운 교과서를 만들겠다는 이곳 현장을 찾아가 그들만의 특별한 안전활동을 살펴봤다.

The objective of this study is to evaluate traffic management strategies using Variable Message Signs(MCS) on urban freeways. It is well known that real-time information on traffic conditions increases driver's comfort, and reduces the risks of accidents if drivers are aware of the traffic situation in advance, they decide whether to divert from the freeway or continue on the planned route. The experimental data collected on the Olympic highway we have shown the following results : 1. when the information on both the congested freeway and uncontested diversion route is displayed on the variable message sign. an additional 1.7 percent of traffic diverted, which results in a 3.7 percent reduction in total travel time. 2 Compared with one Proposed VMS message of 'reduce the speed', the other Proposed VMS message of 'keep speed 70km/h' is found to be much more effective in reducing mean speed.

This paper discusses operational technique and effectiveness of Variable Speed Limits system that is implemented to control the traffic-flow on the Naebu Expressway. As the first step of the analysis, traffic data collected from vehicle detectors are corrected and smoothed. Applying a pattern analysis technique to the traffic data, the weekday traffic is classified into four different groups, and median of each group is calculated. Using three state variables, i.e., diverted traffic volume, average density and average speed, the conditions of roadway segments are determined. Computational outputs resulted from the application of the proposed model to the scenarios show that implementation of Variable Speed Limits system improved both safety and efficiency of the expressway. For the operational strategy, this paper also presents the change rate of the speed limit, and the effective duration of the speed limit according to the entering traffic volume.

본 논문은 현재 경찰청 및 각 지자체의 주도하에 수도권을 중심으로 새롭게 보급되고 있는 도시 교통 정보 시스템 (UTIS)과 국토해양부 및 한국 도로 공사 등을 중심으로 한 DSRC 기반의 교통 정보 시스템을 모두 활용하는 시스템 및 효율적인 경로탐색 알고리즘을 제안한다. 도시 교통 정보 시스템은 무선랜과 같은 프로토콜을 이용해서, 기존 단방향 방식인 TPEG의 주요 도로 위주의 제한된 교통 정보 단점을 극복하고 많은 지선를 포함한 교통 정보를 제공하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 운전자들이 단지 도심 내에서만 운전하는 것이 아니고 고속도로 등을 통해서 장거리 운전도 하기 때문에 고속도로 상의 DSRC 기반의 서비스도 동일 단말에서 지원해야 하나의 단말에서 다양한 서비스를 지원받을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문의 두 개의 다른 통신 모듈의 통합된 단말 시스템을 제안하고 기존에 제안된 UTIS 기반의 분산 경로 탐색 방식을 DSRC 기반의 고속도로 교통 정보를 활용해서 새로운 경로탐색 알고리즘을 제안한다. 또한 향후 추가적으로 이루어질 연구와 현재 다른 주체들의 주도로 이루어지는 서비스를 제도적으로 보완할 수 있는 방안도 제시한다.

Currently the highest speed limit on the road traffic congestion or because you can not cope with climate change to cause a traffic accident may be a factor. According to the Road Traffic Act as well as 20% to 50% in case of inclement weather, but the driver must slow speed left to the judgment of the difficulties, and to slow the vehicle and the relative velocity between the vehicle does not run longer be a big influence on the environment and safety. Thus, variable speed control for drivers on the road, specify the appropriate maximum speed limit in bad weather It keeps motorists slowed the run rate to prevent accidents or reduce the severity of accident damage is expected to be possible. The purpose of this study is the frequent traffic accidents Continuous Busan (City Freeway) around the variable speed control in the appropriate sections so that it can be done by analyzing the characteristics of traffic accidents were the severity of the accident. Highway and urban environment, the geometry of the structure because it has a lot of Curved planar point compared to wet and dry road surfaces by simulated rain wet had bom the more the speed the greater the risk of an accident was the result. Based on these results, the primary section, first urban highway tunnel, near the lamp, near Toll Plaza, near binary Outlet after considering various factors such as speed reduction is needed in the first period by conducting awareness and recognize the need for the participation of the driver and the future city installation and operation of highways in all sectors is expected to be expanded.

The urban highway, which is a motorway constructed to solve traffic issues, has the characteristic of extremely high damage to life during traffic accidents because the speed of vehicles is higher than typical roadways. In particular, because traffic accidents involving serious injuries hold a very important place among overall traffic accidents, analysis on factors affecting the occurrence of traffic accidents involving serious injuries must be considered with priority when establishing a reduction measure. Therefore, the study built a model that was capable of distinguishing the degree of the factors as part of microscopic analysis for investigating the complex effect of many elements concerning the occurrence of traffic accidents involving serious injuries in urban highways. The results are as follows. First, discriminant model showed a comparatively high level in overall accuracy rates, and, considering the correlation ratio, the models were determined to be valid, as all characteristics of the factors were clearly distinguished. Second, the problems of traffic accidents involving serious injuries on urban highways according to each factor, were clearly drawn out through the discriminant model. Third, the improvement measure for the problems drawn out from the discriminant models were clearly proposed.
