Optimal Scheduling of Transport Improvements to Cater for Growing Traffic Congestion
Key Points
The aim is to determine how to schedule transport improvements to effectively manage future traffic congestion.
Applied models to analyze traffic flow changes.
Examined the duplication of a shipping berth.
Assessed the integration of new urban and rural roads.
Identified optimal timing for transport projects.
Recommended infrastructure changes to mitigate growing congestion.
Highlighted the need for adaptive planning in transport scheduling.
Abstract
Future changes in traffic flows must be considered in the timing of transport projects. The authors apply their models to duplication of a shipping berth and to new urban and rural roads.
