Title: MEASURING THE IMPACT OF A NEW URBAN HIGHWAY ON COMMUNITY TRAFFIC
Abstract: FIVE PRIMARY METHODS FOR PREDICTING THE IMPACT OF A NEW HIGHWAY ON LOCAL OR COMMUNITY TRAFFIC ARE DESCRIBED: INFERENCES FROM THE MODELING SYSTEM OF THE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING PROCESS; MICRO-ASSIGNMENT MODELS; SUBJECTIVE EVALUATIONS; DIRECT MEASUREMENTS OF TOTAL LOCAL TRAFFIC VOLUMES; AND DIRECT MEASUREMENTS OF LOCAL TRAFFIC ADJUSTMENTS. DIFFERENT URBAN STRUCTURES MAY REFLECT THE NEED FOR MORE THAN ONE MEANS OF EVALUATION; ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES SUCH AS THOSE MENTIONED SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED TO TEST THEIR VALIDITY AND TO ESTABLISH GUIDELINES FOR APPLICATION. /AUTHOR/
