Currently, the HCM only provides an option to meter on-ramps as user input using 15-min average flow rates with a focus on planning-level analyses. As a result, the possibilities for simulating and modeling ramp meters with any traffic responsive ramp metering algorithm in the HCM context are limited. Moreover, the freeway facilities methodology in the HCM plays a vital role in the analysis of travel time reliability, which is built on a set of operational scenarios. However, with the lack of traffic responsive ramp metering, analysts are burdened with the task of manually entering average effective ramp metering rates for each on-ramp within the set of reliability scenarios. This process can require a substantial amount of time, in addition to increasing the potential for inaccuracy and bias in freeway and performance measure estimations. As a result, this paper is designed to fill a significant research gap by providing a method for analyzing traffic responsive (or adaptive) ramp metering, an active traffic and demand management strategy, using the core freeway facilities methodology in the HCM. The direct application of the method focuses on the MaxView metering algorithm. However, the proposed framework can be used to model any traffic responsive ramp metering algorithm. The results are validated using real-world sites located on the I-540 westbound freeway corridor in North Carolina.}, number={12}, journal={TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH RECORD}, author={Aghdashi,

increasingly focused on measuring and tracking performance outcomes. However, identifying how quantifiable outcomes—such as international roughness index ratings—influence less tangible outcomes—such as user satisfaction with a roadway—can be challenging. This paper outlines a method that enables researchers to compare stakeholder perceptions of assets with actual field-measured data for roadways. More than 350 residents in six locations in the state of North Carolina were surveyed about how those residents perceived and prioritized the roadway assets managed by the North Carolina Department of Transportation. Using a method termed “roadway reviews,” researchers asked participants about state-maintained roads as the participants were driven on those roads in real time; these surveys were supplemented with focus groups. In addition to identifying how well asset conditions on roadway segments aligned with the basic expectations of roadway users, researchers determined how these ratings compared with field measurements for the segments and captured how participants ranked the importance of specific roadway assets for overall condition, safety, and appearance. The findings will be used to improve asset management practice and will be integrated into the North Carolina Department of Transportation’s annual Highway Performance Monitoring System reports.}, number={2613}, journal={TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH RECORD}, publisher={Transportation Research Board of the National Academies}, author={Davis, Joy and Cunningham, Chris and Findley, Daniel and Searcy, Sarah and Martin, James and Watkins, Lonnie}, year={2017}, pages={16–28} } @book{findley_davis_horner_gallert_small_2016, title={Analysis of the Economic Impacts of Extending the Runway at Rowan County Airport}, institution={North Carolina Department of Transportation}, author={Findley, D.J. and Davis, J.C. and Horner, T. and Gallert, C. and Small, J.D.}, year={2016}, month={Dec} } @book{cunningham_findley_davis_aghdashi_kim_2016, title={Evaluation of Life Cycle Impacts of Intersection Control Type Selection}, number={FHWA/NC 2014-11}, institution={North Carolina Department of Transportation}, author={Cunningham, C.M. and Findley, D.J. and Davis, J.C. and Aghdashi, B.S. and Kim, S.}, year={2016}, month={May} } @book{davis_2016, title={Intersection Life Cycle Cost Comparison Tool User Guide}, number={FHWA/NC 2014-11}, institution={North Carolina Department of Transportation}, author={Davis, J.C.}, year={2016}, month={May} } @book{cunningham_davis_aghdashi_chase_nye_kim_2016, title={Planning Level Evaluation of the Effects of Ramp Metering on North Carolina Freeways}, number={FHWA/NC 2016-11}, institution={North Carolina Department of Transportation}, author={Cunningham, C.M. and Davis, J.C. and Aghdashi, B.S. and Chase, T. and Nye, T. and Kim, S.}, year={2016}, month={Dec} } @book{cunningham_findley_davis_searcy_martin_2016, title={Public Opinions of Roadway Assets Using Roadway Reviews and Focus Groups}, number={FHWA/NC 2016-04}, institution={North Carolina Department of Transportation}, author={Cunningham, C.M. and Findley, D.J. and Davis, J.C. and Searcy, S. and Martin, J.}, year={2016}, month={Aug} } @book{findley_davis_searcy_conrad_horner_gallert_2016, title={Southwest High Point Greenway Economic Impact Study}, institution={Southwest Renewal Foundation}, author={Findley, D.J. and Davis, J.C. and Searcy, S. and Conrad, C. and Horner, T. and Gallert, C.}, year={2016}, month={Dec} } @book{hartley_davis_frankland_2015, place={Tamil Nadu, India}, title={The First 1,000 days Mother and Child Nutrition Pilot Project July 2014-July 2015}, institution={Salt of the Earth and Social Change and Development}, author={Hartley, K. and Davis, J.C. and Frankland, M.}, year={2015}, month={Aug} } @book{nowell_steelman_faas_velez_davis_fitzgerald_hano_2014, title={2013 Fire Season Findings Reports: 21 Evaluative Studies}, institution={Fire Chasers: Improving Community Response to Wildfires Project}, author={Nowell, B. and Steelman, T. and Faas, A.J. and Velez, A.K. and Davis, J.C. and FitzGerald, C. and Hano, M.C.}, year={2014} } @book{davis_2014, place={Cary, NC}, title={An Examination of the Town of Cary’s Door-to-Door Transit Service Options: A Cost-Benefit Analysis}, institution={Town of Cary}, author={Davis, J.C.}, year={2014}, month={May} } @book{davis_2014, place={Tamil Nadu, India}, title={Effectively Managing and Monitoring Research Projects}, institution={Social Change and Development}, author={Davis, J.C.}, year={2014}, month={Jul} }
