Bay Area Simulation and Ramp Metering Study

Abstract: 

This research project focuses on the investigation of a portion of the southbound morning peak I-680 freeway facility, between I-580 in Pleasanton and SR 237 in San Jose. The project provided an opportunity for testing the Paramics model capabilities to replicate freeway traffic conditions, and assess to what extend the existing model can simulate  various operational strategies such as HOV lanes and ramp metering.
