The research project examined certain effects of converting the Interstate 30 (I-30) frontage roads in the central Arkansas area from two-way operation to one-way operation in 2002. The following characteristics before and after the conversion were studied: the number of crashes; traffic volumes; speeds; travel times between nodes; land use; sales taxes for certain businesses; and the opinions of business owners and operators in the corridor.

The main objectives of this study were to develop procedures for estimating the level of service on freeway frontage roads and to determine desirable spacings for ramp junctions. The tasks involved developing (1) procedures for analyzing frontage road weaving sections, (2) recommended spacing requirements for ramp junctions, and (3) a technique to evaluate overall operations on a continuous frontage road section. The two weaving segments analyzed included a one-sided weaving area formed by an exit ramp followed by an entrance ramp and connected by an auxiliary lane and a two-sided weaving area formed by an exit ramp followed by a downstream signalized intersection.

The objective of the research was to develop a procedure for evaluating the operations along one-way and twoway freeway frontage roads. The developed procedure is based on the arterial analysis chapter of the Highway Capacity Manual and includes consideration of the delays that are incurred at ramp junctions. To develop the level-of-service analysis procedure, data were collected at several locations within Texas. Travel time, volume, and access density data were collected at 20 one-way frontage road sites and nine two-way frontage road sites. Delay data were collected at six ramp junctions. The results showed that signalized intersections have the greatest impact on the operations along a frontage road. Access density (i.e., the number of driveways and unsignalized intersections per km) affects the operations along a frontage road segment when greater than 20 acs/km on one-way frontage roads and greater than 16 acs/km on two-way frontage roads. The developed procedure produced reasonable results when compared to the average speed measured at six one-way and six two-way frontage road sites. Predicted results were generally within 3 km/in of measured speeds.

This guide replaces the 1984 publication entitled An Informational Guide for Roadway Lighting. It has been revised and brought up to date to reflect current practices in roadway lighting. The guide provides a general overview of lighting systems from the point of view of the transportation departments and recommends minimum levels of quality. The guide incorporates the illuminance and luminance design methods, but does not include the small target visibility (STV) method.
