Guidelines on the Use and Operation of Changeable Message Signs
Author: Conrad L. Dudek
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Highway communications
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
This report is intended to be a primer on the characteristics that affect the design, use and operations of changeable message signs (CMSs), and to provide guidance on the selection of the appropriate type of CMS display. Guidelines on the selection and design of CMS messages are presented in a companion report, Report No. FHWA/TX-92/1232-10 entitled "Guidelines on the Selection and Design of Messages for Changeable Message Signs". This report is an update and consolidation of the following reports: (1) C.L. Dudek and R.D. Huchingson, "Manual on Real-Time Motorist Information Displays", FHWA-IP-86-16, August 1986; (2) C.L. Dudek, "Guidelines on the Use of Changeable Message Signs", FHWA-TS-90-043, May 1991; and (3) C.L. Dudek, "Portable Changeable Message Signs at Work Zones", FHWA/TX-85/07+292-4, July 1984

Effective and Efficient Deployment of Dynamic Message Signs to Display Travel Time Information

Pages : 61
Book Description
Many transportation agencies have recommended travel times as the default messages on dynamic message signs (DMSs). This report presents analytical models to assist traffic engineers with effective operations of existing DMSs and deployment of new DMSs to display travel times on major freeways and arterials. More specifically, given the locations of existing DMSs, one of the proposed models determines the destinations for which to display travel times to maximize the benefit to motorists. Three extended models further improve the benefit by relocating DMSs, adding new ones to the current system or deploying a DMS system to a new area. The case study on the I-95/595 corridor in FDOT District 4 demonstrates the applicability of the proposed models. These models can be used in conjunction with other general guidelines provided by the federal and state agencies for optimal deployment and operations of DMS to display travel times.
