Effect of width and boundary conditions on meeting maneuvers on two-way separated cycle tracks

García García, Alfredo; Agustín Gómez, Fernando; Llorca García, Carlos; Angel-Domenech, Antonio (Elsevier, 2015)

Cycle track design guidelines are rarely based on scientific studies. In the case of off-road two-way cycle tracks, a minimum width must facilitate both passing and meeting maneuvers, being meeting maneuvers the most ...
Estudio de la funcionalidad del tráfico en carreteras 2+1 mediante microsimulación. Aplicación a la CV-405 entre los PK 4+000 y 13+000 (T.M. de Torrent y T.M. de Montserrat, Valencia)

Rodríguez Martínez, Mercedes (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2016-10-28)

[EN] 2+1 roads come up as an alternative to the 2+2 unfolded ways to improve the functionality of conventional road traffic without building a fourth lane. The main feature of this type of road is the presence of a third ...
Estudio del comportamiento del conductor para el análisis de la mejora de la capacidad y funcionalidad de glorietas con flujos de tráfico descompensados mediante un sistema de dosificación de incorporaciones

Martín Gasulla, María Dolores (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-11-19)

[ES] El comportamiento del conductor en una glorieta se caracteriza, principalmente, por medio de la decisión de entrar en el anillo dado un determinado flujo de tráfico en su interior (denominado, flujo de conflicto). ...
