Performance indicators and measures for the place function of state highways and arterial roads in urban contexts

摘要: Roads have a link function based on movement, and place being destination in their own right. The transport industry has effective reliable measures of function, but an unclear definition no or consistent means assessment. This research involved the identification potential indicators to measure performance state highways urban arterial roads. A assessment framework was developed which includes quantitative transportation-specific place. Three case study streets were assessed using this framework. Their scores ranged from +5 -34 out possible range +/- 100. shows promise as tool understand existing relative within network, so that need for more in-depth qualitative can be assessed. It would benefit refinement application wider variety sites. is recommended data collection extended include not currently readily available; analysis user perceptions overall used conjunction with collection; its findings discussed industry.
