| Abstract | FHWA and the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Volpe Center are developing a work zone car-following model and simulation software that interfaces with existing microsimulation tools, enabling more accurate simulation of car-following through freeway work zones. The purpose of this project is to provide engineers and planners at transportation agencies and in private industry with a tool that can better predict the operational impacts of freeway work zones. |
