Description

The fifth edition of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM2010), which updates HCM2000, will significantly update how engineers and planners assess the traffic and environmental effects of highway projects: It is the first HCM to provide an integrated multimodal approach to the analysis and evaluation of urban streets from the points of view of automobile drivers, transit passengers, bicyclists, and pedestrians; It is the first to address the proper application of micro-simulation analysis and the evaluation of those results; It is the first to discuss active traffic management in relation to both demand and capacity; and It is the first to provide specific tools and generalized service volume tables, to assist planners in quickly sizing future facilities.The HCM 2010 has been split into:Volume 1 – Concepts;Volume 2 - Uninterrupted Flow;Volume 3 - Interrupted Flow
