Traffic Signal Performance Measures Using Crowd-Sourced Data
Traffic signal performance measures have historically been more difficult to quantify than other mobility measures, but new datasets obtained from crowdsourced data have improved the ability of users to quantify traffic signal performance measures at statewide, urban area, and corridor levels without the installation and maintenance costs of detection and enhanced signal system equipment beyond…
