Managed Lanes: Current Status and Future Opportunities,
University Transportation Center for Alabama  The objective of
the project is to develop a better understanding of managed
lanes and their potential to address congestion issues in urban
settings. Specifically, the project will:    1. Identify and
address key  issues related to planning, implementation, and
operation of managed lanes;   2. Utilize traffic analysis tools
(micro simulation, dynamic traffic assignment, etc.) to predict
the impact of managed lanes strategies on traffic operations in
the Birmingham area; and   3. Conduct technology transfer
activities to advance the implementation of managed lanes as a
strategy to enhance traffic management and congestions
mitigation.     trans_managed lanes
