Traffic Control Measures for Crisis Relocation.

Abstract

This report addresses the specific traffic control problems likely to arise under crisis relocation conditions, investigates control options designed to alleviate these problems, and develops guidance for public safety agencies charged with maintaining orderly traffic flows during evacuations. Potentially useful traffic control procedures are analyzed through a combination of mathematical analysis, planning reviews, and intensive interviews with planners and public safety personnel experienced in controlling significant volumes of traffic under both normal and emergency conditions.
