18 Operations Opportunities I-76 FROM EVERYDAY MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES TO CUTTING EDGE INNOVATION Variable Speed Limits Queue Warning Junction Control Dynamic Lane Assignment Ramp Metering Hard Shoulder Running Multimodal Transit Improvements Photo: istockphoto.com/digital Vision (dv ) 11

19 Variable Speed Limits and Queue Warning Capacity And Safety Enhancement Benefits of Operations Initiatives Maximize Capacity with Uniform Speeds Reduce Accidents Reduce Sudden Stopping Reduce Secondary Crashes 10

20 Dynamic Lane Assignments And Junction Control Capacity And Safety Enhancement Benefits of Operations Initiatives Maximize Throughput at Junctions With Other Expressways Serving the Higher Volumes Reduce Accidents Reduce Sudden Stopping Due to Hesitation 10

21 Ramp Metering Capacity And Safety Enhancement Benefits of Operations Initiatives Increase Vehicle Throughput during peak hours Increase Freeway Speeds Reduce Accidents at freeway entrance points Decrease fuel consumption/emissions 10

22 Hard Shoulder Running Increase Throughput 30%, typically 1,000 to 1,500 VPH Reduce bottleneck length and duration Reduced crashes due to reduced congestion Photos: istockphoto.com/trevor Smith ( ); top inset, istockphoto.com/mike Clarke ( ); bottom inset, istockphoto.com/banksphotos ( ) 13
