Langdurige leegstand van kantoorgebouwen is maatschappelijk en economisch onge-wenst. Herbestemming naar woonfuncties kan een goede oplossing zijn. Onderzoek van de Technische Universiteit Delft wijst uit, dat de overheid en marktpartijen de noodzaak tot stimulering van herbestemming onderschrijven. Integrale gebiedsontwikkeling, fis-cale...

Al enkele jaren is er op ruime schaal sprake van structurele leegstand in kantoorgebouwen. In 1996 heeft de kantorenmarkt zich hersteld en is de vraag fors toegenomen. Dit herstel heeft zich in 1997 met name doorgezet in het midden- en topsegment. In diverse deelmarkten verbeteren de huurprijzen en neemt de leegstand af. Een groot deel van de...

Much of the delay in transport networks is caused by incidents. Many indicators are developed to determine vulnerable parts of a network without simulating the network flows with an incident on each of the links. This paper lists indicators proposed in literature and cross compares them. Their values for all links on three networks of different...

Robustness of a network is a main objective for road network managers these days, and has therefore become an important study area for transportation scientists. This article discusses one specific aspect in assessing road network robustness: the consequences of the closure of a link. These spillback effects have been examined in a dedicated...

Insight into traffic flow characteristics is often gained using local measurements. To determine macroscopic flow characteristics, time aggregation of microscopic information is required.<br/><br/>Usually, a data collection system stores values averaged over time. However, it is well known that a time mean average overestimates the influence of...

The delay caused by an incident depends on many variables. This paper introduces an analytical expression for the delay, describing the location and length of the queue by shockwave theory. As long as the congestion remains on the same link, delay is proportional to the square of the duration, even in case the outflow is reduced by a junction...

Much of the delays on road networks are caused by incidents. This is partially caused by blockage or closure of lanes, but also by the change of driving behaviour in the remaining lanes. This contribution analyses traffic flow conditions near an incident both microscopically and macroscopically. A theory is proposed to describe drivers’...

Hoe kwetsbaar onze verkeersinfrastructuur is, blijkt wel bij exceptionele omstandigheden. Eén incident (calamiteit of ongeval) en er ontstaat een verkeersinfarct. Kan dit worden voorkomen? Zo ja, hoe dan? Zijn er bruikbare modellen om effecten in te schatten? En hoe staat het met de human factor, welhaast in elke keten de meest kwetsbare schakel...

Incidents cause a large part of the delays in road networks. This is caused by a decrease of the capacity at the incident site. A detailed knowledge of the queue discharge rate can improve for instance the traffic prediction and thereby improve delay information or routing advice. Therefore, this study determines the queue discharge rate for...

Incidents cause a large part of the congestion on the road. This PhD study describes how people change their behaviour when facing an incident situation. It is found that car-following behaviour changes and drivers react slower on their predecessors. Furthermore, it is found that drivers change their route when facing unexpected delay caused by...

The duration of incidents is a stochastic variable with a variation spread. This chapter analyzes the consequences of this stochastic nature of the duration in terms of delay. It uses shockwave theory to describe traffic states. As opposed to a point queue model, the head and the tail of the queue are separately modeled and in this way the...

Literature proposes link-based indicators as predictors of the delay caused by a blockade on a particular link. This paper cross-compares these indicators and compares them with the result of a full simulation. The indicators predict different links to be vulnerable. Furthermore, the indicators do not provide a good indication of the delay of a...

It is computationally expensive to find out where vulnerable parts in a network are. In literature a variety of methods were introduced that use relatively simple selection criteria (measured in real-life or calculated in a traffic simulator) to pre-determine the seriousness of the delays caused by the blocking of that link and thereafter...

This paper investigates to what extent travellers change their route when faced with unexpected traffic situation. To this end, traffic data from days with serious incidents are analysed in this contribution. The flows retrieved from loop detectors on the routes past the incident and on alternative routes are compared with the same values on...

With current techniques, traffic monitoring and control is a data intensive process. Network control on a higher level, using high level variables, can make this process less data demanding. The macroscopic fundamental diagram relates accumulation, i.e. the number of vehicles in an area, to the network performance, but only holds for situations...

An excess number of vehicles in a traffic network will reduce traffic performance. This reduction can be avoided by traffic management. In particular, traffic can be routed such that the bottlenecks are not oversaturated. The macroscopic fundamental diagram provides the relation between the number of vehicles and the network performance. One can...
