Traffic operations professionals are invited to a TRB webinar on Thursday, December 5, 2019, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET. This webinar will present an overview of how the new and updated methods in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) may be used to design alternative intersections and corridors.
The updated HCM is now available from TRB. The HCM serves as a fundamental reference on concepts, performance measures, and analysis techniques for evaluating the multimodal operation of streets, highways, freeways, and off-street pathways. The most recent changes are designed to keep the manual in step with its users’ needs and present times.
This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Highway Capacity and Quality of Service. It is the final in a series of webinars about the HCM. The previous webinars were held on on June 10, 2019; July 29, 2019; August 22, 2019; October 23, 2019; and November 14, 2019.
