Development of a Short Course: Introduction to the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual for the Alabama Department of Transportation
The Highway Capacity Manual-2000 (HCM2000) is the worlds most authoritative document on this topic. Elementary concepts of highway capacity have been in use for over 50 years, but during the past 15 or so years extensive research has been directed towards perfecting analytical tools to analyze capacity for multiple transportation facilities and situations. Consequently, the HCM2000 contains 1100 pages and 31 chapters, organized into five separate parts. It represents a concentrated, multi-agency effort by organizations like the Transportation Research Board, the Federal Highway Administration, the American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials, and others. This project developed a one-day short course on the HCM2000 for the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT). The short course discussed the general content of the HCM2000, identified changes incorporated into this edition, and reviewed capacity procedures for several situations. The University Transportation Center for Alabama taught the course six times to 178 individuals at four ALDOT Division offices across the State (Birmingham, Guntersville, Mobile, and Montgomery) in the Spring and Summer of 2002.
