Transport Science on Highways and Streets

The purpose of the course is to introduce fundamentals on road traffic flow science and traffic engineering including traffic flow fundamentals, queuing theory, highway capacity and geometric design/network design, intersection control, Intelligent Transport Systems and its applications.
Understand the nature of traffic flow including traffic congestion, traffic accident risk, and influence on general social activities including economy. Traffic engineering measures to alleviate negative impacts to the society should be systematically understood, including highway & street geometric design, traffic flow management and control, and utilization of emerging technologies including Intelligent Transport Systems.
