Abstract:
This report documents the results of the May 1994 traffic data collection efforts during the fourth year of the US-75 North Central Expressway reconstruction project south of the I-635 LBJ Freeway. Traffic conditions and patterns have been monitored during October 1989 and May 1990 (before construction) and each October and May since October 1990 (during the four years of teh construction project). An additional study was conducted in March 1994 to evaluate the potential traffic impacts of US-75 North Central Expressway median lane closure between McCommas and Woodall Rodgers Freeway. The traffic conditions prior to construction and during the first three and one-half years of construction were documented in previous reports. The traffic monitoring efforts involved traffic data collection and an automobile users' survey. The traffic data collection included screen line traffic volume counts, vehicle occupancy and classification counts, and travel time runs. The automobile users' survey results for May 1994 are documented in a separate report. Overall, the May 1994 results indicate that traffic patterns and conditions in the US-75 North Central Expressway corridor were affected by lane closures in the S-2 section of the construction project.
