The 2010 version of the TIM Handbook includes the latest advances in TIM programs and practices across the country and offers insights into the latest innovations in TIM tools and technologies. The 2010 TIM Handbook also features a parallel, web-based version that may be conveniently bookmarked, browsed, or keyword-searched for quick reference. This version supersedes the Freeway Incident Management Handbook (published by FHWA in 1991) and the TIM Handbook (published by FHWA in 2000). Readers will find the following topic areas in this Handbook: Introduction: This chapter provides an overview of Traffic Incident Management and sets the context for the 2010 TIM Handbook update. TIM Strategic Program Elements: This chapter details the programmatic structure and institutional coordination necessary for a successful TIM program. TIM Tactical Program Elements: This chapter describes the full range of on-scene operations. TIM Support Program Elements: This chapter describes the communications and technical aspects of successful TIM programs. A quick resource guide titled, "Want to Know More," follows each chapter and direct readers to supplemental information associated with the specific chapter content.

Get a complete look into modern traffic engineering solutions Traffic Engineering Handbook, Seventh Edition is a newly revised text that builds upon the reputation as the go-to source of essential traffic engineering solutions that this book has maintained for the past 70 years. The updated content reflects changes in key industry standards, and shines a spotlight on the needs of all users, the design of context-sensitive roadways, and the development of more sustainable transportation solutions. Additionally, this resource features a new organizational structure that promotes a more functionally-driven, multimodal approach to planning, designing, and implementing transportation solutions. A branch of civil engineering, traffic engineering concerns the safe and efficient movement of people and goods along roadways. Traffic flow, road geometry, sidewalks, crosswalks, cycle facilities, shared lane markings, traffic signs, traffic lights, and more—all of these elements must be considered when designing public and private sector transportation solutions. Explore the fundamental concepts of traffic engineering as they relate to operation, design, and management Access updated content that reflects changes in key industry-leading resources, such as the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), AASSHTO Policy on Geometric Design, Highway Safety Manual (HSM), and Americans with Disabilities Act Understand the current state of the traffic engineering field Leverage revised information that homes in on the key topics most relevant to traffic engineering in today's world, such as context-sensitive roadways and sustainable transportation solutions Traffic Engineering Handbook, Seventh Edition is an essential text for public and private sector transportation practitioners, transportation decision makers, public officials, and even upper-level undergraduate and graduate students who are studying transportation engineering.
