Evaluation of Environmental Impacts of Traffic Management and Control Measures

Abstract:

This paper reported an evaluation study of CIVITAS II measures at 12 European cities from the perspective of environmental impacts. Subsets of comparable traffic management and control measures have been created and their environmental impacts evaluated using the indicators of fuel savings and emission reductions. The environmental impacts of these traffic management measures were focused in this paper, and it is found that some of the traffic management measures have positive effect on the environment.
