This compendium contains reports on a wide variety of transportation research. The reports document planning research in the investigation of life-cycle variables in estimating trip rates; traffic operations research addressing the effects of lead length on inductive loop detectors and the investigation of the heights of vehicle fleet taillights and headlights as parameters to be incorporated in roadway design; materials research on the effects of fiber and polymer modifications on the fatigue life of asphalt pavement; multi-modal research into the travel time reliability of high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes and the air quality and fuel consumption benefits that can be realized by implementing HOV facilities; safety investigation of limited sight distance at railroad-highway grade crossings; and maintenance research directed toward the development of cost-effective means of determining the functional condition of signs and markings along highways in Texas.
