This research investigated the relationships between traffic operating characteristics and environmental factors such as fuel consumption, hydrocarbon emissions, carbon monoxide emissions, and nitrogen oxide emissions. A methodology was developed to analyze existing before and after data from traffic improvements projects that have been implemented. The change in fuel consumption was quantified and guidelines were developed to help predict energy benefits from implementing future freeway bottleneck improvements.
