The objective of this study was to develop a methodology for assessing the impact of road construction that could be used to (a) predict the network-level impact of road construction projects, (b) identify critical roadway segments and corridors in which the impacts of construction are expected to be the most severe, and (c) compare alternative construction scenarios and schedules. Dynamic traffic assignment formed the basis of an approach to assess the regional impact of road construction and compare alternative construction schedule scenarios. The application of the model was illustrated with the use of a hypothetical case of two road construction projects in the roadway system of El Paso, Texas.
