الملخص الإنجليزي

A ramp-freeway junction are almost designed to allowed high-speed and high capacity merging and diverging with the minimum disruption to the adjacent traffic.

One source of conflict on freeway weaving section, when the merge and diverge is short require vehicle to entering or exiting the freeway to execute it need one or more lane changes.

The operational analysis of weaving, merging and diverging of ramp-junction in freeway are applicable at multilane highway.

The objective of study is evaluation and improvement of the existing ramp and ramp junction in urban and suburban area.

This study conducted in Amman-Jordan for two cloverleaf interchanges.

The first one is located in urban area and other one is located in suburban area.

Two types of analysis are conducted, the weaving and ramp-junction analysis using highway capacity manual 2010 (HCM2010) methodologies.

The highway capacity software program (HCS2010) is applied for analysis and improvement of the two selected cloverleaf interchanges as a case study.

The result of the analysis for the existing condition shows that both interchanges are operating at LOS F for the weaving area.

The improvement results for short-term and medium-term for the weaving area, merging and diverging of the ramp-junction for both interchanges will operate at LOS D or LOS C.

Keyword: freeway facilities, multi-lane highway, ramp and ramp-junction, weaving area, merging and diverging area, HCM2010 methodology, HCS2010 software.
