Abstract EN
Reliability is one of the main metrics of transport system efficiency and quality of service.
For both travelers and transport management organizations, the high variance of road travel times has become a problem.
Reliability has been identified as one of the main areas of interest of the Strategic Highway Research Plan II.
In order to evaluate congestion and unexpected changes in travel time, reliability metrics are increasingly used.
GPS devices provide for exact assessment of travel time for each connection along the routes used for this research.
(14 Ramadan arterial street, Al-Karada arterial street and Damascus arterial street).
A GPS-equipped instrumented car was used to gather 50 test runs at peak and off peak times.
At peak and off peak hours, 50 test runs were obtained using a GPS-equipped instrumented car.
Raising the buffer time index results in inferior conditions for reliability.
A buffer index of AL- Karada street was created about 53% and 30% for Damascus street and finally for 14 Ramadan street which present a 29% buffer index for north direction.
As for its southern direction 14 Ramadan street created a buffer index of about 65% and 33% for AL- Karada street and finally for Damascus street which present a 29% buffer index.
In addition, travel time index for (14 Ramadan street, AL- Karada street and Damascus street) respectively is about 2.8 % , 3.3% and 2.6% for north direction, as for its southern direction the travel time index is obtained for (14 Ramadan street, AL- Karada street and Damascus street) respectively were a 3% , 3.7% , and 2.5% .
Finally, the 95% percentile travel time for observed three selected routes in this study, the extra delay was felt on each route (1627, 2212, and 1192) sec.
for (14 Ramadan street, AL- Karada street and Damascus street) for north direction, as for its southern direction the extra delay that perceived on each route (2221, 2132, and 975) sec.
