Accommodating traffic during the reconstruction of heavily traveled urban freeways is a challenging problem. The report provides guidelines for analyzing the potential corridor-wide travel impacts of urban freeway reconstruction projects and developing a corridor traffic management plan to mitigate those impacts. The focus is on the impact of a reconstruction project on traffic patterns and conditions in the freeway corridor and on the traffic management techniques that might be incorporated into a corridor traffic management plan to mitigate the adverse impacts. A catalog of the traffic-control options and traffic management techniques that might be incorporated in the plan is presented. A corridor analysis methodology is outlined for identifying, evaluating, and selecting those options and techniques that would be appropriate and effective for a particular project. Examples from a demonstration study in which the methodology was applied to the US-59 Southwest Freeway reconstruction project are presented to illustrate the use of the methodology.
