SWIFT Contract Number 3000076222

Project Name Loop and Length Based Classification Pooled Fund

Project Number (if applicable) 95029

Summarize purpose of the contract, including why it was necessary: Vehicle classification data are important for transportation agencies in a wide range of applications, from freight, to pavement engineering, to safety, to cost allocation. Axle-based vehicle classification has been used for two decades but length-based vehicle classification is newer. The capabilities, limitations, and issues involved with collecting length-based vehicle classification (LBVC) data need to be researched. Agencies need to know how to properly install and calibrate the LBVC installations. LBVC uses traditional loops and other technologies. Agencies need to know the pros and cons of different technologies to best utilize their resources. The proper length bins to aggregate LBVC data need to be established.
