FOUR MAJOR DIMENSIONS OF CONGESTION

• Intensity (How bad?)• Duration (How long?)• Extent (How far?)• Variability (How does

it change?)

TWO TYPES OF CONGESTION

10

Recurring Demand exceeds capacity System choke points Predictable Reliability

Non-recurring Incidents Work zones Weather Can be predictable (to an extent)
