Congested Corridor Improvement
Program (CCIP)
PENNDOT Districts 3-0, 4-0
Project Location:
SR 0015 (Lycoming County), SR 0011 (Columbia County),
SR 0029 (Wyoming County)
Project Description:
Corridor studies, traffic simulation modeling, alternative analysis
Engineering Activities:
Grove Miller Engineering, Inc. was selected by PENNDOT’s Bureau
of Highway Safety and Traffic Engineering as the prime consultant
for the CCIP projects in PENNDOT Districts 3-0 and 4-0. The ultimate
goal of the CCIP was to reduce peak hour travel time on the improved
corridor by 20 percent. Traffic engineering activities included
collecting traffic data including turning movement counts, automatic
traffic recorder counts and travel time and delay studies; developing
future design year traffic projections, analyzing future design
year traffic demands, conducting accident analyses, preparing traffic
simulation modeling, recommending preliminary and preferred alternatives
including intersection, corridor and traffic control improvements;
performing benefit-cost ratio evaluations, presenting study report
results and recommendations to municipal, county and state officials,
and documenting findings in technical memoranda. A total of fifteen
(15) intersections along the three (3) corridors were analyzed.
