General information:

Category	Theoretical-methodological
Scientific or art field	Traffic Planning, Regulation and Safety
Interdisciplinary	No
ECTS	5

Educational goal:

Acquisition of new and previously acquired knowledge of the application procedures and evaluation of projects in the field of traffic engineering. Training students to implement the functional, investment, economic and environmental evaluation procedures in the selection of optimal variations of traffic infrastructure.

Educational outcome:

Training students to use modern tools of engineering analysis in the selection of optimal solutions. Apart from evaluation of functional characteristics, students are trained to analyze the needs and demands of the community concerned, i.e. its bodies or institutions, and the impact of the designed traffic construction on the environment, during the procedure of optimal solution selection. Acquired knowledge is applied in cases of space planning, planning and road design, investment planning and utilization of traffic infrastructure.

Course content:

The concept, subject and main tasks of functional evaluation. Functional evaluation of traffic conditions on roads, intersections and road facilities. Ecological evaluation and assessment of environmental impact. Economic evaluation. Investment evaluation. Multicriteria evaluation. Application of modern methods of the evaluation.

Teaching methods:

Lectures, auditory and calculation exercises. This course provides the preparation of the seminar paper. By passing tests, students are released of taking practical-calculation part of the exam.
