论文摘要
规划学者已经确定了将单向街道转换为双向的经济,安全和社会利益。关于转换如何影响行驶的车辆距离的知之甚少 - 在舰队自动化,电气化和乘车车时代的相关性越来越大。我们在加利福尼亚州的旧金山模拟了这种conversion依。我们发现,其当前的街道网络的平均城市内旅行比所有双向街道的长约1.7%,相当于2700万公里的年度盈余旅行。随着运输技术的发展,规划人员必须考虑不同的网络效率方面,以使本地政策和街头设计与可持续性和其他社会目标保持一致。
Planning scholars have identified economic, safety, and social benefits of converting one-way streets to two-way. Less is known about how conversions could impact vehicular distances traveled - of growing relevance in an era of fleet automation, electrification, and ride-hailing. We simulate such a conversion in San Francisco, California. We find that its current street network's average intra-city trip is about 1.7% longer than it would be with all two-way streets, corresponding to 27 million kilometers of annual surplus travel. As transportation technologies evolve, planners must consider different facets of network efficiency to align local policy and street design with sustainability and other societal goals.
