could not use the narrow paths and trails used by pack
animals, and early roads were soon built to
accommodate the larger transportation vehicles
D. THE ROMANS
were the major road builders in the ancient world. The Romans road network
reached a total of about 50,000 miles (80,000 km), with FEEDER road
branching out from the main highways. It was costly because its deep
foundation, formed by layer after heavy stones, was necessary to make roads
that would carry heavy traffic for many years.
13
E. JOHN L. MACADAM
did not abandon the theory of feeder road building and
perfected the macadamized road in England about 1815
F. AFTER THE FALL OF THE ROMANS

in the 5th century, land haulage (or colonizing foreign lands by European
kingdoms and countries) generally declined because highways suffered from
inadequate maintenance

LESSON #3: FUNDAMENTALS OF
TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
• What is TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT?

•is the application of the processes and skills in planning, organizing, staffing,
directing. coordinating, and budgeting to traffic affairs?
•Also refers to activities undertaken by a highway transportation agency to
improve roadway system safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of both providers
and consumers of transportation services

Types of Traffic Management;
1. Traditional traffic engineering tools or devices used to regulate or
control traffic such as traffic lights, traffic signals, or pavement
markings, traffic islands, and other devices that could control or direct
the flow of traffic.
2. Advanced technology like the Intelligent Transportation System
(ITS). Examples are the installation of road sensors for emergency
cars, global positioning devices on motor vehicles, and road sensors
attached to traffic signal lights.
WHY IS TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IS
NECESSARY?
In every traffic management, three elements are necessary to be

considered.
1. Road Traffic System

2. Road Users
3. Road Enforcement
