"congested road" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
It is commonly used to describe a road that is heavily crowded with vehicles and experiencing slow-moving or stopped traffic. Example: "The morning commute was delayed due to a congested road caused by an accident on the highway."
Taking the freight example, rail is well placed to offer the long-distance trunk haul for consumer as well as bulk cargoes because each freight train can remove up to 130 HGVs from our congested road network, thus reducing congestion, collisions and pollution.
The economic rationale for this pricing scheme is based on the externalities or social costs of road transport, such as air pollution, noise, traffic accidents, environmental and urban deterioration, and the extra costs and delays imposed by traffic congestion upon other drivers when additional users enter a congested road.
IT IS a short drive on a congested road from Pretoria, South Africa's political capital, to Johannesburg, its commercial one.
Travelers' route adjustment behaviors in a congested road traffic network are acknowledged as a dynamic game process between them.
The brightly coloured writing is clearly visible to the tens of thousands of motorists speeding or, depending on the time of day, creeping along the loud, congested road.
A third touchy issue is the extremely congested road leading to the ferry docks and a pedestrian tunnel to the airport that is now under construction.
Congested road-use pricing and parking pricing are two solutions to traffic congestions.
This paper presents a joint optimization model of congested road-use pricing and capacity using the optimal control theory in disequilibrium traffic networks with elastic demand.
Through setting reasonable congested road-use pricing and parking pricing of P&R system, more private car travelers will be attracted by P&R trip mode, which will result in the reduction of cars entering city central areas and the relief of traffic congestions.
Based on the above work, considering maximizing total user benefit (TUB) as upper planning objective and the user equilibrium model based on combined trip network under elastic demand as lower planning, the bi-level planning of congested road-use pricing and parking pricing was developed, and the heuristic solution algorithm to this bi-level planning was designed.
Congested roads will give way to parks and pedestrian plazas.
