Dynamic signage evaluation using a driving simulator (R-7864)

This project targets the development of national guidelines for the design of Variable Message Signs (VMS) that can be applied in urban areas to the following categories of road/traffic situations; (1) Congestion, (2) Incidents, (3) Road Works and (4) Dynamic Traffic Management. It will be achieved through the identification of the most effective designs of messages in VMSs (static and dynamic) by studying and modelling driver's reaction considering the wide diversity of driver population in the State of Qatar.
