abstract="This paper describes the development and application of a dense network-type of model, with emphasis on the assessment of traffic management strategies in a residential neighborhood. The MICRO-ASSIGNMENT model was selected for use in this study after extensive literature review and operational experience. The model input and output were modified and fuel computation added. The model was applied to the College Terrace residential neighborhood area of Palo Alto, California. The no-control base condition and five transportation-system-management-type neighborhood strategies were evaluated. The strategies included interior traffic restraint measures and improvement of surrounding arterials. The selected strategies were compared with the no-control base condition. The assessment was on the basis of comparative flows, travel times, and fuel consumption rates on individual links and vehicle miles, vehicle hours, and fuel consumption for residential and arterial street subsystems. This assessment, supported by extensive literature review, served as the basis for developing initial policy guidelines for traffic management strategies in residential neighborhoods.<p />",
