Internationally, significant attention is given to transport sustainability including planning, design, construction, evaluation, safety and durability of the road system. The 4th International Gulf Conference on Roads: Efficient Transportation and Pavement Systems - Characterization, Mechanisms, Simulation, and Modeling, hosted by the University of Qatar, November 2008, provided a forum for discussions of recent developments and research results and needs on transportation network optimization, traffic management, transportation safety, and pavement design, analysis, material characterization, modeling, and rehabilitation techniques. This book is a collection of 79 fully refereed papers and six keynote lectures from the conference, and includes contributions on a variety of topics:     Highway Design and Transportation Planning   Transportation Network and Management System   Traffic Characteristics and Analysis   Traffic and Transit Signal Control   Traffic Simulation, Safety, and Management   Advances in Road Safety Engineering  Road Accident Analysis and Prediction   Work Zone Lane Closures and Dynamic Merging   Flexible Pavement Design, Analysis, and Evaluation   Pavement Maintenance and Management   Binder and Emulsion Characterization - Effect of Binder, Modified Binder, and Fillers on HMA   HMA Testing and Properties   Foamed and HMA Recycling   Impact of Geogrids on Pavement Performance   Research, Development, and Standardizations   Case Studies
