- W619643228 abstract "This paper describes the operation of the Queen Elizabeth II road bridge across the Thames at Dartford, east of London, since its opening in Autumn 1991. Although regular closures due to bad weather have not been required, considerable experience has been gained of traffic control measures in a wide variety of wind, accident and maintenance scenarios. The systems put into place have proved effective, and the provision of very accurate gust wind forecasts, twice a day, has greatly assisted the bridge's safe and efficient operation. There is a sophisticated traffic management system at the Dartford crossing, which normally uses the bridge for north-south traffic and two tunnels for south-north traffic. The traffic management system and the crossing's associated link roads facilitate the diversion of traffic from bridge to tunnel, if the bridge needs to be wholly or partly closed due to high winds. Wind forecasts and ice forecasts are provided by the London Weather Centre, and the former are transmitted to the crossing via a modem link. Restrictions due to high winds are put into effect in four successive stages, which come into effect at successively higher gust speeds. Ice treatments can be put into effect very rapidly. For the covering abstract see IRRD 869077." @default.
